Lu Qing was not pretentious, and a small face showed a proud look in an instant: it was made by Lao Tzu!
With a low smile, Xue Yan has begun to figure out how to sell these salt to the major aristocratic families in Hedong and Taiyuan. Since he despises their military background, what about another merchant? As long as the money reaches their pockets, mind him!
When Xue Yan left, Lu Qing raised her head and took a bite on Yu Mingchuan's chin. That's good. Give Xue Yan more benefits, and he won't miss her anymore. He can maintain his friendship with Yu Mingchuan's brothers.
Only by helping each other can they go further.
Autumn leaves are floating and the weather is getting colder.
Li Zhi looked at the dead leaves in the flower bed in the courtyard and remained stunned for a long time.
Her letter should have been sent out, but the Li family has not responded. Did they really give up her? Or did something happen that she didn't know?
Except that she saw Yu Mingchuan and Han Bai together on the Beida river last time, she never saw Yu Mingchuan again, but there was no shortage of food and clothing.
Every three days, someone brings firewood, rice, oil, salt, money, food and clothing. Although it is far from her at home, it is not bad. After all, Peiyu is also using these things.
Is yumingchuan going to hang her all the time?
With so many questions, Li Zhi couldn't sit still.
Put on the unique skirt that only reaches to the ankle and put on sheepskin boots, Li Zhi took two servant girls to Peiyu's residence.
Pei Yu always knows something she can't find out.
Through several streets, Li Zhi was a little confused. The streets are much cleaner than when she first came. She rarely saw horse dung and cow dung. Many people's doors are paved with neat slate.
But soon she knew the reason. A car specialized in pulling dung walked through the streets. When she saw where there was cow dung and horse dung, she soon shoveled it up, and then shoveled it up with plant ash powder again, so that there was no trace on the ground.
Two little servant girls passed by the dung cart with their noses covered, but Li Zhi didn't.
If she wants to live in this place, she must adapt to the environment here. Yumingchuan was a man like a bright moon in the air. She can bear it if he can be with civilians in such a dirty place.
When I arrived at Peiyu's residence, I found Peiyu playing with glass beads with several servant girls in the yard.
Bursts of laughter continued.
Li Zhi suddenly became envious. If yu Mingchuan married her as soon as possible, could she also show such an undisguised smile.
"To my sister, you're here. Look, are these glass beads beautiful?"
Peiyu blinked a pair of transparent eyes and handed Li Zhi some glass beads with a smile.
It's really beautiful. Two are slightly yellow, one is reddish and several are green. They are all crystal clear, which is somewhat different from the glazed ornaments they used to see.
"My husband gave me a large handful of glazed beads yesterday. If you like them, I'll give you some as well." then Peiyu stuffed the glazed beads into Li Zhi's hand.
"How can I do that? It's valuable. It's from childe Xue again. I can't accept it properly." Li Zhi quickly refused. Although these beads are really beautiful, they are really too valuable.
"Where, now all these little girls have one. There are many soldiers in the auxiliary barracks, all of which are made by themselves." Peiyu still stuffed these glass beads to Li Zhi.
Li Zhi was stunned. She had only seen such a transparent glass object, or a glass cup her father had always treasured. It was said to have been obtained from a Roman place farther away than the western regions.
Why do the auxiliary soldiers here also make this thing?
Seeing Li Zhi's surprise, Pei Yu smiled more happily.
"The glass making skills are all awarded by Han Bai's younger brother to the people and auxiliary soldiers here. Our craftsmen have also learned. When we return to Hedong, we can also open a glass workshop."
Pei Yu has no hostility to Han Bai now. Xue Yan secretly told her about salt making, but it's confidential and naturally can't tell Li Zhi.
Another thing that shocked her was that Han Bai was actually a woman. Now he was Yu Mingchuan's wife. Even Xue Yan told her that he had the idea of accepting Lu Qing before, but now it's gone.
At first, Pei Yu tangled for a while, but she remembered the deep love between Lu Qing and Yu Mingchuan, and knew that Lu Qing had absolutely no mind for her husband. Why should she ask for trouble.
Moreover, Xue Yan's ability to be so frank with her shows that he began to be devoted to her. Even such secrets can be shared with her. What else is she dissatisfied with.
At this time, Li Zhi held one hand tighter and tighter. The glass beads began to creak in his palm because of the pressure, but Li Zhi didn't feel it at all.
It's that Han Bo again.
"Sister Yu, I see you admire Han Bai now and don't care about what happened at the beginning?" Li Zhi pretended to smile and asked about Peiyu.
"If such a capable man is really old with my husband, why not? Besides, my husband has nothing to do with him now. Why do I care so much?"
Pei Yu's eyes flashed slightly. She couldn't reveal half of Lu Qing's details, especially for Li Zhi who wanted to marry Yu Mingchuan. Xue Yan told her not to get so close to Li Zhi.
When they said this, they were still... Thinking about Xue Yan's bravery last night, Peiyu's face turned red.
Click, a slight sound, a glass bead broke.
"Sister Yu is really broad-minded. I won't bother her if she remembers that she still has something to do. In addition, your two girls should stay here. My sister has found someone to buy girls and servants. She should be here today."
After that, Li Zhi left without looking back.
The smile on Pei Yu's face gradually faded away, and her original bright eyes became deeper and deeper.
When Li Zhi arrived at the door, he loosened his hand holding the glass beads. Glass fragments scattered all over the ground. Two pieces pierced into her palm and dyed her palm red.
"Hehe... I, Li Zhi, have fallen so far. Yumingchuan, why do you trample on my sincerity so much?"
Striding out of the area, Li Zhi went back to her small yard alone.
She didn't ask someone to buy a servant girl, but she didn't want to see Peiyu's people again. Her good sisters no longer stand on her side. She's not a fool. Naturally, she can see it.
In the future, she will fight alone. I just hope the Li family can send someone over as soon as possible, otherwise she can only find another way out. Remembering his father's confession on the day he left home, a cold light flashed through Li Zhi's eyes.
After counting some belongings in the inner room, Li Zhi changed into a more simple clothes and walked out of his residence again.
