Chapter 300： Developed
"Except for the Lord, who else did you paint a portrait of?"
During the portrait, Uncle Qi asked casually.
Shen Ruolan was afraid of showing flaws, so she didn't dare to say that she had painted portraits for people, so she said, "I have painted pigs, dogs, chickens, ducks and geese and other poultry without painting people."
Uncle Qi's mouth twitched, and he felt that this bad girl was deliberate. He wanted to clean her up, but he couldn't bear it. Then the thought that she had painted for her fiance before she painted it, and he was happy again. She was complacent, so she forgave her for being unreasonable!
After painting all morning, the portrait was finally completed.
A handsome man, dressed in elegant white clothes, sits quietly behind the case and reads a book. His handsome face and ink-colored eyes are like a landscape ink painting, gentle and sincere, gentle as jade, just like the morning sun, so beautiful that people can’t remove their eyes.
In this painting, there is no sign of his usual evil and domineering, only endless gentleness, as if facing his beloved girl, that exquisite face, with a gentle smile, He is like a lover than usual!
Shen Ruolan was very satisfied, and Chun Yumin was also very satisfied. After standing at the front of the painting for a long time, she said leisurely: "Lan'er is really ingenious, and Huizhi Lanxin, if she is in the capital, this hand-painting technique alone is enough to be gorgeous. Jingshi, famous all over the world!"
Shen Ruolan shook!
It's Lan'er again. This is the second time he calls himself that way. Shouldn't she correct him and ask him to change his name?
Thinking about this, she turned her head and was about to express her opinion to him, but suddenly slammed into a pair of dark and deep eyes.
Shen Ruolan flicked again!
What kind of look is this? Are you still gentle and affectionate? It was like the eyes staring at each other between lovers, wouldn't he really be tempted by himself?
Thinking about this, she didn't dare to say anything to him anymore, and hurried away under the pretext of cooking him lunch.
When cooking lunch, she deeply reviewed herself, and felt that she had been walking with him too close and too frequently these days, and the interaction with him was not in accordance with the rules of this era. This era should be guarded by men and women. , But she actually forgot about it, and she told him to laugh and fight for several days, maybe because of her untimely behavior, he misunderstood that she was interesting to him.
This is not so good. I am already engaged. If he is allowed to misunderstand her, it will damage her reputation and be looked down upon by the world. In the future, it is better to have less contact with him... …
The cooking for lunch was very simple. Several dishes were made by the chef in the house. She only fried French fries. By the way, she also fried some sweet potato and pumpkin sticks. These things were delicious with tomato sauce.
During the meal, Uncle Qi ate a lot of French fries for the face. During the period, he also caught her with chopsticks and fish, which surprised Shen Ruolan so that the chopsticks almost fell to the ground.
When Chun Yujun saw her panicked, Hua Rong turned pale, the smile in her eyes grew thicker.
After dinner, Shen Ruolan got up and said goodbye. Chun Yumin told Luo Cheng to take the deeds of the three houses and hand them over to Shen Ruolan. She also asked her to live in Jizhou, which is a good place. She will like it more and more as she lives for a long time.
Shen Ruolan agreed, but she didn't have any such thoughts in her heart. When everything at home is on track, she still has to go back to the mountain village. She just likes the country’s back-to-nature, self-sufficient life, who Call her a countryman in her last life!
When I got into the cart out of Zhuangzi, Shen Ruolan found that the pearls, ginseng, clothes and quilts that she had lost before were all neatly placed in the cart. This meant returning to Zhao.
Seeing these lost and recovered things and the three house deeds that he had obtained, Shen Ruolan was not happy at all, and even felt very uneasy in her heart. Today, the look in her eyes and the attitude towards her by Master Qi, let She was very frightened, and she was basically sure now that the uncle fell in love with her, it was too scary and scary...
**
In the days that followed, Shen Ruolan was very busy. Every day she told stories to the girls waiting in the printing house, occasionally she also told Shen Youjia, and took time to go to the world to read the previous "Thirty-Six Strategies". 》How is the recovery process? Are there any remaining unmanageable problems?
What she did not expect was that those readers who had previously purchased "The Thirty-Six Strategies" did not return many books. It turned out that the ancients already had the consciousness of collecting, and many people felt that the books were banned by the officials. , It will definitely not be published again in the future. The "Thirty-Six Strategies" in their hands may become a collection or an orphan after many years.
Therefore, even though they offered the purchase price at the original price, they still refused to sell it. Some people even blocked the door of the world to buy and sell the "Thirty-Six Strategies" for the future. Can have a chance to appreciate.
The world knows the book with great fanfare for several days, not only failed to take back the sold books, but also sold hundreds of copies of the "Thirty-Six Strategies" that existed here before. It was really dumbfounding. !
Shen Ruolan is eager to do this. The less she collects, the less her loss will be. Although Master Qi said he was responsible for collecting books, how could she be embarrassed to let the family take the money to collect it? It was very interesting that people gave her the banned book order. How could she be embarrassed to take advantage of this little thing with the cheek? So from the beginning, she made up her mind to pay for the book by herself. Seeing that no one would sell the book back, she would not have to bear the loss. She was very happy!
