Shadow Sky came and handed the few ledgers he found to Qingdi.

Qingdi took the account book and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "With so many account books and so many businesses, the master must not be able to manage it alone." ”

Ying Konglai nodded and said, "Yes, there are only a few rooms that the master is in charge of, and of course the others are distributed to the people below, so the master doesn't know what the situation is for many shops, such as the wine shop that the eldest young master gave you just now." ”

Qingdi was stunned, and hurriedly asked, "Is there anything wrong with that wine shop?" ”

"There's no problem, the advantages mentioned by the eldest young master naturally exist, but the winery has lost money several times in recent years, and the people inside are ......" Yingkong said, sighed and said: "Second young lady, it's not a good errand for you to take over the winery, but I will try my best to help you." ”

Qingdi became more and more incomprehensible, and asked, "What's wrong with the people in the wine shop?" ”

"Because they are all older people, they will be very rigid and like to make their own decisions, and after you go, they may not listen to you and still act according to their own wishes." Yingkong said, smiled at her, and comforted: "But don't be afraid, when the time comes, you will also take the second young master with you, the old man is famous for doting on the second young master, and they will definitely not dare to refute the second young master." ”

Qingdi thought about it for a moment, and was really a little worried about what she heard. She didn't want these people to do anything by listening to her, but she was thinking about what if she asked to change the recipe for brewing, and they wouldn't want to.

"Second Young Lady, Ji Citang's shopkeeper's surname is Zhang, I heard Zhang's shopkeeper say that you have also met him before because of some things in the Prime Minister's Mansion." Shadow Sky spoke again, interrupting Qingdi's thoughts.

Qingdi came back to his senses, nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Ji Citang is what I told you, it belongs to cooperating with the Chu family, the Chu family is their owner, but they don't belong to the Chu family. When you get there, you're mainly learning from shopkeepers. ”

"Okay." The green flute responded.

"Ji Citang's business is very good, and it will make a lot of profits every year, and the specific account books are there, the second young lady will take a look first." After Yingkong finished speaking, he said: "It's not early today, so the second young lady should go back and rest first." ”

Qingdi nodded, and then followed Shadow Sky to leave the place.

Back in Luli Xinyuan, Chu Yaocen also came back, hugging Yan Xi and gently comforting it. When he saw Qingdi coming in, he said, "Why is the little fox injured?" ”

Qingdi sighed, a little like he was thrown by Yin Jixuan, but if he asked this, maybe Chu Yaocen would have to ask why he fell, then Yan Xi would have to say about biting him, why he bit him, and he still didn't let Chu Yaocen know too many bad things.

Qingdi thought so, and said, "It's all because I didn't take care of Xiao Yanxi, I'm sorry." ”

Qingdi leaned over and touched Yan Xi's head, and Yan Xi leaned over and rubbed her palm.

Chu Yaocen sniffed and said, "Yan Xi didn't blame you, because if Yan Xi hated anyone, he wouldn't be close to anyone anymore." ”

Qingdi nodded, dragged a stool to sit down, and began to talk to Chu Yaocen about serious things: "Yaocen, my father-in-law called me over today and told me to give me two shops and let me take care of them." One is Ji Ci Tang, and the other is a wine shop. ”

After hearing this, Chu Yaocen couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth and said, "Little fox, you are so powerful." ”

"Don't say that yet, I may not be able to do a good job," Qingdi also smiled and said to Chu Yaocen, "How about you and I working together?" Tomorrow I will go to the medicine hall, and you will go with me. ”

"Me?" Chu Yaocen stretched out his finger and pointed at himself, his eyes showed a look that he had never seen before, and nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Qingdi smiled slightly and nodded.

"Do my mother and eldest brother know about this?" Chu Yaocen asked again.

The smile on Qingdi's face suddenly froze there. He still doesn't know if she knows that she is going to take over the shop, and I don't know how she will react...... But sure, it won't be too happy.

They were talking about Ho here, and Ho was talking about them. As soon as He heard Chu Linyuan finish talking about the matter of the Qingdi shop, he immediately made a face and asked Chu Linyuan, "Linyuan, are you crazy?" Ji Citang makes so much money every year, why do you want to give Qingdi? ”

"Mother, I'm not for Qingdi, but for Yaocen. And I have too many shops in my hands, it's better to give it to my brother than to others, right? Chu Linyuan said lightly: "I didn't plan to tell you about this, but I think your ears and eyes will tell you these words sooner or later, so I will tell you directly." Don't plan to let me do anything to get the shop back, it's impossible, because the second brother should have these in the first place, and he will have more land in the future. ”

"Are you stupid?" He Shi sighed and said earnestly: "Chu Yaocen is just a fool, what kind of shop do you need to run?" Wouldn't we just keep him? ”

"Mother, Yao Cen is my younger brother." Chu Linyuan said this, then stood up, as if he was leaving, before leaving, he suddenly said again: "By the way, mother, don't teach Lihuan anything about monopolizing family property in the future, let him learn better, child." ”

After saying this, Chu Linyuan really walked out.

