Chapter 349: Medicinal Herb Business
The night is exceptionally quiet. Through the thin clouds, the moonlight sprinkled on the courtyard, and even if it was not lit, it was extraordinarily bright.
Yunqing stepped on the night and came back, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw the lights in the house on. Before entering the house, I saw Qu's mother reading softly with a book, while Yuxi leaned on the bed and listened quietly.
When Mother Qu heard the footsteps, she immediately put down the book in her hand and saluted Yun Qing, and then went down very consciously.
Yun Qing looked at the thick "Geological Map of the Great Zhou", frowned and said, "Why don't you sleep so late?"
Yuxi shook his head and said with a smile: "I can't sleep until I get to the point." "The habits that have been cultivated for more than ten years cannot be broken overnight.
Taking advantage of the time when Yunqing went to bathe, Yuxi got up from the bed after getting dressed, and then went to the small kitchen to take a look.
After Yunqing came out of the clean room, he saw a plate of steaming buns and two dishes on the table, one plate was beef, the other was vegetables, and there was a beef bone mushroom soup.
Looking at so many delicious foods, Yun Qing laughed: "Before getting married, the second uncle said that I would definitely gain weight after marrying you." It's hard to eat like this without getting fat!" Rao is as intense as his training, and he has gained three pounds.
Yuxi looked at Yun Qing and said, "Where are you fat, I think you've lost weight!" Yun Qing has a good physique, and his body is full of tendon meat.
Yunqing didn't argue with Yuxi for this trivial matter, smiled and took a bun, and said, "If you say you're not fat, you're not fat!"
Yuxi also ate a bowl of beef bone mushroom soup.
After eating, Yuxi went to rinse her mouth again before going to bed. As soon as I got into bed, I was hugged by Yunqing. Yuxi was a little unaccustomed at first, but now, she is used to it. Before going to bed, both husband and wife will talk, which is what Yuxi strongly demands: "Husband, in a few days it will be the day of Zisu's marriage." You should also give Guo Xun a few days off!" Yu Xi said that the wedding date of that day should not be set at the beginning of October at all, it should be set in the month of Layue, and there will be no need to rush so much at that time.
Yunqing naturally agreed to this: "Give him three days off." Speaking of which, Xu Wu is now left alone. "Xu Wu and Guo Xun have followed them for so many years, and he treats several people as brothers.
Yuxi knew Yunqing's subtext, and said with a smile: "Did you ask Xu Wu what he wanted?
Yunqing said: "I asked Xu Wu, and he didn't have any other requirements, as long as he knew how to live a life, he would hurt people." ”
When Yuxi heard this, she was a little strange, what does it mean to know that it hurts someone? If her husband doesn't hurt, who else can she hurt? But seeing Yunqing's tired look, she didn't continue to ask. You can inquire about this kind of thing by yourself, and you don't need to ask Yunqing.
Yun Qing kissed Yu Xi's forehead and said, "Sleep!" Yun Qing came back late every day, and he had to leave before dawn. However, thinking about Yuxi's early pregnancy, he still insisted on coming back every night during this time.
Early the next morning, Yuxi called Shisu over and asked, "Are the wedding dresses and brocade quilts ready?" Yuxi also called two little maids to help in order to let Zisu embroider the wedding dress before the wedding date.
Shisu nodded and said, "It's all ready." "Shiso is actually a little depressed, too hurried. But the wedding date has been set, and it is not appropriate to change it.
Yuxi sent a few gold ornaments to Shisu as a dowry, and said: "It's not as simple as the capital, and the wedding may be a little simpler, so you don't have to care." As long as the husband and wife have one heart, it is stronger than anything else. She still doesn't know what kind of character Shisu has, so this is also a relief to Zisu.
Zi Su nodded and said, "Madam, don't worry, I will live a good life with him." "Marry a chicken and marry a dog, no matter how depressed you are, you have to live
As he was talking, he heard his mother-in-law come in and spread the word that Grandma Zhao was here. Yuxi stood up with a smile and said, "Quickly invite someone in." ”
Second Grandma Zhao entered the house, looked at Yuxi, and said, "I heard that you are pregnant, why can't you see it at all!"
Yuxi was not surprised that people outside knew that she was pregnant, Yunqing came back happily that day, and went out happily, his subordinates must have noticed it. Besides, Yucheng is so big, how can it be hidden. Yuxi said with a smile: "It's only been more than a month pregnant, where can I see it?" plus she was wearing a loose dress at home, which didn't show her waist.
After sitting down, Grandma Zhao sat down and said, "Speaking of which, my sister is really blessed! She has only been married for more than three months, and she is pregnant." "I think back then, she didn't get pregnant until three years after she got married, and I don't know what the anxiety was. Fortunately, she gave birth to a daughter at the end of last year, and there are few girls in the Zhao family, which is relatively rare, so Mrs. Zhao didn't blush at her.
Yuxi said with a smile: "It's also luck." ”
Second Grandma Zhao hurriedly said: "What luck, that's a blessing." Don't you know, after the news of your pregnancy spreads, I don't know how many people envy you!" As soon as you pass the door, you will get pregnant, and you will have a big fat boy at that time, so that people will be envious, jealous and hateful.
Yuxi listened to Zhao Er's grandmother's words, and said with a smile: "Whether it is male or female, it is my blood and bones, and I like them all." "It's her baby, and she hurts. However, considering Yunqing's situation, Yuxi felt that it would be best if it was a son. Of course, it doesn't matter if it's a daughter, anyway, I have to give birth in the future.
