Exiled to Lingnan, the Crown Prince's wife raises children, cultivates the land, and leads the

"Maybe, perhaps?"

Cheng Qiqi wasn't sure either, and asked, "If we buy a large quantity, perhaps we can get a few coins?"

"That's true."

Jin Yanzhi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "Perhaps, what Master saw... was an official, someone who came for free! Maybe we can just sell him for some money?"

Master used to be his brother's subordinate, and his brother... was the most powerful person he had ever met!

Although he is no longer here, his subordinates must have been very capable.

"Ask next time."

Cheng Qiqi said, "Jin Yanzhi, go and find out exactly what they're selling and at what prices, and remember everything."

"it is good."

Jin Yanzhi responded and turned to leave.

Cheng Qiqi reminded her, "Wait a minute, you also need to remember what they sell! Make sure you remember all the different kinds."

"it is good."

As Jin Yanzhi spoke, he immediately disappeared into the crowd.

"Mother, shall we rest at the teahouse next door?" Cheng Qiqi suggested. There were too many people here, and there was no point in them standing here.

"OK."

Liu Suyi walked to the teahouse and pulled Cheng Qiqi, who was going in to drink tea, and said, "Qiqi, let's just sit by the alley for a while."

"Second Aunt, Sister-in-law, please sit down."

Jin Lizhi used his clothes to wipe the steps under the eaves.

"Lizhi, why don't you go and see what's going on?" Liu Suyi said to the thoughtful Jin Lizhi.

"No."

Jin Lizhi shook his head and said, "Second Uncle said that one of us, Yanzhi or I, must stay by your side."

Jin Lizhi stood beside them like a guard, cautiously looking around.

Liu Suying watched this scene without saying a word, but instead asked Cheng Qiqi, "Qiqi, after he finishes his inquiries, shall we go home?"

"With so many people, it's definitely time to go home."

Cheng Qiqi spread her hands and said, "We definitely need a lot of glass bottles, but we need to contact foreign merchants. We need to find an opportunity."

Cheng Qiqi stared at the foreign businessmen who were surrounded by a dense crowd. She had the will, but not the power!

Unlike ordinary people who buy individual items, they want to place orders and exchange goods!

"Too."

Liu Suyi nodded in agreement, then suddenly covered her mouth and exclaimed in shock, "Oh dear, thank goodness we didn't squeeze in!"

Liu Suyi held Cheng Qiqi's hand and saw a thin man fall down and be stepped on several times.

"Mom, there are too many people, let's not push."

Cheng Qiqi looked at the person who had been stepped on several times and was finally pulled up by several strong men, and said, "This person is lucky."

"horrible."

Liu Suyi patted her chest. Just standing there, looking at it, felt a sense of dread. She said, "When we used to watch the lantern festival in Kyoto, there were always crowds, but..."

With guards present, and the Kyoto Imperial Guard also on duty, everyone was very orderly.

"If you really fall to the ground and can't get up, you must lie on your side, cover your head, and protect your chest."

As Cheng Qiqi spoke, Jin Lizhi, who was standing to the side, asked in confusion, "Sister-in-law, you have to get up even if you can't, otherwise you'll get trampled to death, won't you?"

"You can't get up, and you're not protecting your head and chest; you're doomed to die."

Cheng Qiqi looked at him intently. She had learned various first aid skills when she participated in charity events.

Jin Lizhi thought about it and realized that it was indeed true.

At this moment, Jin Lizhi had no idea that what he had overheard today would save his life in the future!

As time passed, Cheng Qiqi simply finished the candied hawthorn she hadn't finished eating. Although sitting here was a bit boring, watching so many people grabbing things was quite lively!

Back in the Marquis's mansion, Cheng Qiqi would sometimes sneak out, but she was always worried about An'an and never really had enough fun.

After being exiled...

This was the first time Cheng Qiqi had ever seen such a lively scene in Chaosheng County.

"Sandalwood shavings are great. I made some sandalwood last year, and when I put a little in the room, the fragrance was... wonderful."

"Rough cloth is good. My husband carries bags at the docks. He always has a few extra pieces of rough cloth on his shoulders, and he's never worried about them tearing."

"Rough sugar is fine too, it's cheap, and I can indulge in a sweet treat now and then."

"..."

Every now and then, someone would manage to snag a piece of the goods and leave happily, leaving Cheng Qiqi lost in thought.

"Seriously, that blond hair, pretty face, and blue eyes look really strange."

Liu Suyi and the others sat on the steps, watching the merchants from afar as they squeezed into the crowd. Occasionally, they would catch a glimpse of them, and at first glance, they would find them really strange-looking. After looking at them a few more times, they still couldn't get used to them.

"Who cares if it's strange or not? As long as it helps us make money, that's good."

Cheng Qiqi glanced at them and then looked away. She had no interest in foreigners. She said, "It would be great if they could sell us the glass bottles cheaply. We'll have to see what kind of things these people like."

Cheng Qiqi's words instantly opened up new avenues of thought for Jin Lizhi and Liu Suyi.

Bored out of her mind, Cheng Qiqi's eyes started to wander uncontrollably, looking here and there. Suddenly, she saw a girl with a headscarf standing next to the candied hawthorn vendor.

"Huh?"

Cheng Qiqi was puzzled for a moment, and the next moment she saw that the girl with the headscarf had eaten a candied hawthorn and was choking on it, feeling very uncomfortable all over.

not good.

Cheng Qiqi suddenly stood up and walked towards her.

"Oh, girl, I didn't do anything."

The old man selling candied hawthorns kept backing away as he watched this scene unfold.

"Puke, hurry up and throw up!"

People around noticed that the girl was clutching her chest and seemed to be in great pain, but no one dared to go forward.

"Um... help..."

The woman wanted to call for help, but the candied hawthorn was stuck in her throat; she couldn't spit it out or swallow it.

Her headscarf fell off as she struggled, revealing golden hair and a porcelain doll-like face with beautiful blue eyes, all of which were now wrinkled, her features squeezed together in pain.

"MaiMai, what's wrong?"

"Spit it out quickly."

Another woman next to her patted her back hard, trying to make her vomit, but the blonde woman named Mai Mai couldn't do anything about it.

"Oh, what a pity."

"If I can't vomit it up, I'm afraid..."

The onlookers shook their heads in regret as they watched this scene unfold. There were many children around them who had died because they choked on food and couldn't spit it out.

Please help us.

The woman next to her was so anxious that tears were almost in her eyes, but none of the onlookers knew how to help, and they were helpless.

"I'll do it."

Cheng Qiqi stepped forward and walked directly behind the woman. She made a fist with one hand and placed it two fingers above the woman's navel. With her other hand clasped, she forcefully thrust into the woman's upper abdomen.

One, two...

The posture was rather unseemly, and for a moment, everyone stared in disbelief at Cheng Qiqi's actions.
