Cheng Qing didn't know that there was a gentleman in Huai'an City, and he wanted to ask him for advice on his future.

Even if you know...... Hehe, her surname is Cheng and not her surname Rong, she is neither Rong Jiu's sister nor Rong Jiu's mother, why did Rong Jiu answer when she asked Cheng Qing?

The imperial army subdued the Huainan region, and the road back to Nanyi from Wuhe County was very easy.

This drought has starved the mountain bandits and water bandits who blocked the road and robbed them to the point of starvation, and a small number of them did not die, and the counterinsurgency army also served a pot by the way when they beat the scarf thieves, and Cheng Qing was rarely quiet on the way back to Nanyi County.

Although she has no official position, her fame is still there, and she has a post station to spend the night all the way, but she has not suffered much from eating and sleeping in the open.

When he returned to Nanyi, he had only been away for less than two years, and Cheng Qing actually had a sense that things were wrong.

This feeling was even more obvious after meeting Cheng Wu's husband and wife.

The fifth old man has aged a lot, and the Li family has also added wrinkles.

Cheng Qing called "Uncle and grandmother", and Li wiped his tears with a handkerchief: "Brother Qing has suffered!" ”

"Uncle and grandmother, I don't cry, you see me growing tall and fat, where is the bitterness?"

Cheng Qing coaxed Li to be happy, and Li fixed his eyes to see that he had indeed jumped up a lot, but to say that he was gaining weight was nonsense.

Not only is Cheng Qing not fat, but Li also thinks that she has lost some weight.

Cheng Qing rode a horse, He Wan sat in the car, and he had already gotten out of the car and waited on the side.

When the road to Huainan was opened, Cheng Qing wrote back to Nanyi County and informed her of the marriage with He Wan.

He Wan still had filial piety, Li didn't mind, took He Wan's hand and looked at it, and prepared a pair of plain white jade bracelets for He Wan.

"Good boy, I didn't expect to go around and around, you and Brother Qing still want to become a family."

He Wan showed a shy smile that met the expectations of the elders.

She didn't become a family with Brother Qing'er, she became a family with Sister Qing'er, and fate was really wonderful.

Master Cheng Wu sighed at the death of Old Man He, He Wan's eyes were red, but she didn't cry, the Li family had already hurt Cheng Qing's future daughter-in-law, gently patted He Wan's hand to comfort him, and Master Cheng Wu asked Cheng Qing to deal with the affairs of the He family first before talking about anything else.

Cheng Qing just returned to Nanyi, several domestic servants who originally stayed in Nanyi County came to visit, the five masters gave Cheng Qing the two little servants, Si Yan followed Cheng Qing to the capital, and Si Mo stayed to help Cheng Qing take care of the industry.

Rose dew is the business of Cheng Qing and Cui Yan, last year, after the guidance of Master Cui, several new varieties have been developed, Cheng Qing does not expect this business to make her the richest man in Nanyi, anyway, it is almost the same to earn a few thousand taels a year.

As a result, Si Mo showed Cheng Qing the account book, saying that for the whole of last year, Cheng Qing's share in the business was more than 10,000 taels.

"Young master, Master Cui has been to Zhuangzi a few times, and said that the small one guarding the gold mountain will not be developed, Master Cui does not know where to find the rouge recipe, and now our Zhuangzi out of the rouge is also very popular, last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, Nanyi here had a caravan to the capital, and the small one also asked someone to send it to the lady and the three young ladies to use ......"

The rouge sent to the capital in the Mid-Autumn Festival will take at least a month or two to arrive, and Cheng Qing was in Huainan for disaster relief at that time, and he really didn't know about it.

To develop new products, we need to have more raw materials.

Under the impetus of Master Cui, every household in Wuxin Town planted flowers, and everyone did not dare to use fertile land to plant on a large scale.

In the yard of the house, the ditch and the edge of the field, there are flowers.

Maybe in a few years, there may be no mulberry farmers in Wuxin Town.

Not only did the farmers see that there was a profit from planting flowers, but also because of the Huainan disaster and bandits, the trade route for silk export was cut off, the raw silk was unsalable, and the farmers who planted mulberry leaves were forced to have no way to live, and the mulberry farmers were afraid and did not dare to put all their livelihoods on planting mulberry.

Growing flowers is also a good way to make a living.

Slightly more expensive flowers can be cultivated into potted plants and sent to the county seat or Fucheng for sale, and the average quality is sold to the Cheng family's Zhuangzi as raw materials.

