Chapter 671: Fed Up with You All, Break Up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, Bai Ruozhu misunderstood the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of Jiang Yichun’s subordinates reported that Zhou Jue’s horsemen had been sighted near the outskirts of the manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fight had broken out, and Jiang Yichun had rushed over urgently, determined to prevent the conflict from reaching his wife’s manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time Jiang Yichun returned, he had dealt with all the matters at hand, his wounds had been bandaged and the poison had been neutralized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu’s face cooled as soon as she set eyes on him, barely suppressing a contemptuous humph.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Startled, Jiang Yichun believed that Bai Ruozhu was angry with him for failing to protect her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feelings of guilt made him lower his gaze and maintain a chilled silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have all your injuries been dealt with?” After a while, her concern for him got the better of her and she couldn’t help but to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, yes, they have been dealt with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You don’t have to worry.” Jiang Yichun replied in a low voice, staring at his feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He only meant to reassure her, but it seemed to Bai Ruozhu that his words carried a different implication.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu humphed yet again, this time deciding to keep quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then turned and walked away without another word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After wrestling with his thoughts for a while, Jiang Yichun was informed by his guard that Zhou Jue’s whereabouts were lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Yunfeng was also looking for him to manage some tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thus appointed some guards to remain behind and protect the manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tried to find Bai Ruozhu to inform her of this, but soon learned that she and Guizhi had already left for the beauty salon to see female clients.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hurriedly, Jiang Yichun passed on a couple of words to the maid Chixin before he left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only after Bai Ruozhu had finished her duties that she learned from Chixin that Jiang Yichun had already departed, and this news made her mood worsen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Late in the evening, Bai Ruozhu returned to the yard with her mother and Dengdeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guizhi stayed at the Hot Spring Mansion to handle matters there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fact that Jiang Yichun hadn’t returned the entire night upset Bai Ruozhu further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before they became a couple, he would comfort her and choose to trust her no matter what happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that they were together, was it such a big deal that an emasculated fellow had held her in his arms while she was dazed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he need to act as though she had cheated on him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, Bai Ruozhu didn’t rush to the Hot Spring Mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given what happened the previous day, she was concerned that Zhou Jue might not give up and pose a threat to her en route.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt it would be safer to stay in Beiyu City for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shortly after breakfast, she heard the sound of a horse carriage and a knock at the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A maid answered the door and reported that Old Master Du wished to meet with Bai Ruozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu’s eyes narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old fox certainly had a knack for timing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Invite him in for a cup of tea,” she said nonchalantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maid invited Old Master Du inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a broad smile, he greeted Lin Ping’er and then went to the main hall to meet with Bai Ruozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Du Zhongshu, who normally shadowed him, was conspicuously absent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu held a tea cup in her hands, appearing as though she was studying it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing Old Master Du, she poured him a cup of tea, “Du elder, sit down and have a cup of tea.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay, thank you, Ruozhu.” Old Master Du replied with a laugh, casually using a more intimate form of address for Bai Ruozhu as if they were well-acquainted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu played along, taking her time to enjoy her tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t ask Old Master Du for his purpose of visit and remained silent, as if waiting for him to break the silence instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unable to outlast her patience, Old Master Du finally coughed and said, “I am here to deliver the item you have been seeking.” With that, he took out a wooden box and handed it to Bai Ruozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu accepted the box and glanced at the contents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The items were indeed what she needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With these, combined with the medicinal materials she’d prepared, she could make better dental materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well, thank you, Du elder.” Bai Ruozhu thanked him in a casual manner, a style characteristic of businesspeople.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Master Du coughed again and asked, “How’s the business at your Beauty Pavilion?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ve only been open for a day; it’s hard to tell at this point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m worried that it’s inconvenient for our customers as it’s a little out of town.” Bai Ruozhu replied in a nonchalant manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could guess Old Master Du’s intent, but she had no intention of giving any hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Master Du chuckled for a moment, “It’s only natural for you to have such concerns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why not prepare for the future and consider more projects?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu felt that speaking with him was wasting her time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike Shen Lu, he lacked the simplicity and straightforwardness she admired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She raised her eyebrows and asked, “Is Du elder here for my exclusive Xuan Jade and Pearl Jade Cream?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, I’ve heard that you don’t have the time or energy to produce in large quantities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many of the ladies are unhappy about this scarcity, and it’s a pity for you to offend them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, how about we continue our cooperation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can help with production and sales.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The profit will be shared as originally agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How does that sound?” Old Master Du proposed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu scoffed, “Du elder, I have no plans of that sort at the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The products are very delicate and not easily replicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I were to teach anyone, it would have to be my own disciples, whom I’d have to instruct personally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And I currently don’t have the time for that.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Master Du was momentarily lost for words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking for a while, he said, “There’s always a solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can recommend a few skilled workers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would surely learn faster than any disciples you take on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madam City Master is interested in investing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I hope you can make this concession in consideration of her feelings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, she will ensure your benefits.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu’s face darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was Old Master Du using Wang Miaoshuang to pressure her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Madam City Master only wants a 20% stake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll offer you 40%.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How about it?” Old Master Du thought Bai Ruozhu was worried about getting less money and quickly blurted out the numbers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu couldn’t help but laugh, “For my very own product, surely I’d own more than just 40% if I decided to do it myself, wouldn’t I?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cold light gleamed in Old Master Du’s eyes and his tone turned icy, “It’s good for young people to have drive but don’t overstep and underestimate others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beiyu City isn’t a place where one can get their way so easily.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine if an old gent is clever, but don’t take others for fools.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beiyu City won’t abide by someone who arrogantly blocks out the rest of the world!” Bai Ruozhu retorted without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You…” Old Master Du’s face darkened, “Are you really going to disrespect the face of the Du and Meng families?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu burst into laughter, “How could I dare to disrespect the Meng Residence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Du family, what does it count as?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without the toothpaste formula I gave you, you’d just be small businessmen owning a few pharmacies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Wang Miaoshuang wouldn’t waste her time meeting you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You have to learn to be grateful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s fine if you are not grateful to me, but don’t repeatedly challenge my bottom line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, our cooperation ends here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I, Bai Ruozhu, do not need your bonus money!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re too arrogant, disagreeing with the given names of the Masters, that is tantamount to major disrespect,” Old Master Du yelled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu rolled her eyes at him, “You must not have heard correctly due to your old age, who can prove otherwise?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You…you…” Old Master Du was speechless, he hadn’t anticipated Bai Ruozhu denying this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s with the stutter?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve also had enough of your Du family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since you came here today, let’s be clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, I’ll go to the Commerce Association and terminate our contract.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From then on, you don’t need to give me the bonus money, and you can go your own way while I go mine!” Bai Ruozhu stated loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1452,"2026-05-30T14:09:09.870Z","2026-06-01T04:31:25.023Z",1,"novelbin.me","f265cd748585ec1c4eba377bbb92c9275409505a0127e587934e0137365f7da1","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-670","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-668",2707,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fabandoned-woman-busy-farming-cover.jpg"]
