270
Qi Tengmiao looked down from the attic, on the cold and windy stone road, the lonely and slender figure of Dougao drifted away through the crowd on the street, he could only say sorry from the bottom of his heart.

"My lord, what are you looking at?" Eighth Girl followed his line of sight and looked down, and asked with a smile, "Why didn't the little servant who was dressed as a woman beside you follow?"

Qi Tengmiao picked up the wine glass and smiled faintly, then asked, "Really? I thought Eighth Girl was more interested in me."

Cardamom walked a while, turned around and saw a man and a woman on the attic were toasting and chatting happily, Cardamom snorted, and rushed into the dim sum shop, "I'll take a portion of all kinds and send it to Baiweitang."

After paying the money, on the way home, I bought food all the way along the street, and it was all food. When I returned to Baiweitang, Cardamom opened the account book, and found the chapter that owed Qi Tengmiao 400 taels of silver, and neatly subtracted the full amount from the back. It’s 50 taels, huh, the silver is considered as an apology for me. If you don’t come back in one day, I’ll spend 50 taels. If you don’t come back in eight days, you have to owe me the silver. One day when I come back, I will take one and let it follow my last name.

After closing the ledger, the person who delivered snacks outside the door had already arrived.

Xiao Jiu is a puppy's nose, as long as there is something to eat, she can't escape her nose.

"Sister, sister, who sent this?" Xiao Jiu happily ran out, saw the table was full of snacks, raised her head and drooled and asked, "Sister, can these Xiao Jiu eat? "

Osmanthus came over and hugged Xiao Jiu up and said, "You little greedy cat, you still need to eat snacks after eating your elbows, be careful of diarrhea."

"Mother, if you don't eat it, it will go bad," Xiao Jiu said while drooling, Cardamom opened the dessert and handed over a piece, Xiao Jiu said in a sweet and soft voice, "Thank you sister."

Cardamom smiled and nodded Xiao Jiu's nose, took out a bracelet from her bosom, "Mother, this is for you."

Osmanthus fragrans looked at it and asked, "Isn't it expensive?"

"It doesn't matter if it's expensive or not, Qi Tengmiao bought it for you," after Dou Kou finished speaking, he lowered his head and made another note in the account book. This bracelet will also come from Qi Tengmiao's silver, hum.

"This kid is too polite. Why spend so much money? It's not convenient for mother to wear it for washing and cooking every day. You keep it first, and when he comes back, return it to him. Our family can't accept such a valuable thing." After Gui Hua finished speaking, she put Xiao Jiu aside, pulled Dou Kou and asked, "Are you meddling in the neighbors' affairs again?"

Osmanthus hopes that Cardamom can establish a good relationship with the neighbors, so that in the future, someone will help her when she talks about kissing.Recently, Qi Tengmiao was working as a signboard in the store. She was so busy that she didn't have time to take care of other people's affairs.

"No," Cardamom closed the ledger, Osmanthus saw it with sharp eyes, and pulled it over.

"Show mom what it is?" Osmanthus fragrans learned a lot of words, and she could understand even simple ones. When she opened it, it seemed to be an account book, "Who do you owe 400 taels of silver?"

Osmanthus fragrans thought she had read wrong, and eagerly wanted to ask her daughter clearly, and wanted to hear her daughter deny what she saw.

"I owe Qi Tengmiao, but I paid back 50 taels today, and I can pay back 50 taels tomorrow. If he doesn't show up within eight days, I won't owe him any more," Dou Kao took the ledger and put it in the drawer Keep it.

Osmanthus frowned, stared at Nizi for a long time, and finally shook her head and said, "It seems that I can only sell you to Qi Tengmiao."

Xiaojiu was eating happily, when she heard her mother say that she would sell her sister, she immediately put the dim sum in her hand on the table, wiped her mouth, and said with her little mouth curled up, "Mother, Xiaojiu is not greedy, don't sell my sister."

"Don't sell it, don't sell it, someone wants it if you sell it, do you think your sister is worth 400 taels of silver?" Osmanthus fragrans was just making a joke, and Xiao Jiu was not happy when she heard it.

Her sister is the best sister in the town, better than candied haws, of course it is worth 400 taels of silver, but how much is 400 taels of silver, can you buy a lot of snacks?She looked at the desserts piled up on the counter, and then at her sister, how many desserts could my sister buy?
Cardamom nodded Xiao Jiu who was thinking wildly with her head tilted, "Mother, take Xiao Jiu to the backyard quickly, and don't let her eat some snacks, you see, eating too many days makes me stupid."

Xiaojiu was counting how much dim sum her sister was worth with her fingers. When she heard her sister say that she was stupid, she quit. She proudly raised her smiling face and showed off to Osmanthus fragrans, "Mother, miss is smart. My sister treats my brother with care. Xiaojiu Yes, mother, Xiao Jiu also treated Xiao Shami and Brother Bai, and Brother Bai gave Xiao Jiu so much money to buy candied haws, "Obviously there is only one purse, Xiao Jiu uses two Stretching her arms to the limit is a metaphor for the money Bai Xinghe gave her.

Osmanthus fragrans looked at Cardamom, and she gave a sly smile, "Mother, I think I should go and see if there is any medicinal material that I'm short of. By the way, the county magistrate's wife has ordered some Zhuyan Pills with me. I have to make them quickly. Well, can you believe what Xiao Jiu said, she doesn't know anything except candied haws."

Xiao Jiu stomped her little feet and said to Osmanthus fragrans, "Mother, Xiao Jiu is not an idiot. Xiao Jiu knows candied haws, and Xiao Jiu also knows dim sum."

To prove that she is smart, Xiao Jiu pointed to the snacks on the table and said, "These are not candied haws."

"Okay, our Xiaojiu is the smartest, you eat obediently, mother will help you explain to your sister, Xiaojiu is not an idiot, okay?" Osmanthus coaxed Xiaojiu to eat snacks, and she followed her daughter into the room. warehouse full of herbs.

Cardamom's guilty eyes just stared at the medicinal materials, and the gaze of the mother behind her seemed to be able to burn through her clothes. She finally lost the battle and lowered her head to admit her mistake, "Mother, I know, whether a man or a woman can kiss each other, I promise, I will never kiss you in the future." Draw a clear line with Qi Tengmiao." Before she finished speaking, she felt that Mother looked at her not as a reproach, but as a secret joy?

Eh?Why chuckle?

"Nizi, mother just thinks that Qi Tengmiao is a good child, looks good, listens to you, and is good to our family. Why don't mother tell him about you. What's rare is that this child still has money."

Dougao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and looked at her longing expression of wishing she could be stuffed into a sedan chair and sent to Qi Tengmiao's house right now, and said with a smile, "Mother, didn't you just say you wouldn't sell me?"

"No, such a good boy, I have to discuss it with your father. If I don't make an engagement for you, what if someone better than you comes out one day and snatches him away? We should strike while the iron is hot."

Cardamom's expression froze, thinking of Qi Tengmiao and Eight Girls who were having a good time drinking and chatting in the attic of the brothel, Cardamom's heart sank. It seemed that, apart from the embarrassing status, Eight Girls really did not lose to her
She can only see a doctor, Xiao Jiu can only eat, Qi Tengmiao is not short of money or someone to eat for their family, no, this matter should be settled quickly, Dougao threw the order in his hand, and said to his mother Asked, "Mother, how many years do I have to wait before getting married?"
