Chapter 873: Becoming a Debtor

He stopped in front of the small door leading to the back house and knocked on it: "I am the eldest son of the Jiang family. I have returned safely from the capital. I have something to give to Xiaomi. Please help convey it to me."

The second aunt and the younger sister-in-law live in the back house. If he dares to go directly into the back house, Su Su will slap him a few times.

With a click, a bowl-sized hole opened above the small door. He Niang first introduced herself as someone sent by the Guan family, and then said, "Master Jiang, please wait a moment."

Jiang Dalang was satisfied and stood at the small door, waiting for Qin Xiaomi.

Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin were satisfied and expectant upon seeing this. They detained Uncle Qin and the others in the front shop and did not allow them to go back to the back house to disturb Jiang Dalang and Qin Xiaomi.

Half a minute later, the small door to the backyard opened, and Qin Xiaomi came out with Zhu Yiqing. She looked up at him and asked, "Did Mr. Xue ask you to bring me something? Here, thank you."

Really, no emotions, just a tool.

Everyone watching the show felt sad for Jiang Dalang.

But Jiang Dalang was very satisfied when he saw the lively and growing Qin Xiaomi. He took off the leather bag around his waist, took out a box, and handed it to Qin Xiaomi: "Here."

Qin Xiaomi took it and said, "Thank you very much, you have worked hard."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"Xiaomi, your second uncle and the others just came back and have a lot to say to us. Come out and listen." Grandpa Qin called her and hurriedly pulled off Grandma Qin's hand that was pinching him... He's already shouted, stop pinching, if you continue to pinch your spouse's hand the back will turn blue.

"Okay, I'll be out in a moment." Qin Xiaomi replied, took the box back to the house, and looked at the contents of the box by candlelight.

The Xue couple were very helpful and helped her buy a one-and-a-half-story house, a shop with a backyard, and a 40-acre farm in Dongfu Town at a low price.

Dongfu Town is just a hundred miles away from the capital city and is the only stop on the way to the capital from Dongming Prefecture.

In a location like this, the houses, shops and land must have been divided up long ago. The Xue family was able to help her buy it at a low price, which probably meant that they were transferring their resources to her.

In addition, the Xue family also helped her buy a three-story house with a well and a street-facing shop in the southern part of the capital, saying that it was the Jin family who released them and she snatched them away.

In order to snatch this, Xue Jiading sacrificed his face and connections.

However, because it is a scarce resource in the capital city, the price is relatively expensive, a house costs ten thousand taels, and a street shop costs fifteen thousand taels.

The banknotes Qin Xiaomi gave were not enough, so the Xue couple paid for her.

This time, he turned the wealthy woman Qin Xiaomi into a penniless woman with a debt of 18,000 taels.

So poor again!

Moreover, she might have to owe this debt until the end of the year, because she had to save money to buy medicinal materials...

Because the families who sold medicinal herbs made a small fortune last year, this year people from all over the county and the two neighboring counties are collecting medicinal herbs to sell to her herbal medicine workshop.

Without some big capital, she can't make it.

After Qin Xiaomi checked various contracts, she quickly read the three letters that the Xue couple had given her. Seeing that nothing serious had happened, she felt relieved.

"Xiaomi, Xiaomi, come out quickly and listen to the new and interesting things happening to your second uncle and Dalang in the capital!" Grandma Qin urged again.

"Okay, I'll be right there." After putting her things away, Qin Xiaomi walked out of the house and went to the front bunk. She saw everyone sitting around a big table. They all watched Jiang Dalang, Uncle Qin, Xiao Gu, Xiao Erlang, and Old Man Xun eat and listened to them talk about what happened in the capital's Wuyuan.

Old man Xun has become successful and now sits in the main seat. When he saw Qin Xiaomi coming out, he talked a lot about his reunion with Old Man Jing, how he had a lot of disciples and grandchildren, and how he was treated with courtesy by all parties.

