Chapter 27: Heijo

She had just finished freshening up when she heard a soft cry from the gate: "Month, month?"

"Hey, it's coming!" replied in the same soft voice.

After calling the gate, Hanae asked the moon, "Can I go?"

"You wait for me for a while, I'll go back to my room and get something. ”

"Good. ”

At the beginning of the month, she went back to the room and brought the ten taels of silver that Ye Shi Sai gave her when she got married. She hasn't been to the county seat yet, and she doesn't know how the price of goods here is calculated, so she has been looking forward to going to the county seat to have a look.

Uncle Zhang is in his early fifties, pulling an ox cart every day to go to the county to pull goods for people to make a living, he is a good man, if someone wants to go to the county seat in the morning, he will bring people over for free, and when he comes back at night, he will bring people back again when he meets the people in the village, and never charges a penny.

In addition to Huazhi and Yueyue, there are also two aunts in the village, four people plus Uncle Zhang, who is driving the car, who just filled the car.

The road leading to the county seat is a thoroughfare, which has been repaired by the government and is relatively stable. This avenue can lead to all directions, so there are often merchants from other places passing through here, it is regarded as a fortress passage, there are many people coming and going, there are those who are in a hurry will stop in the county, and there are also many merchants from other countries doing business here, so it is a relatively prosperous county.

When I heard Huazhi's introduction at the beginning of the month, a thought suddenly rose in my heart, but I quickly dispelled the thought again.

After a while, an aunt overheard the conversation between the two and asked Yueyue: "Haven't you been to the county seat before?"

At the beginning of the month, he replied: "I haven't been." ”

The aunt sighed twice, and said in her heart: "I heard that your aunt and uncle are not good to you and your mother, but now it seems to be true, who doesn't go to the county seat several times a year? Even if the family has no money and the farmers will go to the county seat to visit the county, they must arrange a lot of work for you every day, right?"

At the beginning of the month, she didn't answer, but she just "sighed" deeply, but her helpless sigh was already the best answer. But she didn't lie, in the memory of the original owner, she and the Ye family did work from morning to night, and they didn't go to the county seat once.

The ox cart drove for more than an hour to reach the county seat, and at the beginning of the month, I felt that my ass was hurting.

In ancient times, an hour was two hours, but fortunately there was an ox cart, and if you walked on your feet, you would have to walk for more than four hours!

It's the middle of the day, and everyone gets off the ox cart at the entrance of the county seat, because Uncle Zhang has to wait for business here.

At the beginning of the month, I glanced at the plaque hanging high above, and there were two big characters written on it: Pingcheng.

After entering Pingcheng, the beginning of the month was suddenly surprised.

Said to be the county seat, at the beginning of the month in the mind was a small town in the mind, but what I saw in front of me was a street about four or five meters wide, there were many vendors on both sides of the street, selling snacks and gadgets and so on, and then inside was the shop, the first one was a restaurant, it looked very big, almost all of them were shops, and there were really a lot of people, and there were indeed a lot of businessmen and passers-by from other places.

The sound of selling, talking and laughing, and the sound of talking compose the breath of life.

Where's this town? It's exactly the same size as a modern small city.

After entering the county seat, the two aunts separated from the two at the beginning of the month, and Huazhi wanted to go shopping, so the beginning of the month followed her.
