Although the maidservants beside my old relative came back and reported in a low voice, who among those sitting next to them didn't hear it?

The old in-laws didn't say anything, so they naturally waited for her to deal with it.

She understood that this matter could only be handled by her as the grandmother, so as to avoid causing any rift between the Chenguo Mansion and the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.

But why does that girl have such a bad marriage fate?

Yuntang is a Taoist master, she would never say such things for no reason, not to mention that she said it as soon as they met. It is impossible that she said this on purpose because my cousin offended her.

After careful consideration, Princess Cheng believed that what Yuntang said must be true, and she couldn't help but worry about her other granddaughter.

But when I think about the desire to enter the Eastern Palace a few years ago...could it be due to this incident?

On the other side, the wife of Duke Chen was also thinking about this matter, wondering why Yuntang refused to accept the thousand taels of divination fee and was unwilling to tell a fortune for her cousin.

The two old ladies sat there basking in the sun, but they were both silent.

Princess Chenghe, who was sitting next to her, looked at her sister-in-law with envy as she went to talk to Yuntang, and felt bitter in her heart.

The young ladies on the other side of her looked at each other, slowly stood up and quietly walked to the pavilion next to the flower trees on the other side to talk.

I don't want to stay here anymore. It's not appropriate to talk, and it's not appropriate not to talk either. Anyway, it's too tiring.

This time even Wei Yulan didn't say a word and followed her cousins.

When she saw her mother-in-law and her sisters quarreling just now, she thought a lot. For the first time, she did not stand on the side of her mother-in-law, but followed her aunt and cousin's wife and remained silent.

It was very lively over at Yuntang, and no one noticed what was happening over here.

When the boys saw that Yuntang was no longer watching them practice, they all came over to ask her when they could learn some Taoist techniques, and whether they could take a second pill of the Marrow Cleansing Pill, and whether they would learn faster after taking the second pill.

Seeing that they were still learning to walk but wanted to run, Yun Tang couldn't help but roll his eyes at them and said unhappily, "If you practice the basic skills well, you will naturally make rapid progress. If you don't make fast progress, it must be because you haven't practiced well enough."

After hearing this, the boys fell silent.

Yun Tang added: "If taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill can turn a fool into a genius, then selling one pill for 500,000 taels wouldn't be too expensive!"

Not only did the boys fall silent, they couldn't even raise their heads.

At this time, Xiao Yue squeezed over, rubbing his hands and smiling awkwardly, "Sister Tang'er, can we martial artists eat that marrow cleansing pill? Can you sell a few to the brothers?"

Zheng Zizhuo also squeezed over and agreed with a smile.

"My brothers have been practicing martial arts since they were young and went to the battlefield when they were teenagers. Now they are old, and this is the upper limit of their martial arts practice. I heard that this marrow cleansing pill can change one's physique, I wonder..."

Yuntang looked at them, as well as Xiao Ke, who had pulled Jiang Yanting to the front. These were all cousins ​​over twenty years old, and they were all young generals who had returned from the southwest military camp.

Yun Tang said, "One pill costs ten thousand taels. Family love has no price. Just take one pill. You don't have to eat it as a meal."

When they heard that it would cost ten thousand taels, the smiling cousins ​​suddenly became speechless with dull expressions.

The other boys opened their mouths wide, with mixed expressions of surprise yet a sense of how it should be.

But no one made a sound. My mind was already spinning, and I was secretly glad that they had formed a group purchase early.

The price of five hundred taels per pearl was really a price negotiated by Jiang Yanlang for them out of loyalty to their parents. Many of them could not afford it and wrote IOUs.

Lin Haoran collected all the IOUs and handed them over to the emperor.

Everyone received a lot of New Year's money and was planning to pay the remaining balance and collect the IOUs after the Lantern Festival.

It’s not that they don’t dare to owe it for a longer time, but they don’t want to delay owing Yuntang money.

Now that they saw that Yuntang was being sold for 10,000 taels per piece, they felt that they had gotten a huge bargain and were already calculating in their minds how much money they had left.

Jiang Yanlang and his brothers looked at each other silently and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Today they gave the several thousand taels they had collected to their younger sister, but she did not accept it. If she had accepted the money, they would not know when they would be able to pay back the five hundred taels they owed.

The young men had their own thoughts, and the older brothers looked at each other, and then Xiao Ke said, "Okay, 10,000 taels each, we'll buy ten."

He asked for ten, of course he also took into account his father and several of his good friends who were as close as brothers and had killed enemies together with him. The silver was of course paid on their behalf.

But with such a good elixir, it was sold for five hundred taels last time and ten thousand taels this time. He was afraid that next time it would become tens of thousands or even a hundred thousand taels.

It seems that this cousin raises the price without any hesitation, so we have to be on guard.

Xiao Ke asked for ten pills, and Zheng Zizhuo's mind quickly turned around. He gritted his teeth and said, "I want ten too. I'll collect the money when I get back."

He even stated that he would never delay paying his bills.

When Xiao Ke heard this, he quickly emphasized, "Yes, no IOU!"

No IOU!

The younger brothers behind him suddenly came to their senses and started to grumble. It's great that the eldest brother is rich!

Yun Tang smiled and said, "Okay, you can't see me very often. I will visit Prince Yan's Mansion on the twelfth day of the first lunar month. I will bring the elixir with me that day. If it's later, I will have to leave the palace depending on the situation."

Yuntang gave them a transaction time that was closest to their time, which was also the deadline for them to collect 100,000 taels of silver. He also told them to bring the elixir with them that day, as if she didn't have the elixir with her.

Many eyes turned to Yuntang's cuffs.

Yun Tang smiled awkwardly when he saw this, and said helplessly: "Isn't this to emphasize that one hand is silver, the other hand is goods."

Her words made everyone laugh, but the laughter soon died down because when they thought about the price, they found it not funny at all.

But as soon as they thought of the effects of the marrow cleansing pill, they became excited again.

What could make these military generals happier than seeing their martial arts skills advance by leaps and bounds?

Fighting a war is not just about military strategies and tactics, it is also about the martial arts and combat effectiveness of the commanders!

Amidst the laughter and conversation, Yuntang earned two hundred thousand taels of silver, and he was very happy. He saw that all his cousins ​​were kind-hearted people.

Everyone was chatting and laughing, and the servants carried the table and placed it on the open space here, and also brought in chairs.

Everyone was sitting or standing, and asked Yuntang about life and habits in the East, and the things to pay attention to when learning Taoism. For them who grew up in the capital, these questions were very strange.

As they talked a lot, they became closer to Yuntang.

Only Zheng Xingyu, who was sitting in a daze under the corridor, and Jiang Yingxue, who was standing quietly behind her grandmother, were jealous and envious, feeling depressed and complicated...

It was finally time for the lunch banquet and everyone went to Qinxiang Pavilion to take their seats.

Since it was a family banquet, the guests were not spread out in different places. Instead, a few tables were set up in Qinxiang Pavilion, with a large screen separating the men's and women's tables.

But I didn't expect that the harmonious and warm atmosphere of the whole morning would be broken in the end because of the issue of where Yuntang should sit.
