Chapter 157

"What's the matter, lady?"

How could such a lofty ambition be born after a trip to the Cao Mansion?
Mrs. An, Liangren and Xiang Ling exchanged glances with each other, and the first reaction was that there was a rift between their wife and Mr. Cao.

"How could my lady suddenly have such thoughts?"

Xin Yi shook his head, "It's not a sudden thought, but I've thought about it for a long time, but I didn't have the opportunity or money before..."

Everyone was surprised and looked at Xin Yi worriedly.

And Zhou Daozi, who was at the single table in the tea room, hummed the little song more smoothly.

Xin Yi didn't explain much, and looked sideways at his lover, "I asked you to find out who the owner of the shop and house next door is, have you found out clearly?"

The beloved said slowly: "Sister, I'd better find another place. I'm sure I can't talk about the next door."

Xin Yi: "What's wrong?"

Liang Ren and Xiang Ling looked at each other, "The shop next door, the house and the yard are all Du Zhongqing's private property. I wondered that day, how could his dog's nose be so sensitive? We steamed spices at home, and he turned around and came to the door ..."

Is that Du Zhongqing's property?

No wonder I usually feel that the courtyard next door is gloomy, as if I have never seen the owner.

It turned out that the owner was that weird guy Du Zhongqing.

Xin Yi was surprised and suspicious, and a little dumbfounded.

"Shopkeeper Du has such a big family business, why don't you open a shop yourself, and go to the opposite side to be the shopkeeper for others?"

"Sister, the shop opposite is also surnamed Du." Xiang Ling reminded her.

"That's different." Xin Yi still had doubts in his heart, "Du's Incense Shop is not Du Zhongqing's property, it's just in his name, and the owner behind it is someone else."

"Really? But it's not surprising." My husband added another bowl of rice, sat down to eat, and said, "Du Zhongqing's weird temperament can only be called a name in the shop. My sister thought, If he is really allowed to run the incense shop, will the incense shop still be able to continue?"

Xiang Ling snorted unhappily: "Isn't Du's incense shop still operating as usual? Didn't anyone close it?"

"Didn't my sister say it? There is someone else in the club."

"No matter how you say it, last time he came to ask for Bai Duxuan, he was humiliated by his sister, so he won't rent the house to us again..."

"If you don't rent his house, where else can you rent it?"

Xin Yi's pharmacy has a good location, but apart from Du Zhongqing's next door, the other end is a big tile. They can't afford to rent that kind of place, and it's not so convenient to rent it any farther away.

"It's okay." Xin Yi didn't know what to think, and his eyes suddenly rolled up with a smile, "It's good that the house belongs to Shopkeeper Du. We have been neighbors for so long, isn't it easier to talk and more convenient?"

Several people looked at her puzzled.

Xin Yi blinked, and sold off first.

After she finished her meal, she asked her lover to close the doors and windows, then called several people to her room, took out several bank notes, and placed them in front of everyone.

"Money can turn ghosts, I don't believe that Du Zhongqing is the only one who has a grudge against money—"

Xin Yi held a large sum of money, and his heart was not peaceful.

The money, nominally Zhang Lu's compensation, is actually a hot potato.

Zhang Lu lost 50 yuan in vain, and this account will not only be charged to Fu Jiuqu's head.

Therefore, what she got was not only a huge amount of silver, but also a bomb that could kill her at any time.

As for whether Zhang Lu will retaliate and when, no one can tell, she has to guard against it.

Since ancient times, the common people's treatment of the powerful is no different from hitting a stone with an egg, or shaking a tree with a mayf...

She must not be cannon fodder foolishly...

That night, Xin Yi tossed and turned in bed.

One by one, one by one, she went through all the things in her head, got up the next day with panda eyes, called her beloved, and handed her a stack of bank notes in an envelope.

"You go to the Cao Mansion for me, and hand over the banknote to Mr. Cao."

The beloved squeezed the envelope and nodded.

Xin Yi said again: "Also, you ask Xiang Ling to prepare a few more side dishes at noon, and we invite shopkeeper Du to enjoy the meal."

The beloved was startled, and suddenly understood Xin Yi's thoughts.

For Du Zhongqing, it is not certain whether he will eat or not, but he will definitely come when he tastes the fragrance.

It doesn't matter whether he can make money if he has money, but if he has fragrance, he will definitely be able to.

After the husband left, Xin Yi silently closed the sandalwood box and sat alone for a long time.

Sometimes, like the three children, she felt that Fu Jiuqu was really a good person.But sometimes she felt that the king of Guangling County was unpredictable, friends and foes could not be distinguished... The large sum of money given to her was actually a problem for her, or it could be said to be some kind of test.

He gave the money.

He helped.

As for whether it can be done or not, it's all up to her.

If you have money, you have to spend your life.

Xin Yi hugged her big money tightly, "I will definitely do it."

~

At noon, Du Zhongqing came as scheduled, wearing a high-quality navy blue round-neck shirt, and stepped into the medicine hall cautiously, with a look of expectation and doubt.

"Master Du, this way please."

Xin Yi welcomed him into the dining hall, and let Xiang Ling serve tea, wine and food with a high expression.

"I don't drink, I don't drink." Du Zhongqing seemed to have a natural resistance to alcohol, and kept refusing, and then sat down and stared at Xin Yi, "Miss Zhang, Du just wants to know, where did the Duluxiang come from?" come..."

