When he returned to the pharmacy again, Zhou Ji was already waiting there with a reply. As soon as he saw Chu Nianhe, he took out the letter and lowered his eyes and said, “Young Master Lin said, let the lady wait for a while, at most half a month, and he would let the Zhongyong Hou and his wife come to propose marriage.”
It seems that Lin Yuan has laid the foundation for the road ahead. Chu Nianhe nodded with satisfaction and said to Zhou Ji again, “You go downstairs to pour me a cup of tea, I want to see this letter.”
She said this as usual, but she was stunned by Zhou Ji’s listening. He looked at Chu Nianhe again and said reluctantly: “If you want to read the letter, I will not disturb you.”
His voice was muffled, and his face was full of unhappiness. Seeing that he seemed to be thinking about that matter, Chu Nianhe deliberately showed an unhappy expression and said, “Do whatever you are told to do. Now you are watching me enter the palace and cannot be in front of you all the time, so you don’t listen to my orders, right?”
“No…I…” Zhou Ji raised his head anxiously, and opened his mouth to express his feelings. But after hesitating for a while, he lowered his head, turned around and went out of the house.
Chu Nianhe was still thinking about the letter in her arms and had no time to think about Zhou Ji’s affairs. Seeing that he had gone out, he hurriedly took out the letters and opened them one by one to read them.
Sure enough, the letter from the Zhenjiang Prefecture Master she remembered was in it. However, not only that, even the villages and villages next to Zhenjiang wrote letters, as if they had made an appointment, and each presented 500 taels of silver notes. Although not much, the five thousand taels in Zhenjiang Prefecture are the number of eight or nine thousand taels, which is almost as high as the treasury of the entire Zhenjiang Prefecture.
Chu Nianhe read the letters all the way and couldn’t help but feel very shocking. According to what is said in the letter, not only Zhenjiang Prefecture, but also the surrounding villages and villages pay private tribute to Yan Lichen every year. This year, due to the disaster, it seemed that I had given me less. Everyone cried in the letters and begged for mercy, which looked pitiful. But I don’t know how these huge amounts of money were plundered from the people’s fat and cream, which is really shameful.
Holding the letter and thinking for a while, Chu Nianhe put away the letters again. Seeing that Zhou Ji had not come back yet, she opened the door a corner and looked downstairs.
This pharmacy was well managed by Zhou Ji, and the guys all performed their own duties and seemed in order. On the east is the doctor’s consultation, and on the south is the medicine. Now she looks down from a distance from the upstairs and feels that Zhou Ji is quite talented and not a person with empty heads.
Just as she was thinking, she saw a woman walking in wearing a silver-luo lake blue gown. The material of the clothes was good. When she saw that the woman was the daughter of a rich family. However, why did the daughter of a rich family come to the pharmacy alone to get medicine? Chu Nianhe was careful, closed the door gently, walked to the place covered with gauze curtains and looked at it.
ThatThe woman stood for a while and Zhou Ji, who was making tea downstairs, greeted her. Since it was during the day, the pharmacy business was good, Chu Nianhe could not hear clearly what they were saying. She just watched the woman say a few words, then took off the hat covered with her head, revealing her white and tender face.
Although the distance is very far, Chu Nianhe
It was still obvious that the woman was Shen Xiangyun!
After not seeing each other for a while, Shen Xiangyun’s lips and teeth were even white, and her every move showed a few charming postures, which were very seductive. Chu Nianhe looked at Shen Xiangyun’s current appearance quietly, and sighed in her heart – no wonder Yan Lichen would rather take her into the palace as a concubine. With Shen Xiangyun’s appearance, she was a good man to seduce men everywhere.
However, Chu Nianhe couldn’t help but feel a little strange. It is said that Shen Xiangyun was born by the eldest lady in the Shen Mansion. Although she was a legitimate daughter, she rarely had good clothes because her stepmother was unkind. The clothes she is wearing now can be seen by a discerning person who is wearing a high-quality material and are definitely of great value. With Shen Xiangyun’s status in the Shen family, how did she get such good materials to make clothes?