Second Grandma Zhao said to this: "That's right. ”
This time, Zhao Er's grandmother came to look for Yuxi, and there was something wrong: "Sister, do you still want to buy Zhuangzi? If so, there happens to be a very good Zhuangzi." ”
Yuxi shook his head and said, "No need, today's Zhuangzi is enough for us to eat daily." "The output of Zhuangzi is provided to Yuxi first, and the rest is for the people below.
Second Grandma Zhao was not discouraged, and continued: "Brother and sister, I don't know if you want to do other businesses? ”
Yuxi smiled and said, "Sister, tell me, what kind of business is it?"
The only business that is guaranteed to make money is probably only medicinal herbs and grain and grass. Second Grandma Zhao said: "I have a cousin who is in the business of medicinal materials. I wonder if my sister is interested?"
Yuxi actually guessed what kind of business he was doing when Zhao Er's grandmother said that he was guaranteed to make money. In the northwest, it can be said that what is guaranteed to make money must be grain, grass and medicinal materials. She now has a clear understanding of the pattern of the northwest, although the imperial court has sent grain and grass, but it is far from enough, and the poor ones need to be purchased. This errand of purchasing grain and grass fell on the head of the Xu family, and the purchase of another big head of medicinal materials fell on the Zhao family. Originally, there was nothing to do, but the Xu family also wanted to get involved in the business of medicinal materials because they married Qin Zhao with their daughter. The two have been grudges for a long time, and now they are involved in interests, and they are constantly messing in private.
Yuxi smiled and said, "This medicinal herb business is not a small business, you allow me to think about it for two days." "The so-called consideration is actually to ask Yunqing's opinion.
Second Grandma Zhao was a little disappointed when she saw that Yuxi didn't immediately agree. She originally saw that Yuxi had just married and was about to open a shop and buy a grange, thinking that she was very keen on doing business and making money. So she thought that she would definitely agree to talk to Yuxi about doing medicinal herb business this time, but she didn't expect to be so cautious. I was disappointed, but I didn't show it on my face, and said: "Nacheng, then I'll wait for my sister's good news." ”
After talking about serious things, the two also gossiped. Of course, whether it is gossip or not depends on how the parties understand it. For example, Second Grandma Zhao talked about Qin Yue this time: "I heard my mother-in-law say that General Qin wants to marry Qin Yue to His Royal Highness the Prince, and the date is set for the sixth day of October." I heard that it is Liangdi's position, which is really a great blessing. "Count the days, the days of the side concubine and the prince have passed for a day, and they can be renamed.
When the Zhao family got the news, they were very uneasy. Qin Yue is Qin Zhao's sister and the niece of the Xu family. If Qin Yueneng is favored by the prince, the Xu family will have a strong backer in the future.
Yuxi didn't show that he was surprised, but said with a smile: "It's indeed blessed." Not only is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince like half of heaven and man, but the Crown Princess is also a very kind person. "No matter how amiable a person is, it is impossible for him to tolerate others challenging his position. If Qin Yue can keep to himself, if he does something out of the ordinary, then whether he can stay in the East Palace in peace is unknown. As for whether Qin Yue can fight too much, people who are not in the same rank do not need to be evaluated at all.
A gleam flashed in Zhao Er's eyes, and she asked with a smile, "Has my sister seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess?" Don't look at the Zhao family, which is one of the best families in Gansu Province, but when you get to the capital, it is nothing. The biggest official of the Zhao family in the capital is only Wupin, and the inner family has no chance to contact the crown princess alone, and everything they know is heard from the outside.
Yuxi smiled and nodded: "The prince has seen it once, but the prince's momentum is too strong, and he was so scared that he didn't dare to look up." The princess has met several times, and I have played chess with the princess once before!"
Second Grandma Zhao asked with great interest: "Then who loses and who wins?" It is rumored that the crown princess's chess skills are extraordinary, and few people can remember it.
Yuxi smiled and said, "The crown princess deliberately let me, so it was a draw in the end." Speaking of which, it's just a face that the crown princess deliberately left for me. ”
Second Grandma Zhao didn't believe that the crown princess would deliberately save face for Yuxi to make a draw, the age of the crown princess was several years different from Yuxi, and Yuxi would not be ashamed even if she lost: "I didn't expect my sister's chess skills to be so extraordinary." ”
Yuxi said very modestly: "Where, it is the gentleman who teaches well." ”
After talking for a long time, Zhao Er's grandmother went back. Before leaving, Second Grandma Zhao lowered her voice and said to Yuxi: "Sister, be a sister's mouth." You're pregnant now, so you'll have to watch out there for the vixens. "It's almost a matter of saying directly, if a woman seduces your husband, you have to be careful not to be succeeded by the other party.
Yuxi's eyes flashed, and she said with a smile: "Thank you sister for the reminder, I will be careful." ”
Mother Qu frowned and said, "This Second Grandma Zhao is also true, she only said half a sentence, and she didn't say it clearly." "It's better to make it clear than to let your wife think wildly.
Yuxi didn't think about it, she believed that Yunqing didn't do anything behind her back. Of course, even if she really got entangled with the women outside behind her back, she could only blame herself for not knowing people clearly. However, believe it to believe, this matter still has to be clarified. At that moment, he asked Zi Jin and Yu Zhi to go outside to inquire about the news, thinking of Zi Jin's violent temper, he advised: "Don't make any noise, just come back and tell me when you hear the news." "Yu Zhi has a very strong learning ability, it has only been more than five months, and he can speak fluent Yucheng dialect, I have to say, he is a talent!
Zi Jin answered, and called Yu Zhi to go out in a hurry.
