Chapter 630: Door-to-door propose
"Doctor Xiao, you're here." greeted Xiao Ming respectfully, and his tone was extremely respectful.
As far as he is concerned, Dr. Min and Xiao Ming are the nobles in his life, one took him in and accepted him as an apprentice, the other taught him medicine, promoted him, and now he is going to take him to the capital.
Thinking of the capital, Jin Yan's heart became hot again.
Yes, Xiao Ming wants to bring the pharmacy to the capital, there is Senior Brother Min in the capital, and he will be in charge of it when the time comes, so that her burden will be lightened.
Hee-hee! Wishful thinking is ringing. Min Fangji, who was far away in the capital, had no idea that he had been arranged.
"How is the arrangement, tomorrow is the day of delivery, don't make a mistake." Xiao Ming said, while wearing special white gloves to check this batch of medicines.
"Doctor Xiao, rest assured, this batch of medicines has been carefully selected without any problems." He replied that Dr. Xiao had told him that every bottle of medicine was related to the life and death of a soldier, so he was extremely cautious every time.
"Well, well done." Xiao Ming checked all the medicines, nodded with satisfaction, and praised a few rare words.
"How many people are going to follow to the capital?" Xiao Ming asked again, the pharmacy is going to move to the capital, and it is naturally best to use familiar old employees, but most of these people have families and rooms, and not all of them are willing to leave their homeland.
"I've given you the notice, and now sixteen people are willing to follow." It is a pity that only 16 of the 38 workers are willing to go to the capital, and most of them are orphans who have no relatives like him, and there are also children who have no relatives in the family and want to go to the capital while they are young.
"It's okay, it's hard to leave the homeland, those who are willing to go with them will increase their monthly wages by one percent more in the future, and those who don't want to go let them continue to stay in Guangjitang to work."
In the afternoon, a caravan of more than ten people entered from the back door of Guangji Hall, and the leader was Xia Qi, and the group waited outside the city for all the troops escorting medicinal materials in order not to attract attention.
Xia Qi saw Xiao Ming first, took out a thick package from his arms and handed it to Xiao Ming, Xiao Ming took it with a smile and put it away, Shi Tingyu always did not miss every opportunity to send a message.
In the process of loading the car, Xia Xiaoba led Xia Qi to the corner, the two communicated in a whisper, Xia Xiaoba's eyes were rolling around, Xiao Ming didn't care about him, she knew what he was going to say.
It didn't take long for the medicine to be loaded into the car, Xia Qi led the people away, and they had to rush back to the northwest overnight to transport the medicine back.
Xiao Ming went home, and in the evening she turned out the letter sent by Shi Tingyu, on which Shi Tingyu knew the news that she was going to enter Beijing, and told her to be careful, not to forget to move, the letter was also mixed with a few land deeds, dozens of silver tickets, Xiao Ming counted, a property in the city, a shop, and a grange in the suburbs, and the silver tickets were more than 30,000 taels.
Hehe! It's thoughtful.
This is the rhythm to raise her.
"Girl." Yi's mother screamed outside the door.
"Come in." Xiao Ming unhurriedly put away the silver ticket and the title deed, and Yi's mother pushed the door open and came in.
"Brother Tiesheng of the Liu family is here, do you want to see the girl?"
"Okay, call the pear and let's go have a look." Xiao Ming nodded, then got up and went to the front yard.
In the front yard, Liu Tiesheng stood there, looking a little cramped, rubbing his hands from time to time, and his dark skin looked black and red inexplicably under the light of the candlelight.
He changed his clothes, which looked very new, but the wrinkles on them were obvious, obviously the kind that was usually pressed at the bottom of the box and was willing to take them out when he went out.
When he saw Xiao Ming, he was so nervous that he stuttered.
"I've seen ......, I've seen girls." On weekdays, he is not as nervous as he is today when he sees his boss, but today is different.
The difference is in the guy standing behind the boss.
"Brother Liu is polite, and he is not in the store, so there is no need to be so restrained, please take a seat."
"Alas! Alas! Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Li'er behind Xiao Ming, her face turned even redder, her head was lowered, her heart was beating to the point of flying, and she couldn't say a complete sentence in her mouth, if the Dawang family was here, she should be in a hurry.
"Brother Liu, is there something wrong?" Xiao Ming also sat down and asked.
"I'm ......, I'm ......" Liu Tiesheng I couldn't speak, and looked at Li'er with his eyes uneasily, and the black skin on his face was about to burn.
Mother Yi is simply faceless, girl, you should be a person! You said that Li'er was standing here, and how could this shy teenager speak. I finally mustered up the courage to propose to myself, and I was teased by you like this girl, and I begged for the psychological shadow area of Brother Tiesheng.
"Li'er, you go and pour a cup of tea for Brother Liu." Xiao Ming finally became a person.
"Yes, girl." The simple-minded pear went out, and at this time she didn't know that this person was the person she would be with for the rest of her life.
Li'er went out, Liu Tiesheng was finally able to say a complete sentence, and carefully placed a simple small wooden box on the table with both hands: "Girl, I am willing to ask to marry Miss Li'er, please rest assured, I will definitely be good to Li'er girl, be good to her all my life, be loyal to the girl for the rest of my life, please be able to agree." ”
Liu Tiesheng's mind was blank, and he completely forgot what his mother had repeatedly taught him to say before he came, but fortunately he still remembered the purpose of his visit, but the words he said were not very beautiful.
After speaking, he lowered his head, didn't dare to look at anyone, and waited anxiously for Xiao Ming's verdict. He was very frustrated, he felt that his mouth was too stupid, he wouldn't say something beautiful and flattering like Liu Xiaoming, when he was in the shop, he would only use his strength to carry it, and most of the people who came in to buy seeds liked to find a guy like Liu Xiaoming who could speak well.
This time, I don't know if I messed things up.
For the pear girl, Liu Tiesheng has seen it a few times, and every time he follows the girl, her face is round, her skin is white and tender, whiter than the meat buns she bought in Pingcheng, and the clothes she wears are always clean, unlike the country girls who do farm work with black skin, he never thought that he could marry such a wife, this must be God's favor for him.
Xiao Ming opened the wooden box, and Yi's mother, who was standing on the side, could clearly see that there was a silver hairpin and two silver bracelets inside, thinking that this was a dowry, if it was an ordinary family, such a dowry would be reasonable, but it was too shabby for the Xiao family.
But thinking of her in-laws, Yi's mother was relieved, in the past two years, whenever the Liu family has a little savings to pay off the debt, and the food and clothing on weekdays are also very frugal, and she can give such a dowry, and her mother-in-law also poured the whole family into the effort of the whole family and took out the last bit of savings in the family.
Speaking of which, this creditor is still their girl.
The eldest prince did not come, she let her son come, let her son show the sincerity of their Liu family, Yi's mother looked at the silver hairpin and bracelet that were not very good, and did not speak, nor did she mean to help her in-laws make peace, she has always maintained neutrality and impartiality, and the girl is her master.
However, Xiao Ming is still satisfied, it doesn't matter if the money is not money, the most important thing is sincerity.
