"Dani, have you taken everything? It's been raining for the past few days. The county seat is not better than ours, there are more people there, but you have to follow your father and don't get separated. Yang Yuemei stood at the door and asked Chunyu, although it was said that it was not far away to go to the county seat, but it was the first time for her family to go to the county seat, and she was always a little uneasy.

"Mother, haven't you checked it several times and held it all. Besides, I'm not a kid anymore and I'll get lost, even if I accidentally get separated from my father, I can still find my way back! Chunyu said helplessly.

"Yes, my daughter has grown up." Yang Yuemei said with a smile.

"Eldest sister, next time you have to take me, the farthest place I've ever been to is the town." Chun Tao said unhappily because she couldn't go.

"Okay, I'll take you with me when the eldest sister goes next time." Chunyu comforted her and said.

"Eldest sister, I'll go too." The little bun on the side was busy talking, and Chunyan also looked at her with expectant eyes.

"Okay, I'll bring you all next time." Chunyu said with a smile.

"Okay, if you don't leave, the sky will be bright, and if you don't leave, it will be delayed." Li Dajun scratched his head and said.

"Then you guys should hurry up." Yang Yuemei also felt that it had been delayed for a lot of time, so she said.

"Okay, let's go." Chunyu got on the cart pulled by Uncle Erzhu's ox that her father borrowed, and waved goodbye to her mother and younger siblings.

"By the way, you can't let your father go to the wine shop in Xicheng to drink, you have to drink too much every time you go. Forget it before, this time I have to take you in an ox cart, but I can't let him drink anymore. When the spring rain and they all set off, Yang Chunmei explained again.

"Hey, hey." Li Dajun smiled innocently, he had a guy he knew before who opened a tavern in the city, and every time he went to the city, he had to drink some wine.

“…… Got it. Chunyu said, thinking that for safety, drunk driving is really prohibited everywhere.

Although the ox cart was slower, it was faster than walking, and besides, it took so many things.

It took more than 30 miles to spend two hours, that is, nearly three hours.

When they arrived at the county seat, after the carriage was routinely inspected by the guards at the city gate, Li Dajun drove the ox cart into the city. Chunyu didn't expect that there were guards for routine patrols in this small county town, and immediately looked forward to this place a lot.

After they entered the city, Li Dajun tied the cattle to the cowshed at the gate of the city, and there were also horse sheds, but carriages were not often seen here. Those who have carriages are rich people in the city, and they don't need to come here. Cattle are not allowed to walk on the streets in this city, and during the Ming Dynasty, agriculture was heavy, so cattle that cultivated the land were very important. Although there is no rule that ox carts cannot be used, cattle are not allowed to wander around the streets of the county, and everyone who comes to the county town from outside is here to do business, and it is not convenient to lead the oxen.

After placing the cattle of Uncle Erzhu's house, he paid a penny to the person who watched the shed. Her father pushed the cart that slowed things down, and Chunyu followed, and finally arrived in the county seat after passing another city gate. After arriving there, Chunyu saw the lively scene in front of him, and his heart was very happy. It's really bustling here, the streets are bustling, the shops and houses on both sides are lined up, and there are many kinds of businesses, large and small......

Chunyu walked and watched, looking at noodle soup shops, cloth shops, grocery stalls, restaurants, as well as selling jade, jewelry and rouge, everything.

"Dad, where are we going first?" Only then did Chunyu remember that the purpose of their coming here was to sell the pickled preserved fruits and mulberry fruit wine.

"Let's go to Dongzi's house first, although I have been to the county many times, I still don't know it well." Li Dajun said embarrassedly. Dongzi is his acquaintance, and now he runs a tavern on West Street, and business is not bad. In the past, when the two of them were buddies together, Li Dajun listened to Dongzi and understood a lot.

"Okay, let's give him some preserved fruit, and let him take us to a shop where we can receive the goods." Chunyu said. It's better to have someone familiar with this place to lead the way, than for her and her father to wander around.

"Okay, okay." Li Dajun was very happy that his daughter understood etiquette.

Dongzi's full name is Ma Dong, so his tavern tutor Ma Dong is a wine shop. Chunyu didn't laugh at him, the name of the store was simple. Most of the shop names here are named after their last names, which is funny.

After meeting Ma Dong, Chunyu found that he was a shrewd man who seemed to be a bit of a businessman. But as soon as he opened his mouth, he knew that he was straightforward, otherwise he would have chatted with the honest Li Dajun. And his daughter-in-law is a shy lady who doesn't talk much. There was a girl and a boy in his family, and when Chunyu gave them the preserved fruit, the children didn't dare to take it, and they waited until their father spoke.

Although Ma Dong is in Dongcheng, he is very familiar with everyone in this county, and it turns out that he has done a dental business before, specializing in buying houses and shops for people. After hearing that he still had this experience, Chunyu was happy, and it would be right to come to the county seat to open a store to find him in the future.

Sure enough, after Li Dajun said the purpose of their visit, Ma Dong immediately named several dim sum shops and restaurants with better prices. And he had just tasted the preserved fruit and fruit wine pickled in the spring rain, which was full of praise, and the mulberry fruit wine was even more delicious wine that he had never experienced.

Ma Dong said that although the things were good, he was afraid that the owners of those shops would lower the price, so he took Chunyu and they ran a few more to ask about the market. It turns out that this ordinary preserved fruit also costs more than ten yuan a catty, and the better ones cost twenty yuan a catty, which is almost enough to withstand a pound of pork. Although those preserved fruits are a little dry, a catty

There are a lot of them, but usually people buy them in pairs and taels, and they don't spend a few pennies.

In addition to the preserved fruit, Chunyu also wanted to sell several methods of dim sum that she would make, but she was not going to open a dim sum shop, and the materials used to make dim sum were expensive, and she was also powerless. It's better to sell it directly to make a sum of money so that you can save it and use it to open a store when the time comes. As for the money from the sale of preserved fruits and fruit wine, Chunyu thought that when the wheat harvest season was over, she would think about her family's house.

I'm really afraid of the spring rain, although it has been repaired and won't leak rain, but it looks like a dilapidated house, and it is a yard surrounded by a low fence that everyone can enter. There is also a bath that can only be done on the stove, and after washing, the ground is covered with water and the land is muddy. What made her collapse the most was going to the toilet, a space enclosed by maize poles, and a big pit was dug in the ground with two wooden planks, and people were really afraid of falling when they stepped on it.

Chunyu was thinking about things here, Ma Dong had already explained the things in the store to his daughter-in-law, so he took Chunyu and them out.

They first came to a medium-looking dim sum shop in Xicheng, where Chunyu asked Ma Dong and his father to set up a cart and wait outside, and she walked in.
