Chapter 133 Sending Si Shaoheng to School

After Luo Niangzi finished checking the goods, Cheng Ruoan asked Dapeng, who was waiting outside the courtyard, to come in and help the two of them load the goods onto the trolley.

There are over three hundred cans in total. It's highly impractical to carry them by hand to the side gate and onto the carriage.

The three followed behind the cart; Cheng Ruoan had come to see the two off.

Luo Niangzi and Cheng Ruoan hadn't seen each other much, but this time, because of the new accounting method, their feelings for each other quickly warmed up.

She took Cheng Ruoan's hand and walked with her, saying with emotion, "I think these 270 jars won't last more than a few days. Even the best-selling purse designs in our embroidery workshop back in the day weren't this sought after."

"Our embroidery shop's accounts this month look much better because of this cloud-shaped ointment."

It really makes me cry.

The best-selling item in the embroidery shop wasn't the embroidery itself, but the hand cream.

Cheng Ruoan could easily imagine the embroiderers spontaneously promoting their products, and she smiled happily, "Because the embroiderers are not only the main purchasing power, but also the best hand models."

Now that Luo Niangzi could understand the words "hand model," she covered her mouth with her handkerchief and laughed, "That's right. Originally, many women and young ladies from moderately wealthy families who wanted to take care of their hands would ask the embroiderers for advice."

After seeing the people off, Cheng Ruoan happened to pass by the place where Yang the bricklayer and his team were repairing the toilet, so he stopped there to give them some on-site guidance.

"Master Yang, the front shops are almost finished with renovations, but how long will it take to fix the toilets inside?" Cheng Ruoan wanted to get the front shops open as soon as possible.

But Cheng's mother said that there was still construction going on at home, so it was inconvenient to open a business.

But this first toilet isn't even finished yet; there are three more waiting in the wings!

Master Yang scratched his head awkwardly, "It'll be soon, it'll be soon. Once the first one is done, the rest will be quick."

As a result, Si Shaoheng had already moved into the county school to live on campus, but the fourth toilet was only half finished!

On the day Si Shaoheng went to the county school to register, Cheng Ruoan brought their two children to the county town to see him off.

Under the shade of trees not far from the county academy, Da Kun and Mian'er stood under the carriage, while the family of four bid each other a reluctant farewell.

The main thing is that Niannian clung to Si Shaoheng's neck and wouldn't let go.

"Daddy will miss you so much! You'll be locked up on the mountain like a monkey for ten days before you can come home for a day of rest. It'll be so hard and tiring! I'll miss you so much I'll cry!"

Si Shaoheng's lips twitched violently. "Father is going to study, not to become a monkey."

Cheng Ruoan laughed uncontrollably, not bothering to comfort her daughter, but simply watching the fun with her arms crossed.

Si Shaoheng glanced at her but didn't say anything reproachful. In the end, he could only bribe Niannian with money.

He took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into Si Xin's hand, saying, "Go find Sister Mian'er and I'll take you to buy sugar figurines."

Si Nian's eyes lit up instantly, and she hugged Si Shaoheng's face with her chubby little hands and gave him a big kiss.

"Thank you, Daddy! Daddy's the best!"

Si Xin looked at Cheng Ruoan with a questioning gaze. After Cheng Ruoan nodded with a smile, the little guy smiled and stretched out his little hand to his sister.

"Come on, brother will take you to buy sugar figurines."

Everyone at home says that Si Nian is becoming more and more like a little rascal, but Cheng Ruoan thinks that Si Xin is the most fun.

The child is only four years old, but acts like a little adult every day.

At such a young age, they were already speaking in classical Chinese.

But occasionally he still retains a childlike innocence, which he tries hard to suppress for the sake of his image.

That makes it even funnier.

For example, right now, when he heard that he could buy sugar figurines, he couldn't help but smile, and he even deliberately frowned and pursed his lips.

