His tea shed is directly consumed by young ladies and sons who are on the road. If there is such a place where they can drink a cup of hot tea, relieve their fatigue and at the same time calm down their impatience caused by the journey, there must be a business. .

Of course, because I want to drive on the side of the road, I have to prepare some emergency dry food in this tea shed.

However, all of this is just imagination, He Yuzhou has nothing now, and he can't do anything...

Rubbing his eyebrows, He Yuzhou took out the silk scarf to embroider, he urgently needs money now, Zhao Yi will go to the town again tomorrow afternoon, he hopes to be able to embroider the silk scarf tomorrow afternoon.

After a sleepless night, he casually ate something in the morning and embroidered the ten square scarves. In the afternoon, when he finally finished the embroidery, he immediately came to Uncle Zhao's house with a pale complexion and a newly bought men's clothing.

Seeing He Yuzhou's terrifying expression, Zhao Yi was suddenly startled, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Xiaozhou, what's wrong with you?"

He Yuzhou was taken aback, a little surprised how could Zhao Yi ask such a question?

Seeing her puzzled look, Zhao Yi added: "Your complexion is pale..."

He Yuzhou was taken aback, touched his face, and replied indifferently: "Probably because I stayed up late last night."

At the end of the sentence, he saw Zhao Yi's disapproving expression, and he hurriedly explained: "I don't feel any discomfort, don't worry, Uncle Zhao Yi, maybe my face is like this."

"If you make money, don't think about other things. Buy some delicious food to supplement yourself. You may have damaged your health by running around all the way." Zhao Yi urged

He Yuzhou nodded and replied, "I will."

He lost a lot of blood, except for the first few days when he was raised by the ninth son, he really didn't take good care of himself when he was alone.

The three meals a day are mostly multigrain porridge, and occasionally I will pick some wild vegetables to eat, but I rarely get any extra.

He should treat himself better, this living body is not easy to come by.

This time when I went to the town, there were several women on the bullock cart who I didn't know. Sometimes those women would look at He Yuzhou curiously, but maybe it was because of He Yuzhou's pale complexion, or maybe it was because of his With their expressionless faces, these women didn't talk much.

He Yuzhou didn't take the initiative to speak up, so naturally he didn't speak up.

As soon as he arrived in the town, He Yuzhou went to the cloth shop first. This time he spent a day and a night embroidering the ten-square silk scarf. The needle and thread were not as dense as last time, but the pattern technique was still there. Moreover, this time his silk scarf was bought. I bought expensive soft smoke, this kind of fabric is ten times more expensive than the previous one, the shopkeeper will not pay less for a square scarf like him...

Maybe it was because He Yuzhou came to this cloth shop more times, the shopkeeper greeted him with a smile as soon as he entered the door, and He Yuzhou didn't say much, just took out the square scarf to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper looked at it and said, "Your embroidery is not as dense as last time."

"But the tricks are all there." He Yuzhou replied.

"The embroidery last time was excellent but the fabric was too poor. For Zhao Yi's sake, I paid a price or two. This time I can only pay the actual price."

"How much?" He Yuzhou asked.

"Two or two."

"..." He Yuzhou said silently, "This fabric is ten times more expensive than last time."

"..." The shopkeeper was stunned, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll give you three taels at most."

Seeing that He Yuzhou was silent, the shopkeeper said again: "To be honest, even if there are people who use such silk scarves in this small place, there is not much demand. You probably heard Zhao Yi say that there are a few wealthy families here, but do you know? The Ding family only married a merchant woman, and the merchants who stayed in the local area were all incompetent distant relatives. Although life seemed rich, it didn't last long, and maybe they couldn't afford the money to use such silk scarves. The things in the county may be used by the Lu family, but do you know how many ladies and wives the Lu family has?"

"..." He Yuzhou was silent.

The shopkeeper continued with bright eyes: "The Lu family has not been prosperous in the previous generation. There are two brothers and three sisters in the previous generation. Now the two brothers have passed away, and there is only one person left. This person is still a male. And the three sisters have all recruited husbands and sons-in-law, and there are six sons under their knees, only two of them are daughters."

"If you count it like this, think about it yourself, how many people can use a square scarf?"

"..."

