Started to get rich after exile

Chapter 8

Dongxia didn't think about this, "Sister-in-law, what's the matter, you and Brother Ye should make it clear, so that you don't get into a fight with Brother Ye over such a trivial matter."

Ming Lanying waved her hands indifferently, "I know, don't worry."

Ming Lanying didn't think that this incident would affect her. Song Shanshan's sudden desire to return to Beijing may have caused an accident, and Ye Juelu may also know that there was an accident, so she has been lukewarm to her these days. It's quite big.

But, to put it bluntly, this matter has nothing to do with her and will not affect her planned future, so she just pretends not to know.

But she didn't expect Song Shanshan to want to see her, she always had a bad feeling.

As soon as Song Jun came to invite her, Ming Lanying refused very politely, "I don't have any friendship with her, so I won't see her for the last time, right? If she doesn't get hurt, I don't get hurt."

Song Junyi couldn't believe it, "Shanshan is already like this, so what if I just want to say a few words to you? Why are you like this!"

Ming Lanying picked out her ears, "Are you sure? If you're not afraid of her dying early from my anger, I'll go and see what flowers she can say."

Ye Juelu didn't go to the blacksmith shop today, and just finished cleaning up the duck droppings, "Since she doesn't want to go, then forget it."

"Who said I won't go?" Ming Lanying suddenly rebelled, and went to see what else could be done, "Don't you lead the way?"

Ye Juelu shook his head at Song Junyi calmly, Song Junyi held back his anger and led the way, Ning'er wanted to follow her, but was stopped by Ming Lanying, "You are at home with Dad, it is unlucky, children can't go .”

Ning'er obediently waited for her at home, Ming Lanying followed Song Junyi and walked for a quarter of an hour before arriving at the magnificent Song's house, the small courtyard they entered twice, it is considered a big family here.Although the furnishings of Song Shanshan's boudoir are simple, they are carefully arranged, with simple and elegant curtains, flowers in vases, and half-dried writing on the desk.

Song Shanshan was half leaning on the bed, wearing a veil to cover her face, but there was no sign of weakness in her eyes. I have to say that Doctor Zhao's medicine is really good.

Ming Lanying sat on a stool far away from the bed, crossed her legs, and didn't even bother to smile, "Tell me what you want, I'm very busy."

Song Shanshan looked at her firmly, "You must know how my body is doing."

Ming Lanying clasped her fingertips and casually looked at her hands, "Really? So what?"

Song Shanshan said coldly: "It doesn't matter whether you know it or not, what I want to tell you is that even if I go back to Beijing, I won't give up on Big Brother Ye."

Ming Lanying chuckled, "I've seen that people are shameless and invincible. I thought others would say that you are infatuated and affectionate? Anyone with a brain knows that you are shameless. You stare at other people's men every day, and you are a lady." What? Why do you want to be a concubine so much?"

"you!"

"It's a pity that you are going back, and you won't be able to see you, Brother Ye. I also want to fulfill your wish, but you, Brother Ye, disagree, and I can't help it~"

Song Shanshan clenched the bed sheet tightly with both hands, veins popped faintly on the back of her white hands, and stared at her angrily with red almond eyes.

"Yo~ Are you angry now? Haven't you ever thought that your big brother Ye is not interested in you? Tsk tsk tsk-tsk tsk tsk - I really put money on my face. After so many years, your big brother Ye has been interested in you and married you long ago , otherwise how can I have my current position?" Ming Lanying looked at her with a smile, "Even if you are a concubine, I will not drink your tea, I feel disgusting."

Song Shanshan glared at her, "Ming Lanying! Just wait for me, you just gave birth to a dumb son, Brother Ye only kept you for the sake of his son! I will let you die sooner or later!"

Ming Lanying didn't smile anymore, her brows and eyes became cold, and she looked a little arrogant, "Then I'll wait, but I'll tell you something in advance, if something happens to me, you, Big Brother Ye, won't be able to live alone."

Will be pulled by her to die together.

Song Shanshan glared at her viciously and panted heavily, wishing she could be torn to pieces now, Ming Lanying was too lazy to listen to her nonsense, so she patted her ass and left.

After leaving Song's house, she hurriedly went to find Dongxia, flustered, as if she had been stained with something dirty.

"Dongxia, Dongxia! Quickly show me if Song Shanshan has poisoned me. She bluntly said that she would kill me without a whole body. She scared me to death!"

Dong Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she still took her pulse and checked, "Sister-in-law, you think too much, how could she have such a powerful poison."

