Whose little lady is so crazy?

Chapter 394 Feiyan's Concerns

"Brother Quan, just ask whatever you want to ask. If you don't want to ask me, just go into the house and check the route." Hong Xiaoduo said with a smile.

Quan Jinghuai said with some guilt: "When I rented the house, I didn't even notice that the beams were not solid. I was so careless."

"So that's what you're talking about. Brother Quan, don't blame yourself. For people like us who used to be alone, when it comes to staying overnight, most of the time, as long as we can shelter from the wind and rain, we don't think too much or look at it so carefully.

I'm not really being meticulous, and I'm just looking for this reason because I don't want to stay here for the New Year.

"Okay, I'll go and plan the route for the next walk." Hong Xiaoduo said, and went to find the atlas.

She said it very lightly, but Quan Jinghuai reminded himself in his heart that he couldn't do this anymore. He could do anything by himself, but now he had six little disciples and Feiyan with him, and he couldn't hurt any of them.

What annoyed him was that he was the oldest among the nine people, but how could he make such a careless mistake.

Moreover, he had personally witnessed houses that had fallen into disrepair and collapsed, injuring or killing people. It was a tragic scene!
That evening, after dinner, Quan Jinghuai stayed in the yard alone to guard it, while everyone else followed Hong Xiaoduo to the town.

I'm going to buy some food for tomorrow's trip. Now that we have two more carriages, I can organize the things and put a lot of things in them.

Before dinner, Tianshu and his master went to buy fodder.

Tianshu, who didn't know that Hong Xiaoduo had several thousand taels of gold notes on her during her trip to the capital, was happy about having two more carriages. But when he was buying fodder, he realized that he would have to buy twice as much fodder. He felt a little sorry for the money, so he bargained with the fodder seller and finally gave up after getting two more bundles of fodder.

After Tianshu and the others left, the man selling fodder complained to others that he had never seen such a smart young man. If it was too expensive, he could just buy some inferior fodder. He wanted both good quality and cheap.

Those who heard it said that maybe he had squandered money elsewhere and couldn't make up for it, so he was trying to make up for it here!

Tianshu didn't care what others said about him, as long as he got two more bundles of grass, it was good.

Hong Xiaoduo only told everyone that she had gold bills on her, but she did not reveal the specific denomination.

Quan Jinghuai also had six little ones, and Feiyan was not curious at all about the denomination of the gold notes.

For them, the most important thing is that she is back and back with everyone.

As long as I'm with her, it doesn't matter if I can't eat big meat buns every meal.

No matter how many people are walking on the street in the town at night, it cannot compare with the prosperity of the capital. Looking around, there are very few people wearing silk and satin, and most of them are wearing the most ordinary homespun clothes.

Hong Xiaoduo held Yaoguang's hand, Feiyan held Yuheng's hand, and the other boys followed closely.

Passing by a snack shop, I picked out some of the things the kids liked and bought some hazelnuts, pine nuts, melon seeds, and peanuts.

When passing by the teahouse, Feiyan remembered to remind Hong Xiaoduo that the tea was almost gone. Hong Xiaoduo said, there was no need to buy tea, as Kaiyang's family had given some as a gift, and she could look for it in the car when she had time.

Passing by a dry goods shop, Hong Xiaoduo saw that the dried fish, smoked meat and bacon looked good, so she bought some extra of each. Not only could she eat them on the way, but she also thought that when she found a place to celebrate the New Year, there might not be such good quality dry goods to buy, so it would be better to buy good ones and keep them in stock.

This year, she has prepared enough New Year's goods. After all, she is richer now than last year.

When passing by a music store, Hong Xiaoduo noticed Feiyan looking inside a few more times, so she invited Feiyan into the store.

The owner of the music shop was actually planning to close the shop, but he didn't expect that there would be a customer coming in, so he hurried out to greet them. "Please, owner, take her to see the zither." Hong Xiaoduo said, motioning Feiyan to come forward.

There weren't many piano stores along the way, and Feiyan looked at none of them that she liked.

In fact, Hong Xiaoduo knew that the reason why Feiyan didn't buy it was, firstly, because the price of the piano she liked was a bit expensive, and secondly, she felt that having another piano would take up space in the car when traveling.

"Don't worry about picking the good ones you like, and don't worry about the money. Now we have two more carriages, and I'm worried that you won't have a place to put the zither you buy." After saying that, Hong Xiaoduo leaned close to Feiyan's ear and whispered, "Even if you pick a pure gold zither, I can afford it."

Feiyan smiled and nodded when she heard this, put aside her worries and followed the shopkeeper to pick out the zither.

Hong Xiaoduo noticed that among the six children, only Yuheng and Yaoguang followed Feiyan in choosing a zither. When the shopkeeper signaled them that they could try playing, they enthusiastically imitated Feiyan by pinching the bamboo nails and plucking the strings.

When they heard the pleasant voice, the two little girls' eyes lit up, and Hong Xiaoduo smiled.

All commodities are divided into different grades, and the same goes for musical instruments. The guzhengs in this music store are divided into three grades.

Hong Xiaoduo followed behind and listened to Feiyan try out the three grades of guzheng. Even though Hong Xiaoduo could not play the guzheng, she could listen with her ears. After listening to the highest grade guzhengs, she could not understand the lower grade ones at all because the difference was too great.

Feiyan's gaze stayed on a plain zither for a long time, then turned back to the second-tier zithers, apparently intending to pick one to take away.

"Boss, we want that one." Hong Xiaoduo pointed at the zither that Feiyan had given up.

Feiyan was startled, and hurried to her side and whispered, "I just asked, that one costs three hundred and twenty taels, it's too expensive."

Hong Xiaoduo smiled when he heard this: "Don't worry about it, just consider it as my New Year's gift to you." After that, he looked at the shopkeeper and said: "Shopkeeper, we really want it. If you really want to sell it, please give us a fair price."

The shopkeeper also understood music. He knew from listening to Feiyan trying out the zither that she played very well. In addition, all the customers, big and small, found the zither pleasing to the eye, so he said immediately, "Well, if the two young ladies really want the zither, I will give you the lowest price, two hundred and eighty taels. Please don't bargain with me anymore."

"Okay, we'll follow the price offered by the shopkeeper, but you have to give us a pair of good zither nails, as well as this zither stand and spare strings." Hong Xiaoduo put forward the conditions without any embarrassment.

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Give it away, give it away, give it away, you must give it away! Not only these, but also embroidered piano covers and moisturizing cream, everything."

Hong Xiaoduo asked again if there were any new ones and said she didn't want this sample. The shopkeeper said that even if you didn't ask, I would have gone to get it.

There were only two of that plain-surfaced guzheng. When I bought it, I was thinking that it might not sell well in a small town like this, but the music store couldn't be without good ones.

Feiyan looked at the shopkeeper and the clerk excitedly, and carefully brought out a zither wrapped in cotton cloth from the inner room. After unpacking it, Feiyan put on the zither pegs herself and tried to play it and simply tuned it.

"Do you two like it too and want Sister Feiyan to teach you?" Looking at Yuheng and Yaoguang's envious looks, Hong Xiaoduo asked with a smile.

The two young girls nodded at the same time: "Mother, when you find someone selling old zithers, just buy us a cheap one. We can use one together." Yuheng said in a low voice.

"I have cheap ones here, too. They only cost 16 taels of silver. If you want them, I'll charge you 15 taels. In fact, the lower the price, the less profit. I don't need to cheat you." The shopkeeper heard this and said hurriedly...
