C23 Young Master will be a Fireman

These words could not be considered as praise, but Shen Jingli, who was very carefree, did not catch the deeper meaning behind it. He even excitedly patted Liu Hsingzu's shoulders and sighed emotionally, "I was really shocked just now.

Liu Hsingzu was the only son of the Liu Dong family, he had been with his father at the shopping mall since childhood, and normally liked to be friends with talented people.

"Brother Shen is quite knowledgeable, I'm afraid I'm inferior." After hearing Shen Jingli's wise suggestions, Liu Hsingzu felt that he was someone to befriend.

Shen Jingli smiled slightly, he did not want these words, and changed the topic to talking about his own difficulties. After telling Liu Hsingzu about what happened to him recently, Shen Jingli asked about the tofu sales, "Brother Liu, are you interested in putting down the tofu products?"

Seeing him like this, Shen Jingli told him about the tofu workshop and the soy sauce shop, and also introduced him to stinky tofu, stinky pot, cold mixed rotting skin, tofu, youtiao, and other food that he had never even heard of before.

The reason why Liu Hsingzu was able to take over Cloud Sea Restaurant's business at such a young age was mainly because of his foresight and charisma, and when he heard Shen Jingli's idea, he knew that it was a profitable business deal. Furthermore, he had his own considerations in his heart, so he said: "I can buy this tofu recipe …"

Shen Jingli could hear the hidden meaning in his words, and kept laughing as he continued. Liu Hsingzu had made it clear that he wanted to use the recipe as a favor. He could open a tofu workshop, but Shen Jingli could not continue to sell tofu on the streets.

"No problem." He thought it was some big problem.

The two talked for more than an hour before Liu Hsingzu happily sent Shen Jingli out the door. He also sent a waiter to hire a carriage for them to send him and Sister-in-law Chen back.

Shen Jingli did not immediately return to the village. Instead, he went to the grocery store to buy some soy sauce.

"Shen, how did you get the money?" Sister-in-law Chen looked at the door of the grocery store and asked in confusion. "Aunty Mu used to go to Zhang Ji, saying that there were some acquaintances there that could be cheaper."

Shen Jingli did not know about the town's two grocery stores, nor did he know that the Mu Family had been buying things from Zhang Ji. He only saw Qian Ji first and planned to buy things from him.

After Qian Ji bought the soy sauce, vinegar candy, and two bundles of dried kelp, Shen Jingli went to Zhang Ji to buy two kilograms of salt, and then went to Doctor Lee's infirmary.

When Sister-in-law Chen saw the infirmary, her heart skipped a beat. She supported Shen Jingli, her face full of worry.

She cursed herself in her heart. She clearly knew that Shen was pregnant, but she still let him toil so hard.

"No, help me catch the medicine." Shen Jingli said casually.

Sister-in-law Chen heaved a sigh of relief. She looked at Shen Jingli for a moment and realised that his face had lost a lot of weight. She felt her heart ache. The heavens were truly not fair.

Seeing Shen Jingli coming over, Doctor Lee immediately ordered the servants to take care of the infirmary, while he led Shen Jingli and Sister-in-law Chen to the backyard.

"Mufu, there's news about the Ice and Snow Lotus that you told me to pay attention to."

After he had enough money, Shen Jingli asked Doctor Lee to help him look for information on the Ice Snow Lotus. Doctor Lee's son was a medicine merchant, and had obtained a lot of ingredients and connections, the Doctor Lee asked him to help find the information.

The news came at the beginning, that the Snow Lotus was monopolized by the Bai Clan, the largest medical family in the capital. If they rashly bought it in large quantities, they would definitely attract the attention of the Mu Family, and they might send people to keep an eye on it early on, afraid that they would earn enough money to buy the Snow Lotus.

In order to prevent this situation from happening, Shen Jingli had spent a large sum of money to ask Doctor Lee's son to help him buy it. Hearing Doctor Lee mention this matter, he couldn't help but become a little excited and hurriedly asked: "Did you get it?"

Mu Chen said that he had a good foundation and the poison had mostly been forced out. He could recover even if it was properly taken care of and he was not in a hurry to ask for the ice and snow lotus, but he couldn't. His body was already weak to begin with and with his child, he was afraid that the poison would harm him.

"I bought two." The Doctor Lee led them into his pharmacy and took out a box from a medicine cabinet. "You weren't deeply poisoned, but after taking two stalks of Ice and Snow Lotus and recuperating carefully, you would be able to recover."

In addition to the travel fees he had been given, it would probably cost him one thousand and three hundred gold. In the end, he was only able to take care of one person, it was really expensive, and the moment he thought about how he would be thrown out of the Profound Sky Sect before the money he earned even entered his pockets, Shen Jingli couldn't help but curse the bunch of bastards on Mu Family.

Shen Jingli was unable to pay the full amount in one go, he only needed one Ice Snow Lotus and a IOU. After that, he had the Doctor Lee take his pulse and check the condition of his body.

His health was not bad, the Doctor Lee told him not to overwork himself, and also gave him some Body Nourishment Medicinal Solution. After he finished with all of that, Shen Jingli took out the salt Zhang Ji bought for the Doctor Lee to check, and sure enough, there was poison inside.

