If Liu San didn't tell his, she would have forgotten about it.
In the original owner's memory, the two brothers and sisters of the Duan Clan were as thin as monkeys. Even if mother and father saved what they had, it still wouldn't be enough for the two children.
Duan Xiaohe this transcender did not have any feelings for the Duan Clan, and was even more worried that if he went back, he would cause trouble. However, he hesitated on whether he should go back or not. Seeing her silence, Liu San just thought that she was missing her home.
"When we get to the county, we'll bring some fresh food for our brothers and sisters. We'll give half of the cured meat and ham at home to your parents …" Saying so, he scratched his head again, "I don't know what my shortcomings are, maybe I should just leave these 10 taels of silver to them."
Duan Xiaohe's heart warmed, "No need, that 10 taels is for you to spend. As for the money over there, I'll take it."
The Liu San argued with her for a while, then carried her into the house and threw her on the brick bed.
The next morning, Little Qing brought her group to the county. Begonia and Qin Rui still had nothing to say, but the awkwardness and uneasiness between the two of them had eased quite a bit. Especially when they passed by the woods, the two of them could not wait to scan any edible animals in the forest with their eyes.
Fortunately, they had brought a lot of rations with them this time, so they couldn't afford to delay on the way. Thus, they just casually ate some. When they reached the county, they first went to the County Government Office to pay the seventy-eight taels of silver. Previously, he did not know that the yamen would require a notarial fee of two taels of silver. Liu San's temper rose, and he was unwilling to give the two taels of silver to the yamen. Qin Rui pulled him back, and quickly gave the two taels of silver to the yamen runner, adding another two taels of silver to the yamen runner, it was considered a bribe. Unexpectedly, that yamen runner was quite righteous. He only charged two taels of silver for the notary's fee before entering the yamen.
Duan Xiaohe heaved a sigh of relief, raised her finger and poked Liu San's head, scolding him for not knowing what was good for him.
Liu San snorted disdainfully, saying that ifhe were to take the job, she would absolutely not receive any benefits.
Duan Xiaohe stood on the first floor of the yamen and patted his shoulder. That's right, that's right, only my hubby has any prospects.
The place they had agreed to meet with those young misses was a restaurant in the county. After leaving the County Government Office, they directly went over.
Originally, they were sitting at the ordinary seats on the first floor, thinking that they would be able to see the young ladies as soon as they entered. They didn't expect that as soon as they entered the restaurant, someone would invite them to a private room on the second floor.
The child brought them up to the second floor and entered the private room. The two misses who were already waiting there had a maid with them and they both turned to look at Qin Rui.
Hehe, Duan Xiaohe thought, if it wasn't for them, who were in the way, the two young ladies would have gone up to rape Qin Rui.
Qin Rui was rather open-minded, he greeted the two young misses and started chatting. Liu San was a little reserved, and no matter howhe sat, she could not help but feel disheartened. Duan Xiaohe secretly looked at the two young misses, then looked at Liu San. Seeing that the Liu San really did not have any feelings for the young miss, she felt at ease.
Begonia tightly bit her lips, fiercely pulling on the jujube red tablecloth, and from time to time, her eyes would glance at Qin Rui who was happily chatting with him.
Qin Rui was about to give someone a hand sign, so Duan Xiaohe kicked him under the table. Only then did Qin Rui remember the important matter, and let Duan Xiaohe show the patterns she had drawn to the two misses.
Duan Xiaohe was a little nervous and took out all four or five of them. The two ladies were clearly good friends. These four or five styles were all different, but they were able to match up with each other. However, since they did not want to be dressed exactly like him, they all pretended to be in a difficult situation, thinking that she would be able to let them pass by.
The two of them had secretly fought for a long time but still couldn't come to a conclusion. Duan Xiaohe originally wanted to research the style of the clothes the young lady was wearing, only then would they sell well. But now, both of them had disrupted her plans!
Fortunately, she had a clever mouth and borrowed a brush from her second brother. She corrected a few of the brush and managed to coax the two of them to the point that they were overjoyed. He measured the two people and wrote them down, asking how long it would take for the Begonia to sell. Begonia thought for a while, said at least half a month.
They were all young mistresses from rich families, and everyone wanted to fight for a position. When they heard that it would be another half month, they decided against it and said that it would take at most four or five days for the shop to do something. Qin Rui used a man's trick and coaxed the girl to a point that she was embarrassed to answer, thus this matter was settled.
After the two ladies reluctantly left, there was a third, and a fourth, both ancestors who were not to be offended. If it wasn't for Qin Rui today, perhaps Duan Xiaohe really wouldn't be able to keep this situation in check.
"Doctor Qin, why don't you change your profession? You can do business with me in the future."
Qin Rui's mouth and tongue were dry, and he drank a few mouthfuls of tea in succession. Only then did he wave his hand and say: "Do it, it's too tiring. It's not like I have no money to spend. "
Duan Xiaohe clenched her teeth, "I will give you a commission."
