Su Yan didn't have any impression of the Qi family. It could be said that she had never met her in person. "Which Qi family?"
"You probably don't know him, but your husband-in-law knows him. He is the one who ranks first in homework every time in the academy. He always looks aloof. I went home and asked my husband-in-law."
"It is said that the master of the academy had a book in his hand. It was quite difficult to buy. It was an authentic work by Mr. Su from the capital. In the end, it was given to your husband."
"Those people in the academy are not convinced, but some people don't dare to offend you. The Qi family is different. Their business is not very good. In the past, they relied on the reputation of the academy to gain a foothold in the county."
"Your husband-in-law studies desperately, it's strange that the Qi family can tolerate it."
Hearing her say that she would study without risking her life, Su Yan paused, glanced in the direction of the kitchen, and said softly: "Why do you say that you will study without risking your life?"
Ren Li was stunned. Seeing her like this, he knew that she didn't know. She didn't know why she suddenly felt envious of her as a widow.
Although she was a widow remarrying, her husband-in-law was really kind to her.
"I also heard what my husband-in-law said. He said that he rarely left his seat when he was resting. My wife even asked him to take a rest, but he didn't take any rest either."
In fact, even if she didn't say it, Su Yan also knew how hard Qin An studied in the academy. Even if he was very talented in studying, it would be useless if he didn't work hard.
Furthermore, Qin An has only been studying for a year or two. Compared with those who have been studying for more than ten years, Qin An just put more thought into it.
"What kind of business does the Qi family do?"
As soon as Ren Li heard what she said, she knew that she would most likely attack the Qi family's business, but the Qi family's business had nothing to do with food.
"He sells balm. The business is not bad but not bad. It's Nanxiangyuan."
Su Yan nodded to show that she understood, "Can you please come over? Do you want to eat the pickled bamboo shoots made at my house? They are quite crispy."
Let Mr. Li eat the delicious food naturally, "I won't be polite to you anymore."
Su Yan got up and went to the kitchen to put two of them out in bowls. "They can be cut into shreds and sliced. They are delicious for stir-frying and can be used as porridge."
"Okay, I'll go home and let the cook cook." Ren Li didn't stay long, got up and went out, taking a look at the yard before leaving.
The Qin family's yard seems to be growing other vegetables.
It turned out that she had also planted some at home.
I have been shopping and talking every day for a long time, and seeing other people makes my life fulfilling.
kitchen
Su Yan came in with the tidy clothes, washed them and put them on the cutting board, "There is a scholar named Qi in your academy?"
Qin An frowned slightly, "I didn't pay much attention."
No one in the academy would talk to him, and few would provoke him.
Because I'm afraid he'll hit someone.
"The Ren family said that the matter was investigated and the Qi family was arrested." Su Yan came over and helped him roll up his sleeves.
Qin An frowned, "I'll go see it tomorrow."
Su Yan was afraid that he would beat someone in the academy, "I know this well, you don't care."
How could Qin An ignore it? It's just that he didn't say it out loud. They both had their own plans in mind.
…
The news about the Qi family spread throughout the academy. After the master found out, he gave a stern lecture for a long time. Qi Ming, who used to be so arrogant in the past, didn't say a word now.
Instead, Qin An, who usually said nothing, suddenly stood up and walked in front of Qi Ming. The next moment, he punched Qi Ming directly.
Qi Ming's cheek hurt and he fell to the ground, "What are you doing..."
The other people in the academy were also stunned. Qin An did not take action again, and said with a tense expression: "I don't provoke people, but I'm not afraid either. I can kill a wild boar of one or two hundred kilograms, and I can kill a wild boar of one or two hundred kilograms."
people."
"Don't touch my wife and children. If anyone tries to influence them, your whole family will not survive."
He wasn't joking. If those people came for his wife and children, he would not just give a warning.
He wants them dead.
It's not okay to hit someone in the academy, but he just wanted to let others know not to touch his wife and children, otherwise he wouldn't even think about getting better.
The master came over to take a look and saw that there was a cause and effect to this matter, but he didn't say anything. He just asked Qin An not to hit anyone in the academy.
…
In the afternoon, Su Yan and Cuilan went out shopping with Tuan Tuan in their arms. When they passed by Nanxiang Garden, Su Yan walked in to take a look.
Probably because the business was not going well, the shopkeeper was extra polite and said, "Madam, do you want to buy some ointment?"
"Well, let's buy a few." Su Yan looked at the exquisite little porcelain box and asked, "What's the fragrance?"
"Osmanthus, lotus, peach blossom, peony... Madam, can I ask which one you like?" The shopkeeper took some ointments for her to smell.
After Su Yan smelled them one by one, she said, "I want these. Please wrap them up for me."
"Okay, there are two and a half in total." The shopkeeper wrapped it up for her enthusiastically.
Su Yan paid the money and didn't stay long, then went out with Cuilan who was holding the child.
After that, I walked around for a while and saw that there were still a few shops selling ointments, and the business was pretty much the same. People with a little money just put incense on their clothes.
The flavor is long-lasting and not overpowering.
Finally, we went to the meat shop. Zhang Xiu was stringing copper coins together. When he saw the two of them, he immediately said happily: "Madam."
Then she saw Tuan Tuan smiling, and she teased: "Do you recognize Auntie? I'll hug you when Auntie finishes her work."
Su Yan smiled and walked over to look at the account book, "How busy is the business today?"
"It's very good. I ordered a hundred bowls from the dock. Master Li is tired." Zhang Xiudao.
Su Yan nodded and said, "Then I'll go back early today. How much is left?"
"There are still about ten bowls left," Master Li said politely.
"Master Li, take a few bowls back with you, and we'll take the rest back with you. Have a good rest today."
"It's okay, it's still early, I'll sell it later."
"No, go back."
At Su Yan's insistence, Master Li took three bowls home and left Cuilan to cook.
Su Yan hugged Tuantuan and asked Zhang Xiu softly: "How are Master Li these days?"
"No problem, I've been cooking." Zhang Xiu shook his head.
Hearing this, Su Yan didn't say much. She glanced at the account book and said, "Xiao Xiu, let me teach you how to read. You can take a look at the account book at home."
Zhang Xiu was a little surprised and happy, "Will it be troublesome?"
"It's not troublesome. I'll just teach you a few words a day. Or let Erdan teach you." Su Yan smiled.
"Okay, I want to learn how to read."
Zhang Xiu was a little envious when he saw Erdan learning to write. If he could read, it would be much easier to buy anything in the future.
A few people packed up and went home.
Su Yan had something to do, so she asked Zhang Xiu to do it in the evening while she tossed around the balms in the room.
She didn't know how to make balm, but she knew about perfume. In her previous life, the industry involved a wide range of industries, but many of them were difficult to make money here.
Or invest more and make less money.
Perfume is probably not very profitable, the process is complicated and labor costs are high.
But she is a petty person. If anyone targets her family, she will pay them back if they don't make money.
The Qi family relied on the ointment shop to make a living. Since they dared to pay for murder, she would cut off their wealth.
When Qin An came back, he smelled the strong fragrance filling the room. He frowned a little and walked to his wife, "What are you doing?"
"Make balm."
Su Yan looked up and saw that his brows were furrowed into the Chinese character "Sichuan". It was a bit funny, but he didn't like the smell.
She said: "Let's go change clothes in Erdan's house." After saying that, she stood up and opened the window.
