Chapter 10: The Nurse's Request
As a modern person, no matter how much you stay at home, you have to go out to let off steam, for example, go downstairs to get a courier takeaway, make a regular trip to the supermarket, go to the shopping mall for a walk, after all, online shopping, lack of experience in physical stores, watching movies on computers and mobile phones, and lacking the audio-visual effect of the cinema......
In fact, even if many people don't buy things, they want to walk around, take a look at the strange, and see the excitement.
Changed to the inner house of the high-walled deep courtyard, no matter how heavy the girl is, she also has to string a door, from the head to what festival it is, whose birthday, or which day the spring is warm, the flowers are blooming delicately, and the kite can also be released by the way......
"Look, Miss! The Caiyan in the east! Flying so high, it's like dancing, it's so beautiful! ”
"The mandarin duck kite is also beautiful, but ...... It's too explicit, it's all Miss Boudoir......"
Han'er put down the tray and glanced at the bell: "You also know explicit?" The bell has been rippling in spring recently? ”
"Phew! What are you talking nonsense? See if I don't tear your mouth! The bell pouted, gesturing to tear Han'er's mouth.
The two of them quarreled in the yard, and the other two girls laughed along.
Liu Wei put down the scroll in her hand, simply lay down, looking at the blue sky, and a kite broke into her sight.
Only when that string is broken will the kite be free.
But what will happen to the kite with a broken string and the kite fluttering in the wind?
I can't help but sigh - I don't know if it's under the influence of the original owner, and I'm always a little sentimental from time to time.
Throw out your sorrows.
I was a little excited.
In half a month, she will leave Liufu.
In the last two months, she has done a lot of preparation.
First of all, tell Lin truthfully that she has some ...... about words Vague impressions.
Without saying a word, Lin immediately found a gentleman who had been teaching her homework and was familiar with words.
At the same time, a more in-depth understanding of the situation in Datang, especially the situation in Chang'an, human geography is involved, of course, including a certain economic knowledge, for example, how much is a bun, how much is a horse.
For example, a chestnut, a sturdy male slave, the price is 50 pieces.
Secondly, constantly adapt to the "linguistic" environment.
Dongzhou is in the southeast of the Tang Dynasty, and the people here do not use the same language, just a few girls in her yard can speak a total of four dialects, which is not an exaggeration, and there are certain differences in language in the next village.
The same is true elsewhere.
But fortunately, in a large family like Liufu, the slaves in the family are the same as the masters, and all of them speak the official dialect - Mandarin.
So when she wakes up, she can adapt to the environment as quickly as possible.
To be honest, this kind of official dialect is indeed a little different from modern Mandarin, but she is studying hard.
The center of the entire Tang Dynasty, Chang'an, and the more economically developed the place, the more popular the official dialect will be.
The second is to prepare some necessities.
She really couldn't stand using wicker as a toothbrush, and after many studies (squeezing), she finally improved it into a toothbrush with a coarse brush, don't spray, and can't find a craftsman, let alone find raw materials, so she can only keep asking for brushes.
In addition to the toothbrush, there is also a menstrual belt, which does not need to be explained.
In addition, at her request, let Han'er sew a backpack, and her embroidery is definitely the worst one in the entire Liufu.
The material of the backpack is ordinary linen, which is inconspicuous at first glance, and the big deal is strange, there is no zipper, no hidden buckle, a drawstring is used, and there is a curtain like something on the outermost part, which is wrapped in two layers, and the outside is burlap, and the inside is the kind of waterproof fabric found in the shipyard.
There is a change of clothes in the bag, a dagger, a seasoning bottle, directly mixed with salt peppers, etc., and a bottle with lard, by the way, you have to bring a alabaster, homemade air-dried beef has a few days, remember to bring some dry food when the time comes.
There seems to be something else......
What else is there not to bring?
Cover your mouth and snicker, how can you forget - entangled.
There are some valuable things in the original owner's box, but most of them are jewelry, in fact, earrings, necklaces, beads, hairpins and the like, are not practical at all, a woman who wears gold and silver and travels alone, how big the goal is, there is no need to explain, and this thing is still heavy.
Going to a pawnshop for money?
Before that, you have to walk a mountain road for a while, survive the bandits, and then go to a conscience pawnshop for money.
Therefore, the most practical thing is not a string of copper coins, not a gold and silver ingot, but a silver ticket.
But—
When did the Silver Ticket appear?
Answer: The early years of the Northern Song Dynasty.
As soon as she thought of this, she wanted to cry, and after a big circle, she still had to have a whole bag of copper coins + gold and silver ingots.
Don't be too greedy, just be prepared.
You can't rely on this bit of gold and silver from your mother's house for the rest of your life to survive.
The kite disappeared at some point, and was replaced by a bell's round eyes: "Miss, Aunt Wen is here, do you want to send her back?" ”
Nurse?
Since she was assassinated last night, I haven't seen Aunt Wen, let alone heard from her.
She rolled over and sat up.
"It's a nurse after all, so you have to take care of a little bit of affection, let her in."
Aunt Wen said the first thing when she came in: "Miss is good-natured, she can really calm down." ”
She didn't speak.
The bell immediately said, "What does Aunt Wen mean by this?" ”
Aunt Wen pointed to the sky and laughed: "The sky is so good, the eldest lady doesn't go out to take a look, enjoy the flowers, feed the fish, and fly a kite...... Bell girl, what do you think I'm talking about? ”
"Miss has her own opinions, so I need you to talk too much?"
The bell tone was not good, and Aunt Wen still had a smile on her face: "A person like Miss Bell with a clever mind and a clever mouth, when she arrives at the boundary of Chang'an, she is not allowed to fly on the branches to be a phoenix?" ”
Immediately, Han'er's face changed: "Bell, go and take a look at the stove." ”
"Why don't you look?"
The bell yelled angrily, and immediately said to Aunt Wen: "You and I are both slaves, but I am Miss's slave, you are a nurse, you dare to overtake Miss's slave!" I'm going to ask you, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd? Is it to deceive the Lord? ”
"Ouch, ouch, the bell girl is so angry, she beat me up and scolded me, no matter what you say, today, I can't be angry with you. Miss has such a powerful girl by her side, who can shelter from the wind and rain, and I am relieved. ”
Aunt Wen turned to Liu Wei and beckoned to the girl who didn't dare to come by the courtyard gate: "Fangcao, come over quickly." ”
"Fangcao is a little bold, but she is the most loyal, meticulous, flexible, and knows how to read words and feelings."
Only then did Liu Wei speak: "What do you mean?" ”
Aunt Wen asked Fangcao to kneel in front of her.
Fangcao was separated from her father and mother since she was a child, and was abducted and sold to Dongzhou, and she vaguely remembered that her family was in Chang'an. If the young lady has a little pity, she will take her all the way, and if she can't find her father and mother, she can also see the world and get rid of the cowardly problem. ”
"Auntie is going to lose the herbs?"
Aunt Wen asked Fangcao to kowtow, but she hugged Aunt Wen's leg and cried.
Aunt Wen was held by her: "We are all minions of Liufu, who lost whom?" Foolish girl. ”
Bell looked at her with a huff, and Han'er and the other girls were waiting for her response.