During this period of time, the business of hot pot restaurants is getting better and better. Originally, hot pot is the only one in Jizhou. Everyone loves to eat them fresh, and now there are two more signatures such as tomatoes and cucumbers. Dishes, customers come to consume more and more. There are people eating early in the morning. It can be said that from the opening in the morning to the closing in the middle of the night, the guests are constant, and there are often tables in the middle of the lunch and evening meals. When the children are not enough, for a time, the business is good, even Baiwei people can't catch up, and they make more money!
The dim sum was sold very well, because there was always not enough to sell, Shen Dejian went to the blacksmith's shop to order three or four ovens, but even so, the dim sum made every day is still not enough to sell.
Later, after careful consideration by Shen Dejian and his wife, the two bought two small servants in the tooth shop, one fifteen, called Xiaoqi, one sixteen, called Wuzi, both of them were solid, strong and obedient. A capable young man, one person can work for several girls. After buying it back, Dad taught them hand in hand for two days, and soon let them start to work with them.
With the addition of them, the production efficiency has been greatly improved at once, and the snacks made every day can finally meet the needs of the market!
After a short break, the printing factory also started to reopen. The first book published was called "White Lady Yongzhen Leifeng Pagoda", which tells the love story of Bai Lady and Xu Xian. This is placed in modern three-year-old children. Knowing the story, it seems plain and unremarkable, but I did not expect to gain a large number of fans in this world.
Many people were deeply moved by this poignant love story. The loving couple who sympathized with Xu Xian and Bai Niangzi were torn apart. They were also ruthless, nosy, and even romantic and naive. In this script, I deliberately bought a snake to release it, in the hope that in the next life or a few lifetimes, I can have a beautiful love story with the little snake he released...
For a while, in the streets and alleys, in the teahouses of the pubs, everyone was talking about this story, and even some troupes planned to move the story to the stage and interpret the story in the form of opera!
"White Lady" also quickly replaced "Thirty-Six Strategies" and became the most popular conversation after dinner. Shen Ruolan's printing factory and Tianxia Zhizhi also obtained a huge profit as a result, and each was happy!
During this period, Shen Ruolan went to Chun Yu Min's villa again.
With the help of six talented women including Liu Hanxiang, the last eight strategies of "The Thirty-Six Strategies" have been completed. She was to send the manuscript and had to go. But she deliberately chose to go around ten o'clock in the morning. At this time, Master Qi is probably not at home, so she can avoid meeting him.
As she expected, the uncle was not there. Not only he was not there, but also some of his attendants were not there. Shen Ruolan gave the manuscript to the housekeeper and asked her to forward the manuscript to Uncle Qi.
The housekeeper's wife respectfully agreed, and she treated Shen Ruolan as respectful as her ancestors. She almost knelt down to serve her, making Shen Ruolan very uncomfortable. After a few words, she fled and left.
Chun Yumin only found out that she had come that night. He has been in the military camp for training during this period. After hearing her coming, Chun Yumin felt very sorry and regretted that he missed a chance to live with her. .
These days, even though he is in the military camp, he always thinks of her in his heart, never forgetting, no matter what he is doing, he can always think of her unknowingly, the way she sings, and the way she smiles and thinks The way she rode with him in the fields and grass, and she also missed her shy and embarrassed appearance in the rain of flowers...
Every aspect of her is so beautiful and fits his mind. It is only now that he realizes that she is no longer a kind of favored woman to him. Before she knows it, she has completely occupied him. His heart makes him hard to ignore even if he wants to ignore it.
This is really a headache and sweet thing. He was very happy. He finally met a woman he loved from the heart, but he was a little depressed. The mother and the emperor would never agree to him marrying her as a concubine. Yes, and this girl is too thoughtful and refuses to succumb to others. What a headache!
However, those are things for the future. Right now, he hasn't seen her for a few days, and he has missed her for a long time. Tomorrow, he will send Yingzhan to pick her up, saying that he has something to discuss with her, so that he can solve his love.
The next day, the British war really came to pick up Shen Ruolan.
Shen Ruolan was trying to draw a clear line with that master, and just because she was unwell, she declined the kindness of Grandpa Qi.
Shen Ruolan is indeed unwell, but it is not that she is sick, but that her body has developed. To be precise, the two rice grains on her chest are beginning to swell and bulge, and she is about to grow up.
Although the **** of mature women are very beautiful, the maturation process is not so beautiful. The bursts of heart-wrenching pain can distort the painful features of a person without paying attention.
Shen Ruolan is now at this embarrassing stage. She woke up this morning very painfully, so she didn't want to go anywhere today. She simply shut herself at home and experienced the taste of development.
Chun Yumin didn't wait for the beautiful woman, but when she heard that she was unwell, she was very worried. He sent Nie Heng in the first time and asked Nie Heng to check her pulse to see where she was unwell.
Nie Heng came to Shen's house to explain his intentions. Shen Ruolan felt even more disturbed when he saw that Master Qi was so caring about him, and she made up her mind to alienate him and try not to see each other again.
