Powerful Minister Buddha-like Sweet Wife - Chapter 81

In the morning of the second day, Liu Tangxi woke up early, opened his eyes and looked outside. It felt like a little white. He quickly put on a dress, got out of bed, and walked outside the door.

When I opened the door, the snow outside was really big, and the whole world seemed to be covered with a white quilt.

Liu Tangxi was immediately overjoyed, and he pulled his shoes back and called Wei Hanzhou to come and take a look.

Wei Hanzhou put on a dress, stood behind her, and circled her in his arms.

The two stood there for a while, and it was estimated that it was almost time for Wei Hanzhou to turn up. Liu Tangxi said, “You go dress and wash first, and I will cook for you.”

Wei Hanzhou bowed his head and kissed her on the forehead, and said, “Okay.”

There was still a lot of bone soup left for the hot pot yesterday. It’s cold now, and it’s not bad.

Liu Tangxi used bone broth to cook Wei Hanzhou noodles, and threw some vegetables and meatballs that were cut up last night but not used up.

She removed the meat from the bones, put some seasonings, and added millet peppers, and mixed it.

Soon, a pot of delicious and nutritious bone noodle soup was ready.

Wei Hanzhou drank two bowls of soup, and ate a large bowl of noodles and two plates of meat.

Seeing that Wei Hanzhou ate a lot, Liu Tangxi was very happy and satisfied.

After sending Wei Hanzhou away, Liu Tangxi went back to the house and lay down for a while.

When it was bright, she got up and sat on the couch to embroider flowers for a while.

At that time, Liu Tangxi went out.

Before I reached the door of the dry goods store, I saw a long line at the door, about a dozen people were touched.

Getting closer, Liu Tangxi can finally see clearly that these people are here to buy candied haws.

When Liu Tangxi appeared, the shopkeeper immediately greeted him with a smile.

“lady.”

“Well, how is business today?” Liu Tangxi asked.

The shopkeeper glanced at the people in the line, then looked at the shop, and said with a smile: “Excellent. Our candied haws are selling very well, and many people are coming here. Moreover, many people come to the house while they are waiting. I bought other dried fruits here.”

Liu Tangxi nodded, it seemed that there was no change in her expression, she was still very calm.

Although the shopkeeper has been working in the shop for more than ten years, he was still very excited after seeing yesterday’s earnings.

Seeing the calm appearance of his owner, the shopkeeper thought, perhaps the owner didn’t know what happened to yesterday’s income.

“Please, let me tell you about yesterday’s situation.”

Liu Tangxi nodded in kindness: “Okay.”

After entering, the shopkeeper showed Liu Tangxi the account book.

“The dried fruit in our shop was 20% higher than usual yesterday. The candied haws are even more powerful. They sold more than 500 bunches and made more than 20 taels of silver.”

After listening, Liu Tangxi nodded.

She flipped through the account books, and most of the candied haws sold yesterday were for ten cents, but the six cents were sold less.

People in the capital are indeed rich. The more expensive and rarer they are, the more people eat.

The calmer Liu Tangxi is, the more excited the shopkeeper will be. He continued: “There are more people here today. One hour after opening the store, nearly a hundred strings have been sold. I think this whole day will be more than yesterday. On this street, no one makes better food than us, and no one sells better than us.”

Liu Tangxi was still calm.

Wei Laosan sells them in the town, and now he can sell 200 skewers a day, but it is not surprising that he can sell 500 skewers a day in the busiest snack street in Beijing.

Seeing that Liu Tangxi has always been like this, the shopkeeper has to sigh with emotion that the girls from Huai’enhou’s Mansion can really make money.

In the past, the second girl was called Tao Zhugong, a female middle school, and opened a restaurant, but in just one year, it became the largest and most profitable restaurant in Beijing. Those fresh sales methods and novel food types have attracted many customers.

But their eldest girl went to Zhuangzi to plant trees and planted the most delicious apples all at once, which was in short supply every day.

Nowadays, the big girl makes candied haws, and makes them casually. They are the most delicious and best-selling.

Not to mention the guests, he wants to eat again after he eats.

I don’t know how the Feng Shui of Huai’enhou’s Mansion is so good, and the girls raised are so good.

Seeing that Liu Tangxi calmed down, the shopkeeper felt that he was too uncomfortable with excitement, so he slowed down and talked about his plan.

“Our sales of candied haws are good, I think, find another master who can make candied haws, and put a counter inside, and the two masters will make them together.”

