Novel Bin Chapter 246 - 246 Are You Free That Day?
“Everything is settled?” Lu Ze reached out and helped Lin Suisui, who was close to him, into his courtyard.
Lu Ze had been paying attention to how mindful Lin Suisui was to Du Yue’e and her brother since the day they moved in.
However, there wasn’t much he could help with this matter.
After all, the little girl in front of him had always had her own way of doing things. She couldn’t be easily dismissed with money!
Seeing that she was smiling when she came over, Lu Ze knew that she probably already had a solution to this matter.
“Yes.” Lin Suisui nodded and smiled as she told Lu Ze about her conversation with Du Yue’er. Then, she said, “It’s already very good that she’s willing to take the first step! Let’s take things slow.”
“Alright. Did Duke Huai Yang’s ministry send someone over today?” Lu Ze nodded. He was naturally relieved by her arrangements, so he changed the topic to the unsolved trouble.
“Someone came and said that he wanted me to go over there.” At the mention of what had happened in the morning, Lin Suisui wanted to vent her anger. She recounted Duke Huai Yang’s ministry’s incident to Lu Ze. Then, she said, “I heard that after they caused a commotion in the front courtyard for a while, Su Le went over and kicked them out!
It’s said that the old consort didn’t even get to enter the General’s residence, but she’s quite cocky towards us!
I told the person who came to go back and help me pass a message. They have to treat me the same way their old consort treats Pei Zhaoyue!
I think that’s already too polite! After all, I didn’t even give in to the wife of the general who stabilizes the north!”
“It’s fine. If they still don’t know the rules the next time they come over, get Su Le to break their legs and throw them out!”
Lu Ze and Lin Suisui returned to their room. As Lu Ze listened to Lin Suisui’s recount along the way, his expression didn’t change, but his response was ruthless.
“By the way, there’s something I need your help with.” After Lin Suisui entered the room, she saw Lu Ze walk to the bed to pick up the medical books she had been checking. Then, she remembered her previous plan.
“What?” Lu Ze looked up at Lin Suisui.
“I’ve asked Doctor Luo these past two days. We have very few herbs in the north, and even the pharmacy at the goods station is not very well-equipped. If we want to open both pharmacies after spring, we have to prepare these herbs in advance.
I thought about how the Sun family had a caravan previously.
If we ask them to buy herbs, when their caravan returns to Cloud Mountain City next spring, they can bring the herbs over!
However, the Sun family’s shop is no longer in Cloud Mountain City, so you have to find someone to deliver this letter for me.”
As Lin Suisui spoke, she had already taken out the letter and the token the Sun family had left for her and handed it to Lu Ze.
Lu Ze didn’t reach out to take it. Instead, he looked at her and made another suggestion. “The Sun family also runs a herb business.
When I came out of the Huben Battalion today, I remembered what Dr. Luo had told me previously. The Huben Battalion is already in chaos! This time, I went over to investigate and found out that many of the herbs inside were of inferior quality!
Most of the pharmaceutical shops in the entire Cloud Mountain City are like this!
“I heard that the Sun family provided medicinal herbs to the military at the beginning. Add this to the letter and see if the Sun family’s head is interested in taking over this mess!”
“Alright.” Lin Suisui nodded and agreed without asking further.
After all, Lu Ze had definitely investigated before he suggested it.
“Madam, the wife of the general who stabilizes the north has sent an invitation to invite you to the plum garden in the suburbs in two days.” As the two of them spoke, they saw Bai Guo come in with a gilded invitation and bow as she reported to Lin Suisui.
“The wife of the general who stabilizes the north?!” Lin Suisui raised her eyebrows. Pei Zhaoyue had wanted to cut her into pieces previously, so why did she want to invite her over to admire the flowers now?!
“Yes, the wife of the general who stabilizes the north seems to have sent out many invitations this time. She probably sent invitations to all the women from prestigious families in Cloud Mountain City!”
Bai Guo nodded and quickly reported the information she had obtained to Lin Suisui.
“Will Duke Huai Yang’s mother go over that day?!” A thought flashed through Lin Suisui’s mind as she looked up and continued to ask Bai Guo.
Bai Guo nodded straightforwardly. “Yes. I heard that this invitation was sent by a trusted aide of the general’s wife. He even stayed in Duke Huai Yang’s ministry for about two hours before coming out.”
“Oh, the enemy of an enemy is a friend. These two have finally understood!”
At this point, no matter how stupid Lin Suisui was, she could understand what was going on.
What flower-admiring banquet? This was clearly a trap!
“They must have arranged a trap long ago and are waiting for me to jump into it!” Lin Suisui snorted and turned to look at Lu Ze, who was standing at the side. She reached out and tugged at his sleeve as she asked in a low voice, “Are you free that day?!”
“Yes.” Although he didn’t know why Lin Suisui asked this, Lu Ze still answered with certainty.
“Then, are there any other good places to admire the snow and flowers?!” Lin Suisui tilted her head and continued to ask Lu Ze with a smile.
“Of course.” Lu Ze smiled. He had a rough idea of what his wife was thinking.
“Alright, let’s go there to admire the snow and flowers that day! As for the banquet, they can do whatever they want. I won’t accompany them!”
Lin Suisui’s tone was carefree and smug. “I accepted the invitation, but no one said that I definitely have to go there!
However, with Pei Zhaoyue’s vengeful personality, after this invitation is sent over, she will definitely arrange for someone to monitor my movements and see if I will go!
At that time, we’ll set off early in the morning and let them think that I’m going to the banquet! Then, we’ll be a no-show!
I want to see if Pei Zhaoyue will become so angry that she faints again!”