But at the moment, Nie Heng is here. Jizhou is the most prestigious. Doctors who can't be invited to come to my house for how much money others spend. If you want to see a doctor, you can't hold it away. She just wants to check it. As for her own body, this little body was so weak in the past, and she didn’t have a good foundation since she was a child. She wanted to check if there were any roots left, so she could rest assured; besides, just like the uncle’s temperament, she sent someone there. Now, if she doesn't let her watch, he will never let it go.
As a result, after taking her pulse, Nie Heng helped her to diagnose, and came to the conclusion that everything is normal for the girl and there is no discomfort in her body.
After a little embarrassment for a while, I simply grabbed Nie Heng and gave her mother a doctor. Anyway, the genius doctors are here. This is a rare opportunity. I just happened to help my mother to take a look and see how her mother's body is now.
Nie Heng helped Mu's check again. After the diagnosis, in front of Mu's face, he smiled and said that everything was okay, it was okay, but when he left, he took advantage of Shen Ruolan to send him off, and quietly told Shen Ruolan, Mu's The body is gradually declining, I am afraid that it will not last the New Year.
Although Shen Ruolan had been mentally prepared for a long time, she was still very heavy after hearing what Doctor Nie said. She said: "If I go to the mountain next month to find ginseng flowers and ghost grass for my mother, will it be too late?"
Nie Heng said, "This, naturally, the sooner the better, sooner rather than later!"
Shen Ruolan nodded solemnly, "I will go into the mountains next month. In any case, I will definitely find those two medicines. At that time, I will have to trouble you to prepare them!"
Nie Heng smiled and said: "It's easy to say, when the time comes, the girl will give her orders, and the old man should do her best."
**
Chun Yumin heard Nie Heng saying that she was innocent, and suddenly understood that the girl was hiding from her illness and didn't want to see herself.
This made him feel very depressed. That time, in the apricot blossom rain in Zhuangzi, she was clearly shy and timid, and she had already moved her mind to herself. She wanted to go all out to win the pursuit, but in just a few days, she turned her face and asked Rejecting him thousands of miles away, this makes him a little unacceptable!
Just as depressed, Luo Cheng sent another message.
"Master, Princess Rongjia has written, saying that Princess An'an has left for Jizhou and will be there in about a month. Shall we send someone to meet him on the road?"
Chun Yumin was getting bored. He became even more annoyed when he heard that people he didn't want to see were coming. He said coldly, "It wasn't the master who asked her to come, so why should the master answer her?"
Luo Chengxin said, ‘Just because she is your fiancee? Your fiancée came to you for medical treatment. Isn’t it right for you to respond? ’
Of course, he only dared to say this in his heart, and on the surface he did not dare to say it.
After being silent, Luo Cheng said again: "After Princess Na An'an comes to Jizhou, where does the master plan to place her?"
Under normal circumstances, the master should place Princess An'an in the palace, but the attitude of the master towards her feels awkward, and it is very likely that she will be placed in the Zhuangzi.
As a result, he guessed wrong again. Not only did the master not intend to let her into the palace, but even Zhuangzi didn't plan to let her in. He only said coldly: "Let her go to the palace for resettlement. After all, we have a marriage contract and live in Gossip will be spread in the same house, which is not good for anyone!"
There was a black line on Luo Cheng's head. It was the first time he knew that the master cares about fame. If Miss Shen wanted to live in his house, would he still care about fame?
Not to mention fame, I'm afraid that the fame will not care about it!
However, these are not things he should take care of. Since the master has spoken, he just does it.
Just as he was about to withdraw, the master suddenly said: "Luo Cheng, do you have a woman you like?"
Luo Cheng was taken aback, and then his face turned slightly red and said: "Back to the master, his subordinates have vowed to be loyal to the master in this life since childhood, and will never think about children's affairs!"
Chun Yumin waved his hand: "You go now, and call Lushen general to this king!"
General Lu Shen is his general, and he is very suave, always surrounded by Yingying and Yanyan, and has a good relationship with women. Chun Yumin felt that such a person must have a good attitude towards women. He asked him how to coax women... …
**
Lord Zhan is still thinking about making people happy, while Shen Ruolan is already happy over there.
Because today the Jizhou Chamber of Commerce sent an invitation to her hot pot restaurant, inviting her to participate in an auction held by wealthy businessmen in Jizhou City five days later.
This auction is held every year in Jizhou. It is initiated by the wealthy businessmen of Jizhou. Those who participate in the auction are also the wealthy businessmen in Jizhou City. The auctions are all rare and precious treasures that everyone can auction. , Can also be interchanged.
This auction is not only a gathering of wealthy businessmen, but also a symbol of status. People who don’t have money or are not worth enough are not eligible to participate. Just opened stores like Shen Ruolan’s can get such a symbolic invitation. It's very rare.
Bacheng is also because her hot pot restaurant is very famous in Jizhou, and the business is so good that her family can get persimmons and cucumbers that Baiwei can't get. Its strength is obvious, so I gave them one. For invitations.
