Sure enough, selfish people always think about themselves.

"You don't coax me, the academy eats well, it's much better than the family, you live here, the patriarch didn't let you pay the money, and you can earn money yourself, what do you have to complain about? I really need to make up for my body, do you know how tired I am from studying all day long? After Zeng Guixiang finished speaking, he stuffed the wild egg into his mouth, and then stared at Zeng Rong's hand.

This time he didn't take a shot to grab it, not that he didn't want to, but Zeng Rong was already on guard, and he had already taken a few steps back with the egg, "Little sister has been hungry for a long time, can you bear to grab it again?" ”

"By the way, sister, it's been more than half a month since you moved here, how much money did you make, can you give a little to the second brother first?" Zeng Guixiang changed the topic while taking off his wet clothes.

"Well, all the medicinal materials collected these days are here, and I haven't sold them yet, so I won't tell you, I can't get a penny out of my hand now." Zeng Rong pointed to the medicinal herbs in the basket.

Seeing that Zeng Guixiang pursed his lips, obviously not believing her words, Zeng Rong continued: "Second brother, don't beat my idea, if I can't come up with ten taels of silver at the end of the year, my father and mother will have to sell me." ”

"You mean you can really earn ten taels of silver this year?" Zeng Guixiang suspiciously pulled the medicinal herbs in the basket.

He didn't know anything else, he knew the honeysuckle and plantain in the basket, in addition to the incense and wormwood, these things are too common, in the spring, there are all over the mountains, if it is really valuable, it will not be robbed long ago?

"To be honest, I don't have any confidence, so we can't afford to eat a few wild eggs when we pick them up, so we have to sell them together for money." Zeng Rong said as he found a basket and put Zeng Guixiang's wet clothes on it.

"If you want me to say, it's not bad to sell to a big family to be a maid, not only can you eat and clothe yourself, but you also have a few hundred dollars a month, not better than changing relatives, not better than you?" When Zeng Guixiang heard Zeng Rong's words, he was a little anxious, he was afraid that Zeng Rongbai would delay for a year.

"What did the second brother say? The eldest sister is kind enough to earn money for you and the eldest brother, but not only are you not grateful, why do you still want to sell the eldest sister. Zeng Hua couldn't help but scold Zeng Guixiang.

"Hey, what do you know about this little girl?" Zeng Guixiang knocked Zeng Hua's head, but he didn't say anything more, turned around and went out, he had to go to school.

Watching his back turn around the corner, Zeng Hua looked at Zeng Rong with concern, "Eldest sister, can we earn ten taels of silver?" ”

"Okay, this is the eldest sister's business, you are still young, listen to the eldest sister, don't worry about it first, it's better like this, while the rain is light, you and I will go to the town to see how much these medicinal materials can be sold for."

Originally, Zeng Rong didn't have to be in such a hurry, but Zeng Guixiang made such a fuss, and she couldn't sit still.

Because she suddenly thought of a question, what should she do if she didn't meet Xu Jing in this life, or take a step back and say, if she can't persuade Mrs. Xu to take her to Beijing, what should she do?

After all, the situation in this life is not the same as in the previous life, she doesn't want to sell herself to the Xu family anymore, without this premise, is Mrs. Xu willing to take this risk to take her into Beijing?

Another one, she is no longer a six-year-old Zeng Hua, but a twelve-year-old Zeng Rong, who is two years older than Xu Jing, will Xu Jing still accept her?

But no matter what, she has to go to Beijing, even if the Xu family refuses to take her, she has to go by herself, so that she must have silver in her hand.

For this reason, she didn't want to delay any longer, because she knew that there was a lot of rain in the south in spring, and when it rained, it was muddy everywhere, and she couldn't go up the mountain to collect medicine, so she wanted to use the rainy day to embroider silk handkerchiefs.

And the reason why she wanted to take Zeng Hua was because she was not familiar with the town at all, but Zeng Hua was different, she lived to be twelve years old in her last life, she should have been to the town a few times, right?

Who knew that Zeng Hua shook her head busily when she heard that she was going to the town, because it was time for her to go home, and there was still a bunch of housework waiting for her at home.

Zeng Rong couldn't force her when she saw this, and now she didn't have the ability to bring her out, so in order to avoid a bigger conflict, she could only endure it.

After sending Zeng Hua away, Zeng Rong went to Granny Liu's side, helped Granny Liu choose a meal, and helped her cook on the fire.

While eating, Zeng Guixiang ran in again, he came to get his clothes, and originally wanted to eat with Zeng Rong, but when he saw that Zeng Rong only had half a bowl of rice and a little greens in his bowl, he had to leave in a huff.

After the meal, seeing that the rain had stopped, Zeng Rong took down a basket from the hook in the corner of the wall, and there were more than a dozen cloth bags in the basket, and each cloth bag was pasted with a note marked with the name of the medicinal herb, these notes were left by Ouyang Si, and these cloth bags were made up by Zeng Rong by dismantling a few old clothes from his mother's lifetime.

Carrying the basket, she and Granny Liu came to the town, this is the first time she came to the town, and only then did she know that Qinghu Town is not far from the academy, it doesn't take half an hour to walk, the whole town is not big, just a main street, the main street is not wide, not even a carriage can pass, the street is paved with cobblestones, most of the shops on both sides, there are also houses.

There are a total of two pharmacies on the street, Zeng Rong followed Ouyang Si's advice and went directly into a pharmacy called "Jimin", probably because it was a rainy day, there was no patient in the store except for two guys, and when he saw Granny Liu and Zeng Rong entering the door, the two guys were busy smiling and greeting each other.

Zeng Rong explained his intentions, then put the basket in front of the two guys, and then opened the cloth bag again.

The two guys didn't take it when they saw that Zeng Rong had sorted and packaged the medicinal herbs, but glanced at Zeng Rong, "The girl's surname is Zeng?" ”

"You know me?" Zeng Rong was not sure if the eldest sister had entered the pharmacy in the previous life, so he did not dare to reply easily.

"I don't know, it was Mr. Ouyang who came to entrust our host, saying that Miss Zeng studied with him to collect medicines, and asked our host to help take care of them, and we also guessed the names of these medicinal materials." One of the young men, Rifle, pointed to the note pressed under the cloth bag and smiled.

Zeng Rong was ashamed when he heard this, but he was afraid that this favor would be even more difficult to return.

Probably seeing Zeng Rong's embarrassment, another guy named Ah Wang said with a smile: "Miss Zeng, don't worry, Mr. Ouyang just asked us not to bully, and didn't ask us to take extra care of you." ”

"It's so good, there are two little brothers." Zeng Rong breathed a sigh of relief and replied with a smile.

With these words, Zeng Rong didn't have to work hard to bargain, so a quarter of an hour later, she took the one hundred and eighty yuan handed over by the other party, and when she was about to go out, an acquaintance came in, Wang Yapo.
