I traveled through time and space as a little girl, and the emperor appointed me as the great master
Chapter 5: After buying something and bringing it home, was it sold?
"Okay, I'll listen to you," Xiaohua said indifferently.
The two little sisters soon reached the market again.
“It’s quite lively.”
Kong Xiaoxiao didn't expect that the ancient market was so mature.
It’s very lively and there’s everything for sale.
Smelling the aroma of the food, Xiaohua couldn't help swallowing.
So delicious.
"Hehe..." Xiaohua smiled foolishly at Kong Xiaoxiao embarrassedly.
"When I make money, I'll buy delicious food for us Xiaohua," Kong Xiaoxiao said to comfort her sister.
They are the same age, but Xiaoxiao is two months older than Xiaohua.
"I don't want it. You're having a hard time being alone right now. I don't want you to waste money buying me food."
Although Xiaohua was touched by Xiaoxiao's words, she was very clear about Xiaoxiao's current situation and her face was full of rejection.
At home, her parents asked her to play with Xiaoxiao more often, fearing that she would be lonely. They also asked her to help as much as she could, as it was not easy for Xiaoxiao to be alone.
She is 10 years old now, not young anymore, and is sensible enough to understand what her parents mean.
"Hey, don't regret it. Let's go and have a good walk." Kong Xiaoxiao took Xiaohua through the food street and came to another street.
Compared with the food street, this street is relatively quiet.
"Xiaoxiao, why are you here?" Xiaohua asked puzzledly. Why come to this quiet street instead of going out for a walk when there are so many lively places?
"I'm looking for business, let's take a look," Kong Xiaoxiao said ambiguously.
Seeing Xiaoxiao’s serious look, Xiaohua didn’t ask any more questions. She just wanted to accompany her.
Kong Xiaoxiao looked along the street and saw three fortune tellers, two letter writing shops, one calligraphy and painting seller, and two flower sellers.
She looked at the fortune-telling stall carefully.
Each of the three fortune-telling stalls has a table, two stools, and a flag with its own signboard.
The three stall owners are all quite old. Two of them have their eyes closed as if they are meditating, looking like enlightened masters.
The other person's eyes were moving around, probably looking for customers.
As for their attire, the three of them were wearing clothes similar to those of Taoist priests.
No matter how I look at it, it seems unreliable.
"Xiao Fu, is there no other way?" Kong Xiaoxiao called the system desperately, crying without tears.
"Host, if you want money to come quickly and you want points to upgrade me, you can only tell fortunes."
Kong Xiaoxiao gave up after hearing this.
Come on, do it.
Who is afraid of whom?
Who hasn't had a first time?
When she gets back, she'll ask the village carpenter to make a table for her, and ask an old scholar to write a domineering sign for her, so that she can look imposing enough.
"Let's go, we're going to buy some food." Xiaoxiao pulled Xiaohua and said after she finished reading.
"Oh, okay." Xiaohua came in with a confused look on her face and left with a confused look on her face.
Arrived at the grain store.
"Boss, please give me 5 kilograms of flour, 5 kilograms of cornmeal, and 10 kilograms of brown rice."
“Okay,” the shopkeeper happily packed it up immediately.
"Little girl, a total of 250 coins"
Kong Xiaoxiao: ...Shen Tama’s 250.
"Boss, can you help me get another 2 kilograms of soybeans?"
Kong Xiaoxiao didn't want the 250 yuan, and then she saw the soybeans and thought of tofu, so she said.
"Okay, okay, 265 coins in total."
After giving the money, Kong Xiaoxiao put the food into the backpack. There were 25 kilograms in total, which she could still carry.
"Xiaoxiao, let me carry the backpack for you, so you can get better." Xiaohua was worried about Xiaoxiao's health, so she stepped forward and pulled the backpack.
Kong Xiaoxiao pulled Xiaohua's hand away and said with a smile: "No need, it's just a small amount, I can handle it. Come on, I'll treat you to something delicious."
"Xiaoxiao, where did you get the money?" Xiaohua asked the question that was in her heart. Her parents said that Xiaoxiao's family couldn't afford to eat, but today Xiaoxiao didn't look like she couldn't afford to eat.
Coming, coming, coming again
Xiaoxiao muttered to herself.
"When my grandfather passed away, he gave me a silver bracelet and said it was my mother's relic, and he had kept it for me."
"He gave it to me when he left. I thought things are dead, but people are alive. Why keep dead things? So I pawned it for one tael of silver. I can buy some food. I can eat for a long time by myself."
Kong Xiaoxiao calmly gave the excuse she had prepared long ago.
A gold bracelet is called a silver bracelet to show off one's wealth.
