Chapter 204: Trouble Comes to the Door
The next morning, the breeze was gentle, and the morning sun rose from the east, shedding a warm glow.
Qi Yunshu wore the morning light and entered the study of Fushouyuan in the name of delivering pastries.
Looking at the old lady Zhao who was busy working in front of the table in front of the window, Qi Yunshu said flatteringly: "Grandfather is really diligent, he is busy in the study early this morning?" ”
Don't look at Old Lady Zhao is no longer a master, but he still received the imperial order issued to him by the emperor alone to compile books such as gold and stone, so he is very busy every day.
Qi Yunshu turned around and said goodbye, but Old Lady Zhao didn't eat this, and asked directly, "Are you here to solve the problem?" ”
Qi Yunshu choked for a moment, hey, this is the question, it seems that the matter will not be let go if it is not resolved, she hurriedly said: "There are eyebrows!" She told Zhao Yu what he had found out, and then she also said that she hoped he could send someone to the Second Prince's Mansion.
Old lady Zhao was slightly surprised: "Yes, the old man really didn't see the wrong person!" ”
"Don't dare, I have to give my grandfather advice to properly handle this matter, so as not to implicate the princes in the house!" Qi Yunshu's words sounded good, but in fact, he was not convinced.
"Girl, this is blaming me for not coming out with you," Old Lady Zhao said to break her hidden thoughts.
Qi Yunshu shook her head several times and said that she didn't have this idea, although she was uncomfortable at first,
However, she is a more open-minded person in the end, and she doesn't have so many extravagant expectations for Mrs. Zhao, so she was relieved after a little stalk.
She just emphasized whether she could use Bowen to send the arrested delivery person to the Second Prince's Mansion for her.
Old lady Zhao smiled, it was impossible to refuse, it was reasonable to say that he hadn't helped before, so if he refused again, it would inevitably seem that he was too cold.
Besides, Zhao Jing and Qi Yunshu really don't have any available servants around them, and this request is reasonable!
Seeing that he agreed, Qi Yunshu was overjoyed and didn't stay long, leaving the address and leaving.
But he was stopped by Mrs. Zhao raising his hand: "Hey, hey, it's rare for you to come here, why don't I ask you again, did you send food to the old man of the Xia family before?" ”
Qi Yunshu didn't expect him to ask this question, thinking that there was nothing to hide, so he nodded and admitted.
Old lady Zhao stroked her gray beard and looked clear: "No wonder, no wonder, I said that the old man of the Xia family sent me this gold and wood rough stone today, and the co-authoring is the idea of your craft!" ”
Qi Yunshu blinked, she couldn't answer this.
Both of them are old men, and they are also elders, they are immortals fighting, and her junior can just step aside.
"For the sake of this gold stone, if you are empty, go to the Xia family, and look at what he is hungry for, and he has taken out all the things that he didn't exchange for in the past!"
Old lady Zhao couldn't hide the excitement in her heart.
Qi Yunshu tugged at the corners of her mouth, it turned out that this was the reason why the old lady was so generous that she praised her one after another today.
But it's okay, she just wants to find an excuse to go out, and it's time to talk about Su Zhi's business.
After going out of Fushouyuan, I saw someone on the main road hurriedly leading an old man with a medicine box on his back.
She stared in that direction, glanced at Bowen who sent her out, and asked, "Uncle Wen, is anyone sick?" ”
The capable erudite had already seen everything in his eyes, and when he heard her ask, he said: "The fourth young master of the third room, I don't know what happened last night, I cried for most of the night, and the third lady asked for doctors everywhere this morning, and this is the fifth!" ”
Qi Yunshu's heart tightened, she speculated about Bowen's words, she felt that he deliberately said it in such detail, as if he was conveying some kind of information to her.
It's just that her mind moved, and before she had time to think deeply, the second gate arrived, and with erudite knowledge leading the way, it was equivalent to a bright pass, she didn't need to ask Qin Yuru for instructions at all, and she could leave the house openly.
Breathing in the fresh air outside the mansion made Qi Yunshu so excited that she quickly put aside the matter of the young master in the third room being sick.
