The female doctor farmed the land, bought a husband and set up a separate household
Chapter 27 The Big Villain is Coming
Nulu is a brothel run by the government.
They usually contain female relatives of criminals or young women captured from enemy countries.
Entering that kind of place is more miserable than entering hell, and there is no hope of ever seeing the light of day again in this life.
"Where are the children?" Jiang Sining asked, "General Si's family should have children, right?"
"That's not clear." Bai Kuan said, "But you don't have to think about it to know that her end is definitely not good. I guess she was sold to someone's house to be a servant or a maid."
At this time, the line of prison vans on the street was almost over, and the last one to go was a special prison van.
It was more like a cart than a prison van. A young man covered in blood was lying flat on the cart, with his hands and feet chained.
From a distance, the man's face was covered in blood, his appearance could not be seen clearly, and the rise and fall of his chest was very weak.
Moreover, the right calf is severely deformed, probably because the leg bone is broken.
What caught her attention was the man's fingernails, which were slightly black, a sign of poisoning.
"This man is the eldest son of General Si." Seeing that she had been looking at him, Bai Kuan continued, "The notice posted yesterday said that he and some of the Si family's retainers would be sold in our Gaochuan County, and asked wealthy families to hurry up and buy them."
"Mr. Bai, did the notice say what this person's name was?"
"I heard it, it seems his name is Si... Si Chenan? Yes, that's the name..."
Jiang Sining's expression moved slightly. No wonder it sounded a little familiar!
Si Chenan, it’s Si Chenan!
The villain in the original novel who led hundreds of thousands of bandits and robbers to rebel and finally attacked the capital!
Up to now, she has finally established a slight connection with a well-known character in the original novel.
Of course, that's all.
After all, this is the villain, destined to be defeated by the heroine and have a bad ending.
She should hurry up and make more money to avoid the upcoming natural and man-made disasters and live her life comfortably.
Be it the protagonist, supporting character or villain, she doesn't want to get involved in these people's affairs at all.
Soon all the prison cars passed by, and the chef brought over some fried mushrooms, which were still as delicious as last time.
For 420 kilograms of mushrooms, Jiang Sining received 8400 coins.
After deducting the cost of 2100 wen, the remaining 6300 wen are profit.
Holding a small bag of silver change and a few hundred scattered copper coins, Jiang Sining took Jiang Yan and Qianqian and left Tianranju through the back door.
"Sister, shall we go home now?"
"Go home?" Jiang Sining shook her head. "Why go home so early? Big sister will take you to buy new clothes!"
……
In summer, ordinary farmers wear shorts and shirts made of coarse linen. Those with a little money wear thin cotton. Only extremely wealthy families can afford silk and satin.
In the entire Gaochuan County, there are only a handful of families who can afford to wear silk.
The three of them came to a shop selling cloth and ready-made clothes. According to Jiang Sining's idea, they would definitely buy ready-made clothes directly because she didn't know how to sew at all.
But the price of ready-made clothes is much more expensive than buying cloth and making them yourself, so Jiang Yan feels it is not cost-effective.
"Sister, why don't you just buy some cloth and ask someone to make it so it will fit you better."
Jiang Sining thought about it and realized the same thing, so he bought a piece of thin cotton cloth.
Seeing that she was very generous even though she was not dressed well, the cloth shop owner said, "Little girl, we bought some thick cotton cloth a few days ago. Do you want to buy some?"
"Haha, shopkeeper, you are lying to our children?" Jiang Yan said, "It's still summer now, why buy thick cotton cloth?"
"Little kid, you don't understand this." The shopkeeper laughed, "Now buying thick cotton cloth only costs 700 coins per piece, which is % cheaper than when winter comes! It's a good deal!"
The shopkeeper took out a piece of thick cotton cloth. Jiang Sining touched it with her hand and found it was indeed very thick and much softer than linen. She decided to buy some.
This winter will be very cold, so it’s a good idea to stock up while they’re cheap.
"What do you think, little girl? The price is so reasonable, why don't you buy one? You can use it to make a jacket in the winter, it will keep you very warm!"
"Shopkeeper, this cloth of yours is old stock from last year, right?"