Otherwise, her shop alone is not enough to participate in the auction.
Shen Ruolan felt that she could take this opportunity to open her eyes, maybe she could still buy something she likes, so she gladly accepted it!
The day after receiving the invitation, she deliberately went to the best silk and satin store in Jizhou, the Brocade House. She wanted to buy a decent dress for the facade. Although she admired simplicity, she also scored on occasions? Like the kind of auction where wealthy businessmen gather, her little hot pot restaurant owner was reluctantly invited. If she doesn’t dress up more expensively, she will definitely be despised and despised by others. The habit of being respectful and respectful has existed in ancient times. It will never change.
When we arrived at the Brocade Building, Nuo Da’s shop was full of colorful silks, woven, embroidered, plain, and all kinds of fabrics. She specifically asked the guy which fabric is the best. , She wants to see.
When the guy heard that she wanted the best, he deliberately entered the inner room, and cherished a pair of light yellow thin satin fabric from the inner room, saying that this satin was a new one from the south side yesterday. It is called a floating brocade. It looks like the sun is shining on the water, and it is sparkling while walking. It is very beautiful. Because of the high price, the whole shop is only one horse.
When Shen Ruolan saw the satin, her eyes brightened. Not only was the satin beautiful, it was also her favorite light yellow. It was just prepared for her. When she touched it, she felt that the satin was soft and silky, as water-like and thin. When you look at it, you can actually see different shades of yellow from different angles, which is amazing!
Shen Ruolan caught the match immediately and asked, "How much is this satin sold for?"
What she said was a'foot', not a'horse', because it can be imagined that a high-end silk and satin shop like the Brocade House only bought one horse of satin, which must be very valuable. She didn't dare to say that she wanted one, she was afraid. The price of this satin is no longer within her range.
The guy smiled and said, "Speaking of the price, the price of this piece of floating brocade is more expensive than other satin. It costs fifteen taels of silver for one foot, not a fraction."
When Shen Ruolan heard it, she was secretly stunned, one foot would cost fifteen taels, which is indeed a golden inch!
No wonder there is only one horse in the whole store.
However, if you are more expensive, you should be more expensive. According to the current income of the family, you can afford to buy a piece of this kind of clothes, and wearing such high-end goods, not only is you beautiful, but you can also make a good appearance!
Thinking about it, she took out her purse and said: "Then measure me six feet, but the ruler must be more accurate, so don't fool people."
The guy listened and said with a smile: "Girls can really make jokes. Our store is a long-established store in Jizhou. It's credibility is the most important thing. How could it be possible to fool customers?"
Shen Ruolan smiled and said: "There is no best, I am also joking, you can measure the cloth for me, I am still in a hurry to make new clothes!"
"okay!"
The guy smiled and put the piece of satin on the counter, took out the ruler and began to measure the cloth. After measuring it, just about to cut it, he suddenly heard a sharp voice: "Stop."
Shen Ruolan turned her head and saw a gorgeous young woman approaching. She was wearing a pink peony-wrapped brocade jacket, and underneath was a red woven gold makeup flower ball and miscellaneous horse-faced skirt with gold inlaid jade steps on her head. Shake, golden dotted green phoenix hairpin, coral bead flower, etc., rich and honorable, domineering.
Behind the woman stood two beautifully dressed maids. Both maids were dressed in silk and satin clothes with gold and silver on their heads. They were better dressed than Shen Ruolan's.
However, although they are well dressed, the three masters and servants are all full of arrogance, one by one raised their faces and raised their chins, as if they were so noble and amazing.
Seeing the woman coming in, the guy hurriedly nodded and smiled: "Hello Aunt Xue!"
The woman called Aunt Xue ignored her buddy's greetings and said arrogantly: "I bought this satin, so I can't sell it to others!"
When the guy heard this, he said with a little embarrassment: "Aunt Xue, this girl has bought six feet just now, and I have finished measuring them. Look, or let this girl six feet, and the rest of you... "
Aunt Xue's eyes stood up: "Did you hear what I said?"
A round-faced maid sternly said: "Our aunt's grandmother said she wants this satin and she is not allowed to sell it to others. Are you deaf?"
The guy was scolded, his expression stagnated, and he slowly turned to Shen Ruolan, with a look of guilt and helplessness, and said in a low voice: "Girl, or else, look at other things. If there is something you like, go for the younger one. Help you talk to the shopkeeper and ask him to sell you a bit cheaper."
Shen Ruolan knew this guy's difficulties, and didn't embarrass her, smiled and said, "Fine, then I'll look elsewhere."
She didn’t want to have a few feet of satin and the horns. That **** auntie seemed to be a stubborn, good-for-nothing, and looking at her dress, the husband should be a rich and powerful lord, and she didn’t want to provoke herself. If you are in trouble, you can only admit yourself to bad luck.
The man apologized and said, "I'm sorry for the girl this time. There will be any new materials and new tricks in the store in the future. I will assign you to keep them, but you can buy this girl first!"
Seeing the sincere look of the buddy, Shen Ruolan had a good impression of him. If he was a prosperous person, maybe he would have been busy greeting this aunt now, how could he still care about her?

