Qin Liusu got up early, coiled his hair up against the basin, took out a forehead handkerchief from the floral package, tied his hair up, picked a wooden hairpin and inserted it diagonally into his sideburns, and straightened his clothes, then pushed open the door and walked out.

It was still early, the moon was still visible, the sky was slightly blue, Uncle Sun went to the field early, and Aunt Sun hadn't gotten up yet.

Qin Liusu was already familiar with the environment here, picked up the basin and went to the humble kitchen, scooped up the rice, mixed the noodles, and made a few steamed buns, and then got out of the pot.

When Aunt Sun got up, she found Qin Liusu sitting on the ground burning the fire, and there were bursts of mist rising from the lid of the pot, thinking that it was also a good meal.

"Girl, why did you get up so early? Your body hasn't recovered yet! You have to get some rest. ”

Qin Liusu stood up and lifted the lid of the pot, the porridge was churning in the pot, and Qin Liusu inserted the steamed bun with chopsticks, which was also good.

"Auntie, it's okay, since I'm a member of the family, I naturally have to do something, and I can eat when my uncle comes back."

As soon as the words fell, Uncle Sun came back with a wooden barrel, Uncle Sun sniffed the rice and laughed, "Why do you think today's rice is extraordinarily fragrant?" ”

Aunt Sun made a gesture to make a move, "What's the matter?" You old man is disgusted with my craft? ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, where, it's just, you didn't do it today?"

Aunt Sun pointed at Qin Liusu, "The girl feels sorry for me, so she got up early, not only made breakfast, but even washed her clothes." ”

Qin Liusu stood aside and brought out the porridge in the pot and brought it to the table, and the second elder of the Sun family made it, enjoying Qin Liusu's craftsmanship.

After the three of them finished breakfast, Qin Liusu rushed to wash the dishes again, Niu Da just came, but now Qin Liusu was called outside the fence, Qin Liusu came out of the shed in response, and said hello to Aunt Sun who was playing with slices, and then got on the ox cart and went to the county seat.

The two are obviously familiar with each other, and along the way, they naturally talk more, and they tease a few words from time to time, which is also very comfortable.

Still like yesterday, the two of them were separated at the gate of the city tower, Niu Da was still a little uneasy, and repeatedly told Qin Liusu to pay attention to safety, Qin Liusu was full of words, with yesterday's wandering, plus his memory is good, so he didn't get lost, he could tell the difference anywhere, if not, he naturally relied on a mouth to ask for directions.

Qin Liusu is different from yesterday, and today naturally comes with eyes.

Qin Liusu came to Baili Street, here is a large wholesale market, there are all kinds of small parts, all major roads are full of small vendors selling goods, a dazzling array of goods, Qin Liusu is dazzled.

"This sister-in-law, let's take a look at today's most popular rouge!"

The vendor was very enthusiastic, and Qin Liusu was a little used to it.

Qin Liusu waved his hand, and the vendor was a little disappointed, and turned around to solicit other guests.

Not to mention that this market made Qin Liusu linger, but it was the Wang Yuanwai family in the east of this county who had a big business, and he almost lost his way, thanks to the guidance of the little guy next to him.

"This is the silver tael you get today, give." Niu Da took the half-run hanging money in the hands of the little guy and thanked him a thousand times.

"Thank you, big brother, thank you."

"It's nothing, you can unload this firewood with me."

Niu Da rolled up his sleeves without hesitation and began to work, there were many people with great strength, and in a short time, a cart of firewood was unloaded.

The little guy went to the front hall, saying that he was asked to wait, and the cow squatted at the back door, watching the cow graze, and was a little anxious, and after a long while, he came out.

"My lord said, today's batch of firewood is good, he said that in the future, our family's firewood will be sent to you, give, this is the deposit for the next time, and our lord has an additional bounty."

Niu Da was a little scared.

"That's not good, is it?"

