Xie Zhinuan nodded slightly, “I see the business is quite good, so from now on, I’m leaving it in your hands. At the end of the month, I’ll come by to settle up and see how much we’ve earned, Xiaoyuan, you need to work hard!”
Xiaoyuan nodded vigorously.
She understood the principle.
This opportunity was unique, and she must seize it, to manage the braised meat shop well and not let her master down.
“Then I’m entrusting it to you, don’t disappoint me!” Xie Zhinuan patted Xiaoyuan on the shoulder.
She let the simple girl drive the carriage back.
On the way back, the simple girl glanced back at Xie Zhinuan, who was teasing a wolf and a dog, and couldn’t help but ask, “Miss, aren’t you afraid Xiaoyuan might cheat you?”
Simply handing over a braised meat shop to Xiaoyuan…
“If she really does cheat me, she won’t be able to continue without the braising sauce, and you’ve forgotten, I hold the house deed and land deed. I can completely replace her and let someone else take over the shop!”
With the spices and the well water enhanced by the Spiritual Spring, anyone can make the braised meat fragrant and overflowing.
If Xiaoyuan is smart, she won’t dig her own grave.
The simple girl thought about it and then understood.
Now, speaking of Xiaoyuan’s side.
She knew better than anyone that, even if the business was good now, she dared not harbor any other intentions, let alone be negligent.
Not to mention how much silver she could get each day, just consider Dong Sheng’s mother, who previously never mentioned the matter of marriage perhaps looking down on her family. Now she comes to the shop to sit for a while every day, constantly talking about their marriage, afraid Xiaoyuan might change her mind and the marriage would fall through.

Of course, Xiaoyuan and Dong Sheng had feelings for each other, deeper than what most people saw. Even if Xiaoyuan now seemed to earn more than him, he was very happy about it.Xiaoyuan finally had the opportunity to fulfill her dream.
Xie Zhinuan returned home and sought out Li Hengyi.
“Going to Fengping County?” Li Hengyi asked.
Xie Zhinuan nodded, “Yes, to Fengping County. That day, I checked the map, and it’s convenient to travel from there. Moreover, it has sea transportation, which gives it an advantage over other counties. I’m thinking of choosing somewhere in Fengping!”
Li Hengyi nodded, “Where will you choose? When the time comes, I’ll also pick a courtyard next to yours!”
“I plan to rent, not to buy a mansion!” Xie Zhinuan chuckled.
In her space, there were countless treasures that she would never run out of, yet she always felt there was an obstacle in her heart when it came to using them.
To this day, she hadn’t put anything into her space yet.
“Then will you go tomorrow?” Li Hengyi asked.
“Yes, I’ll go tomorrow. For the next few days, let Aunt Chen cook for you!”
Li Hengyi nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, “Then I’ll ask Yuanbao to accompany you. If something happens, he knows how to handle it, as it’s easy to dodge an open spear, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow!”
“…”
Xie Zhinuan thought about it, this old clothes business, Li Hengyi had a share too. It was reasonable for him to send Yuanbao with her.
“Alright!” Xie Zhinuan agreed.
She then began to pack. When traveling, one cannot have too little silver money, and necessary items like changes of clothes and shoes are essential. Fortunately, the Mule Cart was large enough, but they had many items, plus a wolf and a dog to bring, which stuffed the Mule Cart to the brim.
Back home, Xie Zhinuan had no worries. Aunt Chen and Grandma Chen were both very capable. Even if Li Hengyi did not do the job of collecting Jiji Grass, Aunt Chen could do it. Xie Zhinuan thought they could keep collecting here for the time being and later send everything to Fengping.
For this reason, Xie Zhinuan personally cooked to prepare a good meal for Li Hengyi; with her departure, it was uncertain when she would return.
Several Mule Carts stopped in front of her house.
A few men got down.
“Is this the place, right?” the leader asked softly.
