Chapter 24: Xuan Qi Dynasty's infatuation or stupidity
Xuan Qichao didn't know that the infatuation on his face was misinterpreted as stupidity by his brother-in-law, he saw Shen Huaen dancing around with a stick that he didn't know where to pick up, so he walked over to give him guidance, "Your style of play is too messy, there are many loopholes, even people who don't practice martial arts can find it, you look at your action just now, it should be like this......"
Shen Zhiyao was watching from the side, and saw that Xuan Qichao was holding a small stick, and he waved it a few times, and it was different all of a sudden, like a general on the battlefield, holding a spear in his hand, extremely brave...... It's so powerful, no wonder he can kick Liu Xiuqin out with a single kick......
Shen Zhiyao admired it a little in his heart, but it was only for a moment, thinking of his excellent sister, he felt that this person was not useless after all, and he could protect his sister, but he was also a real man.
Dinner was made by Xuan Qichao and Shen Zhiyao, Shen Zhiyao has been cooking since he was a child, Xuanqichao was sent by Hui Niang to help him, and I don't know for what purpose, there was an awkward atmosphere in the kitchen.
But in fact, Shen Zhiyao was the only one who was embarrassed, and Xuan Qichao was very comfortable and relaxed.
"When did my sister become so proficient in medical skills, I never knew ......" Shen Zhiyao muttered quietly, as if this sister suddenly became unknown to him.
Xuan Qi paused for a moment towards the movements in his hand, and said suspiciously: "Your sister's medical skills seem to have been studied for many years, you are her own brother, you don't know?" β
Shen Zhiyao shook his head, also confused, "I don't know, but I'm not at home most of the time, could it be that my sister secretly learned?" "In order to make a living in the future, it is really not easy for my sister to learn things under Liu Xiuqin's nose, and Shen Zhiyao feels even more sorry for her sister.
When Xuan Qichao heard Shen Zhiyao say this, his suspicions dispelled a little.
After dinner in the evening, Shen Zhiyao found that Xuan Qichao was still teaching Shen Feng to write, he leaned over curiously, and found that Xuanqi Chao's characters were very domineering, and he had been practicing for many years at a glance, and there must be a master professor, so he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
He himself has been practicing calligraphy for a long time, and he has also been praised by Mr., but compared with the Xuanqi Dynasty, it is simply a heaven and an earth.
can be civil and martial, what is the origin of this Xuanqi Dynasty, such a person would come to be a son-in-law? Shen Zhiyao thought of Xuan Qichao's expression in the afternoon, and thought of his sister's fiery temperament, thinking that his brother-in-law must like his sister very much, right?
When Shen Zhiyao looked at Xuan Qichao again, he no longer disliked it, but became very admirable.
In order to get Liu Dongyi's approval, she quickly promoted the antipyretic tea to the outside world, and she scattered the antipyretic tea in Liu Dongyi's faΓ§ade, the price was affordable, plus those people had already heard of it, so there were still a lot of people who came to buy it for a while.
But this can only be regarded as an "appetizer", she still has many big tricks behind her, but this small "appetizer" made Huiniang get a dividend of three hundred taels of silver in just five days, which made her very happy.
"Three hundred taels of silver, I'll drop a good one!" Shen Huaen often goes out to sell, of course he knows what the concept of three hundred taels of silver is, he has never seen so much money.
But Hui Niang knows that she really earns far more than these, mainly because she takes advantage of Liu Dongyi, after all, Liu Dongyi's business is so big, there is no integrity, and there are not so many people who will buy it, "We have money, what do you want to buy, just say it, I will try to satisfy you, this is just a piece of cake, we will earn more in the future." β
"I'm here, I'm going to want ten sugar gourds!" Shen Huaen raised his little hand, as if he had seen many sugar gourds in front of his eyes, and he was almost drooling.
Hui Niang knocked his hand down, "This won't work, eat ten sugar gourds, do you still want this tooth?" β
Shen Huaen suddenly became frustrated, and Shen Feng said: "Then I want a wooden sword, I want to learn to practice the sword from my father." β
Hui Niang glanced at Xuan Qichao and saw that he had no opinion, so she said, "Okay, then I'll give you one hand." β
The two children were so happy that Hui Niang watched them play for a while, and then quietly asked, "What do you want?" β
Xuan Qichao was no longer short of money to spend at this time, he had planned to give Huiniang money directly, but now it seems that it makes her happier to let her earn money by herself.
"Then I'll have a wooden sword too."
Hui Niang noticed his perfunctory, but she didn't say anything, and planned to go to the blacksmith shop to make a good one for Xuan Qichao.
Seeing that the weather is getting colder and colder, winter clothes are to be prepared, although there are more people now, but it is not bad for money, she plans to buy two clothes for Shen Zhiyao, a few days ago I saw that this stupid child was still wearing clothes with patches, I also knew that Liu Xiuqin would definitely not give him new clothes to wear.
