Chapter 483: Understand Me Best

"Mother, I'm really not cold. A man can't be as delicate as a girl." Cheng Ruize said with a smile.

"You are not in your normal state now." Li said angrily, "You are not fully recovered from your illness yet, so you need to be more careful. Come with me to the warm room and sit for a while before we talk about other things."

Li pulled Cheng Ruize towards the warm room without saying anything.

Cheng Ruize could only follow her.

"Mother, why did you come here suddenly?" Cheng Ruize handed the tea brought by Fang Hou to Li with both hands.

Li took a sip and placed it on the coffee table. Then she reached out and tapped Cheng Ruize on the forehead. "If I hadn't come, I'm afraid I wouldn't have known about such a big thing and I would have almost never seen my Ze'er."

"Mother... you know everything?" Cheng Ruize touched his nose a little embarrassedly, "It's just the people below talking nonsense, it's not that dangerous. Look, I'm fine now, right? Just relax, mother."

"It's a good thing that you are fine now, otherwise I would not let those people under you off one by one!"

Li said angrily, "I really don't know whether to say your subordinates are loyal or disloyal. If they are disloyal, no one dares to disobey your orders. If they are loyal, no one has reported back on such a big matter."

"If I hadn't heard from Madam Zhang today that Doctor Qin had been saying in the city that our Cheng family was bullying others and that evil masters raised evil slaves, I would have been curious and asked what was going on. That's how I found out that you were poisoned."

"You are really amazing. When such a big thing happened, you didn't even bother to find someone to tell your parents. It's a blessing that nothing serious happened to you. If there was something wrong, would you really make me angry to death?"

The more Li spoke, the sadder she became, with tears streaming down her face.

"It's my fault. I made my mother worry." Cheng Ruize apologized quickly.

"Since you know I'm worried, you're not allowed to do this again in the future." Li frowned as she spoke, "Pah, pah, pah, you won't encounter this kind of thing again in the future..."

This childish behavior made Cheng Ruize laugh. He sat down next to Li and stretched out his hand to massage her shoulders. "Mother, you have traveled for such a long time. You must be tired. Where is father?"

"Your father has been in the capital and hasn't come back yet. I heard about this but didn't have time to write a letter to your father, so I came here first." Li wiped the tears from her face and said lovingly, "I was full of thoughts when I came here. Now that I see that you are okay, I feel relieved."

"I just got to the courtyard and asked the servants. I found out the whole story. Zhu Ankang deserved what he got. Manager Zhuang really saved your life. You should thank him."

"Don't worry, mother. I have asked Fang Hou to send a thank-you gift." Cheng Ruize said with a smile, "It's just that the shopkeeper of this village has been refusing, so he only sent some ordinary things."

"How can that be possible?" Li frowned. "You are the third young master of our Cheng family. If you only give me some ordinary things, how can I thank you for saving my life?"

Li looked up and called out to the outside, "Qingyu, come here."

A little girl with a round face came in through the curtain, "Madam."

"Go and ask Fang Hou where the shopkeeper Zhuang who saved the Third Young Master lives, what his hobbies are, and who is in his family. Take a look at the specific situation and pick out some good and useful things to send to him."

"Remember, the shopkeeper of this village is Ze'er's savior, so you need to be careful when choosing things." Li emphasized.

"Yes." Qingyu agreed, lifted the curtain and went out to look for Fanghou.

"Mother, there's really no need. The shopkeeper of this village doesn't care about these things, and we also have business dealings with him. I think if there is a chance in the future, it won't be too late to repay him slowly." Cheng Ruize said.

"Silly child, it's up to the other party to refuse, but whether to send gifts is our own business. Your mother shouldn't have to teach you such a simple truth."

Li smiled and said, "It's your own business to go and thank you. It would have been fine if I didn't know about this before, but now that I know about it, there's no reason for me not to go."

"Besides, since you really want to thank Shopkeeper Zhuang, this is also a very good excuse."

Indeed, it’s a good excuse.

If someone else delivered the gifts, even if Zhuang Qingning wanted to refuse, he couldn't do it completely and would have to accept some of it more or less.

When Zhuang Qingning refused to accept the thank-you gift before, Cheng Ruize felt somewhat uneasy, but now he finally felt a little relieved.

only……

According to Li's personality, she usually likes gold and silver things the most. I'm afraid that when she sends gifts to Zhuang Qingning this time, these are also the things? When Cheng Ruize thought of this, he couldn't help but hold his forehead.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Although it looks a bit tacky, it is actually quite simple and unpretentious.

"Yes, mother is very thoughtful." Cheng Ruize smiled and took Li's arm. "Speaking of this shopkeeper Zhuang, I just made a deal with him today."

"Oh? What kind of business did my Ze'er negotiate?" Li tilted her head with interest and smiled, "Let me guess first, is it a big business, and can it help your eldest brother and second brother's business in Yangzhou?"

"Mother is really amazing. She guessed it right at once." Cheng Ruize said with a smile, "Shopkeeper Zhuang came today and brought the recipe for Ban Yue Xiang. We agreed that this Ban Yue Xiang will be made by our Chengji. From now on, the profits will be divided into three parts for Shopkeeper Zhuang and seven parts for Chengji."

"I just tried this Ban Yue Xiang. The fragrance is excellent, just like what is described in the book. It should be correct. I will write a letter to my elder brother and second brother later. The formula of Ban Yue Xiang will also be handed over to the incense master to make. Once the finished product is made, it will be sent to Yangzhou immediately to see if it can help my elder brother and second brother's business in Yangzhou to open up a gap."

"Yeah, not bad." Li nodded approvingly, "Ze'er is becoming more and more capable."

"It's also because of my parents' good teachings that I've learned from them." Cheng Ruize chuckled, "It's almost noon now, and my mother is in a hurry to get on the road. I'm afraid she must be hungry. I'll tell the kitchen to prepare lunch. How about making her favorite fried spring rolls?"

"Then I'll listen to you." Li smiled and said, "When I came here, I was worried that you had been ill for so many days and your appetite must be poor, so I brought the cook with me. I will make your favorite pickled goose and eight-treasure soup later."

"Just now I was thinking about the taste of pickled goose, and was thinking about whether to go to Hanfenglou to buy some to eat. Coincidentally, my mother brought the cook here." Upon hearing this, Cheng Ruize couldn't help but act coquettishly, "My mother still understands me the best."
