After she became the brother of the male protagonist in the imperial examination, she became the spo

After Lin Daniu and his group left, the mother and son did not rest, but went straight into the county town with their purses in their pockets.

There is a relatively wide dirt road from Lijia Village to the gate of the county town. In this season, the slightest wind will cause dust to fly everywhere, so when they left the village, the mother and son covered their heads with towels.

That’s right, don’t just cover your mouth and nose, but even your head, otherwise there might be sand in your hair.

"That's the only bad thing about this place. Uncle and aunt will have to cover all the food with oilcloth, otherwise everyone will eat sand." Guangdan complained with his nose wrinkled.

"What do you know? These sands were laid down in the winter when the roads were slippery due to snow. It doesn't look good now, but laying sand in the winter is not something that ordinary people can do." Fang Cuihua said with envy in her tone.

"Okay, I'm ignorant." Guangdan shrank his head and immediately shut up.

After all, it goes without saying what the roads in their Linjia Village look like in winter. It is something that one cannot envy.

When the mother and son arrived at the city gate, they still had to queue up to enter the city. Fortunately, the entrance fee for a child as old as Guangdan was 1 cent, while for an adult like Fang Cuihua it was 2 cents.

The prices for mule carts and horse carriages transporting goods into the county town are different again.

After entering the city, the two went directly to the east street. As they walked, the mother and son observed each other's clothes. After all, this time they were going to the best silver shop in the county.

It can't be broken into pieces and then thrown out.

About a quarter of an hour later, the two arrived at the door of Baofeng Silver Shop.

This is a two-story building facing the street. The two words "Baofeng" on the plaque are gilded and sparkle in the morning sun.

"Mom, are you really not going to buy it?" Guangdan asked with stars in his eyes, poking Fang Cuihua's arm gently.

"Buy a head!" Fang Cuihua pulled her bald eggs apart with disgust, then tidied up her clothes and walked into the jewelry store.

"You two are here to buy silver jewelry, right? Please come this way."

As soon as he stepped into the door of the silver shop, a waiter came to greet him.

"Well, let's take a look ourselves first. There's no need to receive us." Fang Cuihua held her head high and chest out, then waved her hand with a calm attitude.

The waiter smiled, made a gesture of invitation and retreated, then continued to stand at the door, waiting for the next customer.

Guangdan, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his heart. This service attitude was much better than the ones he saw in costume dramas and novels where they treated each customer differently according to their needs!

But he didn't think about it anymore, but followed Fang Cuihua and watched carefully.

The shelves on the first floor are filled with some basic silver jewelry, including bracelets, pendants, chains, pendants, hairpins, and locks. When they are put together, you can't really tell what's what, but they all look beautiful.

Some silver ornaments are embellished with tiny gemstones, making them look small and delicate.

"If ma'am likes it, you can take it out and have a look." The female shopkeeper on the first floor, who had just sent away a customer, looked at Fang Cuihua with a smile.

"No, no, let's wait and see." Fang Cuihua said calmly, but she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

I wouldn't say I feel cramped, but I just feel that everyone around me is watching, and it's a bit inappropriate for me to just look and not buy.

But if she was asked to spend several hundred dollars to buy these jewelries, she would be reluctant to do so, even though she felt that she was quite rich now, but she still couldn't bear to spend it.

"Mom, there's more upstairs. Let's go and take a look." Guangdan tugged at the corner of Fang Cuihua's clothes and reminded her in a low voice.

The jewelry on this floor were all of the most basic styles, and it was impossible to tell what they were like. After that, he happened to see a young girl and her maid going straight to the second floor, and Guangdan wanted to follow them to see what was going on.

"laugh---"

As soon as Guangdan finished speaking, a loud sneer came from behind him.

Fang Cuihua and Guangdan, mother and son, immediately looked back with some curiosity.

It was a middle-aged woman with red hairpins and a large pink peony on her head. Guangdan took only one look and felt that it was really, really an eye-catcher. The pink peony was even bigger than the woman's face.

"Waiter, you have to look carefully at the person."

It seemed that seeing that Guangdan and Fang Cuihua did not react, the woman raised her head and added another sentence, as if it was disrespectful to her if Guangdan and Fang Cuihua did not get angry.

"Mrs. Shi, what brings you to our silver shop today? Look at my eyes, I didn't notice you behind me just now. Come, come, we have some new goods from the capital, they are rare, I'll take you to have a look!"

Before Guangdan and his mother could react, a clear girl's voice was heard from the stairs on the second floor.

Guangdan looked up and saw the young girl looking at the eye-catching lady with a smile on her face.

"Isn't this Miss Zheng? Then take me to see her." When the lady saw Miss Zheng speaking, her originally arrogant attitude immediately disappeared, but she still glanced at Guangdan and his mother with pride.

Fang Cuihua and Guangdan wondered who they had offended. Perhaps they had met a psychopath.

After the young Miss Zheng brought the lady wearing the big peony flower on her head to the second floor, Fang Cuihua and her son hesitated.

They had agreed at home early on that they came to the county town to do business, and harmony is the most important thing in everything, so they couldn't offend anyone as soon as they arrived in the county town.

Although this was really an unexpected disaster, who would have known that there would be an eye-catching lady who would be unhappy with them.

Just as the mother and son were hesitating, the waiter next to them came over again.

"Aren't you two going to take a look on the second floor? The second floor is where our silver shop's more precious jewelry is. You two go and take a look. The lady just now went to the private room."

The waiter's words once again greatly increased Guangdan's favorable impression of this silver shop. He felt that this waiter was so considerate! ! ! !

After thanking the waiter, the two went directly to the second floor via the wooden stairs.

As soon as you enter the second floor, the feeling is immediately different. Unlike the silver jewelry on the first floor, half of the jewelry on the second floor is gold jewelry, embellished with agate, turquoise and ruby. The style is much more exquisite than that on the first floor.

Even among the numerous jewellery items, the mother and son saw quite a few that were slightly similar to those in the wooden box, differing in size and sophistication, but somewhat similar in style.

This made the mother and son feel relieved, at least some of the jewelry in the wooden box could be processed.

The two did not stay on the second floor for long. They didn't know what was going on. Although the waiters in the jewelry store were quite nice, Fang Cuihua just felt guilty.

When they returned to the first floor, Guangdan thought for a moment and then pulled Fang Cuihua to the waiter and asked in a low voice, "Big brother, my mother has some old jewelry. Can we melt it down and make new ones? We will pay for the labor."