Liu Tangxi thought about the layout outside, closed the account book, and said, “Okay, you can figure it out.”

After a few more words, Liu Tangxi went out.

She hasn’t been to Huai’enhou’s Mansion for a while, and she doesn’t know if Yin’s disease will recur as it is cold today. She has to take a look.

She personally made a few skewers, and planned to bring them to the Yin family when they went to Huai’enhou’s Mansion in a while.

While he was doing it, he saw a familiar person walking outside the door.

“I have seen my sister.” Liu Yunan saluted.

“My sister is polite.” Liu Tangxi continued to make the candied haws in her hands.

Liu Yunan is here today to stroll around casually. She knew that this shop was Yin’s dowry, and when she saw so many people lined up at the door, she came over and took a look curiously.

“Miss, do you make candied haws yourself?” Qinghe asked with a look of surprise.

This eldest lady has always bullied her before, thinking about her former domineering appearance, and now, it looks like two people.

She really didn’t expect that a person who was so proud before would really cook and eat by himself.

She had indeed inquired about this eldest lady before, and she thought she just moved her lips and asked her to do it.

Liu Tangxi said, “Yes, it’s quite simple, you will learn it as soon as you learn.”

While speaking, Liu Tangxi’s subordinates kept moving.

Seeing Liu Tangxi’s movements, Qinghe couldn’t help swallowing.

Liu Yunan stared at Liu Tangxi for a long time. Seeing that she was serious, she turned her head to look at the person outside eating candied haws.

“It’s delicious,” said a girl. “This is the best candied haws I have ever tasted.”

The other said: “Yes, I bought a bunch of sticky rice flavored yesterday, I want to try the red bean paste today.”

“This shop is good at everything, but it’s too slow.”

“Isn’t it? I’ve waited too long.”

…

Listening to the words outside, Liu Yunan became very curious about Liu Tangxi. I heard that the apples and peaches she grows are delicious. However, she has no interest in eating, and she has never eaten any of them. The reason why I opened a restaurant before was to make money and do things with money.

Nowadays, I have seen people say that the candied haws are delicious, and there are so many people in line outside, it doesn’t look like a childcare.

“I wonder if my sister is lucky enough to get a bunch of candied haws from my sister?” Liu Yunan asked with a smile, turning his head.

After Liu Tangxi finished making the last kind of candied haws, he picked up the paper bag and packed it, turned to look at Liu Yunan, and said, “Yes, let’s go in line, ten cents for a bunch of money, you are not cheated.”

With that, she pointed outside.

Although Liu Tangxi intends to get along with Liu Yunan in peace, just not renewing the old account does not mean that she will not renew the account.

At the beginning, Huai Enhou wanted his third daughter to marry Wei Hanzhou, wasn’t it what Liu Yunan suggested.

Moreover, even though the Yin clan and the original owner did not do the right thing, Liu Yunan is not a good thing.

She doesn’t mess with Liu Yunan, but it doesn’t mean that she will treat her as a sister or friend.

Especially, after Wei Hanzhou hinted at her last night, she felt that she was less worried and afraid when facing Liu Yunan.

A little more emboldened.

Anyway, she doesn’t bully the heroine, the heroine halo will never abuse her.

Qinghe was annoyed by Liu Tangxi’s words, but she resisted it.

Liu Tangxi smiled at Liu Yunan, walked outside with the paper bag, and when he passed the shopkeeper, he said: “Let’s look good, no one is allowed to jump in the queue! No matter who that person is.”

The shopkeeper glanced at Liu Yunan, and quickly nodded in response.

He had long heard that the eldest girl in the Hou Mansion had a bad relationship with the second girl, but he didn’t expect it to be really bad.

“Second girl, please outside.” The shopkeeper said respectfully.

Qinghe stamped his feet with anger.

Liu Yunan smiled, and said: “I am more curious about the taste of the candied haws my sister bought, Qinghe, go in line.”

“Aunt…” Qing He said dissatisfied, but after receiving Liu Yunan’s eyes, he closed his mouth again, “Yes.”

Before long, Liu Yunan ate candied haws.

Eating the candied haws in his mouth, Liu Yunan nodded in satisfaction and praised: “It tastes good, no wonder such a person came to buy it. You can try it soon.”

Qinghe also got a bunch, and was about to throw it away. Hearing this, he reluctantly took a bite.

