After rebirth, Bai Yueguang's abandoned wife is soft and unstoppable

Since February, the capital has been cloudy and rainy, and it has been even worse in March.

The flowers in the garden often bloom in the morning and wither in the afternoon.

Many people in Yongzhong Hou's Mansion fell ill and coughed non-stop.

Xiangxiang came to Qianru and said that the Prince's Mansion of Hedong County was the same.

Especially Changsun Ji coughed all night, and only slept for a while during the day when he couldn't cough anymore.

"I've heard people say that this is due to the unfavorable years. I need to go to burn incense and pray for blessings!"

So, the two sisters agreed to go to Guanli to offer incense together.

The aristocrats in the capital all preferred the Miaofa Temple, but because of the previous entanglements, the two had no choice but to retreat and choose the Zixia Temple.

Speaking of which, Zixia Temple is the most prosperous Taoist temple in the capital.

Although most of the people who come in and out are ordinary people, and there is a little bit of extravagance, but the old temple master Kumu Taoist opens the door of convenience every first and fifteenth day of the new year, donating doctors and administering medicine.

Decades are like a day.

Therefore, there are a lot of devout pilgrims here.

Especially on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, it is basically difficult for pilgrims who arrive late to squeeze into the mountain gate.

Therefore, the two wisely avoided these two days.

The twelfth of March is a good day for the trustee of Xiangxiang to make a fortune, and it is said that everything is suitable.

For this incense offering, she personally made a lot of lucky bags, put a penny in each bag, and planned to ask for some talismans in Guanli, and put one in each bag.

Then give the lucky bag to other pilgrims in need to accumulate blessings for the county prince's mansion.

Qianru, on the other hand, prepared medicinal materials, and sent people to Zixia Temple early to prepare them. When the time came, she would set up a cauldron at the mountain gate and dispense the medicinal materials in the name of Yongzhonghoufu.

The two sisters worked hard for two days, but when they arrived at Zixia Temple, something happened.

The talismans in the temple are sold out.

Xiangxiang's lucky bag was short of good intentions, and it contained a penny empty, and felt that it was too shabby to get it out, so he had to pour it all out and donate the sesame oil money all at once.

But Qianru's medicine is in short supply.

A pot of medicine was boiled three times, and hundreds of people were still waiting in line.

Right now, wind-cold medicine in the capital is surprisingly expensive. She thought that if it wasn't the first or fifteenth day of the lunar new year, there might not be so many pilgrims, so she only bought more than 500 taels of medicinal materials.

This situation is obviously not enough!

Xiangxiang whispered: "We just want to accumulate some blessings. You don't need to engage in such a big battle, right? There are hundreds of thousands of people in the capital, and even if you pay back your family's wealth, it's not enough."

She also thinks this is the case, but there are more and more people queuing up to get the medicine, and now they are withdrawing. If they are scolded for being stingy, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
How to do it?

The servant girl suggested to boil the medicine dregs a few more times. All the other big families she met did this. When the smell of the medicine faded, the pilgrims would leave by themselves.

She went to the pot and sniffed it.

The smell of medicine is still very strong, it seems feasible.

On a whim, she did just that.

Sure enough, some pilgrims left in disappointment when they smelled that the smell of the medicine had faded.

But doing so always feels uneasy.

There seem to be many voices in my ears scolding "being rich is not benevolent".

Just when she was feeling guilty, Liu Tang jumped in front of her in an instant, "Hey, you are doing something good? How many times have you boiled the medicine?"

She blushed involuntarily, and hurriedly told him to keep his voice down.

Liu Tang made the sign of the cross to her contemptuously, and she shyly raised three fingers.

"What?" Liu Tang exclaimed, "You are too stingy, you actually cooked it thirty times."

"What are you talking nonsense about, it's only been three times."

Liu Tang picked up the dregs of the medicine and smelled it, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, the smell of your medicine has already faded, if you continue to distribute it, your Yongzhonghou Mansion will become a big laughing stock tomorrow."

"How can I become a laughing stock when I do good deeds?" At this moment, she noticed a strong smell of medicine on Liu Tang's body, and suddenly realized.

This kid must have hoarded medicinal materials and wanted to come here to blackmail her.

When I asked, it was true.

"If the weather wasn't so humid recently, I wouldn't sell it to you cheaply. How about it? Think about it?" Seeing that she was a little indifferent, Liu Tang said again: "You are high-ranking dignitaries, so I will send this little medicine. If you go out, you will definitely be laughed at!"

By doing such a good deed, isn't it just a matter of accumulating some blessings and earning a little bit of good reputation along the way?

Is it going to be self-defeating?
Seeing that she was a little shaken, Liu Tang rolled his eyes around a few times and made a violent move.

"It is said that Princess Nandu and her son-in-law will donate medicine and give medicine to Miaofa Temple in the near future. He is a royal nobleman, so he must spend a lot of money. If you are so stingy, it will definitely lose face if you are compared."

"Yes, if we are compared by anyone, we must not be compared by them." Xiangxiang excitedly grabbed Qianru's hand, encouraging her to be more generous.

She gritted her teeth and went all out, and ordered someone to put up a sign saying that the Prince's Mansion of Hedong County and the Marquis of Yongzhong's Mansion would apply medicine in Zixia Temple for three days from the thirteenth to the fifteenth.

This heartbreaking decision made her unable to eat and drink water when she returned home.

Liu Tang quadrupled the five-cent silver pack of wind-cold medicine and sold them to them.

In order to cope with the huge cost of medicine in the next three days, she and Xiangxiang each paid 1 taels.

This huge expense left only 50 taels of silver on the books of Yongzhonghoufu.

In the afternoon, Shangguan Yuan came back excitedly and told her that in order to celebrate the wedding of the princess and the son-in-law, the emperor decided to hold a spring search.

"Ru'er, I remember that the saddle you gave Jiang Xiaotian that year was pretty good, where did you order it? I plan to get a new one."

Qianru's teeth were chattering nervously, and she said repeatedly: "Why do you need to do this little thing, I will send someone to do it later. By the way, when will Chunsou be done?"

"The emperor said to pick a sunny day to do it, the end of the month at the latest."

It's only been ten days, where can I get so much money to buy expensive saddles?
Her bitter tears were about to fall, but she couldn't tell him that she had just spent all her money.

There was no other way, so she had no choice but to go to Liu Tang with a low eyebrow and discuss returning some medicinal materials.

But people need face and trees need skin. It's really uncomfortable to do such a contradictory thing.

She was outside Liujiazhuang, hesitating to walk, but she didn't expect to meet Changsunji and his wife.

Xiangxiang puffed her cheeks as soon as she got off the carriage, with a face of reluctance, and seeing her nearby, she lowered her head in embarrassment.

Knowing that their husband and wife were going to do the same thing as herself, Qianru felt much more at ease.

The three discussed for a while, and decided to form a rope to return [-]% of the money from Liu Tang.

Liu Tang is a well-known money stringer, worth ten shrewd businessmen in terms of money.

They didn't refund a penny, and they were forced to help him sell medicinal materials in order to make money.

As early as last year when he came back from the battlefield, Liu Tang started planning to resell medicinal materials.

For this reason, he went bankrupt and mortgaged Zhuangzi, and even borrowed money from everywhere to purchase a large number of medicinal materials for treating wind and cold from Jiangnan, especially those for reducing fever and relieving cough.

At present, there are more than a dozen rooms of medicinal materials piled up in Liujiazhuang.

If it is sold according to two pairs of medicines, it will be a huge profit!
