He thought it was already very fragrant, but he didn't expect it to be even more delicious!
Hee Qiqi couldn't stop after he ate the first skewer.
"Alright, if you want to eat, come again. It's not good to eat too much at once." Looking at the rapidly decreasing skewers on the plate, Bai Zhiling stopped her from continuing her attack on the barbecue.
Hee Qiqi retracted his hand reluctantly, while the two of them wiped their hands and went into the house.
"Wait for me to go wash. I smell all over."
When she came back, Hee Qiqi was leaning on the soft seat and looking at her.
"No matter what, you have to put on an act. You just came out and you're already so happy. Be careful of others calling you a forced smile."
Strangely, this was only the second time the two of them had interacted with each other. However, they were like close friends who had been friends for many years. Sometimes, friendship might not always be based on time.
Bai Zhiling and Hee Qiqi were the same. If they saw each other correctly, their relationship would deepen quickly.
"What do you think you are doing, crying like a river out of grief? His acting was clumsy, so he decided not to embarrass himself. "It's you, you dare come to my place now, are you not afraid of being locked up by County Princess when you go back?"
Hee Qiqi was still a young girl that hadn't left the pavilion yet, so he was bound to have a bad reputation if he came into contact with an abandoned woman like her.
"Can't I be locked up for a lifetime? I thought someone might be having a hard time thinking about it, but it seems like I was overthinking it. Yinyin originally wanted to come and visit you, but her house was not peaceful either. She asked me to bring this over to you. "
Hee Qiqi took out a bag with lotus flowers embroidered on it from his sleeve.
"Thank her for me."
"Speaking of which, what plans do you have for the future?"
Bai Zhiling had originally planned to directly leave the capital once she revealed her Cloud King's Manor, but now, she had changed her mind!
"Not many people are waiting to see my joke right now. I just want to stay here and let them know that my joke can't be seen just because I want to!"
Hee Qiqi saw her firm expression and guessed that she already had a plan in mind, so he was relieved.
After chatting for a while, Hee Qiqi left as it was getting late.
The next day, Bai Zhiling woke up early.
Among the dowry of the Jiang family, there were two shops in the capital.
One was located in the second most bustling street of the capital, while the other was located in the middle of the street.
However, most of the people on that street sold silk jewelry, and the profits were still quite considerable. Only the few years that Madam Huang had owned a shop showed that they didn't make any money at all, so they obviously knew how much money Madam Huang and the shopkeeper had taken from it.
The other shop was not so well-situated, but Bai Zhiling liked it better, because the street where it was located was almost entirely filled with medical and pharmacy stores.
She had already decided to do her old job. The first step was to open a clinic in the capital.
Cough, set a small goal for yourself first. For example, earn a thousand taels of silver first …
Cough cough!
Within the Little Zhou Country, females could also go out and feed their families. It was just that they were looked down upon more, but it wasn't because they didn't stand at a certain height and were revered by others. However, that kind of situation was extremely rare.
It could be seen how difficult Bai Zhiling's next step would be.
"Lee Qing, come with me and have a look."
"Yes."
Bai Zhiling put down her hair. She was single right now, so why did she need to comb a woman's hair for a scum of a man!
As she was dressed like a commoner, Bai Zhiling wearing a gauze hat wasn't too eye-catching walking on the street.
As the center of Little Zhou Country, economics and politics, the capital was still very lively.
As soon as he reached the street of jewellery shops, he saw that there were people standing in front of every shop, waiting for customers to arrive.
Bai Zhiling glanced at her own shop. There were people standing outside as well, and it looked like business was going well.
In such a situation, when the shopkeeper came to report to her, he actually said that the store didn't make any money every year. He really took her for a fool.
"Let's go take a look."
"This lady is here to buy a hairpin. What is she here to buy?" Take a look around. While the things in our shop are not the best on this street, they are definitely not inferior to those in other shops. If you have any that you want, then this little one will give it a try. "
"Listening to this little mouth slip away." "I'll take a look around first. If I see someone I like, I'll call you."
"Alright."
Bai Zhiling seemed to be looking at the jewelry, but her eyes were paying attention to the situation within the shop.
She had been standing here for a quarter of an hour when three people walked in. One of them had bought something.
By the time she stood there for half an hour, three people had already bought something.
When she was done reading, Bai Zhiling bought a pair of silver earrings and paid the bill before leaving.
Seeing Bai Zhiling leave just like that, Lee Qing didn't say anything and followed her honestly.
An hour later, they arrived at the street of the pharmacy.
Compared to the other streets, it was a little colder here, but there were quite a few shops with many people.
"Miss, that is our shop."
Bai Zhiling followed Lee Qing's hand and looked over. Her shop was actually quite well-situated and was also around the middle section. Compared to the other doctors, the shop seemed a lot colder.
After the two of them entered, they discovered that the doctor and the acolyte were both dozing off.
"Doctor, doctor."
Lee Qing went up to call for someone.
The doctor rubbed his eyes and looked at them unhappily.
"Are you here to see a patient?"
As soon as the doctor opened his mouth, Bai Zhiling smelled a pungent stench.
This person's mouth stinks. As a doctor, he didn't pay attention to his own body, so how could he know about his treatment?
Bai Zhiling restrained her emotions and said, "I feel like my head is swelling and my chest is uncomfortable. I want the doctor to show me what's wrong with me."
"The doctor looked at Bai Zhiling's face, which was covered by a veil, and narrowed her small eyes." "En, it's not comfortable. Let me cut your pulse first."
Bai Zhiling stretched out her wrist. Lee Qing came forward and spread a handkerchief on her hand. The doctor was unhappy, but he didn't say anything.
"Un, you really do have some symptoms of chills. You said that your chest is stuffy, so follow me in. I'll examine it to see what's going on."
As he said this, a lustful look flashed across his eyes. Lee Qing was already angry, but Bai Zhiling told him to stay put.
"Alright." She stood up and followed him to the back room.
"Ah!" "Murder!
After a while, the sound of a doctor slaughtering a pig came from inside.
Lee Qing rushed in and saw that the person was stepped on by Bai Zhiling.
The drowsy acolyte was obviously frightened, and just as he was about to scream out loud, he heard Bai Zhiling's cold shout. Tell your manager to come and see me! "
The acolyte nodded in fear and quickly went to the storekeeper, who was still sleeping in the back.
"What's the matter? Don't you know I hate people arguing when I'm sleeping?"
"You want to sleep? Today, I'll let you go back and get some sleep! "
