The little ancestor of the family

Chapter 135 Married Woman

The Leng family is one of the seven richest businessmen in Daliang.

Old Man Leng started out as a peddler who traveled the streets, and he expanded his business to outside the Great Wall. He is considered a legendary figure among people.

Leng Qianqiu and his wife are a loving couple and have a pair of daughters. After the two daughters came of age, many wealthy families in Beijing flocked to them, wanting to have their sons become sons-in-law of the Leng family.

But Mr. Leng saw it clearly.

In Daliang, rich families marry their daughters off, while poor families marry their wives; this is the long-term solution.

If you find an unreliable son-in-law, your daughter will be the one who suffers in the end.

Old Master Leng had seen such cases before. Some sons-in-law looked honest and decent, but after the woman's parents passed away, they began to reveal their true colors within a year. They took in a new wife, promoted concubines, fought for the family property, and snatched offspring.

Going from poor to rich, from nothing to something, will make a person become greedy.

Therefore, Mr. Leng was determined not to take in a son-in-law, but let his daughters choose the candidates they liked.

The status of Daliang merchants was no lower than that of scholars.

In the end, Leng Qingyu married into a marquis's family, and Leng Qingxin married the new top scholar of the year.

The eldest daughter was good at business, so Leng Qianqiu slowly handed over part of the family business to her.

The second daughter was in poor health and her husband was a noble scholar, so the old man gave them more of the shop so that they could live a worry-free life just by collecting rent.

Both sons-in-law are good, and the old man is very happy.

He thought that as long as his children were living well, he wouldn't have to worry about anything, but he didn't know that someone was eyeing the coffin money he had saved for his retirement.

Yuntong County.

The students of Qingshan Academy have been drinking refreshing drinks these days.

A cup costs 10 cents, and it has a sour and sweet taste. After drinking it, I no longer feel sleepy in the afternoon, and even my bad breath is gone.

"Does this refreshing drink really contain Chinese medicine?"

While drinking cool drinks together, someone asked a classmate.

"Of course there is. I can taste the flavors of sour jujube kernels and licorice."

"The Double Star Tea from Shunyitang tastes similar to this, but it doesn't have the aftertaste of sweetness." Someone else said.

"Yes, every time I go home my mother makes me Double Star Tea. Now that you mention it, I think the taste is very similar. And the medicinal effect of Double Star Tea is similar to this."

"Didn't you guys hear? The waiter said this is also a recipe for clearing away heat, relieving summer heat and refreshing the mind. In fact, it has a similar effect to Double Star Tea."

"Then I'm going to go back and tell my mom during this holiday not to buy Double Star Tea anymore, but this refreshing drink. I still like the taste better."

"I don't need it. I can drink it every day in the academy anyway. I won't drink it after I go home."

"You know what, this Yongle Hall really knows how to think of a way to put the medicine into a bamboo tube. It feels like what you are drinking is not medicine, but nectar."

"Exactly!"

The students each took a bamboo cup back, and Wei Jingyi took two cups for herself.

One cup is for myself, and the other cup is to be taken back to Changqing.

Lu Changqing's body has mostly recovered.

According to his personality in the capital, he would have gotten up and started reading by now.

But recently I don’t know what’s wrong with me, I just can’t get up from bed.

When Wei Jingyi got home, Lu Changqing was leaning against a pillow reading a book.

"Here, this is your refreshing drink."

Wei Jingyi handed over the bamboo cup.

"Tell me what the academy taught today."

Lu Changqing took the cup without even raising his head.

"Can't you go to the academy and listen to the teacher's lectures? If you don't go, I won't be able to answer the teacher's questions."

Lu Changqing finally looked up.

"Do you want me to listen to the teacher's lecture, or do you want me to help you cheat?"

"Anyway, if you don't go to the academy anymore, I won't go either."

Wei Jingyi sat down on the stool beside the bed.

"It doesn't matter," Lu Changqing said indifferently, "You don't understand anyway, and you won't be able to explain anything to me when you come back."

"Then how long do you plan to lie down?" Wei Jingyi was really convinced.

Lu Changqing blinked his eyes and said, "Wait until all my illnesses are healed."

"Forget it, forget it. I don't expect you to get better." Wei Jingyi shook his head and said, "By the way, this is the last cup of refreshing drink today. The waiter at the clinic said that they have to go to the mountains to plant medicinal herbs in the next few days, so they won't come to sell refreshing drinks."

“They also grow their own herbs?”

Lu Changqing asked casually.

Wei Jingyi was waiting for this sentence. He immediately sat down beside Lu Changqing's bed and said proudly, "I actually asked about this matter. Guess what I asked?"

"what?"

Lu Changqing doesn't like people getting too close to him.

Not even Wei Jingyi can do that.

While asking the question, he kicked Wei Jingyi off the bed.

Wei Jingyi had no choice but to sit back on the stool beside the bed.

"The doctor Ye who treated you has a close relationship with Yongle Hall. This refreshing drink is all from the prescription of doctor Ye."

Lu Changqing looked at the bamboo cup, a smile appeared on his lips: "No wonder I think it tastes good."

Seeing that Lu Changqing was interested, Wei Jingyi continued to show off: "I have been chatting with the waiters of Yongle Hall these two days, and they all said that this girl from the Ye family is not an ordinary person. She has good medical skills and high-level methods. The shopkeepers of their clinics have to listen to her.

So this time Miss Ye said she wanted to grow medicinal herbs, so the shopkeeper sent all the waiters in the store to Yunbian Village to grow herbs."

Not only is she a doctor, but she also grows her own medicine?

Lu Changqing thought.

Those days must have been very hard, right?

I really want to go to the village and see what kind of life she lives.

Once this thought came up, I could no longer suppress it.

Lu Changqing looked at Wei Jingyi and suddenly asked, "What did you say just now?"

Wei Jingyi looked confused.

"I just said that the female doctor is very powerful..."

"Not this!" Lu Changqing shook his head.

"You just said that you don't want to go to the academy?"

"I did say that, but wasn't it to get you to go with me..."

Wei Jingyi didn't know why he suddenly brought this up. Could he be going to complain?

He looked at Lu Changqing with a vigilant look, and heard Lu Changqing say, "Then don't go, let's go to Yunbian Village together."

what?

Ah? ? ?

Wei Jingyi reached out and touched Lu Changqing's forehead.

"No fever, is your brain okay?"

He didn't want to go to school, but wanted to go to Yunbian Village? What on earth did he want to do?

"You don't want to go?" Lu Changqing looked at his expression, "Then I'll let Shunzi go with me."

Shunzi is Wei Jingyi's servant.

The two came from the capital this time, and only Wei Jingyi brought a servant with him.

"How can that idiot Shunzi serve you? If you really want to go, I have to accompany you personally."

Wei Jingyi had no choice but to agree.

"But you have to tell me, why do you want to go?

Are you attracted to Doctor Ye? But she is a married woman! ? "
