"Hey, is that Chu Orion? I didn't expect to shave his beard, he is so handsome." The women on the bullock cart saw Chu Jieyi walking over, and whispered to the people around them.

"It seems to be." The people next to him also looked over and couldn't help blushing when they saw Chu Jieyi's handsome appearance.

Lin Ruyi sat next to her, pretending she didn't hear it.

Chu Jieyi walked past the bullock cart without stopping, and walked straight forward, as if he didn't see Lin Ruyi at all.

Lin Ruyi didn't bother to talk to him, anyway, sooner or later she would make up.

But if this scene falls in the eyes of others, then there is something to say.

"Hey, Lin Ruyi, why didn't your man say hello to you? You two met and didn't say a word?" Zhang, who liked to gossip next to him, immediately asked Lin Ruyi in a strange way.

Lin Ruyi glanced at her lightly, and asked slowly, "Is there a problem?"

"Of course there is. How can there be a couple who don't even say hello when they meet. Could it be that they have a bad relationship? Your man has shaved his beard and looks handsome, and he can hunt. You have to be careful." Zhang Shi covered his mouth and laughed badly.

The people next to him also laughed.

"What does our relationship have to do with you? Is it possible that you still want to marry him? If your man finds out about this, I'm afraid your front teeth will be knocked out by then." Although Lin Ruyi wanted to get along with Chu Jieyi and Li , but in front of outsiders, she still has to save face.

"You, you, nonsense, I just reminded you kindly. I'm afraid you will be divorced at that time, so I can only cry." Zhang's face instantly turned red to the ears, and he stuttered.

"Don't worry, if you are divorced by your man, I won't be divorced." Lin Ruyi said with a sneer.

Mrs. Zhang wanted to retaliate, but Chen Ping slapped the whip on the bull's back and shouted, "Drive, let's go."

Everyone in the car started shaking, and when everyone sat down, the matter was over.

Stumbling all the way to the town, everyone else got off the car one after another. Chen Ping drove the ox cart and sent Lin Ruyi to the entrance of Baiwei Restaurant before leaving.

Lin Ruyi sent in today's fifty catties of ice powder, and as soon as she entered, she saw Chen Wenqi sitting in the lobby on the first floor, drinking tea with a folding fan.

"Miss Lin, you're here." Seeing Lin Ruyi coming in, Su Lie immediately asked someone to pick up the things.

Lin Ruyi nodded, and waited for them to weigh in.

"Miss Lin, let's have a cup of tea." Chen Wenqi looked at Lin Ruyi, smiled warmly, and invited her to drink tea.

Lin Ruyi guessed that he was going to talk to him about the things he hadn't finished talking about last time, so he didn't hesitate, walked over quickly, and sat on the stool opposite him.

"Have you thought about it, Young Master Chen?" She had to go back to entertain guests today, so she didn't hesitate and asked straight to the point.

Chen Wenqi nodded, and then said: "Think about it, I really want the ice powder recipe, but the price is too expensive, I wonder if Mrs. Lin can give me a little more?"

"Young Master Chen, just tell me the number." Lin Ruyi said.

"How about 80 taels?" Chen Wenqi asked.

Lin Ruyi lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her head to look at Chen Wenqi, and said, "100 taels, I promise to only sell it to Young Master Chen, and I won't make it for sale again in the future. Only you in Daliang know how to make ice powder."

Chen Wenqi frowned slightly, as if considering her conditions.

After a while, he said in a deep voice, "Deal."

When Lin Ruyi heard that the other party agreed, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon Xiao Er brought over the pen and ink, and Chen Wenqi personally drew up the sales contract.

After writing it, I was afraid that Lin Ruyi would not be able to read, so I read it to her again.

Of course Lin Ruyi could read, but in order not to arouse suspicion, she could only pretend not to know. When Chen Wenqi finished reading, she glanced at it herself to make sure there was no problem, and then pressed her fingerprints.

In duplicate, one for each party.

Because this prescription is not cheap, Chen Wenqi was also afraid that other people would listen to it, so he asked Lin Ruyi to follow him to the box on the second floor, dictate it to him in person, and he would record it and hand it over to a trustworthy person to do it.

Lin Ruyi explained the process in great detail, fearing that they would not understand it and would not be able to say that she was lying.

It took about an hour to finish the whole thing.

After confirming that there was no problem, Chen Wenqi gave her the money.

She asked for a silver ticket of 50 taels, ten silver ingots, and ten taels of broken silver for her daily use.

Before leaving, she remembered one thing.

"Master Chen, shopkeeper Su said that your family will have a banquet for guests tomorrow, and you need two hundred catties of ice powder. Now that the prescription is given to you, do you still need me to make it?" Lin Ruyi asked.

Chen Wenqi nodded, "I still need to trouble Mrs. Lin. I still need to find the materials. I'm too rushed tomorrow, so I may not be able to make them. There are distinguished guests at home, so we can't delay them."

"Okay, then you can pick it up at my house early tomorrow." Lin Ruyi nodded.

"No, Mrs. Lin will go to my house to do it on the spot tomorrow, and I will send a master to learn from you, so that they can't learn it just by looking at the recipe." Chen Wenqi said.

Lin Ruyi thought for a while, and seeing that Chen Wenqi didn't look like a treacherous person, she nodded in agreement.

It was made an appointment early tomorrow morning, the Chen family will arrange a carriage to pick her up to the Chen family, and ask her to bring the materials she needs, and then she will be paid according to the price given to the restaurant.

After leaving Baiwei Restaurant, Lin Ruyi immediately went to the market to buy things.

I had to hurry back to cook and entertain the people who went to see them that night.

Because there were a dozen or so people who bought 350 catties of pork directly, as well as a set of pork ribs and four pig trotters. Seeing that she bought a lot, they gave her four pork kidneys and pig liver. It cost a total of [-] Wen .

Seeing the pigs thrown in the water, she asked the price again, and they said that they were all thrown away, and that they were not edible.

Lin Ruyi knew that they didn't know how to eat it, so she said that she had to spend money to buy it, and the boss gave it to her directly.

I bought these things already weighed tens of catties, and they were quite heavy in the back basket.

She was on her back, and the rope hurt her shoulders.

After a few steps, I was so tired that I was panting, and the sweat was dripping down.

I don't know if this body itself is too weak, or if she is sick and still not recovering, she really can't walk with these things on her back.

Seeing a rock not far away, she planned to put it down first, it was really too heavy.

But after only two steps, the weight on his back suddenly lightened a lot, and the rope around his shoulders also loosened.

She turned her head immediately, and saw Chu Jieyi behind her, dragging the bottom of the basket with one hand, as if not struggling at all.

Lin Ruyi looked at Chu Jieyi in surprise, and was stunned for three seconds before asking, "When did you come?"

In fact, Chu Jieyi had followed Lin Ruyi secretly since she came to the town, and he knew exactly what she did today.

Including that she made 100 taels in business with the young owner of Baiwei Restaurant, he knew all about it.

"Just here." He said coldly.
