Chapter 10 Shopping in Xuanping Town
The sugar heart that has been cultivated in the space all night is simply a hundred times more energetic. As soon as the morning dawned, I got up to help my grandmother boil water and wash vegetables, and called Tangyu to get up for dinner, and then gave lunch to the old man in the early morning to leave in the pot to warm. So he and his grandmother packed up and prepared to leave for the town. Tangyu also went to inform the nominal master that he would come back in the evening, and he came out of the door to wait for lunch while it was warm in the pot. Mama Xiao put the carriage in place, put the young lady and brother into the carriage, drove out the door and parked, went back and pulled the door and closed it, and it was not locked. In the early morning, as long as the old man appeared in the house with a strange breath at home, he could also find it in time, Mama Xiao knew his ability these days, and she also relied on the prey he hunted to live a good life during this time.
Mama sat outside the carriage and drove the carriage, Sugar Heart was afraid that she would be cold, so she handed the stove and put it in Mama's arms, Mama was also happy in her heart, Sugar thought about her, so she didn't say that she drove the carriage staggering away...... After about a quarter of an hour, I saw a small village, that is, the village where the ancestor of the Shen family used to live......
Seeing that there were more people in a hurry, Mama sped up a little speed, lest it would be more difficult to walk after a while, after all, the country roads were not very spacious. The villagers behind saw the carriage from afar, and their hearts were like mirrors. Knowing in his heart that the current Shen family could not shelter them, there were only two little ones and an old mother left, so he lost his mind. I didn't dare to get too close, for fear of being seen by the officials. Wearing a veil and raising the curtain, he saw a fellow villager who was hurrying with something on his back, and the man also glanced at Sugar Heart and turned around to talk to the person next to him, not looking at Sugar Heart and them, Sugar Heart also knew what these people were afraid of, so he put down the curtain and talked to his brother for a while.
In less than an hour, I finally arrived in Xuanping Town. A few soldiers guarding the door asked what they were doing in the city and what they were bringing with them while collecting money. I didn't have to check it, I received 2 cents and let it go.
When he saw the carriage coming, the soldier stopped Mama and asked. Mama took out 2 Wensai and gave it to Xiaobing and said that she would take the young lady and brother to see the temple fair, and Xiaobing stopped and let him go. Mama drove the carriage to the place where the carriage was parked at the site, picked up the baggage, and helped Candy Heart and Sugar Yu get out of the carriage.
Xuanping Town is the most lively place in the surrounding towns, after all, the county order of the current town also came out of here, so he served in his hometown, so he found a lot of benefits to the above, and also made the development of Xuancheng more and more lively. Nowadays, there are more and more farmers who come to the town, their incomes are higher, and their natural life is much better. Each family has at least a few dozen taels of income a year, which also makes the villagers in distant places envious and jealous. Villagers in remote areas can only get a few taels of silver a year, or they still grow food, and they have worked hard to get it, can they not be envious and jealous! Follow Mama to the Ruyi Show Workshop, which often receives embroidery work.
"Huh! Mama Xiao! Why did you come to deliver so early today? I saw a beautiful woman in her 20s wearing a jacket and combing her married hairstyle coming over to greet Mama Xiao.
"Boss Yue, why don't you take it here early today," Mama Xiao said with a smile and pulled Boss Yue's head.
"Come on, come on, come in and talk inside." Yue Nianniang pulled Mama Xiao while looking at the two pink carved jade figures beside Mama. entered the inner room and called one errand runner to bring tea and snacks. looked at the sister and brother and asked Mama Xiao
"Mama, these two little people are your young lady, young master, they look really cute" Yue Nianniang pinched the smiling face of the sugar heart as she spoke, and then looked at the sugar Yu next to her a few times and said, Sister and brother are really alike!
