The vegetables in the field began to ripen one after another, and before dawn on the sixth day, Xiao Yao took Steward Liu and five Zhuang Ding to the field with torches to pick vegetables, and at dawn, they picked six baskets of fresh vegetables according to the ordered number, and passed the scales on the ground, so that Steward Liu could register it.
Among these dishes, only the spicy ones are picked less.
Because the amount ordered is very small.
Xiao Yao asked the two carriages hired from other villages last night to load the vegetables, and she and Xiaocui took their own cars to deliver the vegetables in person, of course, the main thing was to see if the vegetable shop had been found.
When Xiao Yao arrived in the capital with three cars, it was only past nine o'clock in the morning. went around the capital for a long time, and sent the twelve vegetables to the house one by one, of course, Xiao Yao did not come forward in person, and all the negotiations were made for Xiao Cui to get out of the car and do it.
Especially in the mansion of the sixth old prince, she didn't even let Xiaocui go, and asked Liu Laosan, who was driving the car, to go to the house to deliver the dishes and settle the account.
She was afraid that she would accidentally run into Zhao Ruiyun.
After delivering the ordered dishes from various prefectures, she came to Shixian Pavilion with the car, and Boss Sun also ordered more than 60 catties of vegetables from her, Xiao Yao decided to charge only half of the money and give him the other 20 catties in order to repay Boss Sun's favor of staying overnight and inviting him to eat.
Xiao Yao has always been the character of her previous life, and she doesn't want to owe favors to others.
After delivering the food, Xiao Yao sent the hired car back, and took Xiaocui to see Boss Sun, who pushed for a long time and finally accepted Xiao Yao's thanks very happily.
Xiao Yao asked about the vegetable shop, and Boss Sun said that Ya Yu had already introduced a place, and it was not bad for him to take a look, so he could not decide until Xiao Yao came to see it.
Xiao Yao couldn't wait for lunch and was about to go to see it, so Boss Sun called Ya Yu to accompany Xiao Yao to see the shop in person.
The shop is not far from the downtown area, but not on the main street, the door is two very wide façade rooms, there is a side door next to it, inside is a small courtyard with two entrances, the first yard has a kitchen, a well, a firewood room, two side rooms, two warehouses.
Further inside, there are three main rooms, two wings and a small courtyard.
The house is still relatively new, and you can live in it if you clean it.
Xiao Yao liked it at first glance, and asked Ya Yu, is this house rented or sold?
As soon as he heard that there was a door, he said with a smile on his face: "Childe, this house was bought by a southern businessman to make a rice shop, and it has not been very good, and he has gone back to his hometown in the south, let me help find a buyer, I want to sell it, but he also said that he is alive, if he can't sell it, it can be rented first." ” Xiao Yao asked, "What is the price of selling?"
What is the rent?
” Boss Sun on the side said: "Li Yayu, this Xiao Gongzi is my relative, you don't want to die, honestly bargain, I will give you a favor." ” Li Yayu nodded and said, "How dare I deceive the people brought by Boss Sun?"
The owner said that he would sell 120 taels of silver, and he gave the buyer the goods on the counter in the shop and the furniture and stove in the back house.
If you rent it, you will pay one or two halves of silver a month, and the furniture will be used for free. ” Xiao Yao didn't know if the price was reasonable, so he asked for Boss Sun's opinion with his eyes, Boss Sun nodded slightly, such a small courtyard is not even worth fifty taels in other places, but this is the capital, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, the price of housing and land is naturally different, and another is a façade with housing, not a pure house in a small alley, of course the price will be much higher, as long as one hundred and twenty taels of silver, or because the façade is not on the main street, if it is on the main street, one hundred and fifty taels cannot be bought.
Xiao Yao immediately decided to buy it, and said to Li Yayu that he would pay the money with one hand and handle the deed transfer procedures with the other hand.
Li Yayu happily agreed, this was the fastest deal he had ever made.
Back at the Immortal Pavilion, Xiao Yao hastily ate some food, and then said goodbye to Boss Sun and left.
Xiao Yao did not let the carriage go out of the city, but asked Liu Laosan to rush to the mansion of the sixth old prince.
Xiao Yao looked at Xiao Cui with a puzzled face, and said with a smile: "Xiao Cui wants to see the old man?"
” Xiao Cui's eyes widened in shock, thinking that Xiao Yao wanted to open and wanted to see Young Master Yun, so she immediately smiled and encouraged, "Yes!"
