Chapter 336
Nanzhi and Shen Miaomiao stayed in Zeng Mansion for an hour. Mrs. Zeng and Master Zeng only felt relieved after hearing Hexiu's message.
My daughter is weak and has been detained at home since she was a child. She has few friends. She originally had a little sister who was more playful. That girl got married last year.
It's good now, there is still someone to talk to.
"Master, I think those two girls are pretty good." Mrs. Zeng pinched the corner of the silk to suppress the tears in her eyes.
"It's considered thoughtful." Mr. Zeng nodded. He was also in business, so naturally he could see something. At least these two little girls were sincere.
"Master, have you checked?"
Mrs. Zeng is talking about Wang Jingzhi.
Ever since her daughter said those words a few days ago, she has been thinking about it.
The more I thought about it, the more I realized it was feasible. After all, my daughter was in poor health. If she could marry a doctor, she would feel more at ease.
Wang Jingzhi seemed to be an honest man.
"After checking, the child's life will be miserable." When Master Zeng thought about what the servant said back, he felt a lot in his heart.
"Yeah?"
Mrs. Zeng's eyes widened slightly, waiting for her husband's next words.
"That child is from the same hometown as the two owners of Sanweiju. He grew up with his grandpa. His grandpa knows pharmacology, so he has also been a doctor since he was a child."
Master Zeng took a sip of tea.
Mrs. Zeng also nodded, knowing roughly what was going on.
"Later, there was a famine there, and his grandfather died on the way. He almost died on the way alone. It was the two girls who saved his life. After arriving in Yancheng, he went to Jihetang to do the work. Apprentices, after receiving their monthly payment, some money will be given to their families."
Mr. Zeng was very satisfied with Wang Jingzhi. He was a businessman and valued profits in everything he did.
Even though it was a bit unethical to say it, Wang Jingzhi, who was alone without a father and mother, was their most suitable son-in-law candidate.
"That child is quite sensible." Mrs. Zeng nodded, feeling even more satisfied.
Because their daughter has a weak body, the couple believes that doing good deeds will bring blessings. Since their business started to improve in their early years, they have been doing good deeds and helping the poor.
Five years ago, they also had their eye on a young boy. The boy claimed that his family was in trouble and he was the only one left. At that time, they also thought about recruiting a son-in-law, and they spent a hundred taels of help. She wanted to let him settle down in Yancheng and support him in his studies. She just hoped that he could take good care of his daughter after he obtained the imperial examination.
As a result, the young man studied and became a talented person, but in the end he married the daughter of the academy master without telling them.
They didn't know about it until the day before the wedding.
Fortunately, my daughter didn't care much about that person, so she was able to avoid crying.
"Sir, is Wang Jingzhi the same as that person?" Mrs. Zeng stirred the handkerchief, inevitably a little worried.
Nannan didn't like the white-eyed scholar, so she didn't let her feel sad, but she liked Wang Jingzhi herself. If something happened again, I'm afraid the consequences would be serious.
The three girls in Miss Zeng's room were already laughing together.
"Miss Zeng, we still have to go to the ice drink shop in the south of the city, so we'll leave first."
Nanzhi looked at the sky and then said apologetically.
"I also want to eat ice, but it's a pity that my parents say that I am weak and are not willing to let me eat it on weekdays." Miss Zeng's face was bulging with anger, looking like a round puffer fish.
"Master Zeng and the others are also doing this for your own good." Nanzhi said with a smile.
"Sister Lin, does your restaurant need ice?"
Miss Zeng suddenly asked this question, making both Shen Miaomiao and Nanzhi stunned.
"Sister Zeng, what does this mean?"
Miss Zeng giggled, her brows and eyes full of joy: "If the two sisters need ice, I can still help here."
Shen Miaomiao froze, looked at Nanzhi, and then looked at Miss Zeng who had a blushing face.
"Sister Zeng, is it possible that your family also sells ice cream?"
Shen Miaomiao's eyes widened when she asked this question, somewhat in disbelief.
"I have a shop at home that specializes in selling ice." Ms. Zeng was also a little embarrassed.
The ice shop was a dowry left by her parents for her because she was afraid that she would be targeted by her husband's family if she got married due to her weak health. The ice shop was only open for five months a year, but she could earn thousands of taels of silver.
This is the confidence her parents left for her.
Nanzhi was immediately overjoyed. She originally wanted to find the steward of the Cheng family in the next two days, but Liu Datong told her.
If merchants in Yancheng want to buy ice, they have to pay a sum of money to the Cheng family every year, otherwise they may not be willing to sell ice.
After all, it would be enough for ordinary people to go to those small shops to buy ice, but restaurants like theirs use a lot of ice, and the Cheng family might not be willing to sell it without spending some money.
She was worrying about this matter, but she didn't expect to give him a pillow when she was dozed off. She thought she was lucky!
"Sister Zeng, does your ice shop have enough?"
It's not that he looks down on the Zeng family's ice shop, but it's because the ice selling industry in Yancheng is almost monopolized by the Cheng family. Not only are restaurants in need of ice, but the newly opened ice drink shop is also in great demand.
"Enough is enough." Miss Zeng nodded, a little embarrassed, but after thinking about it carefully, she still mumbled and spoke.
"Sister Shen, I just want to ask what kind of person Wang Jingzhi is."
After just chatting, she also learned that Wang Jingzhi and Shen Miaomiao were "childhood sweethearts" who had grown up together. Although they had not played with each other since they were thirteen years old, they had grown up together.
She wanted to find out what he would be like.
The little girl has rosy cheeks, red lips and white teeth, and she looks quite charming.
Looking at the beautiful woman on the bed, Shen Miaomiao only hesitated for two seconds before choosing to sell Wang Jingzhi to Miss Zeng.
"He, there is a huge difference between him when he was a child and now." Shen Miaomiao spoke seriously, which made Nanzhi and Miss Zeng confused.
Seeing that the two of them didn't understand, Shen Miaomiao started to explain: "When he was five years old, a beautiful sister came to our village. She was a visitor to the village and was three years older than us.
At that time, he was not so introverted, and he would play in the mud with us all day long. The sister was very good-looking, and when she saw us she smiled like a fairy.
At that time, he blushed quietly and told us that he liked that sister.
As a result, he only stayed in the village for three days, but he remembered it for two years. "
When talking about her childhood, Shen Miaomiao had some yearning on her face.
When they were children, several of their children would always go together to play in the mud and dig out bird eggs. Because she was a little girl, she was sometimes disliked by boys. At that time, it was Wang Jingzhi who protected her.
It's a pity that Uncle Wang had an accident later, and he had the same accident two years ago.
Shen Miaomiao was no longer the little girl who didn't understand anything. She had seen a lot and recalled Wang Jingzhi's miserable appearance. She could guess what happened.
"Is he actually like this?" Miss Zeng had a pair of bright round eyes and felt a little incredible.
When she saw Wang Jingzhi, she thought he had a quiet temper, but she never thought he would be like this when he was a child.
"There were a lot of things that happened to him when he was a child. Just listen to me..."
Wang Jingzhi, who was taking medicine in Jihetang, suddenly felt a light on his back and shivered uncontrollably.
