Qin Yu glanced at the note again: "If he had taken action, the thief would not have escaped, and she could have saved a lot of trouble."

Chen Zheng looked at Qin Yu and said hesitantly, "Then tell An San to take care of Miss Shen's affairs from now on?"

Qin Yu shook his head: "No, it's okay if she doesn't know about the existence of the secret guards. She probably won't like anyone interfering with her. If she really needs someone, she will take the initiative to find one."

Chen Zheng nodded: "And..."

Qin Yu saw that he was hesitant and said, "Just say it."

"An Yi said that Miss Yan Yan's family moved to Xiezhou Prefecture. They were brought there by a young man named Ruan. Do you want to check on this man?"

"No, let her do whatever she wants, don't worry about it."

Seeing that Qin Yu didn't say anything else, Chen Zheng walked out.

Qin Yu himself was lost in thought. Would she miss him? Would she fall in love with Guan Wenyi? It seemed that he should go back.

……

There are many people working in the workshop now, so Shen Li set up a table and a few stools and placed them in the workshop for them to rest or eat while working.

Because of the thieves, she installed a bolt on the inside of the door so that if someone else lived there in the future, the door could be fastened from the inside.

Wu Zhong's injury has improved a lot and he can go to the county for a checkup on his own.

There is also a room that was previously used to make ointments. It is now a storage room. It has been cleaned up by Liu Dahua, and Wu Zhong can live there from now on.

Shen Li is busy making ointment in the workshop every day. It is now being sold in four counties. The demand is huge and it is not a small amount. She roughly estimated that at least 8,000 to 9,000 boxes can be sold per month. The price may increase in the future because the other three counties have not been selling it for long and this county is still the best-selling one.

As time went by, Wu Zhong's injuries healed. He went back home, returned the silver given by Shen Li to the creditor, and left some for his father. After returning, he started delivering goods with Li the Hunter.

They delivered the goods to rouge shops in various counties, and then took the money back from Shen Li. They were not worried that they would steal anything, after all, the amount of the ointment was there, and they could tell how much money they should get back with a simple calculation.

Now she already has an account book, and she is in charge of it now, but she will have to find someone to take care of it later.

Thinking of this, Shen Li put down the work in his hands and said, "Sister Daya, are you interested in accounting?"

We have to find a trustworthy person to be the accountant, and Li Daya is talented. If she learns a little, she will be the most suitable candidate.

Li Daya wiped the water off her hands and said, "Ali, can I do this? Your business will grow bigger and bigger in the future. I'm afraid I can't manage it well. Besides, I don't know how to do anything."

"You can learn if you don't know how to do it. Do you want to take care of it?"

Li Daya nodded without hesitation: "Yes, I like it very much."

"That's settled then. I'll pay for an accountant to teach you. You should learn well and you will be in charge of all the accounts from now on." After Shen Li finished speaking, he thought about it again. This may have to be done after moving to the provincial capital. Now there is a shortage of staff and it is really difficult to handle it.

Speaking of the state capital, I really need to promote the ointment sometime.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Ali, and I'll definitely study hard."

Li Erya said beside her: "Sister, you are really amazing."

"I'm not that great, it's Ali who trusts me."

Mother Li nodded and said, "Yes, so Daya and Erya, you must work hard and don't let Ali down."

Li Daya nodded: "I understand, mother."

Li Erya looked at Shen Li and said, "Stop pretending. Are you feeling happy?"

Shen Li rolled his eyes: "Of course I'm happy when someone praises me."

At this time, Liu Dahua walked in: "Ali, it's time to eat."

Shen Li replied, "I'm here, mother." Then she stood up and walked out, then turned back and said, "Aunt Li, you guys should also take a rest and then go home to cook."

She doesn't provide meals here because there are too many people, and Liu Dahua can't do it alone. But there is a lunch break at noon, so the Li family members go home and cook for themselves, and then they can rest for a while after eating and come back to work in the afternoon.

The only ones eating now were Liu Dahua, Shen Xing and Shen Li. Wu Zhong was mostly out delivering goods. Even at home, he would not eat with them, but would take his bowl to the workshop to eat.

He said it was unreasonable for a servant to eat with his master's family.

Shen Li let him do what he wanted. As long as it wasn't a big deal, she would let him do what he wanted. She had seen how stubborn he was, so she wouldn't argue with him unless it was necessary.

"Ali, I heard from the villagers that Ma Hong is getting married." Liu Dahua said while eating.

Shen Li looked up at Shen Xing, and Shen Xing also looked at her. The brother and sister's eyes met, and they understood each other's meaning.

"So fast?"

Liu Dahua: "Ma Hong's belly can't hold up. If it takes longer, it will get bigger."

"Third brother, it seems that my guess is correct."

"Ah."

Seeing that he didn't say much, Shen Li didn't say anything else. This matter had been discussed before and there was nothing more to say. Now the result was just proved.

"Third brother, how is your martial arts training going now? You haven't had time to practice martial arts during this period. Now that Wu Zhong is here, you don't have to go out unless it is necessary. Just practice martial arts at home."

"I think so too. Besides, I'm afraid that the Ma family with bad intentions will come to steal again. We can't give them the chance."

"There's no reason to be on guard against thieves every day." Shen Li felt a little melancholy.

Shen Xing smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes: "It's okay, don't worry about it, I'm here for you."

Shen Li thought about it and realized that if he was at home every day, they wouldn't dare to do anything. They could talk about it later. There would always be a solution. "So how is your martial arts?"

"I have already reached the third level, and I am quite familiar with it. It's just that I have only been practicing my internal strength for a short time. Otherwise, I, your third brother, would be a real master."

Shen Li said: "Yes, Third Brother's talent in martial arts is unmatched, amazing."

Just as Shen Xing was about to speak, he saw Shen Han coming into the yard: "Brother, why are you back?"

Shen Li and Liu Dahua turned around and saw him as well.

Shen Han put the things he was carrying on the ground, then sat down at the table: "It's holiday time."

Liu Dahua stood up to get the bowl and chopsticks, then placed them in front of him: "Didn't you say there would be no holiday at the end of this month?"

Shen Han picked up his chopsticks and started eating: "Originally, I said I wouldn't release it, but now that the date for the provincial examination has been set, I'll release it."

Shen Li asked hurriedly: "When?"

"August 10th."

"So, brother, have you already dropped out of school?"

"If I can pass the exam, that's it. It's already the end of July, and there are still ten days left. I have to prepare to go to the state capital."

"Where is the examination room, bro?"

"The provincial capital's imperial examination hall."

Shen Li calculated the time, but it was not enough: "Then let's eat quickly, and then we will leave for the provincial capital in the afternoon."

Shen Han was puzzled: "Don't be so anxious, there is still time. Besides, you want to go too?"
