Chapter 255 Retribution
"Is this the animal you're talking about?"

"Yes, that's it. We use cloth to embroider such a pattern, then sew it up, fill it with rags and it becomes a plush doll."

Shen Jia gestured again at quilt covers, bedspreads, pillowcases and other bedding items until Li Wanqin understood.

"When Yunshang Pavilion is on the right track, I will hand over the management of Yunshang Pavilion to my mother and eldest aunt. My mother is mainly responsible for product development, and my eldest aunt is mainly responsible for sales. If you have any questions in the future, you can go The Protector's Office is looking for them."

"it is good."

"I will give you five taels of silver per month, stewards two taels of silver per month, and everyone else one tael of silver per month. If you do well, you will get an extra bonus every month. In addition, there will be a two-cent dividend for you. All of you will share it equally. Go back and tell them and sign the contract tomorrow," Shen Jia said.

"Girl, didn't you say 100% dividends? How come it becomes 20% dividends?"

"Didn't I see that there are so many of you? As soon as the dividends arrive and you don't have much in your hands, I'll give you a little more!"

Li Wanqin's eyes were slightly red, "Girl, you don't have to be like this. Such a big shop costs a lot of money, as well as materials and labor. It's still a question of when the money will be repaid..."

Shen Jia waved his hand, "Don't worry about this. If I give you 20%, it's 20%. Just let them work hard to earn the money back for me."

"Yes." Li Wanqin and the other women responded with tears in their eyes.

"That's right! I plan to open on the second day of the Lantern Festival. Can you do it?"

Li Wanqin thought for a moment and said, "Okay."

"Okay, I'll ask Jiang Zelin to deliver the fabric to you tomorrow morning."

"The decoration here will start tomorrow. After the decoration is completed, the clothes can be made in the backyard, and the bedding and plush toys will still be prepared and shipped to the house."

"it is good."

Shen Jia then discussed with them the decoration style of Yunshang Pavilion.

Everyone kept discussing until dusk before going home.

On the other side, Zhou Shaocheng entered the room with the decoction and saw Lin Xue still lying on the bed with her eyes closed, her face as pale as paper.

His eyes were filled with pity.

He put the medicine on the table, stepped forward and held Lin Xue's hand, his voice choked with sobs: "Xue'er, you have been in a coma for a day. Wake up quickly and take the medicine. Don't scare your husband..."

Lin Xue heard his voice and struggled to open her eyes. When she saw the unkempt and haggard Zhou Shaocheng, she was startled and asked in a hoarse voice: "Husband, what happened? Why do I have no strength at all?" "

"The doctor said you were so angry that you were in a coma..."

After Zhou Shaocheng said it, Lin Xue remembered it.

She grabbed Zhou Shaocheng's hand anxiously, her voice trembling with excitement: "Husband, what are the rumors outside?"

Zhou Shaocheng held her hand and comforted her: "It's okay, my father-in-law has sent people to suppress her."

What he didn't know was that the news had spread throughout the capital before Zhen Guogong suppressed it.

Lin Xuegang wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but then she remembered that since her father sent people to suppress the rumors, it meant that her mother also knew about it, or did something happen to her mother too?
She asked anxiously: "Did something happen to my mother?"

Zhou Shaocheng's eyes averted, he looked around, picked up the decoction and said softly: "Xue'er, drink the medicine to get better quickly."

Lin Xue picked up the soup and drank it all in one gulp, then asked stubbornly: "Did something happen to my mother?"

Zhou Shaocheng covered Lin Xue with a quilt and said, "Mother-in-law is fine. You have a good rest. I'll go check on Yu'er." After saying that, he hurried away, staggering a little.

Lin Xue narrowed her eyes, he lied. She quickly called her confidant Nanny: "Did something happen to the old lady?"

Grandma looked at Lin Xue's cold eyes, not daring to deceive her, and nodded.

"What happened?" Lin Xue sat up suddenly and said coldly.

"I can't move half of my body, my mouth and eyes are crooked, I'm drooling, and my speech is slurred. The imperial doctor said I had a stroke..."

Lin Xuebao screamed, "What? My mother has always been in good health, how could this be? No, I have to go to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion to see..."

Lin Xue got out of bed after saying that.

Zhou Shaocheng heard her scream and hurried over. Seeing this scene, if there was anything he didn't understand, his mother-in-law must have told her what happened.

Zhou Shaocheng glared at Grandma, who shrank her neck and silently stepped aside.

He stepped forward to support Lin Xue's body: "Xue'er, you haven't recovered yet and you can't get out of bed."

Lin Xue pushed his hand away: "Husband, there is no need to persuade me, I must go to see my mother."

Zhou Shaocheng sighed helplessly, "In that case, I will go with you as my husband!"

After Da Yahuan stepped forward to give Lin Xue a simple make-up, she then took a carriage to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion.

After arriving at Zhen Guo Gong's mansion, Lin Xue took a sedan chair to go to Zhen Guo Gong's wife's yard, while Zhou Shaocheng was invited by Zhen Guo Gong to the study.

Sitting in the study were the King of Qi, the Prince of Zhenguo, and others.

Zhou Shaocheng sat down after saluting.

The discussion continued in the room.

"Ah Cheng, let's ignore these rumors for now and let them be proud for a few more days without missing our important event." Duke Zhen Guo warned.

Zhou Shaocheng cupped his hands and said, "Father-in-law, you can ignore the rumors, but Yu'er's voice cannot be dragged down any longer."

"Didn't the Poison King go to your house to detoxify Yu'er?" Duke Zhen Guo asked suspiciously.

Zhou Shaocheng's heart trembled: "He said he was going back to Zhen Guogong's Mansion to study the antidote. Didn't he come back?"

The Crown Prince shook his head, "No, I thought he was staying at your place!" He immediately called in secret guards to find out the situation as soon as possible.

The Poison King is too important to them, so nothing can happen to him.

Two quarters of an hour later, the secret guard hurriedly came to report: "The guard guarding the city gate saw the coachman driving the carriage out of the city early yesterday morning."

Zhenguo Gong and his son breathed a sigh of relief.

But Zhou Shaocheng felt that things were not that simple: "Father-in-law, my son-in-law feels that things are not that simple. The Poison King left my house the night before yesterday and left the city early yesterday morning. Where did he go all night? And why hasn't he come back yet?"

"The Poison King has a weird quirk. He gets extremely excited when encountering intractable poisons. He searches for antidotes all over the world. It is not surprising that he disappears for several years in order to study poisons or find antidotes. It should be that the poison in Yu'er is relatively difficult to detoxify. He Let's go out of the city to find the antidote," said the Crown Prince.

Duke Zhen Guo nodded: "The Poison King is covered in poison, no one can do anything to him."

Zhou Shaocheng swallowed the words as he spoke, his intuition telling him that something must have happened to the Poison King, and Yu'er could only ask that little girl Shen Jia for the antidote.

On the other side, Lin Xue looked at her mother with her mouth crooked and drooling, tears falling down her cheeks: "Mom, I'm sorry, my daughter has caused you trouble."

Mrs. Zhen Guogong raised her hand tremblingly and said intermittently with all her strength: "Good boy... Bao... I am... wronged..."
