"Why are there so many?" Zhong Ziqi exclaimed, the bank note was as much as three hundred taels, how did he earn it
Could it be... It was robbed
Ahem, Zhong Ziqi threw out the unrealistic thoughts in her mind. It's just that he thought that earning a maximum of one hundred taels was the best. After all, he only took twenty taels of silver when he left. Who would have thought that it would be so much doubled.
Zhao Zheng'an looked at him with a look of surprise and joy, and his heart was filled with satisfaction. Even if the hardships along the way or the bandits almost killed him, he felt it was worth it.
Zhao Zhengan didn't want to tell him about those dangerous things, so he only told him some simple interesting things, such as those shells and conchs he resold, and many weird things, things about making money, in fact, if it wasn't for those It is impossible for a child from a family to make so much money all at once. He has already offered a high price, and he only sells it to rich people, and those rich children often set a lot of money, and the rest will be rewarded to him as tips. .
"It's rich and willful!"
Zhong Ziqi shook her head as she listened, ordinary people like them would like to break a penny in half, but these rich people squander it recklessly, what money is not hard-earned by parents, in his father's words: it is lightly beaten.
Zhong Ziqi is not hating the rich, but just feeling a little bit emotional, because there was no shortage of such people in her previous life, it can be said that they can be found everywhere. It is only now that people living at the bottom feel how big the gap between the rich and the poor is, and those who are rich and rich only care about their own leisure, and some of them really care about the common people.
"and also… "
Zhao Zheng'an carried the big and small bags he bought back to the kang.
"What is it?"
Zhong Ziqi curiously opened a box, which contained dried fruit that he didn’t know what to make of. Zhong Ziqi took a look at its dark appearance, hesitated to eat one, his eyes lit up, it was sour, sweet and delicious.
Zhong Ziqi took apart the hill-like things one by one like digging for treasure. There are everything in it, such as lotus root and rice noodles unique to the south, sour plums, dried fruit made of unknown origin, snow-white pearls, various shells and conchs, even several yams, and many Zhao Zhengan listened to. Speaking of medicinal materials and fruits that are nutritious to the body, etc., there are a lot of messy things anyway.
Zhong Ziqi said distressedly: "You... why did you buy such a thing? How much does it cost?"
Zhao Zheng'an smiled indifferently: "It didn't cost much. These things are very expensive in our opinion, but they are very common in other places. I always buy them from other people's houses. They are absolutely cheap."
"Why do you buy so many medicinal materials? There are other miscellaneous things that are useless? I haven't seen them before, and I'm not afraid they will be spoiled!" Zhong Ziqi said speechlessly.
"These are all good for the body. I've asked the doctor about it. It's fine to put some in cooking. The properties of the medicine are very mild and there is no conflict. They can nourish the body."
Zhong Ziqi nodded and felt relieved. Otherwise, he would not dare to eat such things as medicinal materials.
Zhao Zheng'an found another box, opened the box, and there were two wooden hairpins in it, which were the two bought in Yongquan City: "Look, are they beautiful?"
Zhong Ziqi nodded: "It looks good."
He has no pursuit of these accessories, the one he is wearing now is the simplest and cheapest wooden hairpin, without even a pattern on it.
But he never cared about these things. He could only sigh the waste of those rouge accessories that Zhao Zhengan bought. He couldn't bear to smear his face like a monster. points, too scary.
"I'll bring it for you." Zhao Zhengan got up and took off the hairpin from Zhong Ziqi's head, inserted the new one into his hair, took a step back to look at it, and nodded with satisfaction: "It's very beautiful, I'll take it with me in the future."
Zhong Ziqi touched the wooden hairpin and nodded. Anyway, the color is simple and elegant, so I took it with me.
"By the way, have you found out about the miracle doctor?"
Zhao Zhengan scratched his head in embarrassment when he heard this.
Zhong Ziqi immediately looked at him with a bad face: "You must have forgotten, right?"
