The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion

Chapter 160

"That's no problem as long as Young Master Tang thinks it's suitable."

He Zhiran thought that anyway she was providing the dolls to him at cost price. Let alone ten taels, even if he sold them for twenty taels, an exorbitant price, she would not be envious.

Who knew, after Tang Mingrui stated his opinion, he was actually somewhat embarrassed.

He rubbed his hands somewhat awkwardly, an expression of wanting to speak out yet holding back.

With one look, He Zhiran could tell Tang Mingrui's discomfort and asked: "Does Young Master Tang have some difficulty?"

Seeing the other take the initiative to ask, Tang Mingrui lightly coughed twice to conceal his embarrassment.

"I won't hide it from Lady Mo, recently I've been a bit tight on money, I can't pay the goods money to you first."

On this point, He Zhiran was not worried at all. She wasn't blindly contacting Tang Mingrui.

With his future development and accomplishments, he would absolutely not deceive her over a little bit of present benefit.

"Young Master Tang doesn't need to worry, after the goods are sold, giving me the money is also fine."

Tang Mingrui had not expected her to trust him so much.

The more generous He Zhiran behaved, the more embarrassed he felt.

"I'm grateful for Lady Mo's trust."

As he spoke, Tang Mingrui had already stood up and deeply bowed to He Zhiran.

"Lady Mo, little brother has decided to cooperate with you in another way."

He Zhiran raised her brow. "What does Young Master Tang plan?"

"I, little brother, will price these dolls with the lowest being ten taels of silver each. No matter what I absolutely won't sell for lower than ten taels. In the future the profits made, I'm willing split fifty-fifty with Lady."

Since she could obtain more profit, He Zhiran naturally did not decline.

Although she could not always keep an eye out for how much silver Tang Mingrui sold the dolls for, selling each doll for at least ten taels was an undisputed fact.

As long as she personally could split five taels of silver for each doll, it would be several times more profitable than selling to the embroidery house.

"Good, we'll do as Young Master Tang says."

For Tang Mingrui making the most profit in business was best.

The reason he was willing to split fifty-fifty with He Zhiran was to repay her for saving his life.

After all, they were both exiled people. Compared to himself, life was even harder for them. He wanted that while he earned silver, he also wanted to change the life of Lord En's family.

As for Tang Mingrui's thoughts, He Zhiran had no intention of overthinking it.

Initially her reason for having Mo Jiuye rescue Tang Mingrui was mainly for convenience in doing business after arriving in the northwest.

Therefore, in her heart she only considered Tang Mingrui as wanting to have some business dealings.

Just like that, one wanted to repay kindness, one wanted to find a business partner for her family's future.

After the two reached an agreement, He Zhiran handed over all sixty dolls to Tang Mingrui.

In front of He Zhiran, Tang Mingrui checked over the number of dolls, and also wrote her a receipt.

The two once again agreed to meet here after five days.

Coming out of the tea house, the originally still sunny sky actually had large swaths of dark clouds.

Mo Jiuye looked at the weather, "Let's hurry back, it looks like it's going to rain."

Speaking of rain, this was their second rain since being exiled.

"It's often said, one autumn rain one chill. After this rain passes I'm afraid the weather will become colder." He Zhiran was somewhat worried. Everyone still sleeping in tents that couldn't preserve warmth, come night they would definitely not be able to endure it.

Mo Jiuye also had this worry.

"Looking at the current circumstances, we won't be able to leave here to keep traveling for a while. As the weather gets colder and colder, it's not really a solution to keep going on like this." He Zhiran thought for a moment then said, "Why don't we go back and discuss with Big Brother Peng, first rent a courtyard in the vicinity, sleep in the house at night, at least we can fend off the cold a bit." Mo Jiuye nodded. "Alright, when I get back I'll talk to Big Brother Peng about it.

The rain came suddenly. By the time the two returned to the camp, it had started to come down. Everyone hastily ducked into their tents to avoid the rain.

Only the He family, they didn't have tents. The surroundings were empty without anywhere to avoid the rain. Very quickly their whole bodies were soaked wet.

It was even more so like this that they resented the other families. While being drenched they also cursed with a lot of foul language.

It was as if the He family felt that only this way would their hearts feel more comfortable.

And so, their cursing voices gradually shifted from initial whispers to scolding loudly and harshly.

They seemingly felt that cursing the Mo, Fang and Xie families was not enough. In the end they inadvertently even threw in words to curse Zhang Qing.

Originally, everyone was already used to the He family's behavior and just turned a blind eye to them.

Who would expect them to be so bold as to insult the officials....

The tent Zhang Qing was in was closer to the He family's location. Hearing the curses he went over, put on his rain hat, grabbed his horse whip and harshly taught the He family a lesson.

This time, the He family honestly shut up. Each becoming withdrawn again like a turtle.

This rain came quickly and left quickly. After pouring for a bit over an hour it stopped.

Mo Jiuye came out from the tent and directly went to find Peng Wang.

"Big Brother Peng, I'm afraid we can't keep traveling for a while."

Peng Wang couldn't help but complain.

"Don't know what these people are thinking about. If they can't find Prince Heng, are we going to be trapped here forever?"

For this, Mo Jiuye also didn't know how to answer.

He was the one who killed Prince Heng, the corpse was sunk into the deep lake, it was impossible for anyone to find him.

And it was already so many days later, Emperor Shunwu should have already gotten the news by now.

He still hasn't given an order permitting them to move onward. This was enough to say that leaving here was far in the indefinite future.

Seeing that Peng Wang had already realized this logic, Mo Jiuye felt there was no need to explain too much.

"Big Brother Peng, as the weather gets colder and colder it's not a long term solution to keep living in the tents."

In fact, Peng Wang also intended to rent a courtyard to temporarily reside in.

"In a bit I'll send someone to go ask around. Find a suitable courtyard. It's just the rent for the place..."

For the criminal group they were escorted, other than the Mo family the remaining families were penniless.

Peng Wang was drunk, this was the first escort job he had encountered such.

Not only was he unable to skim some benefits, the journey had been exceedingly unlucky the whole way.

To have him pay out of his own pocket to rent a courtyard for these criminals, he could spit out a mouthful of old blood.

If it were not like this he would have wanted to rent a courtyard to properly rest for a few days already.

Mo Jiuye naturally understood Peng Wang's meaning.

The salaries of these escort officials were the same as other officials with appointments in the capital city. The reason why they were willing to endure this hardship of long distance travel was still not because they could skim some benefits from the criminals.

The result was not only did they not receive any benefits from this escort trip, they also lost the lives of two of their men.

"Big Brother Peng, there is no issue with the rental. For the officials portion of silver, we are also willing to help contribute a share. As for the Fang and Xie families, these past few days the children have earned some silver making dolls. Paying part of the rent should not be an issue."

Peng Wang had already gotten used to not getting any benefits from this trip. His earlier words were not meant to take advantage of Mo Jiuye's family either.

He was simply not willing to pay for renting housing for the criminals.
