Little Bell ran happily to the backyard holding the banknote.
I have to say, being a doctor is really profitable. Look, it’s only been a short while and he has earned five hundred taels.
All those herbs together were worth only over twenty taels of silver. It was really easy to make money.
When she arrived at the backyard, as expected, Jiang Xinian had not gone to rest at all. Instead, he was sitting under the porch, making tea with a water bag that he had taken from Xiao Lingdang at some point.
Xiao Lingling happily came over and handed the banknote to Jiang Xinian.
"Master, here, Mr. Fang is very rich. He gave me five hundred taels."
Jiang Xinian didn't even raise his eyelids. "Keep it for yourself. How can you be considered rich? You haven't seen a truly rich person yet."
Compared to them, this is just a drizzle. This Lord Fang can be considered relatively honest, and these five hundred taels are already a lot for him. "
Little Lingdang didn't bother to be polite with her master. She stuffed the banknotes into her arms and asked curiously, "More honest?"
Jiang Xi laughed young, "Of course, he can only be considered relatively honest. In this capital, a truly honest official can't get by.
Especially someone like him who has no foundation will only be ostracized.
Therefore, being a little greedy will help you get along with everyone.
In short, the officialdom is a huge quagmire. Once you enter, don't even think about leaving cleanly! "
This is also the reason why Jiang Xinian looks down on dignitaries so much.
He doesn't hate rich people, after all, he himself is a real rich man.
However, there are hundreds of ways to make money, and he only looks down on those rich people whose sources are unknown.
Therefore, he always kills such people the most cruelly!
Xiao Lingling didn't understand the officialdom, but she believed that her master would not speak without purpose, so she nodded as if she understood.
"Then Master, do we have to tell the Emperor about this poisonous insect as well?"
Jiang Xinian frowned when he heard this.
To be honest, he really didn't like to get involved in these things, but since the matter involved his eldest disciple's mother, he couldn't really just stand by and watch.
So, I could only nod in distress.
"They say they will tell you, but how they investigate is their own business. Starting tomorrow, I will go to the palace by myself. I have arranged a good place for you to train.
Take advantage of these few days to practice well. If you pass, you will get a reward."
Little Bell's eyes lit up, "Really? What kind of training? I can go right now!"
Jiang Xinian poked her chubby cheek and said, "It's so late today, why are you going out? Wait until tomorrow. I'll have someone take you there tomorrow!"
Xiao Lingling was not angry. She had been running all day and didn't want to move, so she obediently made Jiang Xinian a pot of tea and took the water bag to the yard where her parents lived.
As soon as I entered, I was dumbfounded.
There were servants standing in a circle in the middle yard, and the parents in the middle were learning etiquette from a nanny.
They are now learning how to drink tea. There are some differences between the movements of men and women. The nanny is asking a steward to demonstrate the movements, and Lin Feng is watching very carefully.
Little Lingling watched curiously for a while. She thought it looked pretty good when others did it, but when it came to her father, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Everything is right, but it just feels awkward.
Moreover, she saw a bit of embarrassment in her father's eyes.
No, I have to run. Otherwise, if I get caught, will I have to learn it too?
It’s scary just thinking about it!
Little Lingling didn't hesitate at all, she bent down and walked out. When she was almost at the door, Lin Feng saw her little tail.
"Little Bell, are you back? Come here and let Daddy see..."
It would have been fine if he hadn't made a sound, because as soon as he made a sound, the little bell disappeared without a trace with a whoosh.
Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, feeling very embarrassed.
The nanny had a look of knowingness on her face. "Master Lin, please hold on a little longer. We will soon finish learning how to drink tea. You can rest today after you finish. We will learn the rest tomorrow."
Lin Feng withdrew his hand awkwardly, "Haha, I, I really seemed to see my little girl just now, or maybe I was mistaken, I was mistaken."
Fang tried so hard to hold back her laughter that she almost burst into tears.
Little Bell patted her chest and said, "Phew~ That was a close call! Daddy actually saw me? But I ran so fast, he definitely couldn't see clearly! Since no one saw us, I can just deny it.
Hey, I didn’t expect there would be so many rules to learn. Looking at it this way, I’m still happy living in Shuanghe Village~~~"
Little Lingling was so happy after escaping from the etiquette teaching that she jumped all the way back to her yard.
Maybe she was tired from running, or maybe it was because she hadn't rested well in the past few days, so she didn't go to the front yard for dinner. Instead, she asked Xing'er to bring the food back. After eating a little in her own yard, she felt drowsy and wanted to sleep.
In the middle of the night, two figures were hidden in the darkness on a big tree outside Xiaolingdang's yard.
"Master, if you want to come and see Little Bell, why do you have to be so sneaky?"
"My identity is sensitive now, and this is the capital, so it's always right to be cautious."
"Okay, here are the lotus crisps and crispy chicken you requested. They're both here, and they're still hot."
"Well, you go back first, I'll go back by myself later."
"Okay, I'll withdraw first."
......
Soon, the window of Xiao Lingling's room was quietly opened and a figure jumped in.
He first came to the bedside, and seeing Xiao Lingling sleeping soundly, he curled his lips and smiled.
He took out the lotus crisps and crispy chicken he brought from the food box and placed them on the table beside him.
Then he brought the crispy chicken to the bedside and fanned the fragrant aroma onto the bed.
The next moment, little Bell suddenly smacked her lips twice, as if she didn't get the food she wanted. She sat up drowsily and rubbed her eyes.
There was only one candle left in the room because it was inconvenient for Little Lingling to get up at night.
Now, with the help of the dim light, she could see the person in front of her clearly, and her eyes lit up, "Brother Yu? Why are you here?"
Qin Yu raised the crispy chicken in his hand and said, "I'll bring you something delicious."
"Ah! Chicken! It smells so good!"
Little Lingling went to bed early today and ate little for dinner, so her stomach was empty now. When she saw the delicious food, she naturally couldn't help but feel greedy and raised her hand to grab it.
Qin Yu took the crispy chicken and placed it on the table. "Go wash your hands first. The chicken is still hot."
Xiao Lingling lifted the quilt, quickly put on her slippers, and went to the basin to wash her hands hastily. She then directly pulled off a chicken leg.
She handed it to Qin Yu and said, "Here, let's eat together."
"Okay, let's eat together." Qin Yu was slightly stunned, but still took it.