"That's hard to say. She bluntly said that she wanted me to die without a whole body. This woman is really crazy for Ye Juelv."

Dongxia believed her words, and frowned in disbelief, "She really said that? Sister-in-law, you should be more careful with her in the future."

"Of course." Ming Lanying checked her arms and legs left and right, "Take a look to see if there is any dirt on my body, I have stayed in her room for so long, don't get something that shouldn't be on it It’s too bad luck to bring it back.”

Dongxia squeezed her waist, and cried out in surprise, Ming Lanying was startled, "What's wrong? Really?"

"Yes! Sister-in-law, you have lost a lot of weight!"

The corner of Dongxia's mouth twitched into a smile, and she pulled her wide hem to tighten. Her clothes didn't fit well anymore. The loose clothes covered her flesh, but she looked a little lazy.

Ming Lanying pinched her faintly curved waist. She has a large base, and she will lose weight very quickly. In addition, she is determined, and the effect during this time is also obvious. "It's not in vain to waste my fasting and exercise for so long, but I'm still fat , according to my current speed, it should take another half a year."

The topic of the two immediately shifted to weight loss and body shaping. Doctor Zhao, who was sitting in the yard listening to the two talk, coughed suddenly, and the movement was quite loud.

Dongxia poked her head out in doubt, "Grandfather?"

Imperial Physician Zhao said unhurriedly: "Dampness comes from the inside, it must be too much cream and wine, or too much tea soup, or eat raw cold melons and fruits and sweet and greasy things... its color is white and fat, Muscles are soft, but the place is cold and dry, eats a lot of meat and meat, likes to be quiet and hates to move, if overeating fat and sweet, and neglects work and sports, or sits and lies down for a long time, so that the essence in the body cannot be consumed, and it will accumulate over time to form fat , the method of treatment should always distinguish the yin and yang of its constitution."

Ming Lanying also poked her head out, but she didn't understand a word, but Dongxia's eyes lit up, "Grandfather, you have a way to make Lady Ming lose weight!"

Ming Lanying was taken aback by Dongxia's resolute words, and Imperial Physician Zhao stroked her goatee, "What's so difficult about it? She has already kept her mouth shut, and she is also active. With acupuncture, cupping and decoction, it will get twice the result with half the effort."

Ming Lanying was stunned, how could it be like this? !
Dongxia excitedly shook Ming Lanying's arm, "Grandpa, teach me, I'll try it for my sister-in-law some other day!"

Ming Lanying raised her hands in agreement, "Okay, okay! Dongxia, hurry up and learn, I'll go back and make fried fish fillets, fried potato chips, fried crispy meat, and steamed pastries as thanks!"

Imperial Physician Zhao snorted, "Fawning."

Ming Lanying smiled and rubbed her hands together, "You don't move, old man. I lost weight for the sake of Ye Juelu. A lady's beauty is also a man's confidence."

Doctor Zhao's eyes widened, "Nonsense, cheeky, don't spoil Dongxia!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Ming Lanying smiled with crooked eyebrows, "I'll fry a few taels of peanuts for you later, make two cold dishes, and serve you wine."

Dongxia also laughed, "Grandfather, how long will it take for sister-in-law to lose weight?"

"It's not advisable to go too fast, or it will hurt your body." Imperial Physician Zhao twirled his beard, and said slowly: "Keep your mouth shut and practice in moderation, two months is best."

Ming Lanying was overjoyed, faster than she expected, "Sure enough, you are a master of Xinglin, with excellent medical skills, it's all up to you!"

Imperial Physician Zhao scolded with a smile, "Look at this prospect, women can't always use sex to treat others. If sex fades, they will fall in love with others, and love will reject them. You have to think more about yourself."

Ming Lanying nodded obediently, "I know, I know, but it's human nature to love beauty, so don't worry, I know it."

Imperial Physician Zhao sighed helplessly, seemingly regretful and powerless.

After Ming Lanying returned home, she found that Ye Juelu was still teaching Ning'er how to read at home, as if she had something to discuss with her.

"Don't you need to go to the blacksmith shop today?"

"Yeah." Ye Juelu rubbed Ning'er's head and told him to feed the lamb and chicken, "I have something to tell you."

"Let's talk." Ming Lanying took a sip of water, and then took out the earthen pot to count money. This is her little hobby, and counting money makes people feel happy.

Ye Juelu looked at the table of money and bank notes, hesitated for a moment, took out his money bag and put them on the table together, "I want to buy a house for Mr. Zhao and his wife."

