Chapter 724
Bai Yunxi took his own agreement, took the key handed over by Mrs. Hu, went back to the shop and called Shang Wenyou, the two of them returned the inn together, brought daily necessities with them, and bought bedding for several people along the way.

Back in Zaoshu Hutong, I first put the quilts to dry in the yard, rolled up my sleeves and started cleaning, cleaning everything inside and out.

This time I came to the county to do business, and I brought a complete set of things. Mrs. Du even packed the bowls they used, which saved a lot of trouble.

After working for an hour, Bai Yunxi clapped his hands and it was done.

Compared with staying in a hotel, it is more cost-effective to rent a farmhouse, the key is to live comfortably.

"This yard is fairly quiet." Wen You wiped her hands and said softly.

"It's just a coincidence." Bai Yunxi also concealed it, and directly narrated what happened to Wen You.

Looking at the well in the yard, Baiyunxi asked Wenyou to fetch some water, and while she was free, made a few more pieces of ice, put them in the house at night, and had a good night's sleep.
After finishing their work, the two went to the alley to eat two servings of noodles, and brought a bowl for everyone.

From afar, I saw a long queue at the door of the shop.
Many of them are the dresses of girls and women, no need to ask, they must have been bought from the master of the family.
"It's almost as expected, thanks to the publicity of those students."

Wenyou pulled the carriage aside, and the two missed the crowd and entered the shop. Ice cubes were placed in the room, which was cool and refreshing.Even so, a layer of sweat appeared on the foreheads of the busy people.

"Aunt Bai, you're here." Zhang Yishan, who was in charge of collecting the money, saw Bai Yunxi, greeted her with a smile, and wiped her forehead with a handkerchief.

"I bought some noodles, you go and have a bite first, I will be the shopkeeper for you."
"I'm not hungry, I ordered some snacks just now." Zhang Yishan pointed to Ginkgo who was busy in the kitchen, "The girl brought it to me, and I just shared it with my sister-in-law."

"If you are not hungry, you have to fill your stomach. If you have an empty stomach for a long time, you will suffer from problems. This job is not done in a day or two. How can you consume your energy every day?"

Bai Yunxi urged, and Wenyou also took over Du's work, and asked the two to go to eat first.

Taking advantage of the gap, Xiao Si put a bowl of noodles into his stomach, and immediately asked Mrs. Deng to eat.

Watching them busy, Bai Yunxi wondered if he should find two more temporary helpers?
The ingredients prepared today were twice as much as yesterday, and it was still over before the application time.

Seeing some people return in disappointment, Xiao Si could only comfort him with a smile, telling them to come earlier tomorrow.

Bai Yunxi and Yishan were still sitting together counting money, today's box of copper coins is almost full, counting down, 420 pennies and [-] pennies.

After excluding the cost, there is a profit of nearly twelve.

"Wow, Aunt Bai, if we do this every day, we will get rich soon."

"Pfft~, don't let your mother hear this, or she'll have to talk about you again. Look at what you're wearing. You look like a pretty girl. No matter how you look at it, it's not like you're short of money."

Listening to Bai Yunxi's teasing, Zhang Yishan chuckled.

"Auntie Bai is right. I dare not talk about it in front of my mother. Although my mother did not delay my food and clothing, the pocket money is limited. Speaking of it, my father is the most responsible. He always uses family money to subsidize the college. .”

Having said this, Zhang Yishan felt a slip of the tongue, her face turned red,
Hearing the little girl's complaint, Bai Yunxi shook his head helplessly,

"Little clever ghost, it's fine if you know these things, as long as you know in your heart that your parents love you the most. Look at your clothes and hair accessories, there are few people in the county who can compare to you."

"I have known this for a long time. My father always sympathizes with those poor students. They owe Xiu Shu, and it is true that because of the family's difficulties, my father does not want to bury his talent, so he always pays for them in advance."

Mother talked about these things so many times that her ears became numb.Although Niang often complained, she didn't stop her.Since my father became the dean, many students have benefited from his father.

Over time, she also got used to it.

Hearing the little girl's voice, Bai Yunxi couldn't help feeling that this is a great Confucian who is respected regardless of fame and fortune, and there will always be a few clean and honest people in the past dynasties.

After joking around, Bai Yunxi told Zhang Yishan about renting a house, patted her hand,

"If you want to find Aunt Bai in the future, you can go directly to the third Hu's house in Zaoshu Hutong. I rent it for two months."

"Huh? My mother also said before that we didn't treat Auntie Bai properly when she came to the county and didn't stay at home."

Zhang Yishan was surprised, and took Bai Yunxi's hand, "My house is big enough, why don't Aunt Bai rent a yard, live with me directly, okay?"

"Good boy, Aunt Bai has not been in the county for a day or two. Every family has something to do, so how can there be any reason to bother people every day? If Aunt Bai does this, she will be really annoying."

Bai Yunxi stretched out her hand to pin a strand of hair from her temples behind her ear, and chuckled softly,
"Besides, Aunt Bai still has to prepare the ingredients, and the clinking every day affects her rest. Everyone has their own work and rest habits. Once they are disrupted, the body will easily feel uncomfortable."

A few outsiders suddenly appeared in the space of my own life, and I could bear it for a short time, but after a long time, no one liked it.

Zhang Yishan listened and nodded half understanding, "Alright then, I respect Aunt Bai's decision."

"This is a good boy. If Miss Shan is interested, you can go and have a look with me."

Hearing Baiyunxi's proposal, Zhang Yishan's eyes lit up, she was about to agree, but then she thought about what her mother would tell her when she went out, so she changed the subject,
"Today, I'll go back and tell my mother that we will come to the door together later."

Aunt Bai told her mother about renting a house, and the two of them went together with presents, so as not to be nagged by mother again.

In this regard, Baiyunxi is not reluctant.

Give Mrs. Du the money to purchase ingredients again, and look directly at Mrs. Deng, "You are old, you have been busy all day, and you are also very tired. Buy today, let Mrs. Du and Xiaosi go. You and sister Shan go back to rest, and come back to help tomorrow morning .”

Mrs. Deng looked at Mrs. Du and Xiao Si, she had already familiarized them with the place yesterday, so there was really no need to follow.

"Thank you for your compassion for the old slave. This is the first time I have experienced such a busy business. I haven't been idle for most of the day. I am really tired and flustered."

Watching Zhang Yishan's master and servant go back in a mule cart, Xiaosi and Du Shi also took the carriage to buy ingredients.

Before leaving, Baiyunxi stopped him again, and told him not to go to the college to say hello to the concierge, Uncle Chang, and told him to tell Xiao Wu about renting the small courtyard.

The sun was setting, and half of the sky was red. I don't know when it will rain in this weather.

Another half month's delay, the crops in the field are estimated to be reduced.

Baiyunxi sighed, and walked down the street with Wenyou. There were many temporary vendors squatting on the street corners and under the shade of big trees, selling some home-grown vegetables and free-range chickens and ducks.
