Chapter 129: The Little Heartless Boy, I Didn't Look for Him for Half a Month

The little girl first asked Jiang Zhi to send the three refugees who wanted to eat people to the government office in the city.

After that, she made up her mind and did it.

Shen Ningning quietly took out the more than 100 taels of silver she had saved from the fairyland and gave it to Chen Ye.

"Brother Chen, go back to the village and ask Uncle Liu and the craftsmen from last time to come to the city to buy some wood."

"Miss, are you going to build a house?"

"Yes, I want to build a simple but sturdy tea shed." Shen Ningning nodded and ordered.

She asked Chen Ye to buy more wood, set up a tea shed at the fork of the road not far ahead, and also planned to build a few more small houses behind the tea shed.

Before the drought, some people did open tea sheds outside the city gate, all for the purpose of providing a place for people on the road to rest.

However, since the disaster year, refugees have been entrenched here, and the nobles who passed by every time didn't want to stop, so the tea shed was naturally closed.

Therefore, Chen Ye's first reaction to opening a store here was that he would lose money.

How can you earn money in a place where the nobles are unwilling to stay?

But Shen Ningning was determined and looked confident.

The next day.

The little guy took some fresh Aconitum and went to the capital to exchange it for silver with the owner of the medicine shop.

The owner of the medicine shop smiled and bowed, congratulating him first.

"I heard that the young lady was named the head of Funing Township. It's really a blessing. I have long seen that you have a wonderful face. You will definitely be rich and powerful in the future!"

Shen Ningning placed six Aconitum on the table one by one.

Hearing this, she turned and blinked her smart big eyes to look at the owner.

"Huh? How did the owner know?" She clearly asked Mo Lingwei not to publicize it.

A trace of guilt flashed in the eyes of the owner of the medicine shop.

Then he smiled and said, "Miss, you forgot that I have connections in the palace, so I heard some rumors."

"I see." Shen Ningning nodded slightly: "By the way, the noble you often mentioned, is your illness better?"

After eating so many Aconitum, he should be almost cured?

What kind of disease is so difficult to cure?

The shopkeeper of the medicine shop shook his head: "It won't be cured so quickly. The illness of the noble is an old disease."

Shen Ningning was curious: "Who is the noble? Have I heard of him?"

The shopkeeper of the medicine shop choked: "I shouldn't have."

Knowing that she is smart and afraid that she will see the clues, the shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Miss, please sit down for a while, I will go and get you the silver."

He turned and went into the inner hall, and then wiped the cold sweat that had just appeared on his forehead.

I almost let it slip!

Since knowing that Shen Ningning was the benefactor of the prince, the shopkeeper of the medicine shop originally wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to Shen Ningning.

But his brother, Lord Fang, the head of the Imperial Hospital, told him not to make it public.

Although the owner of the medicine shop didn't know the specific reason, he could guess a little.

His brother seemed to be a member of Concubine Li's faction in the palace.

I don't know whether it was out of guilt or remorse, the owner of the medicine shop gave Shen Ningning an extra 100 taels this time.

When handed to the little guy, there were a total of 1,000 taels of silver notes.

Shen Ningning no longer hesitated and accepted it happily.

After returning to the village, she immediately called Chen Ye and Jiang Zhi.

More than 100 taels were definitely not enough to buy wood, so she gave Chen Ye another 500 taels of silver notes, which also included the daily wages of the craftsmen.

She also gave Jiang Zhi 300 taels to let her buy some things for the tea shed.

In this way, Shen Ningning was outside the city to help build the tea shed except when she was in private school.

Some of the refugees who had received her help, including tall young men, also came to help.

They refused to ask for a penny of wages, and only let Shen Ningning reward two buns to eat, and they were extremely satisfied.

That night, the stars were shining and the moon was in the sky.

Grandma Qin was sitting in the corridor, taking a nap with Wolf Three and Wolf Four at her feet.

Shen Ningning was sitting in the courtyard, with the Black Wolf King by her side. The boy and the wolf were studying how to make sweet water.

Although they were going to open a tea shed, the little guy prepared several different flavors of iced water.

One was orange chopped and mixed with honey, one was loquat sugar crushed into sugar residue, poured with honey and stirred, and then paired with some fresh watermelon pulp, and the last one was lychee honey with chopped snow pear.

These sweet fruit ingredients were placed in a large bowl with two spoons, and then poured with sweet and delicious iced spiritual spring water.

It will definitely be loved by everyone!

Shen Ningning even thought about the price.

One cup is one liang, four cups are three liang.