"Principal Zhao is also seeing patients now, and Dongxia said that he has saved some money." It's not that Ming Lanying has never thought about it, but according to Physician Zhao's arrogance and Dongxia's psychology, doing so seems to disrespect them, so she is thinking about not way.

"I know, but winter is coming soon, and this year it's going to be very cold, longer and colder."

Ming Lanying curiously took his money bag and counted it. Last time, he didn't spend what he shared, and there was two more money, which he presumably saved.

Ming Lanying didn't say anything, and put ten taels of silver into his purse, "It's more than twenty taels in total. I suggest that it's better to help them renovate the house. First, our new house is next to them, so close. Renovation saves money, they don’t have to move so much trouble, and it’s easy to accept, it’s best if you help them renovate yourself.”

20 taels can buy a new one, but Ming Lanying is thoughtful, using the best materials, 20 taels is enough for refurbishment, and there are two more sets of furniture, Ye Juelu silently accepted the money bag.

"Thank you."

Ming Lanying looked at him jokingly, "Is Ruanfan delicious?"

Ye Juelu: "..." had to bow his head.

"I have enough money in my hand. If I renovate it once and for all, I'll do it better. I'll choose the materials and make them strong." Ming Lanying counted the remaining money, and when she put it away and put it in the earthen jar, she did it. Found a cloth bag in the corner.

She took it out and saw that it was the jewelry she had hidden before, almost forgot, it was estimated to be less than eight taels of silver, but it was useless to keep it, Ming Lanying didn't like it now, so she pawned it, and pawned the cloth bag Passed it to Ye Juelu, and also gave five taels of silver.

"Tomorrow I will secretly pawn it. By the way, I will customize a set of furniture for myself. It must be complete, better wood, polished and smooth, and sent to the new house. Then I will buy three new sets of bedding and so on, and send them there together. Order a wooden box, I can hide the silver with peace of mind, the earthen jar is not solid, so let’s do it first.”

"This is your dowry."

"Oh, I know."

Earning money is for spending, and you can still earn after spending. Ming Lanying is a very materialistic person. She likes money and likes to spend it.Ming Lanying didn't care about this thing, anyway, the original body wanted to be this thing in exchange for travel expenses before, and it's not much different from her now in exchange for living expenses.

"By the way, go to the new house and check it out. Last time I saw it, I felt that there was a bathroom missing. You can find a few people to build one next to the kitchen. The yard is big enough, and it should be bigger and spacious, and the money is enough."

Ye Juelu was holding the small cloth bag, Ming Lanying had already made up his mind, and he couldn't stop him, subconsciously thinking that it would be better to buy it later and pay her back.

He returned the fifty taels of silver to her. It would take less than 20 taels to renovate the old house and make custom furniture. He had more than 20 taels in his hand and still had more.He hadn't visited the new house yet, so he only knew the location. The deed stated that the land was quite large, so he happened to stop by to have a look, and went out with his cloth bag and money bag.

"Understood, I will go to the craftsman to discuss the renovation, and Doctor Zhao needs you to talk about it."

"can."

This is probably what it's like to live in a partnership, with a clear division of labor and mutual help, but the friendship is not deep.

Ming Lanying originally wanted to look for Dongxia tomorrow afternoon, but she didn't expect her to come early in the morning, bringing her ancestral medicine box with her.

"Sister-in-law! Grandpa taught me for a day yesterday, and I will help you as soon as I am proficient!"

"So fast? Dongxia is amazing!"

Dongxia was excited but hesitant, "Sister-in-law, do you dare to let me have an injection? I have only tried it on bronze figures, not on humans."

"Why don't you dare, we are so powerful in Dongxia, of course I don't worry, I just have something to tell you."

Ming Lanying just made a basket of candied haws, and Hawthorn bought a small basket from shopkeeper Li at a huge sum of two hundred renminbi, and made a small bunch of candied haws, which were crystal clear and lovely.I gave Dongxia a taste of something new, stuffed a small handful for Ning'er, and asked him to play with the lamb around, "Go, don't run away."

Ning'er nodded obediently, Ming Lanying grabbed a handful of chaff from the corner of the wall and scattered it on the ground, and a row of little sparrows flapped their wings and came down to peck.Ma San took care of Grandma Feng for her, but there was an extra skinny Ma Liu. Ming Lanying gave Ma Yi a wink. Ma Yi realized that the mission was coming, and after she was full, she brought a bunch of little sparrows to watch for her. The child went.

