Xia Chen opened the door curtain, her hair and clothes were slightly wet.
"Is it raining? It's my fault. I was so busy teaching the cicadas to write that I didn't notice it was raining."
Seeing the man's self-blaming face, Xia Chen smiled and said, "I'm not made of paper. I got damaged by such a little rain. It started to rain when I was almost at the door of my house, and it wasn't heavy. You didn't notice it."
"Is everything done?"
"Well, this batch of goods has been taken back. I heard from Boss Su that it was ordered by a merchant in Beijing."
"It seems that his business is getting bigger and bigger." Xia Jinjun said sincerely, but there was still a little sour feeling in his heart.
His mountain will still be bare in autumn, and he doesn't know how many years it will take for those saplings to grow. He can't rush this matter.
"Yes, I heard Young Master Su shouting that he wanted to open a shop in the capital. Although the child is young, he has his own ideas." Xia Chen glanced at the little girl, and her beautiful eyes were full of Xia Zhiliao's image.
"Mom, let's follow the old rules. If they want to open the business, we will continue to cooperate with them, and you can continue to invest in the technology." Xia Zhiliao said. If it were in the past, the couple would not understand, but after spending more time together, they also understood what their daughter meant.
"I would like to, but I'm afraid it won't work this time." Xia Chen sighed, "The Jinyifang in the county has only been open for a short time. It's in the capital. If you want to open a shop of similar size, I heard from Boss Su that it would cost more than a thousand taels."
"Boss Su can't come up with so much money at the moment. I want to help, but... I don't have that much money, not even half of it." Xia Chen said with a wry smile.
Xia Jinjun also sighed deeply, "It's a pity that the family is in need of money right now. The fourth child is getting married. Jinxiu's shop was opened by the child's aunt Lei, who contributed money and effort. It's not easy for us to ask for money."
Xia Chen patted his arm and said, "I understand. This is what Young Master Su said. Boss Su also thinks that this is a big step. We are unfamiliar with the capital, so it's not easy. This may not be successful. Let's not worry about it."
[It has to be done. It has to be done. Su Mingche is a business genius. He is going to open a shop in the capital. He will definitely be able to make money.]
Xia Jinjun and Xia Chen heard it, but unfortunately there was nothing they could do about the money.
My family can’t afford it, let alone those relatives who I haven’t visited for years.
After Xia Jinjun's father passed away, the Xia family had a hard time. The two aunts who married far away had different personalities from the old lady. She said that, but in fact, she didn't want them to ask for money, so they hadn't visited for many years.
Xia Jinjun didn't think about it that way.
[This is a great opportunity to make a fortune, I can't miss it, it seems I have to find a way. ]
Xia Jinjun almost blurted out, "What can a little girl like you do?", but she held it back.
"Mom, I'm going to go play with my brothers!"
Xia Chen hurriedly stopped him, "It's raining outside, you're weak, don't get wet in the rain!"
Xia Zhiliao looked down at her bulging belly and her cheeks, which were all fleshy when pinched. "Mom, please take a good look at me. Am I still weak?"
Xia Chen was stunned for a moment, "Then don't go out. It's not good to get caught in the rain."
Xia Zhiliao stuck her head out, and the heavens were helping her, "Mom, look, the rain has stopped."
Xia Chen sighed, "Okay, okay, go ahead, but why are you going to look for your brothers?"
They don’t have any money either! Xia Chen wanted to ask, but she didn’t.
Xia Zhiliao walked out of the back door without looking back. It should be said that Ling He was very strict with Xia Jiang and the others. They did not stop even when it was just a little drizzle. These guys were able to endure hardship. Compared to doing nothing now, having enough food to eat, warm clothes to wear, and being able to practice martial arts, it was not hardship at all in their opinion.
"Sister!" Xia Jiang shouted.
Xia He and Xia Hai were also very excited, but Ling He kept a straight face and said, "You guys continue."
Ling He walked towards Xia Zhiliao with a smile on his face, "Girl Zhiliao, what delicious food have you brought us again?"
Xia Zhiliao never came empty-handed, firstly because he felt sorry for his brothers, and secondly because he felt that it was very hard for Ling He to teach them martial arts seriously.
Xia Zhiliao smiled, then walked in front with her hands behind her back. Ling He also noticed that the little girl's hands were empty, with nothing in them. What happened?
"Zhi Liao, what's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Xia Zhiliao nodded, found a big rock and sat down, with his chin resting on his little fleshy hand, looking so adorable no matter how you looked at him.
Ling He frowned. Who would dare to bully the little girl Zhiliao? She was not only the darling of the Xia family, but also the darling of his master, and naturally his as well.
"Who bullied you? Tell Uncle Ling and I will avenge you right away."
Xia Zhiliao's eyes lit up, and seeing Ling He's confident look, he smiled, "Really?"
"Of course. Tell me who it is and I'll go right away." Ling He vowed.
"Then why don't you go to Beijing to find Brother Xie?"
"My master doesn't need to do anything, I can do it." Ling He said.
Xia Zhiliao shook his head and sighed, "Uncle Ling, what I mean is that your master bullied me, and you want to help me get revenge, right? Then go and beat him up!"
"Ah?" Ling He was stunned. "My master bullied you? Doesn't he love you enough? It's too... He gave you everything his grandmother rewarded him with."
"Give it to me? Where is it? Why can't I see it?" Xia Zhiliao sneered softly. She just showed no expression at all towards Qiheng.
I helped him win the Queen Mother's protection this time, he is too stingy.
Ling He smiled and said, "It's on the way. It should be delivered in two days."
Xia Zhiliao looked into his eyes. If that was the case, then it was perfect timing. The reward from the Queen Mother must be at least one thousand taels of silver, maybe even ten thousand taels!
"Is this true? Uncle Ling, you're not lying to me, are you?"
Ling He then realized that the little girl's unhappiness just now was probably because her master did not express it. The master really understood this little girl, just like the worm in her stomach.
"Why would I lie to you? Can't you just wait?"
Xia Zhiliao couldn't help but laugh out loud, "He is sensible."
Xia Zhiliao came closer, "Uncle Ling, do you know what they are?"
"Oh, this... I really don't know. Anyway, my master said... you will definitely need it."
"Is it necessary?" Xia Zhiliao took a deep breath. What she needed most now was money!
"Was it really all given by Brother Xie's grandmother?" Xia Zhiliao asked again.
Ling He nodded, "That's right."
[It must be a treasure. Even if it isn't, it can be exchanged for a lot of money. ]
"Uncle Ling, I'll go get you something delicious right away!" Xia Zhiliao left happily.
Ling He knew that the little girl was coaxed into happiness.
Xia Hai asked with a playful smile: "Master, does Brother Xie want a lot of money from my sister? How much is it?"
"Money? What money? It's not money."
"But my sister wants money!" Xia He said, shaking his stiff neck.
