The woman remained unmoved as she continued to lie there calmly, the iciness on her wrist reminding Mo Yuying of the cruel reality … She's dead!
His grief seemed to have infected the two Three Lives Stone which were originally one entity. The two Three Lives Stone vibrated violently as it let out a buzzing sound. Mo Yuxian touched the Three Lives Stone on his waist and said in grief, "Did you feel my longing as well? "But why haven't you come to find me for my Zhen'er?"
His mind went back to the happy days they had been together, and he read the words from the song Yao Sisi had sung.
Qiu Shui gazed at the wind and sighed.
Swallows will not return to their disciples.
After going through all the mountains and seas, he saw all the caves and the clouds.
When the maple fell, the marriage fate dissipated.
Tears rolled down his cheeks.
The tears of the Inky Jade Streams dripped onto the woman's ice-cold wrist, making a 'pu pu pu' sound. It was as if this was a song that came from hell.
As night approached, the scorching heat was greatly reduced.
"Big Brother, hurry up!" In the bustling streets, she gave up her carriage and walked as fast as she could.
Yao Shichang caught up to Yao Sisi, "Little Sis, we already have the ice. It's getting late, I think we should go home."
"Big brother, what's the price of carrying a hundred catties of ice cubes?" Yao Sisi carefully examined the piece of ice in her hand. This piece of ice was like a modern certificate. She had exchanged the tokens from Shopkeeper Cui's hands for a total of ten pieces of ice. Five of them had already been sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Yao Shichang said, "The normal 100 Jin ice on the market costs 10 taels of silver. If this Ice Pavilion needs twenty silver taels, then even so, their supply of ice is still insufficient. " The little abacus in Yao Sisi's heart cracked open, her eyes twinkling brightly as she became sluggish all of a sudden.
Yao Shichang didn't understand, so he thought he had said something wrong to make his little sister unhappy. Thus, he asked in concern, "What's wrong?"
"Brother, this means that five hundred Jin of ice is only worth a hundred taels!" Yao Sisi thought for a moment before she asked, "What if we start with a lower price and make it two hundred taels?" Yao Shichang pondered for a moment before nodding with certainty. However, his doubts only grew greater, "Little sister, what are you planning on doing?"
"Hehe, I won't tell you this for now, but do you know where the most beggars are in the city?"
"I know this big brother, but little sister, what are you trying to do?" Yao Shichang walked up to Yao Sisi and seriously looked at her.
Yao Sisi was beaming with joy as she patted Yao Shichang. She giggled, "Big Brother, why do your eyes look so much like you're looking at a criminal who walked down the wrong path? "Who do you think I am? I have a very high awareness of the situation and am not a world's nationalist, so how could I stand going against the law?"
Yao Shichang couldn't help but laugh in spite of his teasing. He calmed down a little, but his aching stomach still couldn't rest easy as he said, "That's good, but little sister, if you don't tell me what you want to know, then big brother won't answer your question."
Yao Sisi thought to herself, "How come this guy's IQ suddenly went up and he knows about the Equivalent Exchange?" But on the surface, she said, "Big Brother, I already said it was a pleasant surprise, how can I tell you now?"
I must want to donate the extra ice to the beggars for a cool summer, Yao Shichang thought. Overjoyed, he told Yao Sisi that the place with the most beggars in this dream was Ten Thousand Blessings Lane.
If Yao Sisi knew Yao Shichang was thinking this, she would probably be angered to the point of bleeding. Ignoring the fact that they didn't have an ice storage cellar, just looking at the sheer number of them was enough to make her speechless.
Yao Sisi memorized the "Blessed Lane" in her heart. Tomorrow, she would begin her path of making money and create her own business legend.
When the two of them returned home, the Prime Minister's family had already been waiting for a long time. When they saw that the Prime Minister's wife had finished her chattering, Yao Jiajia's grumbling, and the Prime Minister's praising, they happily ate their meal.
"I laugh proudly, laugh proudly!"
Yuan Bao walked in with a washbasin and asked Yao Sisi, "Miss, what's making you so happy?"
Yao Sisi waved at Yuanbao, "Come here, come here!" Yuanbao put the towel in the water and soaked it, scooped it up, wrung it out, and handed it out.
She carelessly wiped her face and threw the towel into the washbasin. While Yuanbao was frowning, she grabbed the ingot and sat on the chair. She said with a big smile, "Yuanbao, we are going to be rich soon. In the future, both of us will be able to live the lives of little rich women."
Yuanbao replied, "Miss, aren't we very rich already?"
"How can that be the same? This money was earned by second brother, not by ourselves. Can you spend it when you want to?" Yao Sisi patted Yuanbao on the shoulder and continued, "Yuanbao, you better not block the dream of getting promoted and making a fortune just because you're a woman, do you understand?"
"But Miss, the ingot is only a servant girl, how could it possibly be promoted to an official in the future?" Yuan Bao appeared to be feeling inferior.
Looking at the discouraged Yuan Bao, Yao Sisi couldn't help but sulk her face. "Raise your head, straighten your chest, and look at you calling me Miss!" Let me tell you, in this world, there is nothing impossible, nothing impossible, nothing impossible. Furthermore, when I see you as a servant, as long as you do not look down on yourself, you will never be inferior. You know what? "
Yuanbao was very touched. His eyes turned slightly red as he smiled sweetly at Yao Sisi. "Thank you, Miss. Yuanbao will always support Miss. As long as Miss says the ingot will be done."
Yao Sisi covered Yuanbao's mouth and raised her voice, "Stop! Go on, it sounds to me as if I've turned you into a loyal dog. Yuanbao, you aren't living for me, you're living for yourself. You don't need to become someone else's tool of action, and in the future, let me hear your idiotic words.
Yuanbao nodded obediently, but in her heart, she only wanted to say: I only live for the young miss. But her mouth moved but she didn't dare to say it.
"Well, I'll tell you where we'll start our first pot of gold. Yuanbao, come out with me early tomorrow morning. Remember to wake me up. "
Yuan Bao stood up and replied, "Yes, Miss. Shall we wash our feet first?" Without waiting for Yao Sisi's answer, she poured the water into the basin and brought it over. Yao Sisi washed her feet in a very cooperative manner. She was really happy today. Thinking of the bright future ahead of her, she couldn't help but laugh.
On the morning of the second day, Yao Sisi purposely put on makeup. She looked much more ordinary than before. After that, she and Yuanbao quietly slipped away through the back door. Ye Zichen walked quickly towards the Ten Thousand Blessings Lane.
The alley was not as overbearing as the name, it was a scam! This was too darned! From beginning to end, the alley was less than a hundred meters wide and less than half a meter wide. There were no chickens, no ducks, no geese; no door on either side of the house was open to the alley; every step was a broken bowl, every step was a nest of grass.
"Miss, please!"
"Give me some more!"
"The child is sick."
There were old and young beggars, roughly fifty to sixty people. They surrounded Yao Sisi and Yuanbao in three layers. All of them were in rags, looking malnourished. There were also a few seemingly sick children and elderly people.
Yao Sisi immediately felt sorry for them, but after thinking about how they didn't bring much money with them when they came out, and how they even needed to rent a space with such a limited amount of money, she couldn't help but feel a little awkward. However, they definitely couldn't afford to delay any longer with their illness, it was fine if they didn't run into each other, as long as they caught sight of her, they would have to deal with it, so they cleared their throats and started a long speech: Everyone be quiet, everyone be quiet!