Granny Qin Liu flattered him: "Oh my, you are worthy of being called the elder. When you first came to our house, I knew you were no ordinary person. Look, you are an old immortal who was in trouble and was picked up by our Qin family!"

"This is plums pickled with basil. I know you like it, so I saved it for you. Come and have a try."

"Master Xun, I heard that all your disciples are sons of noble families, and all of them are successful candidates in the imperial examinations. My daughter Meizi has not yet found a marriage partner. What do you think?"

"Sixth brother's wife!" Grandpa Qin's face darkened.

Qin Laoliu immediately grabbed Qin Liupo and said, "You old woman, why are you talking about this again? Shut up and don't say anything more."

He assured Grandpa Qin: "Fifth brother, don't worry. My husband and I will never hold the family back."

Qin Xiaomi wanted to slap them: "How many times have you two played this kind of scene? Still doing it?"

When Old Man Xun saw Qin Xiaomi was angry, he immediately said, "Sixth wife, please stop interfering in your Mei Zi's affairs. The more you interfere, the more it will hinder your Mei Zi."

The old man pretended to be profound and began to deceive: "The older your daughter Meizi gets, the more blessed she becomes. Wherever she stays, that's where her blessings will be."

"Are you serious, old immortal?!" Qin Liupo's eyes glowed green and she almost jumped for joy.

Old Xun's acting skills have reached the pinnacle. He snorted and said, "Believe it or not, no matter how much I say, I won't say it... If you try to peek into the secrets of heaven, it will damage my fortune. I can only give you these few words for the sake of the young master and your Meizi."

"My ancestor, in your eyes, my daughter Mei Zi has the same status as Xiaomi girl?" Aunt Qin Liu almost cried with joy: "Believe it, believe it, I won't ask anymore. Don't worry, I will never urge my daughter Mei Zi again and will treat her well!"

Hmm, old man Xun nodded, and then said, "You two should go home first."

"Yes, yes, yes, old immortal, take a rest. We will go home first and come to see you tomorrow." Qin Liupo was afraid of angering old man Xun, who had too many backers, so she hurriedly pulled Qin Laoliu away.

Qin Xiaomi stood up and went to close the door of the shop. With a bang, the door was shut loudly, which scared old man Xun. He looked at Qin Xiaomi cautiously and said with a smile: "Young master, there is nothing I can do about the release of Liangshu. It was all the idea of ​​Duke Yan."

Go find Duke Yan, and don’t take your anger out on me, an old man.

Haha, Qin Xiaomi sneered.

"Xiaomi, don't be disrespectful to your elders. Elder Xun has helped our family a lot." Grandpa Qin said to Qin Xiaomi, and then said to Elder Xun: "From now on, you will be a free man. You can decide what to do. If you are free, you can teach the children."

Old man Xun didn't dare to respond and looked at Qin Xiaomi.

"Why are you looking at me? You act as if I bullied you." Qin Xiaomi suspected that old man Xun was a green tea woman and was openly trying to please her.

"Since you have signed the employment contract, you have to continue working in the medicine workshop. They are very busy right now and need an experienced doctor like you." Qin Xiaomi compromised.

But she had to get some benefits.

"I heard that you got a good thing, something like an exchange document. You can take it out and exchange it for our families occasionally. Do you have any objection?" Qin Xiaomi asked.

Jiang Dalang wrote to her to inform her about the gold and silver exchange book.

When Qin Xiaomi saw the letter, she almost went crazy with joy.

Bang bang, old man Xun patted his chest and promised: "As long as the young master needs it, the old man will never say no."

"Thank you." Qin Xiaomi was happy, but said, "Words are not enough, let's make a written agreement."

Jiang Dalang had already written the document. He took out two copies and put them on the table: "Both parties should take a look. If there is no problem, please sign and put your fingerprints on it."

Old Man Xun: "..."

You are such a bootlicker to your young boss.

Grandpa Qin stopped him: "Put the receipt away. You two are becoming less and less respectful to your elders as you grow older."
