Chapter 122 Something is wrong

Chapter 122 Something’s not right

After all, money is not something that can be spent and given away casually. For him, Xing'an, let alone Miss Su, Miss Li, or Miss Tang, he would not spend the money he had saved so hard.

Just send it out!

Xing'an thought so much that he was thoughtful on the way to pour He Yanxiu a cup of hot tea.

As a result, on the way, she almost bumped into Shuixing, the little girl who was assigned to serve Su Yujin in the backyard.

"I'm sorry." Xing'an hurriedly apologized. When he saw Shuixing, who was the most beautiful among the maids, he hurriedly asked with concern, "What's wrong? Your eyes are swollen, but what kind of injustice have you suffered?

"

Water apricot brings happiness and happiness.

I was originally serving in the courtyard, and I met Xing'an a lot during this period. Xing'an was lively and joking, so the maids were not shy with him.

At this time, Shuixing also wiped her red eyes with a handkerchief, "I lost a hairpin for no reason. I can't find it no matter how hard I look for it. I bought that hairpin by saving half a year's worth of money."

Mentioning this matter, Shuixing felt more and more aggrieved, and her tears began to fall.

Seeing Shuixing crying so sadly, Xing'an said hurriedly, "I thought it was something. It turned out that I just lost a hairpin. It just so happened that I got some reward from the second master today, so I will buy you a hairpin. Will you be happy?"

"

"Really?" Shuixing was surprised and happy when she heard this.

"Of course it's true, so why should I make fun of you? Besides, it's not hundreds or even thousands of taels that I'm joking with you, it's just a few taels of silver, so why should I make you happy?"

As Xing'an spoke, he took out a piece of silver from his arms and gave it to Shuixing, "You should feel relieved now."

Shuixing laughed through tears, but he hesitated when weighing the money. After thinking for a while, he took the money back, "I still can't accept it..."

"Why not?" Xing'an said with a smile, "We have been together for so long. It's fate. You are younger than me. I want you to be my sister. Isn't it enough for my brother to buy a hairpin for my sister?"

"Or are you afraid of accepting this money to buy hairpins because you're afraid that I might have plans for you?"

When he said this, Xing'an winked, as if he was joking, which made Shuixing giggle and cover his face with a handkerchief, "If that's the case, then I'm shameless enough to accept it?"

"Take it, take it. Don't cry again in the future. It's ugly when you cry. It's not as good as smiling now."

Go get Second Master a cup of hot tea."

"Then you're busy." Shuixing pursed her lips and smiled, then left in small steps.

Seeing Shuixing walking happily, Xing'an scratched his scalp and smiled.

This silly girl looks really pretty when she's having a good time.

I am happy to buy it with these few taels of silver, which is quite comfortable.

It just seems like something is not quite right...

Here, Su Yujin worked in the small kitchen for half an hour before putting the grilled fish on the table.

The whole fish is cut open from the middle and spread completely on the baking pan. The sauce is rich and fragrant after boiling. Due to the constant heating of the fish in the baking pan, the fish and the sauce are fully integrated, making every bite delicious.

It is delicious, but this wonderful taste does not cover up the fragrance of the fish itself.

There are a lot of side dishes, including chewy fish balls, crispy lotus root slices, bean-flavored bean curd sticks, and a few refreshing green vegetables. You won't feel too boring when eating grilled fish.

And this grilled fish is not that the first bite tastes amazing, and then tastes more and more mediocre, but the first bite feels great. The longer it is simmered on charcoal fire, the more delicious the grilled fish tastes.

It’s also tastier.

Served with Su Yujin’s crispy sesame seed cakes...

After He Yanxiu finished eating the grilled fish, he felt that his belt was a little tight.

So much so that after eating, I didn't stay too long at Su Yujin's place, and just hurried back to my room to relax more.

Even before going to bed at night, I was tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep. I had to take a long walk in the yard to eat enough before going to bed.

The next day, Xing'an followed He Yanxiu's instructions and bought pens, inks, pigments, rice paper and other things for painting, and placed them on the desk in He Yanxiu's house.

Making a painting is a matter of energy and time. He Yanxiu has to deal with many things on weekdays, so he has to paint a few strokes in his spare time.

In order not to let others know what He Yanxiu was painting, he closed the door tightly and announced that he had important matters to deal with and that outsiders were not allowed to enter.

Therefore, in the eyes of others, He Yanxiu became a dedicated person who was busy with affairs all day long and could not even take a break.

Especially Su Yujin.

Whenever I see Xing'an guarding the door, I know that He Yanxiu is busy with other things besides the affairs he handles at the government office.

No wonder the second master was able to serve as a high-ranking official at such a young age, and his official career was so fast. I think besides his family background, it had a lot to do with the second master's diligence.

Hard-working people are often respected and loved by others. This was the case for Su Yujin at this time. She felt very distressed and tried her best to cook many delicious dishes for He Yanxiu.

Stir-fried mutton, vegetarian stir-fried assorted vegetables, dry pot shrimps, lettuce in sauce, braised lotus root ribs, braised eggplant, eight-treasure tofu skin lucky bag, pork belly chicken, braised eight delicacies...

He Yanxiu was very satisfied with his meal and felt that his decision to paint was a wise choice.

Since the opening of the first Chuan Chuan Xiang shop, Su Yujin heard that the business was booming and the shop was packed with guests every day. Even when the weather was bad, it was still the shop with the best business on the whole street.

Su Yujin was quite happy after hearing this.

After all, the first Chuan Chuan Xiang store had a good business, then the second Chuan Chuan Xiang store, the third Chuan Chuan Xiang store...and even the fiftieth Chuan Chuan Xiang store could do very well, and her financial freedom could be realized.

It seems that when I return to Qinghe County, I will have to burn incense from time to time and pray for blessings and other things to bless these branches to open smoothly one by one.

After a few days of busy work, Su Yujin prepared the first batch of pills for He Yanxiu.

The pills are about the size of a soybean and should be taken three times a day, one pill each time.

These pills are all put into porcelain bottles. One bottle contains nine pills, which is enough for three days.

Su Yujin made the first batch of seven bottles and gave it to He Yan to repair five bottles.

"These porcelain bottles are all written with numbers from one to five. When Er Ye eats, he starts from the first bottle to facilitate memory and calculation. These porcelain bottles are sealed with wax and can be stored for a long time. Just don't put them in a place that is too hot.

"

The weather was not hot enough at this time, but He Yanxiu often went into the mountains to check the smelting conditions of the copper mines, and would probably come into contact with extremely hot stoves from time to time. Su Yujin thought it would be better to give him a warning.

Xing'an: Something's not quite right.

He Yanxiu: If something is wrong, then it will be right.