During the portrait, Uncle Qi asked casually.
Shen Ruolan was afraid of showing flaws, so she didn't dare to say that she had painted portraits for people, so she said, "I have painted pigs, dogs, chickens, ducks and geese and other poultry without painting people."
Uncle Qi's mouth twitched, and he felt that this bad girl was deliberate. He wanted to clean her up, but he couldn't bear it. Then the thought that she had painted for her fiance before she painted it, and he was happy again. She was complacent, so she forgave her for being unreasonable!
After painting all morning, the portrait was finally completed.
A handsome man, dressed in elegant white clothes, sits quietly behind the case and reads a book. His handsome face and ink-colored eyes are like a landscape ink painting, gentle and sincere, gentle as jade, just like the morning sun, so beautiful that people can’t remove their eyes.
In this painting, there is no sign of his usual evil and domineering, only endless gentleness, as if facing his beloved girl, that exquisite face, with a gentle smile, He is like a lover than usual!
Shen Ruolan was very satisfied, and Chun Yumin was also very satisfied. After standing at the front of the painting for a long time, she said leisurely: "Lan'er is really ingenious, and Huizhi Lanxin, if she is in the capital, this hand-painting technique alone is enough to be gorgeous. Jingshi, famous all over the world!"
Shen Ruolan shook!
It's Lan'er again. This is the second time he calls himself that way. Shouldn't she correct him and ask him to change his name?
Thinking about this, she turned her head and was about to express her opinion to him, but suddenly slammed into a pair of dark and deep eyes.
Shen Ruolan flicked again!
What kind of look is this? Are you still gentle and affectionate? It was like the eyes staring at each other between lovers, wouldn't he really be tempted by himself?
Thinking about this, she didn't dare to say anything to him anymore, and hurried away under the pretext of cooking him lunch.
When cooking lunch, she deeply reviewed herself, and felt that she had been walking with him too close and too frequently these days, and the interaction with him was not in accordance with the rules of this era. This era should be guarded by men and women. , But she actually forgot about it, and she told him to laugh and fight for several days, maybe because of her untimely behavior, he misunderstood that she was interesting to him.
This is not so good. I am already engaged. If he is allowed to misunderstand her, it will damage her reputation and be looked down upon by the world. In the future, it is better to have less contact with him... …
The cooking for lunch was very simple. Several dishes were made by the chef in the house. She only fried French fries. By the way, she also fried some sweet potato and pumpkin sticks. These things were delicious with tomato sauce.
During the meal, Uncle Qi ate a lot of French fries for the face. During the period, he also caught her with chopsticks and fish, which surprised Shen Ruolan so that the chopsticks almost fell to the ground.
When Chun Yujun saw her panicked, Hua Rong turned pale, the smile in her eyes grew thicker.
After dinner, Shen Ruolan got up and said goodbye. Chun Yumin told Luo Cheng to take the deeds of the three houses and hand them over to Shen Ruolan. She also asked her to live in Jizhou, which is a good place. She will like it more and more as she lives for a long time.
Shen Ruolan agreed, but she didn't have any such thoughts in her heart. When everything at home is on track, she still has to go back to the mountain village. She just likes the country’s back-to-nature, self-sufficient life, who Call her a countryman in her last life!
When I got into the cart out of Zhuangzi, Shen Ruolan found that the pearls, ginseng, clothes and quilts that she had lost before were all neatly placed in the cart. This meant returning to Zhao.
Seeing these lost and recovered things and the three house deeds that he had obtained, Shen Ruolan was not happy at all, and even felt very uneasy in her heart. Today, the look in her eyes and the attitude towards her by Master Qi, let She was very frightened, and she was basically sure now that the uncle fell in love with her, it was too scary and scary...
**
In the days that followed, Shen Ruolan was very busy. Every day she told stories to the girls waiting in the printing house, occasionally she also told Shen Youjia, and took time to go to the world to read the previous "Thirty-Six Strategies". 》How is the recovery process? Are there any remaining unmanageable problems?
What she did not expect was that those readers who had previously purchased "The Thirty-Six Strategies" did not return many books. It turned out that the ancients already had the consciousness of collecting, and many people felt that the books were banned by the officials. , It will definitely not be published again in the future. The "Thirty-Six Strategies" in their hands may become a collection or an orphan after many years.
Therefore, even though they offered the purchase price at the original price, they still refused to sell it. Some people even blocked the door of the world to buy and sell the "Thirty-Six Strategies" for the future. Can have a chance to appreciate.
The world knows the book with great fanfare for several days, not only failed to take back the sold books, but also sold hundreds of copies of the "Thirty-Six Strategies" that existed here before. It was really dumbfounding. !
Shen Ruolan is eager to do this. The less she collects, the less her loss will be. Although Master Qi said he was responsible for collecting books, how could she be embarrassed to let the family take the money to collect it? It was very interesting that people gave her the banned book order. How could she be embarrassed to take advantage of this little thing with the cheek? So from the beginning, she made up her mind to pay for the book by herself. Seeing that no one would sell the book back, she would not have to bear the loss. She was very happy!
