Chapter Forty-Three: Lao Fang's Ideals
There are about thirty strings of sugar gourds that Lao Fang brought down the mountain today, and the little half was bought by those bear children just now, and there are about a dozen strings left, and the girl obviously can't take it back alone, after the girl paid the silver, the old man took the initiative to help her send things to the place.

With so many copper coins in his pocket, it was heavy, and it also made his heart very steady.
At this time, the old man couldn't help but feel ashamed of doubting his uncle's thoughts just now.
"Uncle, how did you make this rock sugar gourd?"
The girl walked in front, holding a string of sugar gourds in her hand, and gently licked the sugar coating outside, guessing in her heart that it should be frosting, but she was not sure, and turned her head and asked suspiciously.
"Girl, I can't tell you." Lao Fang laughed, and did not reveal the production method of rock sugar gourd just because the girl was beautiful.
Lao Fang is not so stupid, this is what he will use to make a fortune in the future, how can he tell others casually.
Hearing the old man's answer, the girl was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, she also realized that her question just now seemed to be a little inappropriate, smiled apologetically, and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot that this is the uncle's secret recipe, I shouldn't have asked." ”
Lao Fang Han laughed twice and did not answer.
Following the girl, walking through the noisy streets, I don't know when it began, the crowd began to sparse, and the buildings on both sides gradually became more spacious, a row of vermilion gates, in front of which there were mighty stone lions, extremely spacious.
"I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money to buy a village here...... "Lao Fang muttered to himself in his heart, and he began to wonder what the identity of the girl is, after all, the people who can live here are either rich or expensive, and they are not accessible to ordinary people like them.
"This is it."
After a while, the girl's footsteps stopped, turned around and smiled at the other man's surname and said, "You wait here first, I'll come out as soon as I go in." ”
The old man nodded, watching the girl walk into the door that was a foot high, and the two little maids at the door bent down and said something, because the distance was too far, he didn't hear clearly.
It didn't take long for the girl's figure to reappear.
The four girls followed her, each holding a tray in their hands, and walked in front of the big man surnamed Fang, looking at the strings of crystal clear rock sugar gourds, the girl on the left asked curiously: "Sister Rouge, what is this?" “
"Don't ask, I'll tell you later, take off all these rock sugar gourds first."
Several girls looked at the old man with puzzled eyes, and then looked at the rock sugar gourds one by one.
The stick on the shoulder can't be thrown, and when these girls take off all the rock sugar gourds, the old man's task is successfully completed, and when he leaves, he also heard a girl mutter, "Isn't this a red fruit, what a rare ......?"
As for what happened after that, Lao Fang had no mind or interest in listening, he just wanted to go back to the village immediately and start making the next batch of rock sugar gourds......
At this time, Anqing Mansion City, somewhere extremely luxurious mansion, in the back garden.
"I didn't expect that just red fruits could be made so delicious." A certain girl licked her lips unsatisfactorily, and her movements were very seductive.
"You even suspected me just now......" said the girl named Rouge, who glanced at her.
"Hee-hee, it's all my fault, thank you, Sister Rouge." The girl shook her arm flatteringly and said with a smile.
"It's strange to say, this is just an ordinary red fruit, how can there be such a big difference in taste." A young girl said suspiciously.
"It should be because of the layer of frosting outside, this rock sugar gourd is not difficult to make, but you can try it in the future." The girl named Rouge thought for a moment and said.
Although I didn't ask how to make it just now, it is not difficult to guess, after all, in addition to the red fruit, this rock sugar gourd only has a layer of sweet things on the outside, which seems to be wrapped in frosting after boiling.
"Rouge, what are you doing here?"
A soft voice suddenly came from behind them, and several girls turned their heads and saw a beautiful woman, supported by two maids, walking towards this side.
The woman had a beautiful face, although the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes revealed her age, but the charm was still undiminished, except for the face that was a little haggard and emaciated, and her face was a little unusually pale.
"Madame......"
