Chapter 31: Settle on a shop
"Madame is going to open a medical center?" Su Zi's face was full of surprise, and he asked in a low voice.
Fang Xu nodded, and said sideways, "Sort out where there is a shop transfer, and there is no requirement for the location." ”
"Yes."
The next day, Fang Xu got up early in the morning, grabbed Su Zi and Bai Ji, who were not completely awake, and went out.
Last night, she chose two shops, and the location and area were her favorites.
"Where is Mother going?"
The sudden voice stopped Fang Xu's footsteps, and when he looked back, he happened to meet Xie Wanzhou's eyes.
"It's a late boat." Fang Xu pursed his lips and smiled, beckoning to her.
Xie Wanzhou lifted the skirt and walked slowly to her, her little face full of puzzlement, "What is my mother going to do at such an early stage?" ”
"I'm going to set up a shop, and I'm going to open a medical clinic." Fang Xu's eyes were gentle, and his voice was soft, "It's you, why did you get up so early today?" ”
"The second brother said that Mr. Teaching came today and told me to get up early." Xie Wanzhou stuck out her tongue, "Try to make a good impression on Mr." ”
"You, you." Fang Xu looked at her quite dotingly, lowered his eyes and chuckled, "That's it, let's go to the hall and wait." ”
"Mother should be careful when she goes out."
Xie Wanzhou watched Fang Xu get into the carriage, and only then turned around and went back to the mansion until he couldn't see the shadow.
The carriage drove to the East Market, turned into a corner, and stopped at the end of the alley.
Fang Xu got out of the car with Bai Ji's hand, stood still, and raised his eyes to look around.
The shop is hidden in the alley, and there is only a plaque on the door, next to which is a red apricot hanging from the wall.
Seeing the red apricot, Fang Xu frowned imperceptibly.
"Ma'am, this is it." Su Zi looked at the drawings in his hand and whispered, "The previous owners of this shop were old couples, and they were old and inconvenient and could no longer operate, so they turned out." ”
Fang Xu nodded, signaling that he was clear.
Bai Ji stepped forward and knocked on the door, and said loudly, "The shopkeeper is not there?" ”
After a while, footsteps were heard inside.
With a creak, the wooden door was opened from the inside, and behind the door was not an old man, but a handsome man.
The man is wearing a gray-white robe, with an elegant temperament, a scholarly body, a very good-looking appearance, red lips and white teeth, more beautiful than a woman, and a pair of peach blossom eyes seem to be affectionate when looking at people.
"Eh......" Bai Ji saw that he was not an old man, his hand paused, and he turned his head to look at Su Zi, "What's going on?" ”
Su Zi was also stunned, kept looking at the paper in his hand, and muttered, "That's right...... This is talking about an old couple......"
"You're looking at each other, aren't you?" The man spoke slowly, like a spring stream, but it was very close to that appearance.
Fang Xu Zheng looked at him and said softly, "That's right, you are ......"
"That's right, my father is old, he doesn't want to move, and he rests at home, so I'm here to take you to see each other today." The man smiled softly, like a breeze on his face.
"Then there will be labor." Fang Xu nodded at him and walked inside.
It is said to be a shop, but it is just a slightly larger house, and in a few years, there are even clay kang and a few bookcases.
"To make you laugh, my father bought this courtyard for me to study, and he spent all his money, so he built an earthen kang here for rest." The man smiled apologetically and pushed the door open.
"The house here is not small, the yard is also big, you can do whatever you want to make a living." The man lowered his eyebrows and muttered in a low voice, "If it weren't for my mother's serious illness......
Fang Xu looked around, and also considered this courtyard in his heart, "I want this courtyard, how much silver?" ”
The man didn't expect Fang Xu to be so refreshing, his eyes fell on her brocade clothes, and he suddenly understood.
If you can wear this outfit, you must not be an ordinary person.
"My father said that this courtyard costs four hundred taels of silver." The man stood tall and jade, and said in a low voice, "After all, it is in the capital, and it is close to Dongshi, and the yard is not small......
"Deal." Fang Xu naturally knew the terrifying housing prices in the capital in his heart, "I'll give you five hundred taels, please find someone to help me clean up this shop, and I'll come over tomorrow to check it." ”
"Five...... Five hundred taels? The man was stunned for a moment, then frowned, "If it's just cleaning, it doesn't have to be so much." ”
Fang Xu seemed to be a little impatient, frowned and said, "Didn't you say that your mother was seriously ill?" ”
The man froze, staring at Fang Xu fixedly.
She...... but he heard his own words.
"What's your name?" Fang Xu raised his eyes and looked at the person in front of him, "How old are you?" ”
"Shen Ji, eight out of twenty." The man answered.
"Shen Ji?" Fang Xu looked stunned, and his face was suspicious, "The one who is full of talents?" ”
Shen Ji's face was as usual, and he nodded when he heard the words, "Yes." ”
Fang Xu looked at him, saw that he was wearing a long shirt and washed it white, and asked softly, "You are twenty-eight this year, don't you have a job next to you?" ”
"I'm a teacher in a school not far away." Shen Ji's posture is upright, and his aura is not ordinary, "If you have something to do in the future, you can come to me." ”
"Suzi, why do I think Madame looks like she is on a blind date?"
Not far away, Bai Ji leaned over to Suzi and asked in a low voice.
"Don't be a fool, madam, this is called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles." Suzi was expressionless, like an emotionless machine.
"My name is Fang Xu, if there is something difficult in the future, you can come to Yongcheng Houfu to find me." Out of politeness, Fang Xu also exposed his home.
Shen Ji was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes fell on Fang Xu's neatly arranged bun.
This woman is the head of the whole woman, and I think it should be someone's family in the Hou Mansion.
"Suzi, bring the silver ticket." Fang Xu beckoned behind him and called softly.
Su Zi answered, trotted over, and handed Shen Ji five silver tickets of one hundred taels.
"I'm tired of Shen Gongzi to find a cleaner to come, and I will have an account tomorrow." Fang Xu only left this sentence, received the deed, and turned around and left with the two maids.
Shen Ji held the five silver coins and froze in place for a long time, and after coming back to his senses, he walked to the wall and picked up the broom.
On the carriage, Bai Ji held his little face and looked puzzled, "Why did Madame give that man five hundred taels?" ”
Su Zi didn't understand either, and turned his head to stare at Fang Xu.
"No, I just think this man is not ordinary." Fang Xu pinched a piece of snack and slowly stuffed it into his mouth.
"What's so unusual, isn't he just a teacher!" Bai Ji pouted, very coquettish, "Madame, can you also feel that Bai Ji is not ordinary, and then give Bai Ji a little more money?" ”
Su Zi raised his hand weakly and whispered, "Madam, I don't think anything ordinary either." ”
Fang Xu: ......
"You two have itchy skin again, aren't you?"
There were bursts of laughter from inside the carriage, and from time to time the voices of two maids begging for mercy sounded.
set up a shop, but there were no medicinal materials, and Fang Xu's heart was still not steady.
"Suzi, you send someone to inquire tomorrow, where are the chrysanthemums, honeysuckles and licorice that are sold, they are all collected, we want as many as we want!"
