Chapter 203 Banquet Invitation
Chapter 203 Banquet Invitation
Zhang Sanmu saw Yun Fuling frowning and thinking, so he didn't say anything to disturb her.
Hearing Yun Fuling's question, he immediately replied:
"I don't know that, but they just bought a garden in the northern suburbs a few days ago. The previous owner of the garden was a wealthy businessman from Jiangnan. He sold the garden because of some business problems and needed funds."
"Yun Qingmu and his men have been meeting in that garden quite often these days, and there are also craftsmen coming in and out of the garden."
"I wonder if the garden is related to the business they are going to form a partnership with?"
"However, Yun Qingmu took 10,000 taels of silver from his family, saying it was capital for his business."
Yun Fuling's brows furrowed even deeper.
Ten thousand taels is not a small amount.
And this was just the capital contributed by Yun Qingmu alone.
Since it is a partnership, Prince Shun and his men must also contribute money and effort.
From this point of view, the investment in this business must be not small, at least more than ten thousand taels.
But this business idea of not buying a popular shop in the downtown area but instead buying a garden in a deserted mountain in the suburbs is really a bit strange.
Could it be that the items sold in this business are not ordinary items sold in the streets?
Yun Fuling couldn't figure out what was going on for a moment, so she could only ask Zhang Sanmu to continue to inquire.
If Yun Qingmu only cooperated with others in business to make some money, and it did not cause any trouble to Yun Fuling, then Yun Fuling would not bother to care about his trivial matters.
After hearing what Yun Fuling said, she temporarily put the matter of Yun Qingmu aside and instead focused all her attention on the pharmacy.
Yun Fuling had previously customized a batch of wooden racks, as well as some jars for boiling medicine and other utensils.
Now that she has the manpower and supplies, she can finally open her pharmacy.
Yun Fuling divided the sixty people she bought into ten groups, with six people in each group.
There are different steps in pill making, and Yun Fuling breaks down all of them.
Each group is responsible for one process.
In this way, work efficiency can be improved and the method of making pills can be kept confidential to the greatest extent.
Yun Fuling was so busy with the affairs of the pharmacy that she had no idea that the story of her cesarean section was being spread like a miracle, and people were almost praising her as the reincarnation of a deity.
Even though there were many doubts and denials before, it was a fact that Madam Chu was safe and sound, and that Yun Fuling had delivered twins, a boy and a girl, by cesarean section.
Faced with such facts, the voices of doubt disappeared in an instant, leaving only admiration and praise.
At the General's Mansion, visitors came in wave after wave, in an endless stream, much more than the crowd that came to watch the excitement on the day of the caesarean section.
Everyone wanted to see with their own eyes that Madam Chu was still alive after having a caesarean section.
After all, no matter how detailed the rumors outside are, they are not as real as seeing it with your own eyes.
Fortunately, Yun Fuling had given instructions in advance, and the Chu family also strictly followed the medical instructions left by Yun Fuling, not daring to be careless in the slightest.
After all, the long wound on Madam Chu’s stomach has not healed yet.
If this affects the healing of the wound, it will be no joke.
Yun Fuling was worried that the Chu family would not take her words seriously and that the medical instructions she left behind would be implemented at a discount, so she deliberately made the consequences sound more serious.
When the Chu family heard this, they immediately became very alert and strictly followed Yun Fuling's instructions without any negligence.
Therefore, the visitors who came to visit the Chu family, except for some people who had close relations with the Chu family, washed their faces and hands according to Yun Fuling's requirements, changed into clean clothes, and entered the delivery room to meet Mrs. Chu.
The rest of the people basically met Mrs. Chu in the main courtyard and were then politely sent away.
Those who entered the delivery room and saw the lively Madam Chu, after returning, could not help but use this as a topic of conversation and talked about it vividly with others.
Soon the news spread from one person to ten people, and from ten to a hundred people, and the news became even more widespread.
Because Madam Chu had just undergone a caesarean section and needed to rest, she should not be disturbed in the near future. Since everyone could not see Madam Chu, they turned their attention to Yun Fuling.
After all, it was a divine hand that could perform a caesarean section on a woman and keep her alive.
However, Yun Fuling has been focusing on the pharmacy these days.
The pharmacy was located in the mansion of Marquis Jichun. Once the door was closed, the commotion outside could not disturb her at all.
So there were countless noble ladies who wanted to meet Yun Fuling, but couldn't even find Yun Fuling.
On this day, Yun Fuling finally sorted out things at the pharmacy, and everything was back on track.
Only then did she pack up and return to Prince Yi's Mansion.
After bathing, Yaoguang came in with a thick stack of notes.
"Princess, this is what Butler Yuan asked me to deliver. These are invitations from various families inviting you to a banquet."
Because Yun Fuling had been concentrating on the affairs of the pharmacy these days, she had given instructions in advance that no one should disturb her unless it was an emergency.
These posts were all about ordinary banquets and were not important, so Butler Yuan temporarily suppressed them and did not disturb Yun Fuling.
Now that Yun Fuling is back, it is natural to report it.
Yun Fuling took the stack of invitations, flipped through them briefly, and found that they were all invitations to flower-viewing banquets, birthday parties, poetry gatherings, tea parties, etc.
The women in the harem of this era had little entertainment, so they liked to hold a party from time to time and invite relatives and friends to get together and have fun.
This way you can kill time and have some fun.
At the same time, they can also use the name of banquets to socialize and conduct ladies' diplomacy.
Even the search for marriage partners for one's children was often done through these banquets.
So these seemingly ordinary banquets have extraordinary significance for the women in the harem.
Although Yun Fuling doesn't like these boring social interactions, she has been busy treating patients or making medicine recently. It's time for her to relax and go out for a walk.
Besides, as Princess Yi, she also needs to appear occasionally to show her presence.
So that others would know that Xiao Jingyi not only did not lose face by marrying her, but made a huge profit instead.
Yun Fuling flipped through the posts, picked out three, and handed them to Yaoguang, saying:
"Please reply to this post for me. I will attend these three banquets."
When Yaoguang heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
I thought the princess hated these social events the most, but I didn't expect that she would take the initiative to attend them today, and three of them!
However, Yaoguang did not say much, but directly took the post and responded.
She flipped open the post and took a look.
Yun Fuling accepted three invitations, one was to Lady Changle's flower-viewing party, and one was to the birthday party of the eldest prince's wife.
There is another one, which is the birthday banquet of the old lady of the Duke of Weiguo’s Mansion.
The relationship between these three families and Prince Yi’s Palace is very delicate!
Yaoguang didn’t know whether Yun Fuling chose these three families to attend the banquet just casually or if there was some other meaning behind it.
