"Ye is talented, how can you not know something in the world? It's really not, it's just praising you, Shui Yan, you don't know yet, I respect you as an idol, I, I also respect you very much, Lu Feng, you are his little uncle, if he dares to disrespect, you will beat him! I'm afraid that I won't be able to convince him! ”

"Are you using me as a puppet?" Su Zicheng was angry and laughed, Li Xiaoqi pulled his sleeve, and said with a smile while pulling him back: "The clay puppet statue is either a god or a saint, but it's terrible, okay, let's go back quickly, I know the gray cabbage, it's best to go back and blanch it with boiling water, what is that pig and mother dish, I still heard it for the first time, go back and ask Dayu if you know, hey, do you know?" Li Xiaoqi said, turned his head and asked Nanning and the others, Nanning hurriedly said with a smile: "This pig vegetable is the common name of our Beiping, this dish can be used in medicine, and there is a big name called purslane." ”

"This is what it is! Then I know, this purslane is a good thing, go back and let Dayu put more eggs, add a little wheat flour, fried yellow and crispy, but delicious! Li Xiaoqi turned his head to look at Su Zicheng, smiling like a flower, Su Zicheng was relaxed and comfortable by her smile and the short gossip of her parents, and nodded while laughing: "This is eaten, there is nothing you don't know!" ”

"Yes, the world is big, but it's not much, the people take food as the sky, this is a big deal!" Li Xiaoqi said and laughed in a relaxed mood, Luo Yan was right, said it, at least he had no scruples, so that he could live a relaxed life, and he wanted nothing else in this life, but to be free and comfortable.

Li Xiaoyi's ease made Su Zicheng also relaxed and happy, the two talked and laughed all the way back to the post station, Li Xiaoqi entered the second door, found a mother-in-law and asked for directions, and went straight to the direction of the kitchen, Nanning carried the basket and followed closely behind, Su Zicheng shook the folding fan, and followed behind unhurriedly, and walked to the kitchen. Nanning sent the basket into the kitchen and came out, and quickly waved his hand to retreat from the small servants, leaving only two small servants waiting outside the door to listen to the summons.

Begonia didn't know what this was at all, Dayu hesitated for a while before recognizing it, Li Xiaoqi had to talk and listen to the practices obtained at a glance, and then described the taste in detail, how it tasted, Dayu is a master of a very high level, and the cold gray cabbage tried for the third time, and it wiped out the orthodox taste that Li Xiaoqi said, then the egg fried purslane was simple, Li Xiaoqi withdrew from the kitchen with satisfaction, Su Zicheng stood behind Li Xiaoyi, Only then did I understand what kind of command method Li Xiaoqi was directing to cook, and finally endured it until he got out of the kitchen, and he almost couldn't even pinch the folding fan with a straight smile, Li Xiaoqi ignored him, went back to wash and changed into a green and yellow dress, and cleaned it up, Nanning was already waiting at the gate of the courtyard, leading Li Xiaoqi into the main courtyard, and Dongping was busy directing the small servants to serve the food.

Su Zicheng took a piece of purslane egg cake, looked left and right for a long time, and then tentatively tasted it, tasted it for a while, and was surprised and admired: "It's really delicious and delicious, rare!" Li Xiaoqi Gu took a bowl of clear chicken soup, soaked a few purslane cakes that were slightly larger than copper coins and fried to brown on both sides, and ate half a bowl of cold gray cabbage, Su Zicheng saw that she ate sweetly, and also learned to soak half a bowl of it, and the two finished eating a full plate of purslane cakes and cold gray cabbage, and drank a bowl of clear chicken soup, and the dishes next to it did not move at all.

The two of them ate well, Beiqing had already set up the red clay stove and was ready to make tea, Li Xiaoqi hurriedly asked, "Beiqing will make Pu tea, right?" Beiqing nodded with a smile and replied, Li Xiaoqi smiled and ordered: "I have some good general tea there, let people bring it, don't grind it, those muddy tea soup is the most difficult to drink, among these teas, I think general tea is good." Su Zicheng raised his eyebrows, daring to love his good tea in the past, all of which were dark pearls!

The two sat in the courtyard, drinking tea slowly, Su Zicheng looked at Li Xiaoqi and thought for a moment, it was better to tell her earlier about this matter.

"This spring, there was a great drought in several counties of the South Vietnamese River, and it has not rained for more than a month, I transferred Yao Mingguang, the garrison of Rucheng, to garrison Liang Yue borderland, and asked him to pretend to be ready to attack, this period of time often with stragglers to attack South Vietnam to try, South Vietnam is now transferred to the north of the southern army, the pressure on Chizhou has dropped sharply, and now the Chizhou Mansion has announced that Wu Guifei murdered the emperor, tampered with the edict, and the prince has also established himself as the emperor, and is preparing to attack the Taiping Mansion, the Taiping Mansion is ??????." Su Zicheng laughed lightly: "Empress Dowager Wu wrote me a letter, but she was also affectionate, and she was also a relative, so she borrowed troops to test her." Li Xiaoqi listened intently to Su Zicheng's words, Su Zicheng turned his head to look at Li Xiaoqi and said with a smile: "I replied to the letter, with her strength, the eldest prince is not a problem, and she did not give her the truth, your trip to Taiping Mansion has made great contributions." Su Zicheng suddenly turned to Li Xiaoyi, Li Xiaoyi looked at Su Zicheng in surprise, and waited for him to continue.

