Chapter XXXIII. miss

Si Qi and Musk Yue saw that Qingwen wanted to buy red bean hairpins, and they couldn't help but start laughing again.

However, Qingwen ignored them, and still bought this hairpin, which cost two taels of silver at once.

Fortunately, Qingwen still wears a few coins of broken silver, otherwise she really doesn't know how to go down the street next.

Next, the group went to visit various vendors and shops, and sure enough, Musk Yue didn't buy anything except food, and Qingwen didn't dare to buy anything more because she spent two taels of silver.

Fan Er didn't have much money, plus he bought a lot of food with Musk Yue, the purse has bottomed out, only Si Qi, because it doesn't cost much money to buy things every time, so I bought a lot of things later, like silk flowers, silver rings, earrings, and finally I actually bought a piece of cloth, but fortunately Qingwen and Si Qi helped her get some, otherwise she was alone, and she really couldn't lift it.

Seeing that the sun was about to go down, the group decided to eat dinner outside and then go back, a few big girls were afraid of this fan's purse, so they didn't go to the restaurant outside, or went to the chaos stall where Qingwen and Musk Yue had been before, but I didn't expect to say it, Si Qi also said that he often went to that stall to eat, and recently the boss also launched a new flavor, asking everyone to taste it together. What to eat, and also recommended seafood chaos to them.

"This is the new flavor I told you, it tastes delicious, you can try it too," Si Qi turned to the proprietress and said, "I want a medium portion of seafood chaos, more spicy." ”

The proprietress laughed when she heard her words: "I remember this girl, every time I come to our store to eat chaos, it is more spicy, what about the rest of the girls, what do you eat?" ”

Since Si Qi has strongly recommended it, the taste is not bad, Qingwen thought, so she also ordered a medium portion of seafood chaos, not spicy, and Musk Yue and Fan Er ordered a large portion and a small portion.

After the chaos came up, it was really delicious, and the girls even drank a lot of soup in the end.

After eating, everyone planned to go home, at this time Si Qi remembered that before the leave, the second girl Yingchun ordered her to buy cloud cakes, after all, it was the master's attention, dare not disobey, fortunately this is not far from a restaurant, the restaurant's cloud cake is good, and a few people accompanied Si Qi to buy cloud cake.

As soon as Musk Yue heard that she was going to buy pastries, she also entered the restaurant with Si Qi, and Qingwen and Fan'er didn't want to go any more, so they waited for them on the side of the road.

Liu Fang, the grandson of Liu Biao, the Duke of Liguo, just came back from visiting his aunt today, and sat in the carriage, Liu Fang thought about his aunt's description of the withered appearance, and she was embarrassed.

Since her cousin was lost, her aunt has been getting thinner and thinner, and she wants to find it back every day, but after looking for more than ten years, there is no news of her cousin.

Thinking that her mother was only two years younger than her aunt, but her aunt looked more than ten years older than her mother, Liu Fang couldn't help but sigh in her heart, feeling panicked in her heart, so she opened the curtain and breathed out.

I don't want to see a woman, with a raw flower and a moonlight appearance, standing on the side of the road and seeming to be waiting for someone, Liu Fang is not a lascivious and frivolous person, but I just think that this woman looks really familiar, but I can't remember where I have seen it, maybe it is a maid at home, and when she comes out to shop, she doesn't want to stop the car.

And Qingwen waited until Siqi and Musk Yue finished buying pastries, and then returned to Jiafu together.

When she arrived at home, Liu Fang was eating with her mother, while thinking about where she had seen the woman today, but she couldn't remember that Liu's mother, who was eating together, saw that her son had chewed a bite of bamboo shoots for a long time and didn't swallow them, so she couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong today, even if this bamboo shoot is delicious, ask someone to make it every day in the future, why don't you want to chew a bite of food for so long, and you are still reluctant to swallow it." ”

Liu Fang raised her head and was about to explain to her mother, when she found that the woman she met this evening was five points similar to her mother.

So he hurriedly said to his mother: "Mother, in addition to Ah Ci, I also have a sister who is outcast." ”

"What do you say, what do you say, your mother and I gave birth to you and Ah Ci, how can you have a sister." Mrs. Liu slapped Liu Fang's head with a palm and said.

Mrs. Liu practiced martial arts when she was young, and a heroic woman who rode a horse and archery, although she had long since stopped practicing martial arts after marrying Liu Fang's father, her hand strength was much greater than that of ordinary women, and this time, Qingwen's shadow was taken away from Liu Fang's head. After waiting for two days in a row, Qingwen didn't wait for Mrs. Wang's words, Qingwen wondered if Mrs. Wang had forgotten herself.

But even so, Qingwen didn't dare to leave in advance, in case she left ahead of schedule and Mrs. Wang happened to find herself, then she couldn't tell, not to mention anything else, but a charge of self-indulgence, Qingwen couldn't afford to bear it.

