At noon, Ren Zhichu and Ren Sangyu did not come back, but only sent a servant to come back and talk to Ren Fan.Ren Fan was also happy when he heard the words, it should be pretty good for Tian Xiang to stay for dinner.Ren Changyu and Ren Xingyu had an appointment with friends, but they didn't come back for lunch.It was just right, Ren Fan entertained Fan Bian and Fan Xiange, accompanied by three daughters-in-law.

Yu Qingxi was a little bit unwilling when she saw Fan Bian's eyes, but she didn't know if Ren Fan had told her in private, or what, but she never mentioned it again.Yu Qingxi ate his lunch in peace, and retired with Ren Fan.He didn't even go back to the house, and went out with Chun Yu.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the market, and Yu Qingxi didn't go to the shop immediately, but wandered past each house leisurely.It's only past noon now, except for the busy restaurant, everything else is quite free.When Yu Qingxi arrived at her bookstore, there were quite a few people inside.When he walked in, the shopkeeper Yuan Yi was accepting a book handed to him by a scholar, and he paid a handful of copper coins to go out.

Seeing Dong's coming, Yuan Yi immediately came forward to salute: "My Dong!"

"You're busy with your work, I'm just looking at it casually." Yu Qingxi randomly picked out a travel note and flipped through it.

"Hey!" Yuan Yi responded, "Everything here in the Dong family is bland, and those... the most interesting words are all in it."

"Huh?" Yu Qingxi slowly moved away from the book and looked at him, a little confused.

"It's the kind that Third Young Master Ren bought last time..." Yuan Yi reminded.

Yu Qingxi immediately turned dark: "The third young master took the wrong one last time!" He looked at his books and felt that it was necessary to talk about this shopkeeper.Yu Qingxi looked around, and in order not to affect the surroundings, she said to him: "Follow me in!"

"Hey!" Yuan Yi bowed his head, almost slapping himself.However, it is normal for a man to read this kind of book for entertainment, and the owner's face is too thin!

Yu Qingxi sat down, Chunyu immediately checked the tea brought over, and then poured him a cup.Yu Qingxi squeezed her teacup, looked at Yuan Yi and said, "What a good bookstore, why are you selling those filthy things!"

"Boss, even the small ones can't help it!" Yuan Yi frowned and said, "Our bookstore is the most unprofitable, and most of the poor scholars outside only read books and rarely buy books. These bookstores are more expensive than regular bookstores. The scriptures sell better, and the small ones are also for the sake of our bookstore's business!"

"Just now I saw that you paid the scholar..." Yu Qingxi asked after thinking about it.

"Oh, they copied books for the bookstore. We provided the paper and paid them some copper coins for each book copied." Yuan Yi explained.

Yu Qingxi understood.Bookstores do not make much money because paper is too expensive in this era, and books are also more expensive.The collections of books of aristocratic families are accumulated from generation to generation, and pens, inks, paper and inkstones can be used for a long time once purchased.And poor scholars buy fewer books. The price of a book can buy a stone of grain. It is very difficult for ordinary farmers to provide a scholar.Of course, if the connections behind it are wide enough, then the bookstore is another matter.The dowry shop given to him by the Yu family is naturally a tasteless piece of cake in his hands, not a golden pastry.

With snot and tears, Yuan Yi cried to Yu Qingxi how much he owed to the bookstore, and then hinted that the previous owner was digging money regardless, and took the opportunity to pick himself out.

Yu Qingxi glanced at him: "Speak well when you speak, why do you have to learn the habits of those ladies, crying and howling."

Yuan Yi choked for a moment and wiped away tears desperately.It's not easy to act!

"I have my own eyes to see what's going on here," Yu Qingxi said, "Bring me the account book, and I'll talk about it after reading it."

Yuan Yi was not worried at all, and quickly took out the ledger.The new boss looked at Wen Wen Dan Dan's good temper, but he was not easy to be fooled at all. Fortunately, he did a good job, so he was not afraid.Even if the problem is found in the future, he has mentioned it today, and the deficit is poached by the former boss and has nothing to do with him.What is he worth with some mosquito meat?It's not as good as a steward of Zhuangzi!

Yu Qingxi asked Chunyu to take over the ledger, and stayed at the front for a while before leaving.The other dowry shop was more remote, so they walked slowly.As he walked, Yu Qingxi stopped in his tracks. What else could it be if it wasn't Luo Li who was coming a few feet away!

Luo Li immediately felt the gaze, and turned his head to look, it was his "employee"!He regretted in his heart that he didn't change his head before coming out. He thought only for a moment, but he walked over with a smile on his face: "Boss?"

"I thought I was mistaken." Yu Qingxi smiled lightly.

