Early the next morning.

As soon as Qin Li rushed to Hu Ji Pharmacy, he found an opportunity to ask Hu Yao, "You went out last night, did you find someone who is willing to testify for me?" ”

Hu Yao shook his head slightly, pretending to be very embarrassed and said, "Sister Li'er, I originally thought that it would be easy to help you with such a favor. But I didn't think about it, none of the people around Zhai Gongzi were good talkers, so they didn't help you get things done.

Hearing this, Qin Li felt a little regretful in his heart. But I know in my heart that Brother Yao'er has done his best, even if he can't invite a witness, he still has to thank Brother Yao'er.

After finishing work that day, as soon as Qin Li sat in the carriage, he discussed with Guo and invited Hu Langzhong and Yao'er's younger brother to go to their house for dinner.

Guo gladly agreed, personally went to Hu's mansion, and invited Hu Langzhong's two masters and apprentices to their home for dinner.

Hu Langzhong listened to it and asked the mansion to arrange a carriage to send him and Hu Yao to the Qin Mansion for a gathering.

After Qin Li returned home, she dined with her mother in the private room, and did not go to the warm pavilion to eat.

There was a brazier in the private room, and Ziqin added some charcoal to the brazier, poured a cup of hot tea for Qin Li and Guo, and then left the private room.

Qin Li sat at the dining table and ate fish hot pot with Guo.

The fish was sent by Uncle Shi last night, and it was specially given to them to cook soup and drink.

Guo Shi filled a bowl of fish soup for Qin Li and said, "Drink more." This fish soup tastes good, and when your grandparents were alive, they loved to drink this fish soup, and it was delicious. Every time a merchant ship docked, people had to buy fish and go home to cook soup and drink. ”

"The third prince also said that the silver carp in our Jiayu Mansion is delicious." Qin Li thought that after Zhao Sheng came to Jiayu Mansion, he even asked people to send them fish and meat, and he was very grateful.

I don't know if after Uncle Shi returns to the imperial city, when he mentions some things about Prince An to the emperor, will the emperor allow Zhao Sheng to leave the palace and come to Jiayu Mansion to repair the bridge?

If she can, when Zhao Sheng comes to Jiayu Mansion next year, she will buy more silver carp and cook for Zhao Sheng.

Guo only heard Qin Li mention the third prince, and quickly guessed her thoughts, and said: "The third prince likes to eat silver carp in Jiayu Land, and when he comes to us next year, we can invite him to eat." ”

Qin Li bent his eyes and smiled, "Okay." ”

Before that, Guo had told her that the third son might be about to get married. In the future, even if he comes to Jiayu Mansion, I am afraid that he will not follow his master to their house as a guest as before.

Because a prince who married a princess has to avoid suspicion.

When she heard that, she felt very uncomfortable. In this plane, no matter where she goes, she must know the rules.

There are too many rules, and they are annoying.

Guo Shi served Qin Li another bowl of fish soup, and when Qin Li drank the soup, he sandwiched a chicken leg for her and asked her to eat more. said that during this time, she went to work in the pharmacy every day, and she was also very tired.

Qin Li was very obedient, drank the fish soup, ate the chicken legs, and ate a bowl of rice.

After meals.

Qin Li felt a little supportive, so she stood up and wanted to go for a walk in the backyard.

As soon as Guo Shi saw Qin Li walking towards the wooden door, he persuaded: "Li'er, although it hasn't snowed today, it's still very cold. Just walk around the house and don't go out. ”

Hearing this, Qin Li couldn't insist on going out for a walk, so he could only stand by the coffee table, take a cup of tea, and chat with Guo.

The mother and daughter chatted, chatted and chatted, and talked about the annoying Mozhu.

"Your father was invited to the government by several government officials this afternoon, saying that they had found Mozhu and asked your father to bring her back to the house."

Qin Li looked stunned, before that, she asked Yao'er's younger brother to help her find a witness, so as to prove that Mozhu was taken away by Fu Yu. But after Yao'er's younger brother went to the Qinfang painting boat, he didn't get things done.

In this way, she had no choice but to give up.

But she didn't think about it, the people in the government were quite fast, and within three days, they found Mozhu for her. Just found it, she found it, she didn't want Mo Zhu to return to Qin Mansion.

"Mother, didn't I tell you and my father? Mo Zhu must have left with Fu Yu. She is so willing to be with Fu Yu, what are we going to do when we take her back? ”

Could it be that Mo Zhu came back and let Mo Zhu continue to harm them?

Therefore, she told her father and mother at the time, "Since Fu Yu likes to find women like Moyu and Mozhu, and Mozhu is willing to listen to Fu Yu's words, and paste it to Fu Yu." Then, we have to fulfill Mozhu and Fu Yu, so that they 'have lovers' and eventually become married. ”

Guo Shi saw that Qin Li was a little displeased, and he knew Qin Li's thoughts. With an embarrassed smile, he said:

"Li'er, are you worried, afraid that your father will really take Mozhu back and steal your jewelry or something?"

"Exactly." Qin Li admitted it very frankly.

Guo chuckled softly, "Haha." Then he glanced at Qin Li and said:

"You kid, how can you say about you? It's not that your father doesn't know what kind of person Mozhu is. We all treat her well, but like Moyu, she is still doing something to hurt us in secret. In this way, how could your father agree to those people to take Mozhu back? ”

When Qin Li heard this, he finally felt relieved.

As long as Mozhu doesn't return to the Qin Mansion, it's fine. Mo Zhu is not a servant girl in the Qin Mansion, not only can they feel at ease, but for her, she can also save a little silver taels.

That Mozhu does work in their house, dressing, eating, lodging, etc., don't they have to provide for Mozhu?

There weren't many people in the family, and there weren't many maidservants to do the work. In her opinion, only the nurse Liu, as well as Ziqin, who has been with her mother for many years, and her personal maid Qinghe and others, should be about the same.

Of course, the cooks who came to cook for them had to be kept. Although she can cook herself, she has to go to the pharmacy during the day to work, but she has no time to cook.

The little guy who drove the car had to be kept, or the horses were not fed and the carriage was not driven, so it would not be very convenient to go out.

The shopkeeper must also keep it......

Just as Qin Li was thinking about it, he heard Guo's words:

"Li'er, without Moyu and Mozhu at home, we can indeed live a comfortable life. It's just that there are two less maidservants in the family, if an outsider comes to the house as a guest, and sees that there are only a few people in our family, it will inevitably ......"

Qin Li quickly understood Guo's thoughts, he wanted to tell her that she had to buy a few more maids to come back. Even if they don't need to do much work, they can't let people come to their house and say that their family is too shabby.

She didn't want to spend this unjust money, so she persuaded Guo Shidao:

"Mother, if you want to buy a maid back, it's rare to buy a reassuring one. You see, you bought the ink jade and ink bamboo, right? ”

Guo nodded.

Qin Li knew that Guo still remembered some things, so he lost no time in saying his opinion:

"They have been coming to our house for so many years, what else can they do besides hurting us? Therefore, it is always better to buy it outside, Ziqin and Qinghe, who have grown up in our parents since childhood, make people feel relieved. In this way, there is no need to bring back a few more handmaidens. ”

Guo Shi felt a dilemma in his heart.

In fact, Li'er is right, the maid she bought outside is not someone they know, and of course she can't make them feel very relieved.

But Ziqin and Qinghe are not young, and they have reached the age of marriage. As the head of the Qin Mansion, she can't leave Ziqin and Qinghe at home and delay their lifelong events.
