Li Haoran understood:

"What special requirements do you have?"

"As for the request! It will depend on your ability, and it would be best if you can provoke the anger of the magistrate, and make him do this as if it's his own business! " Wan smiled slyly.

Li Haoran pondered for a moment before nodding:

"Tell me about the Zhao Family!"

That's what I'm going to do. Wan of the Clouds smiled and said slowly:

"Zhao Fu is my mother's concubine, he came over from the Du Family. Previously, he managed the village outside the city. However, after the Ye Clan made the jam business, that manor was changed to the workshop.

Naturally, Zhao Fu became the manager of the workshop and shop. A few days ago, there was an accident in the Ye Family's jam business. I went to the manor to investigate and found that the workshop looked abandoned.

"Oh right, the Zhao Family took off their servant status five years ago, otherwise, they wouldn't have to inform the officials. The Ye Family could handle this itself."

Wan was very concise, but she had said everything that needed to be said. Li Haoran also began writing.

In about the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Li Haoran had finished writing a bill. A-Wan took it and read it all in one go. A-Wan just wanted to give Li Haoran a Like.

The whole article was elegant and fluent, and the words were just right, highlighting the Zhao family's luxury and wealth.

Wan was satisfied, and as promised, the accountant gave him twenty taels of silver. Then, she copied a copy of Ye Siyuan's notebook and sealed it with his private seal. He had someone send him to the magistrate court.

County Magistrate Lin accepted the bill with great importance. More importantly, the Zhao Family's courtyard was larger than his family's. This made him, who had been a County Magistrate for more than ten years, very angry.

He immediately had his men seal off the public road and go all out to capture the Zhao Family.

After taking care of these things, the sky had already darkened. Zhao Nian stayed at the Ye residence and stayed the night without incident.

The next morning, someone from the county magistrate's office came. He said that the people from the Zhao Family had come back and wanted to know if the Ye Family needed a hearing.

Ye Wan said no.

It was not even noon when the Zhao Family's property was counted. With the Ye Family's deficit, everything else was checked out. Zhao Fu went to prison, and the rest of the Zhao Family also went back home.

The matter of the Zhao Family had come to an end.

Zhao Nian stayed at the Ye Family residence, and the Du Family remembered Zhao Quan's kindness, and told Wan to take good care of her.

In the afternoon, Wan decided to take Zhao Nian out to shop and get her some clothes and accessories. It just so happened that they ran into Liu Yu, who came to look for Ye Wan.

Wan was surprised.

"Why do you have the time to come over? Don't you have to go to the academy?"

"Pu ci, you've been silly at home. Today you have taken a rest!" Liu Yu laughed at her.

Only then did Wan realize that she had been at home for almost ten days.

"Then why didn't you come over this morning? Why didn't you come over when you knew I was being held at home for so long!?"

Liu Yu did not answer, but her mood became a bit down.

"What happened?"

Liu Yu glanced at Zhao Nian, who hesitated to speak. A-Wan understood and stopped asking.

The more women, the more gossips there were. Women talked the most to each other as they tidied up their clothes. Thus, it gave birth to a variety of industries that targeted women.

In Qingcheng, Magnificent Street was a place that specialized in the business of women. The whole street was filled with clothing stores, powder shops, jewelry stores.

The streets were filled with groups of girls shuttling back and forth between the various shops.

Zhao Nian's eyes lit up in excitement. Wan signaled Little Xi to follow her. Seeing that someone was paying, Zhao Nian was overjoyed and went to buy it.

A Wan and Liu Yu chatted nonchalantly, while Liu Yu spoke a little unnaturally when they talked about Cliffs.

"What's wrong?"

"No!" He's fine. " Liu Yu calmly answered.

However, Wan felt that something wasn't right, but she couldn't figure out what.

While they were talking, the few of them arrived at the gate of the Ru Yi Workshop.

Ru Yi Workshop was the biggest makeup shop in Qingcheng. It had a total of three floors, the first floor was where the clothing was, the second floor was where the jewelry was. As for the third floor, it was private and no one knew what it was for.

Wan waved her hand to get her to help, then asked Zhao Nian to take a look for herself, "Ru Yi Workshop is a property of the Ye Family. Go take a look yourself, choose a few sets of summer clothes and jewelry, and let the shop assistant help you wrap them up if you like."

Zhao Nian was overjoyed.

As the biggest makeup shop in Qingcheng, the Ru Yi Workshop was not cheap. Although Zhao Nian usually wore pretty good clothes, she couldn't even imagine a place like the Ru Yi Workshop.

Today, not only had she entered the Ru Yi Workshop, but she could buy one at will. Zhao Nian was very happy and felt that she had the ability to show off in front of her little sisters.

Seeing that Zhao Nian had put her heart into it, Wan pulled Liu Yu to the second floor as well.

The second floor was very wide, with jewelry on one side and a place for guests to rest on the other.

When Ah Wan and Liu Yu arrived on the second floor, a waiter enthusiastically led them to their seats. Very quickly, they served tea and snacks. This was also Liu Yu's first time here, so she seemed a bit nervous. A-Wan waved her hand towards the waiter, "You can leave now. Let Aunt Hong come over!"

The waiter replied, and very soon, Hong Niang came over.

Hong Ye was a woman in her thirties. She wore very bold clothes, and her tight waist made her impressive figure even more obvious.

Her facial features were deep and exotic. Her face was painted with thick makeup, but she didn't seem ordinary. Instead, it gave her a sense of mysteriousness.

When Hong Ye saw Wan, she welcomed her with a bright smile.

"Third Miss, didn't you say that you didn't want me to greet you just now?"

"I saw a luxurious carriage coming from the entrance just now. It must be a big customer. I didn't want you to entertain him yourself."

"Third Miss is still as smart as ever!" Hong Gu laughed heartily.

Then he looked at Liu Yu:

"This lady looks really unfamiliar. I don't think I've seen her before!"

"This is Liu Yu, my friend!"

Hong Shi was surprised, and her attitude towards Liu Yu became a lot more respectful. After so many years, there weren't many people that could make Ye Wan call them friends.

"Alright, Auntie Hong, help me find Miss Liu some suitable sets of clothes and jewelry."

Hong Shi agreed and went down to pick them herself.

After a while, Hong Aunt led a group of maids. Each of them was holding a tray, a total of four sets of Xia Yi's and four sets of faces.

Liu Yu was stunned, unable to react.

Wan chuckled. "Go and have a try. Aunt Hong has good eyes!"

As she spoke, she asked the maid to take Liu Yu to the side to test out her clothes and jewelry. Liu Yu had always been somewhat stupefied.

After Liu Yu left, Hong Ju's attitude towards Wan became much more casual. She sat opposite Wan with a giggle:

"Who is this girl? She can obtain your azure eyes."

"She's not bad, I like her!"

Aunt Hong laughed, "You!"

A-Wan's expression slowly turned serious. "How is it?" she asked in a small voice.

Seeing that Wan was talking about serious matters, he said seriously, "It has temporarily covered the Jiangnan region. The capital city is not that fast, but our people are working hard and we expect it to be ready in the second half of the year."

"Let the people from Jiangnan liven up first. Be careful in the capital. It doesn't matter if you slow down. Don't let anyone notice you!"
