There is a red scene deep in the heart of the cloud

Shocked, Zhao Yuyun regained his senses after a while, and told the maids: "Send Mr. Su to the wing to rest!"

After the two maids carried Su Zhaoning away, Zhao Yuyun smiled and said, "Mr. Ruan, your jade pendant is crystal clear and moist, with fine workmanship and smooth lines. It is a very good piece of jade. I don't know where you bought such a beautiful jade." , I am also a person who loves jade, and I want to buy a piece of beautiful jade for collection."

Ruan Hongjing reached out to weigh the jade pendant hanging around his neck, and said, "This jade pendant was not purchased, it was given to me by someone else."

Zhao Yuyun got to the bottom of it, and said: "I really like beautiful jade very much, can Mr. Ruan help me to ask the person who gave the jade, where does this jade come from?"

Ruan Hongjing murmured in his heart: I don't even know who the person who donated the jade is, how can I help you find out?

Ruan Hongjing half-truthfully said: "More than ten years ago, my little sister did a good deed and saved a drowning man, and the drowning man gave her this jade pendant as a thank you gift. My little sister loves me so much that she gave me the jade pendant. When the man who fell into the water was washed to the river, my little sister happened to see her. My little sister hired a woodcutter to carry the man ashore from the river beach, Arranged for the man to stay at the woodcutter's house for recuperation. The man woke up after being in a coma for several days. He probably had to rush on something urgent, so he left without saying goodbye to my little sister. He entrusted the woodcutter to give this jade pendant to my little sister. Yes. According to my little sister, the man was swollen from soaking in the water at that time, and my little sister has never even seen his real face. So, Mr. Zhao, I don’t know where this jade pendant came from!"

Zhao Yuyun smiled and said: "The home of good deeds, there must be Yuqing! Mr. Ruan will definitely be able to go to high school this time!"

Ruan Hongjing said with a smile: "If the family of Jishan really has Yuqing, then I hope I can make a lot of money in the future!"

Zhao Yuyun laughed, raised his wine glass, and said, "I believe that you will be able to fulfill your wish in the future, come on, cheers!"

The next day, Ruan Hong put a bookcase of black taro powder on her back, picked a lively tea house, stopped at the door, and started to sell: "Jiangnan ginseng black taro powder, eat the black taro powder that is permanent in youth... ..."

Going back in the evening, as soon as he reached the door, the old landlord stopped Ruan Hongjing and said, "Young master, Mr. Su has been waiting for you for a long time, but he didn't see you coming back, so he asked the villain to tell you that he has moved out for the time being."

Ruan Hongjing wondered: Did this weird and nympho Su Zhaoning move to his cousin's house, or where did Xie Jinrui go?

Walking into the courtyard, she met Gao Caixiao, who saluted respectfully, and said, "Mr. Ruan, I disturbed you yesterday, but today, the young lady has prepared some wine to make amends, and I hope you will show me your face."

Ruan Hongjing had been selling black taro noodles all day long, and was hungry and tired. Hearing this, she felt right in her arms and went happily.

Ruan Hongjing and Gao Caixiao were eating food, Ruan Hongjing said: "Miss Gao is very capable, she has even come to the capital to do business."

Gao Caixiao said with a smile: "My father has no children, only a daughter like me. My father didn't want his hard-earned family business to fall into the hands of his nephews, so he let me inherit his mantle."

Ruan Hongjing bowed her hands to Gao Caixiao to express her admiration, and said, "Who says women are inferior to men? Miss Gao is so responsible, I admire you. May I ask what kind of business Miss Gao's family does?"

Gao Caixiao said: "Buy all kinds of supplies for the palace..."

Before Gao Caixiao finished speaking, Ruan Hongjing was very excited, "Teng" stood up, stepped back a few steps, bowed to Gao Caixiao, and said, "Miss Gao, please accept my bow!"

Gao Caixiao was taken aback by Ruan Hongjing's actions, and quickly stood up to return the salute, saying, "Mr. Ruan, why do you worship me? Mr. Ruan is a famous Juren master, how can you salute me?"

Ruan Hongjing said excitedly: "Miss Gao doesn't know something. My younger brother runs a grocery store in my hometown. My highest goal in life is to earn a lot of money as an imperial merchant like Miss Gao. May I ask Miss Gao, how can I become an imperial merchant?"

Gao Caixiao laughed loudly, and said: "Young master is really an interesting person. You are a famous and famous Juren lord, but you want to be an imperial merchant. An imperial merchant is still a businessman in essence, and being a Jinshi is far more rewarding than being an imperial merchant." The future is glorious."

Ruan Hongjing lamented deliberately: "The official career is difficult and dangerous, and my family is poor. I want to leave a way out."

Gao Caixiao nodded and said: "It's understandable to leave a way out for yourself. As the saying goes, it's easy to enjoy the shade under a big tree, and someone in the court is good to be an official. In fact, it's the same with business. If you want to be an imperial merchant, you must be in the third division. Yamen registration and filing, registration is difficult, it is indeed difficult, easy to say, it is easy, it is not difficult to have help from the government, and it is more difficult than going to heaven if there is no one to help."

Ruan Hongjing kept nodding her head like pounding garlic, cupped her hands to thank Gao Caixiao, and said, "Listening to what you have to say is better than studying for ten years! Thank you, Miss Gao, for your guidance."

In the middle of the night, Ruan Hongjing was so excited that she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. After thinking about it, she felt that only when Xie Jinrui became an official could she use Xie Jinrui's influence to become an imperial merchant.Ruan Hongjing ran into the courtyard, knelt down facing the moon and kowtowed, muttering: "God bless...Housu bless...Buddha bless...Bodhisattva bless...Bless Xie Jinrui for being named on the gold list, bless Xie Jinrui for entering As an official in the court, bless me to make a lot of money!"

The next day, Ruan Hongjing went to the door of the teahouse to sell black taro noodles on his back.Today a gray-haired fortune-teller came to the door of the teahouse. Ruan Hongjing thought that black taro powder would not be easy to sell anyway, so he took a pack of black taro powder to the fortune-teller and said, "Mr. Eyes and ears, I'll give you a bag."

"Thank you, my lord." The fortune teller looked Ruan Hongjing up and down, "My lord, you look like a scholar, why did you act as a peddler?"

Ruan Hongjing smiled and said, "I'm just a peddler, so I'm not a scholar."

The fortune teller squinted his eyes to examine Ruan Hongjing carefully, and said with a smile: "This old man has been in the rivers and lakes for decades, and has read countless people. This is the first time I have seen such a bookish grocer. Hehe, you are really a weirdo! Let me do the math for you." Bazi, let's see if you have a chance to stand up."

Ruan Hongjing said with a smile: "I'm a grocer, if there is any chance of turning around, why don't you count my marriage for me."

The old fortune-teller calculated seriously, but Ruan Hongjing didn't take it seriously at all, and waited with a smile on his face.

The old man who told the fortune said, "Your marriage started early, and you met your destined person when you were ten years old."

Ruan Hongjing scoffed in his heart: Nonsense!Why didn't I know that my marriage happened early?

Ruan Hongjing laughed loudly and said, "Shit! I'm 22 years old this year, and I'm still a bachelor!"

This old fortune-teller has been in the rivers and lakes for decades, and his face has become as thick as an impenetrable wall. Ruan Hongjing said on the spot that he was not accurate, and he didn't feel embarrassed. , and came out to set up a stall."
