Old Mrs. Su suddenly had a different mood today, and Zhao Qi didn't take it too seriously.

Everyone's temper will become weird when they get old.

What's more, Zhao Qi speculated that Old Lady Su must have hidden many secrets. How could a woman who claimed to be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting at the age of ten, and is well versed in tea art, and even martial arts skills, be an ordinary person?

Although the old woman didn't say it, Zhao Qiren could think of some clues through her words, but she was not too sure at the moment.

Perhaps because he saw that the fool had changed a lot after he woke up, he suddenly had the idea of ​​revitalizing his family, so he became strict with Xiaozhu.

But asking for a young girl who is only eleven years old like this also made Zhao Qi laugh and cry.

Xiaozhu cleans the inside and outside the cave every day. Although it is indeed dilapidated and looks extremely shabby to outsiders, the little girl is indeed very hardworking to Zhao Qi. She adheres to the daughter of all the poor families in this era. She never complains or complains without any complaints.

Old Mrs. Su taught Xiaozhu to make a cup of tea, and then left the cave tremblingly with a crutch.

Xiaozhu, however, had tears on her face, and looked at Zhao Qi choked and twitching on her thin shoulders after tasting it, "Young master, the tea I made...is it good... is it good to drink..."

"It's delicious, don't cry, the grandmother is old and has a weird temper..."

"It's not that the grandmother has a weird temper, but that I'm too lazy and stupid. I still can't cook after learning how to cook for so long!" Xiaozhu thrust and wiped her tears.

"Take it slow, I believe you can learn well. Go to work, I'll be quiet alone!" Zhao Qi said with a happy look.

"Yes, young master!" Xiao Zhu twitched his shoulders and turned around to wash clothes. Zhao Qi also smiled bitterly and shook his head to pick up the pen and ruler to continue to work on the design.

Since you are a time traveler, this harbor naturally needs to be unique.

In order to attract merchants and cargo owners, and to attract others to buy warehouses and shops to buy property, you must come up with some surprising things.

Another hour passed when I wrote and painted, and suddenly I heard a sound of horse hooves outside, and then a sound seemed to stop outside the cave.

Zhao Qi thought it was the accountant arranged by Manager Liu, so he threw down the quill pen and packed the manuscript papers neatly, then stretched out of the cave, and found it was a carriage. Chen Jizheng directed the coachman to move a box of things down.

"Hey, Brother Chen is back!" Zhao Qi greeted him happily, then looked around and asked in surprise, "Where has Brother Yao been? Why haven't he come back together?"

"Brother Yao said he had something to go to the capital and went back in a few days. The county school affairs have been completed. When I came back, I bought a set of tea sets in the palace and brought them back to Brother Zhao!" After saying hello with a smile, Chen Ji explained the matter clearly in a few words.

Zhao Qi didn't care too much about what Yao Ran was doing in Beijing. After Chen Ji paid the fare, the two moved the box into the cave and opened it under the pergola. It turned out that there was a set of tea sets, a small tea mill, a small mill trough, a small tea basket for sifting tea powder, and the others were teaspoons, tea cups and teapots. There were more than twenty kinds of things, and the table was filled with them.

"Hey, what are the drawings of Brother Zhao?" Looking at the neatly stacked manuscript papers full of graphics, Chen Ji looked through them and asked curiously.

"Haha, Brother Chen doesn't know anything. A few days ago, we planned to take down the wasteland in Dawan Village to repair the warehouse, but after I went to see it, I decided to buy all the land in the entire bay and build a brand new wharf. These are what I used when I was preparing to repair the wharf!" Zhao Qi explained with a smile.

"You bought the entire bay?" Chen Ji was surprised.

"Well, I've bought it, and I've got the land deed!"

"Brother Zhao is really fast. It's only been two days. Although I haven't been to that bay before, I think the place is quite small. I'm afraid that 20,000 guan is not enough to repair it!" Chen Ji sat down and said with his sleeves, wiping the sweat on his forehead.

"It's not that it's not enough, it's far from enough. However, I found two partners to invest together. I was thinking that there was still a lack of cultural people to help me with advice. Since Brother Chen came back alone, I would stay for a little longer and give me some advice. I will pay attention to drawing drawings, but writing copywriting is too difficult for me!"

"Copywriting, what kind of copywriting?" Chen Ji asked in confusion.

"There is no hurry to do this. Let's boil water and make a cup of tea first and drink it!" Zhao Qi went to boil water with a smile. Just now, Xiaozhu led Baoer in and laughed, followed by A Lian, and a basket of cucumbers, eggplant and other vegetables on her arm.

"Hello, Mr. Chen!" Xiaozhu quickly saluted.

"Baoer has met Mr. Chen!" Baoer also treated her blessedly as Xiaozhu.

"Okay, what a good girl!" Chen Ji smiled and touched Baoer's head, then his eyes fell on A Lian, and his smile instantly became a little frozen. This woman dressed simply and acted quietly. Although she was dressed as a village woman, she always made him feel heartbeat.

After staying in Zhao Qi's house for seven or eight days, he also met A Lian several times. This simple and weak woman blushed every time she saw them. Her shy appearance was like a feather that touched his heart, making him unknowingly feel the urge to marry him home.

Unfortunately, this woman is already married, and I heard that her husband is very unauthentic. Not only do he beat and scold him at all times, but he often doesn't go home.

He naturally heard a lot of talk about Zhao Qi and others, but he could only stare at other people's affairs, and he would never say anything about other people's wives. Moreover, as a scholar who is familiar with the Confucian and Mencius Sutra, he is even more incapable of stealing other people's wives. He is shameless.

"Mr. Chen!" A Lian was blushed by Chen Ji's straight look, and she lowered her head and did not dare to look directly at her.

"Sister A Lian is here just now. Brother Chen has just come back. Help cook some side dishes to fill his stomach!" Zhao Qi finally stood up with a bamboo tube with a fire, with a few charcoal ash on his face.

"Xiaoqi, chat with Mr. Chen, Xiaozhu and I will cook water and cook!" A Lian quickly turned around and put down the bamboo basket and took the bamboo tube in Zhao Qi's hand. Xiaozhu and Baoer also began to help get the firewood and rice.

"It just so happens that if you don't come back, I'm afraid this water will not be burned for a long time!" Zhao Qi and Chen Ji returned to the awning with relaxed body and sat down again. He spread out a stack of drawings and began to talk endlessly, but soon he found that Chen Ji was a little absent-minded and found that he had been looking at A Lian's busy back intentionally or unintentionally.

"Sister A Lian is actually a good woman, but unfortunately she married a bastard!" Zhao Qi shook his head.

"Alas, since ancient times, it is difficult for honest officials to make up for family affairs!" Chen Ji also shook his head and sighed with regret. After a moment of silence, he asked strangely, "Why did A Lian come to Brother Zhao to help with cooking?"

"This matter is a long story. Brother Chen has also heard about her family. It's okay if A'an beats and scolds him on weekdays. I heard that he hasn't been home for a long time and has not brought back the money he earned. Sister Alian has no rice at home. I looked pitiful and asked her to come and have dinner with us. This way I can relax so I won't cook!" Zhao Qi explained.
