Zhao Yunlan calculated the money to build the house and pulled Li Mingren back to the house, Li Mingren thought that the lady was going to be sweet and sweet with him, and he was happy. But Zhao Yunlan coughed vigorously, Li Mingren didn't understand the meaning of Zhao Yunlan's cough, and asked, "Lady, is your throat uncomfortable?" ”

Zhao Yunlan rolled her eyes helplessly, thinking that her mother was coughing with her father like this just now!

Zhao Yunlan had no choice but to say bluntly: "You don't just have fifty taels of silver!" ”

Li Mingren was embarrassed all of a sudden, "Lady, it's really wise." It's a hundred taels in total. ”

Zhao Yunlan: "Then you are not going to hand it over, who do you want to spend so much money on?" ”

Li Mingren said anxiously: "Lady, I don't have it, I'm just ......"

Zhao Yunlan: "Huh? "Spread your hands.

Li Mingren understood: "Lady, give the remaining fifty taels." ”

Zhao Yunlan: "I don't even know about this, you can still quietly collect the money." If you don't have today, how long are you going to hide it? ”

Li Mingren: "Lady, I didn't mean to hide it from you, I just thought, I want to buy jewelry for my mother, and I finally have money, so I want to buy better jewelry for my mother." ”

Zhao Yunlan was happy in her heart: "Then I will forgive you this time, na!" I will leave you ten taels of silver. There are also gifts that are not valuable, but in your heart. ”

Li Mingren nodded, and couldn't help but hug Zhao Yunlan is nibbling. Xiaobao rushed in, "Mother, look at my ......" The little rabbit didn't finish speaking, "Mother, your mouth is so red!" Dad, you too. Dad, Mom, what good things are you eating? ”

Zhao Yunlan gave Li Mingren a roll of her eyes, and said to Xiaobao with a smile: "You asked your father, and your father gave it to me quietly." After saying that, he gave up the space to the father and son.

Li Mingren couldn't stand Xiaobao's foodie appearance, so he had to spend money to solve it.

The day when Old Man Li had calculated earlier that it was appropriate to break ground arrived, and Craftsman Zhang also arrived as promised, and the people hired by the village also came to Li's house. Zhao Yunlan invited everyone to drink a bowl of tea first, and Craftsman Zhang took the workers to start construction. Because the family was going to be completely demolished and rebuilt, Zhao Yunlan packed up all her things in advance and went to the small courtyard she bought in the town, thinking about living in the town for a while.

Li Mingli stayed in the village to supervise the process of building a house, so he lived in a hut on the other side of the mountain, next to Deng Yong's family, and had a companion.

Li Mingren sent Li Mingzhi to the school, and then left for the county to prepare for the county school. Li Mingyi returned to the shop, thinking that he would go to Fucheng to open a restaurant in the future, so no one would take care of the hot and sour noodle shop in the town.

Now the small courtyard in the town is inhabited by the old man Li and Li Mingmei of the Wang family, and Zhao Yunlan and Xiaobao. Li Mingyi now comes and goes every other day, and now almost all of his family members are in the town, so it is much more convenient for Li Mingyi to discuss things.

On this day, Zhao Yunlan had just come back from Lijia Village and saw that Li Mingyi was already waiting in the small courtyard.

"Sister-in-law, you're back, let's eat first! I have something to discuss with you. Li Mingyi said.

Zhao Yunlan: "Okay, eat first." ”

After the meal, the Wang family sat in the hall, and Li Mingyi said: "Sister-in-law, I think we should buy some people to come back and cultivate, otherwise we will go to Fucheng by then, and there will be no one to take care of this shop." ”

When Zhao Yunlan heard that she had bought someone, she was still a little resistant: "I think that Wang Er did a good job, let's train him." ”

Li Mingyi said with a straight face: "Sister-in-law, this Wang Er is doing a good job, but this is our own industry after all, Wang Er is not willing to sell himself, and I can't force others." This is still something that your own people can trust. ”

Old man Li also nodded beside him and said, "Yes, eldest daughter-in-law, this own business can't be handed over to outsiders to do." ”

Wang also said: "Well, what the second brother said is right, it should have its own manpower, tomorrow Yunlan will go to the tooth man to have a look, and it is convenient to live in the town now." ”

Zhao Yunlan could only nod in response to Wang's words, and sighed silently in her heart, as early as when she asked Li Mingren to insist on studying and taking the imperial examination, she understood the era she was in.

Zhao Yunlan went back to her room to sleep, thinking that she would go and see it tomorrow.

The next day, Zhao Yunlan came to Zhao Yapo, Qu Yapo knew about this, Qingshui Town's lady who had just been admitted to Xiucai this year, and led Zhao Yunlan with a smile on her face to see those who sold her body.

Zhao Yunlan looked at those people who were waiting to be bought, although the clothes were very old, they were also neat, their bodies looked thin, and their eyes were quite bright, Zhao Yunlan thought that this tooth woman was not treating these people harshly.

Qu Yapo asked: "I don't know what kind of subordinate the Xiucai lady will choose, I can introduce the lady one by one." ”

Zhao Yunlan was surprised that this tooth woman knew her identity, and then thought that this was a business for people, and Qingshui Town was not big, so if you want to do a good job in this business, you can't understand it clearly.

Zhao Yunlan said: "Then please introduce Qu Yapo first." ”

Qu Yapo immediately introduced: "This batch was originally a cook in a wealthy merchant in Fucheng, because the rich merchant wanted to take his whole family north, and he couldn't bring so many people to sell it. ”

Zhao Yunlan nodded, and Qu Yapo continued: "That family of three was originally the kitchen manager of an official's family" Speaking of this, Qu Yapo Ya lowered her voice, "That official committed corruption and was sent to the frontier, but fortunately, the official who committed the crime had a sensible mother, and sold all the people in the family in advance." ”

Zhao Yunlan nodded on her face and shook her head in her heart.

Hey~ This is really a knowledge! Zhao Yunlan listened to Qu Yapo's saliva and was about to run dry, and she didn't have an idea. Qu Yapo saw that Zhao Yunlan had not spoken, but she was not impatient, anyway, the business has not been prosperous recently, so it will not be delayed if she consumes it so much. Qu Yapo also served tea to Zhao Yunlan and made Zhao Yunlan think slowly.

Zhao Yunlan thought that her family would not have so many people now, and the Wang family said that she would arrange a small servant for Li Mingren, and Li Mingyi would take over the shop personally. Then it only takes two people.

Zhao Yunlan looked around, and finally locked her eyes on the family of three, and asked: "Qu Yapo, how much is the father and son...... Zhao Yunlan wanted to ask how much, but the words always felt weird.

Qu Yapo understood what Zhao Yunlan meant, and said with some embarrassment: "That family said that they wanted to sell it together, but they were unwilling to separate. ”

Zhao Yunlan looked at the woman in the house, and then looked at the others, there is indeed no suitable one, this man used to be a kitchen manager, and he must be quick to get started with the work on the stove, the children of that family look as big as Li Mingming, and they are almost the same as Li Mingren's little maid, and there are no other children of the right age, but this woman!

Hey~ It's okay for multiple people in the family to do housework, and I have to go to Fucheng to do my work later, and many people are at home to help Wang and Li Mingmei I can rest assured outside.

Zhao Yunlan decided, and didn't ask the price, but she really couldn't ask, so she paid the money, took the deed of sale, and left with someone.

Zhao Yunlan took the person to the small courtyard first, found some old clothes at home and changed them for the family of three first, so that the three of them could familiarize themselves with the family first, and Zhao Yunlan herself had to adapt to the life of a subordinate.
