Daming Grocer

There are all kinds of things, but it is really a grocery store. At this time, there are still many surrounding merchants who come to buy goods.Qijian was going back to Yunnan, and she also wanted to bring a batch of goods from Jinling to the merchants. This time, she repeatedly told Luo Yunqing and Shen Yuntong not to publicize the matter of stocking up.Quietly preparing, she chose a date to leave, and before that, no one knew exactly which day she would leave.After such a big stumble, despite Mu Xin's repeated assurances, these things are impossible to guard against, and it is impossible to be cautious from time to time.

At that time, following Shang Cong from Yunnan to Shu, the biggest experience along the way was that the food was not good.If you don't eat well, your physical strength will not keep up.During these days, Qijian ordered the cook in the house to make dry food according to her idea, and tried every means to make noodles and rice into food for long-distance storage.At this moment, she was busy controlling the overall situation, and she would come to help Shu Hongjian from time to time, when someone next to her handed over a piece of food, she took it without even thinking about it, chewed it a few times, and suddenly froze, this food, but she had never eaten it Pass.

Turning around, the princess and a group of maids in the mansion were standing there, telling the guys to stop and rest, making tea and giving out food, which made the gang of bloody teenagers smirk and stay still.No matter how juicy and beautiful the girls are, no matter how fragrant the tea they make, no matter how tempting the food they hand over, if Master Qi doesn't speak, they won't dare to move.

Seeing her, Qijian looked at her stupidly, and hummed: "Don't be rough, there are goods that can't be wet in the yard." A group of men roared happily, and went to the girl they liked. Take the food, but no matter how reckless he is, he still remembers Qi Ye's words and dare not be too presumptuous.It really hurts to overturn the tea, but all the things here are carried on my shoulders and hands, and I know it's hard work.

"How do you feel about being trustworthy?" Several people walked to a clean place and sat down on a stone bench. Qi Jian was stunned by the princess's question, what's the matter? "The chief manager is really dizzy from work. What you ate just now was the dry food made in the house. I told you to take it with you all the way. Is it delicious?" Qingzhu explained, and Shu Hongjian picked up a small piece of food on the plate. Kuai tried the taste, and then nodded: "Although I haven't been to the store, the taste of this food is really not bad."

Seeing Qijian's doubts, Mu Haitang first said: "I've tried it for ten days, and it can be stored. You can cook it on the road. There are pasta, rice, and dried vegetables." Qijian looked at the food on the table in surprise. After a while, Shi Pan said: "The princess is a great favor." It is indeed a great favor, and she only discussed it with the servants in the mansion, but she didn't think about it.

Qijian praised Mu Haitang so much that he had no words for a while, and didn't reply, but smiled shyly with his head held back.Shu Hongjian first winked at Qingzhu, and then took away all the people around them.

After everyone had left, Qijian realized that something was wrong, but he couldn't say anything, so he smiled at the princess: "It's fine if you're all gone, I'll tell you about the itinerary, tomorrow night." Haitang lightly hid her smile, wanted to say something but finally just nodded, and said after a while: "Be careful on the way. My mother is going back to Yu Mansion, and I will walk with you tomorrow."

It's no wonder that Mu Yu's family has never been seen intending to go south. It turns out that the princess has this plan.Mu Yu's family must have sent a lot of guards when they went south, and this is the princess protecting her again.The master didn't have to worry about these things. She was supposed to plan and test her abilities, but the princess gave her a ride after another, but she didn't do anything to repay her.Thinking through this point, Qijian stood up and bowed: "Great kindness of the princess, keep your word and remember it."

Mu Haitang accepted her obeisance, waved her fan to let her sit down, and said with a helpless smile, "I won't go back to Yu's mansion, my mother always has a grudge in her heart. I have already dragged you in, so I stopped talking politely. I hope you keep your word and be more patient." Qijian blushed slightly at these words, she understood that the princess meant that the old lady would regard her as the chief culprit who seduced the princess, and might even talk about her as her son-in-law.In short, embarrassment is bound to happen.Not to mention that she is a minister of the princess, but according to the old lady's understanding, it is only natural for her "son-in-law" to tolerate her mother-in-law.You should be patient, you should be patient.

Both of them thought of something and stopped talking for a while.After a long time, Mu Haitang suddenly called out in a low voice: "Shouxin..." At this point, Shu Hongjian walked over and told Qijian that work was about to start.Qijian looked at her without saying a word. She hadn't told anyone about the departure tomorrow except the princess just now, but Qijian guessed that Shu Hongjian might be the only one who saw her intentions.Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, a festival of reunion, and it is customary, and most people are unwilling to violate this tradition.

Being cut off from the conversation, Mu Haitang had no choice but to get up, looked at Qijian again and again, but didn't say anything more about it.

After the princess left for a while, Shu Hongjian handed Qijian a cup of tea, and the two walked to a corner to rest.Holding the teacup, Shu Hongjian looked at Qijian for a long time and said with a sneer, "Your appearance is indeed worthy of being a good face. Since you are determined to be a minister under your skirt, why bother to pretend to be a gentleman here and strive for self-improvement."

