Chapter 128: Li Luansong is back
The weather is getting hotter day by day, and summer is here again.
The summer in the north is drier and hotter, and Shen Qu adjusts his recipe to relieve the heat, making tea and soup every day, patients who come to the Chen family's small courtyard to see a doctor, neighbors passing by, and neighbors who come to play with their children...... People who come and go will serve a cup of herbal tea when they pass by, and drink it to cool off the heat and refresh.
This tea was taught by Li Luansong to make it, Shen did look at the tea soup, and his thoughts flew to two years ago.
At that time, they had just mistaken their identities, Shen was really weak, and he had to get up early to go to the study every day, and he had to go to the court after finishing his homework, and he had to go to practice in the afternoon, and he was dizzy and dizzy for Li Luansong every day, Li Luansong told her this secret recipe in order to relieve her heat, which was taught to him by his imperial grandfather, and he often called the kitchen to cook it and distribute it to the soldiers.
Shen did like to drink mung bean soup before, but since then, she has improved the herbal tea to make it more suitable for women, and the taste has slightly increased sweetness.
Li Luansong used to like this tea the most.
Shen did look at the tea soup in a daze, and after a moment of stunned work, the big bowl in Chen Da's hand was empty.
"Besides, I'm very thirsty today." He asked, his face flushed.
"Yes." Shen Qu turned around and brought out another bowl, "Can you see the shop?" ”
Chen Da drank it all again and said, "Look, I'm waiting for you to take a look." ”
Shen did smile and said, "Go now." ”
She turned around and changed into a dress, a water-green cotton skirt, with only a piece of floral cloth of the same color wrapped around her head, and no jewelry on her body.
explained that Zeeland was optimistic about the child, and the two went out.
Feng Yi is so small that she can walk around the entire market in the morning.
Chen Da glanced at Shen Qu and asked: "Actually, those jewelry are not all for purple, if you see that you can use it, you can use it to wear, you look good, you must look better when you wear those." ”
His face was red into a piece of silk cloth, and he didn't know whether it was sunburned or embarrassed.
Shen Qu raised his hand to cover the scorching sun, and said, "There's no need for that, I stay at home all day without going out and seeing no one, and it's not convenient to wear those to work." ”
Chen Da didn't say much, but he knew the sentence: A woman is a person who pleases herself, and she has no heart to pretend to herself.
The shop they wanted to see was in the center of the market, which had been empty since the disaster, with four shops unoccupied, and a sign hung all day long, which had been deformed by the sun.
"This is it." Chen Da pointed to one of them, "There are four rooms here, this one is on the corner, you see, open another door here, along the street on both sides, bigger and more spacious, and the business will be more imposing." ”
Shen did stop and look, this shop is indeed the best of the four, the door face is wide, the place where the plaque is listed is large enough, the layout inside is also very good, square, and the prosperity of the street market can be seen from the shop.
"That's good." Shen Qu appreciated, "What are you going to do, here." ”
"Next to the vegetable seller, the old couple's food is very fresh, it is grown by themselves, the price is also right, so the business is very good, opposite is the noodle shop, the business is not bad." Chen Da looked at her and said, "So I'm going to sell grain here." ”
Shen did know that he had been busy going to the farm recently, and he had been living for a long time, so he should have talked about very suitable and sufficient food.
"Yes." Shen Qu nodded, "The people who came here are ordinary people, everyone cares about eating, drinking, and Lazar, and Fengyi doesn't seem to have a big store to sell grain, and the disaster and famine in the past two years have been terrible, and the grain that was originally produced by itself has not been harvested." ”
"Exactly, I have calculated, the business will not be bad, I don't plan to sell it very expensive, so that everyone can afford to eat and make some money by the way."
Under the sun, sweat dripped from Chen Da's face and he smiled brightly.
Shen did say yes, "But it's not ......"
She looked left and right again, walked across the street and looked at it for a while, and then came back and said, "Let's settle it, these four rooms are all needed." ”
"What."
Chen Da was stunned, and Aunt Chen was also stunned.
The sun set, candles were lit in the house, and the family gathered around to eat twilight, and everyone was stunned by one sentence.
"Then it will cost a lot of silver, shall we have enough?"
"With such a big store, I can't do it alone, I'm not sure, what should I do if I mess up."
"Let's try to make a small one first, and then wait for the business to be good......"
Everyone raised concerns, and Shen said:
"When the business is good, those shops will not be able to be rented, and even if they can be rented, they will not be at the current price."
However, the price of the shop is indeed very low at present.
"Now that you have negotiated the supply of goods, which are sufficient and the price is low, then what is there to hesitate about." Shen asked him, "I'm afraid that I won't be able to do it well, and I'm not sure." ”
Chen Da nodded silently.
"You do it first, let's cooperate, I will be the major shareholder, you can invest as much as you want, let's be the largest grain shop in Fengyi County, not only Fengyi County, but also the surrounding villages and counties to supply, nothing more than hiring a few more ox carts."
