Chapter 258 Open a small shop

The spicy mixed dish that is loved by customers is indeed delicious, with aroma as the main component and spicy as the supplement. Xu Zhiyan wiped her sweat off several pieces of paper while eating, but she couldn't bear to stop using her chopsticks.

“This is really fragrant and delicious!”

"If it's delicious, eat more. Others have gained weight many times and are extremely rich, but you are still like that. I'm worried that you haven't eaten well."

Xu Yanqing felt sorry for his little sister, and wished he could collect all the delicacies of the Song Dynasty in front of her. Now that she was sitting in front of him, he even wanted to feed her herself.

Xu Zhiyan has become accustomed to the care of her family. She will pick up the food in her mouth without changing her expression and only speak when she is free.

"I eat a lot. Wen Jin has the same idea as you. He can feed me five meals a day. If I hadn't resolutely resisted, eight meals a day would have been possible."

"Brother, I have something to discuss with you."

She straightened up and wiped her mouth.

"Didn't I bring a girl back this time? Her name is Liu Yue."

"The palace cannot accept people casually, and she is not happy to look at the square sky in the palace. You think a small shop like this is not bad. Should I open a small shop for her and let her make a living from it?"

She had had the idea to open a small shop for Liu Yue a long time ago, but she was worried that Liu Yue wanted to stay in the place where she had no resources and could not protect people, so she didn't ask. Now that she is in Yangzhou Mansion, she Putting this idea back on the agenda.

Xu Yanqing has always supported Xu Zhiyan unconditionally.

"Okay, then what kind of store do you want someone to open?"

"It depends on what kind of store Liu Yue wants to open."

On the same day, Xu Zhiyan wrote a letter of her intention and sent it to Liu Yue.

Liu Yue gave the answer the next day.

--I think.

It’s not about giving “I do” according to other people’s wishes, but following the “I want” in your heart.

Xu Zhiyan saw her determination and was naturally unambiguous. She immediately asked her second brother Xu Yanhe to help find a suitable shop for her. However, when Xu Yanhe came to Liu Yue with the shop's information, she rejected her.

"Xu Zhiyan has helped me enough, I can't be greedy."

"I don't have any skills, but I still haven't forgotten the perfume my mother gave me. I want to make some sachets and mix some ointments myself, and start selling them at a street stall."

Selling in a shop does require a lot of atmosphere and class, but not every shop owner has those things. Many people started their business step by step from street stalls.

If they can do it, so can Liu Yue.

Xu Yanhe rolled up the store information.

"You have to think clearly. If you start in a shop, you will be much smoother in the future."

"I'm not too old to do anything, and I won't be overwhelmed by a period of troubles. Xu Ershao, help me tell Xu Zhiyan that I will start from scratch, and when I make something, I will take the initiative to follow her related."

This means that she really does not intend to rely on Xu Zhiyan to start a career.

Xu Yanhe admired her perseverance.

"Okay, I will tell you the truth."

Xu Zhiyan, who was told by Xu Yanhe, was surprised but felt a little bit "sure enough".

"I have known from the beginning that Liu Yue is a very self-reliant woman. It is normal for her to make such a decision, but she is helpless in Yangzhou Prefecture, and she is easily targeted by local gangsters when she runs a street stall. I It was decided that we couldn’t really stand by and watch.”

"Xiaoxi, please arrange for a few people to protect Liu Yue secretly and don't let her be bullied."

Xiaoxi responded quickly and served a bird's nest.

"Princess, it's time to take supplements."

Xu Zhiyan looked at the bowl of bird's nest, her disgust palpable. "I almost vomited after eating bird's nest. Let's change it to a salty one. Too much sweet one will make you nauseous."

"Then, can I change it to roasted sea cucumber with green onions for your next meal?"

"can."

Anyway, it was the next meal to change. There was no hope for this meal. She reluctantly picked up the bowl and took a sip. Her heroic look made Li Wenjin, who had just returned, laugh.

"Making you take supplements is like forcing you to take poison. Don't you like it that much?"

"It's not that I don't like it, it's just that after eating the same thing for a long time, I will have a psychological disgust. To be honest, when I see the bird's nest now, I feel like retching."

Li Wenjin stepped forward and hugged her.

"Thank you for your hard work, honey. Once your body stabilizes, you can stop taking supplements so frequently."

Xu Zhiyan was helpless, "You said it's one thing. In a few days, the queen and father will come back, which is another matter. The queen wrote to me, and she said in the letter that she would prepare a lot of supplements for me. My future is dark.”

[The days are passing by like sand between fingers, very fast. I thought it would be a long time before the Chinese New Year, but I didn’t expect that it would be just a few days later. Alas, Yangzhou Mansion will be lively again if it is not clean for a few days. 】

She fell into Li Wenjin's arms and sighed silently.

【It’s difficult. 】

Li Wenjin was amused by her, and her chest rose and fell a lot, and she was shaken up.

She stood up holding his chest and looked at him doubtfully, "I'm unhappy, but you're happy?"

This sentence almost confused Li Wenjin, and she quickly explained, "That's not the case, I just think you are so cute."

Xu Zhiyan could barely accept this explanation, hummed a few times and leaned back.

"Okay, I'll let you go."

……

A few days later.

The winter hunting brigade is back.

The rich prey symbolizes prosperity in the coming year, so from the city gate to the palace gate, there are cheers everywhere. Xu Zhiyan, who was still a little tired, was affected by the cheers and her spirits improved a lot.

"Are the prey hunted in winter used to worship ancestors?"

"Correct."

Li Wenjin straightened the man's cloak and said, "The large harvest will be used for royal ancestor worship, and the rest will be divided among the participating ministers as a good omen."

Xu Zhiyan stood on the palace wall, looking at the houses, the streets as prosperous as the meridians of leaves, and the people walking on the streets, and suddenly understood the results of her efforts.

[I have to do something more to make the people on this land live a better life. 】

Li Wenjin turned to look at her.

She was immersed in her own thoughts and did not notice his gaze. [After I became pregnant, I realized that there were so many things to pay attention to during pregnancy. Even though Wen Jin took such good care of me, things kept going wrong. Those women who no one took good care of How to do it? 】

[Maybe I can build a confinement center. 】

[The pregnancy period is too long, and no one wants to let pregnant women stay in the hotel for the entire pregnancy. But the confinement period is only one month, so it can definitely be accommodated. If I lower the cost by then, more people will definitely come. 】

What she thought was beautiful, but she was so busy afterwards that she didn't find time to prepare for these things. After the ancestor worship was over, she found time after the fifth day of the lunar month to mention this matter to Li Wenjin.

"Do you think this is the beginning?"

Xu Zhiyan stared at Li Wenjin with bright eyes.