After eating, I have to say that it is really delicious.

“From now on, people will buy a bunch of them every day. This is red bean paste, which is a bit sweet. I will replace it with green bean paste tomorrow.”

“Yes, girl.”

Liu Tangxi brought a bunch of each flavor to the Yin clan, and the Yin clan couldn’t eat so much at a time, so he shared it with Mother Shao. She originally wanted to give Liu Tangxi, but Liu Tangxi refused.

“No, no, I’ve been eating for a month, and I’m tired of eating.”

Looking at the rejection on Liu Tangxi’s face, Yin laughed and said, “Okay, I won’t give it to you.”

After eating the candied haws, Liu Tangxi remembered what Wei Lao San and the others were about to come, and said to the Yin family.

In any case, Wei Laosan and others are Wei Hanzhou’s relatives, and both are considered in-laws. If the Yin family learns from the neighbors that their relatives are coming to the capital, it will not look good on the face.

“Is here to visit you, or stay for a long time?” Yin asked.

Liu Tangxi said, “Long stay, I won’t go back. The family is preparing to sell the land, pigs and chickens raised in the home, and come to Beijing in the spring.”

Hearing this, Yin frowned slightly.

It’s not that she has never seen something like this in Beijing for so many years.

Many Xinke Jinshi have a family that is not very wealthy, and after the Xinke Jinshi married a noble daughter, there will always be a lot of contradictions and jokes.

Wei Hanzhou’s family is not rich, and there are many people.

If the whole family came to the capital, wouldn’t it be necessary to live with your daughter and son-in-law?

The son-in-law’s house was too small, wouldn’t it be even more crowded if there were ten or eight people in it.

Too wronged daughter.

Thinking of what he had seen before, the Yin family made a decisive decision: “Didn’t your mother give you two houses? You clean up the big house that is near the gate of the city and far from you, and let them live in it. That house is better than you are now living in. Great, anyone will praise you for your sensibility and filial piety. Moreover, being far away from you will not hinder you. At that time, I will give them a few more people to serve, and I can tell you in time if there is any trouble.”

After Liu Tangxi heard it, he glanced at Yin in surprise.

Looking at the concern and calculation in Yin’s eyes, Liu Tangxi smiled and said, “Thank you, mother, for considering your daughter.”

“What kind of silly things are you receiving? Mother is just a daughter like you. If you don’t think about it, who else can you think about?” Yin patted his daughter’s hand, “Don’t laugh, be serious. This kind of thing has to be guarded. Don’t you know that a concubine in Wenchang Hou’s family married Tanhua Lang before, and Tanhua Lang’s parents didn’t tell her and asked her to turn around and ask her mother to do something. It’s really disgusting.”

Liu Tangxi pulled out his hand, held the Yin family, and said, “Mother, I am different from them. They married after passing the exams for poor students. You forgot, when I had no name or surname, I just I am married to a grandfather and have lived with them for two years.”

The Yin clan was startled, and said, “That’s true.”

“After the grandfather won the champion, someone from the clan also suggested that he wanted his parents to divorce me and marry the grandfather again. They didn’t agree.”

While the Yin family was gratified, they were also a little angry: “Are people in his clan so short-sighted? How can they be able to do such a thing?”

Liu Tangxi calmed the Yin family: “Their family has a bad relationship with the clan. Now that the family has come to the capital, there is nothing to be involved. Mother doesn’t have to be angry with such irrelevant people.”

“Hey, I really suffered you in the past.” Yin sighed.

Liu Tangxi said: “Mother, it’s all over, don’t you still have you now?”

Yin’s face reappeared with a solemn look, and said: “Yes, mother is the master of you, no one dare to bully you.”

With that, the Yin family again talked about Wei Hanzhou’s family.

“Han Zhou’s identity is now different from before, and so is your identity. It’s hard to guarantee that his family won’t have any ideas. You need to be more mindful.”

Liu Tangxi smiled and said, “Mother, I shouldn’t be. Aren’t my parents selling candied haws? In May, I asked them to bring back a few hundred catties of hawthorn. Then they knew who I was. This I took the initiative to ask them to come over this time. It was my mother-in-law who rescued me. They were kind to me and I always hope that they can live better.”

Hearing this, Yin sighed and said, “You, but now you are getting softer. Listening to what you said, they are very good, their character is okay, otherwise they won’t be able to train a son-in-law like this. People. But people will always change, and you still have to pay attention to that.”

