Chapter 73 Smart Man
  Shen Zhuoxi left everything to Li Zhong. He had already optimistic about the day and replied: "Look, two days after the mid-year banquet will be a good day to open the business."
  "The plaque at the door hasn't been redone yet. Do you want to change the name?"
  "Yi'an Hall and Yi'an Hall sound similar, so let's change it." Shen Zhuoxi thought for a while and said: "The doctors are kind-hearted, so let's call it Renxintang. It also reminds the doctors there all the time to do a good job." Duty.”
  "Okay, I will order someone to make a plaque now." Li Zhong called the boy and said, "You can lead my boss to see if there is anything wrong with the medicinal materials."
  Shen Zhuoxi walked to the medicine cabinet and only looked at a few medicinal materials before Xu Zhisheng appeared.
  He obviously came at a trot, his breath was uneven, and he said: "Miss, you are finally here. I have an appointment with Young Master Wu."
  "Is he here?" Shen Zhuoxi looked behind Xu Zhisheng and asked.
  "Yes." Xu Zhisheng cried and laughed, and said: "The villain's son will be tried in ten days. It will be difficult to rehabilitate him after the trial. There is no other way. The villain is guarding the door of the Wu family, finally waiting for the third son. .”
  "Third Young Master is waiting outside, where should we go to talk?"
  "Third floor." Shen Zhuoxi pointed to the upper floor, then looked outside and said, "Don't let others find out."
  She went upstairs first. Before Mr. Wu went upstairs, he heard bursts of coughing. Judging from the sound, Mr. Wu was not suffering from any serious illness.
  Opening the door, Mr. Wu San was dressed in a crescent-white robe. Qing Jun's face was pale, and with a strong scholarly air, he cupped his hands and saluted, "Wu San has met Miss Shen."
  "Young Master Wu is right, please sit down." Shen Zhuoxi pointed to the stool in front of the desk and said, "Mr. Xu, have you told the Third Young Master everything?"
  "Yes." Young Master Wu San lowered his head and said, "It's just that Miss Shen is probably asking the wrong person for this matter. Wu San can't help with Xu An's matter."
  Xu An is Xu Zhisheng's son.
  "Why?" Shen Zhuoxi didn't mince words and said straightforwardly: "Because the other party is the eldest brother and legitimate son of Third Young Master Wu. Even if Third Young Master knows the truth, he is not willing to testify?"
  She had already sent people to investigate the foundation of the Wu family. The third son of Wu, whose real name was Wu Han, was the daughter of the third concubine of the Wu family. The eldest son of the Wu family was named Wu Yong, who was the son of the principal wife Zhang.
  The Zhang family is also engaged in business and is a close rival of the Wu family. The only direct child is Wu Yong. He has been pampered and loved since childhood, and has developed an arrogant and useless temperament, which makes him very unfamous.
  Master Wu asked Wu Yong to study and study literature. He only waited for him to become a minor official, and his back half was stable. Who knew that Wu Yong could not study and failed to pass the exam several times.
  In the end, Mr. Wu could only turn a blind eye and let Wu Yong indulge in wine and sex, and let Wu Han, the talented third son of the Wu family, help take care of the family business.
  However, Wu Han came from a bad background, and no matter how capable he was, he was destined to be a stepping stone.
  When Wu Han saw what Shen Zhuoxi said, he didn't hide it and said frankly: "Since Miss Shen knows my situation, why should I be embarrassed? This is the family rule."
  "Even if the eldest brother fails to live up to his expectations, he is the legitimate son who will inherit the family business after all. If I want to survive, I must avoid his edge. If I don't quit this matter early, I will be the unlucky one."
  "I don't mean to blame the Third Young Master. I invite the Third Young Master here because I want to make a deal with you." Shen Zhuoxi is not a Holy Mother. She would also choose to protect herself in that situation.
  Whoever is unlucky is a matter of luck. She will not be stupid enough to blame Wu Han for being cruel.
  Wu Han finally breathed a sigh of relief: "What deal?"
