Chapter 447: Chapter 447 Got a Strange Disease _1

“Your words are indeed eloquent,” Sun San’niang said with a smile.

“I hope that Boss Sun can give me a chance,” said Wei Ruo.

“You ask me for an opportunity but refuse to budge on the price.”

“Please don’t take it the wrong way, Boss Sun. The materials were hard to come by, so I simply can’t lower the price,” said Wei Ruo.

Sighing, Sun San’niang said, “All right, all right. Given the quality of your material, I agree to your price. However, it’s based on the condition that all materials you bring later are of this quality. If any are subpar, I won’t accept them.”

Knowing well that the materials were not just exceptional but also unique, Sun San’niang felt that the price she paid was justified. Her previous words were just tactics of negotiating and bargaining.

Seeing Wei Ruo’s unwavering stance, Sun San’niang didn’t try to haggle further, fearing that if she did, the deal might fall through.

“I will deliver the materials in a few days, Boss Sun. Please inspect them in person,” Wei Ruo proposed.

“Agreed,” Sun San’niang affirmed.

By the time Wei Ruo finished speaking with Sun San’niang, Wei Qingwan and Lady Bai had already left Caiyun Room.

Wei Ruo made sure to check the condition of all the employees in the store, and once ensuring that no one was feeling ill, she left.

Since it was already late, Wei Ruo and Xiumei went back to the house they came from, changed clothes, and got back into the carriage.

“Madam, did the two guards who followed us ask you about my whereabouts?”

In the carriage, Wei Ruo asked Nanny Zhang.

“They asked several times, but I didn’t say anything. I just told them to be patient and that you’d return when your task was completed,” replied Nanny Zhang.

“That’s good.”

“But miss, they might report this to the Madam when they get back,” warned Nanny Zhang.

“There’s no need to worry about that. Let them report it if they want to,” replied Wei Ruo calmly.

Wei Ruo had no fear of these guards getting suspicious or of having to confront Madam about their report.

She didn’t care about her reputation being ruined. On the contrary, it was the Loyal and Righteous Duke Residence that worried about her reputation.

So, when these guards reported to the Madam, she would likely ask them to keep quiet.

At this point, the seniors wouldn’t punish her for anything. At the most, they’d restrict her from going out the next time.

It was late when Wei Ruo returned to the mansion. She had her dinner in Changchun Garden.

Her meals had improved over the past few days and the dishes sent from the main kitchen were not just fresh, but also abundant.

After dinner, Wei Ruo heard that doctors were summoned for Lady Bai and Wei Qingwan.

Since their return, they and their maids had developed itchy red rashes all over their bodies for unknown reasons.

Lady Bai was seen crying and screaming in discomfort. She was so itchy that she even tore her clothes off.

Wei Qingwan was no better. She was seen weeping a lot and rolling on her bed. Lady Yun was sweating profusely due to the worry and even the Madam was disturbed and went to see them personally.

Now, with the doctor yet to arrive, no one in the house knew what was wrong with them and whether they’d contracted some strange disease.
