In the year of disaster, the tough peasant girl is not easy to mess with

Now in his 40s, he has no hope and only hopes to use his old life to repay his benefactor.

At this moment, when I saw Ye Lingyao again, I felt that the past events seemed like a world away.

"This subordinate has seen Miss."

Ye Lingyao stepped forward and gave him a hand, "There is no need to be polite, Shopkeeper Yan. Please sit down."

Shopkeeper Yan was not polite and sat opposite her.

"Manager Yan, how's business going lately?"

"Miss, Linghua Pavilion has become the most popular place among young ladies in the capital, with an endless stream of people coming and going every day."

Then he took out an account book from his sleeve and said, "This is the general account of Linghua Pavilion for this year. Please take a look, Miss."

Ye Lingyao picked up the account book and flipped through a few pages. The smile on her face deepened, "Yes, it seems that people in the capital are rich."

Shopkeeper Yan also laughed, "The capital is under the emperor's feet, and there are naturally many rich people. There are also accounts from other shops. I will send them to the lady tomorrow."

Ye Lingyao nodded and said no more.

Shopkeeper Yan hesitated for a while and asked, "Miss, are you here for inspection, or do you want to stay in the capital?"

Ye Lingyao picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, then turned to look at Yan Da, "I will probably stay in the capital for a while."

Yan Da thought for a while and said, "Do you want to buy a courtyard, Miss? I have been living in an inn and I always feel unsafe."

"You can arrange it and buy a place close to Gongyuan. My second brother will come to the capital next year to attend the Spring Festival. This will also make it easier for him to study. The yard should be bigger and the price can be higher, but the surroundings must be quiet."

Shopkeeper Yan wrote down the request, "Yes, Miss."

"Okay, then you go and do your work. I will walk around the capital by myself. The money will be taken out of my private account. Let me know when the house is bought."

"Yes, ma'am."

Shopkeeper Yan left after agreeing.

Ye Lingyao then left the private room with Jin Furong.

Linghua Pavilion is indeed very lively, and Yan Da is also a talented person who manages the place very well.

She just sat there for a while and lost interest.

This is her own property. There are many Linghua Pavilions in the entire Great Liang, and the items sold there are all made by herself. There is nothing new.

The two of them went directly outside.

After all, it’s not easy to come to the capital, and it’s time to take a good look around.

Jin Furong reminded, "Since Miss is here, shouldn't she pay a visit to Princess Tonghua?"

Ye Lingyao nodded, "We should pay a visit, but I don't know if she has time recently. Let's send her a message later and make an appointment to meet at Linghua Pavilion."

"Yes, ma'am."

After all, she and Princess Tonghua were just personal friends. If she came to her directly, she would probably be considered a clinger.

She didn't like that kind of interest relationship, so it would be better to just treat it as a simple relationship between little girls.

"Okay, let's forget about this for now. It's hard to come to the capital, and we have to take a good look around."

It really took me a whole day to walk around.

After it was over, Jin Furong felt that her legs were almost broken. Of course, Ye Lingyao was not much better either.

Although they were riding in a carriage, the carriage only traveled a short distance, and the rest of the street shops were visited by two people.

After walking for a whole day, the two of them felt more tired than fighting.

But they are happy in their hearts.

Buy, buy, buy, who would be unhappy?

When the two came back, they brought large and small bags of things, almost filling the entire room.

Although the two were described as master and servant, they were actually like sisters in private, and Ye Lingyao really regarded Jin Furong as her own sister.

Whatever is given to other family members, Jin Hibiscus' share is never missing.

Jin Furong was also very grateful to Ye Lingyao for treating her like a family member, so she stayed with her more carefully.

At this moment, the two of them lay facelessly on the bed, not wanting to move.

"Miss, let's not go shopping anymore, right? We're too tired."

"No, it's just that we haven't decided yet. After we buy the house, if we want to buy something, we can just ask them to deliver it to our door. We don't have to carry it."

"Ok."

It seems that the lady still wants to buy it.

As she said that, she ran into a pile of boxes and started tumbling about.

"What are you looking for?" Ye Lingyao asked doubtfully.

Jin Hibiscus dug out a large box from a large pile of things.

"This is jewelry, don't get it crushed."

Ye Lingyao sighed, "You still have time to worry about the jewelry. Why not tell the waiter that it's time for us to eat. Aren't you hungry?"

Upon saying this, Jin Hibiscus's stomach growled.

She was a little embarrassed and smiled, "I'm a little hungry."

So the two of them went to eat happily again.

On the second day, Jin Furong went to Princess Tonghua's residence, Prince Kang's Mansion, and handed over the message and made an appointment to meet at Linghua Pavilion three days later.

After getting the reply from Princess Tonghua, he returned to the inn.

Afterwards the two took a day off.

The next day, I went out and took a carriage to inspect the surroundings to see if there was any other business that could be done.

As a result, I heard something big when I went out.

There is an insect infestation outside the city!

Seeing Ye Lingyao's face, Jin Furong stepped forward and gave the waiter a piece of silver, and asked, "Brother, what's going on with this insect plague? It sounds pretty serious. Can you come with us?" Tell me?"

When talking about this little second brother, there was also a hint of worry on his face.

"This is not a secret. It doesn't hurt to tell you. Just over half a month ago, an insect plague suddenly appeared outside the capital. It was very serious and destroyed a lot of farmland. It also looked very scary and could not be killed. , but I didn’t dare to give medicine for fear of hurting others, so it became more and more serious.”

Jin Furong asked doubtfully, "What insect looks so scary? Isn't it a locust?"

"If the locusts were okay, they would at least know how to deal with them, light a torch and leave. But this thing was born in water, and it can crawl all over the ground. It's red and scary."

"Is it really that scary?"

"What you said, can I still lie to you? My home is just outside the capital, and our area was also affected by the disaster. I have seen the bug with my own eyes. It is really scary."

Listening to his words, Jin Furong also trembled.

She is most afraid of bugs. These bugs are so weird, but she must stay away from her!

Ye Lingyao asked with some confusion, "This is in the capital. The court should have measures in place, right? Why hasn't it been effective after half a month?"

The waiter sighed again, "I caught it and took the medicine, but there are really too many of them."
