Chapter 741 Laba Garlic
On the day of Laba Festival, Sima Yu was very busy, because there was a grand ceremony in the palace, and he had been busy since the first day of the lunar new year.
So early in the morning, Zhao Qiqi could only go back to the Duke's mansion by himself.
But when she realized that Chen Yuniang was actually calculating something with an abacus, she ran forward, "Mom... Auntie, what are you doing?"
Chen Yuniang flicked the beads for the last few times, and after writing a few words quickly, she touched Zhao Qiqi's little head and said, "Of course it's a debt collection. Look at the balance between our Baoshengtang's annual income and foreign debts." Kind of. We do business, and we have to count it every year during the Laba Festival.”
Zhao Qiqi suddenly realized that she had forgotten that this is one of the traditions of the Laba Festival, called Laba Suan.
She picked up the ledger and looked at it, "Are there so many debtors?"
Chen Yuniang smiled and nodded, "Some people forget to bring money when they come to buy medicine, so they just stay away. I didn't expect you to understand the account book..."
"Madam, everything is ready." The housekeeper and several servants carried three large boxes out.
Chen Yuniang got up with Zhao Qiqi in her arms, walked to the big box, opened it, looked at it, nodded and said: "Then you take the others and send them according to the list."
The steward replied respectfully: "Yes, madam."
"Hey, mother, what are these?" Zhao Bing pulled Zhao Xinxin out of the backyard and asked curiously, pointing to the three big boxes.
"That's Laba garlic, used to collect debts." Chen Yuniang explained.
At the end of the year, foreign debts will be recovered, but it is not easy to collect debts directly, so Laba garlic is used to remind debtors that they should prepare to pay back the money. This is a custom of merchants during the Laba Festival.
The servants each picked up a can of Laba garlic, and there was only one can left at the end. Zhao Qiqi stepped forward to pick it up and said, "Let me give this away."
Chen Yuniang was amused by her, "You are a little doll, how do you give it?"
Zhao Qiqi insisted, "I have Leng Shuang and they secretly protect me."
"That's right, look at me, I forgot that Xiao Jiu has a shadow guard. Well then, go and come back quickly."
After Chen Yuniang finished speaking, Zhao Bing and Zhao Xinxin both raised their hands, "I'm going too, I'm going too!"
Chen Yuniang shook her head and said, "Stay here and help your mother cook Laba porridge."
"Okay." The two little ones said with some frustration.
Zhao Qiqi picked up the can of Laba garlic, thumped out of the Duke's mansion, and got into the carriage prepared for her by the servant.
However, the carriage hadn't gone far when she felt a gust of wind lift the curtain of the carriage.Before she could react, she was picked up by someone.
The servant who drove the carriage didn't even notice what happened in the carriage.
Above the vast sky, Zhao Qiqi was forcibly hugged and sat on a giant blue dragon.
She wanted to throw Laba Suan at someone, but she was suppressed by spiritual power and couldn't do anything.
"Where are you taking me?!" Zhao Qiqi asked angrily.
Where did she provoke him? After using each other, why did he come to provoke her?
Nalan Wenxu didn't speak, he was very quiet, so quiet that Zhao Qiqi felt that he seemed to be in a bad mood.
Finally, Qinglong landed slowly.
Zhao Qiqi felt a little familiar, and looked around, isn't this just Wang Siya?
"What did you bring me here for?"
Nalan Wenxu didn't answer, but hugged her and sat on a big rock by the edge of the cliff, looking at Wang Siya quietly with a half smile.
When Zhao Qiqi felt that the flowers were all gone, Nalan Wenxu snatched the Laba garlic from her hand, opened the jar, and put one after another of the Laba garlic into his mouth.
Moreover, as he ate, it seemed that there was a trace of water mist in his eye sockets.
