After being reborn as a widow, the mistress of the Hou family remarried a powerful official

Chapter 4 Shop Planning
The old lady over there was still holding her son and chatting about family matters, while here Ke Yiqing had already rushed back to the Hou Mansion.

"Manager Li, have you done what you asked you to do last time?"

"Madam, everything you ordered is here."

Ke Yiqing felt much more at ease after taking out these banknotes, but just this amount of money was still not enough.

But money is not a big problem. What she lacks now is a good helper to do things for her. She did have one in her previous life, but she doesn’t know what he is like now...

Thinking like this, Ke Yiqing came to the backyard of the handyman.

"Oh, why are you here, madam?" The person in charge came over quickly and asked.

"Just stay busy, I'll find mine."

"Yes Yes Yes."

She passed by these men in rough clothes and short jackets, and stopped in front of a man with an upright appearance. He was thin and had a bit of a scholar's temperament. Among such a group of rough men, he stood out.

"What's your name."

"Back to Madam, the villain's name is Li Wei."

"Li Wei? It's a good name. You can work with me from now on. Are you willing?"

"The villain is naturally willing."

Leading Li Wei, Ke Yiqing returned to her house with satisfaction. This man had been her right-hand man in her previous life. It can be said that without Li Wei's help, the Pingyang Marquis Mansion would not be able to return to the top of the eight aristocratic families by herself. .

She remembered that in her last life, Li Wei's mother suffered from a serious illness, and treatment required a lot of money. Unfortunately, he was just a handyman at that time and had no money for treatment, so his mother died like this.

Such a strong man still bursts into tears every time he mentions his mother. If there is a chance in this life, she will definitely help.

"Is your mother okay?"

Li Wei looked surprised, but his eyes quickly turned red.

Ke Yiqing had no reason to ignore an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time, "Here are ten taels of silver. You can use it to treat your mother's illness. If it's not enough, I won't ask for it."

"Madam, little one..."

"When you do something for me, it's like paying off a debt."

Li Wei's throat was sore and his mother was seriously ill. As a son, he was naturally anxious. But he also knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch. He cupped his fists and said, "I'm really stupid. I don't know what my wife wants me to do."

Ke Yiqing chuckled, knowing that he was anxious, so he sent someone to see his mother first, and then talked to him properly when she came back.

After all, what she had to do was really not urgent for a while.

When Yu Jin saw him for the first time, she was a little worried, "Madam, aren't you afraid that he will take the money and run away?"

"He will not."

Before employing someone in her previous life, she had inquired about it. Li Wei's father had been a prostitute, but unfortunately he was pedantic and did not know how to adapt. He had been depressed and frustrated. In the end, he was framed by his colleagues for stealing and breaking promises, and finally died in prison in vain.

As his son, Li Wei hated others saying he was treacherous, so he would never do such a thing.

Although he has a rigid father, he is capable of both literary and military skills and is very resourceful and strategic.

As she expected, within half a day, Li Wei came to the door. He couldn't afford to kneel down.

"The young one is willing to do everything for his wife."

Ke Yiqing helped him up, "How is your mother?"

Li Wei looked moved, "The medical officer said it's mainly due to severe physical damage. If you take good supplements, it won't be a serious problem."

After hearing this, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it would be great if she could save the person.

"This is the deed of sale for you to enter the Marquis' Mansion. Take it and do whatever you want with it."

"This……"

Ke Yiqing chuckled. It was easy to add icing on the cake, but difficult to provide help in times of need. She wanted Li Wei to be completely locked in the same boat with her. "I have 500 taels of silver here. You can use it to build a warehouse for me. Remember, the house needs to be bigger and it must not leak."

Li Wei couldn't believe it. He had never seen so much money in his life, and he couldn't believe that Ke Yiqing believed in him so much and gave him so much money at once.

"Madam, I dare not hide something..."

"I know about your father. He was wrongly accused."

The man had tears in his eyes, "Do you believe me?"

Ke Yiqing smiled calmly, "Don't doubt the people you employ, and don't use the people you doubt."

Li Wei calmed down and said, "I dare to ask, what is this warehouse used to store?"

"Food and medicinal materials."

The war in Jingnan has just subsided, and the civil strife lasted not long. However, Jingnan is an important food transportation official. Everyone thought that Jingnan had been calmed down. What they didn't expect was that it would break out again this year. This time, they Hijacked officialdom.

But everyone in the imperial court didn't take it seriously, and the war broke out again. Jingnan was pacified, but the food was gone. Shengjing felt the taste of famine for the first time.

As for the medicinal materials, the cold epidemic was also brought by the refugees outside the city. The disease is not difficult to cure. You just need to take some medicinal materials that warm and nourish qi and blood. However, the refugees came in all at once, and the early symptoms of the cold epidemic were the same as those of wind cold. It wasn't until it spread that it was discovered that it was already too late.

With the spread of famine and disease, Shengjing suddenly changed from a land of wealth on earth to a hell of hell.

She is a weak woman with only so much ability, so she can save as many as she can.

"Li Wei, you have to handle this matter more secretly."

Li Wei's mind turned around and he had an idea in his mind, "I have a friend in the Yamen. He has a few idle houses. He is very unlucky. People have died and the location is in a remote location. I don't know if Madam would mind."

"No matter how unlucky Madam is, I can still control it. Li Wei, if you follow me, you will make a lot of money and do big things, so don't worry and do it boldly!"

Li Wei put the banknote in his arms, turned around and said hesitantly: "Madam, I'm just a rough servant, why are you willing to use me?"

"You just entered the house not long ago, and what you don't have is exactly what I need."

"Madam, don't worry, Li Wei will only listen to your orders from now on."

After all, he is the one she likes.

After sending people away, Yu Jin finally couldn't help it anymore, "Madam, there is no shortage of grain stores and medicine stores in the capital now. What are you buying and storing these for?"

Ke Yiqing shook his head. In the previous life, everyone, including the Holy One, thought like this. It was precisely this kind of thinking that caused famine in Shengjing.

"Yu Jin, please don't reveal even a word about what happened today."

Although she didn't know why, Yu Jin still nodded, but as the day got late, worry appeared on her face. Master Yan had a weird temperament and was uncertain. If her wife didn't go, she might...

"Madam, the people from the Liyuan just came to ask questions. Are you serious about not going?"

Ke Yiqing chuckled. She was asking for trouble when she went there. In her previous life, she was left hanging there. How could this person remember her old love when she had a new one?

In her previous life, she was a widow but was sent to his bed by her mother-in-law. It was already miserable enough, but what was even worse was that she actually fell in love with this bitch. After knowing that he had a new love, she went to the opera house without overestimating her abilities. I've looked for him many times, but found nothing except Ruan Lingling's humiliation.

It wasn't until this person left Beijing again a few months later that he was ordered to leave Beijing, and then he thought of her. It was a pity that by that time she had already lost heart and aborted the child.

Because of this, this bitch almost wanted to kill her.

How could that person in my memory be able to speak so well?

Oh, he told her to wait and get pregnant again when she came back, and told her not to think about escaping, saying that she would never be able to escape in this life.

Thinking about the past, Ke Yiqing was still heartbroken. At that time, she was still a young girl in Huaichun, and she naively thought that Yan Ming said those words because he loved her, but now she has no idea that those words were clearly motivated by possessiveness.

Hey, what kind of love is this?It's her own fault.

She didn't want to live such a miserable life in this life.
