Chapter 237
I won’t be absent this time
When Liniang finally came out, her expression was melancholy. When he saw her, Qin Zhiyi went to greet her.
"Is the matter resolved?"
Liniang nodded and dropped the firewood stick in her hand to the ground. She looked as if she had nothing to worry about.
"But after solving this matter, I don't know what I will do in the future. I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in this grocery store or in Yunyang County any longer."
Qin Zhiyi knows how important innocence is to women nowadays. She beat the man named Xu just now, and she also divorced her, but the man named Xu made such a fuss outside, and Mrs. Qin also made a fuss before.
, people who were already pointing fingers are now even more numerous.
If I stay here and open a grocery store, there will be no rumors, and I am afraid that some prodigal will come and cause trouble.
"Do you want to take out the grocery store?"
Liniang paused, then nodded.
When she was guarding the grocery store before, she actually still had the slightest hope that Qin Ping'an would come back one day, truly realize the truth, and live with her.
Now, she has jumped into the fire pit again. Regardless of whether Qin Ping'an has a thorough understanding or not, she has understood it clearly.
"Put out the shop and I'll go to other places to see what I can do."
Qin Zhiyi nodded: "It's better to change the environment and change the environment. By the way, didn't you say you wanted to open a tofu shop before?"
Liniang looked at her with a slightly embarrassed expression: "But I don't have the money to partner with you."
Qin Zhiyi smiled and said: "If you don't have money to start a partnership, then go to my brother's place and work as a helper. Tofu is not difficult to make, and other styles are not difficult either. You can learn it in ten days and a half, and you will naturally understand it."
At this point, she paused again: "But you have to pay the tuition fee. If you want to go out and make a living under the name of this tofu shop in Yunyang County, you will also have to pay 20% of the franchise fee."
She had to set the franchise fee rule.
Liniang thought for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
She was no longer as hesitant as the first time. Qin Zhiyi said that he would open a tofu shop, and the tofu shop was booming. Qin Zhiyi said that he would open a restaurant in Lincheng, and everyone in Lincheng's restaurants was also well-known.
She believed in her, even if she paid 20% of the franchise fee.
"Then I will tell my brother today that as for you to open a tofu shop, if you really have no place to go, you can go to Lincheng. I know Mr. He in the early morning. Maybe he can take care of you."
After hearing this, Liniang was even more grateful and immediately said to her, "Thank you very much."
She went to her eldest brother to talk about this matter after finishing her work at noon. When her eldest brother and sister-in-law heard that she wanted to help, they agreed on the spot to pay the apprenticeship fee.
After asking for two taels of silver, Liniang's matter was settled.
It is said that pregnancy will cause morning sickness, so Qin Zhiyi only felt uncomfortable for a few days. Since then, apart from eating some sour food, Qin Zhiyi has not felt anything else.
After a brief calculation of the money spent these days, I actually spent more than a thousand taels of silver.
There are hundreds of people and dozens of families. In addition to quilts, food and clothing, some also need medical treatment.
Qin Zhiyi wrote everything down, not because she felt bad, but because she had to remember every expense clearly.
A group of people went hunting in the mountains and forests for seven days before returning.
On the day he came back, Qin Zhiyi also went outside the city in a carriage.
I saw those carrying wild boars and those carrying roe deer. In addition to hares and pheasants, we also hunted several deer.
This scene was many times more spectacular than when the whole village went hunting.
When everyone saw her, they all called her madam, and Qin Zhiyi nodded in response. Sure enough, these people who had served as soldiers were different from ordinary people. As long as they took action, they would never come back empty-handed.
Sometimes there is a feast of their own at night, with a big and prosperous bonfire, various barbecue grills on the fire, and joy on everyone's face.
Fei Chengsheng sat cross-legged next to the bonfire, and the firelight reflected on his face flickeringly. He always had a tense face and said nothing.
She knew this man was worried, so she gently put her hand on the back of his hand.
"Are you too tired after being out for the past few days?"
"No."
Fei Chengsheng clasped her hand with his backhand, held it gently, and then gently held her shoulder with his other big hand.
"I found out that the emperor is sending people to monitor me."
Qin Zhiyi responded in a low voice. Fei Chengsheng had told her before and emphasized it again this time. Things must have changed.
"What happened?"
"It's nothing wrong. I just feel that the emperor has gone too far recently."
Having said this, he chuckled: "It's not a big problem. We live and work here peacefully, farming and weaving, and it won't hinder him."
Qin Zhiyi vaguely felt that something was not right, but she did not ask.
But in the next few days, Fei Chengsheng began to go out early and come back late.
Finally, He Changxuan also followed, leaving early and returning late.
She was vaguely uneasy, but when Fei Chengsheng came back, he seemed to be fine and fell asleep with his arms around her at night. His slight snoring told her that this man was very tired during the day.
Liniang's tofu shop in Lincheng opened successfully, and the tofu she made was specially supplied to Lincheng's Chengyi Restaurant.
That day, Fei Chengsheng returned to the room late at night, and when he lay quietly next to her, she had already woken up.
Realizing that she was awake, the man held her in his arms with his big hands, and then said softly: "The emperor came to me again some time ago and asked me to help him secretly train dead soldiers."
Qin Zhiyi raised his eyebrows. It turned out that this man had been busy with this matter since he left early and came back late recently.
"So you've been busy with this lately?"
Fei Chengsheng reached out and touched her face: "That's not entirely true. I have been training the people I brought back recently, training them based on their physical strengths. If anything happens during my absence, they can still protect them.
you."
It turned out that everything he did was for them. Although she guessed it, she was still a little moved.
"So you're going to the capital after finishing things here?"
"Um."
Fei Chengsheng cannot deny it.
Qin Zhiyi asked again: "How long will it take to go?"
"As soon as possible."
At this point, Fei Chengsheng's big hand covered her belly again: "I became a father for the first time, and I couldn't stay by your side. How can I be absent this time? I will definitely leave as soon as possible."
"good."
She thought there were still a few days left until the separation, but she never imagined that when she woke up the next day, the people around her were no longer there.
It was Aunt Guo who told her that Fei Chengsheng was afraid that she would be sad, so he set off secretly, leaving two children here to look after the home and nursery, while he took He Changxuan to the capital.
She felt as if a piece of her heart had been hollowed out. She put her big hands on her slightly swollen belly and said to herself: "He will come back when you come out."
On the third day after Fei Chengsheng left Yunyang County, Siniang told her that there was a beggar near the restaurant, and he had been sneaking around not far away recently to peek.
When she looked in the direction of Siniang's finger, she saw a man dressed as a beggar, hiding there furtively.
She just treated her as an ordinary beggar and asked Si Niang to bring the leftovers to him.
