Early in the morning, Xiao Anniang got up slowly.
Su Qing, who was outside, heard the movement and pushed the door in. A copper basin was also served, and the copper basin was placed on the side of the dresser.
Then find a water-blue skirt in the cabinet and help Xiao Anniang put it on.
Then it's about combing your hair and cleansing your face.
After cleaning up, he walked to Mrs. Xiao's yard.
In the house, Xiao Anniang accompanied Mrs. Xiao to breakfast.
Xiao Anniang wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, looked at Mrs. Xiao and said with a smile, "Mother, I'm going out for a while." Will I stay with you when I get back? ”
Mrs. Xiao hurriedly put down her chopsticks and looked at Xiao Anniang.
"An'er, where are you going? Is it okay to take your mother with you? ”
Xiao Anniang shook her head, "No." ”
Mrs. Xiao pursed her lips, and was afraid that talking too much would make her unhappy, so she only looked at Xiao Anniang and said with some reluctance, "Then An'er, you can go,"
Xiao Anniang smiled and nodded.
beckoned Su Qing and walked out of the courtyard.
Mrs. Xiao was reluctant to watch Xiao Anniang walk away from the back, and Aunt Fu was supporting her beside her.
"Lady, where are we going?" Su Qing walked beside Xiao Anniang and asked puzzled.
"Go to the outer courtyard, where is Uncle Fu?" Xiao Anniang smiled.
Su Qing nodded in confusion.
"Yes, my dad should still be at home at this time, but he'll be going to the shop in a moment."
Is the lady going to find her father? Why are you looking for your father?
Xiao Anniang nodded.
Outside a room in the outer courtyard, two young girls stood.
Uncle Fu pushed the door out and was stunned when he saw them.
After reacting, he hurriedly walked over and saluted, "Lady, but what's the matter?" ”
"It's fine." Xiao Anniang smiled and continued, "I just want to go to the shop at home to have a look." ”
Uncle Fu bowed and saluted, and looked up at Xiao Anniang in confusion.
Looking at Xiao Anniang's bright eyes and bright smile, Uncle Fu smiled.
Lady, you want to go out for a walk, right? Also, the lady hasn't been out for a long time. And that's what happened recently.
Instead, you should go out for a walk, so as not to be bored at home and thinking nonsense.
"Okay, let's go with me later." Uncle Fu said with a smile.
Xiao Anniang smiled happily.
Dingzhou is a famous and wealthy place, on a par with Jiangnan.
Both places are notoriously wealthy.
Jiangnan talents, Jiangnan women are even more famous.
Dingzhou is famous for tea! Yes, it's tea! Dingzhou is the origin of fragrant tea, and the tea produced in Dingzhou has always been sold in the past before, and it is not a climate.
Later, someone took the lead in selling tea on their own, and then everyone followed suit.
And he didn't sell Dingzhou fragrant tea, and Dingzhou fragrant tea became famous for a while.
Later, Dingzhou fragrant tea became a royal tribute, and Dingzhou fragrant tea was stirred up.
Many wealthy businessmen in Dingzhou also made their fortunes by fragrant tea, so Dingzhou is also famous for tea. It was named Dingzhou fragrant tea.
On the street, people come and go.
An old man in his fifties and sixties walked with a buffalo in his hands, his head bowed.
Walking under a tree, the old man tied the ox to the tree and sat on the ground himself. Hanging his head, the whole person looks a little wilted.
Gradually, people got around, watching the excitement, pointing and pointing.
They all whispered around the old man.
"This is Lao Li in Bahutong, right? What's going on? One of the middle-aged men asked suspiciously.
"Hey, you don't know yet, do you?" A woman turned her head and looked at the middle-aged man with disdain and said.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" The middle-aged man hurriedly asked again.
"The sick son of the old Li family is sick again," said the woman.
This is another voice interjecting.
"I heard, this time it's very serious, and if you can't get over it, you can't get over it! Lao Li's family has emptied all their family resources this time, look, isn't this bringing out all the cattle! It was a woman's voice, and there was a hint of mockery in her tone.
