Chapter 86: Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors

"The real family? Is it the real scholar's family?" Jiang Shuyue asked in surprise.

It had only been a few days since we moved here, so why did the Zhen family want to make friends with the Jiang family? She was surprised. After all, many people didn't know who lived in Jiang Mansion.

Qiu Ju put the last flower into the porcelain vase, "It's the butler of the True University Scholar's family. He said he wanted to congratulate us on our move."

Jiang Shuyue went to the small hall and looked at the gift sent by the Zhen family. It was an exquisite root carving ornament.

While Qiu Ju was collecting the gifts into the warehouse, Jiang Shuyue took out some red ginseng from the space.

When Qiu Ju came back, Jiang Shuyue had packed the red ginseng in a brocade box.

"Qiu Ju, go to Zhen Mansion yourself."

Qiu Ju glanced at the brocade box on the table and immediately understood. She smiled like a fox and said, "I understand that it is human nature to treat people with courtesy."

The villain in her heart clapped her hands and applauded the young lady. This was the right thing to do. The young lady might even be able to hit a real young man when she throws the embroidered ball in the future.

Qiu Ju walked out of the gate and went straight to Zhenfu behind Qingyunzhai.

The housekeeper of Zhenfu personally accepted the gift in return.

The housekeeper smiled and said: "It is said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Mr. Jiang is too polite. My old lady has been feeling unwell recently. In a few days, the old lady will definitely come to visit me."

"The villain's surname is Zhen. It was given by the master. I have a message for Mr. and Mrs. Jiang. Our two families will be traveling more in the future. If you need any help, just let me know."

The real butler smiled warmly, and Qiu Ju was stunned.

...Master Jiang?

"No, true housekeeper, you are mistaken. We in Jiang Mansion only have young ladies, not lords."

"Miss Jiang is a female householder?" This time it was the real housekeeper's turn to look confused.

The big house opposite is worth a lot of money. It's really amazing that a girl can buy it.

Qiu Ju said goodbye and went home with a smile on her face.

Qiu Ju happily walked to the street. Suddenly, a familiar figure jumped into her eyes.

"Why did they come?"

While he was stunned, he saw the housekeeper of Shangshu Mansion walking into Qingyun Zhai with a few servants.

Qiu Ju quickly ducked aside to observe.

After a while, a few people came out and went to an inn not far away.

Seeing the housekeeper of Shangshu Mansion walking away with a few people, Qiu Ju touched her purse and luckily there was some silver in it.

Qiu Ju quickly walked into Qingyunzhai. When the boy saw her entering, he greeted her with a smile on his face and asked enthusiastically: "Do you want to read a book or buy the four treasures of the study?"

The dress Qiu Ju wore was made of thin Huanhua brocade. In order to support the girl's appearance, she spent almost all her money on it.

The servant couldn't tell from her clothes that she was a maid.

Qiu Ju said boldly: "I want a blank piece of paper, the best kind."

"Okay, girl, please wait a moment."

The best white paper is placed on the top shelf.

Soon, the boy took out a piece of white paper. As he wrapped it, the boy said, "You are so lucky, this is the only piece of white paper left in the study."

Qiu Ju asked the price, handed over the broken silver, and asked with a smile: "A few people left empty-handed just now. Do they want to buy more?"

The boy shook his head, "No, they were looking for someone. They took a portrait and asked me if I had seen the girl come to the study to buy anything."

After the boy finished speaking, he smiled at Qiu Ju and said, "The portrait is of a very beautiful girl."

Qiu Ju took the wrapped white paper and thanked her, walked to the door and took a look into the room where the scholar was reading.

I saw Nangong Zeyue sitting at the desk, Sui Sui sitting at the desk, and several scholars smiling happily around talking to Sui Sui.

There were bursts of laughter in the room, Qiu Ju's eyebrows arched, the young master was so cute, he was popular wherever he went.

Qiu Ju didn't go in to disturb him and walked quickly towards the opposite side.

"Miss, guess who I saw?" Qiu Ju entered the room, handed the things in her hand to Lan'er, and walked quickly towards Jiang Shuyue.

Jiang Shuyue put down the medical book in her hand, raised her lips and smiled, "Who else could it be? The Jiang family."

"Young lady is smart. You guessed it right. It's the butler of Shangshu Mansion. He took the portrait and led his servants to look for you from door to door in the study and inn."

"What's there to guess? The Wu family must have broken off the engagement, and Jiang Jiaojiao wants to settle a score with me." Jiang Shuyue said lightly and lightly.

Qiu Ju looked gloating, "Jiang Jiaojiao is twenty years old this year. She was disowned by the Wu family, so she has no choice but to get married."

Jiang Shuyue stretched out her arms, "Qiu Ju, go and clean up. Cangyun has gone out to deliver a message. Call Gao Mu and let's go out and find a shop."

"Miss, do you still want to open a medical clinic?"

Jiang Shuyue nodded, "Of course, in such a huge mansion, you have to make money, right?"

She is developing medicine to treat epidemics and does not open a medical clinic. If she suddenly comes up with epidemic prescriptions in the future, it would be too sudden.

Qiu Ju asked worriedly: "What should I do if I meet someone from Shangshu Mansion outside later?"

"Let's go out openly. I don't want to eat the rice from Jiang Zhengming's family now. What do I have to worry about?"

Qiu Ju thought about it again, yes, she was still looking forward to it. When she met the housekeeper of Shangshu Mansion who was arrogant and disdainful, she would have to give him a few words.

Jiang Shuyue sat on the carriage and looked up at both sides of the street. She walked two nearby streets and finally stopped at Baicao Street, not far from Guihua Street.

Qiu Ju saw the young lady looking at the shops on both sides of the street, and she suggested, "Miss, I have already counted them. There are already three medical clinics on this street. Let's open a fourth one."

Jiang Shuyue understood what Qiuju meant, and she asked back: "If you are hungry, would you go to the street with only one restaurant or the street with many restaurants?"

Qiuju said without thinking: "Of course, go to the street with more restaurants."

"Miss, that's not right. Can eating be the same as taking medicine?"

"Why not? No matter what business, people always compare prices."

Gao Mu also understood it and said the key point, "Miss, I will go to the dental clinic now. It's too hot outside. Let's go back to the mansion and wait for the dental clinic to send the brochure and then slowly choose."

Jiang Shuyue nodded, "Okay, let the dental clinic know when the carriage passes by."

Just when Jiang Shuyue stepped on the stepping stool, she saw a crowd of people on the street.

"Get out of the way, someone fainted again."

Jiang Shuyue retracted her foot and looked over, only to see a group of people carrying several people to the clinic.

"Miss, those people look like that group of people."

Qiu Ju saw the clue, "No wonder they look familiar, they are bandits."

"Gao Mu, go and see what's going on?"

Gao Mu walked quickly to the clinic opposite.

As soon as he reached the door of the clinic, he heard a man's anxious voice saying, "Doctor, please help us. He hasn't eaten for two days and has been kneeling for most of the day. I wonder if he has heatstroke or is hungry?"

Another man said, "Jingzhao Yin is too much. We have been kneeling for most of the day and didn't give us a sip of water. It's really a waste of life!"

The doctor hurriedly asked the medicine boy to bring water, and Gao Mu turned and left.

Listening to Gao Mu's story about the refugees, Jiang Shuyue was silent for a moment.

She waved to Gao Mu and explained it like this.

Gao Mu widened his eyes, "Little, Miss, is this okay?"