Zhao Zheng'an really forgot, he inquired about it at first, but then he forgot it in a hurry. And he always went to the corners to find a miracle doctor.
"Forget it. Fortunately, my uncle and I have already talked about it, and he promised to help me find it."
Zhong Ziqi rolled her eyes, feeling like the emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuchs were in a hurry.
Zhao Zheng'an knew he was right to please him, so he leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.
At night, the two who had been separated for a month and a half naturally caught fire like dry wood. The two rolled around on the kang doing some kind of regular exercise, roaring and moaning one after another.
The next day, Zhong Ziqi undoubtedly got up late again. When he woke up, it was already bright, and the house was quiet inside and outside the house, occasionally there were two roosters crowing and big black and small black whimpering.
Zhong Ziqi put on her clothes and got out of bed with a little limp legs. Unsurprisingly, she saw Zhao Ning cooking again in the kitchen.
"Hey, you're up!" Zhao Ning said.
"What about him?"
"Your Zhao Zheng'an has gone to town!"
Zhong Ziqi nodded, the two of them can't be at home together, unless there is something unavoidable.
After washing up, Zhong Ziqi sat at the table and began to eat whether it was morning or evening.
"Ziqi, tell me about it." Zhao Ning asked with staring eyes.
"say what?"
"Didn't Zhao Zheng'an tell you what he saw and heard? Would you please tell me too?"
Zhong Ziqi drank the porridge and shook her head: "I didn't say anything, but I have been to a few interesting places."
Zhong Ziqi said something picky and picky.
Zhao Ning was fascinated by what he heard: "I heard that it's warmer in the south, and there are so many delicious things, isn't it?"
"The winter in the south is indeed much warmer than here, and in some places it is even like spring all year round."
After Zhong Ziqi finished speaking, she looked at Zhao Ning's envious face and couldn't help jokingly said: "Why don't I ask my brother-in-law to find you a good marriage in the south and let you marry there, so that you can have a good life and see what the south is really like. That's it."
Zhao Ningxin thought it was true and quickly shook his head to evade: "Don't... I'm just asking, I don't want to marry so far away, and it's hard to go back home. If I am wronged at my husband's house, I don't know who to cry about."
"Oh... are you sure there is no other reason? For example... have a girlfriend?" Zhong Ziqi said deliberately eccentrically.
Zhao Ning blushed instantly, and stumbled and said, "You... what are you talking about? What... what kind of lover? What should I do if people hear it?"
Zhong Ziqi suddenly realized: "It turns out that someone with a look of yearning all day long is not a good match, so how about I introduce you to one? Guaranteed to be a good person and a good family background."
"Hurry up and eat your meal, you won't be able to stop your mouth if you eat so much." Zhao Ning said angrily.
Zhong Ziqi smiled and shook her head.
After dinner, and Zhao Ning entered the room, Zhong Ziqi took out a box of rouge from the cabinet and gave Zhao Ning some delicious food.
Zhao Ning was immediately attracted to the food, and was amazed by the delicious food. The south is really delicious.
Then he picked up the rouge that Zhong Ziqi handed over and studied it.
"Do you like it?" Zhong Ziqi asked.
"I like it. Did you buy this from the south? It smells so good, even better than what Damei's husband bought for him." Zhao Ning said lovingly.
Zhong Ziqi had heard of Damei, a distant cousin of Zhao Ning. Although he was also married to a peasant family, that family had a good family background, and the jewelry and rouge they bought for him were better than those of ordinary people.
"If you like it, I will give it to you."
Zhao Ning was shocked and hurriedly returned it to Zhong Ziqi: "I don't want it. Zhao Zhengan bought it for you with great difficulty. I don't want it. You can put it away quickly."
Zhong Ziqi smiled, and handed it to him again: "Take it, I still have it. He bought two boxes back, and I don't like to use these. It's useless to leave me here, why don't you use them."
Zhao Ning happily accepted Zhong Ziqi's nonsense.