During this period of time, the business of hot pot restaurants is getting better and better. Originally, hot pot is the only one in Jizhou. Everyone loves to eat them fresh, and now there are two more signatures such as tomatoes and cucumbers. Dishes, customers come to consume more and more. There are people eating early in the morning. It can be said that from the opening in the morning to the closing in the middle of the night, the guests are constant, and there are often tables in the middle of the lunch and evening meals. When the children are not enough, for a time, the business is good, even Baiwei people can't catch up, and they make more money!
The dim sum was sold very well, because there was always not enough to sell, Shen Dejian went to the blacksmith's shop to order three or four ovens, but even so, the dim sum made every day is still not enough to sell.
Later, after careful consideration by Shen Dejian and his wife, the two bought two small servants in the tooth shop, one fifteen, called Xiaoqi, one sixteen, called Wuzi, both of them were solid, strong and obedient. A capable young man, one person can work for several girls. After buying it back, Dad taught them hand in hand for two days, and soon let them start to work with them.
With the addition of them, the production efficiency has been greatly improved at once, and the snacks made every day can finally meet the needs of the market!
After a short break, the printing factory also started to reopen. The first book published was called "White Lady Yongzhen Leifeng Pagoda", which tells the love story of Bai Lady and Xu Xian. This is placed in modern three-year-old children. Knowing the story, it seems plain and unremarkable, but I did not expect to gain a large number of fans in this world.
Many people were deeply moved by this poignant love story. The loving couple who sympathized with Xu Xian and Bai Niangzi were torn apart. They were also ruthless, nosy, and even romantic and naive. In this script, I deliberately bought a snake to release it, in the hope that in the next life or a few lifetimes, I can have a beautiful love story with the little snake he released...
For a while, in the streets and alleys, in the teahouses of the pubs, everyone was talking about this story, and even some troupes planned to move the story to the stage and interpret the story in the form of opera!
"White Lady" also quickly replaced "Thirty-Six Strategies" and became the most popular conversation after dinner. Shen Ruolan's printing factory and Tianxia Zhizhi also obtained a huge profit as a result, and each was happy!
During this period, Shen Ruolan went to Chun Yu Min's villa again.
With the help of six talented women including Liu Hanxiang, the last eight strategies of "The Thirty-Six Strategies" have been completed. She was to send the manuscript and had to go. But she deliberately chose to go around ten o'clock in the morning. At this time, Master Qi is probably not at home, so she can avoid meeting him.
As she expected, the uncle was not there. Not only he was not there, but also some of his attendants were not there. Shen Ruolan gave the manuscript to the housekeeper and asked her to forward the manuscript to Uncle Qi.
The housekeeper's wife respectfully agreed, and she treated Shen Ruolan as respectful as her ancestors. She almost knelt down to serve her, making Shen Ruolan very uncomfortable. After a few words, she fled and left.
Chun Yumin only found out that she had come that night. He has been in the military camp for training during this period. After hearing her coming, Chun Yumin felt very sorry and regretted that he missed a chance to live with her. .
These days, even though he is in the military camp, he always thinks of her in his heart, never forgetting, no matter what he is doing, he can always think of her unknowingly, the way she sings, and the way she smiles and thinks The way she rode with him in the fields and grass, and she also missed her shy and embarrassed appearance in the rain of flowers...
Every aspect of her is so beautiful and fits his mind. It is only now that he realizes that she is no longer a kind of favored woman to him. Before she knows it, she has completely occupied him. His heart makes him hard to ignore even if he wants to ignore it.
This is really a headache and sweet thing. He was very happy. He finally met a woman he loved from the heart, but he was a little depressed. The mother and the emperor would never agree to him marrying her as a concubine. Yes, and this girl is too thoughtful and refuses to succumb to others. What a headache!
However, those are things for the future. Right now, he hasn't seen her for a few days, and he has missed her for a long time. Tomorrow, he will send Yingzhan to pick her up, saying that he has something to discuss with her, so that he can solve his love.
The next day, the British war really came to pick up Shen Ruolan.
Shen Ruolan was trying to draw a clear line with that master, and just because she was unwell, she declined the kindness of Grandpa Qi.
Shen Ruolan is indeed unwell, but it is not that she is sick, but that her body has developed. To be precise, the two rice grains on her chest are beginning to swell and bulge, and she is about to grow up.
Although the **** of mature women are very beautiful, the maturation process is not so beautiful. The bursts of heart-wrenching pain can distort the painful features of a person without paying attention.
Shen Ruolan is now at this embarrassing stage. She woke up this morning very painfully, so she didn't want to go anywhere today. She simply shut herself at home and experienced the taste of development.
Chun Yumin didn't wait for the beautiful woman, but when she heard that she was unwell, she was very worried. He sent Nie Heng in the first time and asked Nie Heng to check her pulse to see where she was unwell.
Nie Heng came to Shen's house to explain his intentions. Shen Ruolan felt even more disturbed when he saw that Master Qi was so caring about him, and she made up her mind to alienate him and try not to see each other again.