The little guy stuffed Niu Da hard, "What's so embarrassing about this?" Our lord is happy, a few days ago he married a beautiful sixth lady, and his heart is alive, if you do it well, you will naturally not treat you badly. ”

The cow nature is very grateful, made a gesture, and said goodbye.

Niu Da led the ox cart and turned around and came to the market, but he couldn't find Qin Liusu.

Niu Da knew that he couldn't lead the ox cart to find someone, so he stopped at an acquaintance's house and asked him to take care of it.

Niu Da went to look for Qin Liusu with the money he got today, and came to Baili Street, looking at the crowds coming and going, Niu Da was in trouble, and he didn't know where Qin Liusu had gone.

Although he couldn't help but have some drumming in his heart, Niu Da still looked for Qin Liusu in the end, and heard the noise inside a cloth shop passing by, Niu Da said badly and hurriedly walked in.

Sure enough, I saw Qin Liusu holding coarse cloth and silk in both hands, arguing with others.

"This old man also doesn't believe it, the provincial call has deceived people!"

Qin Liusu was a little indignant, and threw the silk on the table, and the shopkeeper was also noisy.

"What's going on? Make a scene! I'm not afraid of being seen as a joke! ”

Although the owner of the shop looked amiable on the surface, he was a little reluctant to ask the ins and outs.

"This sister-in-law doesn't want to talk about this gossip again, how can we run a store and do business?"

Of course, Qin Liusu was unwilling, "How am I gossiping, you look at this satin, your clerk said that it was Wu Ling, as far as I know, because of the use of warp, tightly woven, thick and light, "West Lake Tour Zhiyu" said, rubbing with hands in the dark, there will be fire after a long time, commonly known as "oil satin", but unfortunately, your satin, no matter how you rub, there is no reaction, how dare you talk nonsense? I don't think it's shiny, it's not smooth to the touch, how dare you claim to be made of silk, I see, it's not synthetic with artificial silk? ”

After saying something, it was reasonable and well-founded, but it made the boss speechless.

"The ancients said, do not do to others what you do not want, if it were you, would you be willing to pay twice the price to buy silk that is not worth anything at all? Stores, don't lose trust. ”

The shopkeeper was trembling, his face was red, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

"What this sister-in-law said is wonderful."

The man took the lead in clapping his hands, and Niu Da noticed that there was a well-dressed person next to him, and he was accompanied by a servant, who was also a big family.

"Alas, this sister-in-law is so familiar, haven't you seen it somewhere?"

The little guy on the side felt puzzled when he saw Qin Liusu at first sight, and then he remembered.

"But the sister-in-law who stood in the way yesterday?"

Qin Liusu's flush on his face had not faded because of the quarrel, and when he saw the little guy, he said, "Exactly, exactly!" ”

The man who was standing quietly on the side said: "Come to think of it, I also have a relationship with this sister-in-law, I don't know the honorable name?" ”

"Where do you still respect the surname, it's just that the surname is Qin, and everyone else calls me Aunt Qin."

Qin Liusu is also peaceful, he didn't say his name, and if he thinks about it, it will not have a good impact outside.

"Oh, I see, my surname is Ling, I am the eldest in the family, and outsiders call me Boss Ling."

The two said hello, and Boss Ling stepped forward with the little servant and walked out, while Niu Da and Qin Liusu remained inside.

was almost out of the store, and Niu Da didn't dare to underestimate the woman beside him.

"Aunt Qin knows a lot!"

Niu Da sighed with emotion.

"Where you know more, it's just that if you see more, you will understand a little."

Seeing that Qin Liusu was reluctant to mention the past, Niu Da didn't care much and mentioned the plan in Qin Liusu's hands.

"Today is not in vain for the old man's beginning, this store gave me two feet of coarse cloth, the old man gave me ten copper plates, I look at the sky is not early, I think it should be noon, why not, let's go get some food, fill our stomachs?"