Qin Rui looked at her with her pair of deep peach blossoms, "How about we open a shop in the county, find a few skilled embroidery lady, and let them buy clothes so they can look at the flowers, saving us the trouble of going back and forth?"
Duan Xiaohe immediately became listless. It's not like I haven't thought about it, but I don't have any money right now. Why don't you invest in something? "
Qin Rui shook his head, "I've been poor as well. I went out for a walk and smelled like makeup. "
With that, Qin Rui stood up and walked out. A circle of bite marks appeared on the lips of Begonia's mouth. Whenhe saw him leave, she stood up as well.
"I'll go out and take a look as well."
Liu San shifted his butt, "It's not safe in the county. Begonia is a girl, what would you do if you met a bad person?"
Duan Xiaohe pressed him down, "There's Qin Rui, what are you worried about?"
Just as he was speaking, a little girl wearing pink clothes without a servant girl entered. On her head were two steps, one on the left and the other on the right. From a glance, one could tell that they were extremely valuable. His embroidered shoes had two bells hanging from them, making them look like a scenery when he walked.
"This is the last one?" Was I picked by someone else? "
When the young lady stared, she had a bit of an innate aura. From the looks of it, if Duan Xiaohe did not give a perfect explanation, she would have flipped the table upside down.
No matter how awesome a person was, he couldn't help but praise her, let alone a woman. Duan Xiaohe's persuasion went up a level, and said that this was either picked for her or kept for her. She pointed out that the waist was the most obvious, and the hem of the skirt was the simplest, most beautiful and the most elegant. She also said that the flowers matched her nobility, and the kind of fabric showed off her temperament the most.
After she finished speaking, Duan Xiaohe began to admire herself. The Liu San at the side did not understand anything. She nodded her head at everything her wife said, making Duan Xiaohe seem even more capable.
This girl was immediately happy, seeing that she was wearing the same clothes as her, she said she wanted Duan Xiaohe to get her an identical set next time. Duan Xiaohe was ecstatic, the finished product had not come out yet, and she was receiving another deal.
Qin Rui and the Begonia had gone out. Although the Liu San knew how to read one or two words, he did not know how to make this thing and was afraid of making a mistake. Duan Xiaohe could only go up in person, it wasn't like the Liu San would sell her out, she just had to say that the girl wrote it anyway.
"I'll come back for some clothes in ten days. Next time, draw one for my mother and my grandmother as well. The design will be more stable, but you can't be too inflexible. You can't make it too extravagant either."
She directly threw a note that was worth a hundred taels, Duan Xiaohe thought to herself, if the finished product hasn't come out yet, there's no need to pay first, after all, she can't find it. Before she could say anything, the little girl said, "I will pay for it all at once. You go buy my materials for the best, I'm going to wear them back for my family. If you don't do it well, you'll lose your reputation. "As for the rest of the money, I'll reward you with it."
Duan Xiaohe's hands trembled a little. Three of them were already 45, and spending them to buy materials would only cost her more than 10 taels of silver. She still had half her money left!
He made it!
After the girl left, Duan Xiaohe and Liu San still sat there for a long time. They were all people who had lived a poor life, and now that the amount of money in their hands had increased, they felt a little helpless.
"Wifey, how long are we going to sit here for?"
Duan Xiaohe then remembered what she was doing, she kept the banknotes and called for Liu San to come out of the restaurant. There were no phone calls in the ancient times, who knew where Qin Rui and Begonia went to. Liu San looked at the restaurant behind him, and said: "Why don't we go in and wait."
She thought for a while, then went in to inform the shopkeeper that her surname was Liu. She told people to wait here when they came looking for her.
He brought Liu San on a tour around the town. First, he looked at the materials, and then quickly picked the best one, choosing two of them and asked them about the price. Only then did he realize that his price was too low. When the waiter saw that she was generous, he took a piece of dark blue plain cloth and said that this color matched well with her husband's.
Duan Xiaohe also thought that it was pretty good. Liu San felt that it was too expensive, so he shook his head. The shop assistant smiled and said how he could bear to buy it for his wife, but was reluctant to buy it for himself. These words made Duan Xiaohe think of how the crabapple had said that she didn't sew Liu San a piece of clothes, so she paid for it.
After buying the cloth, they also bought some things for the original owner's parents and siblings.
When they were almost back at the restaurant, they heard a few bystanders gossiping about who was the little young master, the one who always tried to rob the girls in the county, and got killed by someone.
As soon as she entered the restaurant, the shopkeeper told her that her two friends had returned and were waiting for her in the private room. Duan Xiaohe simply ordered a table full of dishes. Since she couldn't leave tonight, she decided to stay in the county for the night.
After going upstairs to the private room, Duan Xiaohe told Duan Xiaohe about what happened to the little young master. The transvestite's face immediately became deathly pale, and its body trembled, unable to accept the news.
Duan Xiaohe's heart jumped, and she asked Qin Rui who had a gloomy expression.
"What's going on?"