After leaving the house, she sent UBM to Tingshui Lane according to the original plan, and she saw that it was still early, and immediately ordered the coachman to go to the sauce shop.
Because she had received her order in advance, the door of the shop had already been opened.
She jumped out of the carriage, and the shopkeeper Liu came up to meet her.
"The owner is here, and the lady is already in the courtyard!"
Qi Yunshu was overjoyed, today was a temporary outing, but she didn't expect to meet Su Zhi coming back.
This is no better, and it will save her from having to go to the Zhao Mansion for a while.
As soon as Qi Yunshu walked in, Su Zhi greeted her, and then gave her a big hug without hesitation.
"Great work! Girl! Su Zhi sighed.
She didn't expect that as soon as she left, such a big problem would happen in the shop. If she had known about it, she would definitely not have left first, but it was difficult to buy it for a long time.
So at this time, Su Zhi felt guilty in addition to guilt.
Qi Yunshu felt the strong concern and indebtedness from Su Zhi, couldn't help laughing, gently pushed her away, and comforted her with a smile: "It's nothing, it was originally my negligence, the so-called eating a trench and growing wisdom!" In the future, we will deliver the goods directly to the consignee, and then inspect the goods in person! ”
"Of course, it's just that it's hard for you!" Su Zhi originally thought that she was her dependence, and she habitually took the initiative to leave the problem to herself.
But in fact, she has basically not taken care of this shop until now.
But during the Chinese New Year, only a few months of business hours allowed her to receive more dividends than the shop she opened for a year!
I have to say that the business of the shop is so prosperous, which is inseparable from Qi Yunshu's careful management and continuous innovation!
In other words, she is in charge, I'm afraid she doesn't do as well as her!
At the same time, Qi Yunshu felt that these things were what she should do, if Su Zhi hadn't given her a chance, no matter how strong her ability was, there would be no use.
After a polite moment, the two talked about the pharmacy they had been discussing.
"The shop is good, and it is almost decorated, it is on Changhui Street, not far from the east of the city, I will take you to see it next time!"
Seeing that Su Zhi's efficiency was so high, Qi Yunshu was even happier, and hurriedly discussed many details of the shop with her.
Corresponding to each other, they were all very satisfied, Su Zhi looked behind her, and saw that she was still carrying the familiar green branches around her, so she couldn't help but lean close to her and whispered, "By the way, are you doing well in Zhao Mansion?" ”
Qi Yunshu's eyes flashed, she had never considered this question, and when she said it at this time, it was probably not good, nor bad!
"So-so!"
Needless to say, Su Zhi, who was also in the gate of the mansion, instantly understood her thoughts, and hesitated:
"By the way, Yun Shu, I have to remind you, the Zhao Mansion is a scholarly family, and there has never been a precedent for doing business for so many years, you are only afraid that you will be criticized by them!"
Qi Yunshu had already seen from the old lady and Zhao Hongyi's thoughts, they were indeed very dissatisfied with her, so what they wanted at first was not to let her enter the door, but because of Zhao Jing, the old lady Zhao had to give in, but the thoughts in his heart never changed!
"I see!" Qi Yunshu was a little disheartened. If she had to choose, she would definitely choose to do her business first and make money.
Su Zhi patted her shoulder and comforted: "But you don't have to worry too much, how can you live comfortably with money these days, don't you look at them being organized in front of people, in fact, they don't do business, where did they get so much money to support them to live such a decent life?" Many of them are either quietly doing business behind their backs, or they are just empty shells! ”
Qi Yunshu was stunned for a moment and listened to the last sentence.
Living in Zhao's Mansion these days, although I see that the mansion is spacious and vast, and the decorations inside are exquisite and gorgeous, I always feel that they give people a feeling that they are not very generous.
Especially when Zhao Jing broke out where Old Lady Zhao's money and hot spring Zhuangzi came from, the feeling in her heart became more and more profound.
Listening to Su Zhiyi at this time, she thought about it carefully and felt that it was reasonable!
