"Come in and talk," Er Zhu said calmly, looking at Old Wang, and walked into the house.
Seeing Er Zhu's expressionless face, a hint of panic flashed in Old Wang's eyes, and he immediately glared fiercely at Wang Feng. If the cooperation failed, he would never forgive her!
Wang Feng felt the sharp gaze and shivered, standing helplessly. She was so foolish to mock that fool in front of her grandfather!
Wang Feng took a deep breath, suppressed her grievances, and then carefully helped Old Wang into the house.
"Er Zhu, I heard you planted a lot of ginseng. I've come today to discuss cooperation with you," Old Wang said as soon as he sat down, impatiently stating his purpose. He was competing with others, so the sooner the better!
Old Wang rubbed his hands, looking at Er Zhu with anticipation, his eyes full of flattery.
A trace of shock flashed in Wang Feng's eyes, and she subconsciously glanced at the calm Er Zhu. Her grandfather was the most reputable Chinese medicine doctor in town, and she had never seen him fawn over anyone like this! Could this fool really not be a fool, or was he deliberately faking it? Wang Feng scrutinized Er Zhu, her mind racing.
"Sure, just tell me how much you need, and I'll set it aside for you," Er Zhu nodded slightly, feeling Old Wang's sincere gaze. Although Lin Quan had promised to buy all his ginseng, Er Zhu felt it would be better to have multiple sales channels. After all, he would be growing more medicinal herbs in the future!
"Great, thank you so much. Let's sign the contract then." Seeing Er Zhu nod, Old Wang's smile widened. He quickly took out the contract, as if Er Zhu would run away if he delayed.
"Er Zhu, what are you signing now?" Just as Er Zhu was about to sign, Wang Er Shen's voice suddenly came from outside the window. Er Zhu looked up and saw Wang Er Shen leaning on the window, smiling at him sarcastically. Not only Wang Er Shen, but Li Mei's courtyard wall and yard were already crowded with curious villagers. They hadn't believed the news at first, but now it was true! That was Old Wang! A famous doctor in town! It was said that one had to make an appointment a month in advance to see him, and even then, it wasn't guaranteed. Yet, such a prominent figure was actively seeking cooperation with a fool. Truly, the world is full of wonders!
All the villagers craned their necks, watching Er Zhu and Old Wang discuss. Old Wang smiled awkwardly, while Er Zhu remained unfazed. "Nothing much, just the clinic buying ginseng," Er Zhu said calmly after signing with a flourish, as if Old Wang were just an ordinary Chinese medicine doctor, not a celebrity.
Hearing this, a hint of envy flashed in the villagers' shocked eyes. The incident with Boss Lin was still fresh in their minds, and now someone else wanted to buy Chinese herbs. Could it be that the fool's Chinese herbs were really that good? Thinking this, the villagers looked at each other and discussed for a long time, but couldn't come to any conclusion.
"Er Zhu, what about the cherries in your backyard? We're all waiting to eat your cherries," Wang Er Shen said, envious yet jealous. Her eyes twinkled as she asked deliberately. As soon as she finished speaking, other villagers chimed in with mischievous smiles.
A flash of insight appeared in Er Zhu's eyes. He had already seen through Wang Er Shen's heart with his heavenly eyes! These villagers were her doing; she had come to disrupt his contract signing and laugh at him! This was truly the wickedness of a woman's heart!
"What? Our town is so dry, how can you grow cherries? This is something only a fool would do!" Hearing this, Wang Feng, who had been suppressing her anger, found an outlet and mocked sarcastically. "Grandpa, cooperating with a fool will lead to ruin!" Wang Feng snatched the contract from the table and was about to tear it up, saying.
"Put it down! What's wrong with you, child? Why are you always disrupting my cooperation with Er Zhu!" Old Wang snatched the contract from Wang Feng, who was trying to tear it, and yelled at her in confusion. He had brought Wang Feng along today because she was usually good at negotiating and could handle any difficult client with ease. But what was happening today? She was undermining him!
"She's still upset because she lost the land bid to a fool," Er Zhu said leisurely, interrupting Wang Feng's attempt to explain. Hearing this, Li Mei, who had been puzzled, suddenly understood. No wonder Miss Wang had such a prejudice against Er Zhu; there was indeed something like this!
"Ah? You said the bumpkin who outbid you last time was Er Zhu!" Old Wang's eyes darted, and he asked Wang Feng in shock. Wang Feng had mentioned this to him some time ago, and she had been so angry that she couldn't eat or sleep for a week. He had only managed to appease her by promising to get revenge for her. Old Wang never expected that the bumpkin Wang Feng had described as deserving a thousand cuts was actually Er Zhu!
"If I had known you were a fool, I would have fought you to the end!" Seeing that the matter was exposed, Wang Feng no longer wanted to hide. She glared venomously at Er Zhu and gritted her teeth. It didn't matter if it came out, her grandfather had promised to help her get revenge! Someone like you, a fool, is not worthy of cooperating with our Wang family! A cold glint flashed in Wang Feng's eyes, and a sly smile appeared on her lips.
"What's there to fight over? It's just a piece of land, you can find another one!" Just as Wang Feng expected Old Wang to avenge her, she heard him say this. Wang Feng looked at Old Wang in disbelief, her lips trembling, unsure of what to say. Was this still the grandfather who doted on her? He hadn't said this last time!
"You child truly have no upbringing. I'll teach you a good lesson when we get back!" As Wang Feng was about to question Old Wang, his next words struck her heart like a sharp dagger! No upbringing? Her grandfather had always said she was the best-behaved child! Why was everything her fault when it came to this fool?
"Grandpa, who is your granddaughter, me or this fool? Do you even know who you should be siding with!" Wang Feng finally couldn't bear it anymore. Tears welled up in her eyes as she questioned Old Wang. Thinking of Old Wang's past affection for her, and his words today, Wang Feng felt her worldview shatter!
"Apologize! Apologize to Er Zhu immediately, or you'll never enter the Wang family's door again!" Old Wang was enraged by Wang Feng's arrogance and shouted sternly with a dark face.
"I'm stopping you from cooperating with a fool, and you're not only not grateful but want me to apologize?" "As the dignified daughter of the Wang family, why should I apologize to a fool!" Old Wang's words disappointed Wang Feng to the extreme. She pointed at Er Zhu furiously, her eyes seemingly wanting to tear him apart!
