After Xi Hongdou came to Kyoto City, he was wearing clothes brought from Xijia Village, and the clothes given by Xiao Zhi were all light and fluttering, and it was not convenient to see the shop selling rice here, so he was still wearing his own plain cloth clothes, and it looked like he was indeed inferior to the maids of large families.

Xiao Zhi said: "Your eyes might as well be really blind, this is my daughter-in-law who has not passed the door, you were going to beat him just now?" Which hand can hit? Chopped in front of me! ”

Xi Hongdou hurriedly looked at Xiao Zhi, feeling that Xiao Zhi's words were also a little ruthless, and she didn't dare to speak when she looked at the few people opposite, so she hurriedly said: "I didn't fight, I didn't fight, you came before I started fighting, I just opened a new store today, don't chop my hands, make me dizzy with blood!" ”

"Well, then don't chop your hands!" Xiao Zhi turned his head and answered, and then said to Gou Dabeard: "I don't ask who asked you to come, anyway, everyone is in vain, I can guess that I can count those few rice sellers on one hand!" ”

"Yes, yes, the little ones will take their leave!" Gou Bearded hurriedly led people away, Xiao Zhi has the back of the court, not they can afford to provoke, they can only bully the white people, and whoever comes to them has to call grandpa.

Seeing that the troublemaker was gone, Xiao Zhi turned around and asked, "Are you okay?" They didn't beat you, did they? ”

"I didn't fight, I just grabbed my neck." As soon as Xi Hongdou's voice fell, seeing that Xiao Zhi was going to find someone to settle accounts again, Xi Hongdou hurriedly pulled the person back: "Just take a look, make money with anger, if you really want to make them anxious, can you still be a thug for me here every day?" "Those people can only hide, they can't provoke, those people don't do their jobs, if they make trouble here every day, do you make trouble?!

Xiao Zhi dissipated his anger and said, "Thanks to me for taking you home for dinner, otherwise you will really suffer." "His father and mother have been away from Kyoto City for a few days, and the dishes he makes in the kitchen are all Xi Hongdou's favorite food.

"Then I'll go to the door, and my brother and they should come back in a while." Xi Hongdou said and went to get the plank.

Xiao Zhi came over to help, watching how Xi Hongdou did it, he also learned the same, although it was clumsy, it was better than looking dry.

Xi Mu and Xi Lin saved the money, and several of them went back to the Xiao family together, and when Xi Mu entered the Xiao family, there was no difference between him and Xi Lin, and his chin basically couldn't be closed.

After eating a table of delicious food, Xi Lin took out a silver ticket and gave it to Xi Hongdou and said, "These are all yours." "According to the price of the grain received, the family will be deducted, as well as the cost of manpower and material resources, and the rest will be Xi Hongdou's.

"It's too much, I think that since we can make money now, we should also make a good plan, how much I get, how many brothers I get." Xi Hongdou took out a silver ticket as he spoke: "Brothers, let's settle the accounts clearly, and we can't let my brothers suffer." ”

Seeing that Xi Hongdou really had the heart to do this, Xi Mu and Xi Lin were naturally happy.

Xi Mu said: "Our brothers have to go back to grow grain at home, can you do it only on you in Kyoto City?" ”

"Okay, it's so busy today because it's cheap, and the price will be the normal price from tomorrow, so it won't be so busy." Xi Hongdou said that it is not difficult for her to watch a shop alone.

Xi Mu nodded, and Xi Lin said: "I have to go back in a few days, even if I hire people to plant the land at home, someone has to keep an eye on it, but fortunately, with my brother-in-law, I don't have to worry about it." ”

Xi Lin also thinks the same way, there is a lot of farm work at home, and their brother has to go back early.

Xi Hongdou said: "Let's sell the crabs at home." ”

"That thing is transported here, it doesn't stink?" Xi Mu felt unreliable.

Xi Hongdou said: "Crabs are afraid of heat and cold, this season is also suitable, the next time I transport grain, I will transport a few cars, I will take a piece to sell!" "One is also sold, and the other two are also sold, both of which are "factory direct sales", so if you can sell them in Kyoto City, you might be able to have your own store right away.

Early the next morning, Xi Mu and Xi Lin were going to go with the caravan going back, Xi Hongdou let her cumin seeds also brought, now the weather is cold, and when spring comes, the dry climate in Kyoto City is more suitable for planting cumin than in Hexi Prefecture, but around Kyoto City, she doesn't have her own land, she wants to study it, see if she can get a piece of land, and plant whatever she wants.

On this day, no one came to trouble Xi Hongdou selling rice, she pondered that the Xiao family was indeed a good thigh, and she could sell her own rice with peace of mind with the light of the Xiao family.

At noon, Rue Xiang came to deliver food, and Xi Hongdou had just sent Rue away after eating, and he saw an acquaintance at the door.

"Xu Neiren!" Xi Hongdou hurriedly got up to meet her, and the people helped her send the lost package back, and she couldn't thank her properly.

Xu Min just went out of the palace to do errands, but when he passed by, he found that Xi Hongdou was looking at the shop, so he came in to take a look.

