Gan Song's desire to do a medicinal herb business but lack of money was told to Zheng Lingyi by Qiao Luo earlier.

She just said casually, but Zheng Lingyi was interested.

Zheng Lingyi discussed this matter carefully with Aunt Jiang, and learned that Qiao Niang also put fifty taels of silver in this business.

They said in their hearts that this Gansong is a knowledgeable person, and Zhang Qiaoniang is a bright-eyed person, and this deal may be a stable one.

Zheng Lingyi knew that although fifty taels of silver was a lot, it was not much. The medicinal herb business is not something that can be bought and sold for one or two dollars.

However, the next month, Qiao Luo came back with a tael of silver. When he gave Qiaoluo money, Gansong was still a little embarrassed, as if he was giving less.

A tael of silver is not much, but it is not a lot. Zheng Lingyi is relieved, a long stream of water is a safe business, if you take back a few taels at once, it will make people feel uneasy.

"I don't think Dr. Ganzon is a bad person."

As soon as Qiao Luo spoke, the incense seal in Zheng Lingyi's hand was carved halfway, and he couldn't help but let go of his hand to support his forehead, and smiled helplessly.

Midori bit her lower lip for fear of laughing. Aunt Jiang looked at Qiao Luo with a smile.

Zheng Changchang raised her head from the embroidery frame and looked at everyone in confusion.

This is the third time that Qiaoluo has come to Tiganson today.

Zheng Lingyi had never seen Gan Song, but from Qiao Luo's mouth, he already knew that he was a person who was not tall but had a very gentle appearance.

I heard that he had no father and no mother, and the year before last, he sent away his adoptive father and lived alone in this alley.

Later, Zhang Qiaoniang sent Zhang Qishi to him, and the courtyard became a little more popular. It's just that I don't know how Wu punished that person and how he met Gansong.

Qiao Luo didn't notice anything, and was still talking to himself, "When I went that day, he picked up the patient from outside again, cured the person for nothing, and put two packets of medicine upside down. No wonder he was in a hurry to do a medicinal herb business, otherwise how could he have enough money to live. ”

"Have you seen his medicine garden?" Zheng Lingyi asked.

"I see, what is the name of that medicinal herb? Look at the strange and inconspicuous, thumb-sized pom-pom, which is the size of a soybean when dried. Who would have thought it would sell for such a high price? But that day's jade Linglong was personally picked up by the second shopkeeper of Kangning Fang, and I looked at it in the crack of the door when I collected it, and I couldn't be wrong. ”

Although Qiao Luo is very relieved of Gansong's character, he is holding Zheng Yanru's silver in his hand, so he is naturally careful and careful.

The jade is delicate and delicate, and Gansong also got a booklet left by his adoptive father and master, and he gave birth to it.

But there is still a lot of damage, and Jatamansi finally tried the method of raising seedlings, but even the money to buy seeds is almost gone.

Fortunately, they scraped together some for him, which was considered to be borrowed, and it could be regarded as a partner to do the trading of medicinal materials.

With the addition of Zheng Yanru's one hundred taels, there will be more medicinal materials that Jatamansi can muster, and there will be more money.

After this winter, at the beginning of spring, Zheng Lingyi returned Zheng Yanru's one hundred taels to twenty taels.

Twenty taels, and the reward for the New Year's Festival is more than this.

However, the capital is only one hundred taels, and the income is not much.

"You even gave me the principal with interest, don't you need money to buy and sell medicinal materials?" Zheng Yanru said.

They were on the swing in Xiqing Garden, and in order to avoid Zhixia's ubiquitous prying eyes, they had to come out to speak.

It's spring now, how can you not use money?

Jade is special and can only be planted in winter, but most of the medicinal materials are now when you want to buy seeds and seedlings.

Zheng Lingyi tore off a willow branch, playing between her fingers more flexible than cotton thread, she tied the willow branch to Zheng Yanru's tail finger and gently tied a knot.