There was no reason for this provocation, and Qijian paused his teacup with a pale face: "Shu Hongjian! The Princess and I have no grievances or enmities with you, why did you say that!" Is it true? You know in your heart whether the relationship between you and the princess is a master and a servant. It has only been a few months since your wife passed away. Do you still remember her? Shen Shouxin, you are a ruthless and ruthless person who pursues fame and fortune, so why do you do it? It’s better to be more straightforward and stop pretending to be deeply in love with the dead wife while being cautious with the princess.”

After hearing this, Qi Jian suddenly stopped being angry, because she heard that Shu Hongjian's words were not only disdainful and mocking, but also angry.Curious about this anger for a moment, he simply sat down and said, "Why don't you tell me what's on your mind, and see what I did to hurt you and make you so concerned about my affairs."

These words made Shu Hongjian feel as if all his strength had been pumped out, and he sat down and shook his head slumped.She didn't speak, and Qijian was not in a hurry, as expected, after two or three cups of tea, she still spoke.

"I was born on the same day as Ziyan, and we have been inseparable for more than ten years. I get up early to practice female labor, and come later to learn Danqing. In the fifteenth year, her father was imprisoned due to the aftermath of the Hu Weiyong case, and the family was in decline. Since then, my father has never Let me be with her. At that time, I thought it was ridiculous. It was impossible to separate me from Ziyan. But things are often involuntary. That day I went to find Ziyan as usual, but was told that they were away from home. Qian. I really can't believe that she avoided me and went away without saying a word."

When Shu Hongjian said this, Qijian suddenly understood.Those who are down in the family of official women often fall into prostitution.That Ziyan probably did the same.

Seeing Qijian's oh, Shu Hongjian also nodded: "Your savvy is the best I have ever seen besides Ziyan. When I saw her again, it was in the most famous brothel in Hangzhou. At that time, my heart, It was really broken into fine sand, and I couldn’t force it to be squeezed into a ball. I wanted to redeem her, but she only asked one sentence, and then... I was speechless as a married woman at the time. Then. Her The sad smile at that time is still clearly in my heart. You can probably guess what happened later. She died suddenly, and I used madness to deceive myself that it was not true until now."

"You replaced me as you and Huaniang as her, so you can't tolerate me not keeping the festival for Huaniang. I understand." Qijian patted her on the shoulder and said: "Death cannot be resurrected, you have to understand , she always wishes you a better life." "So, your feelings for Hua Niang have finally said that you can't be resurrected?" The angry expression appeared again, and it was still coming at her.Qijian didn't want to argue with her at this time, so he had to avoid answering.

"Do you think that, in your capacity, you can really climb the high branch of the princess? Don't be wishful thinking. For the sake of what you have heard me say so much tonight, let me tell you a fact. You have been guessing why I am here with you Beside, I can give you a clear answer today. It was Princess Changning who asked me to watch over you. If you dare to cross the line, and she knows that moment, then your life will end at that moment. Shen Shouxin, the relationship between Princess Changning and Princess Huayue , it’s not you or me who can guess one or two. That’s all for now, please do it yourself.”

Shu Hongjian's departure made Qijian sit silent for a long time, and finally wanted to understand one thing.No matter which one of her and the princess takes the initiative to have an affair in the future, as long as she dares to take a step forward, she will die.Although she never expected that the princess would really fall in love with her, Princess Changning's meaning made her understand that the farther she and the princess, the better.

It's too late to finish working on the warehouse.There is actually a store with lights on in the street market. After thinking about it carefully, I understand that tomorrow, no, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival at this time, and the business of the mooncake workshop will be very good.

I went up to say hello to my aunt, bought a few mooncakes with rabbit patterns and wrapped them up.Before entering the mansion, they were deceiving themselves that it was bought for the maids and servants in the mansion who waited for her to come back every day to rest.But after entering the door, seeing the bright candles in the hall, and the Princess holding a book and yawning gracefully, she admitted in her heart that these mooncakes really wanted to make this man smile.

"Tomorrow's Mid-Autumn Festival, I can't accompany you and mother to enjoy the moon at the evening banquet, so I specially bought mooncakes to celebrate this Mid-Autumn Festival in advance." The moment Qijian opened the paper bag, Qijian saw the childlike smile on the corner of the princess's mouth, and his heart seemed to be instantly shattered. This smile is full, full of satisfaction, and I can't help but be infected so that I don't know it because of the silly smile.

Three times

It was the Lantern Festival when Emperor Hongwu made his triumphant return to Pingxinan, and the craftsmen of Yingtian Prefecture showed their abilities to win the sacred heart at the lantern festival.There was a cobbler in Yingtianfu who made sheepskin boot lamps at the Lantern Festival, but was later accused of alluding to Empress Ma.The emperor was furious, and a large number of cobblers were dispatched to Yunnan.These cobblers were later collected in Shuhe by Mu's chieftain, so Shuhe's leather goods were really the favorite of businessmen.Good workmanship and durable.

Mu Haitang gave Qijian the leather boots that had been collected from other caravans. Although the imperial court strictly forbids commoners to wear boots,