Shen Jingli supported the Sister-in-law Chen saying that the Mu Yang family knew Zhang Ji's people, which was why he had his suspicions, he did not think that those people were actually so despicable and shameless to the point of using the Mu Yang family's trust, if Mu Chen knew about this, he would definitely see blood.

After paying the driver and thanking the Doctor Lee, Shen Jingli and the Sister-in-law Chen went back in the carriage at Cloudy Sea Restaurant.

Shen Jingli was holding onto the prescription given by Doctor Lee, squatting down was not right. He was afraid of the child in his stomach, seeing that Mu Chen had nothing better to do, he ordered him to start a fire.

The dignified Mu Family Young Master was being ordered to burn in the kitchen. Mu Chen's face was extremely ugly, but Shen Jingli was still picky about it.

"You have some skill in lighting a fire, okay?" "Don't stuff the wood into it. It will go out." This guy had already completely forgotten. The first time he used firewood, he almost burned the house down. It was Mu Chen's first time doing this, but it was already pretty good.

Mu Chen's face darkened even more. From birth till now, it was his first time doing such menial work, to be able to do such a thing, it was already very good, but he actually dared to say such things, he truly had guts. In the entire Great Yan Dynasty, for the person who dared to order his husband around, he should be the only one, right?

Mu Chen really wanted to ask him, did he really understand the meaning of "three, four, three"? However, thinking back to what Shen Jingli had done these past few days, he felt that he probably really didn't understand. When he looked at him supporting his waist with an uncomfortable expression, he suppressed the displeasure in his heart. With the current situation in his family, he really didn't have the qualifications to put on the airs of a young master.

Sighing with resignation, Mu Chen took out some firewood according to Shen Jingli's instructions and set the firewood in the furnace free, making it easier to burn.

Shen Jingli saw that Mu Chen's face was filled with displeasure, but had no choice but to accept his fate, and could not help but find it funny. Come to think of it, Mu Shisi was actually a good man, he was not as pedantic as the other young masters, and would not act like a great young master, acting arrogantly towards him.

Looking at it, Shen Jingli couldn't help but become infatuated. A good-looking man with good character was probably the only thing he had gained from transmigrating to this world.

Seeing that the fire was not bad, he got up to move around. When he turned his head, he saw that Shen Jingli was infatuated with him.

Shen Jingli seemed to like his face. As long as he was free, he would always stare at, drooling in desire.

"Why do you keep looking at me like that?" He didn't think that Shen Jingli liked him that much. Even if there was, it was because Shen Jingli liked his face.

After being caught red-handed, Shen Jingli no longer bothered with them due to embarrassment. Instead, he answered righteously, "I like to see it, what do you think?"

Mu Chen was choked by his imposing aura, wasn't it just asking a question? It was necessary to fight him. Not in the mood to bicker with him, Mu Chen threw a few pieces of firewood into the furnace.

"Fourteen, I have something to tell you." After thinking it over, Shen Jingli still decided to tell Mu Chen about someone poisoning his food with salt. In any case, once he and Mu Jin started drinking the medicine, he would definitely find out.

"Yes." Mu Chen didn't pay too much attention. He thought he was going to talk about the Ice and Snow Lotus.

"When Doctor Lee came to take a look at you, he also took my pulse. He said that I was poisoned too, so I took out everything in the house for him to take a look. Shen Jingli said in a clear and concise manner.

A thin piece of firewood in Mu Chen's hand broke into two, and a pair of eyes that were filled with killing intent stared straight at him. Shen Jingli felt a chill behind him, and was thinking whether or not Mu Chen suspected him, and wanted to put him to death when Mu Chen had already turned his head, and broke another piece of firewood.

When Shen Jingli heard that sound, he instantly felt a little pain in his waist.

Although he knew that Mu Chen was angry, Shen Jingli still said, "Doctor Lee said that my poison is relatively shallow and that two ice lotuses would be able to fully recover." This means that these two ice lotuses are mine and don't have your share.

"Yes." Mu Chen answered, he did not know if he understood what he meant.

Seeing his unsightly expression, Shen Jingli dared not speak further, found an excuse and left the kitchen.

The moment he stepped out of the door, he heard a sound from the inside. The wall even shook for a moment, and Mu Chen was truly furious in his heart, that group of people from the Mu Family truly did not care about face, in order to get more powerful people, he was not satisfied with sending the three of them to this crappy village. He wanted them all to die, no wonder he said that his body was unable to recover at all …

A cold killing intent flashed past Mu Chen's eyes as he tightly clenched his fists. He had endured this for far too long, and since that group of people did not retract their killing intent, he did not mind making them suffer.

After making the medicine, he watched as Shen Jingli and Mu Jin finished drinking. Mu Chen then walked in and took out the written script, and said to Shen Jingli: I'm going to town.

After he stopped eating the poisonous salt, Mu Chen's body became a lot better. He could even walk while carrying wind, so he did not need to worry that he would faint halfway.

After sending Mu Chen out the door, Shen Jingli took the opportunity to go take a nap. After his mood relaxed, many symptoms of pregnancy appeared, especially when he was deeply addicted to sleep.
