"I have one more thing to ask you, I wonder if you want to?"

Hongxue raised her head and looked at Sheng Zhiyao suspiciously: "What's the matter, master?" ”

"Can you help me take care of some of the critters? It's in the bamboo forest in the backyard. ”

"Is that okay? Does the owner want to have a pet? Hongxue asked, her eyes full of curiosity.

Sheng Zhiyao nodded: "Well, it doesn't have to be a pet, it may also be an animal that can be eaten." ”

"Animals that can be eaten?" Hongxue tilted her head and thought for a while and said, "You shouldn't be talking about chickens, ducks and geese, right?" ”

"That's right, that's the ones, plus some cattle and sheep, do you think it's okay?" Sheng Zhiyao asked with a smile, she had already decided to raise these small animals, because these small animals were of great use in her hands.

"Okay! Of course, everything that the master decides, everything is right. Hongxue immediately patted her chest and reassured.

Sheng Zhiyao smiled and nodded: "Then you have to remember one thing, these little animals are the cash cow of the owner." ”

"Don't worry, I'll treat them well, and I'll provide them with plenty of food!" Hongxue swore and said.

Listening to Hongxue's words, Sheng Zhiyao smiled: "Don't treat them as food." ”

"How can that be, I'm a dog that doesn't eat meat."

"Okay, let's go."

"Where are you going?"

"Buy the animals!"

"Master, you're really an impatient." Hongxue pursed her lips, but still followed Sheng Zhiyao.

"Oh! By the way, let's move that bucket of spiritual spring water to make tea for grandpa! Sheng Zhiyao suddenly stopped again and said to Hongxue.

"Okay, I'll go get it!"

"I'll be waiting for you in Grandpa's yard!"

Sheng Zhiyao disappeared into the courtyard after speaking, and as soon as she appeared at the gate of the Qingliu Courtyard of the Hou Mansion, she was blocked by a figure.

She was startled: "Grandpa, why are you here?" ”

"Why, grandpa's courtyard can't stay with grandpa? You're not afraid to scare others out of nowhere. The old marquis asked with a straight face.

Sheng Zhiyao smiled awkwardly: "How can it be, no one usually goes to the inner courtyard, but grandpa, are you going to go out?" ”

"yes, I'm going to buy something and come back."

"I'll go too, I'll go with you, let's take the red snow with us."

The old marquis looked at Sheng Zhiyao, thought for a while and said, "Okay." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Hongxue appeared at the gate of Qingliu Courtyard with a bucket of water, and put the water on the stone table beside her: "Master, the water is here." ”

"Why are you still carrying a bucket of water?" The old marquis also walked to the bucket and looked at it, and then looked at Sheng Zhiyao: "Is there anything special about this water?" ”

"You'll know when you drink it! You are amazed by the care, relaxed, and cured all diseases. Sheng Zhiyao said proudly.

The old marquis looked at Sheng Zhiyao with disdain, then looked at the bucket of spiritual spring water, and said in disbelief: "Can this ordinary water cure all diseases?" Are you sure? You won't be deceived by someone else out there, right? ”

"How can that, this water was personally beaten by Hongxue!" Sheng Zhiyao replied affirmatively.

"Okay, I'll try, but you feel a bit like a pyramid scheme." The old marquis looked at Sheng Zhiyao and said ill-intentionedly.

Sheng Zhiyao shook her head helplessly: "Grandpa, what nonsense are you talking about, are you belittling your granddaughter?" I'm your most beloved granddaughter, how could I be like that? ”

"Li Qiao, take this bucket of water to make a pot of tea."

"Yes, old marquis." Li Qiao walked to the stone table and picked up the bucket of water, turned around and prepared to leave.

Sheng Zhiyao hurriedly said to him: "Uncle Li takes grandpa's best tea leaves, and then don't waste the water, remember to move back." ”

Li Qiao was stunned for a moment, then nodded and walked away.

"What you're saying is as if our Hou Mansion can't even afford to drink a bucket of water." The old marquis glared at Sheng Zhiyao and said.

Sheng Zhiyao pursed her lips and ignored him.

Seeing her expression, the old marquis couldn't help but blow his beard and glare, but he couldn't do anything, because Sheng Zhiyao was his granddaughter and his favorite granddaughter.

