Qin Zhongyue was too lazy to look at her silly look, so he took out a pen and paper and started writing the contract.

Brothers should settle accounts clearly. The contract for the thirty thousand taels and the VIP card was clearly written in black and white and stamped with fingerprints.

Since the Sixth Princess trusts her so much, she won't be stingy.

She took a look at the title deed and brought a backyard plan.

Although there is only one shop in the front, there is a small courtyard with two entrances in the back.

She liked this small courtyard very much and thought it could be renovated to become a VIP guest room for the ladies and nobles, which would provide better privacy.

Thirty thousand taels is not a lot but it is not a small amount either, and it is a win-win for both parties.

The next day, after Qin Zhongyue had breakfast, she sent someone to Fang Weichen's house to call Que, and she went to see him first.

The shop is located in the commercial street in the inner city and is quite new. It used to be a rouge shop. The rouge it bought was extremely expensive and not new. In addition, due to improper management, it became unable to make ends meet over time.

The small courtyard at the back is where the shopkeeper lives, and it is decorated quite elegantly.

Qin Zhongyue felt that the Sixth Princess was being played at first sight.

If this shop was really unable to make ends meet, how could the owner live in such a luxurious place?

The Sixth Princess naturally discovered the clues.

"Oh, no wonder his face changed when he saw me, it turned out to be corruption!

Go report to the police!"

At the Sixth Princess's command, the shopkeeper was so frightened that he fell to his knees and begged for mercy.

The Sixth Princess ignored him completely. She said that servants who bully their masters like this should be punished by law and she didn't even bother to say anything to him.

I have to say that the Sixth Princess was very wise to do this.

Soon the officers came and took the shopkeeper away. The Jingzhao Yin quickly forced the shopkeeper to confess, and found out that he not only had 20,000 taels of silver in deposits, but also owned two shops.

The Sixth Princess almost fell over in anger.

The shopkeeper's entire family was exiled to the frontier to do hard labor, and all their property was returned to the Sixth Princess.

Qin Zhongyue felt a little sympathy for the Sixth Princess. Why were all the people around her such traitors?

"Okay, don't be angry. After all, you have been discovered and you didn't lose any money.

You can continue to run this shop yourself."

Qin Zhongyue felt that since all the bad apples had been found, this shop was no longer a loss-making business.

"What are you talking about, sister-in-law? This shop is already yours, do you want to regret it?

I won't do that.

The shopkeepers are all gone, and I don’t know how to run a shop. If I want to reopen it, I’ll have to find someone new to run it, which is really troublesome.

I always say that sister-in-law is the benefactor in my life. If it weren’t for you, this shop would have been losing money all this time and I wouldn’t even know it.

This shop should be given to my sister-in-law. Let's go back and revise the contract.

Sister-in-law, what I said is from the bottom of my heart!

I don’t just say that.”

As the Sixth Princess spoke, she pressed her hands tightly on her waist, where the contract Qin Zhongyue had written for her was placed.

Qin Zhongyue was convinced by the Sixth Princess' heartfelt words.

"Okay, okay, I want this shop.

But you still have to follow the contract I wrote, otherwise what will you do if you default on your debt in the future?"

When the Sixth Princess heard the Princess and her sister-in-law say this, she felt relieved. Her Beauty Water VIP was finally saved.

"Sister-in-law, let me take you in to have a look. If you think there's something wrong, find someone to fix it right away."

The Sixth Princess pulled Qin Zhongyue into the shop impatiently and looked around, as if she was afraid that Qin Zhongyue would not want the shop.

This courtyard really needs to be modified. The two-story one is too small. It needs at least three or four stories.

Que also came at this time, and the two of them accompanied Que to look around. Que thought Qin Zhongyue's idea was good and agreed with it.

They were all action-oriented people, so they immediately went to find a craftsman.

There are many craftsmen in the capital, and they all do work for the rich and powerful. The first requirement is that they must be fast, and of course they must have good skills, otherwise no one will hire you to work.

If you don't do your job well in Beijing, you might end up getting fired.

However, no matter how fast it is built, the interior still needs to be repaired and decorated, which will take at least a month.

The next step is to wait for renovation.

This month is enough time for Qin Zhongyue to prepare beauty water and develop some high-end products, as well as value-added services specifically for the ladies.

The roof of the shop had just been removed, and in two days the spring imperial examination would finally be held in the capital.

Qin Zhongyue thought of her fourth brother, so she temporarily put aside all the matters at hand and went back to her mother's home to see if there was anything she could do to help.

Although she has no talent, she can still help with Fourth Brother's food and drink.

Originally the family was quite wealthy, but not long ago the sixth princess was poisoned, and all the family savings were drained out in an instant.

Not only her, but Xiao Jingyi also took it very seriously.

Xiao Jingyi really hopes that Qin Zhongyue's brothers will all be successful, so that Qin Zhongyue will be happy.

However, with the support of Tutor Li in terms of knowledge, none of them would embarrass themselves in this regard. They all thought of the same thing, which was to try their best to satisfy Qin Sixi materially.

