Fruity Manhua Ting

Chapter 46
It turns out that these two girls are none other than the neighbors of Caiwei's hometown - sisters Chunni and Yanhong.

The two girls also saw Caiwei, and Chunni was still calm, just grinning.

Yanhong threw away the pipa in her hand, ran up and hugged Caiwei and cried: "Sister Caiwei, I can see you."

Mu Caiwei saw that the clothes they were wearing were simple and patched at the elbows. Although they were not unkempt, they were far worse than when they were in their hometown.

She couldn't help asking in doubt: "Is something wrong at home? Why did you come to Beijing?" And she even came to the teahouse to sing.

As soon as Yanhong heard her ask this, the tears welling up in her eyes couldn't help but fall down.

Chunni sat there with her head bowed and said nothing.

Knowing that they must have something to hide, it is not easy to ask them in this small restaurant.Seeing that the two of them looked dusty, he hurriedly asked the waiter to serve two more bowls of noodles.

The two sisters didn't know how long they hadn't eaten, and they started gobbling when they saw that side.

Caiwei asked them in a low voice, "Where do you live now?"

Before Chunni could speak, Yanhong grabbed Caiwei's hand and cried, "We've been staying at the Town God's Temple outside the city these days, and when the city gate opens in the morning, we'll come in to ask for a living..."

Before she could finish speaking, Caiwei made a decisive decision, "How can you two girls settle in that place? Come back with me today, no matter you are poor or rich, there is always something to eat."

Chunni and Yanhong were naturally eager, and were about to kneel and kowtow, but they were held back by Caiwei, "You don't treat me as a sister, what kind of relationship did we have when we were in our hometown?"

After eating, Caiwei spent a few more money to buy a set of clothes for each of them before taking them back to Mu's residence.

Those people at the door are all under Qian's order, and all of them have a pair of powerful eyes. Seeing the girl from the second bedroom went out, and two more girls came back, they couldn't help but look up and down, wishing to stare at sister Chuni. Come.

Caiwei didn't want to pay attention to them either. Sooner or later, she was going to move out of here, and she wouldn't live by their faces.

She has this confidence that she can earn money to buy a house and several shops in Beijing.

After seeing Jia Shi with Chunni and Yanhong, she asked the girl to take the two of them down to wash up.

Jia grabbed Caiwei and complained: "There are already so many girls in the family, which is enough. Why do you still bring people to the house? Didn't you see the black face of your aunt? There are so many girls. We can't afford to eat plain rice for two of us."

"Mother, I'm in trouble, so I can't just watch and let it go, can I?" Caiwei persuaded Jia Shi helplessly, "Besides, their sisters have some skills, so I let them be my companions when I go out, isn't it? What about the convenience of the two?"

After hearing this, Jia was speechless. Although she was distressed and had two more mouths to eat, she was an old neighbor after all, so she couldn't just ignore it.

That night, Chunni and Yanhong told Caiwei and Jia Shi what happened at home. It turned out that their sisters' father was a bodyguard for others, but was robbed by bandits on the way.

The employer asked for compensation, how could their father get so much money.

In a fit of anger, the employer sued the yamen and sent their father to prison.

The family was rich and powerful, and they arranged jailers behind their backs to beat their father well. After he came out, he became ill and died.

The two sisters had nowhere to go, so they sang and begged all the way to Beijing.

When they met Caiwei, they felt more at ease.

The eye circles of Mu Caiwei and Jia's were red, and they each sighed. They didn't expect the fate of these two sisters to be so miserable.

But this is also the fate between them.

In her previous life, she remembered that after she came to Beijing, the father of the two sisters had an accident and disappeared, but the two sisters were nowhere to be seen.

She didn't expect to meet them again in this life, Mu Caiwei just felt a burst of joy in her heart, these two sisters have some kung fu, they can be companions and protect her when they go out, she will still need them in the future.

Seeing Chunni and Yanhong crying into tears, she also shed tears: "Since you have come to my place, you don't have to worry about it. If you stay for a long time, we can still be a companion."

The two sisters were grateful and thanked her before going down to rest.

In the evening, a soybean oil lamp was lit in the Caiwei house, and the fresh orange peels were washed and dried before making tea.

But it is said that King Xi also bought Caiwei's orange peel tea out of kindness at that time. After brewing it and drinking it, he felt refreshed and his appetite improved a lot.

So I brought some into the palace and dedicated them to the current emperor.

Because of the new funeral of the crown prince, the emperor was in a restless state of mind, and the food and tea were not pleasant for many days.

The imperial doctors tried their best and failed to make him recover. He was about to fall ill, and he went to the doctor in a hurry. He always served the eunuch cautiously - Liang Dabao, who was soaked according to King Xi's order. Orange peel tea is here, feed it to the emperor.

That night, he was much more energetic. He drank a large bowl of Bijing porridge and ate a few small dishes.

The empress dowager was so happy that she recited the Buddha's name and asked people to buy a lot of them for preparation.

Such an easy-to-use tea, all the concubines and masters want some.

King Xi agreed to leave the palace, and asked the girl to go to the street to buy it.

It's just that it was accidental that day, and I didn't ask the girl where she lived or who her last name was. Now looking for someone on the street is no different from finding a needle in a haystack.

The wind in the palace quickly spread, and some dignitaries began to enjoy it, and the teahouses outside began to look for the girl who sold orange peel tea.

Mu Caiwei didn't know that earth-shaking changes had taken place outside, she just stayed at home and was worried that she wouldn't be able to sell it.

When Qian heard from the servants in the mansion that Mu Caiwei had gone out again with the girl in the past few days, she was so angry that she couldn't help but thumped the couch.

He cursed at the servants: "Are all of them dead? She just ran out like a girl in public, what good reputation does our girl have? From today on, she is not allowed to step out of the second door!"

When Mu Caiwei finished dozens of cans of orange peel tea and wanted to take the girl out to sell, she was stopped by servants in the mansion.

Those servants who turned their noses and raised their eyes didn't take her seriously at all.

Helpless, she could only entrust Chunni and Yanhong sisters: "You two have some skills, so you took these things and went over the wall to see if you can sell them for some money."

Chunni and Yanhong also knew that Caiwei's life here was unsatisfactory, depending on the faces of the uncle's family, knowing that they would be useful if they didn't eat for nothing, they naturally agreed happily.

A few people put those things in bags without telling Jia Shi, and let the two sisters carry them back over the wall and go out.

Before leaving, Caiwei told the two of them that if it is easy to sell, the price will be higher, and if it is not easy to sell, it can be lowered.

The two agreed and climbed over the wall and went out.

There are so many teahouses in Beijing, and they don't know which one they can buy.Anyway, let's go down one by one and ask, you can't let Caiwei down!

Unexpectedly, when the two sisters came to the first teahouse, as soon as they opened their pockets, the shopkeeper of the house couldn't wait to ask for all of them, and asked them if they had any?
The two sisters didn't expect such a good sale, so they raised the price according to what Caiwei said.

In the end, it was sold for one tael of silver per pot!
The two sisters climbed over the wall with more than 100 taels of silver and returned to the Mu Mansion. When they showed the silver to Caiwei, Caiwei was also shocked.

So easy to sell and so sought after!

It seems that the day when she moves out is just around the corner.
