The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 225 Gift of Silver
Pomegranate was in the mule cart. When she heard Zhou Xudou's words outside the cart, she couldn't help but said, "It's getting dark. Does Mr. Zhou have a place to stay in the city?"

Zhou Xudou hurriedly raised his hands to the car and said, "There are some." He was not making an excuse. There was a guildhouse in Rongjiang County in Fucheng, which was specially used for accommodation for students rushing to take the exam. He had stayed there before when he came to Fucheng to take the prefectural examination and the college examination. He knew that road.

Pomegranate heard that he was not forcing himself, so he said no more.

When Zhou Xudou saw no response from inside, he bowed and said, "Thank you very much, miss. I'll take my leave."

"Sir, wait a minute." The car curtain was opened, Fu Dong got out of the car, presented a money bag, and said: "My girl said that we are both from Daming Prefecture, and we met by chance when we were away from home. Of course I will help those who can. I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Zhou not to refuse. I hope Mr. Zhou can reach the city smoothly and win the title. "

Zhou Xudou was obviously frightened, and his face suddenly turned red. He cupped his hands and said bluntly: "Girl, I accept your feelings from the bottom of my heart. I really deserve it. Please take it back quickly."

After that, he gritted his teeth and added, "I have been engaged in marriage since I was a child. I promised my fiancée that I would go back and marry her after passing the provincial examination!"

In the car, Pomegranate burst out laughing. If this matter had been handled by a rich man, or if the other person was older, such a misunderstanding would never have occurred. What kind of scholar goes to take the exam, and the rich lady pays for his travel expenses? I hope that the scholar will come back from high school and reciprocate his love——

She really didn't think that way before. She just thought that this person could be a scholar. He was still so young. It wouldn't be a problem if he couldn't be a scholar. It would be even better if he could be a Jinshi. She would help him today and wait until he reaches high school in the future. , I will definitely remember this kindness. If Brother Zhang takes this path, it will be a good thing to have a senior who can help him.

Even if Brother Zhang doesn't take the imperial examination route, it will still be a good relationship, just in case he needs help from others in the future.

Those wealthy people who are willing to support poor students may not necessarily have this idea.

And she doesn’t give too much, so she won’t overwhelm the other person.

"Young Master Zhou has misunderstood. The little girl didn't mean this. Young Master Zhou has a fiancée, and the little girl has already fallen in love with someone. I just hope to have a good relationship with you. I also hope that Young Master Zhou can go to the exam with peace of mind and get into high school in one fell swoop." , Mr. Zhou, please accept it.”

"Young Master Zhou refuses to accept it. Could it be that the suggestion that he has a fiancée is just an excuse?"

Zhou Xudou was excited and breathed a sigh of relief. He was really in a relationship, and the other party didn't mean it this way. That's fine, that's fine.

It turns out that this Miss Li just wants to have a good relationship. Zhou Xudou is not a fool. He understands this. In Rongjiang County, there are not many wealthy men who are willing to sponsor his imperial examination, but he mostly refuses because Those people's motives are not pure. He wants to become a high school scholar and be an upright and good official. He cannot get involved in these good intentions, otherwise he will not be able to repay them in the future and will ruin his own future.

Therefore, he was copying books and studying at the same time, saving money on food and expenses. The whole family, including his fiancée's family, supported him with tight belts. It was difficult to explain to outsiders. If he could not go to high school, he would not only let himself down——

This time when he went to take the exam, he brought five taels of silver that two families had collected with him. Although he could stay in a guild hall when he arrived in Fucheng, he still had to be responsible for his own food and just in case, so he didn't dare to spend it casually. The only option is to walk.

He has finished eating the dry food, and there is still a long way to Zhoucheng. If he can take a boat, he can get to Zhoucheng very quickly, and the time saved can be used to study hard——

Zhou Xudou was extremely troubled, but in fact it only happened in a moment, and he couldn't let people hold up the money bag to delay him.

Gritting his teeth, he reached out and took the money bag. He had already received food and rides from others. He would remember Miss Li's kindness.

"Thank you to Miss Li for your generosity. No matter whether I can go to high school or not in the future, Miss Li's kindness today will be engraved in my heart and will never be forgotten."

Shiliu didn't say much, just said: "I hope Mr. Zhou has a smooth journey and achieves his wish."

Fu Dong had already returned to the mule cart. As soon as Shiliu finished speaking, Jiang Bing waved his whip and drove the mule cart.

Zhou Xudou stepped aside and watched the mule cart go away, then turned around and headed in the other direction. In the mule carriage, Fu Dong listened to the bustle of people outside the carriage. Curiously, he lifted a corner of the carriage curtain to take a look, then immediately lowered it.

Pomegranate: "You can watch it if you want."

Fu Dong pursed his lips, revealing a pair of tiger teeth, "Thank you, miss."

Then she lifted up the corner curtain and looked out. Although she could only see a small corner, it was enough to excite her. This was Fucheng, it was so bustling and lively.

The night was completely covered, and the group had arrived at Huilong Street.

Wu Yi and his assistants Ma Huai and Tian Xin waited at the back door for the mule cart to enter the alley. They quickly stepped forward to salute, "Girl!"

Pomegranate nodded, got off the mule cart and went inside. Jiang Bing smoothly greeted everyone to unload the goods and move them inside. Then the mule cart was unloaded, and the mules were tied into the livestock shed for watering and feeding.

Shiliu took Wu Yi and others to the front shop to look around.

The lobby on the first floor has the same decoration and decoration as the shops outside Luoshui City. Going up the stairs, there is a play room above.

After reading them one by one, Pomegranate was generous in praising them.

Wu Yi's heart was filled with excitement, and he breathed a sigh of relief. With the girl's promotion, he could leave Zhuangzi and become the shopkeeper, but it was something he never dared to dream about. In the past month, he had done everything himself and took it seriously. Don't dare to be careless. Now that you have the girl's approval, all the hard work will be nothing.

Those who escorted the car that night all went to a rented house not far from the back alley to squeeze in. As for Pomegranate, there was really no place to squeeze in, so she took Fudong to stay in the inn next door.

On the second day, Fucheng Children’s Playhouse officially opened.

It took a month to decorate. This shop is not out of the way. It's obvious that many people have already paid attention to it. Seeing that it was finally opened today, they all gathered around to watch, including the nearby merchants.

Not long after, a man dressed as a steward in a round-neck silk robe came to congratulate him with a gift. Wu Yi smiled and welcomed him in.

The onlookers who had listened for a few times were shocked, what? Is that the manager of the Liu family?
What is the origin of this shop? On the grand opening, a manager from the Liu family came to congratulate him. Is he a relative of the Liu family?

Everyone in Fucheng knows about Liu Bancheng. He is an incredible family. It’s no wonder that the Liu family is behind this shop.

Children's Playhouse? Someone saw the sign and thought of something, "Is this the same as the Children's Playhouse in Luoshui City? I heard from a relative of mine before that there was a Children's Playhouse in Luoshui City, saying that it specialized in selling children's toys. ”

"Yes, that's right. For my son's birthday not long ago, my sister who was married in Luoshui City gave my son a toy called a rocking horse. My son really liked it!"

"Last time I went to Zhoucheng, I also saw the Children's Playhouse in Zhoucheng, but that one had the Liu family's cloth banners hanging outside, but this one didn't."

"Anyway, it must be related to the Liu family. Come on, let's go in and see what kind of toy it is!"

"Let's go!"

The crowd of onlookers went into the shop one after another, and Wu Yi and Tian Xin quickly greeted them.
