Qiao Zhiqing looked at Zeng Jiyun apologetically, and knew from her face that she must have heard what Yan Yuting said just now."
Ji Yun, Yuting just now was talking nonsense, don't think about it."
Qiao Zhiqing tentatively comforted.Zeng Jiyun's eyes were already blurred, and he shook his head and struggled in disbelief, and was about to run towards the outside of the courtyard."
Ji Yun, can you calm down?"
Qiao Zhiqing hurriedly grabbed his arm and hugged her body tightly."
You let me go, you're all bad guys.You are all looking forward to the death of my ninth uncle, how did my ninth uncle provoke you. ”Zeng Jiyun cried and cried, and struggled hard in Qiao Zhiqing's arms.stretched out his little hand and slapped Qiao Zhiqing in the face, which widened the eyes of the soldiers in the courtyard in surprise, and hesitated to come forward to help."
Are you comfortable now, let me into the house when you're comfortable."
Qiao Zhiqing's eyes widened almost exposed, shouted at Zeng Jiyun, and pointed directly at the study with his hand.Where had Zeng Jiyun seen Qiao Zhiqing look so angry, and his frightened little heart was about to come out for a while, so he obediently lowered his little head and walked into the study with a red face."
Look at everything, stand up straight for me."
Qiao Zhiqing took a deep breath, yelled at the soldiers in the courtyard who were shaking their heads, and strode into the study as he spoke, shutting the door shut."
Why are you so fierce, you can't say anything well."
Zeng Jiyun sat on the couch tremblingly, constantly playing with his fingers, and complained to Qiao Zhiqing with his head down."
You are not small, you dare to hit your man's face, if you marry in the future, are you still going to lift this house."
Qiao Zhiqing sat down beside her angrily, deliberately raising his voice and scaring her again."
Who, who promised to marry you, what nonsense are you talking about."
Zeng Jiyun shuddered again and whispered.Qiao Zhiqing lifted her little face, and said to her big eyes evilly, "What the puppy said just now that if I helped her ninth uncle, she would be willing to do anything for me, why would I regret this blink of an eye." ”"The little dog repented, you tell me honestly, did my ninth uncle be arrested by the imperial court because of you" Zeng Jiyun saw Qiao Zhiqing's face calm down, and then he had the courage to ask."
No, your ninth uncle wanted to rebel against the court, which made the court seize the handle.Your father was worried that your ninth uncle's return would be bad for the imperial court, so he did everything possible to stop it.Last time your father came, I had already prepared a guarantee for your ninth uncle to the court, but unfortunately, your father did not hand it over to the court. ”Qiao Zhiqing watched Zeng Jiyun tell the truth, Zeng Jiyun suddenly realized, and was extremely cold for a while, and he didn't understand why his father was so ruthless, and he could even give up his own brother's life."
Then can my ninth uncle still be saved" Zeng Jiyun's mind was in a mess, and for a moment it was as if he had lost all his support, sat down on the couch, and curled up weakly."
Don't worry, since Brother Qiao has promised you, he will definitely not break his promise.You will live in my mansion during this time, and I will send someone to the dock to inform Yuan Yusheng and ask him to go back and tell your father that he knows, so that he can feel at ease. ”Qiao Zhiqing patted Zeng Jiyun's fragrant shoulder, and as he spoke, he went out of the door and explained to the soldiers outside the door."
Let's go, you finally came to Suzhou, and Brother Qiao will take you out to eat some good things."
Qiao Zhiqing turned around and entered the house, but Zeng Jiyun was still curled up on the couch in a daze.Qiao Zhiqing smiled bitterly, stretched out his right hand and greeted Zeng Jiyun."
What are you going to eat, and you're going to drink tofu brain" Zeng Jiyun sobbed a few times with teary eyes, pouting and looking at Qiao Zhiqing with no interest."
Let's go, he is a chef from the capital, I finally abducted him to Suzhou, I guarantee that you must not have eaten."
Qiao Zhiqing invited again, but this time he directly stepped forward and grabbed her little hand, and went out of the house without saying anything.At this time, it coincided with the temple fair in Suzhou, and after the autumn harvest, the surrounding farmers also rushed to the city to catch the market, and the people came and went compared to the last time Zeng Jiyun came, it was more lively.Zeng Jiyun is a girl after all, and after walking on the street for a while, a cheerful smile gradually appeared on her face, and she looked left and right with curiosity about everything."
Brother Qiao, Suzhou is becoming more and more prosperous now, compared to the lifeless Nanjing, I don't know how much more lively, if every place in the Qing Dynasty was like Suzhou, how good it would be."
Zeng Jiyun let out a sullen breath, and didn't want to worry about things for the time being, standing in front of a small vendor, his eyes widened with curiosity.Anyway, Qiao Zhiqing has promised her to find a way, so he will definitely do what he says."
Girl, buy one, it's delicious."
The vendor magically flipped the bamboo sticks in his hands back and forth, wrapped them layer by layer, and finally became the size of Zeng Jiyun's head."
Brother Qiao, I want to eat this."
Zeng Jiyun smiled and turned his head to Qiao Zhiqing.Qiao Zhiqing smiled and took out a tael of silver from his arms and threw it to the vendor, surprised the vendor half to death, and hurriedly held the silver and pleaded with Qiao Zhiqing, "Master, you are a difficult villain, how can the villain have so much change to find you here, you better change a small money." ”"You don't have to look for it, he is not short of money."
