Farmhouse is so old

"What are you doing out there? There are too many people outside, so just sit in the yard." Tang Qing ran into the house, saw Zhou Qing approaching the gate, his eyelids twitched, and helped him walk to the inner yard .

Zhou Qing had no choice but to follow Tang Qing back, explaining cautiously: "I didn't want to go outside, I just wanted to stand at the door and listen to what happened." The whole family looked at his stomach very carefully, Zhou Qing also Doubly pay attention to not not listening to everyone.

"I know, I don't think you intend to go out, but there are too many people outside, what if one or two rush in and bump into you, I will tell you about the situation in the inner courtyard." Tang Qing helped Zhou Qing Go to the gazebo in the inner courtyard and let him sit down.

"The neighbors in the town came to thank us and gave us a lot of gifts, blocking the threshold of our house. Do you think I will accept this gift or not?" Tang Qing shrugged helplessly and sat down, facing Zhou Qing. Complain quietly.

Zhou Qing picked up the needlework on the table and was thinking about how to help Tang Qing return the gift. He was usually busy, so he would have to relax all of a sudden. It was really uncomfortable. He had to do something. Only then is my heart at ease.

Tang Qing didn't have to ask Zhou Qing to pay attention. Watching him do the needlework, his mind kept turning, to see if there was any way to return these gifts. Accepting the gifts meant that there would be a relationship in the future. There are so many families in the town, if anyone has something to do, I am afraid that there will not be a few days of leisure all year round, so it is better to settle it once and for all.

Of course, Tang Qing didn't have to accept it, or he didn't need to return the gift, but he just didn't accept it and let these things be placed at the door, and everyone didn't take them back. It stinks after a long time and doesn't look good.It's okay not to return the gift, but Tang Qingke will be confessed in Wenshui Town in the future. He is not down-to-earth, and everyone has to be polite to him wherever he goes.

Zhou Qing was thinking while threading needles.Now he wants to make all the children's clothes, all of which are made of fine cotton, and they are warm to wear.Do more now, so that you don't have to look for clothes in a hurry when it's time for production.

I remember that when the two younger brothers were born, the family was too poor to make clothes, so my mother prepared an old dress he wore, thinking that she could wear it again when she grew up, and she was reluctant to cut it.

It was only after giving birth that he found out that they were twins, but there was only one piece of clothing, so he ran to each house to borrow clothes in a panic. Everyone was poor with a piece of clothing that could be mended and worn. Who would be willing to borrow it? In the end, the family One person cut half a piece of cloth from his body and sewed it together, so that Zhou Shan and Zhou He had clothes to wear.

Zhou Qing thought of his mother's childbirth, and was afraid that his child would not have clothes to wear, so he was particularly keen on making clothes for the child.Anyway, the family is not short of money now, so why deduct it like this.

As a father, I really want to leave all the good things in the world to my children. Now that Zhou Qing sees a piece of better material, he wants to make clothes for his children, imagining how beautiful and cute he looks in this clothes.

Tang Qing saw that Zhou Qing was having fun doing it, and then looked at Zhou Shan who was still standing aside, refusing to move, and felt that he was a bit of an eyesore.

"Go out and help, don't stick around here and make wood." Tang Qing waved his hand, trying to send Zhou Shan away.

Zhou Shan curled his lips and left unwillingly. Didn't you say you wanted to watch my brother all the time?

"I thought of it." After Zhou Shan was sent away by Tang Qing, Zhou Qing thought of an excellent idea in a flash.

Tang Qing looked at Zhou Qing's bright eyes, sat down obediently with interest, and listened to what Zhou Qing had to say next.

"Husband, why should you worry about returning gifts? Before the plague, our pharmaceutical factory was short of manpower. Ziyu has sent many replies, requesting to increase production, and also said that he would discuss the processing of this medicinal material with other merchants. I guess this is the case. A letter will arrive in two days."

Zhou Qing put down the needle and thread and kneaded his sore wrist. Because his palm was a bit big, it took a little more effort than others to hold the needle, and his wrist was slightly sore after a while.

Before Tang Qing came back, Cheng Ziyu had been talking to him about increasing the processing of medicinal materials. He was too busy, but he kept holding back and refused to agree. He wanted to wait for Tang Qing to come back to discuss it. However, when he encountered the plague again, the letter was written After breaking off the relationship, when Tang Qing came back, he was pregnant again, so he completely put this matter aside.

Just now when he sat down to think about something, it suddenly occurred to him that it could just solve the troubles of her husband.

"You mean to open a pharmaceutical factory in the town?" Tang Qing immediately understood what Zhou Qing meant, and tapped his fingers on the stone table to think about the feasibility.

There is nothing wrong with moving to the town, but what I am most worried about is can Cheng Ziyu eat so many herbs?With Tang Qing's joining, his pharmacy's income has recovered a lot, but it is still far from the output of a large pharmaceutical factory.

We can only wait and see how he negotiates with various merchants. If he can win the medicinal material processing rights of the eight major merchants, then no matter how big the factory is, there is no need to worry about not being able to supply medicinal materials.

While Tang Qing was thinking, Zhou He sent him a large stack of envelopes.

"Brother, the people at the inn delivered it just now. There were so many people outside that they managed to squeeze in, and the envelope was a little wrinkled." Zhou He also squeezed out from the crowd, covered in sweat, and the uncles and aunts kept pulling them. It's okay, and I have to introduce them to granddaughters and grandchildren.

