Lin Xiaowan learned that Uncle Wu also followed the caravan to the north and south when he was young, and he was well-informed. When he was old and injured, he went home to recuperate, and bought an ox cart to transport the villagers of Shili Eight Village to and from the village and the county.

He only runs once a day, and he makes a lot of money. The two sons are filial and promising, and they also respect this old father. Life is comfortable, and he naturally smiles when he sees everyone.

Whoever mentions him in the village is envious.

Lin Xiaowan listened to Uncle Wu talk about what he saw and heard when he was young and the customs and scenery of various places, and she couldn't help but be fascinated.

The farthest she's ever been here is in the county.

This dynasty is quite open, and there are no too old-fashioned restrictions on women, but compared with modern equality between men and women, there is still a big gap.

It's like a man can go out and wander, but a woman can't.

Lin Xiaowan has no way to change this status quo, she only looks forward to making money in the future, and having the opportunity to go to more places to take a look, even if she has not lived this trip in vain.

Uncle Wu saw that the little girl was willing to listen, and he was willing to say more, along the way, Lin Xiaowan sat in the front of the car, and Uncle Wu told her interesting things about the itinerary while driving. The others also listened happily, and the car was full of laughter.

When she arrived at the entrance of the village, Lin Xiaowan jumped out of the car, said goodbye to Uncle Wu, and went home.

Liu was sitting in the yard embroidering, and when he saw his daughter coming back, he hurriedly took over the things in her hand.

Lin Xiaowan handed over the bamboo basket in her hand first, and Liu took it and looked at it, smiling happily, "Oops, I forgot." It's really not used to not raising some chickens, ducks and geese at home. ”

She happily took it, took a bowl from the kitchen and filled it with some broken buds to feed these little things, and kept muttering: "When your father comes back, let him make a chicken pen and find someone to make two chicken coops." ”

Lin Xiaowan didn't understand this, and just watched Liu's busy work.

She put the brown sugar she bought in the house, and put the meat and stick bones in the stove room, and then came out to call Liu.

Seeing that her daughter also bought cloth for her and her husband, Liu couldn't help complaining that she was spending money indiscriminately, and she was distressed about the money and happy that her daughter was thinking about herself.

Lin Xiaowan said that she also bought it for herself and Guo Chengling, and she was a little better, but she still muttered: "Your father and I are so adults, we don't need to make clothes, just buy them for you and Chengling, you don't need to buy them for us." I will keep these two pieces of cloth for you, and I will make clothes for you and Chengling. ”

Lin Xiaowan hurriedly refused, pretending to be disgusted: "The color of your and Dad's cloth is so old, we don't want it, it's ugly to die." ”

"Dead girl, what are you talking about?" Liu was so angry that he wanted to beat her.

Knowing that her daughter said this on purpose, she was also comfortable and didn't mention anything about them again.

Lin Xiaowan took out the tight hairpin and crown of the bag again. The hairpin is for Liu, the crown of the bamboo pattern is for Guo Chengling, and the other pine pattern is for Lin Zhen.

Liu Shi was speechless in shock, and it took a long time to find his voice, "What are you buying this for?" How much does it cost? ”

Lin Xiaowan smiled and comforted her mother, "It didn't cost much, the shopkeeper is the one I want to sell honey locusts, and gave me a big discount, let's pick up a big bargain." ”

Liu believed that she had a ghost, glared at her daughter who was talking nonsense, and frowned and felt sorry for the silver, "You really don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, it is enough to buy cloth to make clothes, what else do you buy these for?" Your father is a man who does farm work, what do you want such a precious thing for? There is also this hairpin, it is not cheap to look at, you quickly put it away, and take it to return it tomorrow. I don't want it, your mother and I have hairpins, the wooden hairpins are used to being comfortable, don't buy things for me and your father. ”

The hairpin doesn't look hollow to the touch, and the pattern on it is also fine, so it's definitely not cheap.

Liu knew that his daughter was filial, but the silver was not spent like this. She lowered her voice, nodded at her daughter's forehead with a look of hatred, and said, "You." Wanwan, you are now the daughter-in-law of the Guo family, and it is an exception to buy cloth for your father and me with money, and then buy hairpins and tiaras, what does Chengling think of you in her heart? ”

Lin Xiaowan was stunned, she really hadn't thought about this.

