Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 276 The sisters negotiate to buy back the ancestral house (3)
Li Jingjing nodded and said, "I'll go."

Deng Yun instructed: "If you go back, they will definitely bully you. You were waiting for me to pick you up at the mansion that day, and I will take you with me."

Li Jingjing smiled and thanked.

Princess Xuanjun Hu Jing and He Pan stayed behind and had lunch with the Li family.

After the meal, Hu Jing deliberately told He Shi some secret things that were not mentioned in He Huishu's letter and that Li Li had not found out.

He Pan and Li Jingjing took the twins to take a lunch break.

The twins were guarded by servants after they fell asleep.

He Pan followed Li Jingjing to her boudoir, and saw that the luxurious setting in the room was not worse than that of the princess in the palace, and much better than his own, so he didn't feel jealous.

The two girls hit it off right away, lying on the same bed, they couldn't sleep, so they chatted.

"I'm 13 years old. Where's my sister?"

"I'm 11 years old."

"I'm two years older than you, but I'm as tall as you. If you don't say you're from the south, people will think you're from the north." He Pan thought that Li Jingjing was so good. Bing had made an engagement with Di Yujie's sister, and Di Yujie should have made an appointment with Li Jingjing.

Qu's is the tallest girl in Tanzhou, and Li Laoshi and Li Qubing are not short.

Needless to say about the He family, the late parents were both from the north, and she was considered tall among northern women.

Li Jingjing has white skin, is tall and has a good figure, with exquisite features and temperament, so she is very beautiful.

"Everyone has a long heart, so I will grow up. When you talk to me in the future, you must speak directly, otherwise I will not understand."

He Pan held Li Jingjing's catkin and said, "I also like people who speak straightforwardly."

Li Jingjing took the opportunity to joke again: "It seems that a doctor in Chang'an Academy is the kind of person you mentioned."

He Pan blushed shyly, and said, "His words are no longer straightforward, but venomous."

Li Jingjing smiled and asked: "So you like to be straightforward and not to speak harshly? Then I will ask my second brother to bring a message to that doctor."

He Pan said with a mosquito voice: "It's not that I don't like it, I just hope that he can be more tactful and not always be so sharp and offend people everywhere."

Li Jingjing said in He Pan's ear: "Your Majesty appreciates Dr. Di because he is upright and outspoken."

He Pan nodded thoughtfully and said, "That's true."

Li Jingjing asked: "There will be a poetry meeting in three days, will you go?"

He Pan's eyes dimmed, he closed his eyes, and said softly: "After my father passed away, I only went there once, and I was ridiculed by them. My aunts and cousins ​​didn't help me, and just watched with cold eyes."

Li Jingjing was surprised: "They are like this?"

"I didn't expect them to be like this." He Pan thought about it and said, "This time you go, I will go with you."

Li Jingjing was grateful, put her arms around He Pan's shoulders, and said: "You are from the royal family, not from the military officer school like me, and those young ladies will let us compete in poetry."

He Pan opened his eyes, and said calmly, "Then I admit defeat."

Li Jingjing stretched out her hand to caress He Pan's smooth cheek, raised her eyebrows and said, "If anyone asks us to compare poems, we will compare poems with him."

He Pan smiled and said, "You are really smart."

In the afternoon, Hu Jing left with He Pan, and Qin Yue and He Huishu's family came.

The He family and He Huishu hadn't seen each other for several months, as if they hadn't seen each other for several years, and wept with joy because they finally got rich together and returned to Chang'an.

The five babies from the two families got together, first hugged each other, and then let Qin Yue run around the yard with his arms on his back, the laughter almost spread outside the house.

Qu Shi liked children very much, so he stood aside and watched.

Li Jingjing pointed at He Jiye and Li Yunfei, and said loudly: "Let's give you a day off first, and you have to resume reading and practicing big characters from tomorrow!"

He Huishu and Mrs. He went to the side hall to talk.Li Jingjing followed.

He Huishu suddenly said quietly: "The house of our He family has now become the other courtyard of Mr. Zhang."

Mrs. He had just heard about Hu Jing, and he had already made up his mind, and said, "I heard that Mr. Zhang's descendants owe gambling debts, and they are going to sell the other courtyard quietly. I'm going to find someone to buy the other courtyard first." Come down, wait a few years before passing under Saburo's name."

He Huishu was overjoyed, and frowned again: "The cash I can take out now is only 3000 taels of silver."

He Shi hurriedly said: "I have the money. You don't need to worry about it. You and your brother-in-law live alone, and you will marry my four nephews in the future. You should save some money."

A few years ago, the Li family had nearly 200 million taels of cash, and through her housekeeper to buy shops, fields, and real estate, the cash almost doubled after all expenses were excluded.

He Huishu deliberately said in detail: "Minye has already had a new house for his wife, several hundred acres of fertile land in Tanzhou, two shops in Chang'an, and some jewelry. If he can pass the Jinshi examination this year and become an official , there is also a follow-up salary. He doesn’t need us to care about it.”

Li Jingjing thought to herself: Cousin Little Black Bear, the third generation official, also has a lot of property.

He Shi just listened and didn't answer.

He Huishu continued in a low voice: "I didn't tell you anything in the letter. This time, as soon as I arrived in Chang'an, I took the money my grandma gave me to set up three shops. They have just opened for a few months, and there are 400 taels a month. money gain."

It was because she had just bought a shop and only had 3000 taels of silver left in her hand.

Knowing that the Ming family had given Qin Yue and his wife nearly 5 taels of silver when he was dying, He estimated it in his heart, and agreed: "My sister is doing the right thing. Otherwise, the family will have no money to eat, and there will be no money in a few years."

Li Jingjing asked curiously: "What kind of business does Auntie's shop sell?"

He Huishu replied: "Beauty powder, ready-made clothes, shoes. Your aunt and I are too much to earn. 5000 taels a year is enough for the family's expenses and there is a small balance."

Li Jingjing smiled and said: "Auntie, at least you have the dress, shoes, and makeup you wear, and it must be the best."

"Look at my little Jing Niang is really smart. That's what I thought about when I opened the shop." He Huishu with picturesque eyebrows and a smile like a flower, pulled Li Jingjingxiang over her forehead and said, "From now on, I will take care of all your makeup, ready-to-wear, and shoes. .”

In the magnificent main courtyard hall of Deng Guogong's mansion, the thin Deng Jing just came back from the palace in a court robe. He was drinking tea and listening to his beloved wife, Mrs. Feng, describing the process of going to Li's mansion vividly.

He was supposed to go back to the mansion after the court was over, but he was left by He Dong together with Shangshu Shangshengshan and Tian Jin to discuss the military affairs of the Northland, and he had lunch in the palace, and he didn't come back until now.

"I didn't see Mr.'s eldest son and second grandson today, but the rest of the people have seen it."
