Good luck every time

Chapter 169 Checkout

Li Ruyi was reading a book under the lamp in the room.

She is extremely busy on weekdays and can only use all her rest time to read.

After hearing what her elder sister said, she looked outside.

"Don't worry! It'll be there soon!"

The eldest sister asked her worriedly.

"Did you guys make an appointment?"

Li Ruyi shook her head.

"No, but I know he will definitely come today. He might be afraid that others will see us and it will be bad for our reputation!"

After saying that, she lowered her head to read again.

The eldest sister didn't know why she was so sure that Han Shian would come, but since she said so, the eldest sister patiently waited with her.

Under the cover of night, a figure passed through the cornfield and went around from the other side to the small bridge at the end of the village.

The moonlight on August 15th shines on the ground, so bright that there is no need for a lantern to illuminate the bridge.

Han Shian walked quickly across the bridge, passed the abandoned houses with no one living in them, and arrived at the gate of the new courtyard that the Li family had built for Li Ruyi.

He looked around and was about to knock on the door when his elder sister had already opened it and welcomed him in.

Han Shian was not surprised and was very calm.

The eldest sister was a little surprised.

She really didn't expect that Han Shian actually came!

She looked around and saw no one, so she quickly pulled the person who wanted to pay his respects in and slammed the door shut.

Han Shian didn't say anything, and his eldest sister didn't want to talk to him either, so she led him back to the house.

Li Ruyi had already put away his books and went to dig up the jar he had buried.

The eldest sister brought people in, started to set the table, and asked the third sister to serve the food.

Grandma Ding, who was lying on the kang, fell to the ground in an instant. She kicked the stool at the door and turned it over in her hands. She sat at the table with the stool in her hand and waited for dinner.

Han Shian bowed to her first.

"Grandma! I brought you a holiday gift."

As he said this, he pulled out a three-edged dart with a silk thread from his sleeve.

The triangular dart was shining with a cold light. If it was given to someone as a gift during a festival, it would most likely be shot back. But it was different for Granny Dante.

She touched the triangular dart that Han Shian gave her, and her brows relaxed.

I cursed at the same time.

"You're very good! Unlike that unfilial disciple Li Ruyi! I asked her to buy some herbs, but she delayed me for a month!"

Li Ruyi, who was digging with his butt sticking out: …

"Master, I'm right here!"

Granny Ding turned her head away and pretended she didn't know Li Ruyi was in the room.

Han Shian smiled.

He took out a few brushes, an inkstone and an ordinary ink stick from his arms.

When the eldest sister and the third sister came back, he gave these things to them.

The eldest sister was a little flustered, as this was the first time she received a holiday gift from someone else.

The third brother was very happy and gave a flower to Han Shian.

Han Shian didn't want it at first, but the third sister said that it was the most beautiful one made by her second sister. She had kept it for several days, waiting to give it to Brother Han as a holiday gift today!

Han Shian: ...

At that moment he was indeed moved.

But the next moment, Li Ruyi snatched the flower away.

"Go away! I asked you why you didn't wear a flower and are waiting here!"

The third brother's eyes rolled around and Li Ruyi kicked him on the butt hard!

Li Ruyi took out the money jar.

The copper coins were not very heavy, and a small one was not much bigger than a fingernail.

But there are too many of them.

Li Ruyi fell onto the kang and spread out on the ground with a loud bang.

The money here is already strung together.

One string is one string of money, forty-seven strings of money, or forty-seven thousand copper coins.

After pouring out the money, she put the jar back, covered it with a wooden lid and buried it.

Fill the soil and tamp it down, then shovel some loose soil from your shoes and spread it on top. If you don't look carefully, you can't see anything.

Han Shian looked at the pile of money and was silent for a moment.

Otherwise, although silver is expensive, it has not become useless because copper coins are too heavy.

Except for the five strings of cash which belonged to him, the remaining forty-two strings of cash belonged to the government office.

He could take it back today, and then buy a salt sticker for Li Ruyi tomorrow, and then he could ask her to fetch salt the day after tomorrow.

The only problem is that it's too much money.

Han Shian was worried whether he could recite it or not.

It was difficult for Li Ruyi to hold him, so she could only carry him from the ground to the kang with difficulty.

This money must weigh about 60 to 70 kilograms. Han Shian sighed. It seems that he may not be able to move it all in one go!

The eldest sister and the third sister have already brought all the food.

Li Ruyi found a sack to put the money in.

While putting things into the sack, he spoke to Han Shian.

"One, two... fourteen... twenty-seven... forty-seven..."

"Here is forty-seven strings of cash. This month's payment is complete."

After saying that, he placed the sack beside the kang.

"I strung the money and counted it, but you still have to count it again later. I separated the new money from the old money. If you go to the silver shop, just weigh it."

There is a slight difference in weight between new and old coins, and sometimes jewelry stores do not weigh the coins accurately.

Most of the time you still have to count.

However, if the money is separated, the attitude of the jewelry store will be much better.

Han Shian has always been prudent in his work and did not reject this proposal.

"it is good."

Li Ruyi tied the mouth of the sack tightly.

"I'll send the money back to you later."

Han Shian didn't refuse.

He couldn't move all this money.

"it is good!"

After Li Ruyi finished making the arrangements, the tables, chairs and benches were all placed in place. Even the eldest sister and the third sister were already sitting at the table, waiting for the two of them to start eating.

"Then let's eat first! I made mooncakes. Oh, and there's one more thing I need to tell you. I bought a donkey. I told people you paid for it. If anyone asks, don't let it slip."
