Master Bai, who was checking the account books, was flipping his fingers on the abacus, and suddenly stopped: "A sneeze... a sneeze... a sneeze..."
"Old Bai, have you caught the cold? I have medicine here!" Qin Mo took out a few packets of Banlangen granules from his sleeve pocket.
"What disease does your medicine treat? You can't take medicines together..." Bai Shen pushed several medicine packets aside with a look of disgust, "Besides, my nose is just itchy, maybe my mother misses me...
…”
"Princess... no... the queen said that if you sneeze once, someone is thinking about you, if you sneeze twice, someone is scolding you, and if you sneeze three times, you must be infected with the cold." Qin Mo quickly brewed a cup of isatis root and put it on Baishen.
In front of me, "This medicine really cures wind and cold. I contracted wind and cold not long ago, so I went to a medicine hall to get it."
It's just that my health is very good. Before I even had time to take the medicine I bought, I was cured...
Bai Shen picked up the tea cup doubtfully, and the bitter taste of the herbs was very faint. Bai Shen didn't feel that he was sick and was about to put it down.
Qin Mo held his chin with one hand and pressed the cup with the other, and drank the entire cup of medicine in an instant...
"Ahem..." Bai Shen was so hot from the concoction that he convulsed and beat his chest before saying, "Do you want to burn me to death and then inherit my family business?"
"It's not my turn to inherit the family business..." Qin Mo was very self-aware, "I just want to advance next month's monthly payment."
"What do you want the money for? To support a foreign wife?" Bai Shen looked at Qin Mo with some suspicion. This idiot wants to feed one person and the whole family is not hungry. He has always squandered money when he has money, and is lazy when he has no money. Why did he think of making an advance?
Monthly payment?
"I don't even have an 'inner room', so I have to keep an outer room!" Qin Mo directly picked a big silver ingot from the pile of silver ingots at Bai Shen's hand, put it in his arms and walked out, "Eat mine.
The medicine is still taking its toll..."
"That's fifty taels. If you want to pay, you can only pay twenty taels!" Bai Shen aimed at the back of Qin Mo's head and threw out an account book.
"Then even next month's payment will be paid!" Qin Mo tilted his head, and the account book hit the door frame with a bang, "Old Bai, you used so much force to knock my head off."
, inherit my debt?”
"For the next three months, you don't have to collect your monthly payment!" Bai Shen wrote it down directly in his notebook.
"That's still ten taels less than me!" Qin Mo's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
"There is a handling fee for monthly advance payments." Bai Shen buried his head in settling the accounts without even raising his eyelids.
"You..." Qin Mo gritted his teeth and spat out three words, "Big! Traitor! Shang!"
"This is not the first day you have met this profiteer..." Bai Shen set the abacus.
"Hmph!" After getting the money, Qin Mo still had things to do, so he didn't bother with the profiteers anymore. Anyway, he had plenty of ways to get the ten taels of silver out of Bai Shen's hand.
Qin Mo weighed the money in his hand, and first went to Jian Mingxuan to pack twenty eight-treasure gourd chickens and two full food boxes of glutinous rice balls, and then went to the shop to pick up the bedding he had made before.
The short and fat shopkeeper ordered the bedding sets and checked them with Qin Mo before asking the waiter to pack them: "After paying the deposit, you have to pay another twelve taels."
Qin Mo threw the money to the shopkeeper: "I bought so many beddings, should I send a car to deliver them to the place?"
"Sir, although you bought a lot, you kept the price so low that I didn't make any profit at all." The short and fat shopkeeper said bitterly, "If I hire a car for you again, I will really lose money..."
Qin Mo was not Bai Shen. His head hurt when he heard about the bargaining. He took out a token from his sleeve pocket and waved it in front of the shopkeeper.
"Huh? It turns out he's one of our own!" The short and fat shopkeeper immediately called the boy. Not only did he send a truck to deliver the goods, but he also packed a pack of cloth heads for extra hair. "Although these cloth heads are not made of good material, they are strong and durable. Even if they are not made,
It’s also useful for clothes, bedding and luggage.”
"Thanks then." Qin Mo tilted the carriage, pointed the direction to the driver, and the carriage headed south of the city.
When Mingruo and his party walked to Ruyizhai, Mingruo and Xiaotuanzi already had several kinds of food in their hands. Shi Shi squeezed into the store and bought a few pieces of freshly baked plum blossom cakes.
Si Haochen saw that Mingruo's hands were not enough, so he took the plum blossom cake and blew it before passing it to his wife's lips.
Mingruo took a bite of Si Haochen's. It was sweet, soft and had a slight floral aroma. It was really good: "It's delicious. You should try it too."
"You eat first." Si Haochen's enthusiasm for sweets is limited.
"Oh." Mingruo took another bite of the plum blossom cake in Si Haochen's hand, "Let's find a place to sit down and take a rest."
"There is a stall selling glutinous rice dumplings and wontons over there." Yan Zhaobai pointed across the street.
"Then let's eat the glutinous rice dumplings." Mingruo stuffed the food in her husband's hand, then led the little dumplings to the stall.
I saw Si Haochen holding a plum blossom cake in his right hand, a candy figure in his left hand, and a bunch of boiled water chestnuts and a pack of fried fruits hanging on his wrist...
This pile of snacks did not match the image of His Majesty Yun Huang. Shi Fifteen suppressed a smile and picked off the water chestnuts and nuts from his master's wrist: "These subordinates will hold them for you first."
"Yeah." Si Haochen took the candy and plum blossom cakes and went after his wife.
Yan Yuan saw that His Majesty Yun Huang was so happy for his precious daughter, and finally had the consciousness of being a lamp. He walked slowly and leisurely at the end, just keeping his daughter in his sight.
Mingruo sat down on the bench with the dumplings and ordered a few bowls of dumplings and wontons. When the dumplings came, he ate the fennel beans from the paper bag Xuan'er was holding.
Xiaotuanzi was also eating beans and looking around at the stalls selling lanterns. He still remembered to buy the best lanterns for Uncle Seven.
Xiaotuanzi glanced at the alley opposite, and his pupils immediately tightened: he saw a well-dressed young man standing at the entrance of the alley, seemingly waiting for someone. Suddenly, someone covered his mouth with a handkerchief, and he was carried as soon as his body went limp.
Got up and went deeper into the alley...
Xiaotuanzi was often warned by Eunuch Ke when he was in the villa. He was not allowed to go out alone. There were people taking pictures outside. As soon as the handkerchief was covered, the person would be taken away.
But hearing about it and seeing it with your own eyes are completely different things. Although Xiaotuanzi is more mature than other children, he was also frightened. He tugged on Mingruo's sleeve: "Sister-in-law... I saw... the one who took pictures of Hanako...
…”
"Huh?" Mingruo reacted and then realized, "Did a child get poisoned?"
Xiaotuanzi shook his head: "He is a little brother of fifteen or sixteen years old."
Mingruo was a little suspicious. In Shenhua Continent, fifteen or sixteen years old is already considered an adult. Human traffickers should abduct children as young as possible: "Are you sure Xuan'er is a flower girl?"
"Hmm." The little dumpling made the shape of a chicken pecking at rice.
Mingruo hated human traffickers deeply and decided to let Chu Yi go take a look. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Huangfu Ye holding a few plum blossom cakes with oil paper, walking to the entrance of the alley, and looking around...