It's been a long time since I've seen Young Master Yun, so I don't know how he's doing now. ” Xiao Yao rolled her eyes angrily, sighed and said, "Alas!
What a conscience!
On weekdays, the sisters who always say that they want to Qixia Courtyard, but today they arrived at Qiuyue's house, but they only thought about Young Master Yun, where are there sisters in their eyes. ” Xiao Cui blushed suddenly, and shouted: "Miss has the most conscience!
I'm not for Miss yet, who said I didn't think about Qiuyue, I dreamed of her last night. ” Xiao Yao saw that Xiaocui was serious, and said with a smile: "Oh, you are too godly, I knew last night that I was going to see Qiuyue today, so Miss Ben will be kind and let you meet each other."
Xiao Cui happily said, "Great!
That's great!
” Xiao Yao told her that before leaving the Qin Palace, she asked Qiu Yue about their wishes one by one, if nothing else, Qiu Ju and Xia He's wishes may have been realized now, only Qiu Yue's wishes, she has not helped her realize them, today is to ask her if she has changed her wishes, if not, she will help her realize her wishes in the next two days: redeem herself and leave the house, and the family will be reunited.
Xiaocui is happy for Qiuyue, while worrying about Miss, she has been in charge of Miss's money, before leaving, the two have a total of three hundred and fifty taels of silver, and the princess twenty-four taels, these months to Liu Steward They send monthly money, pay for all of their meals, and just arrived at the farm to buy some bedding, clothes and other daily necessities spent some money plus the cost of hiring a car and some reward money, only a few months can not go in and out, only three hundred taels of silver will be left in hand, just now Miss decided to buy the shop, tomorrow to spend another one hundred and twenty taels, With the transfer of ownership and the money to reward the tooth couple, there are only more than 100 taels left, and the young lady will take out this money to redeem the Qiuyue family, and she really has no money in her hands, she told Xiao Yao about her worries, Xiao Yao has already calculated in her heart, and knows that there is not much left, but she always relies on Boss Sun's restaurant, Xiao Yao feels that it is not a problem, if you want to sell the products of the farm, you must have a foothold in the capital, and you must have a reliable person to take care of the business in the capital, as early as when you asked Qiuyue about the situation at home, Xiao Yao has already started to plan, and now that the shop has been negotiated, there is a shortage of shop operators, redeeming Qiuyue's family, not only helping Qiuyue realize her wish, but also finding a reliable helper for herself, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?
As for the money, if it is not enough, you can borrow a little from Boss Sun first, as long as the vegetables sell well, you will soon earn it back, just today's 100 catties of tomatoes, 100 catties of eggplant, 80 catties of zucchini, 60 catties of cucumbers and 10 catties of peppers, remove the 20 catties sent to the restaurant.
A total of 14 taels of silver was sold, and the cost of hiring a car was only 30 yuan per car.
As long as the new dishes spread in these powerful homes, are you still afraid that the money will not be made back?
After making up her mind, Xiao Yao said to Xiao Cui: "You don't have to worry about money, you just need to bring Qiuyue out of the mansion for me."
You must do as I have taught you, and you must not be exposed. ” Xiao Yao asked Liu Laosan to park the car in a small alley not far from the Sixth Old Prince's Mansion, and Xiaocui got out of the car alone and walked towards the door of the Prince's Mansion.
When she came to the door, Xiao Cui, dressed in men's clothes, said generously to the two big brothers guarding the door in front of the door: "Two big brothers, hard work, I am the cousin of Qiuyue, the personal maid of the second young master of the house, please send her a message to let her come out to see me, just say that her aunt wants to give her cousin Xiaocui a hairpin according to the phoenix hairpin she bought in Qixia Courtyard."
After saying that, without waiting for the two janitors to impatiently drive him away, he took out two hangs of money from his sleeves and stuffed them into the hands of the two.
The two immediately changed their faces, one went in to pass the word, and the other gossiped with him.
Xiao Cui anxiously looked into the door of the mansion, and there was no sentence in her mouth to deal with the gatekeeper, Xiao Cui was worried that Qiu Yue would not understand the meaning of the words and would not come out to see her, and she was afraid that she would be recognized by Zhao Ruiyun by him, and she couldn't explain to the young lady, and her heart was up and down.
After waiting for a long time, Xiao Cui saw the janitor who went in to pass the word leading a woman in pink clothes to hurry out, Xiao Cui took a closer look, wasn't it Qiu Yue?

I secretly admired Miss's cleverness and Qiu Yue's cleverness, and I understood it as soon as I heard it.
