Chapter 393 You are not allowed to think like this in the future 5 Sister
She agreed to Lan Xin's request, but she would never keep this time bomb by her side to avoid unnecessary trouble, so she could only marry as far away as possible.
"Yes, Master." After Shen Jing finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment and asked Shen Ruolan, "What about Lan Ruer?"
Shen Ruolan said indifferently, "Let her go. If she wants to get married, find her a good family. If she doesn't want to, just send her to Nanfeng Village. Don't worry about the rest."
"Yes, I'll prepare it right away." After Shen Jing finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Shen Ruolan looked at his back, hesitated for a moment and said, "Go to Ji Ning to get twenty taels of silver as dowry for the two of them."
Shen Ruolan finally softened her heart. Thinking that the women at this time were having a difficult time, she tried her best to help, and the rest of the journey was up to them.
Shen Jing felt warmed in the heart after hearing what his sister said. His sister looked cold, but she was actually very kind and warm-hearted. Selling himself to her might be the best choice he had ever made in his life.
Shen Jing bowed deeply to her sister and said softly, "Yes, Master."
Lan Xin, who was lying on the ground, heard that Fifth Sister gave her ten taels of silver as a dowry. She looked at her with gratitude and said, "Fifth Sister, I will never forget your great kindness!"
After she finished speaking, she kowtowed to her sister several times, stood up, and followed her brother away, looking back every few steps.
Lan Ruer, who was waiting outside the door, saw Lan Xin coming out crying. She looked at her anxiously and asked, "Lan Xin, what's wrong? Did Fifth Sister bully you?"
Lan Xin suddenly scolded Lan Ruer, "Eighth sister, be careful with your words!"
After she finished speaking, she paused and said, "You are not allowed to think about Fifth Sister like this in the future."
Lan Ruer was bewildered by Lan Xin's yelling. Seeing her serious expression, she asked her, "Xin'er, what did Fifth Sister tell you? Do we not have to leave?"
After hearing what her eighth sister said, Lan Xin looked at her with a complicated expression and said, "Eighth sister, have you ever thought about what kind of life you want to live in the future?"
Lan Ruer looked confused and asked, "In the future? Will there be a future for me?"
Lan Xin looked at her and advised, "Eighth sister, we are not young anymore. While our father can't control us, we should make plans for the rest of our lives."
Although they got married without their father's permission, their fifth sister and seventh brother made the decision for them, so even if their father came looking for them in the future, he would not do anything to them.
On the contrary, if they got married without permission, they would be in trouble when their father came looking for them in the future. Now they have their older sisters and brothers to protect them, so they are not afraid.
Moreover, her sister also gave them a dowry of ten taels of silver. Although it was not much, for an ordinary family, it was enough for food and drink for several years. As long as they were not lazy, their future life would definitely not be too bad.
"Xin'er, are you talking about getting married?" Lan Ru'er shook her head vigorously and said, "No, this place is full of mud legs, I don't want to marry here."
With her current status, as long as she returns to the capital, at worst she can marry a poor scholar, or become a concubine of a wealthy family. Anyway, it is much better than marrying a peasant with no future here.
Seeing this, Lan Xin didn't say anything more, but sincerely wished her: "Then Lan Xin wishes Eighth Sister all her wishes come true."
After saying that, she said to Shen Jing: "Seventh Brother, let's go."
Shen Jing looked unhappy after hearing what Eighth Sister said, but everyone has their own destiny. Since she had already made her choice, he couldn't force her. He said to Lan Xin, "It's getting late today. You two can stay in my room for one night and leave early tomorrow morning."
"Okay." Lan Xin naturally had no objection.
Lan Ruer, on the other hand, asked Lan Xin with a curious look on her face: "Xin'er, what did you tell Fifth Sister? Is she going to marry you off?"
Lan Xin suddenly said with a sullen face: "Eighth sister, you are not allowed to think about Fifth sister like this, otherwise, I will break up with you."
Lan Xin finally understood why her fifth sister wanted to marry her off far away, because Lan Ruer was really annoying, and keeping them around would bring disaster to herself.
Lan Ruer pouted and said, "If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. Is it necessary to get so angry?"
Shen Jing couldn't listen any longer. He looked at Lan Ruer and scolded, "Lan Ruer, from now on, please shut up. If I hear you say anything bad about the master again, get out of the mountain immediately."
Lan Ruer was startled by her seventh brother's roar. She nodded and said quickly, "Okay, okay, I'll shut up immediately."
In Shen Ruolan's study, Ji Ning asked her, "Master, do you need to send someone to keep an eye on the two girls?"
Shen Ruolan was silent for a moment and said, "Well, send someone to watch over it, especially Lan Ruer."
"Yes," Ji Ning said, and she handed the account book she had sorted out to her master and said, "Master, this is the account for the past two months, take a look."
Shen Ruolan took it and opened it to take a look. Seeing that Cang Lingcheng's business had grown by leaps and bounds in just two months, she looked up at Ji Ning and asked, "Why is Cang Lingcheng's business suddenly so much bigger?"
Ji Ning glanced at the account book and said to his master, "Master, Lu Kai said that there are too many people from the towns near Cang Ling City who come to buy tofu, and asked me if I could make more. I thought that we harvested a lot of soybeans this year, so I decided to give him 3,000 kilograms of soybeans every month, so the business picked up immediately."
Shen Ruolan nodded and said, "Well, since it has been dialed, give him this amount next time. Don't add more in the future, because I want to keep the extra soybeans to continue making soy sauce."
When Ji Ning heard that she had to make soy sauce, she asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Master, when will your soy sauce be ready?"
Her master dried hundreds of jars of soybeans in one go last year. Now a year has passed, and no one knows what they have become.
When Shen Ruolan heard Ji Ning asking about the soy sauce, she smiled and said, "The soy sauce is already made. I was originally planning to filter the soy sauce and cook dishes for everyone after the autumn harvest, but who knew a series of things would happen later."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she sighed deeply and said, "Fortunately, it's all over. I will filter out the soy sauce tomorrow and let everyone taste it."
After hearing what her master said, Ji Ning deliberately made a bitter face and said, "Oh, Master, why are you saying this at this time? I will definitely not be able to sleep again tonight."
Ever since Ji Ning followed her master, not only has her taste for food become more sophisticated, but every time she hears that her master is going to cook something delicious, she gets so excited that she can't sleep in the middle of the night.
"You are such a foodie." After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she ordered her, "Go, ask the kitchen to catch a pig and kill it, so that we can have an extra meal tonight."
"Okay." When Ji Ning heard that there would be an extra meal tonight, she ran away.
Although there are already hundreds of pigs of all sizes in their village, they generally do not kill them at will when the master is not at home.
So their master had been away from home for more than two months, and they hadn't seen meat for more than two months. Now when they heard that the pig was going to be slaughtered, they ran faster than anyone else.
