Autumn is high and crisp, which is a good time to dry fruits.

After nearly two months, Tang Zhengzhi still didn't come back, and he didn't even reply to any letter.Although the high-quality fruits grown are resistant to storage, they can only be stored for a few days longer, and it will not take as long as a month at all.

After Tang Zhengzhi left for nearly half a month, Mo Jingcheng began to make peaches and other perishable fruits into candied fruits first, and temporarily preserved the rest according to the method provided in the database.

The left and right fresh fruits can be grown again, and the preserved fruit tastes sweeter, but it is really a pity to let it go bad.

For the remaining apples and other more durable fruits, Mo Jingcheng picked today, called two young men to help, and made them all into candied fruits.

In fact, it should have been done a few days ago, but after confessing to Fang Yun recently, I was so happy that I forgot about it.Fortunately, when Fang Xiao was playing, he accidentally found a raisin at home, which reminded him.

As a future robot, reason has always occupied a large part of the brain, but that is only compared to people who have not met Xinyue, after all, he also has human emotions.

For the first time, Mo Jingcheng had a little affection for the researcher who designed him.

It was the researcher who pushed him into the abyss, and it was the researcher who gave him a chance.

This is true of everything in the world.

The two servants who were summoned were Tang Zhengzhi's confidantes, and if they were going to travel far away on weekdays, except that Shangshixuan handed over to the accountant to manage the bank, these two servants would help with the internal and external management.

Hearing that Fang Yun and Mo Jingcheng got married not long ago, the two servants even came to congratulate them in person.Now that they are together, they chatter non-stop.

But when he listened carefully, it was just Ah Jin who kept asking questions.

"Brother Yun, you have become more and more beautiful recently." Ah Jin is a little brother, even if he stares at other brothers, he will not be misunderstood, so no one finds it strange to say this.

These words made Fang Yun blush, he blinked his almond eyes and involuntarily glanced at Mo Jingcheng who was working with the dustpan.

Ah Ling, who was laboriously chopping apples at the side, raised his head immediately after hearing this, but just in time to see Fang Yun's eyes, he immediately understood what was going on.

Although Ah Ling is a young man, he has a rigorous temperament. He usually doesn't like Ah Jin's glib tongue, so he scolded: "What are you joking about? Be careful Mr. Mo knocks your tongue."

Intimidated, Ah Jin stuck out her tongue, pulled Fang Yun to the far side, moved all the unpeeled apples in the basin to that side, and chatted with Ah Ling with her back.

After getting married, Mo Jingcheng saw the mess in the courtyard, so he and Fang Yun tidied it up, so it is much more spacious now.Being moved by Ah Jin, his voice suddenly became inaudible.

Ah Ling, who was angry at his partner's childish behavior, gritted his teeth and chopped the apple until a dissatisfied voice stopped him.

"What are you doing? Can the apples be chopped up and made into candied fruit?"

Looking up, Mo Jingcheng was standing in front of him at some point, squinting at him.

In Ah Ling's impression, although Mo Jingcheng seldom scolded others loudly, as long as those deep eyes were narrowed, it would make the person who did something wrong feel uncomfortable without being blamed.

Realizing that he had made a mistake, Ah Ling lowered his head guiltily, looked at the apple juice and residues in his hands, and apologized earnestly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Mo, Ah Ling will never do it again."

For those who know their mistakes and can correct them, Mo Jingcheng is the happiest, so he feels nothing, "Clean it up and cut it well."

Ah Ling hurriedly replied: "Yes."

"Brother Ah Jin! Come and see the little windmill Xiaoer made!"

Because preserved fruit is difficult to get, Mo Jingcheng coaxed the young Fang Xiao to play aside, and did not let him do it.Fang Xiao is also often taken to Shangshixuan, so he is very familiar with the servants of Shangshixuan.

Among them, because of their similar personalities, Fang Xiao likes to play with Ah Jin the most, and shows him as soon as he has any fun things.

Hearing Fang Xiao's voice, Ah Jin turned around, and saw a happy smiling little dumpling holding two huge mulberry leaves in his hands, "pattapatta" running over with his short legs .

Two mulberry leaves fluttered in the wind, shaking in Xiaotuanzi's hands, Ah Jin smiled and opened his arms towards Fang Xiao.

At the moment Xiaotuanzi threw himself into Ah Jin's arms, the latter laughed "puchi": "Xiaotuanzi, do you call this a windmill? It's obviously a big green boat!"

Fang Xiao raised his head and looked at the mulberry leaf, and suddenly realized, "Brother Ah Jin is right!"

Then, he and Ah Jin hugged and laughed wildly, and almost fell into the apple basin.

All the people didn't look at it.

Hearing the laughter echoing in the yard, Ah Ling lowered his eyes, staring at the half-cut apple in his hand in a daze.Suddenly, my head felt warm, and I felt someone touching my head.

Looking up in confusion, Mo Jingcheng raised the corners of his lips, "You can join them too, you don't have to." Then he shouted at the two people who fell to the ground laughing, "Ah Ling said that he would like to join them." Look at your green boats!"