Qiu Yue saw a man from afar looking into the door, and thought excitedly, Zhun Bao is Xiaocui, or is he so anxious.
When they arrived at the door, the two looked at each other, tears were rolling in their eyes, and they couldn't say a word. coughed loudly to show his dissatisfaction and reminder of their immorality.
Qiu Yue and Xiao Cui came back to their senses, Xiao Cui took out two more pieces of money from her sleeve and gave them to the janitor, and said to them that she wanted to borrow a step from her cousin, Qiu Yue said to them, I will go out with my cousin for a while, and tomorrow I will ask my brother to invite you to drink, and after speaking, regardless of whether they agree or not, pull Xiao Cui and leave.
The janitor behind him smacked his tongue, this autumn moon is really bold enough, and there is no defense between men and women.
After walking one or twenty steps, Qiu Yue whispered: "Xiaocui, you and Miss are really ruthless, so you left quietly, I cried with Qiu Ju and Sister Xia He for several days, thinking that I would never see you in my life."
I just heard the doorkeeper say that my cousin came to see me, I was blinded, I don't have a cousin, but as soon as he said Qixiayuan and Fengchai, I guessed that it was you and Miss, only you know about Fengchai.
My heart was about to jump out of my joy, and I asked my wife for leave and ran out.
I've seen you from afar, we have seen you and Miss in men's clothes in Qixia Academy, and if you want to change someone else, you may not recognize you.
With that, tears fell straight down.
Xiaocui smiled on her face, tears couldn't stop flowing, and she choked up and said, "Miss and I miss you too, and Miss can't help it, she is afraid that Lord Wang and Young Master Yun won't let her go."
This time it was Miss who asked me to come to you, Miss is waiting in the alley in front, let's go quickly, otherwise Miss should be in a hurry.
The two wiped their tears and hurried to the entrance of the alley.
Xiaocui led Qiuyue to the car, Qiuyue saw Xiao Yao and quickly knelt down to salute, called Miss in her mouth, and tears flowed down, Xiao Yao quickly helped her up, and tears couldn't help but fall.
Xiaocui hurriedly said on the side that it was a pleasure to meet, and she didn't want to cry.
Xiao Yao took out a handkerchief to wipe Qiu Yue's tears, and asked, "Are you okay after Xiaocui and I left?"
The prince and the second young master of your family are not embarrassed for you, right?
” Qiu Yue said with tears in her eyes: "We just can't bear you, crying for several days, the prince and the second young master are not difficult for us, but they are very sad, my second young master left home to find you at that time, and then the king of Qi rebelled at the border pass, and the emperor issued several edicts to call him back, and now he is leading troops to quell the rebellion at the border pass." ” When Xiao Yao heard that Zhao Ruiyun was looking for her, she sighed in her heart that she was really an idiot!
Hearing the rebellion of King Qi, he couldn't help but be stunned, and blurted out: "Which King of Qi?"
” Qiu Yue said with a look of resentment: "It's the murder of the first emperor, the third prince Zhao Ruixing, who wants to usurp the throne, he is really bad!"
” The shock in Xiao Yao's heart was indescribable, she watched Zhao Ruixing die with her own eyes, how could she be alive again?
Still rebelling?
It's incredible!
Zhao Ruixing played everyone!
On second thought, this is a matter between their brothers, and it has nothing to do with them anyway.
So he quickly changed the topic and said, "How about Qiu Ju and Xia He?"
Have you ever been married into the door by the prince?
” Qiu Yue replied: "The prince has become the emperor, Qiu Ju and Xia He have been sealed Zhaoyi and brought into the palace, I have never seen them again, it should be good." ” Xiao Yao smiled and said, "They finally got their wish."
Qiuyue, has your wish changed?
Do you still want to redeem yourself and buy a small yard for your parents, so that the family can live a reunion?
” Qiu Yue saw that Miss still remembered her wish, her eyes were red again, and she held back her tears and said, "It hasn't changed!"
I've been saving money to redeem myself. ” Xiao Yao asked, "Have you thought about what to do after redeeming yourself?"
What is your brother and sister-in-law doing in the house now?
” Qiu Yue said honestly: "My brother has always wanted to do some small business, he used to be a little boy who studied with the eldest young master, and secretly learned to write, and now he is doing some bookkeeping work with the housekeeper in the house, and his sister-in-law is cooking in the kitchen." ” Xiao Yao was secretly happy when she heard this, and asked Qiu Yue: "If I find your brother an errand to do business, and let him be the shopkeeper for me, do you think he is willing to do it?"
