The next morning, Lu got up early in the morning to pack up his things, and Yi Yu was woken up by her movements, so he also sat up from the bed.

Lu Shi first moved to Lu Zhi's end, lifted the futon against the corner of the wall, picked out a three-fist-sized movable wooden board for a while, reached out and pulled out a cloth bag, and took out a bunch of money from it, and counted some out of it. Yi Yu had seen her let go of the money once before, and she felt that she was quite good at hiding things, and the three brothers and sisters knew where their family's money was, and the Lu family never shied away from the three of them.

This year, the family's farmland has earned more than three times, which can be regarded as a bumper harvest. The day before yesterday, the Lu family also took two or three copper coins for them, and the day Yu got the copper coins, he studied them very much. Tang Wude began to mint Kaiyuan Tongbao in the fourth year, but because the state did not advocate the vigorous issuance of copper coins, remote areas used more local private copper coins, which was also tacitly approved by the imperial court.

What Lu Shi gave her was only a round square-hole copper coin minted by a local private coin, similar in size to a modern one-yuan coin, only a little more than half as thick, and much lighter in weight. And now not only copper coins can be used for trading, the phenomenon of bartering is also very large, most of them are exchanged for goods such as silk silk, and a zhang of silk silk can be worth about more than 100 yuan.

Later, the two brothers also got up, Lu Jun got dressed and ran out to feed the cowshed, and Lu Zhi went to pack up the cart and prepare to wait for the next set of oxcarts. Nowadays, there is no means of transportation, and farmers generally use their farming animals as laborers to pull carts to save some footsteps. The market is open near the town, although it is every day, but every first day and fifteenth day of the new year, there will be two larger markets, today is the fifteenth, optimistic about catching up with the big market, no wonder Lu Jun was so excited yesterday.

Yi Yu fished out the quilt by herself, and put on the clothes that Lu had prepared for her in advance last night. On the third day of the crossing, she asked herself to dress, and Lu Shi saw that she was nimble and allowed her to support herself, and when she was dressed, he tied her hair up.

To say that the costumes of the Tang Dynasty are still very distinctive, but the children of the peasant family do not do too many rules for the convenience of playing and working, otherwise the relics should put skirts on the outside, and the two brothers should also wear deep clothes instead of dressing separately from the top and bottom.

When she was dressed, Lu Shi had also changed into an earthy yellow coarse cloth short shirt, with a gray long skirt that reached the bare feet, although it looked no more magnificent than the Tang Dynasty people that Yiyu saw in the TV series, but it was good at the delicacy of its cut and stitches and the simplicity of its appearance.

The clothes of the three brothers and sisters were all cut by Lu Shi after buying arrowroot cloth outside, cloth was relatively expensive in this era, and the cloth worn by civilians was monotonous in color and mostly coarse cloth, and it was enough to have a single set of clothes in a quarter. It is said that in the early Tang Dynasty, civilians could only wear yellow and white clothes, but now it seems that it is true, she has seen the wardrobe at home, except for gray, yellow and white are the majority.

Lu's actual age is also thirty-four, and he doesn't look very old, and his big eyes usually don't smile but also have a bit of majesty, unlike the careful appearance of ordinary peasant women. She has whiter skin, although she has been exposed to the sun in recent days, but there is only a trace of healthy red, and she must have been a beauty when she was young.

There is no bronze mirror at home, and the price of a mirror is enough for them to eat white noodles for half a month. Therefore, Yiyu has only seen his appearance from the water shadow until now, and he can be regarded as cute, but he is still young with a fat infatuation.

When the chickens in the village crowed three times, the family finished counting, and Lu Zhimu sent them out of the village with the ox cart. The cattle in the family are very strong, Lu Jun sits in front and trots it, and there is also the speed of a general bicycle, the road is very bumpy, at this time there is probably no popularization of official roads, the roads in the countryside are generally potholes, although it is sitting on Lu's knees, but Yu Yu is still a little dizzy from being shaken, fortunately, her current body is not motion sickness.

After about half an hour, the road gradually flattened, listening to Lu's words, this is coming, and after a while, there were gradually more people rushing and walking around, and then looking at the crowd of people not far in front of him, Yu Yu knew that this had arrived.

This is a place where there is a special place to help take care of the car, and the person who watches the car is a well-known family in the nearby town, and it only costs two pennies to keep it until noon. Lu set up the ox cart, stepped on the package he brought, pulled a child in one hand, and walked to the market.

It wasn't until they squeezed into the crowd that Yu Yu finally knew what the bazaar was like. It is equivalent to the modern morning market, although the huge open space is full of stalls, but they are neatly arranged, and some even set up simple grass huts.

The variety of goods is also rich, there are a lot of food, clothing and entertainment, although it is not comparable to the supermarket that can find everything in the 21st century, in the eyes of people in this era, such a scale of the market is also very rare, just look at Lu Jun with two shining eyes can know how attractive it is to people now, especially children.

The sound of selling on both sides was endless, and the thick Shu sound made Yu Yu feel very interesting, although there were many gadgets along the way, Lu Jun did not shout to buy them once, and she, as an adult who was already twenty years old inside, naturally did not make a fuss and ask for things, and the two followed Lu Shi to the stall in the market that had built a shed.

The stall owner was a man in his twenties, sitting on a straw mat five or six feet long, with some silk and cotton threads beside him, and he seemed to be in the business of women's red materials.