Soon Li Qiao brought a pot of fragrant tea and put it on the table.

"Uncle Li, you can also taste it together, it will be good for your old wounds." Sheng Zhiyao beckoned Uncle Li to sit down, took out two tea cups and poured tea respectively.

Li Qiao picked up the tea and smelled it, then picked up the teacup and tasted it slowly.

"Well, it's good, it's delicious, it's very fragrant, and it's a little sweet!" Li Qiao said approvingly.

"Grandpa, you try first." Sheng Zhiyao handed one of the cups to the old marquis.

The old marquis took the teacup, took a sip, and the tea entered his throat, and he immediately felt that his whole body was warm.

This tea has a mellow taste, a long aftertaste, and a fragrant mouth, which makes people have an endless aftertaste.

"Good tea with good water, it seems that you got a bucket of mountain spring water." After the old marquis finished drinking, he nodded at Sheng Zhiyao and said.

"Yes." Sheng Zhiyao responded with a smile.

"But there is no spring water in the capital, where did you get it?" The old marquis looked at Sheng Zhiyao and asked.

"Well." Sheng Zhiyao thought for a moment: "Grandpa, don't ask yet, anyway, let's talk about this matter after we buy something." ”

The old marquis looked at Sheng Zhiyao, although he wanted to know what secret she had, but if Sheng Zhiyao didn't say it, he couldn't force her to say it.

"Okay."

So Sheng Zhiyao took her grandfather and Hongxue and left together and walked to the West Market in the capital.

"Grandpa, what are you going to buy outside?"

"It's just to go out and take a look, and buy what you like." The old marquis said lightly.

"Then grandpa, come with me to buy some live animals!."

"What are you going to do?" The old marquis frowned.

"Buy it and you'll know it when you get home!" Sheng Zhiyao blinked and said.

The old marquis glared at Sheng Zhiyao, ignored her, and continued to move forward.

"Grandpa, you go slowly." Sheng Zhiyao shouted.

"When it's here, you pick it yourself." The old marquis said and pointed to the cage in front of him, then stopped and waited for Sheng Zhiyao to come over.

Sheng Zhiyao looked at the position he was pointing at, and saw that the cage was full of chickens, ducks and geese, the vendors next to him were still selling cattle and sheep, and a few dogs were barking around the cage, so it was not lively.

"Grandpa, I want ten chickens, ducks and geese, five cows and sheep, and ten rabbits." Sheng Zhiyao looked at the old marquis and said.

The old Hou Ye was stunned, he didn't expect Sheng Zhiyao to ask for so many things, and she looked like she was planning to open a farm in the Hou Mansion.

What the hell is this girl doing, the old marquis looked at Sheng Zhiyao suspiciously.

Sheng Zhiyao also noticed the gaze of the old marquis: "Grandpa, don't worry, I don't raise you in the Hou Mansion." ”

"Then where are you going to raise it?"

Sheng Zhiyao raised his hand and shook it, and the old marquis instantly understood: "How can so many livestock fit in such a small place." ”

"Grandpa's place is big, you don't believe Hongxue."

Old Marquis Sheng looked at Hongxue, and Hongxue nodded affirmatively.

"That's okay, Li Qiao will pick it for her, and I'll let the boss send it to the Hou Mansion later."

"Yes, Master Hou." Steward Li responded.

The old marquis was the first to leave, and he didn't want to stay here.

Sheng Zhiyao was not polite, walked directly to the cage, squatted down, and looked at the chickens, ducks and geese in the cage: "You are blessed to meet me." As he spoke, he poked the chicken in the cage with his finger.

Steward Li discussed the quantity and price with the boss after a while, and then asked the boss to send it to Shenghou Mansion.

After the matter was done, Sheng Zhiyao was also relieved, and leisurely took Hongxue to walk around the market in the West Market.

Although the West Market is not as prosperous as Pingle Street, it is more fireworks, and it has a large population, good quality and low price, Sheng Zhiyao and Hongxue also bought a lot of things after wandering around here for half an hour.

When he returned to the Hou Mansion, the old Hou Ye was already waiting for Sheng Zhiyao in the hall.

When the old marquis saw her coming back with a large bag of things, he said distressedly: "If you buy so many things, you don't ask someone to come back and say it, can you take it?" ”
