It is the lord behind the curtain who thanked the neighbor that was so generous.

An old woman bought steamed buns, and after a little warmth, she slowly walked to the door.

Lin Archie unfolded the letter, and the place where the letter was opened was the familiar fluttering flying body of Yunqi: Archie personally opened.

Lin Aqi curled the corners of his lips to continue reading.

"Xie Ai's identity has been done, using the identity of the Xie family in Raoshui Jiangdong, the eldest son of the eldest house has a concubine who accidentally fell from a horse and died a year ago. Therefore, there is no need to take another surname, just continue to use it as usual. ”

Later, some of the ins and outs of this Xie family were explained in detail, and the Xie family's patrons are now working under the banner of King Ming, so it is not a big deal to use an identity.

"Xie Guyin." Xie Ai whispered softly, "It's a good name, but it's a pity that the girl died young." ”

Lin Archie hugged her: "So God also sent you to live well for her." ”

Xie Ai smiled softly: "Thank you King Ming this time, he must have spent a lot of effort to help me." ”

"It's okay, he left it to Qi Feng to do, you can make a few more buns and give them to express your gratitude."

"How do you make a few buns? When I get revenge, I will give the secret recipe to King Ducheng. ”

"Sister Xie, you are so generous, hahaha......"

"Don't make fun of me."

The two girls pushed and tickled, causing the two cooks in the back kitchen to laugh.

The shopkeeper and the manager are all capable people in the store, and the four women working together saves a lot of trouble.

In addition to handling all kinds of things, Xie Ai also took on heavy tasks such as carrying things and picking flour, and Lin Aqi summed it up, so he simply invited a guy with good personal strength, but this person had to be carefully selected.

As for opening another store, it's better to discuss it with Yunqi.

"Why do you want to discuss with King Ming?"

In the courtyard of the Lin family, the little lackey ran and jumped alone after a big duck in the courtyard, causing some other chickens and ducks to howl.

The three of them sat around the house to bake the fire, Lin Shaxiang looked at the account books with his eyebrows, and after studying it, he said to the two girls: "It's only been open for more than a month now, so it's not appropriate to open a new store." ”

Xie Ai nodded and said: "I think the same way, we haven't known how the sales will be after the price increase, why don't we make plans after the New Year?" ”

Lin Aqi nodded: "That's good, Shi Niang must have more understanding of the outside when she goes out this time, and when Shi Niang comes back to listen to her story, we will discuss with that Qi rich businessman, or find Yunqi to cooperate, but at that time the initiative is still in our hands." ”

"Hmm." Xie Ai smiled.

"Okay." Lin Shaxiang also nodded.

Lin Aqi wrote back to Yunqi, asking him to pay more attention to the movement of opening a new store, and tell him about recruiting another guy to do heavy things, as for carrying a pack of freshly baked buns.

Now that Yunqi has arrived in Yufu, where Jiang Zhan is located, the correspondence schedule has been one more day, so Lin Aqi specially put two more layers of protective box cover around the bun.

"It's cold, so you shouldn't have too much damage to the package."

"When you get there, remember to say hello to the prince for me." Lin Aqi handed the burden to the person who delivered the letter, and the person quickly disappeared into the sea of people after saluting.

There are a lot of dark lines in the Ming King, and Lin Aqi is not worried that someone will poison the buns.

When Yun Qi took the heavy food box from Qi Attack's hand, his mood was very complicated.

"Have you eaten her buns?"

Qi Feng shook his head: "No." ”

The prince has never eaten it, how can he have eaten it?

Yunqi is in an even worse mood, she hasn't given it to him for so long, how can she do something good for her? This is a gift of thanking the bun as a thank you, not a gift of missing him.

Yunqi dismantled the outer packaging, layer after layer, and until the end, he found that there were two layers of sealing strips on it.

Yun Qi smiled: "This girl is very clever, and she can also think of this kind of anti-poison measure." ”

Qi Feng looked curiously for a long time with his hands behind his back before he understood what was on it.

"Bring the knife."

Yunqi cut the rope, and the box could reveal a lock, and there was a small precision lock under the lock, which had to be unlocked with Yunqi's double plum dart.

"How did she make this lock?" Qi Feng was stunned, he had never seen such a thorough anti-poison measure.

Yun Qi looked at his reaction, and his mood finally improved a lot.

"She didn't make it, her master studied it."

"Huh? Lin Shaxiang? ”

Yun nodded and took out a few buns surrounded by ice: "Mr. Lin is good at studying this way, and many things in the Lin family are developed by him. ”

Qi Feng thought of the most representative bamboo basket cart and couldn't help laughing.

"Go ahead, heat up the buns, and eat this for dinner."

Qi Feng suppressed his smile: "Yes." ”

Lin Aqi also eats steamed buns for dinner, and at the moment she is nibbling on a big meat bun, watching the master carve the window grilles to be used this year.

"Master, this little pig you carved is becoming more and more like a little lackey."

When the puppy on the ground heard this, he curiously stopped and rubbed to Lin Shaxiang's side, and barked twice at the small statue in his hand.

Lin Shaxiang smiled: "How can there be a little pig?" That's what I carved. ”

The big hand rubbed the puppy's head, and the little lackey barked twice more in satisfaction before running away.

