Chapter 190

“You are too kind, Miss Li,” Shen Shan said somewhat awkwardly. After all, even in the past, the Li family was beyond the Shen family’s reach.

Nowadays, the Li family was even more unattainable for someone like him, Shen Shan.

Yet, the Li family was still willing to extend a helping hand to them. How could Shen Shan not be deeply moved?

Even if the Li family couldn’t help them this time, Shen Shan felt he would still remember this kindness from the Li family.

Shen Shan also felt that he would still remember this kindness from the Li family.

“Then let’s set off,” Li Zhiwei said with a smile.

After all, Xu Heming had already gone to the Huo family’s winery to wait. She just needed to bring people over.

Halfway there, Li Zhiwei turned back to look at Shen Shan and asked, “Uncle Shen, have you brought people to collect the wine?”

“Can we take the wine back today?” Shen Shan hadn’t expected Li Zhiwei to act so quickly.

“It should be possible. It’s never wrong for Uncle Shen to have people prepared,” Li Zhiwei thought for a moment. Yesterday, Xu Heming had said the Huo family’s winery had a considerable amount of wine, and Daughter’s Red was certainly not in short supply, but the exact quantity was still unknown.

However, there definitely was some.

“How about this, Uncle Shen, you go back to the Shen residence first to gather people. An’an and I will go ahead. You can bring people directly to the Huo family winery later,” Li Zhiwei suggested after some thought.

“The Huo family winery?” Shen Shan was somewhat puzzled.

“Father, if Zhiwei asks you to go, just go,” Shen An’an thought of Li Zhiwei’s incredibly capable prince fiancé. Presumably, everything had been prepared long ago.

Moreover, Li Zhiwei certainly wouldn’t harm her family.

And besides, all of this was originally what the Second Miss Huo had promised to give her.

When Li Zhiwei and Shen An’an arrived at the Huo family winery, Qingsong had already had his men inventory all the wine.

“Your Highness, all this wine is ready. You can have people take it away directly,” Qingsong said, pointing to the wine nearby.

“How much is here?” Li Zhiwei asked curiously.

“This… this subordinate doesn’t know,” Qingsong scratched his head. They didn’t understand how to calculate the wine containers either, only knowing that all of this was Daughter’s Red.

“Is there no manager here?” Li Zhiwei curiously looked around.

It seemed apart from Xu Heming’s men, there was no one else.

“When we arrived, there were a few servants, but they ran off when we came,” Qingsong also said with some confusion.

“Is the Huo family’s management this lax?” Li Zhiwei was somewhat surprised.

“Perhaps because it’s the Huo family’s property, in Li’an County, generally no one dares to make a move on it,” Shen An’an thought and said.

After all, the Huo siblings truly had few who dared to provoke them in Li’an County.

“Are ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‍you afraid?” Li Zhiwei asked, looking at Shen An’an.

What if, after she took all the wine today, the Huo family came looking for trouble with the Shen family in the future?

“I’m not afraid!” Shen An’an gave a sly smile. What she didn’t say was that her father planned to take them back to their hometown in Rong’an after completing this business deal.

By then, even if the Huo family wanted to cause trouble for them, they’d have to find them first.

“In that case, let’s wait for Uncle Shen to come move the wine,” Li Zhiwei thought Shen Shan should know how much wine was here.

“If I’m not mistaken, there are sixty large jars here in total, which should be six thousand jin of wine,” Shen An’an said after counting and recounting the wine jars.

“It’s not enough?” Li Zhiwei frowned.

“What’s not enough?” Xu Heming, who had just entered from outside at that moment, asked in confusion.

“There’s not enough Daughter’s Red here for eight thousand jin. Is there more in the wine cellar?” Li Zhiwei asked, puzzled.

“No, but there’s some Scholar’s Red over there,” Qingsong said, quickly walking over upon seeing Xu Heming arrive.

“Then let’s ask Uncle Shen later if he can take that too,” Li Zhiwei didn’t know the specifics of Shen Shan’s agreement with others.

But compared to Daughter’s Red, Scholar’s Red was actually better. There was no reason it wouldn’t be acceptable.

Moonview Pavilion

“Huo Yunyao, have you no shame!” Zhu Yunxian never expected that when he came to find Huo Yunyao, he would see her lying together with several beggars!

Did she ask him here just to make him witness this scene?

“What are you shouting about?” Huo Yunyao was awakened by Zhu Yunxian’s voice and felt somewhat impatient.

“Huo Yunyao, you have the nerve to accuse me of shouting?” Zhu Yunxian was so angry he could barely catch his breath. He only had Du Qiuniang, but Huo Yunyao, on the other hand, was with three men, and all of them were filthy beggars.

If she had found a few male courtesans, he wouldn’t have been this furious.

After all, Huo Yunyao was still his wife for now. Wasn’t this a slap in his face?

Huo Yunyao frowned and only then realized she was completely naked. As she went to look for her clothes, she saw three dirty men in tattered clothes lying beside her.

“Ah!” Looking at the colorful marks on her body and then at the men beside her, what was there for Huo Yunyao not to understand!

Wasn’t she supposed to be drinking with that prince?

Why was it like this?

“Beauty!” One of the beggars woke up, thinking Huo Yunyao still wanted their services, and reached out.

“Get lost!” Huo Yunyao, her eyes red, glared furiously at them. These damned creatures actually dared to take advantage of her.

“Tingyu!”

Huo Yunyao angrily called for her maid.

Unfortunately, only silence answered her.

Huo Yunyao, enraged, wanted to tear those beggars limb from limb!

She was clearly drinking with the prince!

She must have gotten drunk, and these damned men took advantage of her!

How despicable.

“Huo Yunyao, what do you have to say for yourself, you promiscuous woman!” Zhu Yunxian angrily pointed at Huo Yunyao’s nose and cursed.

“Get out! What right do you have to accuse me?” Huo Yunyao had no mind to deal with Zhu Yunxian at this moment.

“Who wants you?” Zhu Yunxian turned and left.

In less than a day, the news that Huo Yunyao had been caught in the act by Zhu Yunxian while having an affair with three beggars at Moonview Pavilion spread throughout Li’an County, known to everyone.

Huo Yunyao returned to the Huo residence and scrubbed herself from head to toe several times, yet she still felt dirty, as if she could still smell the stench of those beggars.

Tingyu knelt outside the door, trembling. She didn’t know what had happened either; she had been knocked out at Moonview Pavilion last night.

When she woke up again, her young mistress’s affair was already common knowledge.

“Where is my elder sister?” Huo Yunyao, after washing for a long time, finally remembered that such a major thing had happened to her. It was one thing that her younger sister hadn’t come to mock her, but why hadn’t her elder sister come to comfort her?

And also, why hadn’t her fourth brother come to inquire about her either?

“Second Miss, the eldest young lady is very busy,” the maid said with her head bowed, speaking softly.

After all, the three young masters of the household had been poisoned to varying degrees, with the head of the family being the most severely affected.

Their own young lady still had the mood to be outside, indulging in pleasure with others.

However, this was something they dared not say.

But everyone in the residence was saying the Second Miss was being inconsiderate.

Usually, the eldest young lady and the young master treated the Second Miss quite well.

Now, the Second Miss only cared about her own pleasure.
