Happy Little Scholar

For this woman, in addition to refreshing the mind, it is no longer important whether this "Ruyi Lu" has the effect she thought.

The master was in a good mood tonight, and he rarely said so many intimate words to her, which reminded her of ten years ago, when he had just passed the imperial examination, but because he was born in a poor family, he had no background and was just a small county magistrate in a remote place. Although life was hard at that time, the family was also happy.

After ten years of hard work in the official career, his official position was promoted again and again. He was no longer the small seventh-rank official before, but his official duties became busier. Before today, the master had not touched her for several months.

Tonight's joy was completely beyond her expectations. The effect of this Ruyi Lu, the scholar seemed to have not told her all, and some hidden effects made her most satisfied. She only thought that she would buy more Ruyi Lu tomorrow. In addition to some effects, it might also be of great help to the master's work.

Putting aside such thoughts for the time being, a blush crept up on her cheeks, and she took the initiative to greet him.

The spring scenery in the room could not be contained, and the maid standing at the door of the study blushed...

The next morning, when the woman walked out of the study, her face was unusually rosy, and the whole person looked much younger.

The maid in the courtyard secretly looked at the woman, thinking about the voice she heard at the door last night, and a blush appeared on her pretty face again.

"Xing'er, Tao'er, come here."

The woman waved her hand, and the two pretty maids in the courtyard immediately trotted over.

"What does the madam want to tell you?"

The beautiful woman said: "You two, go to the account office and get twenty taels of silver, and then go to the "Ruyifang" we went to yesterday to buy a batch of Ruyi Dew."

"Yes, madam, we will go now."

The little maid responded, and walked towards the account office without delay.

At the same time, in a deep courtyard on the other side of the city, the maid knocked on the door of the young lady's room. When she walked in, she saw her young lady sitting on the bed in a daze.

She asked with some doubt: "Young lady, what's wrong?"

The woman came to her senses and said: "Xiu'er, go to the street later and find a shop called Ruyifang and buy some "Ruyi Lu" back."

"Young lady, what is Ruyi Lu?" The young maid heard this name for the first time and asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"When you find that shop, you will know it naturally." The woman got up from the bed, pointed to the toiletries in the maid's hand, and ordered: "Put the things down, the shop is in the East Market, next to the cloth shop we went to a few days ago, you go and come back quickly."

"I know, young lady, I'll go right away."

Watching the young maid walk out of the door, the woman's eyes moved to a small porcelain bottle on the cabinet in front of the bed, and a hint of joy appeared on her pretty face.

Last night, she listened to the handsome young man and dripped some Ruyi Dew into her bath. She didn't know if she dripped too much. She couldn't fall asleep in bed, so she got up to read. Later, she didn't know when she fell asleep and forgot to draw the curtain. If it were in the past, she would be bitten by autumn mosquitoes at night and suffer some pain. Unexpectedly, when she woke up this morning, her body was normal and there was no sign of mosquito bites.

At this time, she naturally knew that the handsome young man did not lie to her yesterday. The first thing she did when she got up in the morning was to ask her personal maid to go to Ruyifang and buy more Ruyi Dew.

She couldn't use it herself, but it would be good to send it to the sisters in the boudoir.

Let's say that the little maid went out of the house and walked to the East Market in less than a quarter of an hour. She found the cloth shop she had been to with the young lady a few days ago. When she looked at the cloth shop, she finally saw the three words "Ruyifang" written on the plaque.

A hint of joy appeared on her pretty face. She was about to walk over, but she stopped after taking two steps because the door of the shop was closed.

Two girls of the same age as her stood at the door of the shop, looking sad and talking in a low voice.

"Why is it closed here today..."

"How can we explain to the lady when we go back?"

"There is no way. It is not our fault that the shop is closed. The lady will not blame us."

"Wait another half an hour. If the shop is still not open, we will go back."

The little maid listened to them talking and couldn't help but feel curious. Could it be that she was not the only one who came here early in the morning to buy that Ruyi Lu?

I have to see what this Ruyi Lu is later. The little maid thought about it in her heart, looked at the sky and the gradually bustling street market, and couldn't help muttering a few words.

"The shopkeeper of this shop is so lazy. The sun is shining on his buttocks, but he still doesn't open the shop for business. He must not make any money..."

"Girls, are you here to buy cloth?"

The fat shopkeeper of the cloth shop next door came out of the shop and saw the three girls standing outside the door, and asked eagerly.

"We don't buy cloth. Uncle, do you know when Ruyifang is open?" A girl looked at him and asked.

Seeing that the three people were not here to buy cloth, the fat shopkeeper obviously lost his patience and said lazily: "I don't know, maybe the business is not good, so it's closed..."

After that, he walked back to his shop.

If it weren't for the extremely delicate girl at the door, he probably wouldn't even have the interest to talk to her.

"Ah, closing the door?"

The three girls looked at each other with bitter faces.

Inside the cloth shop, the shopkeeper sat lazily on a master's chair, his fat face full of doubts.

"Strange, I don't know what the shop next door sells. There were not many businesses yesterday, why today..."

In Liuye Village, Lao Fang also had a bitter face, and his heart was even more painful, but he still looked at Li Yi and comforted him: "Son-in-law, you don't have to be sad. Didn't you say that failure is the mother of success? Ruyi Lu's business is not good, we can still sell that strong liquor!"

Lao Fang knew in his heart that for Ruyi Lu's business, the son-in-law built a workshop and rented a shop, and invested almost all his wealth. If he lost everything, he would definitely feel bad.

In fact, Li Yi didn't feel bad about the money. In the time-travel novels he had read before, there were also people who made toilet water. But why did other people's toilet water become popular all over the world as soon as it was sold, and they made a lot of money, but when it came to his, no one was interested?

Everyone had traveled through time, so why couldn't he? Was he really not as skilled as others?

This mysterious self-esteem was the reason why he was entangled in his heart at the moment.
