Mrs. Xu said, her eyes rested on the basket brought by Mrs. Yuan, and asked: "A-Shu, is this basket of yours filled with the Zhao fans you showed me yesterday?"

She smiled and joked: "You are really precious, you have to take it with you when you go out!"

After being reminded like this, Mrs. Yuan suddenly thought of the bean greens she had brought over.

She immediately opened the lid, took out the bean green plant, and showed off: "Look, what is this?"

Mrs. Xu was already stunned. She pointed at the pea-green flowers in front of her and said in surprise: "This, this seems to be a peony too, right?"

"If I remember correctly, this is also the best among peonies, bean green?"

Mrs. Yuan nodded, her eyes couldn't stop being proud, and she raised her brows slightly: "Yes! This is Doulu, Yaqin. My luck is so good. Tell me, I went out to buy Zhao powder for you this morning. Who would have thought that this would just be an extra pot of pea greens!”

"My master loves flowers, so I didn't care whether the flowers were expensive or not, so I moved back here first."

Mrs. Xu was so envious that she couldn't move her eyes away from Douluo. She said sourly: "Ah Shu, I also think of Douluo."

"Your luck is not only good, it's simply too good! Wow, you are already the best among peonies!"

"No one in the entire capital has so many top-quality peonies. You are the first!"

When Mrs. Yuan heard this, she even smiled from ear to ear: "Oh, Yaqin, don't worry, if it were anyone else, I wouldn't let them see my Zhao Fen Doulu, but you are different. If you want to see it in the future, you can come anytime." Find me at home."

Mrs. Xu couldn't laugh or cry. She was a good friend who had good luck since she was a child, but she was not bad either, so she was just envious.

Mrs. Yuan talked to Mrs. Xu for a while, then came out of the Xu Mansion and walked towards her natal home.

When they arrived at Liu's house, Mrs. Liu and Mr. Liu had already received the news and were waiting for her at home.

"Little sister, come on, where is the Zhao Fan you bought for me?"

When Mr. Liu learned that his younger sister really bought Zhao Fan for him, he was so excited that he stopped doing the work at hand and hurried back.

This time, when he saw Mrs. Yuan and the maid behind her carrying a basket each, he thought that what Mrs. Yuan was carrying was her own Zhao Fen plant, and the one the maid was carrying was the one she bought for him. of.

"Quickly, open it and take a look at my Zhao fans!" Mr. Liu looked forward to it.

The maid placed the basket on the table, opened it carefully, and took out the Zhao Fen plant.

"Oh, it's so beautiful. The slight blush among the elegant petals is like rouge or sunset!" Mr. Liu couldn't help but praise it.

Although Mrs. Liu didn’t understand flowers, she smiled and leaned over to take a look.

The couple were immersed in the joy of admiring flowers when they heard Mrs. Yuan say: "Brother, I am the one who is beautiful!"

She took out the bean greens and placed them completely in front of Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu.

When Mr. Liu saw this, his eyes almost popped out, and he was extremely excited: "This, this is bean green! It's right bean green! I've seen it in a painting book before!"

Mr. Liu is a person who loves flowers very much. He can recognize it at a glance. He can tell clearly what kind of flower this is, what kind of flower it is, and even what kind it is.

Mrs. Yuan looked proud, and she knew that her eldest brother would be very excited to see Doulu.

Even, against the background of the bean green, Zhao Fan seems to be a little less stunning!

Mr. Liu swallowed his saliva and looked envious: "Sister, did you buy these flowers from an expert?"

Mrs. Yuan: "Ah, of course!"

"Sister, look, can you ask the master again..." Mr. Liu and Mrs. Yuan are indeed brothers and sisters. When they want something, their tone of voice is almost the same.

"No! Brother, there is only one bean green plant left over there!" Mrs. Yuan understood instantly and refused directly.

"Brother, I begged for this Zhao Fen plant for a long time. For my sake, they just sold it to me. You can't be content, brother!"

Mrs. Yuan kept talking about her brother, making Mr. Liu embarrassed to mention it again.

Mrs. Liu looked at this sister-in-law who was just like her own daughter, and then at the master who had been 'educated' by her sister-in-law, her face was full of helplessness.

Finally, Mr. Liu heard that Mrs. Xu had given fifteen thousand taels, so he also asked Mrs. Liu to take out a silver note of fifteen thousand taels and handed it to Mrs. Yuan.

Mr. Liu warned seriously: "Sister, help me bring a message to the master. If there are top-quality flowers in her place in the future, no matter what, as long as she is willing to sell them, I will take them!"

Mrs. Yuan: "Okay, okay, brother, I understand."

In fact, she was murmuring in her heart that if Lu Jianchuan goes well in the examination next year and there are no surprises, he should be able to stay in the capital as an official. Then maybe her eldest brother will know Lu Jianchuan.

By that time, I won't be needed anymore, and my sister-in-law can go deal with Yunxi and buy flowers.

"Hey, forget it, why are you thinking about such long-term things?" Mrs. Yuan shook her head violently, stood up and put the pea greens back into the basket.

Under Mr. Liu's reluctant eyes, Mrs. Yuan left with the basket.

She first returned to the house and asked the maid to take out 20,000 taels of silver notes, put them together with the other 30,000 taels of silver notes she had received, and asked the maid to collect them personally and send them to the Lu family.

After a while, the maid came back with a few banknotes in her hand.

"Madam, according to your instructions, I gave the banknote to the young lady of the Lu family. However, young lady Lu said that you gave me too much banknote and insisted that the slave bring some back."

The maid said as she handed over the remaining banknotes.

Mrs. Yuan counted them and found five silver notes worth one thousand taels. Her face was full of surprise and appreciation.

She didn't expect that Gu Yunxi was so understanding of the world, knowing that others gave fifteen thousand taels, and she gave him twenty thousand taels, and returned five thousand taels to herself.

This is equivalent to the fact that the price of buying the only bean green is the same as that of several Zhaofen plants.

Speaking of which, I still took advantage of the Lu family! Mrs. Yuan sighed for a while and asked the maid to put away the banknotes.

However, she secretly remembered this favor in her heart.

When Gu Yunxi's grain shop opened, Mrs. Yuan was the first to support it. Not only that, Mrs. Yuan also asked Mr. Yuan to write a plaque for the shop in his own hand. After finishing it, he carried it over.

The Lu family didn't know many people in the capital, and the only guests who came were Shilang Yuan and Mrs. Yuan, as well as the housekeeper sent by Yongchang Houfu to congratulate them.

Shilang Yuan and Mrs. Yuan walked in with a smile and said congratulations: "Yunxi, Jianchuan, congratulations so much. I wish your business will get better and better, and your wealth will be rolling in!"

With smiles on their faces, Gu Yunxi and Lu Jianchuan welcomed them into the shop and thanked them repeatedly: "Thank you, my mentor, and thank you, my wife, for coming to support us!"

"Butler, come, please come in..."

When everyone arrived, Lu Jianchuan lit the firecrackers that had been prepared.

With the sound of firecrackers and a lot of excitement, the Lujia Grain Store was officially opened.
