Daming Grocer

Chapter 65

After serving the Lord for a while, he finally regained his senses. After all, he couldn't escape the duty of working hard all night.

Five eight times

It was already early summer, and Qijian made people look for a restaurant in the city. Merchants who came from the north to the south rested here for free tea and water. It had only been open for more than two months. Almost all merchants passing through Kunming used it as a transit and closed here. Write back, rest and chat.The princess is busy in the villa alone, and she is afraid that Qijian will be bullied outside. Of course, she insisted on telling Dr. Chu the reason, and Dr. Chu just nodded with a hidden smile. Now the two go out together and go back to the villa. If you don't want to stay in the restaurant, you can walk around the city or go to the fields to see the spring plowing.

Now that new tea is being picked at this time, this morning Qijian said that he would not go to the restaurant to visit the tea mountain. A group of people all wore clothes that are easy to walk in, and put gauze hats on the female relatives before going out.Talking and laughing along the way, Qingzhu didn't come out because of her inconvenient body, but the little girl who came with her was trained very well.

Since Qijian doesn't remember the past, one of the princess's hobbies is to tell her about her past, and now she talks about it for a while, and it's another story, and she can believe what Qijian says every time Really.Tang Dao and the others felt that the princess was very unkind at first, and then they thought it was interesting to see Qiye being shrewd in business on weekdays, and listening to the princess say that their affairs were so stupid and naive, and it was quite interesting. I also helped to add a few sentences when editing the story.

The tea picking girls on the tea mountain were very busy, and Qijian didn't want to go up to disturb them, but just walked around to look at this year's tea, and saw that the new tea was really good, so he sat down in the pavilion to drink tea.The princess had already heard Shen's mother tell about Qijian's birth in Chashan, and now she started telling her a story, and in the middle of the story, Qijian offered her some tea: "Ma'am, what I said was made three months ago." Yes, let's put it another way." After hearing this, everyone laughed, but slowly realized that they didn't bring their usual memorandum with them when they came out, and they remembered the gossip from three months ago?

Since Chashan, the princess has been observing Qijian’s words and deeds from time to time, and seeing that she is saying good-bye to a merchant who hasn’t seen her for half a year, Tang Dao didn’t have time to remind her. Like inkstones that have been washed away, perhaps one or two of them can be remembered after being reminded, but it is impossible to completely remember the long scrolls.

In the middle of summer, Liang Daoyuan came back and said that there was a drought and famine in the west of Zhejiang, and the land was full of hunger. Master Xia Yuan Jixia went to relieve the disaster by order, but the west Zhejiang government couldn't afford the grain for a while, and the grain merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were hoarding grain to make money for the country. Literati in Jiangsu and Zhejiang wrote a large number of articles attacking these wealthy businessmen, and Yu Dafu's caravan was robbed from the west of Zhejiang.He came back this time to set up the half-year account, and to ask for instructions on whether he could help Mrs. Xia, but this meddling has since been inseparable from the officialdom.

The two haven't seen each other for more than half a year, and they have too much to talk about. It's almost midnight and they are still very interested.The summer insects in the villa are all quiet, and the sound of running water near the mountain can be heard clearly. The two of them have already drank half a jar of berry wine. At this time, the princess stepped forward and sat beside Qijian to listen to them. Si cared, she understood Qijian's worries, and she didn't want to have anything to do with the officials. If she helped Lord Xia in this disaster relief, she would inevitably have to deal with it in the future.The girl added some wine to Liang Daoyuan, and when she was about to add wine to Qijian, the princess stopped him: "You go down first." After the girl left, she added some wine to Qijian and poured herself a glass: "Keep your word, Master Xia He used to be a former minister of Emperor Jianwen, but he is reused because of his outstanding talent, he is a good official, he cares about the common people, so please help him if you can.”

The Seven Thrifts of Food for Disaster Relief let people think of ways to raise as soon as possible, and count as much as they can, but she has been quite jealous these days, and she can't remember the past, so she wonders if this Master Xia who can be remembered by her wife has ever It is her wife's old acquaintance, and the friendship is beyond comparison with ordinary people.If she wanted to think like this, no one could stop her, the princess was quite helpless, seeing how aggrieved she was, she couldn't laugh or cry.In the daytime, I talk to businessmen from all over the world in the restaurant, and I can't be free for a moment. Now I will go back to the villa and read a book in the study after dinner. I will read the notebook I wrote before. It also said that when I asked Mr. Peng in class tomorrow, it seemed that I completely forgot that Mr. Peng was sponsored by her to go to Beijing for the exam.