Hearing this, Ah Jin turned his head, not minding that Ah Ling had reprimanded him just now, and greeted him generously, "Come and see!"

Then, Mo Jingcheng pushed him over and said softly, "Go and have a look."

A Ling was pushed and staggered a few steps, she turned her head to look at Mo Jingcheng with a blushing face, and after receiving the encouraging eyes, she walked up to A Jin with a shy face.

Because of the distance, Mo Jingcheng couldn't hear what they were talking about, but seeing Ah Ling blushing from being teased by the two, he knew that they seemed to be getting along well.

"Brother Mo, how did you know that Ah Ling also wanted to join them?" Fang Yun took Ah Ling's place, cutting an apple and looking at Mo Jingcheng with bent eyes.

Looking into Fang Yun's clear eyes, Mo Jingcheng bowed his head and kissed him, and said with a smile, "You were like this before, you kept everything in your heart and didn't say anything."

When he saw Ah Ling's forbearance, it was like seeing Fang Yun from before.If there is something sad, wanting, or even unhappy, I don't want to tell others.

Even if he was lonely in his heart, he just smiled and covered it up.

But fortunately, Fang Yun is no longer alone.

The three children stared blankly at Mo Jingcheng's lips leaving Fang Yun's face, looked at each other, and giggled non-stop.

Fang Yun didn't expect Mo Jingcheng to kiss him in front of the dumplings, blushed immediately, and pushed Mo Jingcheng away in a panic to pick up the apples.

Looking at Fang Yun's back like a rabbit running away, Mo Jingcheng raised his eyes, turned around and met three pairs of curious eyes.

"Cut the apples."

The three little ones fled in despair.

While playing and working, dozens of catties of apples were cut up quickly, pickled with salt beans and neatly placed in the dustpan.

There is no fine salt in this world. Although salt beans are not as tasty as fine salt, the good thing is that salt beans can be found everywhere. You can pick a large basket in the forest at will. Pick more and spread more layers.

The round dustpan dried almost half the yard.Seeing the results of nearly a day of hard work, several people felt very satisfied.

Seeing everyone's hard work, Fang Yun killed the big fish kept in the water tank and cooked the fish in sour soup. The craftsmanship was still as good as ever, and was praised by Qiqi.

Ah Jin likes spicy food, but he can't eat spicy food very well, so he had to pour water into his stomach, and kept picking up the food with chopsticks. After a meal, he was full of water.

At sunset and dusk, having a lively dinner together in the yard is something that many people who are living abroad cannot force themselves to do.

After eating and drinking, just as the two servants left, a carriage stopped in front of the courtyard gate.

The body of the carriage was covered with a lot of mud, and even a corner of the wheel was missing, as if it had gone through some ordeal.

"Brother Mo, this carriage seems to be that of Shopkeeper Tang?"

As soon as the words fell, Tang Zhengzhi stumbled out from the inside. Although he was supported by a coachman, he seemed to be exhausted, crooked, and almost lost his footing when he landed on the ground and fell to the ground.

Mo Jingcheng hurried up to help him, frowning.

Tang Zhengzhi, who was originally somewhat obese, had lost more than half of his weight at this time, his eyes were black and blue, his clothes were torn and covered with a lot of mud, and he was only wearing socks on one foot, and his shoes were gone.

Tang Zhengzhi, who was being supported firmly, collected himself, raised his eyes and saw Mo Jingcheng's outline in a blur, his eyes darkened, "Help me in, water"

Mo Jingcheng didn't ask any further questions, and helped him into the main room.

Fortunately, not long ago, Mo Jingcheng saw that there was no place to greet people, so after discussing with Fang Yun, he asked the villagers to repair a small main room next to the main house, otherwise it would be very embarrassing to help people into the main room where the two slept.

Fang Xiao, who was playing with the green boat alone in the main room, immediately became vigilant when he saw an unknown person approaching.But seeing that his brother and brother-in-law were very nervous about this person, he knew that there seemed to be no danger, so he poured a bowl of tea sensiblely.

As if he hadn't drank water for a long time, Tang Zhengzhi picked up the bowl and poured it into his mouth, not caring that the water was a little hot.After drinking three bowls in succession, Tang Zhengzhi finally regained his strength, and his eyes became much clearer.

"After I came back, I came over to tell you the news non-stop, huh? This is"

Seeing Fang Yun and Mo Jingcheng looking at him worriedly, and a soft little dumpling beside him staring vigilantly, Tang Zhengzhi pointed at the little dumpling in puzzlement, "When did you have your child? But this child Is it too big?"

He only went out for a few months, so it wouldn't look like he went to the mountains and came back hundreds of years, right? ①

Fang Xiao, who inexplicably became the brother-in-law's son, hid behind Fang Yun, glaring at Tang Zhengzhi without saying a word.

He had never met Tang Zhengzhi before, but now he disliked Tang Zhengzhi at the first sight. He felt that this man was very smooth, so thorns grew all over his body.

When he was by Father's side, he saw that Father was always being bullied and insulted by this kind of person, so he was very displeased.

