Exile at the beginning: I rule the world by drawing cards

Chapter 38 Deserving it
With someone helping to put away the bowls, Qin Mengshang's side was naturally much more relaxed.

There were more things prepared today, but they were all sold out before the hour. The surrounding vendors watched Qin Meng Shang start to close the stalls, feeling envious and jealous.

It wasn't that her business was so good, it was mainly because a big customer came and bought all the konjac she made in one go, leaving many people behind without tasting it.

Although the person who came to buy konjac today was a different person, he was probably from the same family as the man with the goatee yesterday.

She didn't mind either, since the prescription was still in her hand.

After selling the noodles, Qin Mengshang took off his sleeves and sat on the stone pier to rest. He didn't count the copper coins and put them directly into his pocket.She collected all the money today personally, and she knew it roughly.

Li Bai came back with a stack of bowls in his arms, walking briskly like a spring breeze.

Not to mention, his method of receiving a bowl and giving away a poem really brought a lot of business to Qin Meng Shang.Some literate people heard him write poems, and they were so talented that they immediately ran over and bought a bowl of noodles, just to get that line of poetry.People who don’t understand also buy it. After all, being able to have some relationship with scholars these days is something worth bragging about.

After collecting the things, Li Bai was still thinking about that spicy bite.

Qin Mengshang was a little complacent. Something that could satisfy even the famous Poet Immortal meant it was really good.

"But it's sold out today. I'll treat you to something fresh tomorrow!"

"Very good!"

The market was over, and Qin Meng Shang didn't let Li Bai go back.This man had been wandering around the town as her cousin all morning, so his sudden absence would easily arouse suspicion.

The two of them left the city, but unfortunately, they didn't get on the ox cart.

The river embankment was suspended for the past two days, and Li Gen, who was in charge of driving the cattle carts, had nothing to do. He took Qin Meng Shang's five cents and waited for them at the city gate.

But now that something happened to Li Zhang, Li Gen, who entered as a related household, was naturally kicked out.This morning I happened to catch up with Hedi and went into the city to do some shopping, so I caught a car. Now that I don't have a car, I have to walk back.

Li Bai was holding a wooden bucket in his hand and a basket on his shoulder, looking leisurely and at ease.Looking at the green mountains and green waters, he became very popular in poetry. During the short journey of more than ten miles, he just recited five poems.

Qin Meng Shang is numb. He is worthy of being a person who can occupy half of the poetry world. This emotion is really too rich.

When she approached the village, she asked Li Bai to go back and carried her things into the village alone.

It's not a secret that the Zhou family goes to town to do business. People in the village stopped watching after seeing her a few times. When they met her occasionally, they would say hello and ask, "How is the business today?"

Qin Mengshang often passed by with a few vague sentences, and people who were knowledgeable would naturally not ask more questions.

Zhou Lingqi went to work on the river embankment, but there was no one at home.As soon as she opened the door and walked in, two little guys immediately ran over. Yuanbao, who was usually quiet, came up and grabbed her clothes and walked inside.

"What's wrong?" Qin Mengshang was surprised.

Jinbao ran ahead, jumping up and down trying to attract her attention.

Qin Mengshang walked over and took a look. A small piece of earthy brown cloth fell in front of the door of the hall. It was not something from home. It was obvious that an outsider had been here.

She put away the cloth and touched the heads of the two little ones: "Good children, I will cook meat for you tonight!"

Jinbao barked happily, and Yuanbao also raised his head and howled. Qin Mengshang covered its mouth and said, "Don't reveal your identity."

"." Qin Mengshang went into the house and checked it. The doors and windows were all still in good condition, and there was no sign that the house had been broken into.I think I was discovered by two little guys as soon as I arrived at the door. It seems that my decision to raise a dog was the right one.

The courtyard wall at home is short, so rebuilding it is a big project and needs to be planned slowly.

She was the only one eating at noon, so she simply took a bite and let it go.

Just after clearing away the dishes, Mrs. Ji came to the door.

It was a very hot day. Qin Mengshang hurriedly called people in, "Sister-in-law, why are you here?"

Mrs. Ji didn't beat around the bush and told her what happened this morning directly: "Not long after you went out today, I saw Chen San's wife running out of your house. Fortunately you have two dogs, otherwise there would be no one at home to guard her. You don’t even know it’s a thief!”

Qin Mengshang thought for a while but never thought that someone would be so bold as to come in in broad daylight. Who would have thought that that person was actually Fang?
Ji continued: "But don't worry, Fang didn't take anything. Looking at her appearance, she was probably bitten by a dog, and she deserves it! If Mrs. Chen finds out, she will have to send her back to her parents' home!"

When she was helping in the kitchen today, she originally wanted to tell Mrs. Chen, but she was afraid that she would really become the evil person and have Fang be sent back to her parents' home.

If a married daughter is sent back to her parents' home, her family will be unable to hold her head up for the rest of her life!
Mrs. Ji was angry and angry. After all, she was soft-hearted and did not tell Mrs. Chen in front of her. She only told Qin Mengshang about it so that she could be more careful in the future.

"You still have to lock the door when you go out from now on. You two are not at home. It would be really distressing if you lose something."

"I see, sister-in-law."

The Fang family was guarded by Mrs. Chen, so they probably wouldn't have the guts to steal. After thinking about it, I was probably curious about what kind of food she made.

Qin Mengshang lowered his head and saw Yuan Bao sleeping at his feet. Fang had stolen the chicken but lost the rice, and he didn't know what was going on now.

Naturally, Mrs. Fang didn't dare to say anything, so she sneaked back to Chen's house and got into the house, closing the door tightly, even the grass was blocked out.

Even though Yuan Bao was only a few months old, one bite directly ripped off a layer of Fang's skin.

She hugged her calf and felt so painful that she almost shed tears. Thinking of the two dogs in the Zhou family, she felt angry and resentful, and she did not dare to ask Qin Meng Shang for the money for the medicine.

If her parents-in-law find out about this, she might really be kicked out of her family!

Fang reluctantly crushed the mugwort into pieces and applied it to the wound, then pulled a piece of cloth to wrap it.Mrs. Chen is in charge of the family's money. She can't afford a doctor with the few coins she has, so she has to make do with it.

As soon as the bandage was finished, Mrs. Chen's voice came from outside the house: "What are you doing hiding in the house in broad daylight? The grass in the field has been pulled out?"

Fang's calf was still hurting. Her face turned pale and blue when she heard what Mrs. Chen said. She reluctantly opened the door and said timidly: "Mom, I don't feel well. I'll wait until the weather gets cooler in the afternoon before I go..."

Mrs. Chen glanced at her with an expression like "I knew you were pretending to be diligent."But the sun was really bright at noon, and I didn't plan to let her go now.

Just as she was lifting her legs to leave, she suddenly noticed an extra patch on her trouser legs: "How did you get these trousers?"

Fang's heart skipped a beat and he hesitated: "I accidentally got hooked on a tree branch and tore my mother. I'm going to feed the chickens."

Mrs. Chen stared straight at her daughter-in-law, intuitively telling her that something must have happened today that she couldn't know.

Mrs. Fang felt guilty when she saw the old lady. She ignored her aching calf, grabbed the dustpan and left in a hurry.