” Qiu Yue didn't want to think about it and said immediately: "Of course I did it!"
Give Miss an officer, what else does he not do?
My brother heard me tell him about us making money by frying the base in Qixia Courtyard, and I admired you very much, and said that I met a nobleman. ” Xiao Yao had a bottom in her heart, and said to Qiu Yue seriously: "Qiu Yue, I asked you about your wish because I was leaving, and I want to thank you for taking good care of me in Qixia Courtyard.
I helped Qiu Ju and Xia He fulfill their wishes, and I couldn't fulfill your wishes at the time, but I always remembered it in my heart.
Now I can help you fulfill your wish, you go home today to discuss with your parents, brother and sister-in-law, I have seen a shop in Taiping Street in the capital, there is a house and a yard behind, I will pay to buy it tomorrow, you can move there as soon as you redeem yourself, you ask your brother to quickly ask a few of you how much the redemption money is, I will bring it tomorrow, if you want, I will find a person to pretend to be a relative of your family to redeem you, and the business of the shop will be handed over to your brother to take care of.
What do you think?
” Qiu Yue's face turned red when she heard this, and she knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Yao, and said in her mouth: "Miss, I don't know what to say Thank you, I will kowtow to you on behalf of my family." ” Xiao Cui and Xiao Yao hurriedly pulled Qiu Yue up, Xiao Cui smiled and said, "Qiu Yue, have you forgotten that Miss has always disliked people kowtowing to her?"
” Qiu Yue smiled embarrassedly when she heard this, and said to Xiao Yao: "Miss, don't worry, my brother and sister-in-law and parents are very cautious people, and they will definitely do a good job of the things you give them, and they will never live up to Miss's kindness." ” Xiao Yao told Qiu Yue that she couldn't let anyone know anything about her, including her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law, who had to keep it a secret for herself, and she liked her free life now and never wanted to go back to her old life.
Although Qiu Yue couldn't fully understand Xiao Yao's thoughts, she knew that Miss had her own reason, so she solemnly agreed.
Xiao Yao made an appointment with her to meet tomorrow at a time and place, and asked her to hurry back to the house, so as not to arouse suspicion, and she took Xiaocui to the farm as soon as possible.
On the way, Xiao Yao was a little depressed, and scolded Zhao Ruiyun in his heart for being a fool and Zhao Ruixing for being a cunning fox!

She made it clear in her letter: if she does not want to live a restrictive life, she will never marry him.
He didn't know if there was a worm in his brain, he got into the water, and he had to find himself.
It seems that he is quite cruel, and he is really angry.
Xiao Cui secretly observed Miss's expression, knowing that Qiu Yue said that if Young Master Yun went to find Miss, Miss still cared, Xiao Cui just couldn't understand, Young Master Yun was beautiful, and he was so good to Miss that he had nothing to say, so Miss was not satisfied with it, so she had to leave.
Miss Age should have gotten married a long time ago, but she was not in a hurry at all, she was busy with the affairs of the farm all day long, not afraid of hardship, not afraid of tiredness, and happy every day, I really don't know what she was thinking.
The next day, Xiao Yao got up early in the morning again, asked Xiaocui to bring the two of them new bedding and all the silver, and asked Liu Laosan to drive to the city.
After having breakfast at a small restaurant in the city, the three of them came to the shop on Taiping Street, Li Yayu had been waiting there with a black and thin man in his thirties, Li Yayu introduced that this is the younger brother of the owner of the shop, and he is also doing business in the capital, mainly in the tea business, Xiao Yao arched his hand to him, and the man also returned the salute.
Xiao Yao asked Xiao Cui to give him one hundred and twenty taels of silver, and the man handed over the house deed and land deed to Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao left Xiao Cui to take care of the house, and took his own carriage with Li Yayu and the younger brother of the main family to go to the yamen to go through the formalities.
After the formalities were completed, Xiao Yao gave Li Yayu a thank you gift of one or two silver, Li Yayu closed his mouth happily, and said vigorously: "If you have something in the future, just look for me!"
” Xiao Yao took the carriage and rushed back to the shop.
The diligent Xiaocui had already rolled up her sleeves and started working, and when she saw the young lady coming back, she quickly asked her to sit in the front shop, saying that the dust in the back room was too much.
Xiao Yao also wanted to participate in the cleaning, but was sternly rejected by Xiao Cui, but Xiao Cui did not let Liu Laosan go, and commanded him to do everything he could, turning around the yard like a spinning top.
Xiao Yao snickered on the side.