Therefore, it was not until the morning of the third day that Mrs. Wang said that she wanted to see Qingwen, asked a few questions, praised a few words, and then sent Qingwen back.

Qingwen took her things back to the room behind Yihong Courtyard, although she didn't come back for a few days, she already had a shallow strangeness to the whole house, and even the brocade quilt on the bed felt colder than usual.

Qingwen closed the door, sorted out the clothes and the like, took a small bag, took off her shoes and went to bed, and then put down the bed curtain, sat down on the quilt by herself, took the box she saved money on weekdays, opened her small package, and counted the same.

This is a habit that Qingwen has only developed in this life, counting her family property, every time she receives monthly money and rewards, Qingwen will pull up the bed curtain, sit on the quilt, put the new ones in, and then combine them with the previous ones, and count them again.

This is as if giving the new things in the box a move-in ceremony, telling them that from now on they will be a family with the things in the box, and they are all my Qingwen's things.

Every time she sends out the monthly money, Qingwen usually counts them with a smile, and if she gets a reward from Baoyu, she counts them twice with a smile.

And today, Qingwen got a silver ticket of five hundred taels from Concubine Yuan, and a pair of palace flowers, and Mrs. Wang also rewarded herself with a pair of pearl flowers.

Qingwen decided to happily count her things five times, after all, this is the most reward she has received in her two lifetimes, and she must treat it well.

“…… Three hundred taels, four hundred taels, five hundred taels, six hundred taels, six hundred and thirty taels, six hundred and thirty-eight taels. ”

After carefully and joyfully counting five times, Qingwen finally determined that she had a total of 638 taels of cash and silver tickets, and a number of jewelry, which was converted into a net worth of more than 1,000 taels.

For the first time, Qingwen felt that she might already be a landlord, although she could only be regarded as a small landlord now, but Qingwen was very content.

After all, the daughters of many petty officials, the overall marriage is only a few hundred taels of silver.

And Qingwen inquired, the land of Zhuangzi near the capital is expensive, such as the Zhuangzi managed by her cousin, the good land is ten taels per mu, and the flat field is eight taels per mu, and the thin land is five taels per mu, the mountain land is the cheapest, and it takes three taels of the main family to buy, if you plant fruit trees and valuable wood, then it will be a little higher.

Even if the price is so high, it's not something you can buy with money, you have to have the right to do it, otherwise the news of the land sale won't reach your ears at all, and it will already be bought.

The price of land near the capital is too expensive, and it is priceless, Qingwen didn't plan to buy the land near the capital from the beginning, Qingwen thought about buying, it was the land of the counties around the capital.

These places, because they are close to the capital, are basically impossible for local ruffians or bandit bullies.

And because in these places, although there are not as many dignitaries and dignitaries as in the capital, many dignitaries and dignitaries have bought Zhuangzi in these places, and maybe they offend a person on the street, and that person may be older than the county magistrate of their own county, and their whole family will have to move their heads the next day.

And because it is not far from the capital, it is extremely convenient to take the imperial examination or do business, as long as you are willing to work hard, it is to buy vegetables, pick to the capital, and you can get twice as much profit than in the county.

Moreover, these places, because they are also some distance away from the capital, the price of fields is not as expensive as in the capital.

Although it is not as cheap as the places in the north and the south that no one wants to go to, it is about the same price as other places, all of which are five taels and one mu of fertile land, three or two acres of flat land, two and two acres of thin land, and one or two acres of mountainous land. When Taizu pacified the world, in order to benefit the name of farmers, the price of land was averaged, but the capital and the border land, one was too popular, the other was not going, and the emperors of previous dynasties could not change it, so these two places, less than a hundred years after the founding of the country, the land price was far from the beginning.

However, the land price in most parts of the country is still unified, at least on the surface, and the difference is not too far apart.

Qingwen has calculated her net worth, and when the time comes, she will buy 50 acres of fertile land, and then buy another 100 acres of flat land, after all, like thin land and mountainous land, she can't use it at all.

The rest of the money went to the county seat to buy a small courtyard with a façade, from the inside to the outside, all of which were fully purchased, at least two hundred taels, and a total of six hundred and fifty taels of silver.

I still have a surplus, and when I pour, I will go out to plant for others, and I will collect the rent by myself, and the façade of the yard, Qingwen has already thought about it, if she doesn't rent it out, she will open a show or garment shop when the time comes.

In this way, in addition to the little dead money collected in the future, he can also have a little more income, if he can meet a lovely person in the future, if he can promise not to take a concubine for the rest of his life, he will marry him and have one or two children.

If you can't meet it, you will go to the hands of Tzu Yuzhu or human traffickers, buy a child, recognize it as your own child, and provide for yourself in the future.

Qingwen thought of this, her heart was even happier, and she looked at the silver jewelry in front of her more kindly, these are not just silver jewelry, these are the capital of her future life in this world.
