Divorcing your wife might feel good for a moment, but seeing me make money will make you regret it f

Xu Qing left Zhao Da to meet Daya outside the yamen, also to ensure Daya's safe return.

Considering that Daya had tipped her off, she decided to forgive her for her past mistakes.

Xu Qing returned to the Xu family home first.

Xu Jiancheng and Xu Qing decided to give their elder brother and sister-in-law a 7-day holiday, as they were newlyweds.

In modern times, a honeymoon takes a month, but she only gave her older brother a 7-day break, which makes her feel a little guilty.

Fortunately, there are enough people now. Xu Jianguo is honest and doesn't talk much, so Xu Qing feels at ease letting him deliver milk tea.

Xu Gong was sent to Dukou Town, while Zhao Da was responsible for the construction team helping clients renovate their toilets.

The one-armed beggar no longer sets up a stall in town; he helps look after the land he cultivates.

With everything arranged at home, Xu Qing decided to take the sample squat toilet to the prefectural city by boat today.

Business in Datong Town and Dukou Town is generally stable.

She wants to expand her business as soon as possible, not just milk tea and squat toilets; as a modern woman, she has many other ways to make money.

Besides, she also has a system.

As I approached the gate, I saw Aunt Tian peeking in.

Xu Qing patted Aunt Tian on the shoulder: "Aunt Tian, ​​is there something you need?"

Aunt Tian rubbed her hands together sheepishly and said:

"Didn't we say today that we'd get a 2-tael silver reward for catching someone? Qing girl, you were all busy just now, so I was too embarrassed to ask."

Now that you're back, everything should be taken care of. As for my money..."

Xu Qing spoke frankly: "Aunt Tian, ​​the wedding planner I invited on stage today has already pointed it out to us."

By the time you spoke, my family had already surrounded them, so I'm afraid I can't give you the silver.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Tian jumped up in anger: "What do you mean? If you want to renege on your debt, just say so! Why did you say that someone had already pointed it out? Why didn't you say so then?"

Xu Qing, remembering he had other things to do and not wanting to get entangled with Aunt Tian, ​​said good-naturedly:

"Well, I didn't say it at the time, but I'm not trying to renege on my promise. You can ask the matchmaker about it."

They said first, "I've already given you two taels," and then you said, "I'll give you one tael of silver."

Aunt Tian persisted, saying, "No, it was supposed to be two taels, why are you only giving me one tael? You have to give me two taels, otherwise, I'm sitting here and not leaving."

Xu Qing was stunned for a moment, then took the silver back and said with a smile:

"In that case, you can sit here. You're a free watchdog, and you don't even need to feed you. That's great."

After saying that, he walked past Aunt Tian and went into the house, then slammed the door shut with a loud bang.

In the room.

Xu Gong and Wen Shi were very worried when they heard that Xu Qing was going to the prefectural city, especially Wen Shi, who had never left Datong Town in her entire life.

Now that her daughter says she's going to the prefectural city, she feels uneasy.

“Daughter, we have enough money at home, why bother to work so hard?”

Xu Gong chimed in, "Yes, little sister, we can't even keep up with the orders in Datong Town and Dukou Town, why do we have to go to the prefectural city?"

Xu Qing: "I want to go see you, Mother, Second Brother. Don't worry, I have acquaintances in the prefectural city. I'll be back in two or three days."

Hearing that there were acquaintances among them, Ms. Wen felt a little more at ease. She knew that her daughter was now a very opinionated person, and even if she couldn't help her, she at least shouldn't hold her back.

"I'm worried about you going alone, so I'll have your second brother go with you. At least you'll have someone to look after you."

Xu Gong nodded vigorously from the side: "Yes, yes, yes, and bring Zhao Dazhi along too. He's tall and strong, so people will know we're not easy to bully."

Xu Qing: "I'm going to investigate the market and do business, not to fight. Why bring so many people with me? Besides, if you all leave, who will do the housework?"

Ms. Wen didn't understand business matters, so she didn't dare to speak up again, but she was still worried about her daughter going on a long trip alone.

After thinking it over, she said, "Then I'll go with you. I'm really worried about you going out alone."

I'm afraid they won't be able to sleep tonight. Since Bao Bao and Zhen Zhen have never traveled far before, I'll take the two girls along to broaden their horizons.

Xu Qing thought to himself, "I'm afraid of being seen, so I don't even dare to go to the town. How could I let Zhenzhen go to the prefectural city? I'm afraid the one-armed beggar would be the first to object."

