Seeing that she was very happy, Su Yujiao asked tentatively, "This news is very useful to you. Can you let me meet them?"
Qingmei thought about it and nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll take you there tomorrow morning."
After hearing this, Su Yujiao felt delighted.
She looked up at the sky, wishing it would get brighter soon, but it was only the second watch and it was still very early for dawn.
"The weather is getting colder. I need to take the cotton-padded clothes I made." Su Yujiao turned and walked into the house. "Qiuzhi, bring the thread basket over. I need to make my husband's belt."
There are not many opportunities to meet each other, and this time it is an opportunity that she has finally fought for, so she cherishes it especially.
After Qiuzhi brought the thread basket, she sat in front of the candlelight and made a belt stitch by stitch, embroidering beautiful patterns on it.
In the small courtyard, Jiang Mengli was cutting medicinal herbs with a dull expression, like a humanoid machine.
These medicinal herbs were all taken out from the space. Not only did Jiang need the medicine, He Yu also needed it.
Lingqiao glanced at her and sighed slightly, "Miss, go to sleep. Let me do the cutting. Judging from the moonlight, there should be sunshine tomorrow. You can take these herbs out to dry."
Jiang Mengli was pulled back to his senses by her voice and said, "I have a bad feeling in my heart. Do you think Master Bai will stop cooperating with me?"
"Although Bai Chenhuan is the head of the Bai family, he is still a businessman. He would never want to offend a powerful prince."
I had been thinking about this problem before, which is why I looked dull and worried.
"So that's what you're worried about, young lady." Lingqiao poured a cup of tea and handed it to her. "It's not necessary to have him. We can change the owner. As long as our products are good, we don't have to worry about no one wanting them."
After hearing this, Jiang Mengli also felt that this made sense.
Who doesn't like making money? These businessmen are all shrewd people. If the Bai family is gone, there are still the Zhao, Qian, Sun and Li families.
"That makes sense." Jiang Mengli drank the tea and put down the knife. "Finish cutting the rest and then take a break. I'll go take a shower and go to bed first. I'll go to Miaoxiangzhai again tomorrow."
You still have to find out whether you can continue to cooperate. If you can, that would be the best. If not, it would be better to find another way out as soon as possible.
After leaving the pharmacy, she couldn't help cursing, "You bastard, worse than pigs and dogs, the biggest ungrateful wolf in the world, your heart is smaller than the tip of a needle..."
She cursed out everything she could, and even regretted meeting Wen Mohan, that bastard.
When she reached the bedroom door, a familiar voice suddenly called her, "Master, Master..."
It was He Yu who called her from inside the room. There was a room between the two of them, and the room in the middle was where Liu Ma and Ling Qiao lived.
She pushed the door open and walked in, lighting the candle. "What's wrong?"
He Yu was lying on the bed, her face as pale as paper, looking very haggard. "I deserved to be beaten. Don't go to His Royal Highness Prince Yu."
"He is a powerful person. Ordinary people like us cannot afford to offend him. If you go to him, you will definitely suffer."
Just now he heard her cursing, and without thinking, he knew that she was cursing His Royal Highness Prince Yu, so he thought of talking to her about this.
Jiang Mengli heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. "Huh... I thought you were feeling unwell somewhere, but it turns out you're talking about this."
"Don't worry, I won't have a head-on conflict with him. I'll stay away from him when I see him next time, and if I want to beat him up, I'll do it secretly."
He Yu: “…”
Jiang Mengli covered him with the quilt and said, "Go to bed early. I'm going to sleep too."
As he said this, he yawned and turned to walk out of the room.
…
Su Yujiao got up after only an hour of sleep, packed a large bag of things, and got into the carriage despite looking exhausted.
After the carriage had traveled halfway down the street, Qingmei took out a piece of cloth and blindfolded her, preventing Qiuzhi from following.
Su Yujiao felt that this road was very long and she was a little restless. She really wanted to open her eyes to see which direction she was going.
"Ms. Qingmei, is it the same place this time?" She couldn't help but ask.
Qingmei responded calmly, "It's the same place, but we'll move them to a better location today. I told you last night."
"If you can complete all the tasks assigned by His Majesty, you and your husband will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life, and you will even have a large courtyard to live in."
Su Yujiao didn't say anything. She didn't care about these things. She just wanted her child and husband to be safe.
As the saying goes, serving the king is like serving a tiger. You may not enjoy any happiness at that time, but you may be easily abandoned by him.
After an unknown amount of time, the carriage finally stopped. The surroundings were very quiet, without the bustling sounds of the street.
Even after getting off the carriage, he was still helped inside and his mask was not taken off.
"We're here." Qingmei stopped with her and took off the mask. "Go in by yourself."
Su Yujiao rubbed her eyes before walking in with her bag.
At this moment, her husband was sitting on a stone bench reading a book, but his eyes were staring blankly at one place, motionless, with his little finger wrapped.
My son was digging a small hole in the ground and his hands were covered with mud.
Su Yujiao looked at his bandaged finger and felt a slight pang of pain in her nose. "Husband! Ling'er!"
The father and son looked up at the same time, stunned in disbelief.
She immediately ran over and threw herself into Chen Yuanzhan's arms and started crying, "Wuwu...Husband, I'm sorry. It was me who caused you to lose your finger."
Chen Yuanzhan was a man of good learning. Although his family used to be in business, he always wanted to pass the imperial examinations and achieve something.
After all, merchants are of relatively low status, and no matter how rich they are, they cannot hold their heads up in front of officials.
However, the Dasheng Dynasty had a regulation that disabled people were not allowed to take the imperial examinations, even if they were missing a finger.
"It's okay." Chen Yuanzhan forced a smile to comfort him, "I actually haven't wanted to take the civil service exam for a long time. It doesn't matter whether I have a finger missing or not."
At this time, Qingmei's voice came from outside, urging her to hurry up as time was limited.
Su Yujiao didn't dare to delay any longer, wiped her tears and said: "No matter what you become, I will always stay by your side and never leave you."
As she spoke, she opened the bundle, revealing a new cotton-padded jacket.
Chen Ling also ran over at this time, "Mom, you finally came to see us again. There are bad guys who caught Daddy. They pinned him to the ground and cut off his fingers."
As he spoke, he pursed his lips and tears fell. He must have been very scared when he saw all this.
Su Yujiao's throat choked with sobs as she wiped away his tears. "It's okay. The bad guys have been driven away. Don't be afraid. Mother has brought you new clothes. Try them on quickly."
The cotton-padded jacket is intentionally made a little bigger so that I can wear it again next year.
Chen Ling looked at the clothes on his body and danced with joy.
Chen Yuanzhan also tried the clothes and belt, and they were actually a little loose. She knew it was because he had hurt her, "It's a little too big..."
"It won't affect you." Chen Yuanzhan smiled and reassured him, "You can wear clothes underneath in winter, so it's just right."