"Sister-in-law, take off your clothes and lie on your stomach. The acupuncture points to be pierced today are on the back. They are all women. Don't be shy, I won't look too much."

Ming Lanying squeezed her slender waist in a funny way, "I'm afraid you'll be shy, my lump of fat is nothing to look at, so don't worry about piercing it."

Dongxia closed the door, laid out the needles, set up the moxa sticks and cupping jars, lit a candle to burn the moxa, walked around her back with one hand holding the needle and the other hand, touching the acupuncture points, and stopped to rest after a stick of incense. .

Dong Xia breathed a sigh of relief, "My sister-in-law has delicate skin and a well-proportioned skeleton, she must look good after losing weight."

Ming Lanying endured the pain and breathed in, and forced a smile when she heard Dong Xia's words, Dong Xia was shocked when she noticed a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you! Are you uncomfortable? Oh, I'll withdraw it for you!"

"No, no need..." Ming Lanying felt a little weak from the pain, and raised her hand softly, "It's okay, I am afraid of pain, the problem is not big, wait for me to take it easy, I have something to tell you."

Dongxia watched in amazement for a long time, and only after Ming Lanying eased the pain did she believe that she was fine.

"Acupuncture, cupping, and Ai Xun don't hurt too much? Sister-in-law, why are you in such pain? Is there a hidden disease? I'll ask my grandfather to take a closer look at it for you?"

"It's okay, it's just that I'm more afraid of pain. It's not a big deal since I was a child." Ming Lanying lay on her stomach and couldn't move, so she could only hold her down with her hands. "It just so happens that I have something to tell you, so sit down and listen." .”

"it is good."

Dongxia carefully wiped the sweat off her forehead, Ming Lanying frowned slightly in pain, but it didn't affect her speech.

"I heard that this year will be a severe winter. During this period of time, I also made some jewelry, sold duck eggs to save some savings, and bought the house closest to your house. We will be neighbors in the future." Ming Lanying squeezed lightly. Squeezing Dongxia's hand, "But I don't trust you and your grandfather, I know you two are stubborn, so I asked Ye Juelu to discuss renovating your house, it doesn't cost a lot of money."

Before Dong Xia was happy that the two families had become new neighbors, he was anxious to hear the words behind him, "How can this be done, sister-in-law, my grandfather and I have saved some money these days, we can figure it out by ourselves, and we can't bother you and Ye Big brother—”

Ming Lanying smiled as expected, "Why not? You have already called me sister-in-law, and sister-in-law loves you so much. Besides, it's not for nothing. Didn't you help me lose weight? Acupuncture and cupping for a month is worth more than renovating an old house!"

"Besides, it's useless for you to refuse now. I've already asked Ye Juelu to kill you first, so don't worry."

Dongxia also knew that they were doing it for the good of her father and her father, and she couldn't express the gratitude in her heart, her eyes turned red, "Sister-in-law, you are so kind to me, how can I, how can I repay you..."

"Oh, silly girl, why don't you repay me? Aren't you helping me now? You want to help me lose weight! This is a big deal!"

Dongxia rubbed her eyes, and said seriously: "Sister-in-law, don't worry! I will definitely make you thinner and more beautiful!"

Ming Lanying laughed, "Okay, okay, I'll leave it to you. After a while, I'll pick a good day and auspicious day to move there. You help me with acupuncture and cupping to make decoction, and I'll make delicious food for you every day."

"Ok!"

Ye Juelu at the door heard Dongxia's voice in the room, the hand that was about to push the door suddenly stopped, and knocked instead.

Dongxia was wondering who it was, Ye Juelu said something, Ming Lanying thought she should come back to get something, and asked Dongxia to open the door to ask, but don't let it in.

Dongxia felt that it shouldn't matter if the two were husband and wife, but it was still not easy to be honest with each other in broad daylight, so she went over and opened a gap to get out.

"Brother Ye, do you want to take something?"

"Hmm." Ye Juelu looked at the closed door, "What are you doing?"

"I'm treating my sister-in-law with acupuncture and moxibustion. If Brother Ye wants to bring something, let me help you."

"It's okay, it's nothing important."

Ye Juelu seemed to be leaving, Dongxia said in a strange way: "Brother Ye, Song Shanshan is going back to Beijing, you can live a good life with your sister-in-law in the future, she is a very nice person, Song Shanshan is not suitable for you."

Ye Juelu looked at her suspiciously, "I know."