When he saw Lu Shi coming, he immediately straightened up with a smile, and asked eagerly, "Erniang is here, but there is work to sell?" ”

"Well, a few squares and two pouches." As he spoke, Lu Shi let go of the hands that were pulling the child, took the bag on his back, fumbled for a ball of things wrapped in cloth, and handed it to the other party.

The man hurriedly took it and carefully opened it and went out to put it on the mat next to him, which were four silk handkerchiefs embroidered with flowers and birds, and two small bags like delicate purses.

He carefully looked at the stitches and patterns, and said to Lu Shi with a smile, "One hundred wen." ”

Seeing Lu Shi shaking his head, the man said, "One hundred and fifty wen." ”

Lu Shi squatted down and stretched out his hand to collect those few objects, but the young man hurriedly stretched out his hand to block it, his face changed and he smiled bitterly, "Okay, Erniang, can you make three hundred Wen?" ”

Yi Yu was shocked in his heart, these few small pieces can be sold for three hundred yuan? It is equivalent to a year's harvest of three acres of land, and looking at the few things placed on the stall, it is obvious that the material is different from the one used by her mother when she taught her before, it is likely to be real silk, and she heard Lu's laughter in her ears when she thought of this.

"My base material is high-quality silk, and the color thread is also one or two hundred dollars of silk, Erniang's handiwork is naturally needless to say. You will settle accounts, you don't even give me the capital for these six things, but you can only give you easy to bully me, right? ”

After listening to it, Yiyu secretly thought that the materials were really different, but I don't know where my mother bought these materials, and it was really enough to sacrifice the capital. In her opinion, these embroideries can be sold to nobles in the big city, and they can earn at least five times more.

The young stall owner scratched his head and smiled bitterly, "Erniang, don't blame me for being entangled, you used to take ordinary materials from me to go back to work, but this time you took out these things, but I don't know where your silk thread came from, if you tell me, I will count you six hundred yuan?" ”

Lu Shi thought for a while and nodded: "I'm not afraid, you know, this is my previous dowry." But it has never been used, and recently the money has been tight, so I cut it to do something else. ”

Although the young stall owner's face was suspicious after hearing this, he still nodded and replied: "I see, in this way, if you still have such goods in the future, and it is easy to be with me?" ”

Seeing that Lu Shi bowed his head slightly, he reached out and took out the money jar from the side, pulled out a long string of money, carefully counted six paragraphs, and pushed it to Lu Shi.

Lu Shi carefully tapped it again before putting the money string into his bag, and Yi Yu looked at it from the sidelines and felt that the long bone money was too heavy, and secretly sighed that the current transaction was really very inconvenient.

After making so much money, Lu Shi was obviously in a happy mood, pulled the two children out of the stall and turned away, and said: "My mother sold some of the bottom of the box, but this year I have more spare money, you two can tell your mother what you want to eat, and then bring it back to your eldest brother." ”

Yi Yu heard her talk about the dowry just now, and now when she heard her mention the bottom of the box, she couldn't help but think of the events of the past few days. She saw it when Lu Shi made these things, and it was indeed a piece of clothing that she had never seen before, the material was excellent, and those colored silk threads were also shown to her when she was teaching her color matching, and they were packed in a delicate purse and pressed by Lu Shi in the tight inside of the cabinet at home.

If this is the dowry of the Lu family, then her family background must be not shallow, but she was driven away by her in-laws after losing her husband, but she did not return to her parents' house but lived in the countryside.

Although she was curious, she couldn't help but be infected with joy when she saw that Lu Shi was happy, and she looked at Lu Jun on the other side, and saw that he was also looking back and forth at the gadgets sold on both sides with a happy face, so she put down the doubts in her heart and concentrated on shopping in this lively market.

Lu bought tung oil and sundries for lighting lamps, bought some candy and other food for Yiyu, and finally went to the young vendor who collected embroidery and sold some needlework and cloth. Lu Jun squirmed and asked for a small wooden bow, but the price was not cheap, and he needed one hundred and fifty yuan, and finally bought it.

There are also some knick-knacks worn by girls, and the hair rope is bought for a penny, but the cheapest hairpins and the like cost more than a dozen yuan, and they are still carved from wood. Lu asked his daughter and saw that she really didn't plan to give up.

In fact, the clothing of women in the Tang Dynasty is still very rare, as a girl, she naturally wants to dress up beautifully, but the premise is that the family has spare money and her hair is long enough. She is also only three years old now, and her hair length is at most two pigtails on both sides, and a bun is not enough.

can only wait for the money to have in the future, and then go to the stinky beauty when the hair grows, so she is not in a hurry, she knows in her heart that the Tang Dynasty is a country where white fat is beautiful, and she doesn't want to be fat, so it's okay to be a little white girl with peace of mind. Lu Yiyu's children, who probably inherited Lu's fair-skinnedness, although the meals are not stained with oil and water, they are also white and white.

Lu Shi also brought Lu Zhi two books, one of which was indeed a miscellaneous book, and there were some illustrations on it, and she still spent 100 yuan on the two books after grinding them for a long time.

This morning, the three of them bought a lot of things, and there was not much left of the six hundred dollars they earned from selling embroidery before, and Yu Yu looked a little distressed, but Lu Shi smiled and looked indifferent, and it was almost noon before they carried the things they bought to pick up the ox cart and go home.
