The two waited for a while, and the guards took them to a study room. Through the screen, in the dim candlelight, a figure sat lazily.

It was not surprising to the two of them that the prince had no choice but to face people directly since he had ruined his face a few years ago. He would hide behind the screen to deal with anything.

"Your Majesty, if you encounter something today, you need to decide." Manager Li of Yayi Teahouse reported on what happened in the teahouse during the day.

"Shopkeeper Li, do you feel that you are a little too conservative? With Mr. Xu and Mr. Yang as a double guarantee, why not give the girl ten or twenty taels? And the best sago pearl dew, if it is delicious as you said, have you ever thought of buying it? As for the store name, just want to change it, just listen to the bamboo tea shop, just listening to the name gives people an elegant artistic conception. No need to shout ourselves, the tea shop will naturally feel it."

"The prince has taught me a lesson! The young man wanted to make plans after seeing the tea shops' reaction to Ximilu in three days. The young man will change the store name tomorrow." Manager Li quickly responded.

"Remember, first, Mr. Xu and Chu Wuya come to the store in the future, and what are their requirements to satisfy them as much as possible. Second, from the day after tomorrow, if the tea chef can write poems about bamboo on the spot, he will give him a bowl of black pearl dew."

Manager Li said yes repeatedly, and was surprised that the prince knew the name of the little girl and was willing to give the tea shoppers the precious black pearl dew.

When Zhang Guest House saw that Manager Li had stepped down, he also reported the matter about the restaurant. It turned out that the two of them went to Yayi Teahouse in front of Deyi Building, and they didn't know if there was any hidden information.

"Shopkeeper Fang, you can think of buying a recipe for the dish. This idea is worthy of reward, but the time is not yet ripe. If two people go to the restaurant again, you just need to cooperate with them vigorously, and there is no need to be wary of it, and you should not make things difficult."

"I am a little incompetent and can't make the restaurant profitable for a long time. I beg the prince to punish me!" Manager Fang knelt down.

"Don't blame yourself too much. I don't want to make money by relying on a restaurant. It's not my intention to compete with the people for profit. You can do it well, just go ahead."

The lazy figure and decadent voice made people unable to hear joy or anger. Manager Fang repeatedly sued the crime and then stepped down.

A figure walked in through the side door, saluted the prince, and said, "The prince is incompetent, the restaurant and teahouse cannot make profits, and the farm loses its income. This year, the prince's mansion is afraid that it will not be able to make ends meet. The prince has limited abilities, so I beg the prince to choose another Gao Ming."

"The Chief Qin does not need to blame himself. Restaurants and teahouses are commercial matters, and it is understandable that you are not yours. The farm lost harvest is caused by drought and cannot be achieved by manpower. Alas, I cannot give up a surplus in just a small palace, which shows how difficult it is for my father to govern the world."

Chief Qin hurriedly knelt down: "The prince worked hard, and the subordinate felt deeply guilty!"

"My manor is close to rivers and the drought is still severe. It can be seen that the drought in other places in Daning is even more severe, and in recent times, there are even disaster victims in some places. If we work together to come up with a good idea for our father, it will undoubtedly be the welfare of the country in Daning! Qin Changshi, please find more skilled craftsmen to see how to alleviate the drought. A few days ago, several people were killed and injured in the county's laborers, and it would not work just to dig canals."

"The prince is concerned about the stability of the country and wants to help the emperor solve his problems. We should do our best to serve him. Please give me instructions!"

"Thinking more ways to make the farm produce more is what I expect from you."

Early in the morning, the twins had already gotten up. They cut some small bamboo tips according to Chu Congqing's request and cut them into the length of their fingers, saying that they were tools for learning to count.

"Sister, do you think this is OK?" Qilang immediately took it over when he saw Chu get up calmly.

Chu looked at it calmly and nodded.

At this time, Liulang took a fluffy thing from outside the courtyard gate and said, "I don't know who it is, so I put a piece of grass at my doorstep."

Ye happened to hear it as he came over and said, "I saw it yesterday, and I thought it was you who used it for fun."

Seeing her daughter staring at her, she said, "This is the stick of the pony stick. It was not as dry as before, and it was all over. The villagers used its poles to weave mats and straw hats. It was even more powerful and was used to weave straw sandals. Now there are so fewer ones, only by the river. I haven't heard of the pony sticks as it is useful, it's all for children to play with."

Chu Congqing looked carefully and saw that the red-brown grass stick looked like a ham sausage in another time and space. Isn’t this a cattail stick!

When Liulang heard that his mother said it was useless, he turned around and wanted to throw it away. Chu Congqing called him and asked him to put it in his room. Liulang didn't say anything, just do whatever he wanted.

After eating breakfast, Chu Congrong was busy with some of the things at hand and began to teach the children to recognize numbers. The seven or eight-year-old child had strong learning ability, and soon remembered the Arabic numerals zero to nine. They were worried that their sister would teach more, but Chu Congrong just asked them to practice hard on the ground, so the two had to do it obediently.

The two of them practiced patiently for half an hour, and Chu Congrong was almost busy with the matter at hand, so he told them to go to Longtan Village to meet their elder sister later.

The two of them were a little confused when they heard this. They had never seen their elder sister before, but they just stayed on the title "Daya Sister". Moreover, none of them had been to Longtan Village, and they didn't know which elder sister was sold and where to find them?

Several people ran to ask Brother Sanlang, but Sanlang didn't know the specific location. He only knew that it was sold to a family named Zhou, which was asked by the milk to go there. No one knew the specific situation of the third room.

