Everyone in the Jiang family enjoyed the meal.

Compared to the sesame seed cakes at noon, the food at home is more appetizing.

After dinner.

While the oil lamp was still on, Zhang Jinlan took out her purse and prepared to count how much money she had earned that day.

I took away eighteen sausages in the morning, and my granddaughter ate one.

Seventeen root sticks sold for three hundred and forty coins, plus twenty bowls of potatoes, a total of five hundred and forty coins.

There are also three pots of mung bean soup.

She couldn't remember how many cups she sold.

After deducting the money for renting the ox cart, there was still one or two taels of silver left.

That was the mung bean soup that sold for nearly half a tael of silver.

No wonder half of the tube of sugar in the shop kitchen was used up.

Zhang Jinlan felt very distressed.

If this sugar could be sold, it would probably fetch at least two taels of silver.

What a pity.

After dinner.

The Jiang family was exhausted, so they simply washed themselves and went to bed early.

When I woke up the next day.

Jiang Fubao put all the things for refreshing the space under the bed as usual.

It is actually more convenient to take it out in the morning than in the evening.

weather is hot.

Even at night the temperature is not low.

If you leave the grilled sausages out overnight, they will easily go bad.

Unlike now, it was still cold when I took it out, but it was completely thawed by the time I got to the town.

"Grandma, are we going to buy a cow today?"

I remembered what grandma said to grandpa last night.

Jiang Fubao asked while brushing his teeth.

As she spoke, toothpaste foam overflowed from her mouth and her speech was a little slurred.

"Don't rush to buy it. Your uncle and I will go take a look today. We'll talk if we find something suitable. Tongjin, don't stay at home today. Come with us to the town. Siyin stood for too long yesterday and is feeling a little unwell. Let him rest at home for a day. Tongjin, you and your second uncle will help greet customers in front of the shop."

People go to buy cattle in the morning, and the market closes in the afternoon at the latest.

The shop closes late.

Definitely not in time.

Zhang Jinlan planned to go see the cows as soon as she arrived in the town.

But in this case, the second son would be the only one in front of the shop.

Afraid he's too busy.

Zhang Jinlan plans to bring her eldest grandson to the town as well.

"Oh, no need to go with Jin, mother, I'm here. I'll go to the front of the shop with the father to greet the customers."

Sun Pingmei held her bowl and sat in the yard to eat breakfast.

When she heard her mother-in-law's words, she stopped eating.

suggested.

"Nonsense! How can a woman go to the front of a shop to greet customers? What kind of nonsense is that?"

Zhang Jinlan glared at her and was about to scold her, but she thought that her second daughter-in-law was so stupid that she would definitely not understand the reason.

She could only continue to speak earnestly: "There are all kinds of people in Baishi Street. You are not ugly, and you are not too old. Unlike me, it doesn't matter if I am old. What if you meet a low-class beast who touches you? You know Eryong's temper. He will definitely fight back.

This is still a small matter, it's nothing more than paying some money for injuring someone, but if it gets out of hand, that person has some connection with the police or some powerful family in the town, how can we continue to run our shop? The most important thing is that you will suffer a loss! It will affect your reputation, and if you are seen by acquaintances, you will not be able to survive..."

Besides....

Zhang Jinlan swallowed the second half of her words.

Besides, all men have the same moral character.

If the wife is molested, even if it is not her fault, these men will blame their wife.

I don't say it, but the knot in my heart is always there.

Even if he is her own son.

There can be no exceptions.

In order to avoid such a thing from happening, she has not allowed her daughters-in-law to step out of the backyard since the day of the trial operation.

"Oh, I got it, mother."

Sun Pingmei was not angry even when being scolded.

She nodded in sudden realization.

He held the bowl and continued eating.

Appetite is not affected at all.

This made Zhang Jinlan sigh again.

Most people can't stand the temper of my second daughter-in-law.

Fortunately I married into her family.

"Okay, stop dawdling. It's almost dawn. Let's finish eating and leave quickly."

Jiang Shoujia, who was carrying a hoe and preparing to go to the field, urged.

About an hour and a half passed.

The Jiang family’s large army had just arrived at the city gate.

Jiang Dahao held Jiang Fubao in his arms, and Zhang Jinlan followed behind. The three of them walked in the opposite direction of the others.

When they arrived at Wanlu Street, Jiang Fubao's little feet finally touched the ground.

"You kid, you follow grandma wherever she goes. It's so hot outside, aren't you afraid of the heat? It would be so nice to sit in the shop and enjoy the cool air, but you insist on following grandma out to bask in the sun. What a fool you are."

Zhang Jinlan scolded with a smile.

She took her granddaughter's hand and squeezed it gently.

The flesh fist is soft.

"It's not hot. I'm wearing less today, so I'm not hot at all."

Jiang Fubao raised his head and said to grandma.

When she got up in the morning, she found a thin set of clean clothes next to her pillow.

It must have been given to her by her mother.

Women here are not allowed to wear short sleeves.

No matter how hot it is in the summer, you should not expose your arms and legs.

Therefore, merchants selling fabrics try their best to make fabrics for summer wear thinner.

Without penetrating the meat.

It can also keep you cool.

Unfortunately, this material is not durable and easily wears out. It will be torn if you are not careful when doing farm work, so she is the only one in the family who can wear this kind of fabric.

Grandma, mother, aunt and others were still wearing spring clothes.

Only Jiang Fubao's forehead had not a drop of sweat.

"It's good that it's not hot. Let's go and see the cows."

Zhang Jinlan smiled lovingly, then took her granddaughter's hand and followed her eldest son to the market.

"Rent an ox cart. No matter how far or how short the journey is, it's only ten cents!"

"Chickens for sale. Newly hatched chicks. All of them are plump and plump. I guarantee that none of them will die if you take them home—"

"The inn is looking for helpers. Eight cents a day. Come quickly if you want to work. We are only hiring three people. We will recruit them once they are full. Ouch, please don't push us. All right, all right. We are full. Please go away now—"

"I'm selling calves. They're newly born. Sir, would you like to buy one? Look, it's quite strong."

The cries kept coming and going.

Jiang Fubao and his two companions stopped at a vendor selling calves.

"This calf is too small. Do you sell big cows? The kind that can pull a cart?"

Zhang Jinlan looked at the two calves in front of her and shook her head.

They are all too small.

How long does it take to grow enough to pull a cart?

I have never raised cattle at home.

If it dies again.

Who should I look for?

Might as well just buy a big bull.

It is convenient for them to travel every day.

"Sell, sell! Look at this cow. It's not old yet. Buy it home and find a bull to mate with. It will give birth to a calf. It only costs eight taels."

Hear the price.

Zhang Jinlan's eyes suddenly lit up.

what?

It’s only eight taels?

so cheap!

She originally thought that buying a cow would cost at least fifteen taels.

It's only eight taels, not even an old cow.

This is also a great deal.

"What's the price of the calf?"

Zhang Jinlan turned around and took another look at the calf.