The princess asked the girl to put down the stew and leave, and then she leaned next to her: "Maybe I will have your thoughts on other things, but I don't have this one. Think about it carefully, can you remember what our business is?" Where do you start?" Qijian didn't want to start a conversation, but couldn't stand the princess's gentle eyes, so he had to think for a while: "I can remember picking up the wedding sedan chair from the palace that day, but I really can't remember other things." The princess didn't want to talk too much about the past, but she told the story of how she knew Mrs. Xia, and said with emotion: "Chunhe Daoist finally cured you, it doesn't matter if you don't remember the past. After the autumn, keep your word How about going back to Jinling with me to thank her?"

Before the autumn, Qing Zhu gave birth to a daughter, Tang Dao was really happy, wishing he could hold the mother and daughter in his palms on the spot.Dr. Chu was also quite tired after delivering the baby, so he could barely eat some porridge. Seeing Shu Hongjian looking at her all the time, he smiled dotingly and pinched her chin: "What are you looking at?" "You said... princess Will you regret not being a mother in this life?" Although he was referring to the princess, he was actually asking her, Chu Yunshu smiled and shook his head: "I don't know if the princess regrets it or not, but I think she doesn't. If it were me, I wouldn't regret it. If you like children, you can adopt a few. In today's world, there are children who have no parents like me." Shu Hongjian held her hand and stopped her from saying: " Hurry up and eat, and go to rest after eating, you have to rest well in the next few days, and we will go back to Jinling with Qiye in a few days."

Er Xi accompanies Mr. Peng to the exam and also lives in Shen's Mansion in Jinling, and now she is also pregnant. Hong'er is with her all day long, and the two of them go in and out together like sisters.Qijian recovered her energy in Jinling, accompanied the princess to worship the ancestors, and rebuilt Hua Niang's tomb, and then wandered around the city for a few days. Some merchants in the shop saw her come back, and they all invited her to eat. Wine, she can't push it or not, some people really can't remember who is who, but fortunately with Delai and the Tang family brothers, she can barely handle it.

When I went to Qingliang Mountain this day, Qijian was afraid that the etiquette was not perfect, so he asked the princess to explain the matter to her several times.Before entering the Taoist gate, a Taoist boy said that the master was not fit to see guests, but he wanted to have a few words with Mr. Shen alone.The princess probably understood that Chun and the Taoist priest wanted to ask Qijian about Hua Niang, but this person didn't remember anything, this... Thinking of this, he stepped forward and shook Qijian's hand: "What did the Taoist priest ask you? Just answer the truth, if you don’t remember something, just say you don’t remember it, don’t worry about it.” Qi Jian also nodded and said: “Then please wait here for Madam.”

Daotong took Qijian into a wing room, and saw that the decoration should be the place where the Taoist priest usually does his homework. He was looking around, and heard a slight cough. Chief, I don’t know that the chief is ill, today is really not the right time.” The man dressed in Taoist robes standing by the window didn’t look at her, but covered his mouth and coughed twice: “I have a cough, so I won’t talk to the young master. Let’s talk, just a few words, let’s finish it.” “Please speak, Taoist priest.”

"Young master, do you still remember your dead wife?"

"To be honest, I don't remember. The princess told me that her name is Huazhang, and I have visited her this time when I came to Jinling. The Taoist priest also knows about my previous poisoning. I have forgotten the past, and I still look to the Taoist priest Haihan."

"Your impression of her is all based on what the princess said? How did the princess tell you?"

"When Hua Niang and I met Yu Wei, we went all the way from Chengjiang Mansion to Chengdu Mansion to make a living. It's only my fault that I was too aggressive and focused on how to get rich, but I failed to care about her body. Unfortunately, she contracted a disease and eventually died in Chengdu Mansion. .This is not what the princess said alone, Delai and Erxi Honger all said the same, is there something wrong?"

"You guys, are you in love?"

"Inevitably fall in love."

"If she is still alive, what will you do?"

"The Taoist priest's words are wrong. If Huaniang is still alive, how can I separate from her? If she is alive, I must be inseparable with her now, and there is no mention of marriage with the princess."

The person standing by the window was silent for a long time, and asked again: "I have no impression of her, do you regret it?"

"I once loved, but where does the word regret come from?"

"Okay...Okay. I have asked all I want to ask, so let's go."

Qijian cupped his hands hesitantly: "Although I don't know what the long-term questions mean, Shen Shouxin is sincere. Although I have no impression of my dead wife, I always believe that a woman who can love me must be worthy of my love." Giving everything to stay with her for the rest of her life, Hua Niang used to be like this, and now the princess is doing the same."

After she was gone, the man standing by the window turned to look at her, and kept watching her disappear through the door.

When going down the mountain, the princess didn't ask Qijian what Taoist Priest had said to her, but only said that the chance of coming back to Qingliang Mountain might be less.Qijian also thinks the same way. Setting up a home in Kunming is like taking root. All she wants to do when she travels far away is to go home as soon as possible. Now the business is full of talented people. Liang Daoyuan, Tang brothers and Delai take care of her. Well done, I'm afraid there will be fewer opportunities to travel far in the future.
