Mrs. Zhang was full of joy and nodded like pounding garlic: "Madam is really a Bodhisattva's heart!"

Li's mother asked someone to take Xiuzhi, who changed her name to Puyu, and retreated.

Pu Yu greeted Zhang Pozi with a smile: "You must remember to water my peppers and come to see me often!"

A trace of sadness flashed in Mrs. Zhang's eyes, and she nodded heavily.

What happened next was a bit unreasonable.

Several girls answered Li's questions in a manner and were basically very eloquent. Three out of the six were better. One was the first to stand out, named Geng Xianglian. He just turned ten this year and didn't know how to read, but he could plan and speak concisely and clearly organized. The other was Lu Jinzhi, who was nine years old this year. When answering Li's questions, he took the opportunity to promote himself and said he could go to the stove. Another one was like Geng Xianglian, who was also ten years old. At a young age, he had a face like peach blossoms and a crescent eyebrows. He had a very outstanding appearance. When asked about his name, he said he was Tao Hui.

When Li asked, Aunt Chen looked at the one named Geng Xianglian from time to time.

After Li finished asking, Mother Wang pointed to Geng Xianglian and smiled and said, "Madam, you said it was a coincidence that he actually had the same name as the maid who was released from the aunt's house."

Li smiled faintly and said, "Well. This child is really good. I will take him down and adjust him well. If you can, please stay and take him to the girl's house to serve him. If you can't, please find Mrs. Zhang to take him away."

When the girls heard this, their expressions immediately became nervous.

Mother Wang glanced at Aunt Chen.

Aunt Chen lowered her eyelids and could not see any expression.

Li asked Mother Wang and Whore Zhang to deliver the money, while Mother Li took a few newly bought little girls and returned.

Zhang's face smiled like a flower, and he and Mother Wang decided on the big three or five cents of silver and the small five cents of silver, and made the sale. She took the silver and went to Li's house to say goodbye. Li rewarded her with one or two taels of silver and a piece of moon-white silk. Zhang's wife happily took it, thanked her and thanked her again and then said goodbye, and took a few little girls who were not selected and left.

The morning passed like this. Shen Muqing accompanied Li to have lunch, and Mother Wang came in and reported, "Madam, Fuyuan sent eels and oranges." As he said that, he turned around and blinked at Shen Muqing, "The eels are still raised in wooden barrels and jump around. Do you want to go and see them?"

Shen Muqing nodded invisible and smiled, "Is the eel? I haven't seen a living eel yet!"

Seeing her excited look, Li smiled and said, "Go! Go! Remember to come back earlier and you will go to Cai's wife's place later."

Shen Muqing responded with a smile and went out with Mother Wang.

When she walked to the hall, Mother Wang whispered: "Mr. Liu is here - the girl's foot, you have to take a look early." There was a strong apology in her voice.

Shen Muqing looked at Mom Wang with gratitude.

The two returned to Anyuan from the intersecting road outside Chaoxi Hall, and Mr. Liu had already been waiting in the caravan.

Mother Wang took the breeze and spread it out.

Mr. Liu smelled it, picked a little and put it in his mouth to taste it. He couldn't help but shout: "Who prescribed this? This is not a bad injury. What realgar, musk... use my homemade red jade paste!"

Luo Mei and a few hurriedly fetched water to clean Shen Mu's feet, put on the red jade paste made by Mr. Liu, and sent Shen Muqing back to Li's place.

Chen Muqing learned to make rice cakes with Jincai's wife in the afternoon, and used the dough, rabbit and ponytail to squeeze a steamer full of rice cakes. As a result, at dinner, the maids, daughters-in-law and mother-in-law in Chaoxitang all ate rice cakes.

When he returned to the house at night, Chen Muqing looked at his feet first, but it seemed that there was no obvious effect. Thinking that the effect of Chinese medicine was slow, Chen Muqing had to endure the pain and wait patiently.

The little maid came in and put on the lamp. She leaned barefoot on the big pillow and used the light on the kang to embroider the handkerchief for Princess Zhen'an. Just after embroidering a few needles, Chen Yuerong came and brought her needlework. The two of them talked and laughed and did needlework. Seeing that the night was getting dark, Chen Yuerong returned to Xiangpu Garden.

After two days like this, General Manager Chen came to reply to Chen Muqing, saying that his letters from both the greetings and Shen Zhen had been delivered to the Xiangfa silk shop in Wuyiku Hutong in Jinchengfang. The two masters Chang and Sun had also gone to worship.

"Do you know who the owner of the Xiangfa silk store is?" Chen Muqing thought for a long time, but couldn't help but ask.

Manager Wang smiled meaningfully and said, "It is from the Xiao family in Lincheng, Shanxi. But that shop belongs to Lord Ye Suye."

Chen Muqing was slightly surprised.

Wuyiku Hutong in Jinchengfang is a place that specializes in stocking up war robes and armor for the Ministry of War. As the minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Ye Su rented the shop to the Xiao family to open a silk cloth shop there. It is no wonder that even Manager Wang couldn't help but reveal a few strange colors on his face.

"You sent the prayer post, didn't you react there?"

"It was taken by the shopkeeper and rewarded the servant with five taels of silver each. He also said that he would come to visit the master in two days."

Is Xiao Sa coming here?

The handsome but arrogant face flashed through Chen Muqing's mind.