"Ah?" Luo Li pretended to be stupid, "Oh, that's how it is. Now that the autumn harvest is just over, the little ones came out to look for suitable seeds."

"Oh." Yu Qingxi asked as he walked, "How about Zhuangzi?"

"When the rent comes down, the tenant farmers are naturally more willing to grow nearby." Luo Li paused and said, "It's just that the tenant farmers who are willing to grow rice are much less, and they think it's more cost-effective to grow sweet potato and sorghum. But those grains I can’t sell it for any price, so my little heart wants to come out and see if there is any one that is easy to grow and can be sold at a good price!”

Yu Qingxi asked: "Then you found it?"

"Not yet." Luo Li shook his head.

Yu Qingxi suddenly remembered the news that Gongzhong was eager to raise sweet potatoes, and he lowered his eyebrows and said, "Then let them plant it."

Luo Li looked at Yu Qingxi, nodded in response: "Yes!"

"Let's talk about finding a teahouse." Yu Qingxi looked around, pointed at Fang Manxuan in front of him, "That's it!"

The corners of Luo Li's eyes moved invisibly, and then looked suspiciously at Yu Qingxi.Anyway, he happened to be going there anyway!

Yu Qingxi asked for a private room, ordered a pot of tea and scattered snacks to eat, looked up at Luo Li: "Sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Master." Luo Li still couldn't figure out what Yu Qingxi was thinking, so he sat on half of his buttocks according to the rules of a servant.

Just as Yu Qingxi was about to speak, the door outside opened, but the person who came in was not a waiter from the teahouse, nor Chun Yu who followed him to see tea and snacks.

"Oh, it's a coincidence to come early!" The beautiful lady came in coquettishly, and patted Luo Li on the shoulder, who hadn't had time to wink, "Ah Chou is really diligent in changing his line!"

"Ah smelly?" Yu Qingxi raised her eyebrows and looked at Luo Li carefully.

"Ahem..." Luo Li patted Hua Shang's hand and gave him a hard look.

How can Yu Qingxi not know now, this Luo Li is clearly Luo Ahchou who has changed his face!Sending eight liang of silver over that day, so is Ah Chou also him?

"What?" Hua Shang finally realized something was wrong.

"Auntie recognized it immediately." Yu Qingxi smiled lightly, as if it wasn't him who changed his face just now.

"Why don't you just put on a new face, it won't change in your bones, how can you not recognize it!" Hua Shang waved his hand, pulled aside the stool next to him and sat down.

Yu Qingxi frowned, glanced at Luo Li, who was silent with downcast eyes, and turned to Huashang, "Auntie, I have something to talk to...uncle."

"Hmm..." Hua Shang finally saw Luo Li, and was about to join in to continue, but unexpectedly, his "son" disliked him, "Auntie can't listen to anything? You little heartless!" The boss said so, but he had already stood up, glanced at a few ledgers on the stage, and walked towards the door calmly.

The door was knocked three times, and Chun Yu came in with tea and snacks. Seeing the seventh aunt of the Yu family coming out, she was also taken aback: "Auntie going out today?"

"Ah!" Huashang raised his head, and rested his fair and slender fingers on the golden hairpin, "Master's permission!" Then he twisted and shook and went out, and he could hear it from afar, "It's just right Go and buy the newly released Sapphire Dian Cuizhu hairpin..."

Chun Yu turned around, offered tea and snacks one by one, and stood aside.

"Chun Yu, you go outside and watch, don't let anyone get close." Yu Qingxi said.

"Yes." Spring Rain responded and went out to guard the gate.

Yu Qingxi watched the door close, and looked at Luo Li: "Master, drink tea."

Luo Li felt that his face had been exposed, but he let it go. He squeezed the teacup and sat down on the chair: "Hey, this tea is not as good as wine at all!"

Seeing his calm look, Yu Qingxi stared straight at him.

Luo Li's relaxed body was stared at so tightly: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Shouldn't Uncle Master explain it?" Yu Qingxi said.Obviously you can say it straight, but you have to make up a life experience that has changed hands again and again.

"Is there anything to explain?" Luo Li put the teacup away, leaned on the back of the chair with his arms folded and looked at Yu Qingxi, "Aren't you just looking for this face?"

Yu Qingxi pondered for a while with downcast eyes, and then asked him: "Is this... is it a person, or just a face?"

Luo Li understood what he said, and said straightly: "It's just a face, and it's a new one I made. I'm curious, how do you know this face?"

Yu Qingxi's pupils dilated slightly, and then quickly lowered them again.It turned out that he had exposed such a big flaw without knowing it.However, he just smiled: "How could I know. I can't be sure that you are that person just by looking for a portrait."

"Oh, that's why I'm on guard against me." Luo Li remembered all the things before, and then he understood.

