Beautiful Peasant Girl: The Young Marquis's Beloved

Liu Xu was always generous and magnanimous to these national heroes. After a few simple words of concern, he let them go on with their work.

The workers were concentrating on their work, and Liu Xu did not disturb them, but just looked at them from outside.

Now that she had very good eyesight, she saw that everyone's hands were moving very skillfully. Looking at a row of people, everyone was neatly dressed, with their hair tied up tightly, and no one had ungreased fingernails. She couldn't help but nod in admiration.

Afterwards, she went to the preserved meat shop and saw that everything was in good order. She left with peace of mind.

Four years ago, willow catkins were finally used to make down quilts.

Because there was no alkaline detergent, we kept washing and drying with clean water at first, but the smell could not be removed. Later, we accidentally discovered that washing with water soaked in plant ash was several times better than washing with clean water and drying, and this is how we made a down quilt with very little smell.

Nowadays, the price of down quilts made by Xiufang has remained high, and they have become a favorite item among the rich and powerful. Moreover, since other people do not have a way to remove the odor, and the down quilts and quilt covers are different, no one has been able to imitate them.

Speaking of this, we have to mention Lanxin Embroidery Workshop.

Today, Xu Ruolan's Lanxin Embroidery Workshop is well-known among the dignitaries in Dongsheng.

Although she only has one store in Qinghe County, Chang Yifei has already opened stores in all the prefectures in Dongsheng.

Although there are many imitations, Lanxin Embroidery Studio launches new patterns every quarter. For these wealthy families, using Lanxin Embroidery Studio's bedding sets is like using luxury goods in modern times.

Sure enough, no matter what era, the brand effect is the same.

Not only Lanxin Embroidery Workshop, but Zuiyunxuan and Zhenxiuge have also moved beyond Yongshun Prefecture.

Zuiyunxuan mainly develops in the entire west and north. Even if its business is not the best, it can still be ranked in the top five.

Zhenxiu Pavilion is different. Like bedding stores, it has one in almost every capital city, including Beijing, and its business has always been booming.

It’s not that no one wants to use unfair means, it’s just that there has never been an opportunity.

Because Chang Yifei is not a pushover, the people he employs in his shop are almost all retired veterans, except for his own people.

These veterans are extremely grateful to the Mu family, the Liu family, and the Chang family. Do you want to bribe them? Oh, you underestimate the integrity of the soldiers.

Want to tamper with the vegetables? Don’t you know that the vegetables they use are all grown in their own farms?

And there is no need for delivery. The store sends people directly to the fields to pick the fruits every day. Even the people who grow the vegetables are the families of these veterans.

Someone caused trouble in the store? There were a few times, but in the end, the troublemakers always apologized and made amends.

Gradually, those people discovered that although Zhenxiu Pavilion had good business, it only sold soup pots, barbecues and braised dishes, and had little impact on businesses such as frying, stir-frying and stewing.

Of course, it’s not completely without impact. After all, if you eat at Zhenxiu Pavilion, you won’t have to go to a restaurant for another meal.

But it's better than getting nothing, right? There will always be new stores opening.

It has to be said that these businesses are good at comforting themselves, which has also allowed Zhenxiu Pavilion to gain a firm foothold in various states.

However, Zhenxiu Pavilion did not expand any further, and one store in each state was enough.

At the same time, tea oil also became an item that dignitaries fought over.

Moreover, as rapeseed was grown from willow catkins, the drawings of oil presses and noodle making machines were requisitioned by the imperial court, the output of vegetable oil increased, and the price of Dongsheng's vegetable oil dropped directly to twelve cents per catty.

This is undoubtedly a great thing for the people.

Dried noodles are also very popular, but because they are made of white flour, ordinary people just buy them to try.

But for merchants on the road, it is very convenient. With the Liu family's sauce, you only need to boil a pot of water to have a delicious meal.

