Chapter 104 Meeting, Money Distribution
A figure rushed towards Cheng Qiqi. Before Cheng Qiqi could react, everything went black, and the next moment, she saw a broken roof beam crashing down from the eaves.
It hit right where she had just been standing!
"Sister-in-law, are you alright?"
Jin Yanzhi asked anxiously.
Cheng Qiqi was still in shock when she glanced at Jin Yanzhi's hand, which was gripping her arm tightly. His large, well-defined hand made her arm look even smaller.
"I……"
Jin Yanzhi blushed and immediately let go of her hand.
"Luckily, your brother pulled you away, otherwise you would have been hit!"
Jin Xue'er also looked at Cheng Qiqi with concern.
"Yanzhi, are you alright?"
Lin Huilan excitedly ran over, grabbed Jin Yan and looked him up and down. Her exaggerated voice, high-pitched and thin, startled everyone!
"Young lady, I'm alright."
Jin Yanzhi changed the subject, saying, "These roof beams are too old. They weren't replaced when the roof was repaired before, which is too dangerous. We'll have someone replace them tomorrow."
Jin Yanzhi picked up the fallen roof beam and thought to himself, "I must replace the roof as soon as possible!"
Now he works with Jin Lizhi to sell pickled cabbage and pickled cabbage porridge, earning more than a thousand coins every day!
Over time, it adds up to a considerable sum of money!
The sugar shop sells white sugar water, dried oyster sauce, sugarcane vinegar, and fish balls. It was Jin Yanzhi who brought Zhuang Haichao along to sell them. Jin Yanzhi used to be a playboy, and now he's just shameless!
If people were unwilling to buy, Jin Yanzhi would offer them samples to try. With his shamelessness, his goods became incredibly popular in the county!
Lin Huilan stared at Jin Yanzhi's back. His panicked moment just now made her feel uneasy.
Why do these awful things keep happening one after another?
Jin Xueer doesn't want to get married.
Jin Yanzhi actually took a fancy to his widowed sister-in-law?
Outside the courtyard, Jin Mozhi, riding his horse, witnessed this scene, and his dark pupils dimmed slightly.
"Brother Chongshan, is this where the Crown Princess lives?"
A woman's voice lifted the curtain and saw the house with walls made of oyster shells. Her eyes reddened. The Crown Princess actually lived in such a dilapidated house!
"Yes."
The mountains echoed.
Cheng Qiqi seemed to hear a familiar voice. Her brows furrowed slightly, and she quickly walked towards the courtyard gate. When she saw the woman in the carriage lifting the curtain to get off, Cheng Qiqi felt as if she were hallucinating!
"Prince Princess!"
Chun Tao jumped off the carriage and ran towards Cheng Qiqi, crying, "Princess Consort, I've been looking for you so hard!"
Chun Tao sobbed and tried to kneel down, but Cheng Qiqi held her tightly.
"Chuntao, what brings you here?"
Cheng Qiqi stared in shock at the person who was holding her and crying.
She clearly received a contract of servitude, and now she's a free woman!
At the beginning of her exile, the silly girl used all the money Cheng Qiqi gave her to buy supplies and return it. So Cheng Qiqi had to secretly slip silver notes into her clothes!
The young girl was only fifteen years old. Having left the Marquis's mansion, she was all alone and helpless. If she didn't have any money to rely on, her life would probably be even more difficult.
"The Crown Princess..."
When Chuntao opened her mouth, she choked up and couldn't even speak.
Cheng Qiqi reached out to wipe away her tears, and helped her stand up, correcting her, "There is no such thing as a princess consort now, only Cheng Qiqi."
You are now a free person.
Undeniably, Cheng Qiqi was in a pleasant mood when she saw Chun Tao!
"World……"
As soon as Chuntao opened her mouth, it was blocked.
Chun Tao straightened up, wiped her eyes, and sobbed, "Young Madam, without you, there would be no Chun Tao today. I want to stay by your side!"
"Please, don't send me away!"
Chun Tao looked at Cheng Qiqi with teary eyes. She almost didn't get to see the Crown Princess!
"you……"
Cheng Qiqi couldn't utter a single word of refusal.
"Young Madam, when we met Chun Tao on the road, her caravan was being robbed by bandits, and she was almost kidnapped by them."
Chongshan spoke, still feeling a bit scared as he thought about what had happened. This little maid was truly hardworking and loyal!
Are you hurt anywhere?
Cheng Qiqi pulled Chun Tao into the house. When they bumped into Liu Suyi, before Chun Tao could speak, Liu Suyi said, "Quickly take Miss Chun Tao inside to wash up. There's hot water in the pot!"
When Liu Suyi saw Chuntao, she thought of the city gates of the capital, where Chuntao brought them clean clothes, shoes, and food, allowing them to safely get through a difficult period!
"Thank you, Madam."
Upon hearing Liu Suyi's words, Chun Tao was about to bow, but Liu Suyi refused, grabbing Chun Tao's hand and saying, "Miss Chun Tao, we should thank you."
"useless."
Upon hearing this, Chuntao waved her hands repeatedly.
"Mother, I'll take her to wash up first."
Cheng Qiqi felt a pang of heartache looking at Chun Tao's empty clothes. What kind of life had this girl been living since leaving the Marquis's mansion?
Marquis Zhongyong was overjoyed to see Jin Yanzhi and Chongshan. Before they even sat down, the village head and Granny Leng rushed over. When they saw Chongshan, everyone looked at him as if they wanted to devour him alive!
"All the sugar is sold out, but we've brought back all the money!"
Chongshan patted the bundle in his hand, making the sound of silver ingots clinking together!
"Oh my god, why are you carrying all your money on your back!"
As Zhuang Li listened to the sound of the silver ingots clinking together, he looked around quickly, as if he were a thief!
"Don't worry, village head, we've got all the money back. However, if everyone wants a share, they still need to exchange it for copper coins!"
Chongshan said, "We arrived in the county quite late this time, so we didn't exchange any money!"
"Don't worry, everyone cutting a little silver is enough to divide among us!"
Zhuang Lizheng's eyes narrowed with laughter. Seeing the silver in Chongshan's arms, the heavy weight on his heart finally lifted.
The old woman also breathed a sigh of relief.
Marquis Zhongyong said, "Lord Zhuang, Sister-in-law Leng, it's perfect timing! We're having a big meeting tonight to distribute the money. Everyone's worked so hard for so long, it's time to see some cash!"
These days, Chongshan caused some delays, and he returned a few days later. Everyone, from the village head to Zhao Hei and the Leng family, was worried!
"Alright, alright, let's split the money!"
Zhuang Lizheng's eyes narrowed with laughter, and he immediately went door to door to inform everyone. Anyone with a brain could tell that the Jin family would be very lively today!
Before dawn, the outside was already bustling with people, all thinking about how to divide the money.
"Uncle Beard!"
Jin Sui'an returned wearing a straw hat. When she saw Jin Mozhi, she immediately rushed over happily: "I really like the hat you gave me. Look, I picked a lot of loquats. Please have some!"
Jin Sui'an and Jin Yun went to Grandma Rong's house to pick loquats and brought back a whole basket full of them!
"An'an...Miss."
Jin Mozhi squatted down and took the initiative to lift a basket of loquats for Jin Suian: "Miss An'an is really amazing."
Seeing Jin Sui'an's smile filled him with an indescribable joy.