Lin Aqi shook his head, chewed the last two bites, ran into the house and took out another red paper: "Master, you cut the little lackey, is it possible to stick its baby elephant to the window?" ”

Lin Shaxiang choked: "I'm not stupid, what are you doing sticking a puppy to the window?" ”

Xie Wei watched them talk, and kept a smile on his face.

Lin Aqi snorted: "Then you should quickly cut some flowers and grass, lest the master come back and let you stick the puppy." ”

"I don't stick puppies."

"If you cut it, you have to paste it."

"I don't post it, I want to post it."

"You cut it! You're going to post—"

"I won't post it, and I won't post it if I cut it."

"Why don't you cut it if you don't stick it? Do you put it on yourself......"

An old man and a young man were chattering, and the whole Lin family was full of laughter, just when it was dark and every household lit an oil lamp, a shout came from outside the Lin family's courtyard: "Is Master Lin at home?" Come and pick up some wedding cards—"

It turned out that someone from the Liu family came to deliver the wedding card.

Lin Aqi ran out of the house and opened the courtyard door, the person who came was Liu Ren's second uncle, Lin Aqi said, "Second Uncle Liu is good", and he sent a red paper to her: "Three days later, Liu Ren will get married, you and your master, and Miss Xie, you have to come to eat and drink on time!" ”

Lin Aqi smiled and nodded: "It must be!" ”

Second Uncle Liu saw that she was nothing unusual, so he put down his thoughts, and went back to Liu Fugui with a smile.

"How? Is that girl crying? ”

"No, no! I looked at her as natural, not like she was hurt by love. ”

"It's not hurt by love, so why should a girl's family open a bun shop?"

Second Brother Liu couldn't answer this, he waved his hand: "What do you care about him?" Anyway, Ren'er's marriage is about to be a big deal, you still have to do the banquet or something first, but you can't let other families compare. ”

"Exactly, my son's marriage must be the best, hey, do you remember not to make too much trouble when you take someone to pick up your relatives, the last time you went back to Han's house to pick up the bride at the Little Erkou Inn, you kicked the door and lost a lot of money. This Miao family is really, I have to live in a small second family, and the cost of three nights is not for my Liu family to ......."

"I know, I know, you can rest assured that I will do things."

Liu Fugui still couldn't rest assured, and called Liu Ren again, telling him in detail that he wanted to be more gentle that day, but don't let people look down on him.

Liu Ren listened to it with a big head, why didn't his father and mother understand his mind? He didn't like that Miao Man cousin at all, he only liked Lin Archie alone! But now that the marriage is imminent, no matter how passively he resists, it is useless.

In the cold wind, the young man stood in the middle of the house and looked in the direction of the Lin family, the bag of candied fruit was held in his hand, and he didn't dare to send it for a long time.

As one of the few inns in Xixiang, the Little Erkou Inn is the only three-storey building, and it is also the inn with the best service and the most expensive price. Many people who are sent to the hotel will choose the most decent little two inns to stay.

The news that Liu Ren was going to marry had spread all over Xilin Village, and many people who wanted to find out the true face of the bride ran to the little two inn to take a look.

It's just that there are a lot of people who send relatives to Miao Man, and everyone has been discussing for a long time and they haven't found out which one is the right age Miao Man.

Lin Aqi is also one of the gossip ghosts, she sold out of buns this day, and she also pulled Xie Ai and ran to Xiao Erkou Zhang Luo.

Lin Shaxiang was about to close the stall, and saw the two of them waving at them from a distance. The two girls ran up to him quickly, and Lin Aqi smiled and said, "Master, we are not here to find you. ”

Lin Sha's hands stiffened: "Then you ......"

"We're here to see the bride."

Lin Shaxiang: ......

"Is this excitement more important than Master?"

The girl smiled coquettishly: "No! I ......"

"Archie Lin."

"Huh?" As soon as she turned around, Liu Ren stood in front of her.

Xie Ai didn't know this person, so he looked at it curiously.

"Liu Ren, why are you here? Don't you know that you can't meet your bride before marriage? Why are you still here? Can't wait? ”

In the end, it was a familiar bad smile, and Liu Ren scratched his head in embarrassment: "No, I want to tell you about candied fruit." ”

He tightened his sleeves, he had decided to keep those candied fruits privately, no matter who he married, but he always liked Lin Archie alone in his heart.

The bag of candied fruit is simply hidden, so that when you think about her, you can eat one, and when you don't want to, take a look and talk about lovesickness.

"Oh, you're done with the preserves? However, I don't have much left at home, so I can eat about the same as Xie Guyin. ”

Xie Ai reacted that she was talking about herself, and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, we are both about to run out, and we still have time to buy new ones." ”

"No, I'm not here to ask you for preserves, I mean to ......"

Lin Aqi stared at him with wide eyes, and Liu Ren suddenly couldn't speak.

This Xie Guyin is standing here, how can Lin Shaxiang also stand here......

A good man blushed and couldn't say anything for a long time.

"What the hell are you going to say? If you still want to eat it, I'll drag someone to buy it first, and I'll give it to you when I arrive. ”

"No, I don't really like it."

"What about you?"

I like you a lot.

Liu Ren's eyes were dark, but that sentence was always in his mouth, and he couldn't say it this time, I was afraid that he would never say it again in his life.

He took a deep breath and was about to express his intentions, but he heard an angry exclamation behind him: "Liu Ren! What are you doing? ”