Liu knew at a glance that she hadn't thought about these things at all, and sighed, in the end, she was young and didn't understand these people's sophistication.

She wrapped it all up and put it back in.

"You can take these things and return them tomorrow, and don't buy anything for me and your father in the future. Mother knows that you and Chengling are both good children, as long as the two of you are doing well, your father and I are happier than what the flowers use. It's no wonder that my mother didn't teach you before, you can't be like this in the future, it's not easy for Chengling to make some money, you have to change this big grin in the future, be diligent and thrifty, and be thrifty and thrifty, and you can't be so loose at hand. You. ”

Lin Xiaowan was still a little confused, she only cared about herself when she bought things today, she didn't expect that not a penny of this money was earned by herself, and she reacted as soon as Liu said.

It's also strange that Guo Chengling usually pays money and pays it happily, and after a long time, she doesn't distinguish between each other.

Today she did spend a lot, medicinal herbs, cloth, brown sugar, pork, chickens and ornaments more than seven taels of silver. Guo Chengling tried her best to almost die in the wild boar that she opened, but it was only sold for twenty-five taels of silver, and she spent nearly one-third of it at once.

Compared with other peasant women who can't spend a few taels of silver all year round, she not only can't run a house, but can be said to be a loser.

I was a little deflated and a little apprehensive. I am discouraged that I am still a white eater, and I am worried that my husband will dislike me because of this.

Seeing that his daughter had opened his mind, Liu didn't say much, and went to the stove room to pick up the stick bones she brought back.

Lin Xiaowan sat in the courtyard for a while before carrying things into the house.

Guo Chengling is studying the beast chess taught to him by Lin Xiaowan, and he is very happy to play with himself. When I saw the woman come in, my eyes lit up, "It's okay?" Come and play a few rounds with me. ”

Lin Xiaowan walked over slowly, put the things on the table, and unwrapped them. Guo Chengling thought she was going to say something, but she didn't play chess, staring at her movements.

The more he stared at her, the more Lin Xiaowan's heart went up and down.

It was easy to open the package, revealing the contents inside, a silver hairpin, two crowns, and a pair of earrings.

Guo Chengling looked at her and raised her eyebrows, not knowing why.

Lin Xiaowan looked at him for a long time, closed her eyes as if she was ruthless, and said with a stiff neck:

"I went to the county today, bought a lot of things for my father, my mother and the two of us, and spent a lot of money. The silver hairpin is intended for my mother, you and your father have a tiara, the earrings are bought for myself, and I also bought a piece of cloth for one of you to make clothes. ”

Guo Chengling looked at her painting "I have all the flowers, what can you do with me" looked a little funny, and teased her:

"Anything else?"

Lin Xiaowan paused for a moment, thinking to herself, he was really angry, thinking that she would not be able to take care of the house.

Sullenly continued:

"Yes. I also bought a pound of meat and a few stick bones. Two catties of brown sugar, and I bought some medicinal herbs, but they were gone. ”

After thinking about it, she added,

"I also ate a bowl of wontons and bought two steamed buns. It cost more than seven taels of silver. ”

Guo Chengling was about to laugh out loud, but Lin Xiaowan closed her eyes and couldn't see the corners of the man's mouth twitching because of the laughter.

Guo Chengling was silent for a long time, Lin Xiaowan was even more uneasy, she couldn't stand this anxious waiting before the execution, she couldn't help but open her eyes to find him, and hurriedly opened her mouth to defend herself: "Are you angry?" I don't do this every day, I just didn't pay attention today, and I accidentally spent so much. And my mother didn't ask for the hairpin, she asked me to take it back tomorrow. ”

Speaking of this, she was a little sad, and begged in a low voice: "I don't want to return, but my mother said that you earned the money, so let me not spend it indiscriminately." Can I owe it first, and I'll make it up to you when the honey locust sells for money in two days. ”

Guo Chengling thought something was wrong, but it turned out to be for this. guessed that it might be Liu Shi who said her, and for a while I wanted to laugh and was a little annoyed.

He reached out and grabbed the woman's wrist and pulled it lightly. Lin Xiaowan's eyes widened in panic, and the man obediently pulled the person to him, and a sigh escaped from his throat.

"Remember what I said earlier?"
