Chapter 131 The Young Widow
Chu Yan nodded, picked up the bowl and tested the temperature.Then, he drank the whole bowl of medicine in one go.

Jiang Wan could smell the bitter taste all the way away from Chu Yan, but seeing Chu Yan finish the drink without even frowning, she was really admirable.

She knew how bitter this ancient medicine was.Not to mention drinking it, even if it made her smell the medicine, she would feel uncomfortable.

Just like now, the whole room is filled with the bitter smell of medicine.

Jiang Wan held her breath for a while and said, "The contract is signed, and all the things are here. I'm leaving first. If you have anything to do, ask Du Juan to write to me."

Chu Yan was a little bit reluctant. After all, the two of them met each other, but they could think of their injuries.

After thinking about it, let her go back first, and then go to her after she recovers from her injuries.So he opened his mouth and said, "Alright, Jing Xuan, help me send Miss Jiang out."

After Jiang Wan and Chu Yan bid farewell, they followed Jing Xuan out.

After seeing Du Juan and Yinsuo, Jiang Wan said to Du Juan, "You stay here first, and then go back after they build the soap processing workshop."

"Yes, Miss." Du Juan replied.

After that, Jiang Wan went down the mountain with the silver lock and went home.

After Jiang Wan left, Chu Yan ordered people to go to the workshop.The location is chosen in the small mountain village on the side of Wubuya, which is the closest to Wubuya, and the management is more convenient.

Jiang Wan and Yinsuo rode back to Qingyuan City, where they rested for a day.The next day I went to the academy to see my uncle Jiang Chengshan.

Let the maids prepare two sets of seasonal clothes, and bring some Jiang Chengshan's favorite food.

There is also a Dragon Boat Festival gift for the masters of the academy, let the maids get ready, and take these things to the academy with Yinsuo.

Unexpectedly, just as he got off the carriage, he ran into Chen Lianheng.

Jiang Wan didn't intend to say hello to him, but Chen Lianheng didn't intend to let her go.

I saw Chen Lianheng came to Jiang Wan with a folding fan and said, "Hey! Isn't this Jiang Wan? Come here to give something to your uncle again?"

Jiang Wan ignored him, and walked forward with Yinsuo carrying a bamboo basket.

Seeing that Jiang Wan ignored him, Chen Lianheng didn't even give him a look.Feeling that her self-esteem had been hit, she wanted to grab Jiang Wan's arm angrily.

But was kicked out by Yinsuo, and then threatened condescendingly: "Where did you come from? If you dare to pester my lady again, I will break your hands."

When Chen Lianheng heard that he was going to break his hand, he quickly retracted it in fright.He still wants to be an official in the future!What can I do if I break my hand.

Seeing his frightened look, Yinsuo smiled contemptuously and said, "Count me." Then, she turned her head and left.

"You..." Chen Lianheng was too angry to speak.

But the people standing beside watching the fun all burst into laughter.

Hearing the laughter around him, Chen Lianheng quickly ran away covering his face in shame.He didn't go back to the academy, but ran to the house of the little widow who was in love with him.

To say that Chen Lianheng is quite capable, he hooked up with the shopkeeper's daughter before he and Jiang Wan divorced.

This allowed me to live a good life, at least much better than the life I lived in the village.The father-in-law who was the shopkeeper not only helped him to study, but also found him a job as a temporary accountant.

Therefore, he dumped Jiang Wan without hesitation and married the shopkeeper's daughter.

Now, he comes to Fucheng to go to school.Most of the students here come from good backgrounds, and occasionally there are one or two from poor backgrounds, whose families are poor.

He studies hard and does well in his studies, so he is very popular with the master of the academy.They will also be given some appropriate help, such as borrowing some books or something.

Only Chen Lianheng wanted family background but no family background, money but no money.The 150 taels of silver brought from home were spent in less than a month.

Moreover, his studies are not good, he came in with the rear of the car hanging.

After entering the academy, his mind wasn't on studying at all, what he thought about every day was how to build a good relationship with students from good family backgrounds and integrate into them.

If he wanted to blend in with these people, his food and clothing must not be poor, so as not to be looked down upon by them.

Therefore, the more than 100 taels of silver he brought was spent so quickly.

Originally, Chen Lianheng wanted to use this to make fun of Jiang Chengshan.After all, in his eyes, Chen Lianheng was poorer than him.

What he didn't expect was that Jiang Chengshan had better food and clothing than him.There was also a book boy by his side.

At first, Chen Lianheng thought that this bookboy was picked out from the Jiang clan.

After all, this kind of thing is relatively common among poor scholars, who can't afford bookboys, so they are all selected from the clan.It not only saves money, but also helps the clan.

Chen Lianheng had been secretly complacent for a long time, feeling that he was much better than Jiang Chengshan.At least he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, and he can afford to hire a book boy, which is much better than Jiang Chengshan.

It was only later that I found out that Jiang Chengshan's book boy was bought by himself.Food and clothing are not worse than him, but Jiang Chengshan is more frugal, he just didn't see it.

Knowing that Jiang Chengshan is not short of money, he also bought a book boy.

Chen Lianheng was extremely jealous, and he didn't have enough money to spend.Once, while drinking outside, he met the proprietress of the restaurant, who was a young widow.

The widow's husband was a merchant and left her a lot of property.One of these two wanted money, the other wanted people, and they hit it off.That's how they got together.

Originally, after Chen Lianheng mixed up with the young widow, he forgot about Jiang Wan.Not to mention Jiang Wan, even his own wife and children have been forgotten.

Later, he returned to the academy to attend classes.I overheard someone saying: Jiang Chengshan has a big house in Fucheng, and there are many servants in it.

More importantly, Jiang Wan bought this mansion.I heard that this house is big, the location is good, and it is worth tens of thousands of taels of silver!

Hearing this news, Chen Lianheng felt so regretful!If I had known that Jiang Wan had so much money, why would he have retired to marry the shopkeeper's daughter.

So, next time.Whenever Chen Lianheng was free, he would pester Jiang Chengshan and annoy Jiang Chengshan.

In the end, you can only avoid him.Even for meals, Fang Er called Fang Er to eat in the room, and usually did not leave the room except for class.

Seeing that Jiang Chengshan was avoiding him, Chen Lianheng didn't want to talk to him.He was so angry that he cursed in his heart, and then he simply asked the book boy to guard outside the Jiang residence.

He believed that as long as Jiang Wan came to Fucheng, she would definitely come to this house and see her sooner or later.

It's a pity that Chen Lianheng's book boy doesn't know Jiang Wan.Several times, he mistook the maid in the house for Jiang Wan. Every time, Chen Lianheng came excited and returned disappointed.

Later, Chen Lianheng simply came by himself.It's just that he is not guarding the Jiang residence, but guarding Jiang Chengshan.

He believed that as long as Jiang Wan came to Fucheng, she would definitely come to the academy to see Jiang Chengshan.

Especially recently, because the Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon.All the students in the academy have to give gifts to their masters, and Jiang Chengshan is no exception.

It is usually the elders of the family or the housekeeper who do things like preparing for the festival.Then send it to the academy.

Chen Lianheng believed that Jiang Wan would definitely come.As long as he guards the gate of the academy, he will definitely meet him.
