Tian Youyou walked into the butcher shop and bowed to the shopkeeper behind the counter, "Hello, shopkeeper."

Perhaps because of Feng Jing's consideration, the shopkeeper was also happy.

"What are you selling, little girl?"

"We sell fish, and we may also sell pickles or other things in the back."

Feng Jing was quite surprised to hear her say that.

"Selling pickles is fine." The shopkeeper frowned, worried, "If I sell fish, will it make my door too damp?"

If the entrance is too humid, some people will not want to come in to buy things, which will affect his business.

Tian Youyou thought about it and felt that the shopkeeper’s concerns were normal.

"Then we won't sell fish here, we'll sell pickles so we don't get anything wet or dirty at the door."

The shopkeeper nodded, "That's fine."

He gestured to indicate the size, "I can only give you a place as big as yours."

Too big and it would block his door.

"Also, Feng Jing and I are from the same village. She only has a short time to sell her goods every day, so the price I give her is low. As for you..."

"You need six coins for one hour."

"Okay." Tian Youyou agreed to the price.

"But we may not come every day, and we may come for more than one hour. So we will pay you one copper per day, okay?"

"Row."

Thus, an agreement was reached.

Xiao Yao was outside the shop and couldn't hear what was said inside.

But he could see Tian Youyou's straight waist.

This little girl...seems like she's not afraid of anything.

She seems to be someone who can solve everything on her own.

Unlike him...there are always so many people around him, taking care of a lot of things for him.

Tian Shounian went over to him and said, "Youyou, how are you?"

Just now, he was paying attention to the flow of people in front of the butcher shop.

There are indeed more than at the market.

It’s right if you think about it carefully.

The market is far away from the bustling area of ​​the county town, and the busiest days are the first and fifteenth of every month.

Villagers from various villages within the jurisdiction would bring their own products to the county to sell.

People in the county, both wealthy and ordinary people, would come to see if there was anything to buy.

As for weekdays, the county town has special butcher shops, vegetable shops, grain shops, etc., all of which are located in the more prosperous areas of the county town.

"It's settled." Tian Youyou told him what had been agreed upon.

"This time, it's all thanks to Aunt Feng." She turned to Feng Jing, "Aunt Feng, are you going back soon?"

"I'm going to buy some things." Feng Jing was tidying up the tofu stall.

"It's just right. We also need to go buy some things. Aunt Feng, why don't we wait outside the city in two sticks of incense and go back together?"

Feng Jing nodded, "Okay."

After separating from Feng Jing, Tian Youyou and his party went to the carpenter's shop and ordered two simplest beds and a crib for a baby.

In addition, a larger cart, ten large wooden barrels, and ten large wooden basins were ordered.

The baby's crib was custom-made at Tian Youyou's request, with baffles added on three sides. Once the child is born, it will be added directly next to the big bed.

Her idea did not convince Tian Shounian, but it did win over the owner of the carpenter shop.

"This is a really good idea, little girl." The carpenter looked at the blueprint he had drawn based on Tian Youyou's words, "Oh my, if I had known this two days earlier, the Du family wouldn't have lost their business."

"Don't worry, little girl. I will make this baby's bed for you."

The three beds were all of the simplest style and cost a total of one tael of silver.

The cart, ten wooden barrels and ten wooden basins cost six hundred coins.

"Three beds don't require much wood, but I didn't expect it to be so expensive." Walking out of the carpenter's shop, Tian Shounian muttered the prices.

Tian Youyou helplessly took his arm and said, "Dad, the money you earn must be spent."

"If we don't spend money, how can we have the motivation to earn more money?"

"So! From now on, we should spend when we should and save when we should."

Tian Shounian thought it made sense, "Yes, Youyou is right, Dad is not as open-minded as Youyou."

He smiled innocently, "Then go buy some quilts, buy two more."

"Oh, right." Tian Youyou gave him a thumbs up, "Buy some more cloth and cotton so that Mom can make cotton clothes to relieve her boredom when she has nothing to do, so that she won't always want to do heavy work."

"Alright."

The father and daughter looked at each other and smiled.

Tian Youyou thought of Xiao Yao who had been following them.

"What about you? Do you want to make winter clothes?"

Xiao Yao was stumped by her question.

He...someone sends him new clothes every month, and winter is no exception.

But no one has ever made winter clothes for him...

"Yes." Xiao Yao nodded.

Tian Youyou curled her lips and said, "Okay, I'll buy you two too."

"You're welcome." She muttered softly.

Despite the complaints, Tian Youyou still selected two fabrics for Xiao Yao.

Yes, she chose it.

It was because Xiao Yao was so procrastinating that he searched through all the fabrics in the store but still couldn't find one.

Xiao Yao smiled awkwardly. It wasn't that he was picky, he just didn't know how to choose.

He always wears whatever his family sends him.

But today he knew that he looked energetic and clean in moon-white clothes, and looked elegant in silver-white clothes.

This is what Tian Youyou said.

She herself chose Taoyao pink and Canglang green.

Tian Shounian also chose two colors for himself and Jiang Xiuxiu, and also asked for some cotton cloth so that he could prepare some small clothes for the children in advance.

Finally, I bought 40 kilograms of cotton.

After buying these things and leaving the city, I saw Feng Jing waiting outside.

The group returned to the village together. On the way, Feng Jing was tired of pushing the cart, so Tian Youyou and Xiao Yao took turns to help her push it for a while.

When they arrived at the village entrance, the things piled on the cart pushed by Tian Shounian attracted the attention of the villagers.

"Shounian, what's on your cart?" As they said this, they surrounded him.

Some villagers reached out without even thinking...

Fortunately, Tian Youyou was well prepared. She wrapped the cloth and cotton she bought with the extra clothes she wore in the morning to keep warm.

And just as the villagers gathered around, Tian Youyou pushed Xiao Yao forward.

Sure enough, when the villagers saw Xiao Yao, they all stepped back and dared not come forward.

Everyone now knows that Xiao Yao is the young master of a wealthy family and has poor health.

If anything happens to Xiao Yao because of them, they can't afford the compensation.

"So it belongs to Master Xiao Yao." The villagers made way...

"Did someone really order 100 kilograms of pickles?" Jiang Xiuxiu wanted to pick up a hoe and go dig Jerusalem artichokes immediately. "Then we'll go dig them this afternoon."

"Mom." Tian Youyou pressed her down with both hands and said, "Just leave the digging of Jerusalem artichokes to my dad."

"You have more important things to do."

As she spoke, Tian Youyou took out the cloth and cotton she bought today and placed them on the straw mat. "Winter is coming soon. You have to make winter clothes for us quickly."

"Here are two more sets of Xiao Yao's."

Jiang Xiuxiu looked through the cloth she bought in surprise, with an expression of uncontrollable joy on her face, "You bought so much?"

She couldn't imagine that she would ever have the chance to wear new winter clothes.

In previous years...their family's winter clothes were all torn ones from the old Tian family, and she would mend them and wear them.

"Mom, let's make some money as a family so we can make new winter clothes every year."

Jiang Xiuxiu just smiled at Tian Youyou's lofty ambitions and treated it as a joke.

Little did they know that the gears of fate had already begun turning...
