The days go by slowly, and once the Lantern Festival is over, it will be busy again.
The liquor store has been re-staffed to deal with more and more buyers, and the pharmacy that was to be expanded has also become lively.
Not only to open up the courtyard, but also to make arrangements on the front facade. The medicine cabinets and medicine boxes that have been made before have to be moved.
Each medicinal material is precious, and each has its own habit. It is not easy to make or preserve it, so it takes a lot of effort to arrange the interior.
Since Qi Yun decided to expand the pharmacy, he naturally wouldn't do it hastily. He hired someone to control every detail. Fang Li, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy, was like the manager of Song, and he came to Qi's house almost every day to see him. See Qi Yun and report on the progress.
Just after breakfast today, Tie Zi said, "Treasurer Fang is already waiting for the young master in the study."
Qi Yun was holding a dish for Ye Jiao, when he heard the words, he said lightly: "Let him sit down, I'll go in a while, so that people remember to serve tea."
"Yes, sir."
Ye Jiao waited for Tie Zi to leave before tugging at Qi Yun's cuff and said, "Why does he always come to you so early?"
Ye Jiao usually doesn't care about Qi Yun's business affairs. First, she doesn't know anything about it. Second, Ye Jiao has complete trust in Qi Yun. She always feels that her husband can do everything well, and she It's no use worrying, it's better to live your own comfortable life.
But this shopkeeper always came to Qi Yun early in the morning, often when Qi Yun had not finished his meal, others came.
Ye Jiao was very concerned about Qi Yun's body, and she always stared at him for breakfast.
It's just that it evolved into Qi Yun serving her vegetables, and Ye Jiao agreed to accompany Qi Yun, but now it's Qi Yun who accompanies her.
Of course, the two of them are enjoying it, one is not eating enough, the other is not watching enough, but they can be regarded as harmonious.
Now that Fang Li came back, Ye Jiao couldn't say she was dissatisfied, but she was a little worried that it would disturb Qi Yun's breakfast.
Qi Yun added chopsticks and tender bamboo shoots to her, with a gentle voice: "Fang Li is different from Steward Song, Steward Song is old, very shrewd, and he knows what to do. He has always been clear about when to do things, but Fang Li is younger and more rigid, so he knows less about the world."
Ye Jiao and Fang Li also met several times. He was a thin and gentle man, wearing a long gown. He didn't look like a businessman, but he had a bookish air.
Looking at Fang Li's appearance, he knew that he was an upright temperament that would not bend, and it complemented Dong's passionate temperament.
But Ye Jiao was a little curious: "Xiang Gong, you can talk to him, it's okay to change it."
The corners of Qi Yun's mouth were slightly raised, and his voice was gentle: "It's easy to change, as long as I don't go now, it's fine to let him hang for a long time, but he is in charge of the pharmacy, and now is busy time and can't be delayed, and his temper I also don't plan to let him change, it's not a big deal to understand the world, what I want is this kind of upright and unyielding temperament, the drugstore is in charge of people's life and death, and he can't be sloppy, so he is good."
Qi Yun always made things clear to Ye Jiao, and Ye Jiao could understand it, so she stopped talking, but turned to peel a hard-boiled egg for Qi Yun and said, "Xiang Gong, let's eat it for you. ."
Seeing Ye Jiao taking care of herself, Qi Yun's brows and eyes were gentle, and she used the tip of her chopsticks to cut the boiled egg in half.
There was a pagoda dish on top of the egg yolk. The man picked up the egg and asked, "Why do you think of peeling the egg for me?" The most impatient thing for Ye Jiao is peeling the egg shell, which is often done by Qi Yun. .
Ye Jiao smiled and watched him put the egg in her mouth, and replied softly: "Xiang Gong, you said that boiled egg whites are the most nutritious, you worked hard last night, so naturally you need to make up for it. "
Qi Yun: …
As soon as these words came out, Qi Yun suddenly felt that the mouth was unable to go up and down, so after swallowing it, he coughed several times, and after drinking a sip of tea, it was considered to be suppressed.
After finally calming down, Qi Yun met Ye Jiao's surprised eyes, and he said helplessly: "Jiao Niang, tell me before you say this in the future."
Little Ginseng didn't find it strange. Originally, Qi Yun had a lot of things to do recently. Yesterday, he finally took a long break. Ye Jiao saw that his clothes were open after bathing. It's all torn up, and it's just right that my husband is tired.
But since Qi Yun said she couldn't say it casually, she obediently wrote it down, but still urged Qi Yun to eat the remaining half of the boiled egg.
After eating breakfast, Qi Yun was about to go out, but Ye Jiao stood on tiptoe and pecked his cheek, then stood at the door and watched Qi Yun leave, counting the time in her heart, she put on a cape and hugged the flowerpot. followed out.
