Marrying a village tyrant husband with space, being spoiled by the in-laws
Chapter 6: The First Market
"Then let's go together."
The little fat boy grinned and followed Yu Suihuan with a smile. It was great that finally someone wanted to play with him.
There were many people digging wild vegetables by the river, but I didn’t see any spring apricots today.
She spotted a patch of wild vegetables, squatted down and started pulling them.
The little fat boy followed suit, but he couldn't tell the difference between wild vegetables and weeds. He just picked them and stuffed them all into Yu Suihuan's basket, which was soon full.
Yu Suihuan couldn't eat much himself, so he didn't say anything to the fat boy. He just needed to pick up the grass when he got back, so he looked up and said to him.
"It's getting late and I need to go home. You should go home too."
"Well, can I still play with my sister tomorrow?"
He finally found a playmate, but he still hadn't played enough. There were too many people here, and he wanted to play with his sister alone. A feeling of irritation came over him.
"Sure, I'll be here digging wild vegetables tomorrow."
The little fat boy scratched his head, nodded reluctantly, and walked towards an imposing blue brick courtyard not far from the village.
As soon as he left, the people who were digging wild vegetables began to whisper.
Yu Suihuan also heard a general idea. This little fat boy is called Chen Dabao. He is the youngest son of the landlord Chen from the neighboring village. Not only is he stupid, he is also crazy. When he gets crazy, he runs around the village. The whole family treats such a fool as an eyesore.
She suddenly realized, no wonder he was well dressed and fat, it turned out he was the stupid son of a landlord.
As for those who go crazy and run around the village, most of these mentally retarded people have some kind of mental illness.
She picked up the basket and was about to leave when she heard someone calling her.
"Huanhuan, my guess was right. You are here after all."
Chun Xing saw people and trotted towards them.
"Chun Xing, what do you want from me?"
Yu Suihuan also went forward to greet him.
"There will be a market in town tomorrow. I embroidered a handkerchief overnight and plan to take it to the owner of the embroidery shop tomorrow to show it and buy some embroidery thread. Do you want to come with me?"
"Go, go, I want to go to the town, too."
She had thought she would have to wait a few days before going, but she didn't expect it to be so soon. She could just go to town tomorrow to sell the gold pendant.
The two agreed on a time, and Yu Suihuan took the wild vegetables home to cook.
While eating the pancakes and wild vegetables, she was thinking that when she had money tomorrow, she would buy a big piece of pork, braise the pork, make dumplings, and meat buns, and eat to her heart's content. She would never eat pancakes and wild vegetables that hurt her throat again.
This is simply not a life for human beings.
The next day, Yu Suihuan got up at daybreak. After she had tidied herself up, she heard someone calling her outside the door.
She picked up the basket and went out. Chun Xing and a strong man were driving an ox cart parked on the side of the road.
"Huanhuan, come on over and get on the oxcart. The town fair is very lively today. We can go for a walk after we finish our business, and then come back together in the afternoon on my brother's oxcart."
Yu Sui walked forward happily, sat next to Chun Xing and did not forget to say something to the man driving the coach.
"Thank you, Brother Chun Xing."
"You're welcome, sister."
Li Chunsheng smiled and looked a bit honest.
Although this ox cart is not very fast, it is much better than walking on two feet. At least people don’t get tired.
On the way, Chun Xing happily took out her handkerchief and showed it to Yu Suihuan.
"Huanhuan, it usually takes me two days to embroider a handkerchief with a floral pattern. The lace you taught me is simple, and the words are also simple. I finished one in one night. Take a look at it."
She wiped her hands on her body silently before taking it.
"The embroidery is really beautiful. The traditional patterns are nice, but they become monotonous after a while. This brocade is as thin as a cicada's wing and breathable. The lace and words seem to float on it, which makes people's eyes bright. It will definitely sell for a good price!"
"Huanhuan, you speak so nicely. It's different if you can recognize words."
The two chatted and laughed all the way, and after walking for about quarter of an hour, they arrived at Qingshan Town.
Maybe because of the big market, the town was bustling with people and the sounds of hawking were endless.
The ox cart stopped in front of the Yuanyang Embroidery Tower.
"Little sister, my sister is here. When you are done shopping, just wait here for me. I will come and pick you up when I am done."
Li Chunsheng held the cattle whip in one hand and hurried to support Chunxing with the other.
"Got it, big brother. Go get the goods."
The two men got off the ox cart and felt their buttocks were numb and sore.
After watching Li Chunsheng driving the ox cart away, the two of them entered the Yuanyang Embroidery Tower.
It was Yu Suihuan’s first time to enter such a store and he was filled with curiosity.
There are many wooden shelves on all sides of the store, on which hang various embroidered ready-made clothes, cloaks, curtains, pillowcases and quilt covers.
There are all kinds of smaller headbands, handkerchiefs, insoles, and sachets.
There were quite a few people choosing things in the store, and the women serving the customers would not look down on anyone just because the customer was not well dressed. They treated all customers equally and explained everything carefully, which made Yu Suihuan look at them with a higher regard.
"Miss Chun Xing is here. What good things have you embroidered this time?"
The person who spoke was a woman with a bun at the counter, probably in her twenties. She had a smile on her face as she spoke, and her appearance showed the shrewdness of a business person.
"I just embroidered a new handkerchief with some new patterns and sent it to you to take a look. If you like it and want to keep it, I will go back and continue embroidering."
Chun Xing smiled shyly, took out the blue cloth wrapped in a handkerchief from the basket and placed it on the counter.
The moment the proprietress opened the blue cloth, she was attracted by the handkerchief made of brocade gauze.
The thin material has simple patterns embroidered around it. Although simple, it looks beautiful. There are only two lines of poetry embroidered on it, and the words seem to float on it. The most important thing is that the words are embroidered on both sides, and the back is not messy at all, which is very novel.
Only the embroiderers in the palace or the professional embroiderers in well-known embroidery workshops know how to embroider on both sides, and it is not easily passed on to others.
Somehow this girl Chun Xing had learned this skill.
The shopkeeper Hui Niang had a smile on her face and nodded with satisfaction.
"It's really good. There's nothing messy on the back. It's clean and tidy. The material is brocade yarn. The pattern is simple but unique. Wait, I'll ask my boss to come over and take a look. I guarantee you'll get a good price."
Originally, there was no need to bother the boss with such a small matter as collecting things, Hui Niang could make the decision herself. The boss had been worried recently because the shop in the county town was hit hard by a newly opened embroidery shop and the business plummeted.
If we only talk about embroidery workmanship, the two companies are on par with each other, and Yuanyang Embroidery Tower is even better.
But the rivals always came up with some new styles to attract people from time to time, so naturally they gradually fell behind.
Miss Chun Xing was surprised to see this double-sided embroidered handkerchief. She thought maybe her employer needed this novel style.
Thinking of this, Hui Niang couldn't help but quicken her pace.
Chun Xing and Yu Suihuan looked at each other secretly and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
It seems that this handkerchief can really make money.
At this time, the sound of horse hooves was heard, and a rather luxurious carriage stopped in front of the Yuanyang Embroidery Tower.
A little girl held up the curtain and jumped down from the carriage. Then a young woman in luxurious clothes came out of the carriage. With the help of the little girl, she slowly got off the carriage and walked towards the store.