But at the moment, Nie Heng is here. Jizhou is the most prestigious. Doctors who can't be invited to come to my house for how much money others spend. If you want to see a doctor, you can't hold it away. She just wants to check it. As for her own body, this little body was so weak in the past, and she didn’t have a good foundation since she was a child. She wanted to check if there were any roots left, so she could rest assured; besides, just like the uncle’s temperament, she sent someone there. Now, if she doesn't let her watch, he will never let it go.
As a result, after taking her pulse, Nie Heng helped her to diagnose, and came to the conclusion that everything is normal for the girl and there is no discomfort in her body.
After a little embarrassment for a while, I simply grabbed Nie Heng and gave her mother a doctor. Anyway, the genius doctors are here. This is a rare opportunity. I just happened to help my mother to take a look and see how her mother's body is now.
Nie Heng helped Mu's check again. After the diagnosis, in front of Mu's face, he smiled and said that everything was okay, it was okay, but when he left, he took advantage of Shen Ruolan to send him off, and quietly told Shen Ruolan, Mu's The body is gradually declining, I am afraid that it will not last the New Year.
Although Shen Ruolan had been mentally prepared for a long time, she was still very heavy after hearing what Doctor Nie said. She said: "If I go to the mountain next month to find ginseng flowers and ghost grass for my mother, will it be too late?"
Nie Heng said, "This, naturally, the sooner the better, sooner rather than later!"
Shen Ruolan nodded solemnly, "I will go into the mountains next month. In any case, I will definitely find those two medicines. At that time, I will have to trouble you to prepare them!"
Nie Heng smiled and said: "It's easy to say, when the time comes, the girl will give her orders, and the old man should do her best."
**
Chun Yumin heard Nie Heng saying that she was innocent, and suddenly understood that the girl was hiding from her illness and didn't want to see herself.
This made him feel very depressed. That time, in the apricot blossom rain in Zhuangzi, she was clearly shy and timid, and she had already moved her mind to herself. She wanted to go all out to win the pursuit, but in just a few days, she turned her face and asked Rejecting him thousands of miles away, this makes him a little unacceptable!
Just as depressed, Luo Cheng sent another message.
"Master, Princess Rongjia has written, saying that Princess An'an has left for Jizhou and will be there in about a month. Shall we send someone to meet him on the road?"
Chun Yumin was getting bored. He became even more annoyed when he heard that people he didn't want to see were coming. He said coldly, "It wasn't the master who asked her to come, so why should the master answer her?"
Luo Chengxin said, ‘Just because she is your fiancee? Your fiancée came to you for medical treatment. Isn’t it right for you to respond? ’
Of course, he only dared to say this in his heart, and on the surface he did not dare to say it.
After being silent, Luo Cheng said again: "After Princess Na An'an comes to Jizhou, where does the master plan to place her?"
Under normal circumstances, the master should place Princess An'an in the palace, but the attitude of the master towards her feels awkward, and it is very likely that she will be placed in the Zhuangzi.
As a result, he guessed wrong again. Not only did the master not intend to let her into the palace, but even Zhuangzi didn't plan to let her in. He only said coldly: "Let her go to the palace for resettlement. After all, we have a marriage contract and live in Gossip will be spread in the same house, which is not good for anyone!"
There was a black line on Luo Cheng's head. It was the first time he knew that the master cares about fame. If Miss Shen wanted to live in his house, would he still care about fame?
Not to mention fame, I'm afraid that the fame will not care about it!
However, these are not things he should take care of. Since the master has spoken, he just does it.
Just as he was about to withdraw, the master suddenly said: "Luo Cheng, do you have a woman you like?"
Luo Cheng was taken aback, and then his face turned slightly red and said: "Back to the master, his subordinates have vowed to be loyal to the master in this life since childhood, and will never think about children's affairs!"
Chun Yumin waved his hand: "You go now, and call Lushen general to this king!"
General Lu Shen is his general, and he is very suave, always surrounded by Yingying and Yanyan, and has a good relationship with women. Chun Yumin felt that such a person must have a good attitude towards women. He asked him how to coax women... …
**
Lord Zhan is still thinking about making people happy, while Shen Ruolan is already happy over there.
Because today the Jizhou Chamber of Commerce sent an invitation to her hot pot restaurant, inviting her to participate in an auction held by wealthy businessmen in Jizhou City five days later.
This auction is held every year in Jizhou. It is initiated by the wealthy businessmen of Jizhou. Those who participate in the auction are also the wealthy businessmen in Jizhou City. The auctions are all rare and precious treasures that everyone can auction. , Can also be interchanged.
This auction is not only a gathering of wealthy businessmen, but also a symbol of status. People who don’t have money or are not worth enough are not eligible to participate. Just opened stores like Shen Ruolan’s can get such a symbolic invitation. It's very rare.
Bacheng is also because her hot pot restaurant is very famous in Jizhou, and the business is so good that her family can get persimmons and cucumbers that Baiwei can't get. Its strength is obvious, so I gave them one. For invitations.
Otherwise, her shop alone is not enough to participate in the auction.
