The Fallen Medicine Woman: The Daily Life of Chun Nuan-Chapter 134 - 107: Scheming (Part 2)

I should have seriously studied medicine with Grandpa earlier. Being a doctor with skills is pretty good. She makes medicine, treats her own ailments, wouldn’t that be a perfect husband and wife partnership?

Or, like my second brother, study hard. If she recites poetry, at least I could respond with a line or two.

Just like a moment ago, I didn’t even know how to respond to her words. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

On reflection, I realized that it seems I really don’t have any strengths.

"But don’t worry, I will definitely become capable in the future, earn a lot of money, and let you live a life without worries."

This was the only good point Zhao Minghua could come up with after thinking for a long time, though he wasn’t sure if it counted in Chun Nuan’s eyes, after all, she could ensure a worry-free life on her own.

"Earning money, how do you plan to earn it, and how much?"

Zhao Minghua thought for a moment and said he wanted to become the richest man in Great Xia.

"Then you can take care of your relatives in Shu City, and perhaps find a way to bring your relatives back from the Northern Desert." Zhao Minghua knew that Chun Nuan was always concerned about the reunion of her family and expressed his willingness to help her.

"Then what else are you seeking in marrying me?"

Zhao Minghua... does he really have to say it?

"In the eyes of other girls, it might be real affection, feelings, and love." Chun Nuan said calmly, "But in my eyes, men are divided into useful and useless types. Those beneficial to me are useful, and naturally, the one I marry must be useful too. If a man is useless, I won’t agree to marry him. After all, I have heavy responsibilities behind me, and marrying someone would only distract me from taking care of them."

"I..."

"Go ahead, a man should speak decisively, stuttering only makes me feel that there’s no need to continue the conversation."

"I’ll say it then, but don’t get angry."

"Go ahead." Angry? What’s there to be angry about? If I got angry at everything, I’d have been long dead from anger!

Someone who understands medicine and knows how to treat ailments, she surely wouldn’t make things difficult for herself.

"I actually think you’re great, good at everything, especially very capable and intelligent. If we work together to make money, we might really become the wealthiest in Great Xia."

"Aren’t we already cooperating? Why do we have to bind it for a lifetime, using marriage to constrain me?"

See, my intuition was right.

Zhao Minghua, this guy may seem a certain way on the surface, but in reality, he’s quite clever. He has a personal weighing balance, and anyone who truly believes he loves them is a fool.

"It’s different, really different." Zhao Minghua was getting anxious, "Currently, in cooperation, you could be me, it could be Old Master Zhang, in the future, it could also be Mr. Wang or Mr. Chen..."

As long as someone offers her a bit more profit, they could directly poach her business.

The thing Zhao Minghua couldn’t bear was watching money slip away right before his eyes.

"You mean, if I marry into the Zhao family, you’ll run the business while letting me manage it, using a marriage certificate to bind me, having me help you make money, to become the wealthiest in Great Xia?"

"No, no." Zhao Minghua hurriedly shook his head and solemnly clarified, "I want to marry you because I feel you bring wealth, like the Wealth Boy by the God of Wealth; I want to marry you also to treat you as a respected lady, never to constrain or bully you..."

Chun Nuan... Mrs. Zhao, oh Mrs. Zhao, come listen to what your beloved son is saying!

Uh, no, come listen to the truth your son is speaking.

Indeed, Chun Nuan felt that in this discussion, Mrs. Zhao’s determination to seek marriage was far greater than Zhao Minghua’s.

That’s why she decided to have an open conversation with Zhao Minghua and place everything upfront. Even if the match didn’t work, at least the friendship as business partners would remain. She hoped not to turn partners into enemies due to an inexplicable binding together.

Qingsheng listened to his young master speak and again looked up at the sky.

Really, the young master considers himself smart. No, no, the Zhao Family all think the young master is smart, but today, in this conversation with Miss Xiao, the third young master lost, and he lost thoroughly.

Moreover, Qingsheng found it unbelievable. Despite the fact that the third young master could sneak over their wall and peer into the neighbor’s yard filled with bamboo until he could no longer peek, who would have thought that the deep affection they held in their minds became all about business in his words!

Should this be told to Mrs. Zhao?

Well, I probably don’t have to inform Mrs. Zhao since the young master already lost badly in this round.