Fang Yun rarely saw Fang Xiao so vigilant, and explained softly: "That's shopkeeper Tang, don't be afraid."

Hearing this address, the thorns on Fang Xiao's body also slowly dissipated, but his eyes were still full of vigilance.From the conversations of other people, he knew that shopkeeper Tang was the shopkeeper of Shangshixuan, and he also knew that this person was helping his brother and brother-in-law to provide sales.

Tang Zhengzhi, who had regained some energy, didn't care about these things. He knew that he was not in a good state, and it was common for children to be frightened.

"That's my younger brother, Fang Xiao. Xiao'er, come forward." Fang Yun wanted to push Fang Xiao forward, but the latter refused to go out anyway, grabbing Fang Yun's trouser legs to reveal a pair of big eyes come.

Seeing this, Tang Zhengzhi also waved his hand, "It's okay, Brother Yun, why do you suddenly have a younger brother? Forget it, let me tell you about the things I have done first."

"Before I set off, I sent an express letter to the mayor of Osmanthus Town, which is two hundred miles away from here, and asked him to help me find some ways. It’s a rich family, and the merchants inside are also connected with the imperial court, so it’s impossible to have no idea at all, right?”

Tang Zhengzhi drank half a bowl of tea again, and angrily patted the table, "As a result, this bastard took my money, accepted my letter, and ran all the way there, and he actually said no! I was so angry that I called Xiao Xiao!" The servant pushed him to the ground and beat him up, so he was willing to find someone to complete the contract for me."

As he spoke, he took out a contract that had not yet been fingerprinted from his pocket and gave it to Mo Jingcheng.It roughly states that the shop in Osmanthus Town has reached a cooperative relationship with Mo Jingcheng in Xinghua Town, and is willing to accept the fruits from Shangshixuan, but the details need to be discussed in person.

There was also a price written on the deed, and upon closer inspection, the price on it was nearly ten times higher than that sold in Xinghua Town.If the cost of the carriage and planting is removed, they can make a net profit of about six times the current amount.

"The price is too expensive." Mo Jingcheng frowned.

Although fruit is not common in this world and therefore more expensive, but ten times the price is too much.

"Don't worry about the high price. People in Osmanthus Town don't lack this kind of money. It's very close to the capital. There are many officials and eunuchs. Maybe they can still do business with the court."

Tang Zhengzhi knew what he was worried about, and waved his tattered sleeves to explain.

Since the businessman said so, Mo Jingcheng didn't worry about anything.Although he can grasp the prices in this world through the database, he is not from here after all. He was originally afraid of driving up prices, but since the native businessmen have said so, it is nothing.

The closer one is to the capital, the higher the prices will be, which is also the rule of this world.Now that it has come, it must be obeyed.

Just looking at Tang Zhengzhi's listless appearance, Mo Fang and Mo Fang were a little puzzled.

Hearing what Tang Zhengzhi said, although the distance was long and difficult to travel, it seemed that it didn't take too long to get things done.

"Did shopkeeper Tang meet a robber?" Mo Jingcheng asked the doubts in his heart.

Unexpectedly, Tang Zhengzhi sighed, and exhausted the two months of work: "This matter could have been completed in half a month, but we ran into robbers on the way there. I escaped. When I came back, I encountered a storm again, and I was trapped in it for nearly a month before it subsided."

In this way, Mo Jingcheng was even more grateful to Tang Zhengzhi.

In the past, he and Tang Zhengzhi were just business acquaintances, you make cakes and I sell them, that's all.But Tang Zhengzhi is now willing to do this for him. This kind of friendship will be invaluable in the future world.

But Tang Zhengzhi seemed to be disdainful and said: "I, Tang Zhengzhi, like people, I have to help you no matter what. Don't be hypocritical to me, and it is worthwhile to do my best to you."

In this way, Mo Jingcheng kept this respect in his heart and waited to repay it in the future.

Now that the negotiation was almost done, the shop over there asked to negotiate with Mo Jingcheng in person, so Mo Fang and the two packed up some dried fruit and decided to go to Osmanthus Town to discuss it in person.

Tang Zhengzhi had traveled all the way, and when he came back, he was so tired that he came here again. He wanted to stay overnight to have a good rest, but he thought that two months had passed, and there must be many things that Ah Jin and Ah Ling could not handle at Shangshixuan. Needing to make a decision in person, he took a sip of hot tea and boarded the carriage again.

But before leaving, Tang Zhengzhi pinched Fang Xiao's face while Fang Xiao was not paying attention, "Isn't it your son who was born before?"

As a result, Fang Xiao bit his hand mercilessly.

It didn't hurt or itchy, but in order to tease him, Tang Zhengzhi pretended to be in pain and withdrew his hand, "Oh, this guy has a tough temper! Mo Jingcheng, if you get married with Brother Yun in the future, But you must give birth to a child like this group!"

Mo Jingcheng, who had been married for nearly half a month, interlocked fingers with Fang Yun, and said calmly, "We are already married."

Tang Zhengzhi, who didn't hear clearly, nodded in agreement, "Yes."

Immediately, he reacted and raised his head suddenly, "Ah?!"