Niu Da nodded, saying this, his stomach was indeed hungry.

The two found a secluded stall, the weather was hot, and there were not many people coming, so the two found a shady place, woke up the napping shopkeeper, and asked for two bowls of noodles.

After eating, it was almost over, Qin Liusu took out ten copper plates and put them on the table, Niu Da saw this, and was a little unhappy.

"Is Aunt Qin looking down on me?"

Qin Liusu was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that Niu Da had misunderstood.

"Why do you think of me like this, I didn't get ten copper plates for nothing today, and you helped me so much, naturally you want me to come to treat you, if there is a next time, let Brother Niu come."

Niu Da nodded, and the two went to sign the ox cart and walked around.

"It's not a way to go on like this, what does Aunt Qin have to buy?"

Qin Liusu knew that Niu Da had a lot of work to do, and she also said that she would let him go back first, but Niu Da did not agree, and he was unwilling to live or die.

"When I was cooking today, I found that there was no food at home, so you can go with me and buy some food!"

"It's okay, I have a familiar shop, it sells very cheap, the price is fair, I'll take you there."

When I came to the rice mill, the store saw Niu Da and was happy.

"Why did Brother Niu come? But didn't eat? ”

"I've eaten it, I'm bringing my sister-in-law to buy some rations."

Only then did the shopkeeper see Qin Liusu behind him, and the shopkeeper looked at Qin Liusu Although he was wearing a coarse cloth, he had an extraordinary temperament, which was different from ordinary women, and he was relieved.

"Is this the daughter-in-law of Brother Niu's unmarried? Outstanding temperament, not bad, not bad. ”

Niu Da blushed rarely, glanced back at Qin Liusu, and explained in a panic: "The store is joking again, this is my sister-in-law." ”

Looking at Qin Liusu's bright smile, the store knew that he had made a mistake and was very embarrassed, but fortunately, Qin Liusu only cared about these rations.

In the end, Qin Liusu bought half of the rice and carried it to the ox cart.

Qin Liusu thought about it, the Sun family did not have a single livestock, and the only hen was also used by the second elder of the Sun family to replenish his body.

This was a bit troublesome, so I went to the shop selling chickens and ducks with Niu Da, bought two hens, a rooster and three ducks, and went to the cattle house next door to look at the donkeys.

"The uncle's family also has no livestock, what does Brother Niu think of this donkey?"

Niu Da looked in the direction of Qin Liusu's fingers, "Although it is a little smaller, it is not bad, it should be too old to raise it for a few months, I think it is okay, go and ask how much it is in the store." ”

Of course, there is no need to say this, Qin Liusu asked the price early, saying that it was two taels of silver, Qin Liusu was a little distressed, so he said that he had agreed with the store and made a deal with one or two silver.

The two of them went back with the donkeys and the ox cart with joy.

Although the little guy recognized Qin Liusu, he still felt strange in the end, and he was still chattering along the way.

"Don't you think it's strange, sir? How much does a woman know? ”

Boss Ling unfolded the fan, fanned it a few times, and then got up again, knocking on the little guy's head.

"That's why I said, shepherd boy, you're stupid!"

With a smile on the corner of Boss Ling's mouth, he felt more and more interesting, and returned to the county office with his body shaken.

The old mother waited at the door early, and when she saw that Boss Ling had returned safely, she was relieved.

"Son, don't run around, I heard that the previous county lord was caught in an unknown corner and made a fuss, what should you do if something happens to me?"

Boss Ling hurriedly comforted his mother: "Mother, don't talk nonsense, the previous county commander was born because of all the evil, I am a Qing official who loves the people like a son, how can I end up with a fate?" ”

"But really? Isn't it because the name of the place is so strong? ”

"Really, truer than pearls!"

Old Madam Ling breathed a sigh of relief, "I have to pick the skin of this little girl Hongxiang and tell her to scare me!" ”
