Chapter 545: Just Running an Errand

Qin Eryong, carrying two thousand taels of silver notes, did not dare to delay for a moment and ran out of Ruyi Tower without looking back.

After seeing Lin Yuan, he quickly jumped onto the carriage.

Qin Eryong felt like his heart was about to jump out of his throat. His back was soaked with sweat and his clothes were sticking tightly to his body.

Yang Zhi asked with concern, "Is everything going well?"

Qin Eryong nodded and said, "Brother Yang, everything went well, but my heart is beating so fast.

I have never negotiated such a big deal since I was a child, I..."

Yang Zhi smiled and comforted him, "Eryong, there's a first time for everything. In the future, you'll definitely be able to negotiate bigger deals."

Qin Eryong wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, "Brother Yang, you are joking.

That's it? I'm so nervous I'm soaking wet."

After saying this, he laughed first, and Yang Zhi also laughed, "Eryong, your elder brother Yang is at least a few years older than you, remember what I said, you should follow the master and the mistress to do things well.

In a few years, you might not even care about a business worth two thousand taels of silver."

After hearing what Yang Zhi said, Qin Eryong fell into deep thought.

Yang Zhi glanced at Qin Eryong and didn't say anything to him. He just asked Lin Yuan to speed up.

All I could hear along the way was the whistling of the wind and the crisp sound of horses' hooves stepping on the ground.

Soon they arrived at the shop. Yang Zhi instructed Lin Yuan, "The carriage will enter through the front door, and we will go through the back door to meet the master and mistress."

Li Le had been waiting for them for a long time. When he heard the sound of the carriage, someone opened the door for them.

Qin Eryong just nodded to Li Le and followed Yang Zhi to the backyard.

Zhang Juexia was getting a little anxious waiting, and Ye Beixiu tried to comfort her, "Didn't you just praise Eryong for being reliable?

You, just sit on the chair and wait patiently. I guess you'll be back soon."

"I want to be patient too! But, forget it, I won't say anymore. The more I talk, the more you criticize me."

Ye Beixiu smiled and said, "My dear, I'm not talking about you. I'm just worried about you and don't want you to be too distracted."

"You also said that you are worried about me now, because you are worried about our baby.

I think you don’t have me in your heart at all.”

Ye Beixiu was so angry at Zhang Juexia's words that he smiled helplessly, "My wife, is it any use for me to worry about the baby in your belly?

I don't want to make him anxious because I think Eryong is reliable and there's no need to worry at all.

I am worried about your health. I am telling you, don’t blame me, you…”

Ye Beixiu made Zhang Juexia so angry that he didn't know what to say. Zhang Juexia turned his head away and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

Ye Beixiu really loves Zhang Juexia. In his heart, no one can surpass Zhang Juexia. Seeing that she is really angry, he knows that some things will only make things worse if he explains them, so he simply doesn't explain.

Although Zhang Juexia was angry, she was clear-headed. She was waiting for Ye Beixiu to coax her, but she waited and waited and he didn't come.

Just as he was about to find a step to go down, Qin Eryong was brought into the house by Yang Zhi.

Zhang Juexia was shocked, "Eryong, you're back."

She nudged Ye Beixiu again with her elbow, "Hey, Eryong is back."

Ye Beixiu nodded in agreement, "I guessed it from the voice just now. Eryong, you're finally here, otherwise, your sister-in-law would have gone to look for him herself."

Qin Eryong knew that Ye Beixiu's words were a joke, but he still felt warm in his heart.

Zhang Juexia didn't care about anything else. She asked Qin Eryong, "Is everything going well?"

Qin Eryong nodded in response, and then he found a banknote from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Juexia, "Sister-in-law, this is the banknote."

Zhang Juexia took the banknote and said happily, "Eryong, you are really capable. You have earned two thousand taels of silver in such a short time."

Ye Beixiu took the banknote from Zhang Juexia and looked at it carefully in the candlelight. "Eryong, your sister-in-law is right. You are indeed capable."

Qin Eryong felt a little embarrassed when he was praised, and he quickly replied, "Brother Beixiu, sister-in-law, please stop teasing me.

I just exchanged the recipe for silver, and anyone can do it."

Zhang Juexia shook his head, "Eryong, don't be so modest, there's a lot of knowledge involved here!

If it had been someone else, things might have gone wrong.”

As she spoke, she took out a silver note from the side of the table and handed it to Qin Eryong.

Qin Eryong took it and looked at Zhang Juexia in shock, "Sister-in-law, what is this?"

Zhang Juexia explained, "This is a reward for you, just accept it!"

The silver note in Qin Eryong's hand suddenly felt hot. He had just said that he just ran an errand and did not need any reward at all.

"Sister-in-law, I can't accept this one hundred taels of silver."

"You think it's too little?"

Qin Eryong shook his head repeatedly, "Sister-in-law, you misunderstood.

It’s not that it’s too little, but that the money feels too hot to handle.

You pay me on time every month and provide a place for me and Yulan to live.

The recipe was provided by my sister-in-law, I was just running errands.

If my sister-in-law insists on giving me money, then she is looking down on me, Qin Eryong."

Zhang Juexia said that she had no such intention, and that she gave Qin Eryong the silver because he deserved it.

Qin Eryong insisted not to.

When the two of them were about to get into a fight over the money, Ye Beixiu stood up and said, "I think you two should stop arguing.

Since Eryong doesn't want this silver, my lady, you can keep it.

Eryong will continue to work with you in the future, and you won’t have many opportunities to give him money.”

Qin Eryong nodded in agreement, "Sister-in-law, Brother Bei Xiu is right, you should quickly take back the banknote!"

After saying that, he was about to leave.

Zhang Juexia stopped him again, "Why are you running? If you don't want it, I won't give it to you.

You haven't told me what happened yet!"

Qin Eryong told Zhang Juexia the whole story in detail without any embellishment.

After listening to Qin Eryong's words, Zhang Juexia seemed to realize that Zhao Fulai might really need the prescription.

They didn't seem to have thought about whether the recipe was authentic.

Alas, she sighed, these people's minds are really interesting.

She instructed Qin Eryong, "Eryong, tell the people keeping an eye on Wang Xingwang not to relax and see when he leaves Shunhe County.

Remember, we must make sure that Wang Xingwang has left Shunhe County before we withdraw our troops.

Qin Eryong didn't think about why he should do this, and nodded in response.

"Go back and have a good night's sleep. I'll have Lin Yuan take you back to the manor tomorrow morning.

Eryong, it’s best if the driver you brought with you doesn’t show up in Shunhe County recently.

Just stay in the village and be content."

Qin Eryong nodded obediently.

He understood that Zhang Juexia made this arrangement for his own good, but he didn't know why he was so cautious.