"The Kingdom of Chenla." Xin Yi looked at the idiot and smiled slightly.

She told the truth, "This incense is rare and expensive, and it came from a long distance. It is really a rare and good incense. Therefore, I only have this incense in my hand, nothing else..."

"Chenla Kingdom, Chenla Kingdom?"

Du Zhongqing read in a low voice.

It looked like he had sunk into his own world.

Seeing Du Zhongqing's strange reaction, Xin Yi pursed his lips slightly.

"My knowledge of incense is only superficial. I really don't know why Shopkeeper Du likes Duluxiang so much? This incense is a little bit unique. Compared with other incenses, how is it better?"

"It's different." Du Zhongqing said in a low voice, as if answering Xin Yi, but also as if talking to herself, "Because it's her smell, it's different."

her taste?which her?

Xin Yi raised his eyebrows, "Du Zhongqing and Duluxiang, do they have other connections?"

Du Zhongqing shook her head with lowered head and sighed, said no more, got up and said goodbye to Xin Yi.

"Thank you Mrs. Zhang for telling the truth, and Du will not bother me."

"Shopkeeper Du, haven't you eaten yet?"

"No. No, I won't eat."

Du Zhongqing was really ignorant of the world, he didn't seem to have thought about how Xin Yi invited him to dinner for no reason, and told her the source of Duluxiang, after finishing his words, he turned and left.

Xin Yi couldn't laugh or cry.

You can't play tricks with such a person.

To hit a straight ball.

"Stay shopkeeper Du. I want to rent the shop, house, and courtyard next door to you. I wonder if shopkeeper Du is willing?"

Du Zhongqing turned her head and looked at her, "Miss Zhang wants to rent my yard?"

Xin Yi: "Yes. I don't think shopkeeper Du has used it, and it's empty. Why don't you rent it to me and make the best use of it?"

Du Zhongqing thought about it, shook her head, "No rent."

Xin Yi thought he was still angry about what happened to Du Tuxiang that day, so he stepped forward and gave a deep bow.

"What happened last time was out of my villainous heart, because Wen Zi's death angered shopkeeper Du. Now that I think about it, things that you love and I don't want, really shouldn't be..."

"Wen Zi's death, why did you anger Du?" Du Zhongqing asked belatedly, "Du thought that Mrs. Zhang did that because she thought my bid was too low..."

Xin Yi: ...

Looking at Du Zhongqing's expression, there was no trace of hypocrisy, as if he really didn't know that Wen Zi was in love with him, because of him, she ruined her marriage and ran away from home.

Du Zhongqing didn't even know about the fact that everyone in Du's Fragrance Pharmacy knew about it?

Oh sin.

Xin Yi pursed his lips and smiled, "It's nothing, because Wen Zi's disappearance in your account is my unreasonable anger. I hope shopkeeper Du will let me rent the yard next door to me, how about it?"

"No rent." Du Zhongqing still said the same words, even his expression did not change, "I don't hold grudges against Mrs. Zhang, it's just that the yard is inconvenient to rent out."

After all, he strode away.

Xin Yi let out a cry, couldn't help but sighed helplessly.

What's the inconvenience of renting out?
Would rather keep it empty than rent it to others.

I have a family, a business and a shop, but I am a shopkeeper for others...

Du Zhongqing is really a weirdo.

~

Xin Yi had no hope for the courtyard next door. After lunch, he took San Nian and drove the donkey cart out, hoping to find a better place.

When Zhou Daozi heard that she was going to open a pharmaceutical research institute, he immediately made a decision to stay and help her. Therefore, Zhou Daozi and Mrs. An were in charge of the medicine hall, so it was safe and sound, and Xin Yi could leave to do his own business.

However, the city of Bianjing is busy with all kinds of businesses, and there are so many shops and buildings, but it is not easy to rent a good house with a good shop and a good location. Xinyi has looked at several places, but none of them are satisfactory, and none of them can compare with Xinyifang. .

Failed.

Xiao Sannian comforted her all the way.

"Mother, don't worry. Mr. Zhou said that things will be smooth when things are slow. If you don't rush or rush everything, you can get what you want."

Xin Yi smiled and tidied up the little jacket on her body, "Mr. Zhou said?"

San Nian nodded heavily, "Mr. Zhou is amazing. Mother, I don't want to find another husband, I just want to be my husband's apprentice. Mother, give him some money and let him accept me."

Xin Yi glanced at her.

"You think Mr. Zhou is a man who loves money?"

"Didn't Mother say that money can turn ghosts around?"

"But Mr. Zhou, isn't he a ghost?"

"Mother!" San Nian opened her eyes wide, and laughed in an instant, "Mother is so smart...Mother will definitely find a way."

"Little sycophants!"

The mother and daughter were talking, and the donkey cart had arrived at the gate of the medicine workshop.

Xin Yi let San Nian go in first, and he led the donkey to take it to the donkey shed in the backyard through the small gate.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Cao Yi standing silently behind him.

"Master Cao?" Xin Yi was startled, and smiled slightly, "Why is Master Cao here? Did you receive the...money?"

Cao Yi approached silently, stared at her for a long time, sighed, and handed the envelope to Xin Yi.

"You don't get paid for nothing. My lady is really ashamed to do this."

 The next update will be later, so let's pad our stomachs first.

  Come and see around five o'clock~ Meh!
