Chapter 241 A New Way to Make Money
This is not impossible, even Shi Shi has seen it many times.

Of course, Fang Qingqing's current medical skills are not as good as Dr. Chen's.

But she can always know some tricks and small remedies, and can cure some minor ailments without spending a few pennies, helping many people around her.

Some people cannot afford the consultation fee, but everyone has a conscience, so they will give some of their own things to show their gratitude.

As a matter of course, after listening to Fang Qingqing's words, Mrs. Shi thought that the third daughter-in-law had cured some family's disease, and the family had a lot of cotton, so she specially donated it as a gift.

The cotton and cotton cloths were all brought back, but Fang Qingqing was really not good at female celebrities, so Shi Shi and Li Xiaomei took over the heavy responsibility of sewing cotton clothes and quilts.

After putting away the things, Shi Shi still told Fang Qingqing: "Silly girl, raising a family is something a man should do. You should keep the hard-earned money you earned from visiting the doctor for yourself."

Just when Li Xiuping came back at this time, he frowned when he heard his mother's words.

Sure enough, it was the other way around. Fang Qingqing was his mother's own daughter, but he was actually an outsider, right?

However, she still smiled and asked what was going on, and then slapped her chest proudly: "Mother is right, I will be responsible for the things that should be bought at home for the winter."

Then the old Li's family knew why editor Li could speak so heavily today.

It turns out that today's emperor appreciates talents and at the same time treats his courtiers very generously. In addition to the monthly salary, he will also give out other things during the New Year and holidays.

For example, when the weather is cold, winter things will be distributed to officials and their families.

There are actually chicken, duck and fish meat, which can be marinated and kept for the New Year, and there are a lot of charcoal fires.

Then, it is said that there are 100 taels of silver, a full 100 taels.

"Because the Ministry of Households does not have complete statistics on what each family needs, so His Majesty said that we should just send money and let us buy it ourselves."

There was money and all kinds of good things, so Li Xiuping hurried back with the list and asked his father, eldest brother and second brother to go and get all the things back tomorrow.

Of course, not every official has 100 taels, this is purely a reward from His Majesty the Emperor.

There is also the reason of Prince An, Li Xiuping didn't intend to tell his parents and daughter-in-law about these complicated court affairs.

The reason why Fang Qingqing had such an estimate was actually because the system reminded her.

Originally, she was quite rare. She was purely a southerner in her previous life, but she had never seen what a real goose feather snow looked like.

It turned out that it really snowed within two days. Fang Qingqing still felt fresh at first, but she saw the vast expanse of whiteness at a glance.

The scene is very grand and spectacular, and it looks trendy.

But when the snow hasn't stopped for three consecutive days, it's not rare but a little troublesome.

Not to mention the snowy weather, there is no big road or concrete road outside now, and the road will be very muddy and slippery after it rains and snows.

Clothes, shoes and socks will be soaked when going out, and it is easy to fall when walking.

But at this time, there are more patients at the pharmacy and they are busy every day, so Fang Qingqing must go there.

It was the first time she had no experience, and when she walked to the pharmacy, a pair of cotton shoes were completely wet and she sat there all morning, feeling very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the pharmacy was prepared. They prepared jujube and ginger tea to keep out the cold early in the morning.

Even so, Fang Qingqing, who hadn't really adapted to this climate, still felt overwhelmed.

Shi's family also lacked experience in dealing with it, so it was Mrs. Jin who came here specially and taught them many ways for ordinary people in Beijing to spend the winter in previous years.

Li Dalang and Li Erlang were even more diligent. He would sweep the snow before going out every day, not only cleaning the yard clean.

Even the large area outside the door has been cleaned up, and the free soup supply of Lao Li's house has not stopped these days.

It's just that they are boiled in the house and then taken out, so they are not placed outside all the time, and everyone understands this.

Originally, when it was snowing, there were a lot fewer people deliberately walking outside.

For example, Sanmao Simao's school has already started a holiday, and they have to wait until the next year to enroll.

The food shop has also been closed for the past few days. In such a cold day, the snow is slippery and the road is difficult to walk. There are not many people with the door open.

It is necessary to make a charcoal fire and prepare a lot of ingredients to put in the back kitchen. Li Dalang, Mrs. Li and the others have discussed it with Fang Qingqing, and it is not worthwhile at all.

"Big brother and second brother, you've worked hard in the second half of the year, so why not close the shop these few days and come back to take a good rest."

When a few people thought about it, this was indeed the case, and since they came to the capital, they were all busy and couldn't spend time with their parents.

To put it bluntly, he didn't go out for the past few days, and even specially asked Da Mao to go to the official house to spread the word.

It's really not easy to walk in snowy weather, so I might as well ask Saburo not to come back these days.

As for Fang Qingqing's side, the pharmacy really couldn't leave, so Da Mao and Er Mao would take turns to accompany and escort the third aunt there every morning, lest it would be unsafe for her to walk alone with an umbrella.

It's just that the heavy snow fell for several days in a row. At first, all the eldest sons and daughters-in-law were at home, and old man Li Shi was still laughing.

So many people, so lively.

For two days in a row, Shi's eyes began to hurt, especially his two sons who were immobile in the cold but had a big appetite.

Even the grandchildren began to dislike it:
"You three aunts didn't eat much of the food on this big table, but you all ate it."

Shi Shi is angry, she is thinking that Qingqing still needs to go to the pharmacy every day and help others in such a cold weather.

How heartbroken it is that she specially asked Mrs. Li to make stewed pork ribs, braised pork and fish, a few hard dishes.

As a result, Qingqing was busy at the pharmacy and said she had no time to come back for dinner.

These delicious foods were eaten up by several men, big and small!

Shi Shi is so angry, you said that it is thanks for raising such a large group of idlers at home.

Especially those few children who said nothing about going to school, and actually took such a long vacation.

After Fang Qingqing came home that day, she found that her in-laws were not as cheerful as they used to be. After the snow fell, few people came to visit.

In fact, there is only more than half a month left before the New Year, and in the capital, it is no better than my hometown, and I don’t know how to kill the New Year pigs and do other tiring work.

Probably, the New Year's atmosphere is not strong and there is nothing to do at home, so the two elders start to feel flustered and depressed.

After the little Si Mao who filed the complaint told the third aunt about what happened at home and how her grandmother disliked them, Fang Qingqing couldn't stop laughing.

He was not idle, and thought of a new way to make money for them.

Anyway, the children are all at home, not to mention the three and four who are still studying in the academy, the older and the second have also gone to school in the county for a period of time.

In addition to arithmetic, it is natural to write.

So Fang Qingqing let them write Spring Festival couplets.
