Chapter 93: Cotton Seeds

Today's weather is clear, it can be regarded as a clear sky, but Xia Qing, who stayed in Mu Mansion, has nothing to do, after thinking about it, she doesn't care that she is wearing a brocade silk jacket skirt, and she reaches out to carry the mobile nest of US dollars, so she opens the door and wants to go to the city to walk around. Looking at the supplies in the market, who would have expected that when I walked into the alley, I would listen to a few rough women talking at the goose wing gate engraved with "Hu Fu" on the side.

"You say, is that person a young lady or a girl?"

"Dressed in satin, there is no doubt that she is a young lady!"

These two sentences rushed into her ears, Xia Qing suspected that she was talking about herself, you know, before and after, left and right, there was really only one person and one cat out of the door,

"When you go out alone, in addition to the subordinates who help people, you have seen the young lady of a large family who can go out alone, I think it is a subordinate!"

"Who's so rich, it's really useless to spend, and the next person is also wearing silk!"

"Isn't it the Ministry of Industry Guan family in front, I heard that it is going to be upgraded, and the feng shui of this house is excellent!"

Xia Qing realized that no woman in this Jin Dynasty would go out alone. This did not match the etiquette, and Xia Qing, who was used to being independent, soon woke up on the road in the doubtful eyes of pedestrians and roadside shopkeepers, and went home less than a quarter of an hour after going out for the first time. As soon as she returned to the Mu Mansion, Xia Qing immediately called Zhuang Niang to change her look, but she really didn't expect that this ancient rule was quite strict!

"Zhuang Niang, comb a man's hair for me. ”

Zhuang Niang nodded yes, and quickly combed Xia Qing's hair, understanding that Xia Qing wanted to dress up as a little Taoist, so she could go to the street alone.

"Master, they are all old slaves who didn't think about it carefully. Why don't you wear women's clothes and take Zhuang Niang out?" Mama put away the fox fur cloak for Xia Qing on the side, and explained with a sorry face.

"It's okay Mama, I didn't notice it myself. What you want to do today, it is not very convenient to take Zhuang Niang. ”

"That master might as well pretend to be a little girl from an ordinary family, this little Taoist priest is still not pretending," Mama reminded dutifully.

As soon as she heard Mama say this, Xia Qing immediately understood, and a little Taoist priest bought the pear blossom dock in Happy Horse Village. You don't need to ask much about it, so it's better for Mu Mansion to stay away from the little Taoist.

The purpose of coming out this time was mainly to buy some muslin cloth, and all the weaving in the space was silk satin and the like. Too tall, the weaver weaves all kinds of brocade all day long, Xia Qing came out this time, one is to buy cotton seeds, and the other is to buy some muslin. Seeds are prepared to be planted in space, and the whole space is like a small extraterrestrial world, which can be completely self-sufficient, provided that there are all kinds of species that are not available in space. There is a large mulberry field in the space, and the silk is all self-produced, but there is no cotton, so this time Xia Qing decided to buy some cotton seeds, of course, there are some vegetable seeds that are not in the space, etc.

This is a shopping list that took Xia Qing a lot of effort to put together.

The little Taoist priest is not appropriate, Xia Qing asked the makeup lady to make her hair shape into a little hair that little girls often comb. She changed into a green muslin skirt, a long waistcoat with trim, and a cloak embroidered with plums, which was a must-have dress for a girl with a little money. Of course, the thousand-faced sticker is still worn, and Mama is relieved to see it, after all, she goes out alone, in case something happens, it will be fine to flash into the space, at most it is just a loss of a thousand-face sticker.

Xia Qing appeared outside the gate again. There is no shortage of dollars in the hand. It looks like a kun bag that a modern woman carries in her hand. Now that the dollar has grown up a lot, and it will run around when it goes out, Xia Qing specially designed a cat nest to attract it, so that it does not run around and is easy to manage. Of course, it's not the vegetable basket given by the aunt in the third prince's courtyard. The basket had long since turned to ashes, and now this one was woven by a puppeteer craftsman from the bamboo in the space, shaped like a semicircle in the shape of a bun cut in half, with holes cut at both ends, and the openings were wrapped in soft satin to make them soft. It is convenient for Xia Qing to reach in, you can hold the US dollars inside, the nest is covered with soft cotton cushions, the big hole on the front is facing in, the US dollars are in and out from the big hole, when Xia Qing is holding this cage, the big mouth is towards Xia Qing's waist, if there is wind and rain or something, it will not blow the US dollar, of course, the entry and exit are not free.

Walking on the road, as long as the dollar is not discovered, no one expected that Xia Qing could hold something in her arms like a hand stove was not a stove, but a cat. There is also a soft silk woven handle on the top of the nest, Xia Qing can be used as a cat cage to carry it in her hand, and the whole basket is very ergonomic design, light and handy. And this bamboo is also rare, not to mention the overall emerald green, but also with gold wire lines, it seems to be a small bamboo basket with a lid in the hand, which is very eye-catching, Xia Qing also put a purse with silver coins under the cushion.

This dual-purpose nest made Xia Qing and the dollar like it very much. One is willing to carry it at any time, and the other is willing to lie down in it at any time, the dollar grows quickly, and this nest is afraid that it will not be able to support it until the New Year. The craftsman is now rushing to make a bigger model.

Xia Qing, who changed her clothes, went out and went to the street with her original face without the thousand-faced sticker, (the thousand-faced sticker is dedicated to Xia Qing in Happy Valley) The mouthy women on both sides of Tianshuijing Lane had nothing to say, just watched this little girl walk by, hum, no matter how new your clothes are, aren't they also cotton, what are you lame? and carried a weird basket on the street. The two didn't see where Xia Qing came from, and they suspected that it must be a slave of the Guan family.

The first time Xia Qing went to the street, she heard that the Holy Majesty decreed that Taizhou would be exempted from taxes for four to ten years. It's funny to listen to, this is all a tax from six years ago, in other words, this person who believes in Buddhism is really soft-hearted, Xia Qing thought of the emperor who was suspected of being Sang Renqing, the emperor, you are so generous, it makes people worry Wow, there doesn't seem to be much silver taels in the treasury of Jin Chu.

Xia Qing, who was thinking about it while shopping, found a seed store, cotton seeds are not easy to get in the north, fortunately, the country is really prosperous, the goods in the north and south are complete, and when she walked to the third seed store, Xia Qing bought cotton seeds, there are not many seeds in the store, all of them add up, and there is only the amount of five acres of land that can be planted, Xia Qing didn't dare to say the price, so she bought this cotton seed back. The business of the seed store is generally good in the spring, and Xia Qing is also a big customer, and then, Xia Qing bought five acres of artichoke, five acres of sweet potatoes, five acres of corn, plus one acre of various pepper seeds, and tomato seeds. That's just half an acre. It's all things that are not available in the space, and as for the many green vegetable seeds that the owner of the seed store said, they are not expensive, so I bought some of them. The shopkeeper of the seed store also attached a page of planting elements to each seed! This made Xia Qing feel a lot more convenient. (To be continued.) )