Yu Qingxi didn't comment on this, but said, "I don't know why my uncle is interested in... being my slave?"

"You'll get tired of Yexiang after a long time!" Luo Li smiled like a fox.

Yu Qingxi didn't believe a word.

Seeing his expression, Luo Li weighed between kicking him away and confessing, before asking him: "Do you know who your father is?"

Yu Qingxi's eyes flickered, and his biological father in the modern age and the master of the Yu family flashed through his mind, and finally put a cross on the head of the master of the Yu family.He said, "My aunt never said that."

Luo Li looked at his face carefully as if he had met him for the first time in the yard on West [-]th Street: "You look a lot like your father."

Yu Qingxi watched his eyes let go of all their guards, and they became so soft, but they were mixed with a bit of gray from time to time.He took a sip of tea and said, "I... Daddy is also a dark man?"

"Naturally!" Luo Li glanced at him like an idiot, "Your father... is my senior brother. I recognized you the first time I saw you. You are [-]% to [-]% like your father, with the same temperament. Same look!"

"You can recognize it, why doesn't my aunt know?" Yu Qingxi asked.

"Hua Shang met later. She knows me, but she doesn't know your father." Luo Li said.

"What grievances do you have with my father?" Yu Qingxi asked directly, thinking about the flash of darkness in his eyes before.

"Where..." Luo Li laughed cleanly, "It's just that I haven't contacted your father for many years. If I were by your side, I might have a chance to see him."

Yu Qingxi looked at his free and easy posture, but there was a bit of forbearance and tolerance in his eyes.Could it be that his father did something to offend this man?However, he doesn't care, anyway, he doesn't recognize this cheap daddy.

"However, it's not certain." Luo Li closed his smiling mouth and said, "In the eyes of dark people, blood relationship is not worth mentioning."

"Oh." After hearing these words, Yu Qingxi relaxed his guard against Luo Li, "Then let's get down to business. You worked as an accountant before?" He didn't wait for Luo Li to answer, and directly Pushing the ledger at hand over, "Take a look at these."

"What?" Luo Li pulled it over and flipped through it, and closed the books in just one cup of tea time, "There are two brushes in the hidden place, the price of buying and selling is the same, and the warehouse is in disrepair all the year round. Will it leak? A part will be lost every month.”

When Luo Li said this, Yu Qingxi understood.He sized Luo Li up and said, "Don't say I'm wary of you, uncle, here, let you take care of this shop!"

"You're unfilial..." Luo Li glared at him, suddenly felt that it was not suitable for anything, so he shut up reluctantly.

"Oh, I got it, I got it," Yu Qingxi waved his hand, "Amber light!"

"Hey!" Luo Li finally got some balance in his heart, but soon squinted his eyes and looked at him again, "I said, why did you mention Amber Light?"

Yu Qingxi looked up slowly: "Isn't the amber light delicious? Then change to another one next time?"

Seeing that his face was calm, Luo Li said, "Oh, forget it, just amber light." That's right, Hua Shang didn't even know that he liked amber light, so how could he know.

Yu Qingxi naturally knew, because she had met Luo Libu's amber light several times in her previous life.He put down the teacup and said, "Let's go."

"Where?" Luo Li looked at the ledger and had no choice but to hug it.Really disrespectful!However, he is acting as the man's steward now, and he should do so.

"There is also a small grocery store, let's go and have a look together." Yu Qingxi said, "It happens that you are free too!"

Luo Li nodded: "Then wait for me for a while." After speaking, he opened the door and ran to the shopkeeper with the account book in his arms.

Chun Yu was startled when she saw people rushing out of it, looked at Yu Qingxi again and said, "Miss San, this is..."

"About going to pay the bill?" Yu Qingxi said.

"Oh." Not long after, Chun Yu saw Luo Li approaching, and took out his purse, "Steward Luo, how much money is it?" How could this master drink tea and let a steward who just came up pay the bill?

"What money?" Luo Li was a little confused.

"Didn't you go to pay the bill?" Chun Yu paused.

"Ah...look at my memory!" Luo Li was about to go back to be his loyal servant, but Yu Qingxi stopped him.

"Chun Yu, you go." Yu Qingxi said.

"Yes." Chun Yu walked over.

Luo Li looked honest and honest, lowered his head and approached Yu Qingxi, and said softly: "I'm afraid the master doesn't know this teahouse yet?"

Yu Qingxi looked at Luo Li, who was full of complicated eyes, and then looked around.

"Well," Luo Li's voice was still very low, affirming Yu Qingxi's thoughts, "This is the teahouse opened by our master."

"Oh." Yu Qingxi followed silently.No wonder Seventh Aunt appeared here!
