"It's Li Xiaogongzi, please come in quickly!"

The shopkeeper of Tong Ren Tang was an old man of almost sixty years old, thin and with a black and white goat's beard.

The family has practiced medicine for generations, and this pharmacy is also his ancestral business.

By his generation, the development was not bad, and he was well-known in Beiping City.

When he saw Li Xiao, he was very excited, and trotted over with a delicate wooden cane, and the old man Li Xiao went to the hospital to ask.

"Xiao Gongzi, I must be able to come in and have a cup of tea before leaving, I really want to see you and thank you in person." A warm invitation from the shopkeeper.

"That's fine."

Li Xiao thought about it and thought that he didn't have anything too important, so the other party was so enthusiastic that he would sit down.

followed the shopkeeper into the pharmacy, and the scale of the pharmacy was quite large.

The medicine shelf inside looks like it's a bit old, and it's an old store.

Passing through the lobby, there are several medicine houses, there is a hole in it, it is a large courtyard, and you can see many guys sorting out medicinal herbs or grinding medicines, which seems to be very busy.

Finally, I came to the courtyard, a chicly decorated house.

It should be used to entertain distinguished guests.

"Ying'er, quickly pour tea for Li Xiaogongzi."

After the shopkeeper greeted a young girl, he then took Li Xiao's hand affectionately and sat down.

"Xiao Gongzi, the couplet you wrote to our Tongrentang last time is really wonderful."

"Since that couplet was hung up, the business of our pharmacy has improved by 50%."

"Compare the time-honored brands such as Dejitang and Baiherbal Medicine Shop."

The meaning of the words, the couplet given by Li Xiao, directly increased the business by fifty percent.

They Tongrentang, an unintentional move, sponsored a lantern festival with Jin Fengluan jewelry shop, and got a good couplet.

You can imagine how happy they were.

I have competed with other pharmacies for most of my life, but I haven't been able to distinguish a winner.

It's really hard to get through the iron shoes, and there is nowhere to find them

It didn't work out, but in the end I won on a couplet!

"This is something that the old man never expected!"

"A simple couplet is so useful."

"Come on. The two hundred taels of color heads that day were really less. ”

"Later, the old man wanted to thank you in person, and asked the shopkeeper of Jin Fengluan, but they also said that they couldn't find anyone."

"You're here just in time, and I'm going to thank you for it."

"Childe is really a great talent in the world!"

As the old man spoke, his face was full of smiles, and finally he praised him fiercely.

"The article is made by nature, and the magic hand gets it."

"I was also inspired, everything was providential."

"You drugstores should have gotten this couplet."

Li Xiao said so modestly, but he had a small calculation in his heart.

The pharmacy should have some good things like ginseng, angelica, and reishi, right?

These can also be used as a dowry!

Since the other party wants to thank me. Then you're welcome.

"Childe is too modest! What a genius in the world! ”

The old man smiled and said, "Don't you know how envious the shopkeeper of the Deji Hall and the Hundred Herb Shops are when they see the couplets of our pharmacy."

While speaking, the young girl who had just been instructed walked in with a tea tray, put it on the table, and served tea to the two.

The old man changed his words and said: "Li Xiaogongzi, you have to love the old man, everyone outside calls me a happy old man, this Tongrentang is the old industry." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the young girl and said, "This girl is the granddaughter of the deceased deceased friend, named Xu Ying'er, sixteen this year, if Xiao Gongzi doesn't dislike it."

Needless to say, everyone who understands this part understands it.

This Tongrentang Le Lao saw that Li Xiao was handsome, talented, and gentle and kind to girls.

I want to find a good home for this old friend granddaughter.

Although the other party seems to have a favorite girl.

But this doesn't prevent him from taking a concubine?

A capable man, which one is not to take a few wives?

Being able to afford multiple wives is a sign of ability now.

The girl named Xu Ying'er was Bo Shi Fandai, and her little face was as white as jade.

The eyes are rippling, incomparably watery, clear as a pool of clear water.

Hearing this, Xu Ying'er's face turned red.

She lowered her head, didn't dare to say a word, and stood silently aside, twisting the hem of her skirt to hide her nervousness.

Her family was backward in the middle of the road, and she had no choice but to take refuge in her father's old friend.

has been sending people under the fence and living in his father's happy home.

Although Le Lao was very good to her, she had nothing to say.

But after all, Huang's family has a big business, and there are six sons in the family.

The relationship is complicated, and they all have to compete for industry.

None of those sisters-in-law were fuel-efficient lamps.

openly and secretly said that she eats idle food, and she has worked very hard, but she still can't avoid cynicism.

Hearing Le Lao say this, she knew in her heart that Le Lao didn't want her to leave, but wanted to find her a good family.

She had some expectations, and it would be a good thing to leave here.

Merely.

Li Xiao, who heard this, almost squirted out a mouthful of tea.

"Le Lao, are you mistaken, I have a daughter-in-law!"

Li Xiao swallowed the tea that was about to squirt out.

"Old man knows, it's that Ningyun girl."

Yue Lao smiled kindly and said, "That Ningyun girl is indeed talented, your love world can be learned!" and you are really talented and beautiful, a pair made in heaven, and a pair on the ground. ”

He changed his words and said: "But if you want to hold a good family, you can't just have a talented girl!" ”

He patiently explained to Li Xiao: "If a family wants to prosper, it must have a girl who can make careful calculations, take care of housework, and do things quickly." ”

As he spoke, Le Lao pointed at Xu Ying'er and said, "This girl is very clever, she has learned a lot from me in arithmetic, business, and shop management over the years, and can help you run your family." There is no need to be the main house, and the old decay will prepare a generous gift. ”

This old man Le is very shrewd, knows countless people, and can see at a glance that Li Xiao is a person.

With the touching performance on the day of the Shangyuan Festival, you can think of it.

Even if it's a concubine, it will be taken seriously.

This girl will definitely be happy if she follows Li Xiao.

The other party is handsome and has a good figure, so he must be very energetic.

"Le Lao, don't mention this matter again!"

Li Xiao resolutely refused without a trace of hesitation.

Let yourself take a concubine.

Are you kidding?

You're trying to kill me. Uncle Yue will definitely kill me

Hearing this, Le Lao made a look.

Xu Ying'er took two steps, read her skirt, and plucked up her courage to say: "Xiao Gongzi, Xiaoying is very capable, I am not afraid of hardship, I am not afraid of tiredness, even if it is a little housework, it is no problem, you can marry me, I don't mind being a small one."

Li Xiao frowned slightly and looked at Xu Ying'er.

As long as you nod your head, not only can you have more wives, but you can also get a rich dowry?

This girl is indeed very good-looking. Watery

Syllable!

He slapped himself in the face.

Scolding yourself for being a scumbag, how can you step on two boats?

"Girl, you misunderstood, I only have Mrs. in my heart, and I can't accommodate the second one."

Li Xiao got up directly and arched his hand towards Le Lao: "Le Lao, I'll leave today." ”

After speaking, he grabbed the door and left without looking back.