Shen Qu thought about it a little in his heart, and said: "Tomorrow, you will go and sign the contract of the nearby grain producers, only for our family, I will write back to the capital to send you an experienced shopkeeper to help here for half a year, and then leave when the person you are looking for takes over." ”
Chen Da was dumbfounded and didn't know how to answer, and Aunt Chen patted the back of her son's head, "Silly boy, don't thank the Dong family soon." ”
Chen Da was busy getting up and thanking but was pulled by Shen Qu: "What is there to thank for, it is also the good supply and the shop you saw before, I just added more chips to make it bigger, and I also take the lion's share, so that our business can start, this is a good start, it is rare." ”
As she said, she had to help Chen Da on the horse and send him for a ride, and she could rest assured when she watched him do it steadily, otherwise it would hurt him.
The biggest wish, however, Shen Qu's heart was a lot more relaxed, and the government also came to the good news that the bandits in Wuyun Mountain were all exterminated, a total of five months, the world was finally peaceful, and the people of Fengyi celebrated for three days, and the streets and alleys were filled with laughter that had been lost for a long time.
As for the person who did the internal response, Shen did not inquire about the news, thinking about it, it should be kept secret for the sake of safety.
Li Luansong still has no news, but there is no national funeral in the capital, so I think it's a good thing.
Seeing that it was coming to winter, and Liuzi was already more than half a year old, Shen was indeed ready to return to the capital.
In the past few days, Aunt Chen and Mother and Son Chen have been busy preparing food for them on the road, as well as the boxes of treasures that left Zi Liu, all of which will be brought to the capital.
Early this morning, Aunt Chen took Zelan to the street, saying that she would buy a few more small clothes for Liuzi, for fear that the child would be frozen if it was cold on the road.
Shen was really busy treating people, and there were fewer people seeing a doctor these days, and there was no one in the courtyard before noon.
Chen Da was playing in the yard with the child in his arms, and the sun was shining warmly, which was very comfortable.
Liuzi was crawling in the yard, Chen Da used her as a horse to ride for a while, and teased her to play fishing for a while, and giggles came from the yard from time to time.
Shen Qu began to prepare lunch, and the sound of pots and pans sounded in the kitchen.
Chen Da took Liuzi to play, and the little doll was tired of playing and wanted to drink water, Chen Da got up and explained to her: "Be good alone, you can't run around, godfather will pour water for you." ”
After turning around, he came out with the water again, and there was no one in the yard, and the little purple was gone.
At that moment, Chen Da's brain seemed to be cracked, and he threw the bowl and ran out of the yard.
"Stay purple, baby."
He kept shouting on the street, his voice was hoarse, and he was crying, but the shuttle crowd came and went and didn't see the familiar little figure.
It's over, what can I do, the child was lost under my nose.
Chen Da cried, squatted in front of his house, and cried silently.
Shen Qu ran out when he heard the sound, and the moment he saw Chen Da, his mind was confused.
Liuzi was lost.
A little doll who is less than a year old can't even walk, how can she lose it in her own yard.
Just when Shen was stunned, Chen Da stood up suddenly, "I'll look for it, and I won't come back if I can't find Liuzi." ”
Before Shen did have time to open his mouth, the man had already run away.
The sun was shining warmly on the earth on the street, and the thought of Xiao Liuzi starving and freezing in such a cold weather made Chen Da's heart break.
"Girl, Liuzi, where are you?"
He wanders through the streets in despair, and everyone he knows helps find the child.
Walking aimlessly, when he arrived at the door of the shop that was about to open a shop, Chen Da's eyes lit up.
The four shops were being renovated, the walls were painted and the roofs were repaired, and there were people coming and going and dusty materials inside and out, and the ununopened signs were wrapped in red silk cloth, and a man stood on the stairs below.
The man had sword eyebrows and starry eyes, sideburns like a knife, a high nose bridge, and a little starlight shining in his deep eyes, standing there with broad shoulders and narrow waist, tall and strong, holding a milk doll in his hand.
"Purple." Chen Da ran over.
When the little doll saw him, she happily threw herself into Chen Da's arms: "Daddy, daddy......"
Li Luansong picked up a pink and tender little girl on the side of the road, looked strange and cute, and asked her not to say anything, it turned out that she couldn't speak yet, so she stood here with the child in her arms and waited for her family.
Sure enough, I waited for it.
After explaining the reason, Chen Da seemed to be a little unconvinced, and asked: "You are a foreigner, how can you pick up a child." ”
Li Luansong said with a smile: "I saw an aunt put her here, and then the person left, the child was crying at that time, the aunt looked very annoyed, I thought she was playing with the child, but I found that the person left and did not come back." ”
Auntie, a figure flashed in Chen Da's mind instantly, "But are you fat and short, there is a big mole on the side of your mouth." ”
"Exactly." Li Luansong said, "That's your lady." ”
"Bah." Chen said magnificently, "I know that this Diao woman is not well-intentioned, wait and see how I clean her up." ”
Li Luansong didn't know why, and after looking at it for a long time, the child was very intimate with the man in front of him, and his small mouth that couldn't speak kept shouting: Dad, Dad.
"Since she is your daughter, I will look forward to it in the future." Li Luansong took his leave, "Take the next step." ”
"Don't go." Chen Dayi grabbed him, "Come home with me, the child and her mother have to thank you in person." ”
