The jade pendant connects the past and present; the exiled crown prince's wife takes her entire

Having seen the door twice, only to have it suddenly disappear, Jiang Jinning had a vague feeling that she seemed to have established an inseparable connection with this world.

She was overjoyed, and the fear of being mistaken for a monster seemed to slowly disappear.

When she arrived at the entrance of Flea Street, Liang Cheng was already waiting for her by the stone pillar.

"Sister Liang."

"Jin Ning, you're here?" Liang Cheng crossed her arms and looked her over, her eyes smiling. "Yes, you look much better than when I first saw you. This Hanfu you're wearing is nice; it looks better than those thin synthetic fabrics."

Jiang Jinning, feeling a little embarrassed by the compliment, tugged at her dress.

The most obvious advantage of having a good relationship with the guards is in terms of clothing and food. In the past, even though they had two sets of clothes to change into, they were not allowed to wear them and could only wear prison uniforms. Now it's different. They can wear new clothes made of cotton and cloth shoes. So when they came here, their souls were also wearing new clothes and shoes.

As for complexion, if you eat well and live comfortably, your complexion will naturally be good.

"Did you bring your ID card? The administrator will need a copy of your ID card later."

This left Jiang Jinning completely baffled.

An ID card should be a household registration identity that ordinary people in the Great Li Dynasty have. As for their Duke's Mansion, although they were exiled and should have been criminals, they are now considered commoners because of the Empress's remonstrance.

But she's not from this world, so where would she get her household registration?

The slight joy Jiang Jinning had felt earlier vanished completely, and her face turned pale.

"I...I don't have that ID card..."

Liang Cheng quickly realized that if she really had an ID card, how could the government not provide subsidies? She was probably an unregistered resident.

"It's okay if you don't have an ID card. Here's what we'll do: I'll register you using my ID card first. With my guarantee, the manager will most likely agree to rent the stall to you. But you still need to get an ID card; you'll need it for everyday outings."

Need to get an ID card?

Even if she doesn't belong to this world, can she still get an ID card?

"It's easy to get an ID card. She'll ask you some basic information and where you're from. Just answer truthfully. By the way, you can get your ID card during the day, on a weekday."

Jiang Jinning has been here many times and knows what weekdays mean, but she needs to travel during the day and her family has to cover her if she wants to come here.

"Okay, I'll take care of it when I have time."

The two chatted along the way and soon arrived at the street office of Flea Street.

The office was lit up, and there was only one person inside, a man who looked to be around fifty years old.

"Uncle Wang, I've brought my friend."

Jiang Jinning greeted Liang Cheng, and she was no longer as nervous about meeting strangers as she used to be.

She forced a smile and sweetly called out, "Uncle Wang."

Manager Wang looked Jiang Jinning up and down, then nodded in response.

He poured two glasses of water for the two of them, and then casually asked Jiang Jinning a few questions.

"Let me make this clear in advance: this stall can only be rented out by the day for now, and the daily rent is still fifty yuan. If there are no other problems after a month, we can sign a lease contract and rent it out monthly."

On the way here, Jiang Jinning had already heard Liang Cheng tell her about the stall. She said that the previous stall owner was a difficult and unreasonable person who had caused trouble many times in order to rent the stall for free. Now the street management was probably afraid of encountering such a strange person again, so they could only rent it out by the day at the beginning.

However, Liang Cheng also said that if nothing else happens this month, the extra rental difference can be refunded after the contract is signed, so it's not a loss.

"Okay, I agree."

"Then let me register. Give me your ID card."

When the topic of ID cards came up, Liang Cheng quickly pulled out hers to smooth things over: "Just use mine for registration, that way Uncle Wang will feel more at ease. If anything happens, he can come find me!"

Manager Wang pondered for a moment: "It's okay now, but you should still use your own contracts when signing contracts in the future, so be careful."

"Okay, thank you very much, Uncle Wang. We know you like the rolled pancakes and flower tea from East Street, so my sister and I bought some for you before we came."

"You're such a worry-free little girl, unlike those people who are always causing me trouble. Your uncle trusts you, and the child you brought will surely be honest and well-behaved."

When the two came out of the neighborhood office, the large clock on the street had just indicated seven o'clock.

"Manager Wang is more tactful than the other manager. I've dealt with him a few times before, and he usually gives me face. If you do your job well, he won't make things difficult for you."

"Sister Liang, thank you so much. I don't know what I would have done without you."

Liang Cheng was the person who helped her the most in the world, and Jiang Jinning was very grateful. She remembered the small package she had brought on the way here and quickly took it out.

"My mother, sister, and I made this dress together, and my mother embroidered this handkerchief. I hope you won't find it offensive."

Before coming, the mother and her children discussed for a long time how to thank Liang Cheng, but Liang Cheng herself didn't lack good things, so giving her something else wouldn't be thoughtful enough.

So, during their break, the three of them embroidered a handkerchief, using scraps of cotton fabric that came with the previous purchase as the base. They also made a dress, which was the most fashionable style in Dali at the moment. In local parlance, it was somewhat similar to Tang Dynasty Hanfu, but not quite.

"Wow, did you make this? Such exquisite Hanfu! Wait, is this Song Dynasty Hanfu? Tang Dynasty? It doesn't seem like it. Anyway, it's so beautiful! I've never seen anything like it before!" Liang Cheng held the garment up to herself, very excited. "This is a handkerchief! My goodness, this is hand-embroidered! This is so much more luxurious than that decorative piece at home. Your mother could make a fortune anywhere with this skill!"

Jiang Jinning had previously noticed the embroidery on the clothes of a customer and assumed that everyone in the world knew how to embroider. So, it turns out that not everyone can do embroidery?

"Oh dear, most embroidery is machine-made, and manual labor is so expensive. Look closely and compare them; this hand-embroidered piece is so lifelike! I got a great deal! You can sell these embroidered items at your stall too; even a small handkerchief would be in high demand!"

Liang Cheng's words greatly appealed to Jiang Jinning. After thinking about it, she felt that it was feasible and decided to discuss it with Zhao Shi when she got back.

"Don't you have a cell phone? Why don't you buy a cheap second-hand one? I have a secondary SIM card that I don't usually use, so you can use mine for now. It'll be easier for us to stay in touch. You can contact me on WeChat if you need anything. There's a cell phone store up ahead."

A cell phone is like that shiny brick; you can use it to pay and make calls.

But I don't know if it's expensive or not.

Jiang Jinning followed Liang Cheng to the mobile phone store, where a wide variety of mobile phones were on display, the cheapest of which cost only one or two hundred yuan, which she could easily afford now.

Jiang Jinning didn't hesitate and bought a second-hand phone for 150 yuan. Liang Cheng installed the SIM card for her, downloaded WeChat for her, added her number, and taught her how to contact her.

After buying the phone, Liang Cheng still had to go set up her stall. Jiang Jinning said goodbye to her and prepared to buy some more materials for making flower wrappings.