"Miss can't figure it out? Let me tell you the math. The merchant's daughter, the three sisters from the Lu family, and the second daughter are no more than six people. If you count each one, I will have to lose four."

"..."

"So I see this..."

"Come on, don't talk about it, two or three, it's a deal." He Yuzhou rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a little pain between his brows, he seemed to be dizzy...

Sure enough, without Uncle Zhao, he would be bullshit, but just three taels, three taels, sighed heavily, and He Yuzhou put the 30 taels in his arms, turned around and walked out.

Turning around and looking back, there was a person in his eyes.

The man was dressed in a light blue robe, with a crown and tied hair. His facial features were exquisite and he was very handsome, but there was a hint of melancholy between his brows and eyes, his complexion was also abnormally pale, and his lips were even more faintly pink.

"Ahem..." Clenched a fist to slightly cover the light-colored lips, a low cough escaped from the man's lips, the man's slight panting showed tiredness on his face, and he even leaned to the side Damn, looks very weak.

He Yuzhou was taken aback for a moment, only then did he realize that there was a guard in black next to the man. The guard had a hulking back and muscular body, and he looked like a powerful master.

At this time, most of the man's body was leaning on the strong bodyguard, and the bodyguard raised his hands to support the man.

The man was supported and slowly approached the cloth shop with a weak and tired face.

This is a sick man...

He Yuzhou thought, and suddenly felt that it was not good to always look at others like this. He quickly lowered his head, and when he saw that the man was about to enter the door of the cloth shop, he leaned back to let the man come in first.

"...Thank you..."

The unexpected man thanked him politely, and He Yuzhou responded politely by shaking his head unexpectedly.

Instinctively, he felt that this man was not simple. After He Yuzhou answered, he didn't want to cause trouble and hurriedly left with money...

The man stared at his back with some doubts.

"Such a handsome son, why have I never seen him before?"

"Ha! Master, that's a girl!" The shopkeeper of the cloth shop laughed out of the counter and put a chair behind the man.

The man raised his eyebrows unexpectedly when he heard it, and then came to understand, and chuckled lightly, but before the laugh was over, he coughed again.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly supported him to sit down, then frowned heavily and said, "Master, your illness...is getting worse..."

The man closed his eyes and covered his chest to breathe, and it took a long time before he opened his eyes and said, "...no problem."

"It's so serious, the young master should stay in bed." The shopkeeper worried.

The man shook his head, his lowered eyes were slightly sad: "It's just that I want to come out for a walk after lying down for a long time."

"...Master..." The shopkeeper opened his mouth and sighed, "I'm sorry for you."

"Uncle An, there is no need to worry, Zhuo Xi knows her own body." The man said flatly.

Uncle An was taken aback, then sighed: "Master, don't be brave."

The man didn't reply, but just asked, "How's the cloth shop?"

Hearing this, Uncle An said proudly, "I've made a lot of money recently, young master, let me show you something."

As he said that, Uncle An went inside and looked through it, and found out He Yuzhou's embroidery, and handed it to the man respectfully, "This is an embroidery that I bought recently. Although the purchase price is a little high, it is sold It's really good."

Hearing this, the man picked up one and looked at it, opened his eyes in astonishment, then put it down as if nothing had happened, and said, "The embroidery is not bad, but the fabric is too poor, I'm afraid it won't sell well."

"Yes, but look at this again, young master." As he spoke, Uncle An handed the square scarf he had just bought to the man.

The man looked at it quietly for a long time, then closed his eyes and said: "These fabrics are good, but the embroidery is a bit sloppy."

Uncle An heard the words and continued: "But...it's a little bit better than the ones in the county town. This one can sell at least 15 taels in the county town. Even here, there are people who want [-] taels."

"En." The man replied wearily, and leaned back on the chair with his eyes closed: "Who embroidered this?"

"It's the woman the young master just met."

"Surname Wen?"

"...En?" Uncle An was a little confused, so he immediately replied: "I heard that the surname is He."

Hearing this, the man opened his eyes leisurely: "Are you sure your surname is He?"

Uncle An nodded: "Zhao Yi told me that the woman fled here alone before, but now she and Zhao Yi are neighbors and people from the same village."

"..." The man was silent, staring at the silk scarves quietly. After a while, he pursed his lips and said, "Uncle An, if I read correctly, this is the Wen family's embroidery technique."