Before Zeng Jiyun could speak, he took it from the vendor's hand and made a call for Qiao Zhiqing."
Take it, and I'll give you the rest."
Qiao Zhiqing laughed dryly, glared at the loser, and shouted at the vendor."
Thank you, uncle, thank you."
The peddler hurriedly clasped his fists in salute, and his eyes were about to pop out with excitement.He only earns five or six taels of silver a month, and now he earns one or two taels of silver, how can he not be excited.Qiao Zhiqing's mind was thinking more than that, the hawker's words just now also woke up Qiao Zhiqing.It is indeed inconvenient to use silver and copper coins as currency, and who has nothing to do will carry so much silver and copper coins to the street.Nowadays, paper money has become popular in most of the capitalist countries in the world, not to mention the convenience of use, but also to facilitate the government to better regulate the economy."
Brother Qiao, what are you thinking, do you feel sorry for your silver" Zeng Jiyun ate it in a big gulp, holding Qiao Zhiqing's hand like a child, jumping up and down and humming a little song, looking around.Seeing that Qiao Zhiqing didn't speak for a long time, he asked teasingly."
Yes, it's all your ruined girl, and you bought one for one or two silver.For many poor people in Suzhou, the living expenses are one or two silver a month. ”Qiao Zhiqing sighed and patted her little head with a chuckle."
Brother Qiao is really from Shanxi, and he is slamming the door."
Zeng Jiyun stuck out her tongue at him, made a grimace and jumped forward and walked away.Qiao Zhiqing shook his head helplessly at this innocent little girl, and finally took her to a newly built food street.Suzhou's distinctive snack stalls are also concentrated here, the whole street is a mile long, on both sides are antique two-storey buildings, blue bricks, gray tiles and white walls, very Jiangnan water town flavor.The upper floor is used for people, and the lower floor is used for entertaining guests.There is a white marble archway more than three meters high erected at the entrance of the street, and the archway is engraved with three big characters of food city."
Wow, that's so much to eat."
Zeng Jiyun followed Qiao Zhiqing into the food city as soon as he was shocked by the food houses on both sides of the street."
Let's go, treat your stomach well today, you can eat whatever you want."
Qiao Zhiqing patted Zeng Jiyun's head and walked inside with her.Last month, he received news that a belly popping from the capital officially opened for business in Suzhou City, and the taste was very authentic.Qiao Zhiqing guessed and understood that Lao Zhang, who he met in the capital, must have come to Suzhou.However, because he has been busy with official business, he has not come to see him.Zeng Jiyun was also dazzled, and the food houses on both sides of the street almost gathered the country's famous snacks.Even the mutton steamed buns from Shaanxi and the knife-cut noodles from Shanxi can be seen here, not to mention the special delicacies from all over the south of the Yangtze River.The shopkeeper at the booth shouted enthusiastically, with a smile on his face."
Brother Qiao, I'll follow you, I'll eat whatever you eat."
Zeng Jiyun smelled the aroma of rice and drooled for a long time, and wanted to taste everything, so Qiao Zhiqing simply made the decision.Qiao Zhiqing searched left and right for a while, and finally saw the signboard of "Belly Bursting" in the middle of the street, and hurriedly pulled Zeng Jiyun over with a smile."

Burst, belly, Zhang, what is bursting belly" Zeng Jiyun stood at the door and read the three big characters on the mahogany signboard, and raised his head curiously to look at Qiao Zhiqing."
You will know when you taste it, it is the belly of a cow or a sheep."
Qiao Zhiqing pointed at Zeng Jiyun's stomach and smiled badly."
Ah, it's disgusting, this thing can be eaten" Zeng Jiyun covered her mouth and waved her hand in disgust, and as soon as the words fell, she saw a middle-aged boss come out of the house, and greeted the two with a smile on his face."
Two guest officers, please come inside."
The boss didn't finish speaking, he frowned and looked at Qiao Zhiqing and recognized it, and hurriedly shouted in surprise, "Engong, it's really you, I found you." ”"Brother Zhang, it's really you, I didn't come to cheer you on when you opened."
Qiao Zhiqing smiled and entered the store with Lao Zhang's support.Zeng Jiyun was stupidly stunned outside, looking at Qiao Zhiqing and the boss's enthusiastic appearance, and muttered to himself in his heart, "Brother Qiao is really interesting, he is not a brother and sister who sells tofu brains, and now he has a relationship with a belly seller, and the people who sell food in the world are about to become his relatives." ”"Brother Zhang, I didn't expect you to really come from Beijing, the rent here is not expensive, how much surplus is there in a month" Qiao Zhiqing and Zeng Jiyun asked with concern after sitting down on the square wooden table."
Thanks to you, if you hadn't woken me up in Beijing, I'd still be being bullied at the front door.The rent of the shop here is not expensive, only five taels of silver a month.But the flow of customers is very large, I have just opened here for more than a month, and I have already earned nearly 50 taels of silver. ”Lao Zhang excitedly raised his hand with Qiao Zhiqing, and his teeth were about to fall off with laughter