When Zhao Zhengan came back in the evening, he was quite surprised to see Uncle Huang’s son in the store. He always heard Ama Huang and Uncle Huang talking about how wonderful his son was, but he had never seen him. Zhong Ziqi forgot yesterday because he was happy. Liao told him that the two of them were stunned when they met each other today.
Fortunately, through Huang Ah's introduction, the two gradually got to know each other.
Zhao Zheng'an is a self-acquaintance with excellent communication skills. He could get along like a fish in water on the pier at that time, not to mention Huang Jinlei. Within half a day, he got acquainted with the somewhat taciturn Huang Jinlei and began to call him brothers.
"Brother Lei is a nice person, bright and aboveboard, although he doesn't talk much, but we have very similar personalities." Zhao Zhengan commented on Huang Jinlei.
"Yeah, but you're not the only one who thinks it's good."
"how do I say this?"
Zhong Ziqi said with a smirk: "I can always find Zhao Ahma secretly observing Brother Lei these days. I guess, Zhao Ahma wants to get married with Huang Ahma!"
"That's a good thing. Brother Lei is a nice guy. He knows everything. It's good for the two families to get married." Zhao Zheng'an said.
Zhong Ziqi said: "I think so too, but it hasn't been settled yet, and we don't want to meddle in other people's affairs."
"Um."
Zhao Zheng'an paused, then turned around and asked, "Have you thought about how to use the money? Should I buy land at Baoshantou, or open a restaurant to continue doing business?"
Zhong Ziqi was stunned by the question. He had thought about this question before. It would be nice to be a landlord, as long as the land is rented out and the money is collected every year.
However, opening a restaurant is a fast-growing industry, but it is also a very troublesome industry.
It was also difficult for him to choose for a while, so he had to throw the question to Zhao Zhengan.
Without even thinking about it, Zhao Zhengan opened his mouth and said, "Choose both!"
Zhong Ziqi was speechless: "Just talking about restaurants, it's not sure if you have enough to buy them. Even if you have enough, plus the later expenses, how can you still have the money to buy land?"
Zhao Zheng'an smiled: "When we open the restaurant, won't we have money!" With Zhong Ziqi's craftsmanship, do you still worry about not being able to earn money back
Although Zhong Ziqi thought it made sense, she finally shook her head after thinking about it: "Let me think about it again."
It is not easy for them to open a restaurant. After all, Jinhua is still there. With his craftsmanship, he believes that he can steal half of the customers, but doing so is too...
It's too dishonest for someone to help him so much before, but now he's turning around to snatch the business. He'd better plan it carefully and come up with a perfect plan.
"Okay, think about it carefully, don't be in a hurry. Let me tell you one more thing."
"What's up?"
"Our grandfather and the others are coming."
"Ah? When?" Zhong Ziqi opened his mouth. Could it be that he is coming now
"It's too cold at the beginning of spring, my uncle stopped it." Zhao Zheng'an said.
"That's good."
Zhong Ziqi breathed a sigh of relief, if this came, what if he didn't take care of her well in the winter
There is a big difference in climate between the north and the south. In case of a disease, where can he find a doctor? The doctors in their small towns are all ordinary. What can I do if something happens!
"The main reason is that grandpa is depressed. Ever since he found out that Ah Mu passed away, he has been depressed all day long, feeling guilty and blaming himself. If it weren't for the fear that the winter would be too cold, the whole family would have wished to come here sooner! The doctor said that the knot was incomprehensible, and his fate was not good. Long." Zhao Zhengan sighed as he spoke.
"What should I do? In fact, my mother has never blamed him. Although I don't often mention my family, I also said that my grandfather is a serious but responsible and good grandfather. He has a deep love for his grandmother and has never changed his mind to marry a concubine. It can be seen how grandpa's character is."
Zhong Ziqi thought of the original Emu in his memory, and when he mentioned his father who forced him, there was no complaint on his face, only deep thoughts.
"I can't help it. I can only hope that the old man will think about it." Zhao Zhengan shook his head and said.
