Chapter 705: Chapter 705: Encountered Again (4)_1
Everyone’s mouths twitched at those words, they were so arrogant there was no limit, but she had the capital to be so, didn’t she? Who could argue when her master was so formidable?
Fang Jing, however, laughed heartily, "Well, if it’s a token of filial piety from my granddaughter, then we will gladly accept it." After speaking, he had the butler quickly fetch a brocade box, then carefully packed the ginseng inside, before handing it over to the Ma Family with instructions to keep it safe.
"Miss Yang," at this moment, a white-haired old man suddenly approached Yang Ruxin with a very respectful attitude, "I am Su Shouren from the Tongji Hall."
"President Su," Yang Ruxin knew about several pharmacies in the area, thanks to Wang Zhenggang’s introductions, and also because Qian Er had some familiarity with the town. Over the past few days, she had been gathering information on medicine prices and properties, so she was aware that Tongji Hall was the leading pharmacy in Baihua County. Su Shouren was the president of the county’s medical trade association, a highly respected elder who had originally treated Fang Tianze’s illness and later recommended Wang Zhenggang.
"It is like this, about that hundred-year ginseng, I wonder if the young lady would be willing to part with just one root..." Su Shouren rubbed his hands together, "You must know that such a thing can save lives at critical times. They are indeed rare, so... of course, I will pay the market price..."
The eyes of many people around them lit up; indeed, such an item was rare and sought after. If she really was willing to sell, then it would be worth buying a root to keep for oneself.
Yet Yang Ruxin just smiled, "My master said that gold and silver are too vulgar... and besides, today is a birthday banquet, not an auction. Better not to mention it..."
There was nothing Su Shouren could say in response, but he still hadn’t given up hope. He was waiting for an opportunity to negotiate after the banquet, perhaps even enlist Fang Jing’s aid.
The way the people around them looked at Yang Ruxin changed once again, now carrying undertones of flattery in their gazes.
The Dai Family was slapped in the face once more.
Dai Zhigao even felt it difficult to remain seated, but for the sake of the future, he could only thicken his skin and stay put while glaring fiercely at the Chen Family.
The Chen Family was also frustrated, but dared not be careless, keeping a close watch on their daughter, for if things continued this way, her reputation would be ruined.
As the birthday banquet began, Yang Ruxin took her leave, for Fang Tianze had said he had arranged a separate feast for her family. She had no interest in dining in such company, so naturally, she did not refuse.
"Sister Xin, you go ahead, I’ll come to join you for dinner in a bit," Fang Tianze made a funny face at Yang Ruxin.
Yang Ruxin smiled, leading Xiaofeng and Zhou Xiao, following Liu Guang out of the floral hall toward the Dingxiang Academy.
Just as they reached the Moon Gate of the floral hall courtyard, they saw the butler leading two people coming toward them, who seemed to be there to offer their birthday wishes as well.
"Miss?" However, one of the men following the butler suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "We meet again."
It was only then that Yang Ruxin looked over the butler’s shoulder and smiled, "It seems we are truly fated, but if you’re here to give birthday wishes, you’re a bit late."
"Some trivial matters held me up, but luckily I didn’t miss the main hour," Yong Cang responded quite honestly.
Yang Ruxin said nothing more but nodded her head and continued walking with Liu Guang.
Yong Cang watched Yang Ruxin’s retreating figure, the corners of his mouth curving slightly, then followed the butler into the floral hall.
Inside the Dingxiang Academy, everyone seemed quite at ease. Liuyun, getting along well with the group, had brought plenty of snacks and fruits and even two mynas to teach them to talk, making the young maids laugh delightfully, their giggles audible from afar.
