I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

"Thank you, elder. You have worked hard. This is a small token of my appreciation to you!" Ji Xiaobei gave the remaining two taels of silver to elder Sui.

The elder of the Sui clan was so excited that he almost cried and said, "Miss Ji, if you have any problems in the future, just come to me. I'm in South City, no, I'm in the textile street, so I still have some say..."

Ji Xiaobei said a few polite words. Renovating the textile workshop would surely alarm the neighbors, and maybe he would even be able to ask the elders of the Sui clan for help.

Mrs. Song also said with a smile: "Sui clan elder, tomorrow morning, you should ask your grandson to go to the county government office and find Lei Qi. He has arranged a position for the child."

The elder of the Sui clan was so excited that he almost fell to his knees, tears welling up in his eyes.

Ji Xiaobei: If it weren’t for Mrs. Song, this matter would be really difficult to handle!

In just three days, Ji Xiaobei bought the entire alley.

She told the news to the people in the workshop, and the workshop was in an uproar.

How can it be?

When the Sui family heard that the textile workshop was going to be expanded, they mocked Dong Niu in a sarcastic manner.

"It's impossible for a foreigner from your family, a woman, to buy our entire alley. Our elders said that we have lived here for generations and there is no way we can move away."

"Yes, moving away would be disrespectful to the ancestors of the Sui family."

"Although our house is a bit run-down, it is our ancestral home. We will not sell it no matter how much money you offer."

Hearing these words, Dong Niu glared angrily.

He was powerless to refute because he also felt that his boss was daydreaming.

The current workshop is already very good. We are overwhelmed with orders and the workers earn a lot. Why bother expanding it?

Besides, there are small workshops like this everywhere on the textile street.

He told this to Shi Tou, and Shi Tou felt so heartbroken that blood was dripping from his eyes.

However, he didn't like what Dongniu said.

He could refute his sister's actions in his heart, but he would not allow others to disagree with his sister's actions.

Shitou said angrily, "Uncle Dongniu, my sister has her own rules for doing things, so don't worry about it!"

Dongniu: I, I was indeed worrying too much!

Oh, these two siblings are really hard to understand.

Just now, Shitou complained that his boss's ideas were unrealistic.

……

The Sui family began to pack up their things happily.

That day, Mrs. Lin happened to come as well.

Seeing that the Sui family was transporting things out in carts, she hurriedly grabbed a maid and asked what was going on.

"Thank you, boss, for buying our yard. We are moving out!"

Mrs. Lin: …When did this happen?

The only thing I didn’t come was yesterday!

She looked around the alley. Oh my god, there were so many courtyards. How much money would this cost? It was incredible!

She staggered into the yard.

Song Laohei and a few others were dismantling the wall in the yard, and Ji Xiaobei was pointing and gesticulating to others about something.

Mrs. Lin calmed herself down and tried to calm herself down.

She can buy a farm as big as that in Dongcheng, so what else can't she do?

Oh! Forget it, I am old now, I will just let the kids do whatever they want.

When Ji Xiaobei saw his mother coming, he excitedly came over to pull her.

"Mom, this alley belongs to us. I plan to renovate it like this: tear down a piece of the wall at the back, build a moon gate, and build a dyeing workshop at the back.

Dig a hole in the front wall and build a moon gate. Build a weaving house in the front, and there is also the alley..."

Ji Xiaobei was beaming with joy, while Mrs. Lin clenched her teeth, her heart beating fast, but she still had a strong smile on her face.

I can't spoil my daughter's fun!

Shitou shouted, "Sister, come here for a moment, Uncle Black wants to ask you something!"

Ji Xiaobei agreed and said, "Mom, I'll go take a look. You can look around and see if what I'm thinking is reasonable or not."

After Ji Xiaobei left, Mrs. Lin's legs felt weak and she quickly leaned against the wall.

This is very reasonable and she has no objection at all.

She leaned against the wall and took a quarter of an hour to convince herself.

In short, it can be summed up in one sentence: listen to your eldest daughter, you won’t go wrong.

She clenched her fists: I still have to go back to see my kids. My legs go weak whenever I see this alley.

Ji Xiaobei was curious, why was his mother leaving right after arriving?

Never mind. After all, the two children are her favorite.

The textile workshop is undergoing transformation in full swing.

Zheng Dafu Silver Shop is in the final stages of construction.

Behind the courtyard where Fu Jichang lived in the backyard of the government office, there was a small rockery with a pavilion on it.

Whenever Fu Jichang returned to the government office, he would go to the pavilion.

Xuyou was very puzzled: Is it so hot today?

Is it necessary for the master to go to such a high pavilion to enjoy the cool air?

It shouldn't be for the cool breeze, because every time the master goes up there, he would prepare a blanket for the master.

Maybe it's lonely at the top and the mind is clearer.

This period is indeed quite difficult for the master. The case of the Salt and Iron Bureau has not been concluded yet, and he has been assigned back to Anzhou to maintain stability.

That's really bad. Let him be alone for a while.

He tightened his jacket and continued to wait under the rockery.

Fu Jichang was wrapped in a blanket, looking at the Zheng Dafu Silver Shop which had just put up a sign across the street, and thought to himself: I have traveled all over the world and seen silver shops called things like gold and silver, but I don't know why Ji Xiaobei's silver shop is called Zheng Dafu.

But it doesn't sound bad if you get used to it.

Zhengguo Handicraft Workshop, Zhengguo Textile Workshop, Zhengguo Manor, Zheng Dafu Silver Shop.

She had been in Anzhou for less than a year, but she had already owned so many shops. She had been in business for so many days, but she had never met her boss.

How did she sell the goods?

She can take out those strange things to detoxify herself...

Fu Jichang raised the corner of his mouth and didn't want to think about it too much. For some reason, he felt a little scared in his heart, afraid that she would suddenly disappear one day.

He shuddered and was a little afraid to think about it further.

Fu Jichang has already told Jiaojiao that as long as Ji Xiaobei doesn't ask about his identity, he should not tell her.

Unexpectedly, Ji Xiaobei really didn’t ask.

It’s better not to know. I am now responsible for the case of the Salt and Iron Bureau. This case is not simple. If it is investigated thoroughly, it will definitely cause an uproar in the court.

By then, you will be unable to control yourself and be caught in a vortex, and you may not be able to protect yourself.

His Majesty's face is unpredictable, and living with him is like living with a tiger.

When he was fighting on the battlefield, he had only one thought in mind, which was to be loyal to the emperor, serve the court, protect the land, and let the people live and work in peace.

His idea of ​​protecting the people remains unchanged, but he doesn't want to run around anymore.

I would rather spend more time with my grandmother.

Stay with the two children.

My grandmother is old, and her mental state is sometimes good and sometimes not. As she gets older, I never know where I’ll be able to see her again.

The children grew up very quickly. Every time he saw them, he would regret it and wish he could stay a moment longer. Every time he left, he would try hard to remember the smiling faces of the two children.

He felt a little sad when he thought of this.

Sometimes, he really wanted to show his purse to Ji Xiaobei. He was the one who did that incident and he was willing to take responsibility for it.

But how can I say this?

As a woman, she endured so much pressure, pregnancy and childbirth, and suffered so much...

Fu Jichang stroked the purse in his hand and fell into deep thought...
