Don't worry about traveling through time, she has an all-powerful senior sister to help her

Chapter 143

"I'll pretend to be a servant and follow my elder brother." Shen Lingzhu didn't expect that the old soldier was so powerful. He found someone who was willing to come forward in just half a day.

There was a reason why Captain Chen sent him out. He was a man who knew how to spend money wisely.

"If I agree to let you go, who would you need to pretend to be?" Shen Xianzhu glanced at her unhappily.

"His family is powerful and has many informants. I'm afraid the Wang family will get the news as soon as we go to visit Uncle Seven.

And he has a clear idea of ​​our number." He had a basis for saying this.

For example, when he was in Shun County, He Da Hu, a butcher, was able to find out the situation in the county in a short period of time.

Shen Lingzhu deliberately misinterpreted his meaning: "Thank you, brother. I will go change my clothes now."

She happily pulled the somewhat dazed Ren back to her room and advised, "Seventh Aunt, it's very likely that after meeting tonight, the other party will agree to reconcile, and Seventh Uncle will be able to be released tomorrow."

"I hope so." Ren didn't think things would be that easy. Previously, Zhu just wanted to change inns but failed, and now he was rescuing people from prison.

Shen Lingzhu didn't know what she was thinking. In her opinion, as long as Uncle Qi was rescued, it would be more effective than persuading her a hundred times.

However, to her disappointment, she excitedly followed her eldest brother to the appointment, but only a manager showed up from the other side.

He also said frankly at the table that his second master had already gone to the provincial capital and had no knowledge of the contract.

Huang Zongqi was very annoyed, but he tried his best to suppress it and not show it on his face.

But Shen Xianzhu was young, and his face was already cold. Did the Wang family do this on purpose? They agreed to go on the date and then went back on their word.

Shen Lingzhu looked at the table full of expensive dishes ordered by the other party and couldn't help but sneer: "So, Steward Wang came here just for this meal."

"Haha, don't joke, young master, you asked someone to invite me here.

Of course, if you don't sincerely invite me, I'll take my leave now." Manager Wang actually got up and left.

He thought the three would persuade him to stay, but they walked quickly to the door, and no one spoke.

Shen Lingzhu clearly saw that Steward Wang hesitated with his hand on the door, and she couldn't help but stand up and said, "Steward Wang, if you want to talk, then talk seriously.

Although the deed was signed by a wealthy family here, it is a fact that it has now been transferred to the Wang family."

Steward Wang turned around and said, "You two, are you going to let a child bully me like this?"

"You are not worthy of being bullied by my sister." Shen Xianzhu didn't even move.

Sister? Steward Wang carefully looked at Shen Lingzhu. She took a deep breath and carefully chose her words, "We not only invited Master Wang with sincerity.

I also heard that the postmaster at the post station has an unusually close relationship with your Second Master."

When Manager Wang heard this, his heart skipped a beat. Today, when he learned that the post station outside the city was surrounded, the master's letter was also delivered by express horse.

The master has only one request, which is that the second master and his family return to the provincial capital as soon as possible.

Others may not know, but he knows very well how many times his family has done business with the postmaster.

But the second master has been dragging it out for several days and hasn’t left yet, alas!

"Miss Shen, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want." Manager Wang struggled and looked at her directly.

Shen Xianzhu wanted to move, but his sister gave him a look that told him to be patient.

She even smiled and said to Manager Wang: "Whether it's nonsense or not, you don't have the final say.

Only the Provincial Inspector who is conducting this inspection on behalf of the Heavenly Emperor is qualified to make this judgment."

"You!" Manager Wang has become more and more popular in recent years. He has been flattered for so long that he has forgotten that there are more hurtful words in the world.

Shen Lingzhu still smiled and said, "Goodbye, please settle the bill before you leave."

Manager Wang slowly regulated his breathing, turned around and left. He had to hurry and inform the Second Master and Second Mistress.

Shen Lingzhu immediately ran to the window of the box and opened it, then lowered his head and gestured to Li Laojunhu and Xia Xing who were waiting below to catch up.

Seeing the two of them chasing after her, she retreated back to the table and sat down, saying, "It's a waste not to eat, but it doesn't look good to pick up the chopsticks?

How about I call everyone over to eat together?"

The older brother who worked with her on the windows said, "If you send so many away, who will eat?"

...The following will be revised tomorrow

Moreover, as a big shopkeeper, he probably wouldn’t look down on such a small amount of money, otherwise why would he never sell this method.

Thinking of this, she wanted to complain. When she read those online articles about selling vegetables and wine and making all kinds of popular recipes, are they really so difficult to put into practice?

If I had known I was traveling through time, would it be okay if I memorized a few more recipes?

Shopkeeper Hu was a very smart man. When he saw the wrinkles on her face, he immediately understood that Master Shen had not only asked him about the price, but he was also thinking that he might be able to make a comeback.

Moreover, Mrs. Hu had done medicinal materials business with Jirentang, so they had some relationship with it.

He pondered for a moment and said, "There are many temples and monasteries near the academy in the outer city where your eldest brother studies. There are also several small stalls making iced drinks and iced yogurt. They have always had to buy ice cubes from other places at high prices. Maybe they can give it a try."

"Thank you for your advice." Shen Lingzhu's eyes lit up, and he clapped his left hand and saluted with his right hand.

She was in a hurry to go back to the backyard to find her eldest brother, and she didn't notice that Manager Hu was startled and shook his head slightly when she ran away. She didn't even know that she should bow instead of clasping her hands, and she didn't follow the convention that men should be on the left and women on the right.

On this side, Shen Miaozhu threw down the firewood and shook his head. Four hundred miles was not too far. A person could get there in three or four days if he was alone. But with a pregnant woman and a child, it would be difficult to travel fifty miles a day by donkey cart.

What's more, they had to boil medicine on the way to see if my uncle could hold on. It would take at least ten days for them to return home.

Looking at the numbers splattered on the ground, she could only hope that her uncle's friends would be more helpful.

Just as he wiped the words off the ground with his foot, a gust of hot wind blew past him. "Little Bamboo?"

"Let's talk later." Shen Lingzhu rushed to the door and walked in slowly. Seeing her brother wiping his face, she waited for a moment and said, "Brother, do you want to take Auntie home safely and quickly?"

"Of course I do." Shen Xianzhu threw down the towel without a second thought. Although he felt it was silly to ask his eight-year-old sister, he really couldn't borrow a carriage himself. "Do you have any ideas for getting one?"

Shen Lingzhu waved for him to come out. The two of them were so engrossed in whispering at the door that Shen Miaozhu, who had just returned from borrowing needlework, didn't come up to disturb them.

But after a while, the two of them just said "let's go to the outer city" and left.

Shen Miaozhu caught up with the two men in a few steps and grabbed them by the collar. When she learned that the plan to make ice with saltpeter had been shelved, she thought about it and gave them a hundred coins to buy saltpeter.

……

It’s only a few blocks from Jirentang to the city gate, but the academy is right on the diagonal side of this side.

Shen Xianzhu walked hard, but Shen Lingzhu would not delay making big money for a little money, so he decisively stopped him at the city gate and called a donkey cart.

She also asked the rickshaw driver where she could buy an obedient donkey, how much it would cost, and how much it would cost to pair it with a rickshaw.

In short, when she arrived at the academy, she had already figured out the market situation and secretly thought that if she could make more money, she could buy a more durable mule cart.

After getting off the bus, she walked without caring about anyone and went straight to the ice drink stand she saw. She was quite greedy when she saw others taking the steaming sour plum juice.