As soon as the two children got out of the car, Si Shaoheng couldn't help but reach out and flick Cheng Ruoan's forehead.

"Stop arguing, I've never seen a mother like you."

Si Nian was crying her eyes out just now, and she was standing to the side grinning with her hands behind her back.

Cheng Ruoan hissed in pain from the flick, glaring at him fiercely: "A gentleman uses words, not fists. How can you be like this!"

Do they even have the slightest awareness of how to be gentle and considerate towards their sugar daddy?

Si Shaoheng scoffed, "Yes, a gentleman uses words. I can't be like you, biting people at the slightest disagreement."

Last night, Cheng Ruoan finally finished her business and had time to go into her space and plant all the empty courtyard land.

Because Si Shaoheng had ruined so many wheat seeds before, and Cheng Ruoan also needed to plant bamboo, they didn't let Si Shaoheng go in to help.

As a result, Cheng Ruoan was left alone to farm. When she got tired, she became increasingly angry, feeling that Si Shaoheng was a man who couldn't help her at all.

After she came out of the space, she grabbed Si Shaoheng's arm and bit him hard.

He pointed at him and said dangerously, "If it weren't for the fact that you did well on the county school entrance exam, I would have given you a whole set of punches!"

Although a whole night had passed, it didn't stop Si Shaoheng from holding a grudge.

The teeth mark is still on Si Shaoheng's arm.

Cheng Ruoan hummed twice, then took out a spiral notebook from her spatial storage and opened it to reconcile accounts with Si Shaoheng.

"Finish the match now if you didn't finish it last night. I estimate that in a few days, your mother or Si Erlang will come to the Cheng residence."

Si Shaoheng agreed wholeheartedly. He moved from the opposite couch to Cheng Ruoan's side and sat down with her to look at the account book.

And quite naturally, he pulled out a pen from his pocket and sketched a few entries on the notebook.

"This, this, and this, you can go directly to Registrar Xu to settle the cost of building the distillery. He's the one who deals directly with the craftsmen."

Go and check the accounts for these grains with the registrar's wife. I've already given her a deposit; the final payment will depend on how much grain she receives.

Cheng Ruoan made a note next to him, and then asked, "When can we get the money?"

Si Shaoheng took out a jade pendant from his long sleeve and gave it to her. It was a piece of the lowest quality jade, with "Han" engraved on one side and "Qi" on the other.

"Take this jade token and go to Qingliu Alley in the county on the fifth day to find Han the peddler and see if the silver has returned. If it hasn't, you'll have to go back and ask on the tenth day."

He said there were six people ahead of us whose goods needed selling, so he could only proactively inquire every five days.

Cheng Ruoan carefully put the jade pendant away and clicked his tongue, saying, "These people have such bad service, yet their business is still so good."

The "people" she was referring to were those who specialized in helping people pawn jewelry, antiques, and paintings of dubious origin in various places.

They tried many methods, but currently they couldn't convert all the gold in the space into cash. However, they didn't have enough start-up capital to open a winery, so they had no choice but to pawn the jewelry.

The amount of jewelry and ornaments moved from Qingshan County and Panlongzhai was indeed considerable. If they relied on themselves to sell them in different places, it was unknown when they would be able to raise enough money for the winery.

Si Shaoheng could only laugh when he heard her complain: "Who told them to have the channels while we don't? Besides, although this group's service attitude is not good, they are honest and won't steal money except for the commission, which is quite good."

"Too."

After the two finished settling the accounts, Si Shaoheng was about to go to the county school. Before leaving, he gave Cheng Ruoan some instructions.

"Although the winery is located in the county town, you can't just leave everything to the Xu couple. You still have to keep an eye on things."

After all, Registrar Xu and Magistrate Fang together only hold 50% of the shares; we still hold the majority. We can't just wash our hands of the business after covering the technology and costs.

Cheng Ruoan was impatient to listen to his lecture. She didn't even raise her head, just waved her hand and kept her head down organizing the account books.
