Chapter 466
Si Qing nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, remember to send him a letter from home to urge him, and don't let him live too comfortably outside and delay his study."

At this time, Si Jinsong, who was sitting by the window reading a hundred miles away, suddenly sneezed and shivered all over his body.

He rubbed his nose, wondering a little: "It's strange, could it be that I caught a cold?"

After muttering something, he lowered his head and continued reading.

Si Qing took Si Zhengping around the market, bought some caramel and silk flowers, and prepared to take them back to distribute to the children in the village.

Then I went shopping in the street again, bought some snacks, and my stomach was full after a long circle, and most of the time passed.

Seeing that it was time for dinner again, Si Qing took Si Zhengping back to the inn. Seeing that the three of Xiao He hadn't come back, they went out to have dinner first.

It was already dark when we wobbled and waited to return to the inn.

The three of Xiao He finally returned to the inn, and as soon as they entered the door, they couldn't wait to talk to Si Qing about today's feather picking process.

At the end, he said excitedly: "Grandma, you don't know that after we picked up the feathers, the county magistrate Zhao was very excited when he saw the peacock, so he asked us to pay 50 taels of silver for each of us on the spot!"

As they said that, the three of them quickly took out the silver in their arms, there were six large silver ingots of 20 taels, and three small silver ingots of ten taels.

Si Zhengping, who had been listening to their words the whole time, with a very calm attitude, saw the round silver ingots, and immediately lost his composure.

"My God, so much money!"

Si Zhengping reached out his hand to touch the big silver ingot, and couldn't stop grinning.

"Grandma, I thought the 50 taels you said to Guanye Xing last time meant three people would give 50 taels in total. I didn't expect the county magistrate to directly pay 50 taels per person. This adds up to 150 taels!"

"No, when County Magistrate Zhao sent someone to give us the money, we were all stunned. We thought he had taken it by mistake. Finally, we found out that it was my aunt and County Magistrate Zhao who agreed, 50 taels of silver per person."

Xiao He took the words and almost danced with excitement.

Li Shi and Liu Qiaoniang also laughed from ear to ear.

"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to my aunt. In my opinion, we should give 20 taels to each of my aunts. If it wasn't for my aunt, let alone making money, we might never see so much money in our lifetime!"

As Mrs. Li said, she directly stuffed a large 20 tael silver ingot into Si Qing's arms.

Seeing this, Xiao He's Liu Qiaoniang immediately took out 20 taels from her share and stuffed it into Si Qing's arms.

Si Qing stepped aside in a hurry, and shook his little hand: "This money is your hard-earned money, just keep it, don't give it to me."

"Haha... Auntie, just take it. If it weren't for you, no matter how hard they worked, they would never have had such an opportunity. You deserve it, Auntie." Si Zhengping smiled and stroked his beard, while persuading Si Qing Receive the money.

However, Si Qing still confiscated it.

This money was earned by Xiao He and the others after so long, so there was no need for her to divide it up.

Of course, the main reason for this is that she made a lot of money. Selling peacock feathers earned her a full 1000 taels of silver bills. The dozens of taels of Xiao He and the others are not worth a penny in Si Qing's eyes. carry.

Si Qing asked the three of them to collect their money and hurry down to rest.

After picking up the peacock feathers all day, the eyes of Xiao He and the three of them were all red, and their brows and eyes were full of fatigue. It was all because they got the money and they were too excited.

Now sharing the joy with Si Qing, everyone is really sleepy, and everyone is going to go back to the next room to have a good rest.
