Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

Xia Bai'an took the medicine for the old man and the two children, and handed an IOU to the old man.

"There is not much money, but I am also a businessman after all. When you find a job in the future, I will return the money for medicinal materials to Tongji Hall. But you are weak, if you die silently somewhere, I am afraid I will lose the money." gone."

As she spoke, she pulled two or three sets of old clothes from behind the counter, threw them into the arms of the two children, and handed over some breakfast that the clerk had just bought.

The two children raised their faces slightly to look at her, but hugged the things in their arms tightly, for fear of being taken away again.

The old man instantly burst into tears.

"A lot, thank you girl... I will definitely be a cow and a horse in the future..."

"Let's go back earlier, my Tongjitang still has business, I'm afraid it's inconvenient to keep you here for a while."

Xia Bai'an pretended to be indifferent again, turned around and asked someone for the account book.

The old man didn't dare to ask more questions, he took the two children and left, muttering: "I really met a living Bodhisattva..."

Beside him, a gorgeously dressed young man passed by the old man, and raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the words "Living Bodhisattva".

The attendant behind him also heard it and snorted coldly.

"Master Sun, look at the old man's ragged appearance, this Tongjitang treats even such a person, isn't this just a loss-making business, why do we have to curry favor with her?"

"The golden plaque is on the top of the head, even if you don't want to curry favor, you have to shake hands and make peace."

The son of the Qin family, Qin Haosheng, cast a cold glance at the attendant behind him, "If you don't know how to speak next time, and you can honestly do odd jobs in the yard in the future, you don't have to follow me."

"The slave is wrong."

The attendant quickly nodded and apologized, not daring to say more.

And Qin Haosheng tidied up his clothes, walked slowly into the Tongji Hall, passed over the common people who came to buy cheap medicinal materials, and walked straight to Xia Bai'an.

"Boss Xia, long time no see." Qin Haosheng raised his voice slightly.

Xia Bai'an turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw Qin Haosheng coming with a few attendants behind him, and each of the attendants was holding large and small bags in their hands.

She closed the account book in her hand, and told the staff and Doctor Luo Changfeng to keep an eye on the storefront.

"So it's Young Master Sun of the Qin family. It's been a long time. The front hall is bustling with business, why don't you invite Young Master Sun to sit and chat in the backyard."

"Very good."

Qin Haosheng also nodded slightly.

Both of them behaved decently and led them to the backyard.

In the backyard, I saw a few young children reading and practicing calligraphy, and there were only a few guys in the front hall to help.

Qin Haosheng took his seat, took the tea from Xia Bai'an, and was a little puzzled: "Boss Xia, why are there these children behind Tongji Hall?"

Xia Bai'an said frankly.

"Among these children, there are one or two seedlings who can be doctors in the future. They don't have a good foundation and don't want to learn. They will become the clerks of Tongjitang after they are trained. Now they are learning to learn calligraphy. They only go to the front hall to follow them when they are not busy. Learn, so as not to be a hindrance."

Qin Hao understood, and slightly arched his hands on his face.

"Boss Xia has a long-term vision."

"Young Master Qin and Sun don't need to praise you like that. I'm busy today, so I'm afraid I won't be able to chat with Young Master Sun. If you have anything to say, please speak directly." Xia Bai'an said.

Qin Haosheng raised his eyebrows and waved his hand to the attendants behind him.

Several people put the large and small bags in their hands on the stone table and opened it. Apart from some jewelry, there were also some rare and rare medicinal materials scattered here and there, which cost a thousand taels of silver.

Xia Bai'an asked, "What are these?"

Qin Haosheng opened the last box, revealing several expensive luminous pearls inside, and said with a slight smile.

"Before, our Qin family and Boss Xia had many conflicts. These were firstly used as congratulatory gifts for the golden plaque in Tongji Hall, and secondly, they were also for shaking hands and making peace."

This luminous pearl costs seven to eight hundred taels per piece.

And the few ones in this box are round and plump, and the value is probably even higher.

Qin Haosheng actually took out such an expensive thing, it can be seen that he really wanted to come here to shake hands and make peace.

Xia Bai'an also adhered to the two principles of not raising his hands to hit people with smiling faces, and being kind when opening the door to do business, and smiled and ordered people to accept them.

"Master Sun from Jishitang came to the door to make peace in person, and we at Tongjitang naturally want to give enough face."

"Boss Xia is really generous."

Qin Haosheng's hanging heart slowly fell, just as he was about to drink tea.

Xia Bai'an said again.

"The daughter of the Qin family has already become the concubine of the seventh prince Li Jie, but the concubine Degui is divorced from the daughter of the prime minister's mansion. The current situation of the Qin family is very embarrassing."

"..."

Qin Haosheng's hands froze in mid-air.

Xia Bai'an also said: "The daughter of the Qin family can't be a regular wife, so she has to be a concubine, but she has to cut off the seat with the prime minister's mansion. And Sun Taiwei and Concubine De Gui lost power. The emperor even thought of belittling Sun Taiwei. Chess seems to be going wrong."

Hearing this, Qin Haosheng smiled instead of angry.

"Boss Xia has the eyes to tell you the truth. I came here today to shake hands with you and make peace. I also hope that everyone is in business and don't make things difficult for each other."

It is a good thing that the Qin family wants to win over the imperial court, but it is true that the noble concubine Sun Taiwei dislikes Qin Yaoyao's background, and it is also true that Qin Yaoyao has no right to speak.

They could have used Yun Xue's mouth to help guide them a little bit.

Now that the two sides are falling out, only the Qin family is caught in the middle of the dilemma.

Xia Bai'an said: "We didn't intend to make things difficult for Ji Shitang either. After all, I don't think Master Qin and Sun are the ones who cause trouble, but the second young master of your Qin family and the second young master Sun..."

The way they caused trouble before is still vivid in my memory.

Xia Bai'an thought, if he didn't take advantage of this opportunity to strike a good deal today, and just accepted the gift in a hurry to shake hands and make peace, if he was killed by the Qin family in the future, then the loss would not be worth the loss.

Qin Haosheng also laughed when he heard this.

"I will definitely discuss this matter with my father when the time comes. If possible, it would be best if Jishitang and Tongjitang don't interfere with each other..."

"what--"

A sharp cry came from the front hall.

The noise exploded suddenly, and something was smashed and the sound of shouting exploded all at once.

Xia Bai'an frowned, his first reaction was to let the children who were studying and practicing calligraphy in the backyard go to the back room first, but during this brief interval, the outside voices became louder, and a boy from Tongji Hall was directly thrown in.

Xia Bai'an immediately turned around and looked.

He saw a limping man walking in slowly with a cane, followed by four tall thugs, staring at Qin Haosheng with bloodshot eyes.

"You are really a good brother of my father! This woman directly broke one of my legs. Why can I still live well in this capital? You even came here to give things without telling me and my father! I lost my face!"
