Chapter 43

Li Erya smiled, she was not stingy, after all it was worth investing in the future number one scholar, but the money had to be used for other purposes, so she handed over two taels of silver.

She had to buy some things with the remaining money, and if she didn't give it, Mrs. Shen and Shen Qingrou wouldn't say anything, but Li Erya still explained.

"You can keep the money you earn, and the family does not lack your money." Mrs. Shen probably understood what she was doing, and said in a friendly voice, "It's enough if you have the heart."

"Studying costs money, and I will work hard to make money." Li Erya nodded and turned to weed the vegetable garden.

When the sun went down, Su Yue came back from collecting herbs, greeted them outside the door and went back.

Immediately after Sun Ji came back, two large bowls of jelly noodles were sold for 260 yuan. He wanted to give some to Li Erya, but Li Erya asked him to pay off the debt first.

"How did this happen?" Sun Ji looked at Mrs. Shen with some embarrassment.

"If I tell you to hold it, you can take it." Mrs. Shen knew his difficulties, so naturally she wouldn't argue with him.

"Come early tomorrow, and I'll make more for you. You can go to the city to sell it, sell it to a restaurant, or sell it yourself." Li Erya said and drove the person away.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, Sun Ji still had so much money in his pocket, so he had to go home first.

He only used less than half of the load of fairy grass he brought, because there was not enough alkaline water, and the rest could continue to make jelly tomorrow, and the alkaline water was enough.

Because making alkaline water took up a tank, Shen Qingrou felt a little sour seeing her busy schedule, and asked her why she was so kind to Sun Ji.

"Okay? It's just a matter of little effort. He has fairy grass, and I just happen to know how to make jelly." Li Erya covered her with a linen cloth carefully, and answered her question seriously.

"By the way, how do you know how to make jelly?"

"I heard what people said."

"..."

Because the bean jelly was selling well, within a month Sun Ji had collected three taels of silver, and the bean jelly was no longer sold, so he specially invited Shen Nanzhou to be a witness, and he wanted to pay off the money owed to Li Laosan.

Shen Nanzhou was not good at refusing, and there was no reason for refusing, so he agreed to his request.

But Shen Muyin was a little worried about his father's dealing with Shangli's third son, that scoundrel, so he told them to wait a while, and went to the study to make some preparations, and then followed them to Qingshui Village.

Sun Ji originally planned to go directly to Li Laosan, but both Shen Nanzhou and Shen Muyin felt that they should go to Li Zheng first, and it would be most appropriate for him to uphold justice.

Li Laosan was still dreaming of the dream of gaining both money and wealth, but Sun Ji had collected three taels of silver in less than a month. He would not believe anything and insisted on getting the money first.

"If you don't believe me, take a look." Sun Ji took out the bulging money bag and opened it for him to see, "Three taels of silver, one tael is not much, they can testify."

"If you want to get the money, take out the IOU first." Shen Muyin blocked Li Laosan's outstretched hand.

"The IOU is gone." Li Laosan rolled his eyes, "Give me the money, if you dare to give it a try, I will sue you."

"Why would you sue him without an IOU?" Shen Nanzhou laughed.

Li Laosan wanted to play a rogue, forcing Sun Ji to pay back the money but refused to show the IOU.

Shen Nanzhou was startled by his rascal appearance, no wonder Sun Ji wanted to testify against him, if he came by himself, he might get into trouble.

Shen Muyin didn't want to argue with him, it was fine if he wanted money, but he had to sign the receipt and promise not to trouble Sun Ji in the future, otherwise Sun Ji would sue him.

Li Laosan looked at the money in Sun Ji's hand, three taels of silver, and it would be a lie to say that he was not tempted. Compared with the three taels of silver, an unclear woman seemed a bit insignificant, and he wished to get the money immediately.

Seeing that the Shen family father and son had blocked all the loopholes for him, he reluctantly went home and took out the IOU. Shen Muyin still insisted that he sign the receipt before he would give the money.

Lizheng also knew about Li Laosan's character, so he had to urge him to sign and make a deposit.

Li Laosan had no choice but to sign and draw a pledge.

Only then did Sun Ji give him the money, tore up the IOU in front of Li Zheng and Shen Nanzhou, and took the receipt.

With a matter on his mind, Sun Ji is very grateful to the Shen family and his son.

If Li Erya hadn't taught him how to make jelly, he wouldn't have earned three taels of silver in such a short period of time, and he was naturally grateful that he didn't have to go to the step of selling himself.

"Ahem." Shen Muyin interrupted him. They were still in Qingshui Village, and there was someone following behind, who didn't know how much the other party heard.

Sun Ji was at a loss for a moment, looked back, only saw a sneaky back, and couldn't help scratching his head in annoyance, he was so happy, he regretted it at this moment, wondering if he would cause trouble to his benefactor, " What are they trying to do?"

"Money touches people's hearts. Naturally, I want to know where your money comes from. You can't hide it. Even if you don't tell me, those children in the school will see it." Shen Nanzhou sighed.

"Then, then, what should we do?" Sun Ji was anxious.

"You've made almost enough money. If you want to give up the jelly recipe, I wonder if it's okay?" Shen Nanzhou thought for a moment, and Li Erya would definitely be involved in this matter. Her status was embarrassing. Bian is not easy to explain.

"As long as I don't embarrass you, I'm fine. Being able to repay the debt is beyond my imagination." Sun Ji lowered his head and made a choice in a moment.

The recipe was originally taught by Li Erya, and he has no reason to monopolize it. In fact, when selling jelly in the city, some restaurants wanted to make jelly recipes, but he refused them all.

Because of this, he also offended the young owner of Jixiang Building, Sun Ji remembered this and told Shen Nanzhou and the others, "Actually, I also know that the recipe for jelly can't be kept secret for long."

Shen Muyin's heart skipped a beat, the owner of Jixianglou and County Magistrate Sun are brother-in-law, and her sister married into the Hu family in her last life, but it's a pity that she married an unlucky man.

County Magistrate Sun can be said to be a good official, and he mostly turned a blind eye to some things about his brother-in-law. The Hu family relied on the relationship with County Magistrate Sun to act quite high-profile and arrogant in Taichuan County.

Sun Ji may have trouble with Hu Shaojing.

But Shen Muyin still told him not to worry, they went back to discuss it, and they would definitely find a way to deal with those who troubled them.

Sun Ji went back with gratitude.

And Shen Nanzhou and Shen Muyin had a discussion, and they had an idea in their minds, so they almost went back to persuade Li Erya.

I thought it would take a lot of effort to persuade her to make Fang Zi public, but she agreed without saying a word.

Li Erya saw that they were dumbfounded, so she shared her thoughts. First, there was no trace of fairy grass around Qingshui Village, and they needed raw materials to make jelly. Say.

Besides, Sun Ji needed money urgently, so she let him take the lead.
