Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 198 New Years
The emergence of supermarkets has greatly enriched the lives of citizens.For several days in a row, the supermarket was overcrowded, and Huimin Supermarket, just like its name, truly benefited the people.

With ultra-low prices and outstanding quality, it has become famous in Changzhou City only three days after its opening.And seeing that the supermarket is so popular, those with a flexible mind also come to chat with each other, wanting to become a supplier.

Zuo Fu didn't refuse either, she needed everyone to make the market bigger together, not just one family.

Although suppliers in the Ming Dynasty could not provide such things as hardware and shampoo, they also had things that are not available in modern times.Such as handicrafts, pure natural rouge powder and green natural vegetables, meat and so on.

Grass eggs and foreign eggs are also priced at two prices in the market in later generations, so it is not a problem to sell these things in supermarkets.

Making a fortune requires everyone to get rich together, so that money can generate money, otherwise how can we invigorate the economy?

The citizens of Changzhou have been immersed in happiness these days.They have never seen so many products in their lives, and even if they don't buy them, they are satisfied just looking at them.

But this happiness was soon interrupted by the arrival of New Year's Eve.

The New Year's Day was the most important festival in ancient times, and Zuo Fu didn't want to spoil the atmosphere. He made a wave of publicity a year ago, and after finishing the New Year's Day rewards, he closed down on the afternoon of the New Year's Eve.

It's the Chinese New Year, and people who have been busy for a year should also take a good rest.Usually, for the sake of making a living, I dare not take a rest even if I want to, but in the middle of the year, there is no reason to be harsh on myself. Moreover, even if I don’t want to rest, there is no work to do!

At this time, the yamen was officially on holiday, and everyone went home, except Zuo Fu.

When you become an official in a local area, you must be mentally prepared for this. You can't go home even during the New Year. You can only let your family come. Every three years, you can leave the local area to go to the capital to report work and participate in the assessment.

A few days ago, Zuo Fu received a letter from his mother and a lot of pickled products.

Nanjing people like pickled products, sausages, bacon dates, and salted salted duck are all essential Chinese New Year flavors.Liu Runiang makes these things with her own hands every year. Now that her daughter is not around and her husband is at the front line, the family can't leave at all.

In desperation, they had to ask someone to bring some homemade cured meat to Zuo Dayou and Zuo Fu respectively.

The year without family members seems a bit lonely.In his previous life, after leaving the orphanage, Zuo Fu spent the Chinese New Year alone every year.At that time, she also felt lonely, and she also cried secretly when looking at the fire trees and silver flowers outside the window, but because of her age, she accepted the fact that she had no father, mother, or relatives, so she didn't feel too sad.

But now...

Listening to the sound of firecrackers outside, she felt extremely lonely and sad.

It won't hurt if you don't have it.All the heartache is just after having it, and then I feel sore.

After experiencing the love of his parents and the joy of family reunion, Zuo Fu felt that he had become weaker.

I don't know what my father is doing now?Are you drinking with the sergeants?I don't know what my mother is doing?Will you think of yourself when you celebrate the New Year with your grandparents?
Changzhou cured wine with Jiangsihuamei is warmed on a small stove, and the big bone soup in the hot pot exudes an attractive aroma.

Zuo Fu took a sip of the wine lightly, remained silent for a long time, and then let out a sigh.

"Every festive season, I miss my relatives a lot, and the ancients never deceived me."

"Is the eldest girl homesick?"

Chunya's eyes were also red.She grew up in Zuo's family, and without her family, she has long regarded Zuo's family as her home.

Although Liu Runiang is aggressive, she is not mean-spirited.The master was born in hardship and has no airs. In this family, these servants who were sold since they were young really didn't feel any malice, but only a warmth that they had never experienced before.

Leaving home at this moment, I didn't feel it when I was busy before, but when it's New Year's Eve, seeing everyone go back to celebrate the New Year, thinking about the people at home makes me feel sad.

"Ah."

Zuo Fu responded, and said: "You all sit down too, we all grew up together, there is no need to make such a distinction."

"This won't work, you can't lose your dignity."

Chunya sniffled, trying to hold back tears, but she still cried after holding back for a while.

"Big girl, when can we go back?"

Zoff fell silent.After a long time, he said: "If Daddy can repel the Qing army tomorrow, we can go back."

"In another two years, we can go back."

Another maidservant, Ou He, sniffled and said, "Now that the saint is in Nanjing, he can go home and have a look after returning to Nanjing to report on his duties."

"Why are you crying?"

Nanny Yang, who was sent by Liu Runiang to take care of Zuo Fu's daily affairs, scolded, "Why are you crying for the New Year's Eve?! This is to find bad luck for the girl?!"

As he said that, he blessed the body, and said: "Miss, don't be sad, we are separating now so that the family can live in peace in the future. You are a fairy descended from the earth, and you are here to save the world..."

Zuo Fu supported his forehead, the sadness in his heart was calmed down by Nanny Yang.

I don't know if it's because the cheap mother's brainwashing skills are too strong, or this nanny is easy to be hinted... In short, after coming to her side, she firmly believes that she is a fairy.

And also set a set of rules for the servants: Whatever the big girl says is right; the big girl is not allowed to ask about things, because the gods always have a reason; no matter what you see, you must pretend that you didn’t see it, otherwise you will leak the secret...

There are many other rules like this, looking at the enthusiasm in Mammy Yang's eyes from time to time, Zuo Fu felt guilty.

This grandma looked at...

It looks like it's going to extremes!
But at this time, such a person is really needed to interrupt, otherwise everyone will fall into negative emotions.

When Nanny Yang said this, everyone regained their composure.Zuo Fu chuckled, and said: "Mama is right. Well, if you don't want to drink with me, go down. I just want to drink alone."

"Yes!"

Nanny Yang always respected Zuo Fu's words and never compromised them. She waved her hand and led a group of servants down.

After the people left, Zuo Fu took out a tablet.

In ancient times, all aspects were backward. Since you can't get together with your family, you should simply learn.

She was originally a biology student, focusing on physiology. Seeing that ancient medicine was backward, she wanted to study medicine by herself.

This is actually not very difficult for her, after all, many things in physiology are interlinked with medicine.

And she learned this to lay the foundation one step at a time.These days, she looked through the county annals of Changzhou, and read that when Meng Yuan attacked Changzhou, because he could not attack for a long time, Meng Yuan once threw plague-laden corpses into the city, which reminded her of smallpox.

Smallpox, she had been vaccinated in her previous life, but people younger than her had never been vaccinated again.Thinking that smallpox is still rampant all over the world these days, I feel shuddering.If the Qing army also used the same method as Meng Yuan to deal with the Ming army, it would really be a disaster!

So she has to study hard to see how to carry out smallpox prevention and control activities in ancient times...
