Traveling back to ancient times to make money and raise children is also free

After buying the land, the store business has been generating income every day. Finally, I don’t have to work so hard for a little food like before, and I’m in a happy mood every day.

We were so happy for several days, and it was the 24th of the lunar year, the Little New Year, and we gathered together to have a good meal. After today, we will prepare for the Spring Festival.

This is my first New Year's Day since I came to the ancient times, and I want to have some serious fun.

In modern times, the flavor of the New Year is no longer as strong. One can drive a small car and visit all relatives in one day, and spend the rest of the time staying at home.

In ancient times, the speed was not so fast, and I think I could enjoy the New Year atmosphere better.

I took out my wallet and counted it. After buying the land, I still had more than 200 taels left. Adding the profit from the shop during this period, I still had more than 300 taels in total.

I left 200 taels for Xiuwen, and after the New Year he would go to the capital to study, and there would be more than 2 taels left. Xiaobao had 210 taels for Xiuxiu, plus taels for his writing brushes, inkstones, and paper. There were still taels left.

The village chief or the head of the village doesn't need much to be given as a New Year gift. Just buy two pounds of meat, a box of snacks, a bag of candy, and a pot of wine.

And Granny Wang, she was the first person who showed me kindness when I woke up. Grandpa Wang is no longer with us, so let’s not talk about the wine, but buy him a piece of fabric for making clothes.

As for Brother He's family, we followed the clan leader's gift and bought each of the two children a set of clothes.

Finally, it's Jiangchuan. He has taken care of me a lot, so I can't give him expensive gifts. I'll make him some casual clothes. It's up to him whether he wears them or not. Ordinary people should just give ordinary gifts.

All these may cost IO 2, but it is impossible to save it. Well, let's do it!

The remaining five people were from the family. Since Liu Niang and Chu Liang had met and taken them in, they should treat them as family members. For the five people, two sets of clothes, shoes and socks for each person to wear outside, and two sets of inner wear, the inner wear can be made of fine cotton cloth. It is estimated to be 10 taels.

This works out to 190 taels.

It's Chinese New Year, so we need to have more food. So we buy 30 catties of pork, 20 catties of fish, five chickens, five ducks, and candy. The price of pork has increased, and now it costs 12 wen per catty. The price of fish is slightly lower, but it still costs 100 wen. The price of chicken and duck seems to be the same. Add candy, melon seeds and peanuts, and the New Year's money. Five people eat rice quickly, so we buy 50 catties of refined rice, 100 catties of brown rice for porridge, and 15 catties of flour. It may cost liang.

By this calculation, we estimate that there are 175 left. A little better than expected.

There are more customers in the morning and at noon, but after lunch, the number of customers gradually decreases. I asked Xiuwen to look after the store and asked Liuniang to go shopping with me.

Shopping is a woman's nature, and Liu Niang is no exception. She immediately agreed, took off her apron and followed me out.

We went on a shopping spree along the way and asked the waiter to deliver things to us, which he did twice. Xiaobao and Chuliang also followed us and had a lot of fun.

I gave them some pocket money and let them buy whatever they wanted. The two little guys were having fun. I bought whatever they wanted to eat and packed a portion for Xiuwen. They would stuff some into my and Liuniang's mouths from time to time.

Liu Niang was a little embarrassed to eat in the street, but when she saw that I didn't mind, she gradually relaxed. In the end, the younger one bought happily and the older one ate happily.

I have bought almost all the other things, and all that’s left are clothes, shoes and socks for a few people in my family.

After entering the store, I saw a piece of very beautiful royal blue fabric, a piece of light green pure cotton fabric, and another piece of beige fabric which was also very beautiful. I looked at them and put them down. I turned around and walked towards the ready-made clothing area.

There's no point buying fabric if you don't know how to make it yourself.

Liu Niang saw that I liked it and tugged at my sleeve: "Let's not buy ready-made clothes, let's buy fabrics. The clothes I make are pretty good. If you believe me, just buy fabrics!"

I hesitated for a moment. It’s only been a short time until the New Year. If I were to buy clothes, would I be able to do it?

"Really? Liu Niang, can you make it in time? Won't you be too tired?" I was happy to hear that I could make my own clothes. The styles of clothes in the store were too ugly.

Liu Niang: "Really, the clothes I made are pretty good. If you want to gossip, if you want to buy clothes, you can make one set each and make the rest after the New Year."

"That's fine, Liu Niang, but it will be hard for you," Of course it's fine, tailor-made VIP treatment, no matter what, I bought all the pieces of cloth I liked, and then selected a few pieces for the boys, the darker ones were used for coats. The inner ones were all light gray and beige for underwear.

In this way, the price is actually half of that of buying ready-made clothes.

When I bought it for Liu Niang and her son, Liu Niang refused to buy it: "We already owe you a lot, so we won't buy it."

"It's not even a month yet, and now I have the final say. If you don't choose, I'll choose for you. And if the color isn't nice, I'll turn you into an ugly monster. Hahaha!"

Liu Niang lowered her head in emotion. In the end, she chose the material for two pieces of clothing.

After buying the fabric and matching thread in the store, each of us chose two pairs of shoes and socks.

After buying the things, I was so tired that I couldn't walk. I was almost exhausted.

When I got home and saw the beautiful color of the cloth, I found a small piece of charcoal in the kitchen, sharpened it, and took some papers from Xiu Wen's study. I thought of the narrow-sleeved, slim-fitting Hanfu in modern times, which were elegant and capable. I don't know how expensive they are in modern times. Now that someone can make them, I must try them for myself. I don't want to enjoy the benefits that I didn't expect in modern times.

I drew as I thought about it, and I drew several pictures in a row. They were all Hanfu that I wanted to wear in modern times but didn’t buy. At that time, I was embarrassed to wear them.

When I gave the drawing paper to Liu Niang, she looked at it, her eyes widened, and she carefully placed the drawing on the table: "Madam, the design you drew is so beautiful! Do you want to make it according to this drawing?"

Me: "Yes, Liu Niang, do you think this drawing can be made? If it is possible, we can make the small ones according to this style and the men's styles! Also, I am two years older than you, so you can call me Sister Yiyi from now on." To be honest, Liu Niang gave me a strange feeling of intimacy. And her eyes were particularly clear. At least she had no ill will towards us, otherwise I would not be so nice to her.

Liu Niang lowered her head and said, "Sister Yiyi, thank you for taking us in and being so kind to us."

In the following days, Liu Niang stayed at home to work in the clothing store, while the three children and I were busy.

Finally it was 30. After a busy morning, we finally closed in the afternoon. Liu Niang and Chu Liang also came to the small courtyard, and let them sleep here for the next few days. Liu Niang went to my room, and Chu Liang slept with Xiao Bao.

We are officially preparing for the Chinese New Year.
