The splendid pastoral of the fierce scholar

Chapter 58 Shopping
After getting excited, Chen Yiyi looked at the shop owner and motioned him to lower his head and stretch out his ears.

The store owner leaned down suspiciously and stretched out his ears.

"Boss, there is more than one method for this pig's large intestine. You can also make boiled and marinated ones. And when customers come, you will provide soup and pickles for free. If customers get cheap, you can attract more customers. , when the time comes, we will guarantee you a lot of money."

Hearing Chen Yiyi's words, the shop owner couldn't help nodding his head. It made sense. Other shops didn't have it, so he used these little sweets to attract customers. That's not bad.

Little girl, you are very nice, you know you cheated a good person like me, please make it up to me.

After Chen Yiyi finished speaking, the shop owner straightened up and praised Chen Yiyi with a smile.

"Haha, little girl, thank you very much, this is a smart kid."

Chen Yiyi was also happy to hear the praise, and said to the shop owner with a smile: "Then you can give me a small reward, I wish you a prosperous business, and it will get better every day."

As she said that, Chen Yiyi arched her hands towards the shop owner, which is a standard action to ask for red envelopes during the Chinese New Year.

Shopkeeper: ","

Well, little girl, I wronged you!
In the end, Chen Yiyi smiled and held the 100 taels of silver bills, and waved goodbye to Chen Yujie and the shop owner with a heavy purse. In the end, Chen Yiyi also told the shop owner to keep what happened today a secret.

On the way, Chen Yiyi immediately put the banknotes into her clothes. She knew very well that the thieves were highly skilled, and she couldn't let them see that she was rich.

But he couldn't hide the joy on his face, Chen Yujie looked at Chen Yiyi who was intoxicated in the joy of making money just now, and also smirked.

Ordinary parents must ask Chen Yiyi to keep the money for him now, but Chen Yujie has never thought about it until now. In his opinion, this money was originally earned by his daughter, so it is naturally his daughter's money. stand up.

Chen Yiyi was already prepared. If Chen Yujie asked her for it, she would fool him and resolutely not give him the money.

But until now, Chen Yujie hadn't taken the initiative to bring up this matter. After thinking about it, Chen Yiyi felt that it was still necessary for him to talk about it.

"Father, the two of us earned the 100 taels just now. This 100 taels is quite a lot. When others find out, they have to worry about it. Don't tell anyone about the two of us. Just put the 100 taels here and save them for urgent use." Just take it!"

"Okay, I'll listen to you, but you have to keep it safe."

"Sure! I'll find a place to hide when I get home, it's absolutely safe!" Chen Yiyi replied, patting her chest.

After this, the sun slanted down.

Seeing the sun, Chen Yujie and Chen Yiyi decided to go to Zhenkou to wait for the ox-drawn cart now, and it would be dark in the evening.

The two walked towards the entrance of the town together, and along the way they saw fresh gadgets. Chen Yiyi, who had money in his hand, felt itchy in his heart. After discussing it, Chen Yujie decided to use the small money in his purse to buy some things back home.

Chen Yiyi was in Chen's house for the past few days, and the most distressing thing was combing her hair. The original owner had poor nutrition before, her hair was yellow and dry, and she stuttered every morning when she brushed her hair. Chen Yiyi felt so painful every time she combed her hair.

So Chen Yiyi bought a small crescent-shaped log comb from a peddler for three pennies, but the patterns on it are very beautiful, especially the peach blossom at the end of the comb, which is so vividly carved that it is worth three pennies money.

Chen Yujie didn't want anything, but Chen Yiyi saw that Chen Yujie usually read books at night, so he bought a box of peppermint oil for him. The ancient peppermint oil is pure natural and has no additives. It can both refresh and relax the nerves. Days are good.

When Chen Yiyi stuffed the box of peppermint oil into Chen Yujie's hand, Chen Yujie changed his smirk from before, and suddenly seemed very moved.

Chen Yiyi looked at it and sighed, alas, people who lack love, just such a small thing can still be moved.

Only Chen Yujie knew that when Chen Yiyi was born, he was sick for many times and suffered a lot of crimes. Before that, he seemed not to be close to his father. Smaller than a rabbit.

Seeing Chen Yiyi haggling with the shop owner like a little adult today, Chen Yujie couldn't be more proud.

She thought that she had always owed this child, and now she still remembered herself and knew how to buy things for herself.

Chen Yujie was moved, so moved!
Chen Yiyi ignored it, and picked out what to buy as she walked. By the way, buy some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, which Wang has always liked.

Well, there is also Mr. Chen, who likes to drink, and give him two catties of liquor.

Mrs. Deng, after all, she is in charge of the family, so she still needs to please her. Seeing that she likes to hang out and chat so much, then buy her a few catties of melon seeds, let her carry a purse every day, and cough a few when she is free. pieces.

There are other people in the family. After thinking about it, Chen Yiyi decided to just buy a little rock candy to go home, and the children can eat it together.

Chen Yiyi didn't want to spend money on other people, especially the uncle and Mrs. Jiang, it was disgusting to think about it. People like that, one is selfish and shameless, the other is similar, the difference is just to save some face.

Looking at her purse, Chen Yiyi reckoned that there should be one or two hundred Wen, which is almost enough to spend.

Combs cost three pennies, mint oil two pennies, and wine is more expensive. In ancient times, baijiu was made from grain, and it cost thirty cents a catty. Chen Yiyi bought two catties, and her heart was bleeding.

Chen Yiyi bought Wang's sweet-scented osmanthus cake for a catty and a half, ten cents.Chen Yiyi bought this sweet-scented osmanthus cake from an old shop with Chen Yujie, and Chen Yiyi even thought it smelled delicious.

When the melon seeds for books arrived, they were cheap, only two cents a catty, so Chen Yiyi bought five catties in one go.

There will be no rock sugar at that time, only maltose. Chen Yiyi then remembered that there was no sugar cane in ancient times, and there was no technology for refining high-concentration sugar. No wonder there was no rock sugar.

White sugar, a fine sugar, is only eaten by the wealthy upper class, and it is not sold in Xiaofeng Town.

Chen Yiyi could only buy maltose, but it was still quite expensive, ten cents a catty, almost as good as meat, not as good as white wine, so in the end she only bought one and a half catties.

After doing some calculations, it was exactly [-] Wen, which was within Chen Yiyi's estimate.
