Divorcing your wife might feel good for a moment, but seeing me make money will make you regret it f
Chapter 224 It’s a chicken and a egg
The county magistrate finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After the incident last time, he never expected that the Xu family had the support of the Minister of Justice.
Afterwards, he made some inquiries and learned that Xu's adopted daughter was actually the niece of the Minister of Justice.
He was filled with regret.
He originally had a good relationship with the Xu family. If they hadn't fallen out, he could have earned a lot of money every month by working with the Xu family's workshop.
Perhaps we can even befriend the Cui family, and being transferred back to the capital will be just around the corner.
Now, things have turned out badly.
However, since Mrs. Xu can forgive his son, he might still have a chance.
Zhou Chenggong was overjoyed to receive Xu Qing's confirmation.
He immediately wanted to go with Xu Qing.
He heard it from the advisor.
Aunt Xu's family has a two-wheeled vehicle that can carry people and rides, and it runs very fast.
He's going to see for himself today!
The magistrate said, "Gong'er, go and prepare some gifts. Do you intend to go to Aunt Xu's house empty-handed?"
"That's right!" Zhou Chenggong said hurriedly, "Aunt Xu, wait for me here for a moment, I'll be right back, please don't leave on your own!"
The moment she finished speaking, the person vanished without a trace, and Xu Qing didn't even get a chance to refuse.
Old Deng clearly still had something to say; her acceptance of Zhou Chenggong didn't mean she truly forgave him!
"So old and still so reckless."
The magistrate spoke words of reproach, but his tone was full of tenderness.
"Madam Xu, I've successfully sent you away because I still have something to tell you."
You don't need to be on guard; this is about you.
Wang Daba, the son of the prefect of Haiqu, came to me the other day and said he wanted me to deal with you.
I refused, and he stormed off. He probably hasn't given up yet; you'd better watch out.
Xu Qing asked curiously, "How does he want you to deal with me?"
The magistrate said in a strange tone:
"He asked me to invite you to the yamen for tea, the finest pre-rain Longjing tea."
I told him I didn't have anything like that, and he said he did and he would give it to me.
All I need to do is call you over.
What's wrong with this tea is unknown, but it probably doesn't contain anything good.
What did you do to offend him? Haiqu is quite far from here.
He went to such lengths to come all this way to invite you for tea.
Xu Qing seemed to be deep in thought, never expecting that this "turtle bastard" was so hateful.
In the novels and TV dramas she used to read, all she saw were stories about adding aphrodisiacs to tea.
This is used to ruin someone's reputation.
"There's nothing special about it. It's just that he fell in love with me at first sight, but couldn't have me, so he tried to use methods to make me submit to him."
But Your Honor, please think about it. I am just a widow with several children at home.
He is the prefect's beloved son; how could I possibly be worthy of him?
Even if I enter the door, I am still considered inferior.
Although he promised me the position of equal wife, how could his parents be willing?
Moreover, there will be noble ladies from high-ranking families joining the family in the future.
"Sigh, I don't want to live that kind of life."
Xu Qing spoke with heartfelt sincerity.
Since he's so unethical, what do I have to worry about?
She refused to believe that it would be shameful for her to talk about it.
The county magistrate was petrified on the spot.
He never expected there to be such a shocking inside story.
He then asked why the young master Wang had asked him to invite Xu Qing for tea and to prepare a quiet, secluded room where he wouldn't be disturbed.
He racked his brains but never imagined that these two things could be connected in this way...
It has to be the young people who know how to have fun.
Xu Qing was satisfied to see the county magistrate looking as if he had been struck by lightning.
Just then, Zhou Chenggong returned with his things, and Xu Qing took him away.
Inside the carriage, Zhou Chenggong asked Xu Qing with great confusion:
"Aunt Xu, is it because my father just apologized to you that you didn't forgive him?"
"Why do you say that?" Xu Qing asked.
As Zhou Chenggong recalled what his father looked like, he continued:
"I said goodbye to him, and he ignored me no matter how many times I called him. He seemed absent-minded and lost in thought."
Every time my mother argues with him and won't let him into the house, he has this same expression.
Xu Qingan chuckled to herself; it seemed this matter had greatly shocked the county magistrate.
......
That day, Xu Jian reported to Xu Qing:
"Little sister, the number of milk tea reservations at many restaurants in Dukou Town has suddenly decreased a lot recently."
I asked the shopkeepers, and they all said it was because the weather was getting colder and fewer people were drinking milk tea.
You mentioned before that you could sell hot milk tea in winter, so can you start producing hot milk tea now?
Xu Qing was busy checking the medicinal herb orders in Datong Town when he heard this, and he stopped what he was doing.
"Okay, from now on, when the milk tea is ready, just wrap the wooden buckets used to transport the milk tea with cotton blankets."
That way, it won't get cold when it's delivered to town. You can then tell the managers of the various restaurants.
You can reheat it yourself if it gets cold; it won't affect the taste of the milk tea.
Xu Jian left happily.
The next day, he went to find Xu Qing again with his head hanging low.
"Little sister, no, the shopkeepers in Ferry Town said the milk tea was already cold by the time it arrived."
The customers are waiting for their drinks, and there's not enough time to heat them up, so they're now saying they don't want milk tea anymore...
Xu Qing sensed something was amiss: "What about the restaurants in Datong Town?"
Xu Jian replied, "After the shopkeepers in Datong Town heard your method, their sales improved, and each shop ordered an extra 100 servings."
Xu Qing suddenly remembered what Zhou Chenggong's father had told her a few days ago.
Could it be that Wang Da Ba is behind this?
The county magistrate of Datong Town didn't help him; he went to Dukou Town instead.
"Brother, leave this to me. You help me with the orders for the herbal medicine shops in Datong Town."
"Little sister, tell me what you can do, and I'll take care of it."
Xu Jian pointed to the paper and pen on the table, frowning and saying painfully:
“I get a headache just looking at these things, and you still want me to do the accounting.”
Xu Qing said helplessly, "You're going to be a father soon, why don't you learn these things? How are you going to teach your child after he's born?"
Xu Jian chuckled and replied, "Let Hui Niang teach me."
Xu Qing disagreed, saying, "Mothers should educate their children, but shouldn't fathers also educate their children?"
Brother, you shouldn't think like that. Your sister-in-law has already gone through enough hardship during her pregnancy and childbirth.
I also have to take care of the household chores for you, so you'd better share the burden more.
"Little sister, am I your real brother or is Hui Niang your real sister?"
Xu Jian complained:
"I only said that I should let Hui Niang teach the children, and you reacted like this to me."
I didn't say I wouldn't help...
I'm the one who loves my wife the most!
"Ugh, I can't reason with you. I'm right, okay?"
Xu Qing shook her head and walked outside.
She disguised herself, drove an oxcart, and headed towards the ferry town.
When she arrived at the ferry town, she randomly chose a restaurant.
"Waiter, I'd like a bowl of milk tea."
The waiter greeted them warmly:
"Sir, it's cold today, and drinking milk tea will only make you colder."
Our new jasmine milk is delicious and fragrant, with the aroma of jasmine flowers and the sweetness of milk.
This is perfect for a lady like you.
Most importantly, it's hot! One bowl will make you feel comfortable from head to toe!
