At the beginning of the year of famine, the lucky girl of the farm family used cheats to support the

The weather was getting colder, and Fubao adjusted the sugar water in the store, adding a lot of hot drinks. Qingyang had been gone for more than two months. Two days ago, he sent a letter for the first time, which only wrote the two words "buy cloth".

Fubao wasn't entirely sure what he meant, but she had a rough guess. She couldn't help but think too much about what Lin Keyi said when she left, hoping that it wasn't a bad thing.

Most of the customers who come to the Chengnan shop are regular customers who make reservations one or two days in advance, so it is not busy. Fubao also has a lot of free time.

The shop was on track, and Fubao was ready to free up some time, so he hired a middle-aged woman to be the housekeeper at a high salary. This woman used to be the housekeeper of a nearby family, but later the family suddenly moved away overnight for unknown reasons and dismissed all their servants, so she had been working there all the time.

For seven consecutive days, Fubao was very satisfied with her performance, so he handed the shop over to her with confidence. Li Shuangrong or Li Darong would come to visit every two or three days.

Two months after the shop opened, she returned home at night for the first time. She did not tell her family in advance, as they had already had dinner and were sitting in the living room of the main house chatting.

When Fubao came in, Xiaohui kept whining at the door. She smiled and reached out to rub its head, saying, "It's me. Don't you recognize me?"

Xiao Hui suddenly stopped making any sound, wagging his tail non-stop, and excitedly circled around her.

Li Chongwang heard the voice, came out and said in surprise: "Little sister, you are back."

Then he shouted into the house: "Yishu is back, Grandpa and grandma..."

Before he finished shouting, the whole family rushed out of the house: "Hey, you're back, come in quickly."

Zhou Qiaoping: "Why do you come back at night? You are a little girl, it's too dangerous. No, let your brother Chongwang accompany you, otherwise I will be worried." During the two months that Fubao was away, Zhou Qiaoping kept thinking about her and went to see her every few days. But she was still very worried and lost some weight.

After saying that, she looked at Fubao's thin clothes and hurriedly said, "Come back soon." Then she turned around and went in to get a new cloak for Fubao: "Your mother made it for me and told me to bring it with me when I visit you tomorrow. It's perfect."

Fu Bao looked at the light blue cloak with a circle of white fluff around it and couldn't let it go: "Thank you, mother, it's so beautiful."

Zhao Xiuer tied the belt for her and said, "You are not at home all the time, so I said I would make it bigger so that you can wear it for two more years. I didn't expect it to be bigger for you, so it fits you just right."

Fubao smiled and turned around: "Does it look good?"

The whole family laughed and said, "Beautiful, beautiful. Like a fairy." Then she chatted and laughed with the family for a while.

After warming up inside for a while, Fubao looked around: "Where's my aunt? Why isn't she here?"

Zhou Qiaoping said, "She said she was tired and has fallen asleep. She is not feeling well now, so we should go see her tomorrow morning."

Fubao nodded. She couldn't stay long this time. She wanted to see her family and take Chongwang with her to the cloth shop. The weather was getting cold, so she needed to buy some clothes for her family and give some cloth to the workers in the shop.

Zhao Xiuer cooked her some steaming hot wontons. After eating a bowl of them, her stomach felt so soothed.

The next morning, Fubao went to see Zhang Ercui. Her belly was bulging and her body looked heavy. She had gained a lot of weight in the past two months.

Seeing Fubao, she muttered, "You still remember to come back. If you didn't know, I would think you forgot that you have a home here."

Fubao smiled and said, "Aunt, if you feel uncomfortable anywhere, tell me."

Zhang Ercui waved her hand: "What's wrong with you? I've given birth to three children, so what can I not understand? Go and rest when you wake up. There's nothing wrong with me."

Fu Bao took out a purse, put it beside her bed and said, "It's for calming the nerves. Just hang it on the head of the bed."

After saying that, he strode out of the door. Li Chongwang, who had been prepared early in the morning, had already harnessed the carriage and was waiting in the yard with Li Chongxi: "Chongxi said he wanted to go and see it too."

Fubao smiled and nodded: "Okay, let's go."

After Chongxi's leg was healed, Fubao finally saw some of his former self in him. His personality gradually became cheerful, and he changed from his gloomy state to become a healthy young man.

The three of them joked with each other in the carriage, laughing and joking. An hour later, they got off the carriage at the door of a cloth shop. They had already arrived at a town outside Yuzhou City, and the prices in the city were too expensive. What she wanted to buy was not just a few pieces of cloth.

The store was huge, with three entrances alone. There were many cloth merchants coming and going, all driving horse-drawn and ox-drawn carts to purchase goods.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see rows of shelves with fabrics of different colors, styles, and embroidery patterns, and the thickness is also divided into different shelves. Everything is clearly marked and easy to see at a glance.

The shop assistant came up to them as soon as he saw the three of them: "Are you here to purchase goods or ready-made clothes?"

Fubao: "Please tell me the price when you buy the goods."

The waiter's eyes lit up immediately: "Miss, please come with me. The price of a piece of coarse cloth here is three hundred coins. A piece of cotton cloth is six hundred coins, which can be used to make clothes and bedding. The price of silk and satin ranges from eight hundred coins to two taels of silver."

Fu Bao pondered for a moment, went over to touch the material of the cloth, and said, "How much stock do you have of this coarse cloth?"

The guy smiled and said, "See what you said, as long as you want as much as you want, we have as much as you want."

Fu Bao asked, "What if I want 5,000 horses?"

The man's face froze, and then he said uncertainly: "Ah? Five... five thousand? What do you need so much for?"

Fu Bao said casually, "There was a disaster in the south, and my master asked me to donate some cloth and clothes. Why? You don't have any?"

The clerk wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, but if we give it all to you at once, we won't be able to do any other business here. Please wait a moment, I'll go call the boss over."

Fubao nodded, and the guy hurriedly trotted off to look for someone.

She walked around to the shelf of silk fabrics at the back and called to her two brothers, "Hurry and take a look. Is there anything you like?"

Li Chongwang: "Why buy so much coarse cloth? We don't even have space to store it at home."

Fubao: "Master told me to buy these. They are useful."

When he heard it was Qingyang's idea, he stopped asking questions and quietly looked at the fabric with her.

In the middle of the cloth shop hung a cloud-patterned crepe skirt, which looked light and elegant, and felt soft and smooth in the hands. The cloud pattern on it was delicate yet not complicated, and Fubao was somewhat tempted.

She said to the guy next to her, "Can you take this dress off so I can try it on?"

The waiter nodded quickly: "Okay, just go upstairs and change later."

As he spoke, he took the clothes down. Just as Fu Bao was about to reach out to take it, his hand, which had been stained with nail polish, also reached out to grab it.

Fubao frowned and avoided her hand, then looked up to meet her gaze, which was not friendly.