Although Qi Yun has not shown the high fever after nourishing too much, Ye Jiao is still cautious.
In the past, during the day, Ye Jiao either went to Liu's house or stayed in the wing to practice calligraphy and read, but now she goes to the garden from time to time, just to see Qi Yun in the study from a distance. , I was afraid that I would not be there when my husband suddenly had an accident.
She didn't go in because she was afraid that it would affect Qi Yun's work, but Ye Jiao wouldn't be too far away. She often followed Qi Yun with Shi Yacao in her arms, basking in the sun while guarding Shi Yacao. With his own husband.
Qi Yun didn't know about this. If he hadn't remembered today that the account book had been left in the room and didn't take it out, he would have lived on without knowing anything about it.
Ye Jiao didn't expect Qi Yun to come and go, one of them was standing in the corridor outside the study, the other was standing in the garden, and suddenly there was no sound when they looked at each other.
Qi Yun opened his mouth and asked slowly, "Jiao Niang, why did you come out so early?"
Ye Jiao blinked and replied softly, "I'm a little worried, so I'll come and see you."
Qi Yun actually didn't know why Ye Jiao was so nervous all of a sudden, but seeing her wife's concern for her, everyone felt sympathetic.
He walked over and put his hand stove in Ye Jiao's hand, with a smile in his voice: "I'll be fine, you don't need to worry, it's better than this, I'll go to the small room in our yard, this study, when I talk about things. Come back when the weather warms up, okay?"
The ordinary small room was used to receive guests. The reason why Qi Yun moved to the study was for fear of disturbing Ye Jiao's tranquility during the day, and now he moved back to fulfill his wife's concern for him.
Ye Jiao was naturally happy, she nodded to him, but put the stove back in Qi Yun's hand: "Xianggong, take it, I'm not afraid of the cold."
Qi Yun did not refuse and took it back.
At this time, a child's crisp laughter came from a distance.
Ye Jiao turned around and saw Mrs Fang strolling in the garden holding a stone.
Although Xiao Shishi was young, her eyes were sharp. Ye Jiao was wearing a red cloak, which made her look recognizable. He clapped his hands and shouted, "Second Aunt!"
Ye Jiao had a smile on her face when she heard this.
Putting Shi Yacao down, Ye Jiao walked over and touched Xiao Shi Shi's face: "Stone is really good." Then she greeted Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang also smiled and nodded.
Shitou hadn't seen Ye Jiao very much recently, but now that she saw that she was naturally sticky, he stretched out his hand and said to Ye Jiao, "Second aunt hugs!"
Ye Jiao glanced at Mrs. Fang and saw Mrs. Fang handing over the small stone with a calm expression, Ye Jiao did not refuse, she directly pulled the little guy into the cloak and teased him: "Why did you think of the stone and let my aunt hold it? "
Xiao Shishi raised his face and said, "It's cold outside, Aunt Er is warm and fragrant."
As soon as these words came out, Qi Yun's face darkened, and he immediately wanted to lift him from his wife's arms and put it back to Mrs. Fang.
But Ye Jiao turned her back to Qi Yun and couldn't see the change in his expression. Hearing that, she hugged the stone even tighter and said with a smile, "Good boy, this place is near my yard, and the meat ravioli is still hot, let's go eat it. Let's go." Ye Jiao raised her head and looked at Mrs Fang.
It just so happened that Mrs. Fang had just come out of Mrs. Liu's place, and there was nothing to do right now, so she smiled and said, "Then I will disturb the younger brother and sister, Shito, thank you auntie quickly."
The stone said crisply: "Thank you Second Aunt!"
"Stone is so nice."
Ye Jiao asked Xiao Su to follow her with Shi Yacao, while she smiled at Qi Yun and left with the stone.
Qi Yun stood in the corridor with a light expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xiao Su has seen Qi Yun's expression more than ever since she followed Ye Jiao. For fear that she would be an eyesore here, she carefully picked up Shi Ya Cao and followed Ye Jiao, not daring to delay.
That night, Xiao Shishi received a copy of the "Three Character Classic" sent by Qi Erlang, which surprised Fang.
Qi Zhao was so happy: "Second brother is really caring, our stone is getting bigger and bigger, and we can teach him to read and endorse when he is two years old. Nowadays, it is still popular among scholars, and we can't let the stone fall."
Fang Shi was originally a talented daughter, so naturally, reading and literacy was bigger than the sky.
Originally, she was worried that Qi Zhao would not be willing to let the child suffer from endorsement so early, but now seeing Qi Zhao's agreement, Mrs. Fang also smiled: "I'll just come here for enlightenment, our stone will definitely be the material for the champion in the future. "
Qi Zhao is also very confident. After all, Shi Shi is his only son at present. Who can not hope that his son will become a dragon
And Little Stone, who was lying on the bed and biting his hands, looked at his parents and showed a pure and bright smile.
