On the second day, everyone in the Hou family got a bowl of very novel and delicious watermelon smoothie.
And after hearing that this method was invented by the eldest lady, everyone exaggerated that the eldest lady was smart and powerful.
Later, I heard that the method of eating smoothie has spread to the market. This smoothie is simple to make and the required ingredients are easy to obtain. Even ordinary people can buy it and eat a bowl.
Later, some smart businessmen made improvements to the original watermelon smoothie. In addition to watermelon, there were also peach, strawberry, mango and other flavors. When people came to wealthy families, chefs showed their talents and added many precious and rare ingredients to the smoothie.
The smoothie is both beautiful and delicious, attracting countless children from aristocratic families to try it.
Ji Moyan, who heard about this, expressed her praise for Gu Man without hesitation, but Cheng Mo curled his lips and said disdainfully: "What smoothie? It's such a harmful thing. How many people have eaten it?"
If you catch a cold, go outside and take a look, the hospital is almost full of people now!"
Ji Moyan lightly punched Cheng Mo and cried out for Gu Man: "Those people are greedy and eat too much, which is why they have diarrhea. What does it have to do with my sister! Zimo, you are purely prejudiced!"
Cheng Mo was noncommittal and did not argue with her. He immediately changed the subject, "Has she helped you manage the Hou Mansion these days?"
Ji Moyan nodded and said with admiration: "Thanks to my sister these days, there are many parts of accounting that I can't understand, but as soon as my sister explains it, I understand everything! My sister is really amazing!"
Cheng Mo said disdainfully: "She is more powerful than my Yan'er who is smart. You will understand after a brief explanation!"
Ji Moyan sighed helplessly. It seemed that there was a long way to go before Zimo would not be prejudiced against his sister!
…
Gu Man looked at the ledger in front of her that recorded the expenses of the Hou Mansion, and explained to Ji Moyan which amount was necessary and which amount was dispensable, how much to buy and how to use it? Ji Moyan nodded while
Side records.
Gu Man didn't know why he felt familiar with this account book when he saw it. He talked about it endlessly, obviously he was a person who couldn't save money. But the things about those account books just poured into his mind like a tide.
For example, when a person with amnesia sees something familiar, it immediately brings back the memory that has already been engraved in his mind.
Later, Gu Man thought: Maybe Gu Liao's thoughts were helping him! After all, he was using her body.
Seeing these piles of ledgers, Gu Liao was able to clear them out without any mistakes, which is enough to show how serious and responsible Gu Liao is.
After settling the last account, Gu Man stretched out, rubbed his sore shoulders and waist, turned to look at Ji Moyan, who was still taking notes carefully, and said, "The Queen's birthday will be in more than half a month.
Well, have you prepared any birthday gifts?"
Ji Moyan nodded a little shyly, "The Marquis said he would prepare it for me!" Then she said nervously: "This is the first time I have met the Queen, will she not like it?"
me?"
Gu Man thought: Of course I will!
Gu Man gave Ji Moyan a comforting smile and said, "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, the Queen will not embarrass you! But why don't you prepare a gift for the Queen yourself?"
Ji Moyan's pretty brows wrinkled slightly, and she said with some embarrassment: "The Queen has a noble status, and I'm afraid she doesn't need anything. I really don't know what to give. The Marquis should know better than me what kind of gifts to give."
It’s not rude!”
Gu Man shook her head and wrote in the book: The gift prepared by the Marquis for Ji Moyan is a luminous pearl found in the South China Sea. It is very rare and precious. There is only one of its kind in the world. It is not disrespectful to give it to the queen, and it is not a big mistake, but it is also
It’s not special. This kind of thing looks rare, and you can’t carry it with you all the time. After collecting it, you put it in the warehouse. If it were in an ordinary person’s home, this gift would be considered a good thing, but what kind of rare treasure does the Queen have?
Have you never seen it? Therefore, this treasure of Lord Marquis is of no great use at all!
Since it's useless, how can the Queen remember Ji Moyan and like her?
