The two rode back as usual, and the two didn't want to go back, like two sneaking out to play with children wandering the streets, the autumn market was full of farmers who came to catch the market, when Yuehua was in the north, he liked lotus seed soup, but the lotus seed soup in the north was a very expensive thing, and occasionally put a few when boiling porridge, and when he got here, he knew that the dried lotus seeds were so cheap, dozens of dollars a catty, and he bought three or four catties at once, Yuehua also wanted to buy and was pulled by He Heng: "Let's eat these first." ”

"If you look cheap, you want to buy it."

These dried lotus seeds can be boiled into porridge or stewed soup to drink, and one pound can be eaten for several months, Yuehua bought three or four catties at once, which is indeed a bit too much.

"Why are there so few foreign merchants here?

I remember when I was a child, when my kidnapper took me through Suzhou and Hangzhou, the market was full of merchants, and when I went to other places, the prices were low but it was rare to see merchants to receive the goods. ”

"I loved to travel when I was young, and I also lived in Suzhou and Hangzhou for a period of time, and met merchants.

Suzhou and Hangzhou are rich, and the general merchants like to sell some silk cloth and tea from Suzhou and Hangzhou to Jingcheng to sell, and then from Jingcheng to bring some northern leather goods to Suzhou and Hangzhou to sell, and they all carry goods back and forth, and they make money back and forth.

And all the way from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the people are rich, the people have money and are willing to buy things from outside, sometimes the merchants bring goods from Suzhou to Jingcheng, people have not arrived in Jingcheng, the goods are taken off.

Although we are here is the border pass, but the Jiangnan region is also rich in tea and silk, but this side is poor, the merchants bring goods to sell and sell, can only run unilaterally, the interests are greatly discounted, you must know that the merchants are on the road most of the year, from here to sell goods to Jiangsu and Zhejiang fast also have to delay at least three or four months, a year at most can only go back and forth three or four times, they would rather buy goods from Suzhou and Hangzhou with higher prices than to the border and elsewhere, the risk is smaller.

In addition, the border area is not very stable, there are many bandits, these bandits are asking for money and not their masters, if there is no friend in black and white, which merchant dares to come out and run, I let you go to the west of the city last time, that place is a bazaar, but most of the merchants there are locals here and, more than some dealings with bandits, what do you ask these for? ”

"It's nothing, I didn't come to the border before, I thought it was a broken place, but when I came, I found out that it was actually a rich place, and the things here were sold cheaply, if it was the same as Suzhou and Hangzhou, the trade routes would be smooth, and the people would also benefit."

He Heng smiled: "You have thought about it, and others have also thought of it, if the bandits are cleared, the trade route will probably be unblocked, but now that Dali has not been cleaned up, how can I take care of that end." ”

"I'm just mentioning it casually, I don't understand this, so I'll tell you."

The two of them were idle all the way, Yuehua was shopping all the way, and she couldn't take it herself, so she stuffed it into He Heng's hand.

When she was a child, she liked to blow candy, at that time where was the kidnapper willing to buy it for her, she sometimes watched the children of other people's families around the window for a money, buy a joy on the street, she was particularly envious, this blowing candy is about to become a knot in her heart, it is easy to see a seller of blowing candy, she walked over and sold a blowing candy, holding something in her left hand, and eating blowing candy with her right hand.

"You give me your things, and after a while, the candy will be crushed, and be careful of dropping it." As he spoke, he put the things in his two hands together and went to pick up Yuehua's things.

Yuehua bought a lot of things, just three or four catties of dried lotus seeds, although it was light but many, a small sack.

Although Nanbianer produces tea, Nanbianer likes to use red dates and sesame sugar tea, and Yuehua is afraid of guests coming to the house from time to time, so she buys a large bag of sesame seeds and red dates.

The Li family and his wife have been at home for a while, Yuehua saw that the two of them were quite diligent, there was no extra cloth at home, and when they passed by the cloth village, they bought two pieces of cloth and cut clothes with the two of them, both of them had things in their hands, especially He Heng, who was dragging three small sacks in his right hand, and two pieces of cloth in his right hand, a big man was carrying so many things, no shape, Yuehua was a little embarrassed, and he was going to take the small bag of sesame seeds in his hand again.

Yuehua felt that she was like a child, she was a lot older, she bought a bunch of blowing candy and ate it in her hand, He Heng didn't stop her, fortunately she didn't meet an acquaintance on the road, if she met an acquaintance, this face would probably have to be thrown to her grandmother's house.

"I'll just take it when I'm done."

He Heng ignored Yuehua's words, and reached out to snatch the things in her hand: "Obedient, give it to me, and continue to eat with your hands!" I saw a cold noodle stall in front of me: "Go and sit down there, let's go after eating." ”

Yuehua has to eat cold noodles every time she comes out, in fact, she doesn't particularly like to eat this kind of cool things, so she had to listen to He Heng's words and sit down, one person asked for a bowl of cold noodles, and the cold noodles were served, Yuehua brought the cold noodles to He Heng: "I don't want to eat it, you eat it for me!" ”

"Done!"

He Heng really ate two bowls of cold noodles by himself, went home and handed over the cloth to the Li family, and asked her to cut the clothes, and the Li family was happy as if something: "I'm worried about Mrs. Labor, what old clothes does Mrs. have worn, just put on one set of me, and I bother you to buy it yourself." ”

Yuehua is very thrifty, He Heng was promoted, she added a few good clothes to herself, she still wears old shirts and skirts, it is rare for a seven-grade official wife to be so thrifty, but she is very thrifty, but she is not stingy with the maid and daughter-in-law below, the cloth bought for the Li family is a very good muslin cloth, the color is bright, and the dyeing is very even, not the kind of defective product that does not slip away, and her own home-style clothes are just this.

"I happened to see it today, so I bought two, and there was still some new cotton at home, and I found it out in a while, and made a jacket with cotton and cloth, and Zhuangzi sent cotton, and then added a new quilt to you." Yuehua smiled: "I didn't buy cotton when I saw that it was expensive on the street." ”

"Madame should also add more things to herself, and go out to meet guests with a decent scenery." The Li family reminded with a cloth that the ancestor of the main family in front of the Li family was just a six-grade petty official, and he had stopped being an official for several generations.

"Didn't I wear these before, is it possible that I have to change my skin when I change my identity!? We are officials, not those nouveau riche, so we have to wear it if we get Ayara. Yuehua smiled.

How many people watched He Heng's promotion, she didn't want to make too much noise, and she didn't give out much more money when she was promoted.

Besides, Ning Chenghe's head just came out to extend the military salary, and the military salary was moved out, what was it used for in the middle! It's all a thing! At this time, He Heng made another profligacy, where did the money come from!

Therefore, Yuehua and He Heng's daily life is still the same as before, and they can live how they want. Moreover, Yuehua and He Heng didn't hide it from each other when they got married, everyone knows what Yuehua's background is, and those who can afford her will not look down on her because she is dressed as before, and those who look down on her will still look down on her as before.
