Carefree Scholar

Chapter 111: Mr. Li?

Views:

At this time, in a certain garden in the inner courtyard of the mansion, several young women gathered together, whispering in low voices.

"The Ruyilu, is it really so miraculous?" The woman surnamed Chen told them what happened last night, and a woman beside her asked in disbelief.

A woman on the opposite side also said: "I'm afraid Yu Ning is exaggerating. Since autumn, mosquitoes have been rampant, and we have tried various methods. Why have we never heard of this 'Ruyilu'?"

For women, after autumn, the rampant mosquitoes are indeed a troublesome thing. Several close friends in the boudoir were talking just now, and the woman named Chen Yuning talked about a kind of "Ruyi" Lu" aroused their curiosity.

"Is that thing really as good as the shopkeeper said?" The woman who went to the street with the woman surnamed Chen yesterday looked at her in surprise and asked.

"Whether it's useful or not, you'll find out if you try it." Chen Yuning didn't explain too much, turned her head to look, and said a little strangely: "What's wrong with Xiu'er today, she hasn't come back after being away for so long?"

Just as she was thinking curiously in her heart, the figure of the close-fitting little maid finally appeared in her sight.

Seeing the little maid walking over empty-handed, a look of doubt appeared on her face, and she asked, "What about the things I asked you to buy?"

The little maid said innocently with a bitter face: "Miss, when I found the 'Ruyifang', the shopkeeper said that the Ruyilu has been sold out... However, I have already told them that they will keep it tomorrow. The Ruyilu we want, Xiu'er will go get it when the time comes."

The woman surnamed Chen looked at her suspiciously, and asked, "How could it be sold out so early? To be honest, did you just lazily go shopping in the street again?"

She was immediately exposed by the young lady, and the little girl couldn't help but feel a little guilty, so she hurriedly changed the subject and said, "By the way, young lady, I went to that wishful workshop today and found out something."

"whats the matter?"

This trick of the little maid really worked, the woman surnamed Chen was aroused by her curiosity, and asked with some doubts.

The women around were obviously also interested in this, and they all looked at the little maid.

Thinking of that incident, the little maid was still a little surprised, and said, "The shopkeeper of Ruyifang seems to be Mr. Li..."

"Mr. Li, which Mr. Li?"

When she said this, the woman surnamed Chen became even more curious.

"Young Master Li?"

"The shopkeeper of Ruyifang?"

"what is going on?"

The reactions of the women around seemed to be stronger than hers, with gossiping expressions on their faces, "Mr. Li... Could it be that our Miss Chen family has finally moved Fanxin?"

Hearing the nonsense of several people, the woman surnamed Chen glared at them, then looked at the little girl and asked, "Shouldn't you be beaten up if you talk around the bush? Tell me, Mr. Li, what's going on?"

Hearing this, the little girl said aggrievedly: "It was Mr. Li who Miss asked me to invite me to the banquet at the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting that day, Miss, have you forgotten?"

The belly row in my heart, the young lady is really ruthless, she obviously liked Mr. Li very much that day, how long has passed, and I don't even remember what his parents look like...

"Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival, going to the banquet?" The woman surnamed Chen was stunned for a moment, and then she seemed to remember something, and asked with some surprise: "You mean that Mr. Li?"

At the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting, she sent Xiu'er to invite only one talented person, so naturally she remembered it quickly.

Could it be that the handsome young man she met yesterday was Li Yi from "Magpie Bridge Immortal" and "Shui Tiao Ge Tou"

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, although she was shocked by the other party's talent, she did not see the other party's appearance. She just heard from people around him that Mr. Li was both talented and beautiful. Few talented people in Qing'an Prefecture could compare, and she still regretted that she had never seen him before. His true face, but he did not expect that yesterday in that wishful workshop, he met Mr. Li and did not know each other...

"What Mr. Li?"

"Who is Mr. Li?"

"Yeah, hurry up and talk about it, don't be tricky!"

Seeing the expression on Chen Yuning's face, the doubts in the surrounding women's hearts deepened, and they felt uncomfortable, and asked questions one after another.

"That's Mr. Li Yi and Mr. Li from "Water Tune Getou"..." The little maid looked at the few people and said with some doubts.

But I was curious in my heart, what happened to them, they kept talking about Mr. Li a few days ago, and read his poems all day long, why do they all seem to be suffering from amnesia now

It seems that the ladies of these rich families are all ruthless people...

Thinking this way in her heart, when she looked at the young ladies again, the little maid couldn't help being startled, and was scared back a few steps by the light in their eyes.

Next door to Ruyifang, the owner of the cloth shop walked out of the shop slowly, and glanced at the opposite shop.

In the past two days, he has done this action countless times.

At some point, the door that had been closed for a whole day opened.

To say that the shop opposite is really strange, it was only opened the day before yesterday, and it was opened for half an hour yesterday, and the shopkeeper has never been seen since then.

Is it because the business is not good and you gave up

The more the fat shopkeeper thought about it, the more likely it was. The shopkeeper looked more like a scholar than a businessman. He opened the shop, but he didn't see any shouting. The customers didn't even know what was sold there, so how could they get business

The rent of this shop is probably one or two taels of silver a day, and no business means a loss. He wants to see how long this shop can last.

When the shop really can't continue, he can talk to the scholar, maybe he can sublet it at a low price, and then the cloth shop can expand and expand, and the business will be better...

If the business gets better, you can consider opening a few more shops and recruiting a few buddies, and you can just retreat behind the scenes and count the money. If you can become the largest cloth merchant in Qing'an Fucheng within your lifetime, I'm afraid it will be nothing in this lifetime. sorry.

Not far away, more than a dozen women walked together in this direction.

The fat shopkeeper saw clearly that these women were coming from the direction of the cloth shop, and a smile appeared on his face immediately.

There were so many customers coming to the door early in the morning, and the business of the cloth shop is booming. Tomorrow, I will talk to the scholar, if he is willing to transfer the shop, the price can be negotiated...

In this way, he is one step closer to his dream.

Thinking of this, the smile on the fat shopkeeper's face became even brighter.