Gu Man thought: If Ji Moyan wants to gain a foothold in the aristocratic family, he must first win over the highest-ranking Queen. The Queen has already approved of Ji Moyan, are she still worried about what other people will say? Even if she does,
It cannot be discussed on the table.
Looking at Gu Man's expression, Ji Moyan asked: "Does sister have any ideas? By the way, the Queen is your aunt, and sister must be the person who knows the Queen best! Please give me some advice!"
Gu Man smiled. Since he took the initiative to bring up this matter, he naturally thought of a countermeasure.
It is written in the book that after Gu Li's death, the enemy suddenly attacked the country's border. The emperor sent troops and horses to reinforce, but the treasury was empty, the front line was tight, and there was no military pay, food and grass support, so the emperor asked the whole country to donate money to support it.
Border warrior.
However, how could the poor have the money to donate? They were so hungry that they finally managed to collect tens of thousands of taels of silver. However, the high-ranking officials in the capital were usually corrupt, but when they could really use them, they all cried poverty.
As the emperor's right-hand man, Cheng Mo had to worry about raising military pay every day, so our heroine thought that since those dignitaries were unwilling to take the initiative to donate money in vain, let them voluntarily pay for it.
So Ji Moyan thought of a way to make money.
Ji Moyan was good at medical skills and was very talented. He soon developed something called "Ningxiang Pills", which can beautify the skin and not easily harm the body.
After it was made, it was presented to the Queen. After using it, the Queen's skin was indeed smooth, delicate and smooth. Even the fine lines at the corners of her eyes were reduced a lot, and she looked more than five years younger.
The Queen Empress and Ji Moyan colluded and held a banquet as an excuse to invite all the female relatives of prominent officials and dignitaries. When everyone saw the changes in the Queen Empress, they were all surprised and asked for prescriptions from the Queen Empress.
Therefore, the Queen Empress followed the method previously discussed with Ji Moyan and revealed the address where the "Ningxiang Pills" were purchased.
The store selling "Ningxiang Pills" was controlled by Ji Moyan, and he found someone he trusted to be the shopkeeper. After the ladies of high-ranking officials used it, they spread the word.
Finally, I finally collected enough silver.
It was through this incident that Ji Moyan was admired by the high-ranking nobles and became a heroine who saved the country in the eyes of the common people!
Gu Man looked at Ji Moyan and said, "You have been studying medicine with your father since you were a child. Do you have any prescriptions that can be used to beautify and make people younger?"
Ji Moyan was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened and he said in surprise: "I have been researching such a recipe recently, how did my sister know about it?"
Gu Man smiled, and sure enough, Ji Moyan was already studying it at this time.
Gu Man said: "I just thought that what women fear most is aging. If there is a way to delay aging, that would be great! It seems that I have thought of going together with you!"
Ji Moyan smiled and nodded, "Yes, no wonder I always feel more and more close to my sister. It seems that I have a lot in common with my sister!"
Gu Man also responded with a smile, and then added: "If you really develop such a thing, then you can give it to the Queen as a birthday gift. When the time comes, the Queen will definitely like it!
And tell the Queen that only she has this gift!"
Ji Moyan looked at Gu Man, a little confused, and then suddenly figured it out.
Yes, who wouldn’t want such a good thing? What’s more, there are three thousand beauties in the harem. If everyone gets such a thing, wouldn’t everyone become young and beautiful? If everyone is like this, then what?
How can it highlight the uniqueness of the queen?
Gu Man nodded, Ji Moyan was really smart and could get things done with just a few clicks.
In fact, Gu Man has another thought, that is, this method itself has to deal with the crisis of foreign invasion in half a year. Now that Ji Moyan has made the Ningxiang Pills in advance, firstly, the Queen is not happy, and secondly, Ji Moyan has made the Ningxiang Pills in advance.
It is a national regulation that officials are not allowed to do business secretly. Although there are many officials who do business secretly, after all, their names are not justified. Besides, Cheng Mo will not do such a thing. It is better to wait half a year and get the permission of the emperor and empress.
Support can also help Ji Moyan gain recognition from the family, killing two birds with one stone. This chapter has been completed!