  "Mr. Xu, go outside and help Li Zhong." Shen Zhuoxi sent Xu Zhisheng away.
  wu
  The two of them and Hui Zhi were the only ones left in the room. Shen Zhuoxi picked up the tea cup and took a sip before saying, "You know that your aunt, Mrs. Wu, the young minister of Dali Temple, is trying to match up your eldest brother and me, right?"
  Although it was a question, the tone was indeed affirmative.
  Wu Han hesitated and nodded: "The matchmaker came to the door and said that the eldest brother was very happy. When he was drunk, he even told people outside that he would soon become the golden turtle son-in-law of the Taishi Mansion."
  "After my father found out, he severely reprimanded my eldest brother. The eldest brother restrained himself and did not say these words again. However, my aunt's visits to my aunt's house became more and more frequent, and she brought good gifts every time."
  The hint in the latter sentence was obvious enough. Mrs. Zhang planned to discuss it quietly with Mrs. Wu and settle down in silence.
  After all, it was not Yu Qinglian’s fault that Mrs. Wu dared to have such thoughts!
  Shen Zhuoxi didn't believe it. She could easily find out about Wu Yong's personality, but Yu Qinglian couldn't!
  Mrs. Wu's mother's family and her husband's family both have the surname Wu, and they are related by marriage several generations apart. If Wu Guoyuan, the young minister of Dali Temple, can't do it, I don't know if Mrs. Wu can still do it.
  Shen Zhuoxi's voice was cold and she said, "I don't want to marry that kind of useless person. The third young master is a very good person and talented. If you are willing, you will be at the helm of the Wu family in the future. It's not impossible."
  "The premise is that we must work together to bring down your eldest brother."
  The light in Wu Han's eyes flashed away, and then he coughed twice and said, "Miss Shen thinks too highly of me. How can I, a sickly person, compete with my elder brother?"
  "Stop pretending. If you really didn't want to argue, you wouldn't have come here." Shen Zhuoxi put down the tea bowl and said, "I like to deal with straightforward and smart people, and the third young master happens to be that."
  "You are cautious. You must have evidence that Wu Yong was greedy for money and other evidence. You only need to give these to me. You don't need to take action for the rest. I will solve it."
  Wu Han hesitated for a while and said, "It's okay if things work out. If it doesn't work out, my eldest brother will survive by chance, and my life will be over. Miss Shen, how can I trust you?"
  "Believe it or not, isn't it just a gamble?" Shen Zhuoxi raised his eyebrows: "Besides, you are not seriously ill. I believe that the Wu family is safer in your hands."
  Wu Han didn't answer. He picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip. After a long time, he said cruelly: "The things will be sent to Yi'an Hall in the evening. I hope Miss Shen succeeds."
  Shen Zhuoxi saw him shaking off the shopkeeper's hand and gently tapped his hand on the table: "You don't have to participate in the matter, but in the future confrontation in the yamen, you must come forward to testify."
  "You can't eat such a big fat piece of meat from the Wu family in vain, right?"
  Wu Han spread his hands and said: "If Miss Shen can do this, I only need to say a few words and I will definitely cooperate."
  After Wu Han left, Xu Zhisheng couldn't wait to come in and asked: "Miss, how is it?"
  "Okay, Xu An is fine for the time being." Shen Zhuoxi stood up and said, "Be prepared. The Yi'an Hall has been renamed and will open soon. You are the main doctor."
  On the carriage heading to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Hui Zhi still couldn't help but asked: "Miss, do you really believe in Mr. Wu Han?"
  "Wu Han is a smart man and doesn't dare to make any trouble." Shen Zhuoxi sneered: "I am the second young lady of Taishi Mansion. If he betrays you, I can bite him back."
  "It's said that he took the initiative to bring things to me and asked for cooperation. The Wu family knew that I couldn't have anything from their inside. In the end, he couldn't defend himself. The Wu family couldn't let him go."
  Huizhi silently gave a thumbs up and said: "Miss is still smart, but how can the government get rid of Xu An by doing this?"