"I discussed it with my eldest brother a few times, if you don't reward you for this credit, you can't say it anyway, but if you reward it heavily, you are a woman after all, and you can't be an official, and the trip to the Taiping Mansion is secretive, I want to discuss with you first, and I will reward you with gold and silver, what do you think?" Li Xiaoyi's heart beat wildly when he heard it, and gold and silver were rewarded! It's a good thing she's always dreamed of! Li Xiaoqi bit his lip, suppressed the surprise and surprise in his heart, and was silent for a moment before looking at Su Zicheng and said tentatively: "How much can I reward?" Su Zicheng hesitated for a while, looked at Li Xiaoqi and replied, "Gold and gold." Li Xiaoyi's eyebrows suddenly rose, a smile bloomed on his face, and he kept nodding and agreeing: "Just ten thousand taels of gold!" That's ten thousand taels of gold! I don't want anything on the side, I just want this gold ten thousand taels! Su Zicheng looked at Li Xiaoqi with a look of ecstasy in amazement.

Li Xiaoqi danced and was excited for a while before he gradually calmed down, grabbed the cup and drank most of the cup of tea, with a smile on his face, looking at Su Zicheng with a smile and sighing: "You don't know, I have a lot of plans, but I can't do a single one because I don't have the capital!" Now it's okay, with this golden tael, then you have everything! But three or five years, you see! This gold 10,000 taels can turn over 100,000 taels or 200,000 taels! I am going to build a fleet, build the largest and most powerful fleet, and make a lot of money across the ocean, Lukang to the south, not far from the mainland, there are many wooded islands, and when I earn money, I will raise more bodyguards and occupy the island to live! Oh! Be sure to plant peach blossoms on the island, so you name it Peach Blossom Island! Li Xiaoqi talked to himself, he and he laughed back and forth, the corners of Su Zicheng's eyes twitched slightly, looking at Li Xiaoqi who was dancing, and suddenly a thick sense of remorse rushed up, and he didn't know what to say for a while, Li Xiaoyi's messy plans made him feel a little upset, annoyed and more and more tormented.

"Ten thousand taels of gold!" Li Xiaoqi patted the armrest of the chair heavily, sighed excitedly, and leaned back in the rocking chair: "It's 100,000 taels for silver!" In the end, the royal family is rich! Let's say it's good, it's 10,000 taels of gold! Li Xiaoqi looked up at Su Zicheng slightly and confirmed, Su Zicheng plausibly 'snorted': "But listen to what you mean first." ”

"I mean ten thousand taels of gold! How wonderful! Li Xiaoqi stretched out his fingers one by one: "Things have to be done one by one, first, go back to see the goods of the weaving mill, if it is not worse than the Taiping Mansion, add 10,000 taels of silver to it, if you want to do it, you have to make it bigger, and you have to open a shop in Kaiping Mansion, since you have money, this shop has to be opened in style, and in the second half of the year, you will open the semicolon to Huainan Road and Liangdi!" Second, Luoyan is the most expensive here, buying a house is a big expense, and there are others, not to mention 20,000 taels of silver, wider, give her 25,000 taels, and then build a fleet, forget it, build a fleet of these silver is much less, let's build two boats first, two ships go to sea together, and there is something to take care of??????" Su Zicheng was distraught by Li Xiaoyi's dream-like careful calculations, and his face became more and more gloomy, and he couldn't help but interrupt Li Xiaoyi's words irritably: "You are a girl's family, doing this business and doing that business, what do you want so much silver for?" 100,000 taels of silver is not enough for you to use for a lifetime? ”

"You don't understand this, do you?" Li Xiaoqi turned his head and looked at Su Zicheng: "Sit and eat the mountain, this is one, the other, doing business to make money, just like you attack the city and plunder the land, this is also its own fun, in fact, 100,000 taels of silver is really not enough for me to live a lifetime, besides, if you have more money, it is better to do some good deeds, like the mother-in-law just now, her family has a little four, smart but no money to go to school, in the future, I earn money, earn enough money, I will build righteousness in various places, invite everyone who is really knowledgeable to come to class, as long as the children of poor families are willing to learn, there is no need to be bound, I also provide him with two meals a day, Girls can also come, if you have more money, just build some poor homes for the elderly or something, you see, there are many places to use money! You can't make any money! Li Xiaoqi said casually, but Su Zicheng only stared at one sentence and asked, "One hundred thousand taels of silver is not enough for you to live a lifetime?" ”

"Well, didn't I say it, I'm going to build a Peach Blossom Island, how can it be enough? Oh! Ten thousand taels of gold! Okay, it's late, I won't bother you much, let's leave early tomorrow, and there are a lot of things to do when we go back to Kaiping Mansion! You say yes, right? Li Xiaoqi stood up, turned around briskly, bent his knees at Su Zicheng and said goodbye, and walked out of the courtyard briskly.

Su Zicheng followed and stood up, hesitated, took a few steps to follow Li Xiaoyi, and did not speak, only followed Li Xiaoqi all the way and sent her back to the side courtyard, Li Xiaoqi smiled and bent his knees to thank him, watching her enter the courtyard, Su Zicheng did not stop, returned to his courtyard with his head hanging his hands behind his back, and stood in the courtyard for a long time before dragging his steps into the house to rest.