Si Mo explained that Cheng Qing also understood why his business income had increased.

The development of new products is not only Master Cui, but Cheng Qing has also thought about these things before, but the longer she lives in this era, the more she can understand the helplessness of businessmen.

No matter how much money you make, it will make little difference to this society.

It's better to be an official than to do business, being an official in the center can influence the decrees of the imperial court, and being an official in a local area can protect the people, Cheng Qing feels that the trip to Huainan has somewhat sublimated her spiritual world.

The selfishness in her bones has not changed, but this does not conflict with her idea of wanting to change this society.

Cheng Zhuangyuan was intoxicated with the spiritual satisfaction of self-touching, and Xiao Pan hurriedly came in: "Young master, the people of the He family have come back from Fucheng, and the ladies are crying in the courtyard and grabbing the ground, Second Master He and Third Master He are fierce and vicious, and they want to settle accounts with Miss Wan!" ”

Heck, Cheng Qing likes this kind of drama.

As soon as Old Man He left, the He family was about to jump out as a demon and bully He Wan, an orphan girl with no father and mother.

Cheng Qing raised his chin: "Bullying my fiancée, what a big dog, Wu Er, you take a few people to follow me to He's house!" ”

What is the difference between bullying the young master's fiancée and bullying the young master?

Wu Erqi set off at two o'clock, Cheng Qing walked in the front, majestic and high-spirited, Xiaopan felt that his young master had a lot of play.

Alas, the young master loves to act, what can he do to be a servant, of course, he must try his best to cooperate with the young master!

Xiao Pan has been worried about how Cheng Qing and He Wan, two people of the same gender, can get married, and only after returning to Nanyi did he feel how wonderful this family affair is, if it wasn't for the marriage with the young master, the He family would definitely bully Miss Wan.

Cheng Qing accompanied He Wan back to Nanyi to bury Old Man He.

This matter should have been handled by her and He Wan together, but she and He Wan were not married, so it was not good to live in the He family, Cheng Qing had just returned to his house in Yangliu Lane to deal with trivial matters, and the He family rushed back to Nanyi County on the back foot, and both sides missed perfectly.

When Cheng Qing arrived at He's house, he heard Second Uncle He Wan scolding.

In and out of the words, they all complained that He Wan was uneasy in the room, if He Wan didn't show up to do business, the old man would not follow He Wan to other places and end up in a foreign country.

He Wan waited for Second Uncle He to finish scolding before asking, what did Second Uncle He mean by this.

Second Uncle He jumped to his feet: "You still don't want to repent!" The old man is gone, I don't allow you to continue to ruin the reputation of the daughters of the He family, you will hand over the business in your hand now, go to the mourning hall and kneel, and kneel until the old man is in the ground. Don't worry, a few of our elders have discussed, and you will not be less married, and the family you find is also rich! ”

He Wan was still unhurried, and asked Second Uncle He what kind of family affairs he had arranged for him, so he might as well say it in public and listen to it.

Aunt He, who was crying in the courtyard, wiped her tears, "Since it is the best official house, the old man in the family worships Shangshu, and the Lang Jun who is close to you is studying in Nanyi Academy. ”

Sounds good.

Cheng Qing was not busy going in.

If it is really a good family and He Wan herself is satisfied, then her fake fiancé can be laid off at any time.

Just listening to it, Cheng Qing felt that something was not quite right, the second aunt He said that this is a good family, and the man's surname is Ji ...... In the entire Xuandu Mansion, the surname Ji has also been an official worshipping Shangshu, only Ji Lao Shangshu's family!

And the Ji family has two rooms, only Ji Hao is a lone seedling, Ji Hao is indeed studying in Nanyi Academy, these situations are all right, He Wan's second uncle and aunt are good relatives in the mouth of Ji Hao did not run away.

But isn't Ji Hao already married?

She is Mrs. Ji's maiden niece.

Cheng Qing's first reaction was that Ji Hao was unlucky, and his wife died at a young age, and then he remembered that Ji Hao wanted to have two rooms, so people could marry two wives.

Cheng Qing was furious, it turned out that it was not Grandma Ji who died, Ji Hao wanted to marry Xu Xian, so that He Wan would go to Ji's house and serve a husband with Grandma Ji.

Cheng Qing couldn't listen anymore, and kicked at the courtyard gate!