This made He angry, sat back in his chair, and sighed incessantly.

Mother Liu, who was beside her, waited for her to calm down, then stepped forward and said, "Madam, don't be angry, the eldest young master has such a temper." But if the second young lady goes to the shop now, there will be nothing to do with the old slave, and the old slave is not easy to teach her the rules of the school on weekdays, and it is not convenient for her to learn honestly......"

"I know," He glanced at her with a frown, "I'm trying to figure it out." ”

"Madam, the old slave knows that there is a person who may leave the second young lady, at least the second young master, in the mansion, and he doesn't have the heart to pay attention to the affairs of the medicine hall." Mother Liu said, seeing that He Shi moved her eyes over, she continued: "There is a little peach girl in the courtyard of the second young master, and I don't know where the second young master got it, she has a big belly, and I don't know if it is the second young master's child." ”

He's eyes lit up and said: "Since they were all brought back, naturally they are his children, but I really didn't expect that a fool could be so romantic, and he also brought a woman back outside." ”

Mother Liu nodded and said, "The old slave thinks that the woman must be a fireworks woman, and she was brought back by the second young master because of her belly." Don't look at the second young master's stupidity, but the second young master is also a man, which man doesn't steal. ”

He nodded, "Okay, you can bring her over tomorrow." ”

"Yes." Liu's mother responded.

Early the next morning, Qingdi and Chu Yaocen followed Yingkong to Ji Ci Hall at the entrance of the East Market.

Shopkeeper Zhang had already come out early, greeted him and said, "Young master, young lady, shadow boy, you came here so early, please come in." ”

Ying Konglai smiled at him slightly, and said, "The young lady and you should also be old friends, and in the future, the young lady will be in charge of the operation of your side, and you should take care of the young lady more." ”

Qingdi also chuckled and said, "Yes, I don't know much about these things, please mention more in the future." ”

Shopkeeper Zhang hurriedly said: "I don't dare to mention it, but we will definitely try our best to help the young lady." ”

As a few people were talking, Shopkeeper Zhang took Ying Konglai and others to familiarize themselves with the structure and personnel of the medicine hall, and after reading it, everyone returned to the front hall.

The shopkeeper beckoned everyone to sit down, and ordered the guys to serve tea, and then sat down himself, and planned to report to a few people about the business situation that came in, he was just about to speak, and suddenly a woman walked in outside, very thin, her eyebrows and eyes were full of sorrow, and she was tied with a white filial piety cloth around her waist, and she glanced at the shadow and waited for the three people, and then went directly to the shopkeeper Zhang and said: "The shopkeeper, when will my husband's matter be resolved?" ”

Shopkeeper Zhang had a little wrong on her face when she came in, and now when she heard her say this, he quickly stood up and said to the woman: "Didn't I say that I would give you an answer when the government gave me an answer?" You come back to me later, now I have guests here, and I don't have time to do your business. ”

"Do you want me to wait?" As the woman spoke, tears had already remained, and she pursed her lips and said: "I've been waiting for more than a month, even if my husband's body is frozen, it's about to rot, when will you solve it for me, I want my husband to be buried in the ground as soon as possible." ”

"We are also waiting for the government's reply, don't worry, you go back first, our Ji Citang century-old brand will definitely not let it go!" The shopkeeper Zhang was so angry that he urged the woman: "You go back quickly, don't make everyone unhappy." ”

"Not happy? My husband died of taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor in your hall, and you still want to be happy? The woman was very angry and yelled at the shopkeeper.

"Okay, don't make a fuss, since we're all here now, let's make things clear." Shadow Sky came to listen to the matter, and asked, "We are the owners of Ji Ci Hall. ”

When the woman heard this, she quickly turned her gaze to the three of them, and after being stunned for a while, she knelt down with a puff and said, "Several lords and ladies, my husband was originally a strong and healthy man, and he was infected with wind and cold more than a month ago. Is my husband dying in vain? ”

"How can there be such a thing as a vain death?" Shopkeeper Zhang hurriedly spoke: "Didn't I tell you?" Because we didn't find out whether your husband died because our doctor prescribed the wrong medicine or because of your husband's own reasons, we can't just blame us for this matter. You'll have to wait for the results of the post-mortem to come back before we can decide how to solve it. ”

"What wait for the results of the government!" The woman stood up abruptly and shouted at the shopkeeper Zhang: "You officials and businessmen collude, who doesn't know that your Ji Citang is under the name of the Chu family, and the Chu family is so powerful, of course you want to bully ordinary people like us!" ”

"Who dares to bully people in the name of the Chu family, our Chu family is unwilling." After the woman finished yelling, Qingdi got up and answered.