But seeing her mother's restless appearance, Xu Qing couldn't help but soften her heart.

"Mom, you've never been on a boat before. What if you get seasick? Besides, I'm going to investigate the market, which will definitely involve a lot of running around."

I wouldn't feel comfortable letting you take the kids out to play alone in an unfamiliar town, so you should stay home and take good care of Beibei.

Let my second brother come with me. Jianguo has worked hard these past two days; let him deliver supplies to two towns.

Seeing that her daughter had finally agreed to have someone accompany her, Madam Wen finally smiled with relief. Looking at the sky outside, she said:

"Your elder brother is getting married today, and with that incident, you must be exhausted. Get a good rest tonight and leave tomorrow morning."

Xu Qing had originally planned to come back, tell her family, and then leave, but seeing Wen's worried expression, she couldn't help but comfort her.

As we chatted, we realized we were running out of time, as there were only two boat trips a day.

I guess I'll have to go tomorrow.

Seeing Xu Qing nod, Madam Wen immediately got up to pack Xu Qing's belongings.

At this moment, Zhao Dazhi also returned with Daya.

Xu Qing said to Xu Gong, "Second brother, you should also pack some clothes and tell Bai Zhi. After all, you'll be gone for several days, and we don't know when you'll be back."

Xu Gong slapped his head: "Little sister is right, I'll go right now."

After seeing Xu Gong off, he said to Zhao Dazhi, "Go ahead and get busy. Thank you and the brothers for today. I'll give you an extra 100 coins this month."

Zhao Da happily took his leave.

Xu Qing was the only one left in the living room. Da Ya suddenly knelt down in front of Xu Qing:

“Aunt Qing, I have done as you instructed. You promised me…”

Xu Qing took out 50 taels of silver that he had prepared in advance and placed it on the table.

When Daya saw the pile of gleaming silver ingots, her eyes widened, and she involuntarily stood up and lunged at the table.

Xu Qing, however, held the silver in his hand and said slowly:

"You did a great job today, but remember to keep it up."

If you don't mess with me and behave yourself, you'll get your share of the benefits.

However, those who oppose me usually don't have a good ending; look at that scoundrel Xu.

I've given him many chances, but he always insists on provoking me. Once or twice, I won't let him do it a third time.

They were all mute, yet they still wouldn't behave. Now they've ended up like this; it's not my fault."

Da Ya shuddered as she looked at Xu Qing's smiling face.

Could it be that she's the one who made Xu Wulai mute...?

Da Ya thought back to today's trial at the yamen, where the magistrate had exiled Xu Wulai and his group of people to 3000 li.

Xu Wulai couldn't speak or write, so he couldn't even defend himself. He kept making "ah ah ah" sounds in a panic.

But no one paid him any attention. The magistrate ruled directly that if she had been confused that night and hadn't come to tell Xu Qing...

Perhaps today in court, she and that scoundrel will meet the same fate.

Exile for 3000 li is not a death sentence, but worse than a death sentence. A woman like her would only die faster on the road to exile.

At this moment, Da Ya was truly afraid of Xu Qing.

Daya respectfully lowered her head and knelt back in her original position:

“I have remembered everything the boss said, and I will never have any other improper thoughts in the future.”

I just want to marry someone I love, work in a workshop, and live a good life.

Xu Qing then helped Daya up: "You're alright, why are you kneeling? It's good that you know. Keep the money safe."

If anything happens, you can tell your auntie, and she will definitely help you.

Daya tucked the silver into her bosom, but dared not speak to Xu Qing as a relative: "Master, I'll go back now."

Xu Qing waved his hand, indicating that she understood. Da Ya lowered her head, tightly clutching the silver in front of her chest, and slowly retreated.

She only relaxed after leaving the Xu family's gate and reaching the workshop entrance.

Xu Qing is indeed terrifying; he has a smiling face, yet he can say such frightening things.

She was once again glad that she had made the right decision that night.

When Da Ya thought back to that night, she ran to Xu Qing's house and told him. Xu Qing was just as nonchalant, as if he didn't care.

They only said that she knew, and even personally drew a route map for her to give to that group of people. As long as she cooperated and captured those people, they would give her 50 taels of silver.

She originally wanted 100 taels, but seeing Xu Qing's expression, she didn't dare to haggle anymore; 50 taels would be enough.