Su Zhi said again: "But I see that Zhao Jing is dead set on you, and he is not close to the Zhao family, you can hold him, and his heart is stronger than anything else!" ”
Su Zhi was embarrassed to be said, and hid her face and snickered at Su Zhi's thoughts.
The two hadn't seen each other for several days, and they talked for a while when they first met, until Qingzhi whispered to urge her that she would have to go to the Xia family's courtyard to cook for Mr. Xia in a while.
Qi Yunshu said goodbye to her at this time, and when she walked to the door, she suddenly remembered something: "Since our pharmacy is going to be renovated, it's time to stock up!" ”
Su Zhi waved her hand from afar: "Don't worry, I already have a lot of medicinal materials there, and yesterday I had people rush to order several medicinal materials from the medicine garden, which is enough!" ”
Because of trusting Qi Yunshu's prescription, Su Zhi is indeed stocking up with all her strength!
When he arrived at the Xia family's courtyard, it was still a little scholar who came to pick up Qi Yunshu, and when he learned that Zhao Jing was still studying hard at this time, Qi Yunshu asked him not to disturb, shook the ingredients in his hand, and went straight to the back kitchen.
Since he had cooked here a few times, the little scholar now saw Qi Yunshu and consciously took her to the back kitchen. The two looked at each other, and they couldn't help laughing.
The little scholar is very clever, and knows that Qi Yunshu has good skills, but he is not good at igniting the fire, so he lit the fire first, and stayed to fight, and by the way, he stole the teacher openly.
By noon, Qi Yunshu had already made four dishes and one soup.
They are all home-cooked side dishes with Bashu flavor, braised pork belly, fish-flavored eggplant, mapo tofu, hot and sour chicken offal, and then a vegetarian soup.
As soon as he walked out of the back kitchen door with a tray, he saw Zhao Jingying coming up.
He was wearing a Confucian shirt embroidered with green bamboo, his posture was straight, and his steps were calm.
After seeing her, he walked a few steps quickly to meet the front and reached out to take the tray, showing a handsome smile: "The lady is here!" ”
Under the sun, he was like the most vigorous pine planted in this yard, green and straight, and the smile was more dazzling than the sun, shining into the depths of Qi Yunshu's heart.
"Well, I want to thank you, the matter is about settled!"
Zhao Jing was originally very happy, but he was choked by her thanks.
While the little scholar was talking to Qingzhi, he leaned over and grabbed her hand and said, "What are you doing politely with me?" ”
This guy, pulling a small hand, pulling a small hand, but still scratching her palm, Qi Yunshu's heart was like a deer, and her face instantly turned red to the base of her neck.
Afraid of being seen, she gently pushed him: "Don't make trouble!" ”
The scholar who was walking in front happened to turn around, and Zhao Jing was instantly serious: "I heard that someone in the third room is sick?" ”
Qi Yunshu was stunned: "You know everything?" She also heard Bowen mention it when she went out this morning, and he already knew about it from far away in the Xia family, so I have to say that his news is too well-informed!
"Yes, I heard that it's Fourth Young Master Zhao Xu!"
Zhao Jing's eyes darkened, and he suddenly told her gently: "Be careful in the house recently, don't go out of the yard casually!" ”
Qi Yunshu didn't understand at the time, and she didn't take it to heart, but after returning to the mansion from the Xia family's courtyard after lunch, she was invited to Songtao Courtyard by Mama Wang before she could sit down and drink saliva.
"Sir, please!"
Qi Yunshu looked at the familiar side hall, and couldn't help but think of the last time she was calculated by Mama Wang, afterwards she once gave her and the maid who stopped her a kind of medicinal powder that needed to be triggered, but then they forgot about it because they were busy clarifying the matter, and now Mama Wang actually came to the door.
Of course, she was not polite, her fingers pinched in her sleeves, and with a wave of a little, a colorless and odorless powder pounced out and flew towards Mama Wang's mouth and nose.
"Ah sneeze......" Mama Wang sneezed, Qi Yunshu covered her sleeves with her hands, covered her nose, and looked up to see Zhao Hongyi and Qin Yuru and his wife coming together.