Shen Ningning had tasted these three flavors a long time ago.

She scooped two spoons of loquat sugar and chopped honey into a bowl, put the chopped watermelon pulp on it, and then poured a bowl of iced spring water.

After a little stirring, the golden honey swayed and dispersed, and the watermelon pulp and crushed ice were crystal clear and delicious.

On this hot summer night, Shen Ningning couldn't help wanting to drink another bowl.

Fortunately, the little guy held back.

She patted her belly: "I can't drink it today, otherwise I will have diarrhea!"

Then, Shen Ningning picked up the ice bowl and ran to Grandma Qin.

"Grandma, you drink~" Grandma hasn't tasted the flavors she has studied yet!

Grandma Qin didn't know what she was thinking, and her eyes looked at the bright moon frost in the yard with a little absent-mindedness.

"Grandma?" Shen Ningning tilted her head and called softly.

Grandma Qin seemed to come back to her senses, looking at Shen Ningning, smiling kindly and gently: "Ningning, what's wrong?"

Shen Ningning picked up the ice bowl: "Try this, I plan to sell it in the tea shed!"

Grandma Qin drank two sips and praised it again and again.

The little fellow was even more encouraged and continued to study the ratio of sugar and honey.

But at this time, the black wolf king patted her little feet with his paw.

"Awoo~" It growled a few times.

Shen Ningning listened and looked in the direction of her grandmother, only to see that her grandmother was distracted again.

The black wolf king said that Grandma Qin was worried.

After he reminded her, Shen Ningning recalled her grandmother's recent behavior, as if it was true.

At first she thought that her grandmother was uncomfortable because of the heat, but there were ice cubes at home, and there was a seven-wheel fan, which was as cool as spring.

It seemed that since Uncle Qin was executed, Grandma had been worried.

I heard from Langlang that Grandma Qin went to Yu'an County alone before. What did she do? Grandma's bad mood, could it be related to this incident?

Time passed in a flash, and ten days passed.

Shen Ningning's tea shed also took shape.

She found a craftsman to make a plaque sign and decided to give her tea shed a loud and nice name.

"What should I call her?" She sat on a chair and thought, with the Black Wolf King lying beside her, and the refugees standing around her to help brainstorm.

Some people said to call her "Miss Long Live", others said to call her "Miss Peace", and even more outrageous, some people suggested to call her "Miss Long Live and Bless".

Shen Ningning didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Since it was the signature name of the teahouse, how could it all revolve around her.

The little guy's eyes turned, and he looked down, only to see the Black Wolf King lazily wagging his ears.

These days, Langlang has been running around with her, and it's very hard.

Although Jiang Zhi and Chen Ye also helped, Shen Ningning never treated them badly and gave them silver as a thank you.

But the Black Wolf King is of great significance to the little guy, and he is as important as his adoptive father.

She suddenly had an idea, jumped off the chair, grabbed the Black Wolf King's paw, and pressed it into the inkstone.

"Ah?!" The Black Wolf King opened his wolf pupils and looked at him puzzledly.

Shen Ningning pressed its wolf paw and covered it on the paper, leaving a black paw print the size of an adult's palm.

Then he picked up the pen and wrote the four words "Wolf swallows sweet water", then raised the paper and read it twice with satisfaction.

Everyone was stunned, and even the Black Wolf King shook his ears in confusion.

Shen Ningning smiled sweetly and explained: "The sweet water I sell is even loved by wolves."

Then he handed the paper to the craftsman who made the sign and asked him to write it on the plaque and make it into gold-plated words.

It was the first time for the craftsman to see such a sign name, and he even praised Shen Ningning for being unique.

The little guy paid twenty taels of silver, and the craftsman agreed to deliver the goods in five days, so he left happily.

Just when Shen Ningning was about to gather the refugees together and announce something.

Several black cavalry iron armored guards led the way and stopped at the door of the tea shed, and then a luxurious carriage stopped right behind.

A bony hand lifted the curtain, and Mo Lingwei's pair of thin eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling were revealed.

"Shen Ningning, come, get in the car." He extended his hand to invite.

Mo Lingwei has been busy with affairs recently, and Shen Ningning, the little conscienceless person, really forgot about him and didn't come to see him for nearly half a month!

I am still trying to recover from a bowl of porridge today. The good news is that I don't have a fever anymore! 39 degrees almost made me stupid. I was confused yesterday. I wish you all a happy August. I will make up for it here. May you be happy, auspicious, safe and prosperous in August. Leave a message here to receive your good luck!
