Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
On the way back, Jian Qingqing still did not look well. She could not imagine why she would meet such an idiot today. She was almost disgusted.
“Miss Jian.”
Jian Qingqing suddenly heard someone calling her. She stopped and looked across the street. It was Ming Zhiyan. He was riding on a horse with a few officials behind him. She calmed down and greeted him, “Big Brother Ming.”
Ming Zhiyan controlled the horse to go over and asked, “Miss Jian, what happened? You don’t look well. Did something happen?”
Jian Qingqing shook her head and said, “Nothing. I just met an idiot. It’s settled. ”
After saying that, she saw that Ming Zhiyan’s shoes were covered in mud and dust. She asked, “Did Brother Ming just come back from work? Then you should go eat first. I have to go back too.”
Ming Zhiyan replied, “Mm. You should go back quickly.”
“Alright, goodbye then.” After bidding him goodbye, Jian Qingqing turned around and left.
Seeing that she had left, Ming Zhiyan slowly retracted his expression and said to his subordinate, “Go and investigate.”
“Yes!”
After returning, she realized that Mother Jian was still waiting for her. Jian Qingqing did not know why, but she suddenly felt a little wronged. She said in a delicate voice, “Mother…”
Hearing her daughter’s sobbing tone, Mother Jian was shocked and quickly asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen? Were you bullied?”
Jian Qingqing shook her head and avoided the main point. She said lightly, “It’s nothing. I just wanted to buy some eggs, but I didn’t get them.”
Mother Jian heaved a sigh of relief. “I thought something was wrong. It’s nothing. I’ll find them eventually.”
Jian Qingqing was much better now. She had just wanted to complain to her family, but she was fine now. She smiled and said, “I know. I was in a bad mood just now, but I’m much better now.”
Mother Jian was relieved. She patted her head and said, “There’s a solution to everything. Let’s eat first. It’s not good for the body to be hungry for too long.”
Jian Qingqing did not have an appetite. She could not eat anything that was too heavy. Fortunately, Mother Jian’s cooking today was very light. She ate two big bowls of rice.
Seeing that she was eating well, Mother Jian asked, “How many kinds of eggs do you need? I know a person. Her family has a very big farm. Maybe she can take out a large number of eggs.”
Jian Qingqing said in surprise, “Really? I might need more than 5,000. If there aren’t that many eggs, I can even have one or two thousand. I’ll go to another house to take a look. Mistress, if her family has a lot of eggs, you can set me up.
I’ll go and talk to her.”
Mistress Jian smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll go and talk to her first. If there are any eggs, I’ll bring you to see her.”
The person mistress Jian knew was none other than her first customer, Madam Guan. Although the Old Master was an official in Cairo, Shifeng County was considered Madam Guan’s family. She had a very big dowry farm here, the weather was too hot. She had recently returned to the farm to escape the summer heat and often went to her shop to drink and eat desserts.” She was thinking about her daughter, Mother Jian told her the moment she saw Madam Guan.
Madam Guan was surprised. Jian Qingqing’s name was well -known to her. She had invented the method of making fine salt and found a high-yielding grain. Her husband often told her about the legendary Miss Jian, there was also a reason why she often came to play with Miss Jian.
When she heard that this was Miss Jian’s request, Madam Guan readily agreed. Even if she did not have that many eggs, she would still find them. Not everyone had the opportunity to get in touch with Miss Jian. She thought for a moment, there were also a lot of eggs in the farm run by her brothers. She could ask them..