Oh my God, a living person was sold to someone casually, and no one in the whole family knew about it. What was the situation? Chu Congrong wanted to pull Chu Youxian up from the bed and ask him how he was his father!

It would be a waste of the good intention of giving this kind of incompetent father to a rich man!

"Let's go! Let's ask." Chu Congrong ordered Liulang to bring a few pieces of yesterday's pastries, and the three of them went straight to Longtan Village.

Longtan Village and Longgouwo Village are not close, and there are several villages in the middle. It takes more than an hour to walk, which means that there are nearly twenty miles. The three of them are walking around and stopping, but they are not hungry, but they are prone to thirst. Fortunately, Chu Congyun has experience and asked the twins to prepare water with bamboo tubes.

After finally reaching Longtan Village, Chu Congrong didn't dare to disturb the adults at first. Finally, he met a few kids and half-sized children. After giving out a few pieces of pastry, he finally asked about the useful situation. A household in the village named Zhou bought a little girl a few years ago, but they moved away a year ago.

Chu Congrong was very disappointed. After a relatively older child received three cents, he even gave her exact information: Before moving away, the girl turned around and sold it to someone else. As for the buyer, he didn't know the specific details. Chu Congrong hurriedly found the adults in the village and asked everyone, but they only knew that the buyer's surname was Su, and they couldn't tell wherever they lived. If they wanted to further understand the whereabouts of the Zhou family, they only knew that their family had moved to another place, and they had no way to know the address.

Chu returned home calmly and told Ye about the information he had found. When Ye heard that his eldest daughter was missing, he cried so hard that the sky was dim.

She has never had any hope for this matter, so it's fine. But the younger daughter first gave her great hope, but suddenly it turned into endless disappointment, which made her unable to bear it. Of course, she also knew that she could not blame her younger daughter for this matter, but when she thought of her eldest daughter who didn't know where she was wandering, she couldn't control her sadness.

Chu Congrong had to comfort her with kind words. She hadn't seen her for seven years and didn't care about waiting for a few more days. She would do her best to investigate the whereabouts of her elder sister and ensure that they can reunite with her mother and daughter.

As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Chu Congqing knew that he had handled this matter too roughly, which also warned himself to be more steady in the future.

After finally comforting Ye, he didn't know how much tapioca pulp had been ground in the fourth uncle, so he turned around and went to Niu Er's house. Niu Er and his wife were at home, and Niu Xiaohua went out to find wild vegetables.

"Aunt Niu Er, I brought you some food. I'll try it tonight. If you think it's delicious, I'll ask Miss Xiaohua to come to me the day after tomorrow."

Niu Ersao took it happily and said, "Your mother brought us a good cloth in the morning, and then came to you to deliver vegetables to our house in the afternoon. This is too polite."

She thought about it and said a little disgusted, "Your fourth uncle is grinding cassava in the backyard. You might as well pull the stone mill away, we don't need it anyway."

She knew that this little girl was amazing. It was okay for her family to be dumped by her grandparents. She still lived a comfortable life. She moved good things home every day. She asked for cassava chips twice. Her daughter went out with her for a few dozen cents after a long time. The strong man couldn't make so much in two or three days!

"I know, Second Aunt, you have always been kind to us, but the stone mill doesn't need to be moved. I can guarantee that you will use the stone mill soon." Chu Congqing smiled, "I will accompany my mother to my grandma's house tomorrow, and the county the day after tomorrow. Second Aunt remembers to remind Sister Xiaohua."

That night, Niu Er and his wife were fascinated by looking at the two dishes. This was a new food they had never seen before.

Seeing that his younger brother and sister were having a lot of fun, Niu Xiaohua picked up some and tasted them. It felt very delicious, like tofu but it was much better than tofu.

"Dad, what are these two dishes? Why don't you eat them?"

Aunt Niu Er smiled and said, "Daughter, we don't know what kind of dish it is. If you want to know, you have to ask your good friend Wu Ya. This is what she sent it to, and the method was also made by her."

Niu Xiaohua yelled, it wouldn't be surprising if it was related to Wu Ya.

"Dad, do you think this dish is made of tofu? Just this thin piece of it, mix it with some cucumbers and sesame seeds, add some soy sauce, and mix it for a few times. It's so simple, but the taste is too good to be better! And these sliced ​​ones, Wu Ya said that if you stir-fry it with spicy and pork belly, the taste is even better!"

"If you eat more delicious food, eat more! I have a bean flavor. Didn't you say that there was a lot of tofu left in her house that day? It was probably made of tofu. But you said that you would grind her stone, but she didn't want it, and said that we can use it soon. Do she want us to make tofu for her?" Niu Er analyzed.

"Damn, what if you help her make tofu? As long as it is more cost-effective than selling it on the street, we will make it! Otherwise, we can't afford to eat bran every day with just that little bit of land! If Xiaohua hadn't brought back the dozens of cents, San'er's medicine would have no money to catch!"

Aunt Niu admires Chu Congrong.

"This thing is simple to make but tastes great. If we have a way to make this kind of food, I can guarantee that we will have no worries about food and clothing!" Niu Er sighed. He had sold tofu in the town before, and based on his feelings, he knew that this thing should be very popular.

"No wonder Wu Ya always buys things at home. I can't say that the money comes from here. But don't think about it. People can learn the good way to make money so easily? If it's really made of tofu, it would be great if she could buy tofu from us."

"Mom, I'll know when I go to Wu Ya tomorrow. What are you thinking about?" Niu Xiaohua had seen Wu Ya's way of making money, but she agreed not to tell anyone.