Liu Xu also asked Mu Lingxuan to secretly make some instant noodles specifically for the scouts.

In addition, under Xuan Er's operation, Xianlefang became a famous elegant garden in Dongsheng and also became Mu Lingxuan's intelligence base.

I don't know how Xuan Er did it, but he actually dragged Prince He Qin into the water and made Prince He Qin one of the official owners of Xianlefang.

It seems that everything is moving in the right direction.

However, no one expected that Nan Yue would be ready to make a move at this time.

And there is Xiao Rui, who has always made Liu Xu suspicious.

Just as he was thinking about it, Liu Xu had already arrived at the door of Liu Changshun's house.

When the doorman saw it was her, he quickly welcomed her in.

At this time, Liu Changshun was still in the workshop, and Chen Lan was still the manager of the embroidery workshop. The only one left at home was Xing'er, who no longer went to school.

When Xing'er heard the servant's report, her eyes lit up and she hurried out.

"Xu'er, you're here!"

The two sisters, one inside and one outside, quickly came together and looked at each other with curved eyebrows.

Xing'er has reached marriage age. Just like her name, she has a pair of lively and bright almond-shaped eyes. Although her facial features are not as good as Liuxu's, she is also a pretty lady.

"Oh, it looks like you've been working very hard recently. I haven't seen you for just a few days, but your temperament is no different from that of the young ladies from wealthy families in the county town!" Liu Xu joked with a smile.

However, this is also the truth. If Xing Er goes out now, everyone will praise her.

Since she has reached the age of marriage, she has to start thinking about marriage. Xing'er is now being kept at home by Chen Lan to learn the rules and regulations, and she has specially asked old lady Lin to invite a nanny from the county town to take care of her.

"Stop talking like that. I've been spanked a lot for this." Xing'er said angrily.

In fact, Liu Xu originally wanted to ask Nanny Qu for help, but Chen Lan refused.

They were just an ordinary family, and Nanny Qu came from the palace, so it would be a waste of her talent to teach. That's why he asked Xu Ruolan for help and asked Madam Lin to introduce someone.

The two little sisters walked back to the inner courtyard hand in hand.

"It's a good thing that Madam is strict. Not to mention you, I was beaten a lot before. Madam Qu is even stricter than Madam Zhou."

Willow Catkins couldn't help shuddering when she thought about the time when she was learning the rules.

It can be seen how strict the gentle Aunt Qu is.

"Oh, it would be nice if I never grew up." Xing'er said helplessly while pouring tea for Liuxu.

"That won't work. You can't realize your dream unless you grow up. Do you want to stay in Liujia Village all your life?" Liu Xu raised his eyebrows and asked back.

"Hey! I'm not like you. I find that I'm not as free as I was when I was a kid after I grew up."

Her family is different from Xuer's. Xuer has been the backbone of the family since she was young. Her uncle and aunt respect her and often listen to her. But she has the least say in the family.

Thinking of this, Xing'er looked at Liuxu with envy and sighed again.

"Don't think so. Look around the village. Which girl has her own business before getting married? Not to mention the village, there are very few outside. But your farm, if I remember correctly, has been yours from the beginning, right? You are richer than Brother Shuisheng!"

Liu Xu gave her a blank look.

Although Xing'er stays at home all day, she already owns a house, a farm and two large farms. These are all her savings over the past few years.

At the beginning, Liu Changshun and his wife discussed it and decided to give the pig farm directly to Xing'er.

The tofu shop provides her with bean dregs, and the bean curd produced will be collected by specialty workshops. This is simply making money without doing anything.

This shows how much Liu Changshun and his wife love their daughter, no less than their son.

Xing'er burst into laughter at what she said.

Yes, except Xuer, she is also the best in the village.

"You didn't come here just to see me today, did you?"

"Well, I came to talk to my uncle about something, and you came by the way!"

Xing Er: If you hadn’t said the last sentence, we would still be good sisters!
