Chapter 1197 Suitable
Zhao Shu suddenly came to his senses and said with a smile: "But I was so happy that I lost my mind. Uncle Qing, you are right. That's it."
Aunt Qing smiled and shook her head after hearing this, and then took care of the housework with a loving look on her face.
She didn't quite understand what her husband and the young master were planning.
The young master wanted to find someone to cooperate with so that he could go back for revenge and make his master and that vicious woman angry to death. However, there were so many powerful officials in the capital city, so why did he have to go to such great lengths to get to know this small official of the fifth rank?
This Lord Shao is indeed lucky and has a great reputation, but he is still a minor official! He has no background and no strength. I really don't know why they like him.
Aunt Qing said that she really couldn't understand it at all!
But even if she didn't understand, the decision made by her old man and son would definitely not be wrong. She just needed to believe this.
They were so happy to have gotten the job done, so she was happy for them too.
Aunt Qing naturally didn't understand. Uncle Qing and Zhao Shu specially sent people to Yuzhang and Heshan counties to investigate Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan. They knew their abilities and believed in their character, so they were naturally willing to cooperate with them instead of others.
There are so many powerful people in the capital, but so what? Which of these people looks down on merchants? Which of them doesn't treat merchants as fat sheep?
If you really want them to help you do something, you have to pay ten times, dozens of times the price, or even more.
To cooperate with them is to open yourself up to them to be exploited and drained of your blood. Sooner or later, you will be doomed.
Lord Shao and Mrs. Shao are different.
Besides, Lord Shao now has the support of the Eastern Palace, so he is also a powerful person. Isn't he much better than others?
When Shao Yunduan met the prince, he casually mentioned this matter and asked the prince to go to Yangzhou to investigate Zhao Shu, the son of the Zhao family, the richest man in Yangzhou.
The prince did not take it seriously, but he was happy to do Shao Yunduan a favor, and was very happy that Shao Yunduan was willing to ask him for help when he encountered problems.
This is what we call real family!
We had just started checking when Zhao Shu's New Year gift arrived.
Uncle Qing and Aunt Qing brought people to deliver the gifts personally. It wasn't a very valuable item for the Zhao family, but it was a thoughtful gesture.
There were a cavity of slaughtered and cleaned lambs, two pairs of live chickens, two pairs of live ducks, a pair of slaughtered and properly processed geese, a pair of hams, and some snacks, candies, and candied fruits. The most valuable thing was a small basket of fresh vegetables such as garlic sprouts, celery, coriander, bok choy, lettuce, etc., which no one knew where they got from.
In winter, ordinary people in the capital city have only cabbage and radish to eat, as well as green onions, winter melons, old pumpkins stored in each household, and lotus roots, yams, taro, etc. that are not very fresh and shipped from other places. Fresh green vegetables are not available.
Firstly, I can’t afford it, and secondly, even if I want to grit my teeth and buy some to satisfy my craving, I can’t buy it.
Only extremely wealthy families might have greenhouses to grow some fresh vegetables, but no one else could.
Seeing these juicy green vegetables with a fresh and refreshing smell, Qiao Xuan's eyes lit up and she was very happy.
There are fresh vegetables in her space, but it is useless to eat them. This can finally satisfy her craving.
She could even secretly take some out of the space and add them in. Shao Yunduan didn't care about such things, and Lixia and Liqiu wouldn't notice it either.
If Zhao Shu gave them gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, or curios, Qiao Xuan would definitely refuse them.