Qin Sixi was dressed up from head to toe, looking brand new. Even his book box was specially made for him by Xiao Jingyi.

If Qin Zhongyue hadn't stopped him, it would have been almost inlaid with gold and silver.

Qin Sixi was a little overwhelmed by everyone's actions.

Everyone had high expectations of him, and he was afraid that he would not do well in the exam and would disappoint everyone.

Of course, if you don't do well in this exam, you won't be able to pass the Juren or Jinshi exams. The scholar exam itself is easy, and it takes a short time. You can go and come back on the same day. His scholar status was just restored a few days ago.

There were several tables set up at home, and he felt a little embarrassed at the time.

Qin Zhongyue saw the pressure on his fourth brother and felt that this was not a good idea as it would be counterproductive.

In fact, with Fourth Brother's knowledge, as Tutor Li said, under normal circumstances, there would be no problem for him to become a juren.

But I’m just afraid of that possibility.

Qin Sixi has started to pay attention to protecting his health during this period. He is afraid of catching a cold and dares not even drink cold water. If he gets diarrhea while running errands in the examination room, it will also affect his grades.

"Don't be afraid, Fourth Brother. You are in good health. Have you noticed that we have become healthier and stronger since we came back from Lingzhu?

Don't think too much, just go for the exam and leave the rest to us.

The worst-case scenario: what if I fail the exam?

You are still young, and we will continue to work hard next time. "

"Got it, sister."

Qin Sixi looked calm, but only he knew the oppressive feeling in his heart.

Because he wanted to pass the imperial examination so badly, although his second brother is now a fourth-rank general, it is a high-risk job and he has to take his head off.

He just wanted to graduate from high school as well, so that at least there would be someone to help him when his second brother was in trouble or had any problems.

Of course, if I pass the exam and make some achievements, it will be beneficial to my sister, parents, older brother, second brother, and third brother.

Not to mention for himself, he would not disgrace his master's careful cultivation of him.

Xiao Jingyi was actually quite attentive. He could see the pressure his fourth uncle was under, so he took him out for a walk before the exam.

After coming back, Qin Sixi was completely refreshed and energetic, and no longer thought about those things.

Qin Zhongyue asked Xiao Jingyi where he took his fourth brother, but Xiao Jingyi refused to tell her.

"If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. But I still want to thank you. This is for you."

“After eating these, the poison in your body will be cleared.

And this can heal old injuries on your body.

These medicines are very difficult to make, so don’t tell anyone about them. I don’t want to do it again, and my hands are covered in blisters.”

Qin Zhongyue took out two small porcelain bottles and handed them to Xiao Jingyi.

It was filled with pills she made herself.

Xiao Jingyi grabbed her hands that she was about to put down, and saw that her originally pink palms were red and swollen, with several blisters as big as fingernails.

He took Qin Zhongyue to see Doctor Yu.

Although Qin Zhongyue's strength has increased, it is still not enough for Xiao Jingyi, who insists on holding her wrist.

Because the opponent had internal strength, she could only rely on brute force. How could she match the opponent's real martial arts? She could only be dragged away.

"I won't go. Doctor Yu is not in the mansion."

After hearing this, Xiao Jingyi stopped pulling Qin Zhongyue and pulled her to sit down on the chair.

"Someone, Qin, check if Doctor Yu has come back. Tell him to come over here quickly!"

The blisters on Qin Zhongyue's hands were indeed caused by making medicinal herbs for Xiao Jingyi.

Originally I could just leave everything to the system, but I thought I couldn’t always rely on the system in the future, and I haven’t gained any points for a long time, so I wanted to save some points.

She was doing it without noticing it, and when she realized it, blisters had appeared on the palms of her hands.

She hadn't really used her hands to work for a long time, and her hands had been rather delicate over time, with the skin too tender. In fact, it was just a blister that would heal in two days after being popped.

Xiao Jingyi was really distressed. Seeing the blisters on her hands, his heart ached and softened.

This happened just for him, how can I not feel sad?

Now I am filled with emotion.

Qin Zhongyue felt that Xiao Jingyi had become a little overbearing. Was it because she had given him face?

Doctor Yu, who was just about to take a nap, heard the prince's urgent call and came over in his slippers.

When he arrived, he was shocked to see that the palms of the princess' hands were covered with blisters.

"How did this happen?"

Could it be that he was burned? It doesn't look like it.

When I got closer and looked carefully, I realized what it was used for.

"How do you treat this hand, Princess? Use the best medicine."

Xiao Jingyi looked at Doctor Yu, who looked unkempt, with disdain.

"It's not difficult. Just pop the blister and let the yellow water out. Then apply some ointment and wrap it up with a scab for a day or two and it will be healed."

Doctor Yu pretended not to see the prince's look of disdain for him. He was just getting ready for bed. Who would tidy up the room so neatly before going to bed?

"What did you say?

This will form a scab. How can it form a scab?

No matter what method you use, you must not leave scars on the princess' hands!"

Doctor Yu was speechless when he saw the prince's anxious look and didn't want to explain to him anymore.