“I know, mother, my daughter is not stupid.”

“Well, when they come, inviting them to be a guest at the mansion will be considered as acknowledgment of in-laws.” Yin said.

However, Yin still felt that her daughter was a bit stupid. But, be stupid, she will take care of her more.

“Can Dad agree?” Liu Tangxi asked in a low voice.

She didn’t know that Huai Enhou still didn’t look down on Wei Hanzhou’s son-in-law, because Wei Hanzhou was not on the side of the third prince, so he was not very pleasing to his eyes.

“You care about what your father does. Our two families are decent relatives, and people who don’t recognize talents will be laughed at. Having a mother is not embarrassing for them. However, with your father’s attitude, they must treat our family too. I can be afraid so that I don’t dare to bully you.”

“Well, thank you mother.”

“What do you do when you tell your mother to say such things?” Yin said with a smile, “However, your father is really a bit stupid, and he stands in line with that little **** in advance. In case the third prince fails to take the position by then, The prince and the second prince ascended the throne, and he still must not kill our mansion.”

Liu Tangxi felt that the prince and the second prince had little hope. If these three choose one, the three princes, the male lead in the book, have a better chance. However, now that there are more variables like King Jin, everything is hard to say.

I really want to say that there is hope, that is, the three princes and king Jin.

“My daughter feels that the prince and the second prince are unlikely, but the third prince is the older one.”

How did the Yin family know, she whispered: “I’d rather the second prince ascend to the throne to save the little **** from being proud!”

Liu Tangxi thought of the dumb look of the second prince, and felt that this possibility was really too small.

“However, the second prince only likes to read books and wants to go to the imperial examination, which is not suitable.” Yin said.

After saying a few more words, seeing the atmosphere a little low, Yin smiled and said, “Okay, let’s not talk about this. Yesterday, your aunt sent me some special products from the south, you can take some back when you leave. “

“Okay, mother.”

It was the twelfth lunar month in the blink of an eye, and the candied haws sold better and better.

Old customers have been retained, and new customers have increased.

In the past, Liutangxi embroidered every day to make money, and to pass the boring time, now it is no longer needed.

She doesn’t like sitting at home embroidering every day. Wei Hanzhou has prepared a dozen travel notes for her. She reads books and embroiders every day.

Or, visit your shop every few days.

On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, thinking that the dried fruit shop has been selling candied haws for more than a month, Liu Tangxi went to the dried fruit shop.

As soon as he arrived, the shopkeeper greeted him with a smile.

“Madam, I’m thinking about these few days and I will tell you about the profit from the store last month. But it is always too busy to go.”

“Um.”

Liu Tangxi was greeted inside by the shopkeeper.

The little girl sitting opposite and waiting for her to sell candied haws saw this scene, and was about to call Liu Tangxi, but saw her walking inside.

“Huh? How did she get in.” Fuping Princess asked in confusion.

Sincerely Wang Shizi Xie Congli glanced at the attitude of the shopkeeper, then glanced at the direction of the two of them, pondered for a moment, and said: “This shop Xu belongs to Mrs. Wei.”

Princess Fuping widened her eyes, clapped her hands, and said, “I’ll just say, how does the taste feel so familiar, it turns out that she made it again. She can make such delicious candied haws, but it’s too much for me to eat. No. No, I’m going to find her.” With that, Fuping Princess will go down.

However, before leaving, he was stopped by Xie Congli.

“Mrs. Wei saw that she had something to say to the shopkeeper. Why don’t we wait for them to come out before going down?”

Princess Fuping thought for a while, and felt that her brother was right, and sat down again.

However, his eyes were fixed on the shop opposite downstairs.

After Liu Tangxi entered, the shopkeeper took out the running water for nearly a month.

When taking the ledger, Liu Tangxi found that the shopkeeper’s hands were shaking.

Liu Tangxi thought, As for, how could this shopkeeper have gone through strong winds and waves, and how could he still be so calm.

However, when Liu Tangxi saw the total income, he was not calm.

Earn more than a thousand taels a month?

Why is she so good? She is really great, hey, she is so good.

However, I was already excited about selling apples and peaches before, so Liu Tangxi quickly calmed down.

“This month’s revenue is as good as our shop in the past year, no, more than a year, it is a year and a half. Candied haws sell well, and other dried fruits are 30% more than usual.” The shopkeeper was excited. Say.

Liu Tangxi nodded and said, “Indeed.”

