Chapter 481: Save as Much as You Can

After meeting Xiao Yan, Lu Qiniang waited for news at home.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no exact time when Xiao Yan was exiled.

It's really worrying.

Doctor Hu scolded Lu Qiniang, "Why, don't you want to stay in the capital for a few more days? Wouldn't it be better if I could let you go later?"

"Isn't it because I can't see Xiao Yan that I feel uneasy?" Lu Qiniang sighed and turned to ask him, "Old Hu, do you really want to go to Qiongzhou with me?"

"The house has been sold, and you ask me if it's true?" Doctor Hu said unhappily.

"Then..." Lu Qiniang asked, "Can I bring Si Ya with me?"

Looking at the little girl every day, she really can't bear to leave her.

I also feel that if Si Ya stays, it will add burden to Daya.

"I'm a doctor, not a god," Doctor Hu cursed. "She's so young. If she gets sick, I'm afraid I won't be able to take any medicine. You should wait until you get there, find out the local situation, and stabilize it. Then, when she's older, consider taking her over."

"Oh." Lu Qiniang didn't dare to say anything.

Yes, Doctor Hu was right, she was overthinking it.

"Here," Doctor Hu placed the medicine on the table. "Drink it once a day for seven days and it will be almost effective."

This is a medicine to stop milk production.

I can't endure any more pain on the way to Qiongzhou.

But Lu Qinniang was reluctant to let her go. "I'll feed her for a few more days. I can't bear to leave Si Ya."

"Don't you have a wet nurse?" Doctor Hu said unhappily, "Why, drinking someone else's milk won't make you grow up?"

"No," Lu Qiniang said, "It's time to save and spend. Xiao Yan hasn't made any move yet."

A wet nurse earned two taels of silver a month, and also had to be provided with food.

Our family situation is not as good as before, so we try to save as much as possible.

Moreover, Lu Qiniang was also thinking about feeding Si Ya for a few more days.

It seems that in this way, there will be more bonds between mother and daughter.

Doctor Hu glared at her and said, "A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Don't be so stingy. You'll end up exhausting yourself. Do you think Xiao Yan will find someone else?"

"Don't look down on me, Xiao Yan is not that kind of person!"

Lu Qiniang argued with him for a while and then accepted the medicine.

She still had a lot of things to do before leaving.

For example, the shops at the dock will be reopened.

As for the general merchandise shop and Erya's rouge shop, since they cost too much, I'm afraid we'll have to wait and see about it later.

Lu Qiniang also told Chang Hui to find another job and stop waiting.

He has managed Sihai so well that he has already gained a great reputation. Now many employers are willing to pay a large sum of money to poach him.

Lu Qiniang told him to go wherever he wanted.

If anyone was to blame anyone, they were the ones who wronged Chang Hui. They had promised him the job of head shopkeeper for a few years, but he hadn't even been there for a year...

Chang Hui agreed on the surface, but in fact he never found other work.

Lu Qiniang was also moved when she thought about it.

I just hope that he and Erya can find someone as good as each other in the future.

Damn it!

"I'm back!"

Yun Ting's voice came from the yard, still as lively as before.

"Why, do we have to line up to welcome the County Magistrate?" Erya rolled her eyes at him. "Why are you back again? Have you dealt with all the backlog?"

"There's nothing behind us." Yun Ting came over to see Si Ya as soon as he entered the room, "Give me a hug."

"My sister is asleep, don't be naughty." Erya slapped his hand away.

Lu Qiniang scolded with a smile: "If he wants to hug me, then let him hug me. He likes it too. Look how powerful you are. Yunting, how long will you stay this time?"

"You'll have to go back after two or three days," Yun Ting said. "I'm mainly back to visit my grandmother and my maternal grandmother and take care of some things. Then, when you go to Qiongzhou, I'll come back to see you off."

"No, just go ahead and do your thing."

"I'm coming back." Yun Ting said, "I got a white deer. Do you want to see it?"

White deer are considered auspicious.

Yun Ting also spent a lot of money to buy it and brought it to them specially to see.

Lu Qiniang smiled and said, "Then we have to follow and broaden our horizons."

Yun Ting had a cage brought in. Inside lay a snow-white deer with smooth fur. Under the shadow of the cage, its fur was faintly glowing, as warm as jade.

"It's really beautiful." Lu Qiniang praised sincerely, "Wouldn't this be worth a hundred taels of silver?"

wrong.

Before, a wild boar could be sold to Yun Ting for twenty taels, so this deer should be worth two hundred taels.

"I'm embarrassed to give two hundred taels of silver to my grandmother," Yun Ting said, "I spent one thousand taels."

Lu Qi Niang: “…”

Arya reached out and touched the white deer, "Let's also get some good luck. I hope we will have good fortune in the future."

San Ya said, "I don't know if white deer meat tastes better than other deer meat."

Daya went out shopping, so she is not at home at the moment.

"Since it's for the Empress Dowager, send it there quickly." Lu Qiniang urged Yun Ting.

"That's right," Erya said. "You always managed to get something for nothing before, but this time you're trying to catch a wolf without sacrificing your child. Tell me, what do you want from the Queen Mother?"

"Zhuozhuo still understands me." Yun Ting laughed. "It's nothing. Since you've all seen it, I'll go into the palace first. Zhuozhuo and Jiaojiao, don't go out tomorrow. I have plans."

"Why are you still beating around in circles? What are your plans? Why can't you tell me now?" Erya said.

"Don't say it, don't say it. I'm leaving!"

Yun Ting rushed into the palace and left without staying long.

Seeing that he and Erya were getting along just like before and didn't seem to be affected at all, Lu Qinniang breathed a sigh of relief.

When talking about children's marriage, it is always easy to have worries of one kind or another.

What I worry about most is that the marriage will not go through and the relationship will be awkward.

Moreover, Yun Ting's character is childish and impulsive, which is particularly worrying.

It seems okay now.

As for Yun Ting, the Queen Mother was indeed very happy when he brought the white deer into the palace. She also ordered: "Get ready. In a few days, let the harem come to see this auspicious sign."

This is a gift from her grandson to show his filial piety to her.

Don't just say she's biased.

Isn't this mutual?

The Queen Mother dismissed the people around her and left Yun Ting to talk alone.

Arranged marriage is naturally a topic that cannot be avoided.

"Ting'er, actually, grandma is a little relieved right now. Fortunately, you are not involved in the Xiao Yan incident. I have also met Lu Huan twice and I think this girl is not bad."

"He's quite good, smart and generous." Yun Ting said, "Grandma, just let it go. I won't feel awkward anymore."

Some things should be solved by yourself so that the elderly don’t worry about them.

For the first time, the Queen Mother felt that the grandson she had watched grow up suddenly grew up, and she was a little confused.

"Grandma, I want to use my mother's dowry to tell you something." Yun Ting didn't beat around the bush.