"Oh, that's what I told you. You have to spend money frugally. There will be many other places where you will need money in the future," Xiaohua advised like a little housekeeper.
"Okay, my housekeeper," Kong Xiaoxiao reached out and touched Xiaohua's chin, jokingly.
"Hmph, I'm not going to pay attention to you." Xiaohua blushed, stomped her feet and walked forward.
Kong Xiaoxiao chased after him with amusement, and then the two of them made peace with each other.
"Come on, I'll take you to eat something delicious." As she said that, she pulled Xiaohua to the scallion pancake stall.
"Boss, give me two scallion pancakes."
"Okay, it'll be ready soon." As soon as the boss heard that business was coming, he started working smoothly.
"Xiaoxiao, I just told you to use it economically, how come you forgot it so suddenly?" Xiaohua tugged at her sleeve and said helplessly.
"I'll just eat it once. Don't worry, I won't buy anything else until I earn enough money." Xiaoxiao promised.
Soon, each of them had a scallion pancake and ate it till their mouths were full.
"I didn't expect it to be so delicious." Xiaohua was already attracted by the delicious food. She completely forgot who was talking about saving money just now and was eating voraciously.
Kong Xiaoxiao also took a bite and tasted it carefully. It was just average.
The pancake is not an authentic scallion pancake, nor is it fried, and it does not have that golden and crispy texture. It is just fried with a little oil and some scallions.
Maybe they just couldn't bear to use oil. Oil was a rare commodity in ordinary families in ancient times.
The stall owner is also an ordinary person. He is reluctant to make scallion pancakes like modern people. He fills a pot with oil, throws the pancakes into the oil, and fries them until they are golden and crispy.
"Let's go back." Kong Xiaoxiao was still in a hurry to go back to make props for setting up the stall.
"Okay." Xiaohua also saw that it was getting late and she would be punished if she went back late.
An hour later, the two arrived at the village entrance, and Xiaohua followed them to Kong Xiaoxiao's house.
"Oh, did you make a fortune?"
As soon as the two arrived in the yard, they heard a weird voice.
Okay, I know it’s that old witch, Mrs. Kong Zhu, without having to think about it.
"Why are you in my house? You are not welcome here, please leave immediately." Kong Xiaoxiao's face turned stern and she drove the man away in a cold tone.
Kong Xiaoxiao also saw other people, strangers she had never seen before.
A woman with big, round shoulders, dressed in flashy clothes, with bright red hair and a face painted like a dead person.
There were two tall and strong men following behind him, who looked like thugs, and I was afraid they had bad intentions.
"Xiaohua, go back quickly. You don't have to take care of this place." Kong Xiaoxiao was afraid that if something happened later she would not be able to take care of Xiaohua, so she prepared to send Xiaohua away first.
"Oh, okay." Xiaohua also felt something was different, but she didn't want to run away. She planned to go back and call her parents, and the village chief and others, as she felt that the old witch had bad intentions.
Without any hesitation, he ran away.
Mrs. Kong Zhu didn't take Xiaohua seriously. She just stared at Kong Xiaoxiao and cursed at her.
"You little whore, born of a mother but not taught by her, how can you speak to your elders like this?"
"How can you say you are an elder? Bah, old witch, get out of here now, or don't blame me for being rude."
Kong Xiaoxiao knew her physical condition, and also knew that she would not be able to defeat the two men if she fought, so she tried not to fight.
Mrs. Kong Zhu completely ignored Kong Xiaoxiao's words and said to the woman next to her in a flattering manner: "Madam Hua, how is the person? You have seen him. Although he is a little thin, he is not bad looking. He will look even better if he is taken care of. You won't lose out."
The called Aunt Hua waved her fan, raised her chin and nodded, saying, "Well, you are sensible and didn't fool me."
"Here, this is the agreed 10 taels of silver."
Kong Xiaoxiao had been observing them, and at this moment she understood what they meant. It turned out that they were going to sell her out. Damn it, what a bitch.
"Madam Hua, do you know that the old witch next to you is not our guardian and has no right to sell me? Are you sure you want to do this illegal thing?" Kong Xiaoxiao said coldly.
"Oh, little girl, look at what you said. She said that all your elders are gone, and now she is the only one who is considered your elder, so she has the right to sell you, because you have not yet established a household name and cannot make your own decisions."
"Besides, following Aunt Hua is to enjoy a good life.
Not only do you wear gold and silver, but you also have maids to serve you. This is the life of a young lady. You should stop worrying about this."
Aunt Hua took a handkerchief and swung it back and forth, twisting her waist like a bucket and uttering a sweet voice.