"Miss Xi, is this helper? This shop...... It seems to be the Xiao family! Xu Min said.

Xi Hongdou said: "It's not a helper, I rented it!" Then he told me all the ins and outs of selling rice here.

Xu Minjue's Xi Hongdou is not simple, the age on the official register seems to be less than fifteen years old, how can he be so energetic in everything? ! When it is said that it is going to sue the royal court, it is said that it will be done and it is simply neat.

"Xiao Gongzi is also a blessed person, he can marry someone like Miss Xi." Xu Min said, it's just that people have different lives, he was sold to the palace by his father and mother since he was a child, and now he is not a man, let alone marry a daughter-in-law in the future.

Xi Hongdou smiled and poured tea for Xu Min, but heard someone gossiping on the street.

"Isn't that a eunuch in the palace? Do the people in the palace still use eunuchs to buy rice? "Passing by and walking, this made the two people in the house a little embarrassed.

Xi Hongdou poured tea and sent it over, seeing that Xu Min was a little cramped, he said: "Xu Neiren don't have to listen to what they say, some people just can't see others have a good life, so they are willing to say these bullshit words to block people!" ”

Xu Min smiled reluctantly: "Miss Xi is different from people like me. ”

Xi Hongdou felt that he did not have a piece missing from his body, but he had also been slandered by others, so he said: "I used to be rumored to be Kefu, and there were two relatives in front of me, one was sick all the year round and died, and the other did not dare to do good things, so people were stabbed to death, and finally I became a broom star, and one in the village counted one, and all of them said bad things about me behind my back!" ”

When Xu Min heard this, he also felt novel, so he asked, "Are you Kefu?" ”

"Yes, do you believe it?" Xi Hongdou smiled and said, "I don't believe it anyway." ”

Xu Min smiled lightly: "I've heard such a statement, although it is absurd, but many people suffer from it." ”

"Yes, I was too calm, but some people can't look past it, so I have to get you some charges to be charged, so ah, some people's words can't go to their hearts. They can pick bones in their eggs, if you are serious, it is to be led by the nose, start to doubt yourself, and finally become more and more uncomfortable, this is the most unacceptable! Xi Hongdou said, this Xu Min is a good person, seeing people being said like this, she always feels like she is hard-hearted.

Xu Min was indeed comforted, he used to walk all the way out of the palace with his head down, for fear of seeing the strange eyes in the eyes of those people, but now that he was enlightened by Xi Hongdou, he felt that he was also relieved a lot, and he raised his head in the future, why care about the eyes of those who don't know anyone!

"Thank you." Xu Min said with a smile, seeing that the time was almost up, it was time for him to go back to the palace to resume his life.

Xi Hongdou waved his hand, sent Xu Min away, and continued to sell his rice, making money, which is really addictive and unstoppable.

Here, after Xu Min returned to the palace to restore his life, he went to the East Palace first.

The crown prince Tang Jian is young and promising, and he is quite trusted by the emperor, but the queen died early, the prince has no grandmother to protect him, his grandfather is old, his uncle has no talent, and there is no available person under him, the prince.

"Your Highness, the Xiao family has returned to normal, but Lord Xiao went to visit his relatives and was not in Kyoto City." Xu Min told everything about the Xiao family. He is Zhao Zhen's godson, but from the time he entered the palace, he worked under the prince, and then he was sent to the Internal Affairs Office, which was basically the prince's secret stake.

The prince nodded: "The Xiao family didn't suffer this time, which is a good thing." "The Xiao family is considered a neutral faction, and several princes basically don't have much contact, so they should be afraid of being beaten into a party for personal gain. But for him, this is already good, he is the crown prince, and he will only need to employ people when he ascends the throne in the future, so he doesn't have to worry about whether the Xiao family followed anyone before.

Xu Min said at this time: "Today in the city, the fiancée of the Xiao family is selling rice in the shop. ”

"Selling rice? The fiancée of the Xiao family still uses this? "Prince difference.

"Before, this woman sued the emperor, and now she sells rice, the slave thinks that this woman is not simple, Xiao Zhi is crazy and can listen to her, if His Royal Highness really intends to win over the Xiao family, it is better to start from Xiao Zhi and this woman, Xiao Zhi will also be a medicine in the future, His Royal Highness the Prince is the best choice." Xu Min said, after all, the prince is orthodox, and this prince is also a virtuous and benevolent person, even if the Xiao family is close now, there will be no surprises.

The prince thought about it, and said: "Then let's do it, it's just that it can't be too obvious, my father is already suspicious, and the matter of King Xiang has just calmed down, don't touch your brows!" ”

Xu Min nodded and retreated first.

On the Xiao family's side, Xiao Zhi worked hard, in order to participate in the imperial examination a year later, he was also open-minded, and the most hated person was also studying, and now he directly got four teaching gentlemen, in addition to eating and sleeping every day, most of the time is sitting in the pile of books and reading hard, in order to let Xi Hongdou enjoy the wealth he gave, he also fights!
