Zhou Ran pondered for a moment, looked at Shopkeeper Ren's confident expression, smiled, and said: "The conditions proposed by Shopkeeper Ren are indeed very attractive, let me think about it."

Shopkeeper Ren smiled proudly and said, "Mrs. Zhou, think about it carefully. I'm waiting for Mrs. Zhou's reply."

"Okay." Zhou Ran responded and said, "I'm a little tired, so I won't invite shopkeeper Ren to tea today."

Shopkeeper Ren heard this, although he was a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything more. He nodded and said: "I came at the wrong time. Madam Zhou has a good rest that week, so I won't disturb you. These are the wishes of our boss." , Mrs. Zhou, please accept it first."

After shopkeeper Ren finished speaking, the boy behind him took a step forward holding the gift box.

Zhou Ran gestured to the big girl, and the big girl went over and took the gift box from the boy's arms.

After Shopkeeper Ren and the others left, Da Niu held the gift box in her arms and asked curiously: "Master, are you really ready to cooperate with Jinhua Embroidery Workshop?"

Zhou Ran shook her head and said, "No, I just don't want to get entangled with them."

Although the conditions mentioned by Jinhua Embroidery Fang are indeed excellent, if she really agrees to Jinhua Embroidery Fang, who knows what kind of price Jinhua Embroidery Fang can offer in the future.

Judging from the previous behavior of the owner of Jinhua Embroidery Square, he is not a principled person.

Shopkeeper Ren said the price was 10% higher than that of Linglong Embroidery Workshop, but when the time comes that Linglong Embroidery Workshop will no longer exist, it will not be up to them.

What's more, her previous cooperation with Linglong Embroidery Workshop has been quite pleasant, so there is no need to break the contract at this time.

Hearing this, the girl smiled and said, "I also think Linglong Embroidery Workshop is pretty good."

Shopkeeper Ren's attitude made Da Niu feel uncomfortable.

"What should I do with these things?" Da Niu asked, pointing to the gifts sent by Jinhua Embroidery Workshop.

Zhou Ran took a look and said to Zhao Wu: "You can exchange it for rice and noodles and give it to the homeless and beggars in the city."

Shopkeeper Ren went to find out about Zhou Ran, but shopkeeper Han only found out that night.

After receiving the news, she didn't care that it was late and hurried out to Qian Dong's home.

Mr. Qian was just about to make out with his beautiful concubine when he heard his servants coming to report that shopkeeper Han was here. He ignored the concubine's coquettishness and put on his clothes and went to the study.

"Why are you here with me at this time?" Qian Dongjia asked as soon as he entered the door.

Shopkeeper Han told Shopkeeper Ren that he brought gifts to Zhou Ran today. Zhou Ran told Boss Qian about accepting the gifts, and then asked: "Boss, what should we do now? Madam Zhou will not have discussed with Jinhua Embroidery Shop. Is it ready? It’s said that Shopkeeper Peng hasn’t sent Mrs. Zhou’s embroidery for quite some time.”

In the past, Zhou Ran would send one or two embroidery works to Linglong Embroidery Workshop every one or two months, but now more than three months have passed, and Zhou Ran has not sent any new embroidery works to the embroidery workshop. .

Qian Dongjia was originally very confident in the cooperation between him and Zhou Ran, but now he is a little unsure.

After frowning and thinking for a while, Qian Dongjia said: "Tomorrow I will go visit Mrs. Zhou first."

Zhou Ran didn't sleep well that night, and when she woke up the next day, she felt a little unenergetic.

She had hardly slept alone for more than two years, and now that Ye Ximing was missing from her side, it was hard for her to get used to it.

In the morning, she watched Da Niu and A Hua practice their embroidery skills all morning. After lunch, she was going to take a nap to relax, but she heard that Qian Dong's family was coming. Zhou Ran thought for a moment and met Qian Dong's family in the yard.

As soon as Mr. Qian saw Zhou Ran, he smiled and said, "Ms. Zhou, Mr. Qian has taken the liberty to come to the door. I hope not to disturb Mrs. Zhou."

Zhou Ran smiled and said: "It's too late for Mr. Qian's family to come to welcome me, so how can we disturb the conversation? But Mr. Qian's family came to visit today because they have something to do with me, right?"

Qian Dongjia did not hide it, but directly admitted: "Mrs. Zhou is right. Originally, I knew that Ms. Zhou was accompanying my husband to take the provincial examination. I didn't want to disturb Ms. Zhou at this time. I just heard that yesterday People from Jinhua Embroidery Square have come to see Mrs. Zhou, and I can’t sit still.”

Zhou Ran nodded and said: "Shopkeeper Ren of Jinhua Embroidery Workshop did come to see me yesterday. He proposed that Jinhua Embroidery Workshop is willing to purchase Liuguang Pavilion's embroidery products at a price that is 10% higher than Linglong Embroidery Workshop."

When Boss Qian heard this, he frowned. It was not that he couldn't pay the price given by Jinhua Embroidery Workshop, but if he paid it at this price, the profit of their Linglong Embroidery Workshop would be very small.

By offering such a price, is Jinhua Embroidery not prepared to make money?
Jinhua Embroidery Fang is not someone who likes to do charity.

Zhou Ran looked at Qian Dongjia's face, smiled, and said: "Qian Dongjia can rest assured that I have no intention of cooperating with Jinhua Embroidery Fang. What kind of behavior is the owner of Jinhua Embroidery Fang? More than two years ago I have understood it before, and I will not be dazzled by the benefits they promise."

After listening to Zhou Ran's words, Boss Qian's heart finally settled, "Ms. Zhou is really not an ordinary person, but I underestimated Mrs. Zhou."

Zhou Ran: "I am a person with a strong spirit of covenant, so Mr. Qian, you can rest assured that I will not change partners casually until Linglong Embroidery Workshop does anything sorry for me."

Boss Qian nodded and assured: "Ms. Zhou, there is no need to worry about this. I, Mr. Qian, never do that kind of thing of stabbing my partners in the back."

After Qian Dongjia chatted with Zhou Ran, he left the gift and left.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. On the eleventh week of August, Ran went to wait for Ye Ximing outside the Gongyuan early.

After Ye Ximing and the others came out, Zhou Ran felt relieved when he saw that although Ye Ximing's face was a little tired, he was still in good spirits, and unlike some candidates who were almost swaying in their steps.

She stepped forward and took Ye Ximing's hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work. The food at home is ready. Let's go back, eat and have a good sleep."

"Okay." Ye Ximing squeezed Zhou Ran's hand that was about to withdraw, smiled, and turned to look at Wei Yan and Cao Bingwen behind him.

Only then did Zhou Ran notice that Cao Bingwen and Wei Yan had also come out.

Wei Yan looked a little better, but Cao Bingwen looked extremely weak.

"Is Mr. Cao okay?" Zhou Ran asked politely, "Do you want a doctor to come and take a look?"

Cao Bingwen bowed his hands and said, "Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law. I'm just tired. I just need to go back and have a rest. I don't need to see a doctor."

Zhou Ran didn't say much after hearing this, and got on Zhao Wujia's carriage with Ye Ximing.

Cao Bingwen and Wei Yan got on the Wei family's carriage.

Back in the yard, the food was already on the table.

After eating and taking a bath, Zhou Ran urged Ye Ximing to go to bed.

Ye Ximing was lying on the bed, looking at Zhou Ran who was about to go out, and pulled her and said: "You sleep with me, I can't sleep without you."
