Chapter 321

Back in the South Red Building, Liu Yunxiang asked the guy who stayed here if the rest of the goods had been delivered.

"The clothes are ready and have been delivered to the customers, but many customers have asked us if we can still open the door."

Liu Yunxiang looked at the red building in Zhongnan in the night, all other houses were brightly lit, only it was deserted.

"If guests ask again, you tell them that the South Red House will definitely open again."

After sending the buddy away, Liu Yunxiang entered the room, and saw Zijin nestled in the chair, with his legs crossed, eating beef jerky, looking very contented.

"Have you changed your dressing today?" Liu Yunxiang walked over, opened Zijin's clothes, and looked at the wound on her abdomen. The fine cloth had been removed, and the wound had scabbed over.

"It's alright, Red Candle said that as long as I don't climb walls and jump high for the time being, I'll be fine if I don't open my wounds."

"Well, then you pay attention."

Zijin sat up straight, picked up a letter from the table next to him and gave it to Liu Yunxiang.

"Girl, it's from Xizhou."

"Xizhou?"

Liu Yunxiang hesitated for a moment, thought of who it was, and hurriedly took the letter. The sender was Lingyu, that is, Lu Changan.When she opened the letter, he first expressed his concern.

"Spring has passed and autumn has come, and it has been more than two years in a blink of an eye. Miss Wenliu came to Beijin. Although I know that the girl is smart, I still worry about it. I hope to cherish it."

Next, he wrote about the situation in Xizhou in the past two years. He was concerned about the country and the people in his words, but he was mostly helpless. He even mentioned the current riots. Natural disasters are not terrible, but people's hearts are terrible.

"I have used my father as an example. Although I can't go to the battlefield like him, I hope to help the country and benefit the people like him. But in the end, I didn't see my father clearly before, or he changed. When the people are in dire straits, But he only wants to fight for power, and even slaughters the powerless people for the sake of merit."

After reading this, Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but let out a long sigh.In the current situation of Dayong, there is serious factionalism in the imperial court, civil strife is everywhere, and the people are suffering unspeakably.

The situation in Dayong was indeed not optimistic, and she also counted as doing her part. The Zhenbei Army separated the three northern states, at least to protect the people of the three states from the riots and live a stable life.

The Lu Chang'an in the letter was suffering, confused and frustrated, perhaps no one could understand him, so he wrote this letter to her.

Liu Yunxiang thought about it and wrote a reply to Lu Changan.

"My son, if you really want to change all of this, then take concrete actions instead of empty talk and sorrow. You think it's impossible for a gnat to shake a tree, but don't forget, you are not a gnat, you are the son of King Suping, and you are Lu Changan , you can do more than you think. Just like me, I used to dare not think that I could travel thousands of miles to a completely unfamiliar place, but I will definitely be able to stick to my heels when I come. So the scary thing is not The predicament in front of you is that you don't have the courage to take this step."

After writing the letter, she put it in an envelope and handed it to Zijin, who asked her to send it to Xizhou.

Liu Yunxiang only said a few words, she would not have thought of the changes these few words would have on Lu Changan, so much so that at that time, she would regret brushing away the clouds in front of him for him.

Autumn is just around the corner, and many people have gone to Nanmo Studio to buy pens, inks, papers and inkstones in the past few days.

When Liu Yunxiang passed by, there were several students in the shop who were choosing what to bring before entering the examination room, and a thin student in a plain robe was arguing with Chen Chong.

"I haven't used this inkstone yet, so you must return it to me at the original price!"

Chen Chong looked helpless: "How many times does this young man want me to tell you that we can refund you the original price, but at that time it was sold to you for four taels of silver, so naturally we can only refund you four taels of silver."

"Nonsense, I've asked other companies, and the best Duan inkstone costs at least ten taels of silver. It's abominable for you to lie to people in such a large study!" the scholar shouted.

"The prices of Duan inkstones are different. Your inkstone is cheaper because of its simple style. Besides, our master saw that the woman who came to buy that day did not have enough money, so we gave her a tael cheaper and sold hers for four taels. You just said ten taels when you came up, but you asked that woman, what did she say?" Chen Chong explained patiently.

The scholar photographed the inkstone on the counter, "She told me it was ten taels!"

Chen Chong frowned, "Then invite that woman to confront us!"

The scholar's eyes dimmed, but when he thought of something, his expression became firm again, and he shouted: "Everyone, take a look, this Nanmozhai store is a big scammer. I bought his inkstone, but I don't think it's useful, so I'll return it to you. They, they actually want to lose more than half of my money! Is there anyone doing business like this?

When the students who were currently being selected heard this, they all looked at me and I looked at you. They all put down their things and left in a hurry.

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath and stepped forward, only then did he see the troublemaker's face, which was fair and clean, with only triangular eyes, single eyelids, and a mean and ungrateful face.At this moment, the eyeballs are rolling wildly, obviously guilty.

When passing by, Liu Yunxiang smelled a slightly bitter smell, which came from the scholar.

She didn't pay much attention, walked to Chen Chong's side, looked at the scholar again and said, "Is that woman selling rice cakes your wife?"

The scholar frowned, "She...is a servant of my family."

"Your servant?" Liu Yunxiang frowned, and continued: "Then invite her here. If she says it's ten taels, we'll immediately refund you ten taels, and we won't bother you."

"Retire immediately? Twelve taels?" The scholar's eyes lit up.

"Yes."

Seeing Liu Yunxiang nodding his head, the scholar hurried out.

"Boss, these two must have negotiated and cheated money together. This is the first time we have encountered this kind of thing. He looks like a scholar. Why is his character so bad?" Chen Chong said angrily.

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "A scholar's conduct is not necessarily good, and a person who doesn't study is not necessarily bad. If you encounter such disputes in the future, you must first invite people to speak later, so as not to damage the reputation of Nanmozhai."

"Yes, little one remembers."

Not long after, the scholar ran in wiping his sweat, followed by the woman, who was carrying a basket, and when she met Liu Yunxiang's gaze, she hurriedly lowered her head.

"What are you dawdling about, come in!" the scholar shouted at the woman.

The woman hesitated for a moment, but walked in anyway.

"Tell them quickly that the inkstone you bought that day was worth ten taels of silver, and ask them to refund me ten taels immediately." The scholar urged the woman.

The woman was still carrying the burden, with the rice cakes on one side and the vegetables grown on the other, her waist was so heavy that she couldn't straighten up, she was probably urged by the scholar to run all the way, at this moment her forehead was sweating and she was out of breath.

Liu Yunxiang walked over and poured a cup of tea, "Put down the pole first, come and have a sip of tea."

The woman still didn't dare to raise her head, she slowly put down the pole and shook her head, "I'm not thirsty, so I won't drink anymore."

Liu Yunxiang still stuffed the teacup into the woman's hand, "Don't worry, just take a sip of tea and take a few breaths."

"What tea do you want? It's delaying my business. Don't dawdle, tell them quickly!" The scholar pushed the woman anxiously.

The woman was holding a teacup in her hand, because of this, the water in the cup spilled on the ground, she bent over and wiped it dry with a handkerchief.

"I……"

"Say it!"