Mama Xiao also knew that Boss Yue was suitable for a cheerful straight person, so she introduced herself to Sugar Heart, and pulled Sugar Heart's sister and brother to call Boss Yue. Yue Nianniang unhappily pulled the candy heart to her side and said, "Call Boss Shi, and call me an uncle." Seeing that Tangxin was still hesitant, he said again: "Your uncle is also surnamed Shen, called Shen Zhien, and he came out of Pingxi Village as soon as he arrived." I was also helped by your grandfather. ’
Seeing Yue Nianniang, she said with emotion. Tangxin didn't expect that there was such a stubble, and even the grandma next to him didn't know, so he knew in his heart that Boss Yue was afraid that Mama would take advantage of it, so he didn't say this before.
Sugar felt that this boss Yue was also sincere, so he followed her heart and called "uncle"
Yue Nianniang happily responded by holding Sugar Heart in her arms and stuffing the dim sum to the two Sugar Heart sisters and brothers, and shouted, "Try it, this is the hottest fruit and pastry in town, if you like to take some back and try it." The two sisters and brothers couldn't shirk it, so they tasted it.
Mama Xiao took out the embroidery work and followed Boss Yue to the counter outside to hand over the goods and take it, more than ten good handkerchiefs embroidered with all kinds of flowers and animals with sugar heart flowers, which looked lifelike. Yue Nianniang couldn't help but asked, "Mama, your tricks are really attractive, where did you draw them, this one will definitely be able to buy a good price." ’
Mama Xiao smiled and said that it was painted by Miss Sugar Heart, she has been a smart and clever person since she was a child, and she didn't doubt it when she painted these tricks, but she only thought it out of the animals outside when she read more books. Mama herself is literate, and she can count and write, and she doesn't know much about painting.
"That's it, Mama, in the future, you can take more white silk and go back and let my sister draw some pleasing patterns. Double it for you."
"How can this be done, it's too much, Boss Yue, don't lose the capital to us." Mama Xiao said with a serious face.
Yue Nianniang knew that Mama wanted to be wrong, so she said: "This is not to repay the favor. Your show skills are from the capital, and you can turn over a lot of money from the sale of your show in the past, and besides, these silk handkerchiefs are only used by the young ladies in the town, so you don't have to refuse. I will also sell new tricks at a higher price, and I will definitely not lose money. Besides, wouldn't it stain your skillful hands if you lost it? ’
Mama Xiao thought about it, after all, you can't make concessions at a loss when doing business, so she agreed to take more than ten pieces of silk and should deliver them after the New Year. You can also get 20 taels for delivery. That's enough to save two months.
After a while, Mama Xiao took the candy heart sister and brother to quit Yue Nianniang and went out of Ruyi Xiufang. I planned to buy some New Year's goods, and it was almost time to go back after watching the temple fair in the afternoon. Sugar thought that he wanted to go shopping alone, so he gave up his old face and begged Xiao Mama to go alone for a while. Mama Xiao was really grinded to the point that she couldn't do anything, so she took Tangxin to a familiar street, so that Tangxin and her younger brother could only wander around this street. Mama Xiao turned around and went to another street to buy some white rice noodles or something.
Sugar Heart took Sugar Yu for a short walk. I really met a grocery store that collects fur meat, there are not many people in the store, but the store is quite large, and it should be a merchant who can pay up to 100 taels of silver. Just find a reason to take it out so as not to be eye-catching? Sugar Heart walked forward with Sugar Yu for a while and saw a bookstore. Tang Yu just happened to be reading more books, so he wanted to go in and have a look, Tang Yu also wanted to buy some books to see, the thousand-character text at home, the family name, I don't know that I have practiced many times and read it many times, and now I can memorize it backwards. When I entered the store, I saw a lot of miscellaneous books on the shelves, another time there were some books on scientific research, and there were also some historical documents on a few shelves, anecdotes or something. Tang Xin knew his family identity in his heart, and his younger brother could not take the imperial examination. I saw that there were still some agricultural and commercial books next to it, so I pulled my younger brother over and asked him to see which ones were suitable.
