With yesterday's demand and supply, the Loquat Ointment was sold out in less than two hours.
held the seventy-two coins he had just earned. Excluding the thirty-six coins from the wooden box and the twenty-six coins he had earned yesterday, he had sixty-two coins in his pocket.
Before she closed the stall, Jin Xiaolou spread the word that the business would be closed for one day, and the next day would still be 12 boxes per day.
If she were to return to Wellhead Village tonight, it would be hard for him to do so, but she was afraid that she would not make it in time. Jin Xiaolou brought Gao Lang to a small tavern in the town and spent five coins to stay in the guest room on the second floor of the tavern.
Jin Xiaolou and Gao Lang shared a room.
It was simply because a room's price was five taels of gold. It was simply too expensive! Jin Xiaolou did not have the money to buy two rooms.
Besides, the two of them lived together day in and day out.
Naturally, there was only one bed and one blanket in the guest room. Normally, he and Gao Lang would be comfortable on the same worn-out straw mat, but suddenly, he had to lie on the same bed as Gao Lang and cover himself with the same blanket … Jin Xiaolou felt that it was strange.
What troubled Jin Xiaolou even more was that when Gao Lang first entered the room, he saw the big wooden bucket behind the peacock blue carvings on the screen. The bucket was filled with hot water and Gao Lang opened his eyes and shouted that he wanted to take a bath.
As he said that, he naturally pulled Jin Xiaolou's hand towards the barrel: "My wife, help me undress."
The candles in the room were extinguished, and Gao Lang's tone was somewhat childish, but his voice was actually as pleasant to hear as ever.
As she spoke, the hot air that was rising up was all over Jin Xiaolou's face. It was burning hot, causing her to unconsciously blush.
Not allowing Jin Xiaolou to reject her request, Gao Lang already started to take off her clothes.
"Be more reserved." Jin Xiaolou quickly pulled up his clothes again and felt ashamed of her previous shyness. In terms of intelligence, he was only a five year old child!
If she really had some ulterior motives towards him, wouldn't she be worse than a beast?
"My wife, what are you doing?" Gao Lang opened her eyes wide, her bright eyes gazing through the mist at Jin Xiaolou. "Oh, I know now, does my wife want to take a bath too?"
Gao Lang seemed to have suddenly realized something and nodded. "Then, why don't the two of us bathe together?"
Jin Xiaolou picked up the feather duster beside the screen and knocked it down towards Gao Lang's soft and fluffy head.
"Wash my ass!" After Jin Xiaolou finished speaking, she immediately saw Gao Lang covering her head with both hands, her small mouth raised, and her eyes filled with tears, increasing in volume.
Seeing that the tears were about to fall from those deep eyelashes, Jin Xiaolou really couldn't bear it anymore. He was still a child! She didn't have any bad intentions even if she wanted to bathe together. How could she be so fierce towards him? She really was an evil, bad sister!
Jin Xiaolou sighed, just as she was about to extend her hand to wipe away the tears on Gao Lang's face, Gao Lang raised his hand that was covering the top of his head, his long fingers moved, receiving the signal to move quickly. With a flick of his finger, a yellow bean flew out with the wind, with a pu pu sound, it extinguished the candle.
Jin Xiaolou suddenly felt his vision darken, following that, a pair of large and warm hands wrapped around her waist. The man's strong and sturdy arms gently wrapped around his body, and his entire body actually lost weight as she fell to the side.
The expected pain did not come, and Jin Xiaolou fell into a warm and soft embrace.
She was hugged by Gao Lang and laid down on the big bed.
"What are you doing!" Jin Xiaolou was anxious and angry, struggling to get up from the bed.
But when Gao Lang hugged her from behind, it was like hugging a little cat, causing Jin Xiaolou to be unable to move.
Jin Xiaolou's heart was perturbed, she really did not know what Silly Young Master was going to do, her brain was not strong enough, her strength was not weak, if he truly wanted to do something, she probably did not have any chance to retaliate.
Who knew that after waiting for a while, he didn't see any movement behind him?
Gao Lang only gently hugged Jin Xiaolou as his chin was pressed against the top of Jin Xiaolou's head. His light breath blew through her hair one after another, causing Jin Xiaolou's ears to itch.
Just when he thought Gao Lang had fallen asleep like this, he heard him say next to his ear, "My wife, don't move. I want to sleep with my wife in my arms.
Gao Lang's voice slightly sunk at the very end, causing him to be startled. It was as if the person behind him wasn't an idiot.
allowed Gao Lang to hug her as she fell into a deep sleep, but she was still thinking about her own plans in her mind.
If the plan went well, he could earn thirty-six pieces of money a day. Ten days was three hundred and sixty pieces of money, and he could earn one tael of silver a month.
Three months later, with three taels of silver and the money needed to sell rice, he would definitely be able to open a shop in the county!
This way, he would be able to bring Lin'er back.
Early morning of the second day, Jin Xiaolou and Gao Lang waited outside the embroidery workshop.
Because she wanted to take Jin Xiaolou into the County Magistrate Mansion, Ah Bi tried to stall Aunt Mei by herself. She carried the wooden chest with the embroidery items out the door and led the two of them to the town entrance to take a carriage.
This ancient carriage had suffered much more than a car. Even though it was sitting on a thick cotton cushion embroidered with brocade, it still felt very painful to the buttocks, not to mention that the bumpy mountain road was comparable to a roller coaster.
Jin Xiaolou, who never get sick, only sat in the carriage for a while before she started to see stars, and wanted to throw up.
Ah Bi glanced at Jin Xiaolou's expression and hurriedly took out two pieces of orange peel from her bag, crushed them and placed them under Jin Xiaolou's nose. "I knew it, you look like a person who has never ridden in a carriage before.
Seeing that Gao Lang beside her did not say much, but was considerate towards her, upon seeing that Jin Xiaolou was not feeling well, she hurriedly moved closer to him, stroking his back time and time again. Abi then said: "You, you have such a beautiful husband, yet you are still suffering from this pain, go and see what that young master and I are doing."
However, A-Bi didn't expect that this foolish man had actually seen the world before. It didn't seem like he was riding in a carriage for the first time.
Jin Xiaolou was shocked speechless. She only managed to catch her breath when the carriage came to a stop outside He Mansion's main entrance.
Gao Lang was left in the carriage, waiting for them to return.
Jin Xiaolou followed behind Ah Bi, and was led by a servant dressed in green through a side door. They entered, waited in the sedan chair hall, and sat together with the sedan bearers who had settled down to drink tea.
Just as he sat down, he heard a sharp female voice: "Jin Xiaolou? "Why are you here?"
