Four treasures? Why is it only the Four Treasures? She had only taken a few sheets of paper, a brush, and an inkstand. That inkstone was only useful when using a brush. Usually, it would still have some space, thus Duan Xiaohe used it to place on the table.
There were only three of them, how could there be four treasures?!
"Are you trying to scam me?" She took out two or three coppers and pressed them into his palm. "Take them with you and buy two malts. When you've had enough, go home by yourself."
Qin Rui looked at her back as she walked further and further away. He opened his palm and touched the two to three coins that he had given her.
Duan Xiaohe took this opportunity to take a tour around the other shops that sold clothes and fabrics in the town. She bought a few centimeters of suitable clothes and prepared to go back to learn to make clothes from Begonia.
When they arrived at the agreed meeting place with Liu Wang's family, Liu Wang and his wife were already there waiting. Noticing how the two of them seemed to be at odds with one another, it was likely that they had gotten into a fight just now.
After returning to the Liu Village, Duan Xiaohe first took the things she bought back home. Then, she ate a simple meal from the meat patty she bought, and went to the Haitang's family to ask about the situation there. After getting a clear understanding of the price, Duan Xiaohe was straightforward and directly paid it.
Seeing that she was being so straightforward, Liu Jinfu said that he would complete the remaining procedures and send them over to her. As such, Duan Xiaohe saved himself a lot of trouble.
She stood at the door of her house and pondered for a bit. When she thought about the expressions of the couple when they returned from the town, she decided to return home first. After returning home and telling Liu San about all of his troubles, he finally felt a little better.
Duan Xiaohe was elated when she mentioned the selling price of Begonia's embroidered cloth. While talking, she would hurry up and draw out the patterns for the next round. At the same time, she would also plan her location for the store. She was extremely busy there.
"Wife, why don't you go to the county and give it a try?"
"Huh?"
Duan Xiaohe came over with a smile, "How long will it take to get to the county?"
"It had rained heavily a while ago, blocking the road. If I were to go to the county now, I would have gone early in the morning and would have been there by noon."
Duan Xiaohe thought that she would have to walk for a few days and nights. Originally, it was only six hours. It sounded abnormal, but in a place where there was no car and only an oxcart, it was already very close.
"Alright, let's try it out at the county level next time." Right, let's buy a green ox too, right? "
Liu San's eyes lit up. If there was an ox, everything in the house would be convenient.
The more Duan Xiaohe thought about it, the hotter her heart became. She couldn't wait for the next market. Shall we go tomorrow? "
The Liu San laughed, "What are you so anxious for? If one bought them daily, one would not be able to keep the price down even if one sold them at a hefty price. Even an ox might not necessarily be a good one. "Wife is not in a hurry, let's go and take a look next time."
"As she spoke, she took her little hand and looked at her affectionately." Wife, go to sleep. "
Duan Xiaohe's eyebrows twitched, and she immediately slapped his forehead. "Go wash your face."
In the morning of the second day, Duan Xiaohe cut the paper into small sections, drew out new patterns, and then sent it over to the Begonia. She told her that she might not sell it in the town next time and would instead sell it in the county.
Thinking that Qin Rui said it could at least be sold for fifteen minutes, the Begonia couldn't help but laugh. Haitang's mother had looked at her a few times and when she saw that her daughter had become as lively as she had been when Qin Rui was still here, she cried tears of joy.
The transvestite almost gave Duan Xiaohe to her family. She was afraid of the way they acted.
Liu Jinfu did things quickly, and all the procedures for the land were handed over to her the next day. With his own land in his hands, Duan Xiaohe pulled Liu San along to pull the weeds in the field away, preparing to grow the sugar cane.
Liu San went down to the ground first. Seeing that she was about to go down too, he told her to go home and wait. Duan Xiaohe's heart was burning, but she refused to leave. Liu San was afraid that she would be too tired to bask in the sunlight, hence he forced her to sit under a large tree.
"Even though we still haven't gotten married yet, I'm still your man after you enter my house. I have to love you. If you don't want to go home, just sit here and watch. I can see you when I look up. "
These words made her feel a bit embarrassed. She had changed from her sloppy sitting posture to sitting under a tree in a very pretentious manner.
Liu Da touched his clothes from an unknown place, rolled up his sleeves and followed the Liu San in working in the fields. Duan Xiaohe thought that although she looked foolish, she was still a good person. It was a pity, a pity.
Just like that, days passed until the market time. Duan Xiaohe touched her money bag that had dried up a long time ago, and directly went to the Lucky Coil Restaurant to look for Qian Qiaoqiao.
"I knew that sister would definitely come back."
That's right, she didn't finish her words last time. In the end, she had to rely on him to sell those embroidered pads, and he was also generous so she definitely had to return.
"It's just that, I really can't teach you this Water Steamed Bun."
Qian Qiaoqiao did not mind, "It's fine, as long as you tell me the method of the filling, I will do the rest myself."
Duan Xiaohe laughed, "How about this, I will teach you something else."
She passed the method to make red bean paste to Qian Qiaoqiao and taught her how to make some pastries. Qian Qiaoqiao was extremely satisfied and could not stop smiling.
Duan Xiaohe pointed to the Barbaric Cow outside, "My hubby has been waiting for me for a while, I should be going back now."
Only then did Qian Qiaoqiao see that there was a tall man standing outside the tavern. He was startled for a moment, and then called for Liu San.
She tactfully rejected Qian Qiaoqiao's good intentions, saying that she still had to take a look at the sugarcane seeds. Qian Qiaoqiao then personally brought her there, and taught her how to choose a good seed. She also taught her how to plant a seed, how to rationally use a field and so on.
"How could Keeper Qian know so much?"
Qian Qiaoqiao looked at the admiration in Duan Xiaohe's eyes and laughed, "Before I grew my family, I also grew crops."
After separating with Qian Qiaoqiao, Duan Xiaohe then pulled Liu San by saying that they were looking for an elegant shop that sold pen and paper, Liu San was puzzled, and asked her why he wanted to buy that thing. Ever since he took Qin Rui's Three Flats and Three Treasures, Qin Rui had asked her about the loss of money every time he caught her, making her very annoyed.
The Liu San brought her to find an elegant shop. When the two went in to take a look, they were dumbfounded.
In ancient China, there were many scholars and farmers, and Great Chong were the same as well. All high and low quality goods were expensive, so as long as one could get close to a scholar, they would become extremely expensive, causing Duan Xiaohe's heart to tremble.
"Let me take a look at your four treasures."
The shop assistant was passionate, he did not despise anyone, and took out something for Duan Xiaohe to see, pen, ink, paper, and paper.
Four?
"Do you have the kind of inkstone that can be grinded with water directly on the inkstone?"
The shop assistant looked up, "Yo, that's good stuff. We don't have any here, maybe we don't even have in the county. That's something only the officials and nobles in the capital can afford."
When he thought about the ink stone platform that she placed on the corner of the table, Duan Xiaohe's heart trembled again. He didn't know that Qin Rui was so rich, but he wondered who he was.