"Hey... Hehe, little girl, this year's cotton hasn't been harvested yet, so it must be last year's." The shopkeeper said, "But this cloth won't go bad if it's kept for a year, right?"
"Yes, the cloth will not go bad." Jiang Sining said, "But after the cotton harvest this year, everyone will naturally go to buy new cloth. I'm afraid your old cloth will be difficult to sell, right?"
The shopkeeper's face froze. He didn't expect that a little girl could have such knowledge.
To be honest, he has been in the cloth business for more than 20 years, and there are few people who can explain the mystery in one sentence.
"Then I'll give you 650 coins per horse."
"500, I want two."
"No, no, I will lose money this way..."
"Forget it, it's still early in winter and we're not in a hurry."
Seeing that she was really going to leave, the shopkeeper finally made up his mind: "500 is 500, sell it! Little girl, you are really amazing. I have been selling cloth for so many years, and you are the best at bargaining!"
"Really?" Jiang Sining blinked and said, "In that case, how about selling me four horses for 1800 coins?"
Shopkeeper:......
In the end, Jiang Sining spent 2200 coins to buy one piece of thin cotton cloth and four pieces of thick cotton cloth.
She also asked about cotton, but the shopkeeper said there wasn't much in stock. If she wanted, he could help her buy it, but she had to pay a deposit first.
Finally, Jiang Sining paid 1 tael of silver and ordered 100 kilograms of cotton.
After coming out of the cloth shop, it was almost noon. Jiang Sining remembered that he had ordered a pig and some fish, so he hurried to the market.
Due to the hot weather, the market opened early and closed early, and there were hardly any people around before noon.
In front of the pork stall, He Yousheng kept looking at the entrance of the market, with beads of sweat all over his face. On the pork stall in front of him, there were two whole fat pigs, and under the counter there were two large basins filled with more than 20 kilograms of live fish.
These were all ordered by the little girl, who said she would come back today to pick them up, but he hasn't seen her yet, which makes him very anxious.
If that girl hadn't come, the meat would have gone bad today given how hot it is!
This is a whole pig. If it stinks, all my work this month will be in vain!
"Lao He," said the pork vendor next to him, "I told you, you must have been cheated. It's not New Year or any other festival now, and the weather is so hot, who would buy a whole pig at once?"
"What if there's a wedding at home?"
"Haha..." The other vendors all laughed. "What kind of family, what kind of wedding, would use a whole pig at once? I don't think even Mr. Zheng, the richest family in our county, would be so generous, right?"
"You're right to listen to us. Hurry up and unload the meat, take it home and hang it in the well. With luck, it may not go bad."
"If I sell it at a lower price tomorrow, even if I lose money, it won't be too much."
"Then...then...then they have ordered so many fish? What do you say?" He Yousheng said.
"What else can we say?" someone said, "Maybe those fish sellers were hired by her."
"Impossible, that's definitely not the case." He Yousheng tried to defend himself, "She won't get any benefit from doing this, so why bother?"
"Why is there no benefit?" someone said, "You can do the math yourself. She only gave you one tael of silver as a deposit, and you spent three taels on the fish. So, did she sell you two taels of silver for the fish?"
"Fish are not selling well right now, so she came up with this idea and made you the scapegoat!"
"No, definitely not!"
He Yousheng knew that what everyone said made sense and that the proposed solution was the best at the moment as it would allow him to suffer the least loss.
But for some reason, when he thought of the little girl's eyes, he felt that she would definitely not lie to him.
If even fairy-like characters can lie, then are there still good people in this world?
But after waiting for a while, the girl still didn't come. Everyone else started to pack up their stalls, and the looks they gave him were full of sympathy and gloating.
Is she really a liar?
No, definitely not.
Maybe something happened suddenly and he can't come today.
Just as He Yousheng was about to close the stall and hurriedly take the pork back, a crisp voice rang out in front of the stall: "Uncle, I want a pig. Have you prepared it for me?"
He Yousheng was shocked and looked up quickly.
Under the scorching sun, who else could it be but that little fairy?
It’s only been three days since they last met, and the little fairy has become like a different person, he almost doesn’t recognize her!