Because now he can't listen to the important things at all, and only listens to what he wants to hear, which makes communication impossible.

He took out a silver needle and prepared to prick the blisters on Qin Zhongyue's hand.

The young lady thought that the way he took out the silver needle was so rough. What if it pierced the flesh on Qin Zhongyue's hand?

How painful it is!

No!

He immediately snatched the silver needle from Doctor Yu's hand, and he had to do this job himself.

The princess's hands were in this state because she was preparing medicinal herbs for him, so of course he had to prick the blisters for the princess himself.

"I'll do it myself."

Qin Zhongyue was a little scared when she saw Xiao Jingyi's attitude as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

"Your hands are injured. No, let me do it. I won't hurt you."

Xiao Jingyi was determined not to give up the needle, so Qin Zhongyue had to give up, thinking that if he hurt her, she would kick him subconsciously, and it should be fine.

It turned out that Xiao Jingyi was really careful. He was sweating profusely while picking at a few blisters.

Seeing that he had finally finished choosing, Xiao Jingyi smiled on his serious face, "Okay."

He then had to apply the medicine and bandage the wound himself.

"Change the dressing on time every day."

Xiao Jingyi was afraid that Qin Zhongyue would forget, so he gave very detailed instructions. At this moment, he was like a responsible famous doctor, which made Qin Zhongyue laugh so funny that he actually laughed out loud.

"Don't take the injury on your hand lightly. It would be bad if it leaves a scar."

"As you command, Doctor Xiao!"

Qin Zhongyue's joke made Xiao Jingyi's ears blush.

"Sit still and don't move. It hasn't been bandaged yet."

Qin Zhongyue was speechless. She had blisters on her hands, not her feet. However, seeing how serious he looked, she obeyed him and didn't move.

"As you command, Doctor Xiao!"

She continued teasing.

Looking at the serious Xiao Jingyi, I feel that this man now seems more handsome and more attractive than usual.

I noticed that the tips of his ears were getting redder and redder. Could he be shy?

Qin Zhongyue thought, she didn’t say anything, nor did she do anything to make him embarrassed?

The Sixth Princess came over to chat with the Princess and her sister-in-law, but as soon as she came in, she was fed a mouthful of dog food.

Seeing that the second prince was carefully caressing sister-in-law's hand, my first reaction was: what happened to sister-in-law's hand?

Seeing the look of heartache on Second Brother's face and Doctor Yu who was watching the show on the side, he thought that his sister-in-law's hand should be fine.

Seeing this, she didn't want to stay and spoil the fun, or disturb her brother and sister-in-law from improving their relationship.

Or he could come back later. He also winked at Doctor Yu, and the two of them quietly left Wangyue Garden.

Qin Zhongyue's hands were bandaged like dumplings by Xiao Jingyi, and Xiao Jingyi let go of her hands. When she looked up, Madam Yu was gone.

It seemed like someone came just now, but it seemed like an illusion.

It seems that I haven’t had enough rest these days. I need to take a good rest.

"I want to sleep for a while, do you want to sleep?"

Xiao Jingyi didn't have the habit of taking a nap on weekdays, but now that the beauty invited him, he couldn't refuse her kindness, so he accompanied Qin Zhongyue to sleep for the whole afternoon. However, only Qin Zhongyue really slept for the whole afternoon.

The new emperor ascended the throne and needed fresh blood. Many people requested to take part in the Spring Examination, so the candidates could enter the examination hall the day before.

They were afraid that there would be too many candidates tomorrow and the soldiers checking them would not have enough time, thus wasting time.

The Qin family is in the capital, and everyone in the family feels that there is no need to rush, and it will not be too late to enter the examination hall that day.

Qin Sixi saw that his family was very busy and he had a lot of things to bring, so he decided to go to the examination room the night before so that he could pack and prepare in advance.

Seeing that he had made up his mind, his family members put down what they were doing and sent him to the examination room.

Both the spring and autumn examinations last for nine days. During these nine days, candidates have to stay in the examination room and are not allowed to enter or leave, so they have to bring a lot of things.

There are nine days of eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. Although it is spring, the weather may still be cold, so you have to prepare enough warm clothes and bedding, as well as charcoal for boiling water.

During these nine days, except for the specific time for washing and going to the toilet, the rest of the time had to be spent in the cramped small examination room. Those who were slightly taller could not even stretch their legs when lying down.

When Qin Zhongyue saw the examination room, he felt that the students of later generations were so happy that they were about to fly to the sky. If the students of later generations were placed in this era, it was estimated that few of them would be able to leave the examination room smoothly.

She believed that she was just herself and it was difficult for her to persist and leave the examination room smoothly.

The soldiers checking at the entrance of the examination room were speechless when they saw Qin Sixi carrying lots of bags like a refugee.

However, their job is to check what the candidates bring with them to make sure there is no cheating or violation of exam rules.

The reason why the soldiers were speechless was that even if two people checked these things at the same time, it would probably take nearly half an hour to finish.

Check the large bedding first, then the clothes, and finally the food.
