Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 1178
"Price reduction?"

Butler Feng was taken aback, almost thinking that he had heard wrongly. The young lady wanted to lower the price because others raised the price. Was she trying to force other shops in Pingyang to return to the original price?This may be the best way to use at present, but I will suffer a little bit.

It was already noon, and the sun was scorching hot. Qingli entered the side hall, and Nanny Yu brought hot water to help her wash up. Then she changed into homely dresses, which were simple and elegant without complicated patterns.

Her mother-in-law Wen came back in the afternoon, and Qingli decided to make a few home-cooked dishes for Wen before she left. Wen's preference is light. In this weather, it is good to make a lily and white fungus soup, which can nourish the lungs and nourish.

Qingli heard from Xiancao and Pomegranate that Wen has been taking medicines on time recently, and he is not coughing up blood for the time being. Only the weather was too hot a while ago, and sometimes he would wake up at night, feeling out of breath, but the rest of the time was fine. After taking the medicine, The appetite is wide open, and the sleep is much sweeter.

It seems that those medicinal materials are still effective, not to mention completely cured, but also able to control the development of the disease, at least not so painful. Wen Shi used to cough up blood, and really wanted to cough up his lungs.

The windows in the kitchen are bright and clean, and there are dedicated people who have to clean them several times a day. Those oily smoke stains must be cleaned with a special iron brush. careless.

When the cooks in the kitchen saw Qingli, they all withdrew. The young lady didn't like to be disturbed when she was cooking, and she didn't even need to help Yumao and Mai Ya. have tea.

This is a quirk of Qingli, people in the house think that the young lady may have some tricks, and they don't want others to learn it, they can understand.

Qingli doesn't have any tricks, it's just that it's not convenient for someone to be around.Just like now, she throws the chicken killed in the kitchen into the space, and then takes another one out of the space, and puts ginseng, glutinous rice, peanuts, yams, wolfberries, chestnuts, jujubes, etc. in the stomach. There are food and medicinal materials, This kind of soup is most suitable for drinking in this season. It can clear away heat and detoxify, nourish blood and relieve cough, and has the effects of calming the nerves and beautifying.

After getting ready, Qingli threw a few sticks of firewood into the earthen stove, intending to simmer slowly, and let the cook prepare a few light and delicious vegetarian dishes to go with it.

In the afternoon, Qingli took Nanny Yu and Mai Ya to the second gate of the mansion. There was a new lady at the second gate. The whole family was working in the mansion. They spoke humorously and often talked about the customs of Daqin Sishui City. .

The mother-in-law's man used to be a peddler, but was later killed by a bandit. She took a few children and was lonely, so she had no choice but to sell herself as a servant.In the past, her men often went to Lishui City to sell goods, so they knew a lot about it.

"My old man, I have a bad impression of the Daqin barbarians, but Lishui City is a good place."

The people there live a prosperous life, and almost every household is doing business. The war between the two countries has already affected the lives of the people in Lishui City. They resent the war, yearn for peace, and are extremely dissatisfied with the brutal rule.

"I heard that the fur is the best over there, but it's a pity that the city gate is closed now, so we can't get the goods out."

Mammy Yu sighed. The rabbit skin she bought in Surabaya City was bright in color and average in appearance. At that time, the businessman also lamented that Lishui City had been closed for a long time, and Yu Wenkun was still in Surabaya City at that time. Woolen cloth.

"Of course there is a way."

The woman at the door pondered for a moment, and told Qingli a place for private transactions.Because the gates of Lishui City are often closed, which greatly affects the business of private merchants. Sometimes the city gates are only opened once a week, and they cannot get out after entering. secretly.

"There is another way."

Nanny Yu made a fuss and was very surprised, without Qingli's guidance, she hurriedly asked, "Doesn't that mean we can enter Lishui City?"

"It was all a few years ago. I don't know if this secret passage still exists."

The mother-in-law shook her head. These are all what her man said back then. Sometimes Lishui City closed the city gate, and her man would not delay her life. She must have taken this secret road. The entrance of the tunnel seems to be a noodle shop, or a noodle shop There are connectors here, called "Sanhe Noodle House".

The problem is, this is the place where Lishui City came back from. She doesn't know how to get there from Sishui City, and now the city gate is closed, so she can't get in.

Qingli had this clue in mind, and she might go to investigate when she came back. If she could find the exit of Sishui City, she would send people to closely monitor it in the future to prevent someone from using the secret passage to make a fuss.

When it was afternoon, the heat had subsided a little. Qingli was sitting on a small pier at the second gate, waiting for Wen's carriage to return from Yuta Temple. She was thinking about going to Lishui City, how to get close to General Xue .

Knowing a person's weakness can only rely on contact. The problem now is that General Xue is in the camp and she can't get in. Is it possible to dress up as a soldier?
She had a lot of ideas before, but they were overthrown by Qingli one by one. She didn't want to use those tricks unless she had to. If the other party was a shameless villain like Yu Wenkun, she would definitely not have any pressure, but the other party was an upright person. It is very wrong to point it out. If you compare your heart with your heart, you always feel sorry for your conscience.

The time Chunyu Yan gave her was very short, only five days. In fact, she never thought that she could find the weakness of the other party in five days. He wanted her to go to Lishui City for a walk, right?But Qingli was struggling in her heart, if this could be done, how many lovely soldiers would be sacrificed, she had to work hard, otherwise she would not be reconciled.

Outside the second door, there was the sound of carriages and horses, Qingli stretched her legs and stood up, Wen's carriage just passed through the Chuhua Gate, the carriage stopped, and the two maids, Xiancao and Pomegranate, jumped out of the carriage first .

"Young lady, have you been waiting here?"

Shiliu looked surprised, her eyes rolled round and round, the weather is quite hot now, judging by the young lady's appearance, she must have been sitting for a while.

"Just waited for a while."

Qingli nodded, with a faint smile on her face, she took two steps forward, stood at the carriage compartment, opened the curtain, stretched out her arms, and carefully helped Wenshi get out of the carriage.

"Xiao Li, are you in a hurry? There are too many people queuing up to buy food on the road, and the carriage won't be able to pass for a while."

Wen Shi tapped the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief. The coachman opened the way ahead, and the common people formed a human wall. The people were crowded, but they didn’t give way. The food is good to go home and cook.

Qingli just issued the order to reduce the price of the grain store, and it hasn't spread in a short time. The common people don't know that if it spreads out tomorrow, people will regret buying grain at a high price today.
