Zhu Huanxi said to the county lord of Jiade with a melancholy expression: "Mother, I originally wanted to compete with her once. As a result, she said that poetry and articles are not good, but they can't compare with me, and it's too boring to admit defeat. ”

Lord Jiade smiled: "This is not admitting defeat, but knowing your weaknesses." Huan Xi, there are many people in this world who are stronger than you, as long as you do your best, it doesn't matter if you are the first or not. ”

After Zhu Huanxi came back, he said that he had told her in detail about that day. Some people will think that Qingshu is unforgiving when they hear it, but the lord of Jiade County agrees with Qingshu's way of dealing with it. Some things can be tolerated, but things that cross the line cannot be tolerated. Otherwise, everyone will be able to deceive you.

Zhu Hanxi nodded, remembered what Qingshu had asked for and said, "Mother, where can I buy silver frost charcoal?" Qingshu said that the charcoal used by the female school was not good, and there was a very thick smoke, and it was so smoked that it burst into tears. ”

The lord of Jiade said with a smile: "Now I can still buy silver frost charcoal on this day, but I have more at home, so I can give them some evenly." ”

In the afternoon of the same day, the female school received 500 catties of silver frost charcoal, not two taels of silver for nothing.

The silver frost charcoal on the market is fried to ten taels and one pound and cannot be bought, and these two taels of silver and one pound are also owed a big favor.

Jian Shu knew that the county lord's mansion gave them the spare silver frost charcoal only when he saw Qing Shu's face, and said with a smile: "This girl is really my lucky star." ”

Thanks to Qingshu's escort, their group was able to reach the capital safely. And now it's sending charcoal in the snow, not what a lucky star is.

Mr. Wan said, "Jian Shu, we have to thank the Lord of Jiade. ”

"This is natural."

Qingshu went to Zong's house on the second day.

When Mrs. Zong saw Qingshu, she took her hand and said with a smile: "What a lovely and beautiful girl, don't blame your aunt for loving you so much." ”

The mother-in-law wrote to her and asked her to take care of the child. After being an in-law for so many years, my mother-in-law begged her for the first time.

That day, it was not Qi Xiangdi in the picture of the Zongda, but the lady of the Zong. She saw that Qi Xiangdi had a good character and a calm temperament, so she intended to give her her daughter. The two families are right, and Master Zong knew what she meant and readily agreed.

It turns out she chose the right person. When the daughter got married, not only was her mother-in-law generous and kind, but her son-in-law was also clean and self-conscious, and there was no mess around her. So my daughter is having a very good time. It's not like the two concubines who always come back to complain and ask the master to support them.

Qingshu smiled and said, "My aunt loves me very much, and she always complains that the two aunts don't give her a granddaughter, so she can only envy my grandmother." ”

Mrs. Zong laughed: "Your aunt also wants a daughter, but unfortunately she has never been able to do so." ”

Now that my daughter is old, she can't give birth if she wants to, so she can only hope for the next generation.

Mrs. Zong also asked Qingshu about his studies and his life in the capital.

Qingshu said truthfully about her academic performance, but as for her life, Qingshu vaguely said that Cui's didn't like her. For the rest, she didn't say much.

Mrs. Zong, as soon as she heard it, she knew that it must be Cui's who embarrassed her: "Your aunt specially wrote to me to follow the Buddha, just because I was afraid that you would be bullied." Don't be embarrassed if you come to me if you encounter any difficulties. Otherwise, your grandmother and aunt will feel distressed when they know about being wronged. ”

Qingshu responded with a smile.

Qingshu went back after lunch. Mrs. Zong and her daughter-in-law Gao said: "This child is well-behaved and caring, don't blame my mother for loving her so much." I don't know what Lin Chengyu thinks, his daughter doesn't care, but she asks for warmth to other people's children. ”

The Gao family was very disdainful of Lin Chengyu: "It's just that he married because of Cui's background, Zhongyong Marquis, which helped him in his career." As for the ex-wife and daughter, how can they take it to heart. ”

"Rat-eyed."

Once he gains power, he abandons his wife and daughter, who dares to trust such a person and who dares to use it.

In fact, not only Mrs. Zong's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked down on Lin Chengyu, but even Mrs. Zhongyong looked down on him.

Qingshu left the Zong family and said honestly to Miao: "Uncle Miao, let's go to Zhiyuan Bookstore." ”

She saw the topic yesterday about how to prevent the epidemic after the ground movement, and she only knew general knowledge points. She didn't know exactly how to do it, so she needed to buy books.

Ground movement is only one of the natural disasters, in addition to droughts, floods, frost damage, hailstorms, landslides, insect infestations, etc. Qingshu bought all the books in this area.

Although movable type printing has now appeared, books are still relatively expensive, and this is not enough to buy more than 20 books and spend more than 50 taels of silver.

Shen'er held the book and said with a smile: "Girl, I think you should open a braised meat shop, otherwise you can buy poor just by buying books." ”

The braised meat shop is so profitable, she feels a pity if it is not opened.

Qingshu shook his head and said, "Don't worry, if you want to open, you have to wait for next year." ”

"That's natural." Making money is important, but next year's exams are even more important.

Qingshu was about to get into the carriage when a teenager suddenly walked by.

The boy stumbled somehow and fell to the ground, but soon he got up from the ground.

Qingshu reflexively looked over, only to see that the young man was stunned.

The young man was wearing a thin autumn coat with patches. The facial features are handsome, the face is well-defined, and a pair of phoenix eyes are thin and long, so deep that you can't see the bottom.

Seeing Qingshu looking at him intently, the young man thought he was watching him laugh and glared back at her viciously.

Qingshu came back to his senses, and when he saw the blood stains on the corner of the young man's mouth, he couldn't help blurting out: "You, why are you injured?" ”

The young man didn't know Qingshu, and when he heard what she said, he suddenly felt that Qingshu had a brain disease. But he didn't say anything, just picked up the package on the ground and left.

Shen'er felt that Qingshu's expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Girl, do you know him?" ”

Not only does it know, this is her great benefactor in her previous life. If he hadn't saved her, she would have been beaten to death by the nuns of the Lion Nunnery

It's just that I didn't think that the high-powered Changning Bo Feiyuwei commander in his previous life had such an unsatisfactory life when he was a child.

When Shen'er saw Shu's appearance, she knew that the two were afraid that it would be as simple as not just knowing each other: "Girl, should we keep up with him?" ”

Qing Shu looked at the young man's back and shook his head, and then gave the purse full of broken silver to Jiang Fangfei: "You give this to the young man just now." ”

Jiang Fangfei shook his head and said, "Girl, that young man is very arrogant, such a person will not accept your charity." ”

Qing Shu looked stunned, indeed, people like Fu Jingene definitely don't accept other people's handouts.

Qing Shu was silent and said, "You follow him and see what he is going to do?" If you need help, give her a hand. ”

Jiang Fangfei was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask much, and chased after him.