The middle-aged man hurriedly turned his head to see who was talking.
But I saw a woman carrying a basket.
The old man slowly raised his head, looked at the circle of people around him, and smiled bitterly.
"Does anyone want to buy a cow? Eight taels of silver will do. ”
At this time, a female voice suddenly interjected, the voice was a little small, but it did not prevent everyone from hearing it.
"Uncle, I bought your cow."
Hearing the sudden female voice, the old man and the others turned their heads to look.
I saw a man wearing a power fence, followed by a little girl and a middle-aged man.
The man walked in and continued, "Uncle, I bought your cow. ”
From the hood to the feet, I couldn't see who it was. But listening to the voice, it should be a little lady. Only the little lady will wear Mi Li when she goes out.
"Uncle, I bought your cow." Xiao Anniang said, with a hint of a smile in her voice.
The old man smiled bitterly and nodded, "Okay, it's eight taels of silver." ”
Xiao Anniang nodded, but she could only see the power fence shaking up and down a few times while wearing the power fence.
Turned his head to face Uncle Fu who was following behind.
Uncle Fu nodded helplessly, and the fence covered Xiao Anniang's face, but even if he didn't look at the lady's face, Uncle Fu knew the lady's current expression.
Forget it, buy it! It's not a lot, it's good that the lady can be happy!
"Lady, I don't have so much money on me right now! I'm going to go to the shop and get it. Uncle Fu said.
Xiao Anniang just smiled and nodded, and turned to look at the old man again.
The old man naturally heard what Uncle Fu said, and he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with you to get the money." ”
Xiao Anniang nodded.
"Hey, old Li Tou! Do you believe what people say? I'm not afraid of being deceived! Suddenly, a flirtatious voice came.
The people around laughed when they heard this, and they laughed and pointed out unscrupulously.
Xiao Anniang's footsteps paused, stopped and turned to look.
The people who followed also stopped.
Xiao Anniang raised her hand to lift the curtain of the power fence, raised her eyes to scan the circle, and then smiled.
The people around saw her lift the curtain, revealing her somewhat emaciated face.
What a little lady! This little lady is so small! But why buy cows?
It should be poor old Li Tou, I want to help him, right?! These little ladies are like this, they always can't help but be kind and want to help when they see poor people!
Xiao Anniang smiled and said slowly, "My surname is Xiao." ”
With that, he turned around and walked in the other direction. followed by Uncle Fu and Su Qing, as well as the old man holding the cow.
The people in the back were stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
What's wrong with the surname Xiao? There are more people with the surname Xiao! The surname Xiao is amazing, huh? There are no liars with the surname Xiao?
Surname Xiao? A middle-aged man in the back came back to his senses and slapped him violently.
"Oops, I remember!"
The people around them turned their heads to look and rolled their eyes when they saw who was speaking.
This person is famous in the local area, but he doesn't have a good reputation! He is famous for his idleness and lack of business! It's still a local tyrant!
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the middle-aged man smiled proudly, raised his head and paced two steps behind his back.
"Do you know who that was just now?" The man was a little proud, "That's the Xiao family!" That one just now was the little lady of the Xiao family! ”
The people around them rolled their eyes again and again when they heard this, this is treating them as fools?! The Xiao family? People just said it themselves! Do you need to say it again?
The middle-aged man saw that the people around him just sighed disapprerovantly and was about to disperse.
I was suddenly a little anxious.
"Xiao family! That's the Xiao family! That Xiao family! That's the little lady of the Xiao family! He hurriedly shouted.
The men didn't care when they heard the man's shouts, and they all walked away without stopping.
The Xiao family? What is the Xiao family, there are many people surnamed Xiao!
The Xiao family? That Xiao family? Suddenly, a woman paused!
Hurriedly turned back to look at the man and asked, "Xiao family?" But the Xiao family? ”
When the man saw someone ask him, he smiled proudly, "Remembered?" It's that Xiao family! ”
