Chapter 24 Departure
Yan Xiaoyue's Yinhuazhuang is thriving, and Mu Zigui's "Good Again" business is also very stable, and it has maintained an average net income of 800 taels per month in the past two months, and I believe that after a while, the business will be better.
Time passed unhurriedly, and when it came to June, the store re-added honey preserved fruits, and added a new row of cabinets against the wall, and put on the rose honey syrup, which was made by crushing the roses and mixing them with honey to ferment for a period of time, with a sweet taste and strong fragrance, especially with the functions of whitening and nourishing the skin, regulating blood and gas, and eliminating fatigue.
They are all packed in white porcelain jars, one catty and one can, and each jar is five taels of silver, which is very popular with everyone's ladies. Since the addition of these two things, the store's income has immediately exceeded 1,000 taels.
In September, when things were on the right track at the farm, Yan Xiaoyue found an opportunity to talk to Mu Zigui.
"Brother Zigui, I have something I want to discuss with you."
Mu Zigui was very strange, Xiao Yue didn't say anything to discuss about such a big thing as Jian Zhuangzi, I am afraid that it is not a trivial matter to say this, so he asked a little anxiously: "What's wrong, is there something wrong, I'll figure it out first." ”
As soon as Yan Xiaoyue heard that Zigui was thinking about it, she was moved and said: "Brother Zigui, don't worry, nothing happened, it's all right." It's my own business, and I want to go out and travel for a while. After Xiao Yue finished speaking, she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Zigui, she knew how selfish she was in doing this, she brought Zigui to the imperial city, and now she has to throw everything to him and go out.
Mu Zigui was stunned, a little dazed for a while, thinking that he had heard it wrong, "What did you say?" ”
Yan Xiaoyue still lowered her mouth, but said in a firm tone: "Brother Zigui, I want to go out to travel." ”
Muzi's heart sank, in the past few years of contact, he knew herself better than Yan Xiaoyue, if he asked Yan Xiaoyue and still didn't change his mind, then he didn't need to say anything to dissuade him. Even he wondered if he resolutely refused to let him, would Satsuki suddenly disappear and never go back? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder, this was the result he couldn't accept, for so many years, he was used to having her by his side, used to eating with her, discussing how much silver he made this month, and getting used to the days when everyone went out to play together, but now she is leaving, is the young eagle going to fly by herself when she grows up?
He asked bitterly, "Where are you going?" Do you want to pay it back? ”
Yan Xiaoyue was startled, quickly raised her head, and looked at Zigui's pale face worriedly, "Brother Zigui, what's wrong with you?" Isn't it uncomfortable? After speaking, he used his hand to support Zigui.
Zigui smiled sadly, do you still know that you care about him? Stubbornly asked: "I'm fine, where do you want to go, and you can't come back?" ”
Yan Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, and said eagerly: "Of course I'm back, this is my home, Zigui brother, you are still here, why don't I come back?" I just want to go out and have a look while I'm young, or I won't be able to leave when I get married in the future. ”
When Mu Zigui heard the first two sentences, he only felt that everything was revived and the world was splendid. It turns out that she is back, this is her home, and he is still here. That's nice. The tone changed, "Well, where are you going?" You have to bring all four maids. And the things you are used to, what else do you need to bring, list them one by one, and I will help you prepare. ”
Yan Xiaoyue hurriedly stopped, "Brother Zigui, I will take four maids all the way to the south along the Qing River, to see the scenery of the Great Zhou Dynasty, don't bring anything else, it's not good if it's not too conspicuous." ”
Yan Zigui thought about it, but after all, he couldn't let go of his heart, and he was busy helping Zhang Luo.
On September 16, the second year of Emperor Zong, Yan Xiaoyue set off with four maids and Uncle Zhang, but Zigui was still not at ease in the end, so he asked Uncle Zhang to follow him to be a coachman.
Yan Xiaoyue took a boat all the way down the Qing River to the south, this is a merchant ship that Zigui helped find, the scale is very large, Xiaoyue directly brought the carriage up. There were many people standing on the deck of the ship, all dressed in rich and noble families, and I don't know when Zigui met such a friend.
On this day, the weather was fine, Yan Xiaoyue and Jin Qiao were basking in the sun on the deck, Xiaoyue, who was already nine and a half years old, was a big knot, and she was almost one meter five by eye, and a pink sandwich skirt lined her with a beautiful and jade. Not far away, a few young people kept their eyes on her, and finally a young man in a blue brocade robe tidied up his clothes and walked this way.
He bowed and said, "Xiaosheng Jiang Siqi, I've seen Miss, I don't know where Miss is going?" ”
Yan Xiaoyue looked up, about twelve years old, a little kid who didn't have any hair, he actually took the horse here, I really don't know what to say, Xiaoyue turned her head directly and ignored him.
Jiang Siqi quit, what does this mean, he actually gave him the back of his head. You must know that in addition to suffering in front of his eldest brother and grandfather, no one else dares to do this to him. Immediately forgive: "Stinky girl, what did my son call you, you don't have long ears?" ”
Yan Xiaoyue couldn't help it, she really didn't want to worry about a little kid, "Do you have something to do, I won't have time, if you have something to call the boat owner." He turned to Jin Qiao and said, "Let's go." ”
Jiang Siqi stopped with his hand, "Don't go, you haven't told me who you are and where are you going?" ”
Yan Xiaoyue said inexplicably: "Why should I tell you?" ”
Jiang Siqi said domineeringly: "If this son asks you to say it, you have to say it, otherwise don't blame me for being polite." ”
Yan Xiaoyue sneered, "Hmph, I just want to see how you are polite." ”
Jiang Siqi said to Xiao Si behind him: "You go up, grab her maid and ask, if you can't ask, you will punish me." The four boys behind him stepped forward and responded: "Yes, second son." ”
Yan Xiaoyue said to Jin Qiao: "If they dare to come up, don't be polite, just don't beat people to death." ”
Jiang Siqi was extremely angry, "Okay, I can't breathe, my son is angry, you give it to me and kill that girl." ”
Under his order, the four little guys rushed up, Xiao Yue stepped aside to make room for Jin Qiao, and as soon as the four Xiao Si went up and didn't touch Jin Qiao's clothes, they were thrown out of two, and the other two were also kicked to the ground by two feet.
Yan Xiaoyue glanced at Jiang Siqi and sneered: "It's a shame that you bring out such goods." ”
Jiang Siqi was taken aback, and she was a little timid and wanted to retreat, but she was so stimulated by Yan Xiaoyue that she lost her reason and ran into Xiaoyue, but before she knew what was going on, she was knocked to the ground by Xiaoyue, and then stepped on her waist with her foot.
Seeing Jiang Siqi lying on the ground in the shape of a crab, shouting and scolding in her mouth, Yan Xiaoyue mischievously pulled out the rattan whip wrapped around her waist and threw it on Jiang Siqi's side.
