Chapter 11: Where the Ugly Ghost Came From
She didn't buy anything, she left the shop.
The shopkeeper has long been surprised, his shop is mostly seen by people, but there are very few people who really spend money to buy.
After that, Shen Qiushui went to see a few other types of shops, and the most popular one was a restaurant.
The proprietress is very good, and the fragrance is ten miles.
The restaurant is to make money, and the money comes slowly, plus Shen Qiushui only used to open her mouth in her previous life, she never cooked, and the road of making money by nothing was basically broken.
After walking around, I was really thirsty, so I sat in the tea shed and bought a cup of tea for a penny.
The tea shed was full, and a group of people were chatting.
"This year's township exam is early, and the time for the exam should be in these few days." A middle-aged man at the next table of Shen Qiushui said, "Hey, Lao Zhang, I remember that you have a talented son, do you plan to participate in the township examination this year?" ”
"Yes, the township test is held once every three years, so you can't miss the opportunity!"
"How can you go, you don't know what the situation is in my family, you are looking forward to the grain in the field, and last year's harvest was not good, huh!"
……
Listening to these words at the adjacent table, Shen Qiushui suddenly remembered Lin Xiucai, who had knocked out the original owner and robbed the money and escaped.
Lin Xiucai not only borrowed a hundred taels in the name of the original body, but also coaxed the original body to steal Mo Changtian's private money.
Is it for the sake of the township test to deceive the original body's money?
Shen Qiushui tapped his hand on the table, pondering.
If she didn't retaliate against Lin Xiucai, she always felt uncomfortable in her heart.
After drinking all the faint tea in the bowl, Shen Qiushui summoned the shopkeeper and left in a hurry after checking out.
She walked around the town all day, and she had some ideas in her heart, and she had to wait until she went to the county seat tomorrow to know.
It takes half a day to walk from the village to the county seat, and if you go to the county seat today, you won't have time to come back after dark.
When I returned to Mo's house, I bumped into my sister-in-law Miao Cuicui who came out of the hall with a bowl.
When there was no farm work, the Mo family only ate two meals, but today is different.
The eldest brother and second brother of the Mo family stood at the door with the tools for doing farm work, as if waiting for someone.
Counting the days, it's almost time for spring ploughing.
Shen Qiushui didn't think much about it, and walked around them into the courtyard.
She had just walked a few steps when she heard Mrs. Mo's complaining words from her room.
"The third child, it's not me talking about you, what's the matter if you lie down on the bed after eating, a large piece of land at home is still not cultivated, hurry up for me, your eldest brother and second brother are waiting at the door!"
"Mother, the wound on my body is not healed, and I can't hold a hoe." Mo Changtian leaned his head and said with a wooden face.
He has long been disappointed in the Mo family, and now he is starting over again, and he doesn't want to go down the old path of another life.
"! You can already go to the ground, why can't you hold a hoe, hurry up and get up for the old lady! The more Mrs. Mo spoke, the more angry she became, and her volume increased a lot.
Her adopted son seems to have changed since he woke up, Mo Changtian used to be a good hand in the field, and she didn't need to say much, he would take the initiative to plow the land, and most of the family's fields were counting on him.
Mrs. Mo persuaded Mo Changtian not to move, so she simply went directly to pull the other party's bedding.
Shen Qiushui walked into the door at this time, and when he saw this scene, he coughed in a low voice, probably not expecting Mo Changtian to be so rigid, and he couldn't hold back his laughter.
"Mother, you hurt your muscles and bones for a hundred days, and if you are not careful, you will be lame, you are forcing Changtian to go to the ground at this time, aren't you harming him." Shen Qiushui held back a smile.
"Shut up!"
"I'm all for your sake, how heavy Changtian's injury is, everyone can see it, if you knew that you forced him to go to the ground, maybe how would you arrange your black heart behind your back."
Mrs. Mo stopped her movements by Shen Qiushui's yin and yang strange words, her eyes widened, her chest rose and fell, and she was about to reprimand angrily, when she heard Shen Qiushui pressing her fingers and rattling.
Thinking of the deflated food she had eaten on Shen Qiushui these days, she subconsciously trembled.
Just outside the door, the boss of the Mo family urged Mrs. Mo to go down the steps.
She cursed under her breath and walked out.
As soon as Mrs. Mo left, Shen Qiushui turned around and closed the door.
Two small radish heads poked their heads out from behind the curtain.
"Is Grandma gone?" Mo Yu lowered his voice, rolled his round eyes, and swept around the room.
Shen Qiushui was very rare to this little baby, walked over and picked her up, rubbed her little head, "Don't be afraid, it's already gone." ”
In the next time, Shen Qiushui was tinkering with the medicinal materials she had picked up before, and she came up with the idea of skin care products, if she could make it successfully, she would not have to worry about the debt.
Several members of the Mo family came back from the field, dug the ground for an afternoon, and were already so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs, and they had to go down to the kitchen by themselves when they came back, and Mrs. Mo's face was extremely ugly.
But when she saw the two wild seeds in the yard, she thought of the silver taels she was about to get, and she couldn't bear it in the end.
Because he was going to the town, Shen Qiushui got up early, and there was no means of transportation in the village, so he relied on his feet all the way.
Shen Qiushui felt that he had never walked such a long way in his life, and his feet were very sore after walking for most of the day, but fortunately, he had come to the county seat.
The county seat is much more lively than the town she went to yesterday, with an endless stream of people coming and going.
The nearest one at the gate of the city is a rouge shop.
On one side of the door, there is a signboard engraved with the word "Zhou".
This is not much different from the rouge shop that Shen Qiushui saw in the town, and the shop in the town should be a branch of this one.
She walked straight inside.
There are a lot of shelves in the store, and there are a lot of rouge gouaches on them, not to mention, there are quite a lot of patterns.
There were many girls in the store to choose, and Shen Qiushui also stepped forward to see a few.
There was a sudden commotion in front of the store.
Shen Qiu subconsciously looked over.
I saw a man in blue holding a folding fan and stepping into the rouge shop gracefully.
The shopkeeper behind the counter in the store hurriedly greeted him.
"Childe, why are you here?"
"I'm going to check the accounts in another month, I'll come to see the business in the store, don't give me anything wrong!"
"Childe, don't worry, our store is the best store in the whole county, with the secret recipe you gave, there will be no problems."
"That's good, my eldest brother doesn't have to keep an eye on it, it's been the last month, and he can't make any splashes, so he will withdraw everyone."
The person who came said nonchalantly, and the folding fan in his hand shook it very forcefully.
The conversation between the master and servant is very informative, but these things may not be secrets, otherwise it would not be possible to tell them in public.
These are other people's business, and Shen Qiushui just glanced at the door, and then focused on the incense powder in his hand.
The incense powder in her hand is contained in a wooden box, and the wooden box is carved with a lot of patterns, a slap, just enough to hold.
The scent of the powder was so special that she had only smelled it in this shop.
Shen Qiushui put her nose down and sniffed, just put the lid on the incense powder box, and was about to put it down, when a hand reached out from behind her and snatched the incense powder box from her hand.
"Tsk, where did you come from?" Words containing contempt and disgust came out of the mouth of the man in blue.