"Sister didn't say a few days ago that she bought a few small shops outside, I thought you were short of money, so I got the money back for you."

Hearing her say this seriously, Zheng Yanru said with a smile: "There is no shortage of these silver coins." ”

As she spoke, she shoved the money back in.

She turned the money into a shop, and now she has five in her hand, and although the location is not excellent, it is also in the market, and she does not have to worry about renting it at all.

I bought a small shop just a month ago, and even the shop with the yard was rented out, saying that it was a family to live, and by the way opened a shop to do some food and trade.

There is living money coming in every month, and somehow, Zheng Yanru is more confident in her heart.

She even thought that in the future, after saving money, she would move out and live in a small yard by herself.

But as soon as this thought came out, it was known to be delusional. Don't say that the Lu family, even Zheng Guogong is also a thousand unwilling, ten thousand unwilling.

Now Zheng Yanru's biggest headache is Zhixia, the shop in her hand always has to send someone to collect the accounts, but Zhixia's eyes are always on Zhiqiu, Zhiqiu is a few times today, she also knows.

I had no choice but to ask others to find others, knowing that there was a second-class maid named Huang Xing under the autumn, and the deed was in Zheng Yanru's own hands, she was a little trustworthy, and her temperament was also capable, so she asked her to go out to Zhang Luo.

But recently, Zhixia's eyes seem to be staring at Huang Xing again, which is really annoying like a fly.

After listening to Zheng Yanru's complaints, Zheng Ling thought for a moment, and told Zheng Yanru what he had seen and heard that day with a hesitant expression.

When Zheng Yanru heard the 'Pixiu jar', she frowned deeply.

Zhiqiu on the side couldn't help but say: "That's the jar where my sister broke the silver and copper coins, Zhixia knew that my sister was generous, and she casually touched the silver from the jar to reward her subordinates, and she never counted carefully, she really ate leopard gall!" ”

"Sister Danzhu also saw it, maybe she has been trained." Zheng Lingyi looked at Zheng Yanru's expression and said lightly.

"My hands and feet are so unclean, my mother even let her stay with me." Zheng Yanru shook her head, only feeling incredible.

"Maybe Danzhu reprimanded him privately and didn't tell Madame." Zheng Lingyi speculated.

Zheng Yanru and Zhiqiu glanced at each other, and Zheng Yanru sneered: "With Danzhu's temperament, I won't hide it, otherwise my mother will find out in the future, and even she will be dragged down." ”

Zheng Lingyi didn't speak, and pulled the willow branches in his hand into small sections, which seemed to be a little cramped and nervous.

Seeing this, Zheng Yanru comforted: "Fifteen, you go back to Xiyuan first." Don't think about it, just treat it as if you don't know, I'll deal with it. ”

Zheng Lingyi nodded, and when he turned around, he shook the small silver wallet in his hand at Zheng Yanru, looking proud that I am a little rich woman.

Zhiqiu and Zheng Yanru were both amused by her, and after seeing Zheng Lingyi drifting away, Zhiqiu said with emotion: "The fifteenth sister is really not easy, she is smart and well-behaved, simple but not stupid. ”

Zheng Yanru responded as if she had some feelings, "Well, the fifteenth sister is indeed a special one. ”

She took out a purse that had been prepared early and handed it to Zhiqiu, bulging, and at a glance she knew that it was stuffed with broken silver, Zhiqiu looked at her in surprise, hesitating and not daring to take it.

"Take it. You deserve what you are busy with these days. Then there's one more thing you're going to have to worry about. Zheng Yanru's tone sounded a little unfamiliar, and there was a rare indifference in her.

Zheng Lingyi, as Zheng Yanru said, didn't care about this matter anymore, and didn't inquire again. If you inquire, it would be bad if you showed any traces.

She knows that Zheng Yanru is not a completely scheming person, and many things are not that she can't, but that she doesn't want to.