Seeing this woman, several girls stood up in a little panic, and they were also a little apprehensive in their hearts.
They are the subordinates of this house, and when a few people gather here, it is easy to think that they are lazy.
"Madam, why did you come out, it's windy outside, let's go back quickly." A look of worry appeared on the face of the girl named Rouge, and she hurriedly walked over, hugged the woman and said.
"It's okay, stay in the room and panic, it's okay to go out for a walk." The beautiful woman shook her head and said.
After that, with a casual glance in his eyes, he saw a string of red and crystal clear things on the plate on the stone table behind several girls, and walked over and asked curiously, "What is this?" ”
The girl closest to her quickly wiped the corners of her mouth, and immediately said respectfully: "Mrs. Hui, this is called a rock sugar gourd." ”
"Rock sugar gourd?" The woman asked again, "What is this thing for?" ”
"Madam, this is a snack that Rouge just bought on the street." A delicate girl named Rouge stepped forward and said.
The woman nodded, picked up a string of rock sugar gourds, looked at them, and said, "Crystal clear, it looks good." ”
Then he took a bite gently, the sweet and sour taste, full of relish, and said: "The taste is also delicious." ”
Seeing the woman finish eating a string of sugar gourds, all the girls couldn't help but widen their eyes.
Especially the girl called Rouge, there was a look of surprise on her pretty face.
As Madame's personal maid, of course she knows that Madame's body has been unwell these days, she can hardly eat anything, and occasionally eats something, and she will vomit it quickly, so that the whole person has lost a lot of weight, and it is useless to hire many doctors, and even the specially invited imperial doctor is helpless, so many days, it is the first time she has seen Madame eat so happily.
"Why do you feel more and more hungry after eating these things?" After eating the rock sugar gourd in her hand, a look of doubt appeared on the woman's face, and she said, "Rouge, tell the canteen to make some food, and send it to the room later." ”
"Yes, ma'am, I'll go at once!"
The girl's face was even more surprised, and after answering, she immediately trotted away.
After a while, in the study room in the mansion, hearing the advice of the next person, the middle-aged man who was reading in the room stood up suddenly, and said with a look of surprise: "What do you say, Madame can eat?" ”
The girl nodded violently and said, "Yes, Mrs. took the initiative to order the dining room to do it, and Sister Rouge said that Mrs. ate a lot of things tonight!" ”
"Quick, take me to Madame!"
The beloved wife's stubborn illness was solved, and the middle-aged man laughed and strode out of the room.
At the same time, Lao Fang also strode into Li Yi's house.
Crash!
Piling a large number of copper coins on the table in front of him, the old man laughed and said, "Uncle, all those rock sugar gourds have been sold!" ”
Before, it was only a hundred copper coins a month, but today it only takes a while, which is worth a month's income, and the old party is extremely happy.
"Don't worry about whether the pillar can marry a daughter-in-law, right?"
Such a result was expected by Li Yi, and said with a smile.
The old man laughed and said proudly: "Don't worry, if you make money in the future, we can also learn from those rich people, live in a big house, marry a few concubines, and live a comfortable life!" ”
The big mansions I saw today obviously completely stimulated Lao Fang, and even his life goals were greatly improved.
As if he was shocked by Lao Fang's lofty ideals, Li Yi's smile was stunned on his face, and after a while, he sighed, stood up and patted Lao Fang's shoulder, and turned away without saying a word.
"Uncle, what's wrong?"
Li Yi's actions made the big man surnamed Fang puzzled, and as soon as he asked a sentence, he seemed to feel something, and turned his head suddenly, and saw a familiar face that could not be more familiar appeared behind him.
It's just that this familiar face at this time is extremely gloomy.
Who is it if it's not your own mother-in-law!
"What did you just say!"
In just an instant, the broom in Li Yi's house was copied by the Fang clan in his hand.

"What a wreck!"
Li Yi stood in the courtyard, heard the screams coming from the room, and let out a long sigh.