Hui Niang bought some meat and grain, and also bought a lot of good pen, ink, paper and inkstone, all of which were Shen Zhiyao's share, and finally bought some snacks.
Xuan Qichao was carrying a lot of things behind him, but he didn't breathe at all, and he was relaxed, this person who practiced martial arts was really different.
"Or ...... Let's go see the house, shall we? Hui Niang was a little moved, she had saved enough of the thirty taels she owed before, and she spent more than fifty taels before and after today, mainly because the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were too expensive, all of them were of the highest grade, but she was not distressed at all, and now there were more than two hundred taels of silver left, and one hundred taels were divided into the capital, and there were more than one hundred left.
"Are you going to buy a house?" What this woman was thinking, Xuan Qichao could basically see at a glance.
"Yes, I want to buy a building, the front yard can open a shop, and we can live by ourselves in the back, no longer have to run around like this, how convenient." It's just that this house with a faΓ§ade is definitely more expensive than living in it, and she is just looking at it now, but it may not be suitable.
Hui Niang walked around, she fancy either her own money is not enough, and it is too small, she will make it bigger and bigger in the future, of course, she hopes to buy a bigger one, and now there are more and more people around her, and at least five rooms are needed......
Xuan Qichao saw that Hui Niang had been silent and did not speak, thinking that she was a little depressed, so he comforted: "It's okay, we often pay attention, and it's not too late to talk about it when it is suitable, and it's not in a hurry at this time." β
Hui Niang smiled at him, "I know, I can earn so much this time this time, and next time it will only be more, not less, and sooner or later I will be able to live in a big house." β
What Xuan Qichao admires most about Hui Niang is her optimism, as if nothing in the world can defeat her.
Hui Niang is really strolling around, in the eyes of some people, it is a living show-off, this time I bought so many things, I must have made a lot of money!
When Liu Xiuqin saw it from a distance on the side of the street, a pair of jealous eyes were about to burst into flames!
"A cheap hoof, I only gave me five taels of silver last time, and I called it Huazi, I said I wanted more, you just said forget it!"
Lin Dayong was also a little greedy, "Didn't I see that her man was there, he kicked me last time and it was still painful." β
"You unproductive thing, can he still kill us? Murder pays for your life! The more Liu Xiuqin thought about it, the more unwilling she became, she gritted her teeth, but she didn't dare to trouble Huiniang rashly, this woman has become powerful now.
Lin Dayong rolled his obscene little eyes, "Or, let's go find Zhao Yapo?" Didn't this Hui Niang still owe Zhao Yapo thirty taels of silver, only thirty taels, she must be unwilling, maybe she has some idea. β
Liu Xiuqin's eyes lit up and patted Lin Dayong's face, "You're right, let's go now, so good, you can be regarded as useful." β
Chen Zhao has been inquiring about the news of the capital these days, and at the same time quietly protecting the third master in secret, knowing that Huiniang has made a lot of money, of course he wants to invite merit in front of Xuanqi Chao, but these days, he has also seen the interaction between the two in his eyes.
He had never seen such a third master before, that look, that expression, especially when Huiniang was bullied, he had never seen the third master so nervous......
Could it be that the third master, who has been guarding for more than 20 years, has moved his heart in this poor and remote place?
For a while, Chen Zhao didn't know whether to be happy or ......
"Third master......" Chen Zhao reported the news of the capital to Xuanqi Chao under the old locust tree again, it stands to reason that he should go back, but he really couldn't help but want to ask, "That Miss Shen is your nominal wife after all, and when you go back in the future, do you want to take her into the house?" β
Entering the ......
Xuan Qichao suddenly fell into silence, he found that in the days he spent with Hui Niang, he had never thought about the future, and he was even willing to pass the time little by little. But what can he do once he returns home, others don't know, doesn't he know that the two are just fake couples?
If it was at the beginning, Xuan Qi Chao would have taken the silver and sent people away.
But now he is very sure that she will leave happily after giving Huiniang money, but what about him, can he let her go like this?
I don't know why, as long as he thinks that the two will be separated in the future, a wave of irritability will well-up in his heart.
"Now is not the time to worry about this."

Liu Xiuqin picked up a piece of her new clothes early in the morning, took out the embroidered shoes that she only wore during the New Year, smeared the rouge gouache, and took a clean muslin dress for Lin Dayong.
Generally, people in the village only go outside to see important people or buy things for the New Year, and many people on the road see it.
Liu Xiuqin was originally married by Shen Gaofu, much younger than her peers, as the saying goes, people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, so she is indeed a lot more beautiful. She was walking forward with her head tilted up, and the little daughter-in-law in the village spoke, "What are you proud of?" Did she wear her dress once last year, and still take it out to show off? β
"Yes, if you want me to say that I don't want half a bottle, who doesn't know that Hui Niang has the ability to make money? You see which day the chickens, ducks, fish and meat are constant, the cotton jackets are all two-body, and they are not glamorous", now Hui Niang's ability is not known to no one in the whole village, "If I want to say that I have to live a real woman like Hui Niang." β
