Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 823 Jade shop (3)
"My cousin?"

Qingli was also taken aback, now is the busy farming season, the cousin shouldn't have time, and even rushed to Pingyang at night to find someone, could it be something happened in Mojia Village?She was frowning and thinking, the carriage had passed through the hanging flower gate and entered the backyard.

"Little sister, I'm here!"

Mo Qingju didn't get out of the carriage in a hurry, she opened the window, poked her head out and waved to Qingli, her face was rosy, with a smile on her face, she didn't look like something happened, Qingli was relieved.

"Cousin, did you drive at night?"

Fengyang and Pingyang belong to places of bitter cold, and the public security is not good on weekdays. You must be more cautious when walking at night. A while ago, a group of bandits and slashers were killed, but the nearby hills are not only the kings Partner.

"Yeah, I set off in the dark yesterday and slept all night in the carriage."

Mo Qingju lifted the curtain of the car. There was no servant girl beside her. Mai Ya ran forward quickly, helped Mo Qingju get off the carriage, and said worriedly, "Miss Ju, why don't you get up early so that you can reach Pingyang when it gets dark? Catch the night."

"It's okay, I came with my cousin and husband this time, and I'll be safe with the escort team."

Mo Qingju raised her eyes to look at the big sun. It was still cold in the carriage in the morning, but now she felt hot again. She fanned it with her hands, "Little sister, I haven't eaten breakfast yet. The people in the escort agency said that there are people on the official road. Those who sell refreshments are not here today."

"Then hurry up and enter the house, there are still hot porridge, side dishes and shortbread."

Qingli dragged her cousin, Mo Qingju, into the side hall, then motioned for the malt to pour tea, and hurriedly asked, "Cousin, why are you here, but something happened at home?"

"It's true, it's still a good thing!"

Mo Qingju covered her mouth with her hands, and said with a chuckle, "Little sister, you must not know that the melons my father planted are all ripe! They are very big, and you can pick a few and fill a basket full of them." ! And it’s sweeter than honey! No, my father can’t sit still, so let me come over to you and discuss how to sell it.”

"Ready? So fast!"

Qingli was also very surprised, she has been in Pingyang recently, she didn't go back, and no one came to deliver the letter, she didn't expect those melons to be so precocious, big and productive.In this season in the Northland, there is no trace of melons. Most of the fruits transported from the south are rotten. Due to the war, there are not many merchants transporting them to the Northland. In this way, my family can be the only one, and it will be August [-]th soon. Fifth, the melon can be used as a gimmick to make a lot of money!
Mo Qingju took a bite of the shortbread, took another spoonful of porridge, and nodded.Once in August, the melon looks different every day. Before going to bed every day, she would go to the melon patch in the backyard to have a look, and when she went again in the morning, she found that it had grown a lot.

There are a few melons that ripen early, and they are already ripe on the fifth day of August. I cut a few and put them in the well water. They are very sweet. The second sister-in-law who is pregnant likes it the most. Not as stingy as before, and no longer control the family members.

"It's rare that uncle is generous."

Qingli pursed her lips, thinking about how to sell the melon.In this kind of weather, the cost of going to and from the city is too high. Besides, with the little production of her own, it can be solved in Fengyang and Pingyang. She wants to contact a middleman to see how much the price is worth.

The Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th is a big festival, and the people of Dazhou attach great importance to it.If it is sold by weight alone, there is no way to make fruit baskets to make money. At that time, tie a beautiful knot with a ribbon and add some seasonal fruits in the space, and it will surely sell for a good price.

"Little sister, you still have an idea! My father has such a brain, he still wants to transport it to the market!"

Mo Qingju gave Qingli a thumbs up. The price of the same thing after packaging is very different. Take needles and threads as an example. , Miss who specializes in selling big families, the price has turned up to two taels of silver.

The two sisters sat together, and Mo Qingju talked about the situation in Mojia Village. Now it is the busy farming season, and every family has been busy in the field until late.The patriarch invited a gentleman to learn to read for an hour every night when it was dark, and he would also talk about some farming skills, and everyone exchanged experiences with each other.

The school is running well, and when they return home, the children become the masters of the adults. Seeing that their parents are too slow in learning to read, they often laugh at them. She also used tree branches to write calculations on the land, and sometimes the tribe would ask her some rare words when they saw her.

The patriarch often called everyone to a meeting to talk about land reclamation. At first, the clan couldn't make a turn, and when they returned home, they calculated whether they had suffered a loss.During the meeting, the patriarch scolded the clansmen severely. Whether it was building roads or running a school, Qingli's family paid for it.

After everyone figured it out, they expressed their support for the patriarch's approach.There are people with other surnames in Mojia Village, and some of them also bought land. The clan plans to use a large price to reclaim it as clan land, and then buy a piece of fertile land in the outskirts of Fengyang, and use a few small shops as clan property.

"It's good that everyone can figure it out, it doesn't matter if our family pays a little more money."

Qingli is not short of that little money, as long as the tribe has potential and can be a helper, it should be given a little bit, they are all relatives who break the bones and connect the tendons.This is also her father's wish, and she has no idea about it.

"Miss, are you still going out?"

Mai Ya stood aside and asked hesitantly. She and the young lady had just left when Miss Ju arrived at the small courtyard. Now they were chatting together, and there was no sign of going out at all. She looked back at the baggage placed in the side hall. It was the clothes, shoes and socks she made for Brother Huzi after staying up late for a few days.

"I don't know your little thoughts, you will go out in a while."

Qingli took a look at Mai Ya, took her cousin's hand, and looked at her attire. She was wearing a pale yellow daisy dress. The cousin was fourteen this year, and she had the demeanor of a girl. The daughter of the Mo family , except for her, are all slender eyebrows, very delicate.

"Oh, little girl, I want to stay in Pingyang for two days this time. You bought a new house, so I shouldn't bother you when I live there?"

Mo Qingju blinked, she knew that this was Chunyu's small courtyard, it was inconvenient, although the major general loved her little sister, but that person always had no expression on his face, she looked a little scared, He Zi Like my cousin, it's hard to get close to.

"Don't bother me, cousin, you came just in time. I want to open a jade shop in Pingyang recently, let's go out and have a look."

Qingli pulled her cousin, looking at the store is one aspect, and she also needs help from middlemen for melon matters. She is not deeply rooted in Pingyang, and she seldom cooperates with rich families. more simple.

The two got into the carriage and rushed to the most luxurious area in Pingyang City.I don't know what's going on today. The girls and daughters-in-law who don't usually go out are all dressed up and talking and laughing in small groups. Could it be that there is some kind of wedding ceremony?
