Crossing Over I Became a Married Peasant Woman

The latest website: "Put one or two winter clothes on. I heard about a plum banquet when I went to the yamen today. The palace will hold it every year, and there is also a flower festival in spring. Appreciating plum banquets should be plum blossoms in winter. It's not a big mistake to prepare, I'll find someone to ask tomorrow."

"Okay, you'll find out tomorrow. If it's true, I'll be ready. I even took two brocades to exchange for money today."

Zhou Cheng raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Don't sell the rest, keep it for the whole family to make one or two clothes. Otherwise, if you sell it, if there is a feast, you have to go out and buy it again. I'll get three months' worth of it right away. The salary is also a considerable sum.”

"Mainly, these fabrics are too gorgeous. I'm afraid that we won't be able to use them for a while, and I'm worried that they will not be stored properly, and the loss will be great."

Seeing his disapproval, that's fine.

"Then I'll keep the rest. I'll see what I can do in a few days, and buy a couple of clothes for you and a few children."

"If you have a suitable one, use it to make clothes. If you don't have a suitable one, put it away first. If there is any human relationship, you can also give it away."

She nodded.

Zhou Cheng thought for a while, "Qiu Baize's wedding date is approaching, we have to prepare a gift."

"I remember this. Just pick the good ones from the ones sent by the palace before. I have already prepared them. When the children are about to eat, remind them and ask them to prepare a copy. Master Qiu is right. They are so good, and they should also talk about their hearts."

He nodded with satisfaction, several children should prepare one for each.

As soon as he mentioned this, Pei Xiu wanted to ask him when he would take a break, when would he receive his salary, or should he receive it on his own or his family's behalf?

"We have a ten-day break, every ten days. I haven't taken office on the first break day, and on the second break day, I was summoned by the prince to go to the camp. At the end of this month, we can take a break normally. You can stop by then. Receive monthly salary. You can get it yourself or your family can bring a voucher to get it. Lumi and cloth will be tied for half a year, and this will wait until the end of the year."

She figured it was only three months before the Chinese New Year, and the palace would also give out another New Year's gift, so that she would be able to have a good New Year with a little more money.

If you are not home, you don’t know about firewood, rice, oil, and salt. There are still so many people in the family to support.

He added: "I want to wait for a couple of days to take a break to get my salary before going to buy a horse. I often go to the big camp.

It is not convenient to borrow horses from the yamen recently. "

He had mentioned it on the first day of Shangya, and Pei Xiu had no problem with it. No general was without a horse. It's a pity that the little black and white in the family are still young, only two years old, and now they can only take turns to send out to set up carriages.

"Then you go to the middle man when you take a break and see if there are any houses, fields or shops for sale. I have been thinking about it for a long time."

"I know, I remember, don't worry. Let's set the meal, the child will let Mrs. Li watch it for a while."

"Um."

Zhou Cheng felt that if she didn't finish her affairs sooner, she would not be able to sleep well.

So when it came to the holiday, he went out early to collect his monthly salary as usual.

Pei Xiu has been waiting at home. Sister Li has been busy making clothes and quilts these days. She takes care of the child by herself, and she doesn't feel that time passes too slowly.

Hugs, feeds, and diapers. She practiced calligraphy while she was sleeping, took a nap, and woke up in the middle of the afternoon.

She didn't need to remind her at that point, and Sister Jiang took Niuniu to cook. It's been like this recently, and Sister Jiang is used to it, and she can also teach Niu Niu how to stitch while making clothes.

Seeing Niuniu's well-behaved appearance, Pei Xiu thought that after her wheat would be gone, she could transfer Niuniu to play with her and grow up with the master and servant. The relationship would be better and more loyal.

Thinking wildly, Zhou Chengcheng came back.

"Why don't you sit at the door and don't enter the house?"

She looked at him and smiled, "Wait for you."

He curled the corner of his mouth, "Come in, I have something to tell you."

"Well, speak quietly, the child just fell asleep."

"I went to Yaxing to ask the middleman. The cheapest one in Dong'an City is at least 500 taels. We can't afford it, so don't think about it. There are some shabby ones. Silver, not worth it."

She didn't even think about buying a house at first, she just asked by the way.

"What about the pavement and the field?"

"It's not for us to buy a shop with a good location. There are more secluded ones, and the price is acceptable, about two or three hundred taels. If the area is larger, it may be a little more expensive. We can think about it, if we buy it, we plan to rent it. , or do you plan to run your own business?"

He poured a glass of water and continued: "I followed the middleman for a lap, from the house to the pavement to the fields. There are no whole fields for sale outside the city, only scattered pieces in the east and west. 221 mu, 921 mu of medium-sized land, and 621 mu of low-grade land. It is more expensive than our hometown, and they are all just released for sale. If you want to buy it, you should start quickly, and it will be gone too late. The land outside the city is very expensive. A hit."

She thought about it for a while. She didn't know what to do with the shop, and there was no manpower. "If you rent it, how much is the annual rent? There are fields, are they scattered far away?"

"If you want to rent, it depends on the size of the store, ranging from a few taels to a dozen taels a year. I went to see three stores today, and one is relatively large, equivalent to three rooms, and the asking price is high, so we don't consider it. A medium pavement is three hundred taels, and a smaller one is two hundred and forty taels."

She suddenly thought to a point, "Can we buy a small shop to sell silver needle vegetables? Although we sold the recipe to Zuixianglou before, it was specially stated that we could sell the spot, but we couldn't sell it in Canghe County. ."

"That's okay. Silver needle dishes are only available in Zuixiang Lou in various cities. Their recipes are tightly packed, and they are only served in winter. If you buy them now, you can earn a fortune in cold weather. ."

But would this location be suitable for selling vegetables? Zhou Cheng said a little uncertainly: "This small shop is in the East Market, but it is two streets away from the downtown. Do you think it would be suitable to sell vegetables?"

She thought for a while, "Jiuxiang is not afraid of the deep alleys, there are always people passing by, and seeing fresh vegetables in winter, can you still buy them? We can still put up a sign at the door saying that they sell fresh vegetables. In this case, we can After buying a small shop, you can buy another ten acres of fertile land and rent it out to collect rent.”

In this way, don't they have land and shops?

He frowned and thought for a while, "Would it be too wasteful to sell a silver needle dish when you buy it at the store?"

Pei Xiu's mind is quick and easy to use when needed, "We can also choose a few rooms in the idle courtyard that are well lit and irradiated by the sun, and change it to a greenhouse to grow vegetables, and it will take a little manpower and firewood. He burned kang. Is that okay?"

The more she talked, the more she felt that it was feasible, and they had tried it before.