Aunt Jiang divided the money she earned into four parts, one for herself, two for her daughter, and one for Qiaoluo as a dowry.

Zheng Lingyi also divided the share he got into two parts, one was saved, and the other was left for Lu Nong, whether he married or released it in the future, there will always be a time when it will be useful.

While she was counting the broken silver, a small hand reached out and placed the broken silver on the table.

Zheng Lingyi turned his head to look at Zheng Changchang and wondered, "What to do?" ”

Zheng Changchang said seriously: "Lu Nong also takes care of me on weekdays, and I will also give a copy." ”

Zheng Lingyi laughed, and without much verbosity, he put away the silver and put it in a small burlap bag embroidered with green leaves.

Lu Nong walked back at this time, she went to the outer courtyard to return the dishes, chopsticks, cups and saucers, and when she came back, she was a little puzzled and said: "It's really strange today, why are there a lot of maids missing outside, and I can't find anyone in the outer courtyard." ”

Zheng Ling thought about it, and vaguely remembered that today seemed to be a somewhat special day.

Zheng Lingyi was keeping a small account, biting the pen and saying: "I know, today is the day to let the maid out, and every spring will release a batch and buy another batch." The maids were probably called by the grandmothers, if they wanted to stay, they would stay for a few more years, and if they wanted to leave, it would depend on what deed they signed, or they were paired with a small servant, or they were released directly. ”

Most of the maids in Xiyuan are not yet old, so no one informs them.

Lu Nong twisted his brows and thought about it, leaned closer to Zheng Lingyi and said softly, "But Brother Qing is still in the courtyard." ”

Zheng Lingyi snorted, and then said with a little doubt: "No, even if the lady doesn't want to let her out, she will still ask her to ask on the surface." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a commotion outside, Lu Nong went to the door to open a crack in the door to peep, and hurriedly came back and said to Zheng Lingyi: "Sister, Brother Qing and Sister Nineteen collided together, and it looks a little bad." ”

"Mianmian?" Zheng Lingyi hurriedly got down from the soft couch, left Zheng Changchang in the house, and went out alone.

She pushed the door open, and changed to a strong, courageous look of cringe.

Zheng Mianmian was scattered all over the place, and the small dustpan in her hand also fell to the ground, and the place where they stood was a corner, and they knew what was going on at a glance.

"Brother Qing, Sister Qing." Zheng Lingyi called tentatively.

Brother Qing turned around angrily, looked at Zheng Lingyi and said angrily: "Another restless one, what are you going to do?!" ”

Since Mama Tha Gu was taken out by her family due to illness, this West Garden is Brother Qing's alone, and she always walks sideways in this West Garden.

In front of the maidservants outside, she always looked arrogant to the concubines and aunts in Xiyuan, and even the Lu family had heard of it.

Zheng Lingyi stepped forward, protected Zheng Mianmian behind him, and said flatteringly to Brother Qing: "Mianmian is young, you also watched her grow up all the way, don't worry about her." ”

Brother Qing hates it most when others say that she is old, which sounds flattering, but it is actually anger.

Brother Qing naturally became even more angry, and pointed Zheng Lingyi's forehead with his fingers, and said angrily: "You are also a bad-hearted!" ”

Zheng Lingyi was poked by her and took a few steps back, and fell to the ground with Zheng Mianmian.

"Brother Qing! What do you do? Yuezhi's voice suddenly sounded, and Brother Qing looked back in shock.

Zheng Lingyi just brewed tears, and helped Zheng Mianmian up with difficulty, and the two stood close to the pillar, looking extremely afraid.

Yuezhi came to summon Brother Qing to go to Anheju, and she didn't treat the concubines very well, so it can be seen that this scene is especially shocking.

Looking at the pitiful appearance of the two sisters, she also said with a little unbearable: "Sisters, go back to the house first." I'll tell Madame about that. ”