What kind of expression will you look like when you come to pay homage to Chen Zhen? Is it a respectful look but proud look? Is it a sharp look and flying freely? Or, it is generous and not humble or arrogant...

She thought it was interesting.

However, it was really strange, why didn't I expect him to be nervous and shy...

Chen Muqing stretched out his elbow and pinched his jaw, suddenly looking forward to Xiao Sa's arrival.

"Girl, do you want to tell the doorman?" General Manager Wang peeked at Chen Muqing's expression, "and not to neglect others."

"No!" Chen Muqing smiled at the corner of his eyes, "This person has many ways. Don't worry." As he said that, he remembered Chang and Master Sun, his eyes darkened again, "How did Master Chang and Master Sun arrange it?"

"Master Chang has a high hall and a wife and children. The bureau bought twenty acres of land, a horse and a big cart in his hometown, and gave him a hundred taels of silver to pursue him. Master Sun's parents died early and did not get married, so they all turned into silver. He gave him a nephew of his family and gave him a tomb and monument to build a monument and worship incense." General Manager Wang said, and was a little slutty.

Chen Muqing pondered: "Do you know where Master Chang's hometown is?"

"It's in Cangzhou, not far from this."

"Does there any brothers in his family who can help him?"

"I said that there was a brother in my early years who had a quarrel with his parents and ran away from home. There was no news for almost twenty years."

In other words, the old ones, the small ones, twenty acres of land, facing the loess and the sky, and the weather is good enough to avoid the strength of the whole family living a year of one hundred taels of silver, and there is no gain in...

"Do you know when they will return to Cangzhou?"

"I said that after Master Chang's Qiqi finished, he would go back."

Chen Muqing sighed: "Before Master Chang's wife go back, come and say goodbye to me!"

Manager Wang nodded straight and said, "Do you want me to tell the master and give the girl some money from the tent in the outer courtyard?"

"You see, you can pay as much as you can!" Money is not as good as life. Although Chen Muqing has private money in his hand, she will not be polite at all when filling holes.

*******

Xiao Sa came two days later.

That day was Chen Zhen's holiday. Their family had just finished breakfast. Chen Zhen and Li sat on the parquet bed next to the window in the west. Chen Yuerong and Shen Muqing sat on a small mattress next to the bed, Aunt Chen and Wang's mother, and Tian's mother stood by the side with their hands hanging down, looking at Dashe standing in the middle of the house, shaking their heads and carrying the "Three Character Classic" on their backs.

"No, not bad." Boss Chen Zhen comforted and looked at Tian's mother with a smile, "You are taking good care of you!"

This mother Tian was originally the tits sister of Aunt Chen. She grew up with Aunt Chen and was as close as a sister. Her own child died just a month after giving birth. She was also in harmony with her husband's family for this matter, so she went to the Shen family to be a wetits wife. After hearing what Chen Zhen said, her eyes rolled slightly, she bowed her knees and smiled, "The master praised me. Speaking of which, this is all the credit of the aunt - she teaches her brother to recognize a word every night..."

Aunt Chen knelt down with a panic look: "Master, I have no other intentions, so I just teach you how to play first. I didn't expect that Brother She has a good memory and can learn it once. When I see him, I... didn't have the intention to be more presumptuous..." While saying that, he peeked at Chen Zhen's expression.

Li frowned almost invisibly, Zhan Yan smiled and said, "Look at you, the master has no intention of blame." As he said that, he smiled and looked at Chen Zhen and said, "To be honest, I was wrong. I didn't expect that Brother She had such intelligence and could study at a young age. However, enlightenment of children is a big deal, and it is not enough to recognize a few words. He also has to learn the principles of being a person and doing things. Otherwise, I was also a private school person who has been in a private school for more than ten years. When Jijie was young, he didn't dare to teach a single word."

Chen Zhen nodded and said to Aunt Chen: "Get up."

Aunt Chen responded quietly, "Yes" and stood up with some fear.

Chen Zhen discussed Li: "I think, since the big house has this talent, it is better to have a New Year's Day, and invite a gentleman to attend the school at home and let Brother She enter school early."

Li smiled and said, "It's great that the master decides like this. As the saying goes, teach according to his aptitude. Judging from Brother She's momentum, our family is probably going to be a Jinshi again." After that, he looked at Dashe and laughed, "Brother She, do you think so!"

Children are the most sensitive.

He looked at Aunt Chen who was drooping her eyelids and lowered her head, and then at Li, who was smiling, and was ill and didn't say a word for a long time.

Chen Zhen couldn't help but tease: "I hope I don't just read a book."

Li smiled and said, "He is still young and has no certainty. Who should I follow him and who should I learn from him. If you find a gentleman for him, you will naturally become a talent."

As he was talking, a servant came in and told him: "Ye Su and Xiao Sa asked to see the master."

Chen Zhen was very confused, and he still heard Chen Muqing say "ah" and then he remembered who Xiao Sa was.

He said "Oh" and first ordered Ouyang Hui to see Xiao Sa--Ouyang Hui was a staff member who had been with Chen Zhen for nearly 30 years.

Chen Zhen would not see Xiao Sa at all...

Chen Muqing was a little ashamed.

She always forgets Chen Zhen’s identity...

The servant left, Chen Zhen turned around, and when the corner of his eyes swept across Chen Muqing, he changed his mind again: "Please sit in the flower hall."