“You said, do we want to take down the shop next to it and sell candied haws?” the shopkeeper asked.

Liu Tangxi pondered for a while and said, “No, let’s open a branch.”

There are so many stores under her, and basically they don’t make much money. Instead of buying another shop, it is better to change a non-profitable shop into a shop selling candied haws.

For example, the wine shop that moved to Yunxia Street, the shop on Xunfang Street, the rouge gouache shop near the city gate, and so on. These shops add up to less than a thousand taels a year.

“I’m thinking about it, and by that time I will change a few non-profitable shops into shops selling candied haws.”

After the shopkeeper listened, the smile on his face fell a little bit.

Other shops have shopkeepers, and if they open a branch, it has nothing to do with him.

“However, I will have to trouble Uncle Wu to take care of the several shops at that time. The layout of the shop, the plaque at the door, the taste of candied haws, etc., should be as consistent as possible. From now on, this will be regarded as the main store, and the others will be branches.”

Most of the shopkeepers were mismanaged, and they happened to be changed all at once.

Shopkeeper Wu understood what Liu Tangxi meant, and the smile on his face deepened. This is to let him be the big shopkeeper, the others are the second shopkeepers?

“Yes, don’t worry, Madam, I will do my best and promise not to disappoint you.”

“Well, think about how to make changes these days, try to make all the shops consistent.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

Afterwards, the two went out.

Liu Tangxi hasn’t eaten candied haws for several days, so he wants to eat it a little. So I personally skewered a few glutinous rice fillings and prepared to dip them in sugar.

However, I had just dipped in sugar and was about to eat, but heard a familiar voice.

“So this shop really belongs to you?” Princess Fuping looked at Liu Tangxi’s movements and said.

“Yes.” Liu Tangxi said.

After speaking, she looked at Xie Congli who came in.

“Mrs. Wei.”

“The son, the princess.” Liu Tangxi saluted.

“Today, I came with my sister to buy candied haws. I happened to see Mrs. Wei. Zhen Zhen wanted to come and say hello to you.” Xie Congli explained.

After Liu Tangxi heard this, he tangled a little, and passed the candied haws in his hand to Fuping Princess.

Princess Fuping smiled and said, “Count you acquaintance.”

Seeing that Fuping County mainly eats, Xie Congli hurriedly said: “Zhen Zhen, you have already eaten a bunch today. You can’t eat too much.”

Xie Congli could not control her, Fuping Princess did not listen. He ate, and while eating, he said: “I will eat one more string today, and I will not eat it tomorrow.”

While talking, Liu Tangxi made another string of mung bean paste by himself and handed it to Xie Congli.

Seeing that Xie Congli didn’t want to pick it up, Liu Tangxi said, “My son, taste it, the taste is okay.”

“Thank you, ma’am.”

“The world is polite.”

“Brother, don’t you have problems in your mansion? You go back first. I will go to her house for dinner at noon. When you go back, remember to tell your mother that I will go back in the afternoon.”

Hearing this, Xie Congli hesitated and looked at Liu Tangxi.

“I wonder if Madam is convenient?”

Liu Tangxi thought, even if it is inconvenient, she can’t talk about it.

“It’s my pleasure.”

“Thank you Madam. Zhen Zhen, you are obedient, don’t make trouble.”

“I see, brother, you’re so long-winded, let’s go.”

Liu Tangxi took a wrapped bag and wrapped the candied haws in Xie Congli’s hands.

Later, Liu Tangxi followed a follower.

She will follow wherever she goes.

However, the princess’s carriage is more upscale than hers and very comfortable.

“You have a lot of shops, when can you finish shopping, aren’t you hungry, don’t you go home to cook?”

“There are not as many as the princess.” Liu Tangxi said.

“Well, it’s really not as much as mine. I have a whole city, hundreds of shops, and tens of thousands of mu of land.”

Liutangxi:…

There is no way to talk about this topic.

“Oh? What are you doing so fast? I haven’t finished talking yet. I still have Zhuangzi.”

“Aren’t you hungry, go home and cook.”

“Great! I want to eat the sweet and sour pork ribs, spicy chicken wings, fried chicken chops that you made that day…” Princess Fuping swallowed and continued, “There is also corn soup.”

At noon, Wei Hanzhou frowned slightly looking at the slightly sweet and sour meal.

I thought to myself, could it be that he was too cruel last night and the lady was upset? ,,