It was so hot, they were too enthusiastic, and my brother-in-law let his hands go, so they had no choice but to touch their scalps, feeling as if they had been touched all over their bodies.

Tang Qing looked at the letter. There was a shadow on the dark yellow envelope, which was wet from Zhou He's sweat, and it was still crumpled.

After opening a few letters, they were all letters of greetings from Cheng Ziyu and Cheng Minghai. They also received news of the plague in Wenshui County. They were very worried about Zhou Qing's situation. They kept writing letters to greet him. Still uninterrupted.

"It's all about you, take a look." After reading it once, Tang Qing handed the letter to Zhou Qing with a sour tone. Why didn't anyone write to care about me?

Zhou Qing didn't notice Tang Qing's tone, so he happily accepted the letter, asked Zhou He to get some pens, ink, paper and inkstone, and prepared to reply to them.

Seeing that he was happy, Tang Qing stopped being jealous, then looked at the remaining few letters, and sure enough, several of them mentioned the matter of the pharmaceutical factory.

Cheng Ziyu's pharmacy is very hot now, not to mention the supply of medicinal materials, and Tang Qing often makes some medicinal materials and pills, so the business of the pharmacy has increased many times.

The main reason is that the reputation has increased. Everyone knows that Huichuntang's medicines are good, and the medicines prescribed are cured quickly. People are willing to come to Huichuntang for medical treatment. Now Huichuntang is famous.

Other pharmacies were also jealous, so it was natural to inquire about how Cheng Ziyu managed to bring a pharmacy back to life. If there is a way, it is natural to discuss cooperation.

According to the letter, Cheng Ziyu had already negotiated a cooperation agreement with the Eight Great Merchants, and now it was up to Tang Qing and Zhou Qing to nod and sign the contract, and the matter would be settled, and Cheng Ziyu would often come and raise the processing fees of the Eight Great Merchants. Double, and Tang Qing will be divided fifty-fifty.

Tang Qing laughed and scolded in his heart, this businessman, he talked about it like this, the price of medicinal materials processed by his pharmacy is always lower than that of other merchants, and he earns more than them. Pen, earn money at both ends.

But Tang Qing wasn't jealous either. He was capable and capable, so it was his job to make money.

With this letter, Tang Qing can make preparations in the town first, and it is not a big problem to open a pharmaceutical factory with 3000 people.With this large pharmaceutical factory, it is not a problem to drive the surrounding economy, and the good days of Wenshui Town will come in the future.

Tang Qing gave such a big gift to the people of Wenshui Town, so naturally there was no need to return the gift.The best of both worlds, can make money, but also let everyone get benefits.

"Uncle, grandpa and the others are here." Tang Qingzheng said happily when he saw Zhang Dong rushing in.

Tang Qing and Zhou Qing got up immediately, going to greet them, but saw Zhou Dafu and the others had strode in.

Seeing Zhou Qing, Wang Xi'er hurried over, looked him up and down, held his hand, tears streaming down his face: "My son, are you all right? I heard that there was a plague in the town, but it made me anxious." Yes, I have come to the town several times and are not allowed to enter."

Wang Xi'er was really scared. At home, half of her hair turned gray from worry, and she looked haggard. She always regretted why Zhou Qing didn't keep him when he came home.

When she heard about the plague, Wang Xi'er fainted several times and ran to the town every day, but the officers and soldiers refused to let her go, so she could only go home and wait. This time, as soon as the town gate opened, she rushed here without stopping after getting the news, and Zhou Dafu was also beside her. Then sigh.

Seeing that Zhou Qing and the others were fine, he felt at ease. What he was most afraid of was white hair, and he desperately wanted to take a look.Just crying and begging to take money, the officers and soldiers would not let him go, and the waiting people were haggard.

"Mother, I'm fine." Zhang Lan pulled Zhou Dahua, shook her head and said softly.

But the scratches on her wrists hadn't disappeared yet, and Zhou Dahua saw it, and rolled up her sleeves distressedly, and when she saw the scars, she hugged Zhang Lan and cried bitterly: "Mum, it's useless to make you suffer so much. "

"Mom, it's my fault that I didn't take good care of my sister." Zhang Dong saw Zhou Dahua crying, his nose was sore, and he started to cry too, blaming him for being useless for making his sister contract the plague and leaving such ugly scars on his body. scar.

"No, my brother is very powerful. He can take care of me when I'm sick." Zhang Lan wiped away Zhou Dahua's tears, and wiped Zhang Dong's little face, and said softly.

"Sister said it was all my fault for not taking them well." Tang Qing looked at them like this and blamed himself in his heart. If he hadn't left, Zhang Lan and the others wouldn't have suffered such a serious crime. The injuries on their bodies looked shocking. I gave them an ointment for removing scars, but I don't know if it can be completely removed.

"Third Uncle, I don't blame you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid Su'er would be gone by now."

Zhou Su pulled Tang Qing and said gratefully, she was really scared when she was sick, she was afraid that she would never see her parents again, every day she heard that people died outside, and the coffins in the coffin shop were all sold out, and finally fell ill Everyone in the house was completely burned, and she was terrified at that time.

Fortunately, the third uncle did not give up on them, and has been looking for ways to treat them. He came to talk to them and take care of them every day. Sometimes it was so itchy that the third uncle tied their hands and told them stories to distract them. Otherwise, I don't know if I can survive it.

Zhou Su was grateful to Zhou Qing from the bottom of her heart. Apart from her parents and grandparents, he was the one who treated her best. It was nothing to have scars on her body. It was the grace of God to be able to recover her life.