Shen Ruolan felt that she could take this opportunity to open her eyes, maybe she could still buy something she likes, so she gladly accepted it!
The day after receiving the invitation, she deliberately went to the best silk and satin store in Jizhou, the Brocade House. She wanted to buy a decent dress for the facade. Although she admired simplicity, she also scored on occasions? Like the kind of auction where wealthy businessmen gather, her little hot pot restaurant owner was reluctantly invited. If she doesn’t dress up more expensively, she will definitely be despised and despised by others. The habit of being respectful and respectful has existed in ancient times. It will never change.
When we arrived at the Brocade Building, Nuo Da’s shop was full of colorful silks, woven, embroidered, plain, and all kinds of fabrics. She specifically asked the guy which fabric is the best. , She wants to see.
When the guy heard that she wanted the best, he deliberately entered the inner room, and cherished a pair of light yellow thin satin fabric from the inner room, saying that this satin was a new one from the south side yesterday. It is called a floating brocade. It looks like the sun is shining on the water, and it is sparkling while walking. It is very beautiful. Because of the high price, the whole shop is only one horse.
When Shen Ruolan saw the satin, her eyes brightened. Not only was the satin beautiful, it was also her favorite light yellow. It was just prepared for her. When she touched it, she felt that the satin was soft and silky, as water-like and thin. When you look at it, you can actually see different shades of yellow from different angles, which is amazing!
Shen Ruolan caught the match immediately and asked, "How much is this satin sold for?"
What she said was a'foot', not a'horse', because it can be imagined that a high-end silk and satin shop like the Brocade House only bought one horse of satin, which must be very valuable. She didn't dare to say that she wanted one, she was afraid. The price of this satin is no longer within her range.
The guy smiled and said, "Speaking of the price, the price of this piece of floating brocade is more expensive than other satin. It costs fifteen taels of silver for one foot, not a fraction."
When Shen Ruolan heard it, she was secretly stunned, one foot would cost fifteen taels, which is indeed a golden inch!
No wonder there is only one horse in the whole store.
However, if you are more expensive, you should be more expensive. According to the current income of the family, you can afford to buy a piece of this kind of clothes, and wearing such high-end goods, not only is you beautiful, but you can also make a good appearance!
Thinking about it, she took out her purse and said: "Then measure me six feet, but the ruler must be more accurate, so don't fool people."
The guy listened and said with a smile: "Girls can really make jokes. Our store is a long-established store in Jizhou. It's credibility is the most important thing. How could it be possible to fool customers?"
Shen Ruolan smiled and said: "There is no best, I am also joking, you can measure the cloth for me, I am still in a hurry to make new clothes!"
"okay!"
The guy smiled and put the piece of satin on the counter, took out the ruler and began to measure the cloth. After measuring it, just about to cut it, he suddenly heard a sharp voice: "Stop."
Shen Ruolan turned her head and saw a gorgeous young woman approaching. She was wearing a pink peony-wrapped brocade jacket, and underneath was a red woven gold makeup flower ball and miscellaneous horse-faced skirt with gold inlaid jade steps on her head. Shake, golden dotted green phoenix hairpin, coral bead flower, etc., rich and honorable, domineering.
Behind the woman stood two beautifully dressed maids. Both maids were dressed in silk and satin clothes with gold and silver on their heads. They were better dressed than Shen Ruolan's.
However, although they are well dressed, the three masters and servants are all full of arrogance, one by one raised their faces and raised their chins, as if they were so noble and amazing.
Seeing the woman coming in, the guy hurriedly nodded and smiled: "Hello Aunt Xue!"
The woman called Aunt Xue ignored her buddy's greetings and said arrogantly: "I bought this satin, so I can't sell it to others!"
When the guy heard this, he said with a little embarrassment: "Aunt Xue, this girl has bought six feet just now, and I have finished measuring them. Look, or let this girl six feet, and the rest of you... "
Aunt Xue's eyes stood up: "Did you hear what I said?"
A round-faced maid sternly said: "Our aunt's grandmother said she wants this satin and she is not allowed to sell it to others. Are you deaf?"
The guy was scolded, his expression stagnated, and he slowly turned to Shen Ruolan, with a look of guilt and helplessness, and said in a low voice: "Girl, or else, look at other things. If there is something you like, go for the younger one. Help you talk to the shopkeeper and ask him to sell you a bit cheaper."
Shen Ruolan knew this guy's difficulties, and didn't embarrass her, smiled and said, "Fine, then I'll look elsewhere."
She didn’t want to have a few feet of satin and the horns. That **** auntie seemed to be a stubborn, good-for-nothing, and looking at her dress, the husband should be a rich and powerful lord, and she didn’t want to provoke herself. If you are in trouble, you can only admit yourself to bad luck.
The man apologized and said, "I'm sorry for the girl this time. There will be any new materials and new tricks in the store in the future. I will assign you to keep them, but you can buy this girl first!"
Seeing the sincere look of the buddy, Shen Ruolan had a good impression of him. If he was a prosperous person, maybe he would have been busy greeting this aunt now, how could he still care about her?
