Divorce the bad husband, store grain fields, and marry the emperor's uncle for the second time

"After plowing the land, it's time to buy seeds for sowing." Madam Luo sipped her tea, raised her head from the teacup, looked at the two followers, curled the corners of her lips, and smiled sinisterly.

Awang's family and Lai Xi's family found that Mrs. Luo's smile was very meaningful, and her eyes seemed to have something to say.

They both asked her, "Madam Luo, what are you going to do?"

Mrs. Luo brushed her sleeves and said, "I will go to the market street tomorrow. Everyone should go to bed early tonight and set off early tomorrow morning."

Awang's family and Laixi's family didn't know what she was going to do, but Mrs. Luo was the manager, and the two of them were just attendants doing odd jobs, so they didn't dare to ask more and nodded, "Yes."

The next day, Xia Xiaorou also got up early.

She is going to market street to buy seeds today.

The price of grain in the north will rise sharply, so she wants to plant more millet crops.

After Chu Xianyun, Xia Xiaorou and Song Yanbai made breakfast, they ate and took a carriage to the market street.

There are three shops selling seeds on the street.

Xia Xiaorou went to the house she often went to in her previous life.

This company has many varieties of seeds, and the seeds are full and rarely fail to germinate.

When Xia Xiaorou and Song Yanbai walked into the shop, they found that there were also people picking seeds in the shop.

She recognized them as the manager of Luojiazhuang and Miss Luo.

"Ms. Luo, what a coincidence, I see you again." Miss Luo heard the familiar voice and turned around to look, "It's Madam Xia, are you here to buy seeds too?"

"Yes, I saw you coming in to buy, so I came in to buy too. You have a lot of fields on your farm, and you trust this shop. I guess the seeds from this shop must be good." Xia Xiaorou looked around the shop and said with a smile.

In fact, she only bought seeds from this family in her previous life.

But this is the first time in this life.

When she was in the Song family, she never interfered in the matter of buying seeds. It was always Song Liu who bought them herself.

When she saw Miss Luo, she pretended that it was her first time to buy seeds and asked Miss Luo about the price of seeds.

Miss Luo had a very good impression of Xia Xiaorou. When Xia Xiaorou asked for advice, she immediately introduced the seeds.

He also said that the price of grain might be good this year.

Xia Xiaorou secretly admired Miss Luo for her keen sense of price fluctuations.

The two chatted for a while and each bought some seeds.

However, the shopkeeper shook his head and said, "You two families both want a lot of seeds. We don't have any in stock today. We'll have them in two days. You can come pick them up the day after tomorrow."

Xia Xiaorou needs seeds for thirty acres of land, and Miss Luo is selecting seeds for her mother's farm, which also requires seeds for thirty acres of land.

This is equivalent to the consumption of more than ten households in the village.

In her previous life, Xia Xiaorou also bought seeds by making a reservation, choosing the type of seeds, paying a deposit, and picking up the seeds a few days later.

She was familiar with the process and paid the deposit.

Miss Luo also paid a deposit.

The two chatted for a while and then left.

As soon as the two men left, Madam Luo walked into the shop.

The shopkeeper saw another well-dressed man coming and greeted him warmly, "What kind of seeds would you like to order, madam?"

Mrs. Luo took two pieces of silver from her sleeve, placed them on the table, and raised her eyebrows lightly, "Do me a favor."

The shopkeeper could tell that Madam Luo spoke with a Beijing accent and knew that she was not a good person. He hurriedly bowed and asked carefully, "Madam, what can I do for you?"

"Did a lady named Xia buy seeds today?" Madam Luo asked with raised eyebrows.

The shopkeeper nodded hurriedly, "That's right, she bought thirty acres of seeds, but the quantity of seeds in my shop is insufficient. She paid a deposit and will come to pick up the goods the day after tomorrow."

"Exchange her goods with other goods." Madam Luo pushed two pieces of silver in front of the shopkeeper, "If the matter is settled, I will give you another two pieces of silver."

The shopkeeper opened his eyes wide, "Madam, you might as well speak frankly."

"I know some seeds that look like good varieties, but they won't germinate when planted," said Madam Luo, raising her eyebrows.

The shopkeeper said with a bitter face, "Madam, how can this be possible? Isn't this destroying the reputation of our shop?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the shop sign fell to the ground.

The coachmen from Lai Wang's family and Duke Anguo's mansion stepped on the signboard, clapped their hands and smiled.

The shopkeeper was stunned.

Madam Luo smiled, took out a badge from her waist, and placed it in front of the shopkeeper. "To be honest, I am the housekeeper of the Anguo Mansion in the capital. Let alone smashing your signboard, even if it is smashing your shop, we will just do it for fun."

Qingyang Prefecture is not too far from the capital, only three or four days' carriage ride away.

The shopkeeper often went to the capital to do business, and often passed by the gate of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion.

He had heard long ago that the Duke of Anguo's Mansion was not a family to be trifled with.

The shopkeeper's face turned pale, and he could only bow and say, "Madam, I...I will obey you."

-

Three days later, Xia Xiaorou brought Song Yanbai and two hired temporary workers to the seed shop on Market Street.

When the shopkeeper saw Xia Xiaorou coming, he felt so guilty that he didn't dare to look at her.

Xia Xiaorou narrowed her eyes. Why did the shopkeeper look so strange?

"Boss, are all the seeds I want ready?"

"It's all ready, it's all ready. They're all piled over there." The shopkeeper pointed to a corner of the shop and said with a smile.

"Boss, have we prepared all the seeds?" Miss Luo also came over and asked loudly.

"Of course, of course. Your family's seeds are also ready." The shopkeeper smiled and nodded at Miss Luo.

"Hey, Madam Xia is here too? What a coincidence." Miss Luo smiled and nodded when she saw Xia Xiaorou was there too.

"Yes, we ordered the goods on the same day last time, so we picked them up together today." Xia Xiaorou smiled.

The two of them went into the shop together to look at the goods they had ordered.

Xia Xiaorou did not go to her own seeds immediately, but went to check the Luo family's seeds first.

The seeds are fine and the grains are full.

Then she picked up the seeds she had bought and found that they had a strange smell.

She whispered to Song Yanbai, "Brother Yanbai, there is something wrong with our seeds."

Song Yanbai was surprised. "Ah? Is there a problem? Then I have to ask the shopkeeper."

"No——" Xia Xiaorou narrowed her eyes, "Go and get the shopkeeper out of the way. I have my own ideas."

No wonder the shopkeeper had a strange expression on his face when he saw her. Did he give her inferior seeds?

"Aunt? Why are you here?" Miss Luo suddenly walked out of the shop.

Xia Xiaorou looked up and saw Madam Luo sitting in a carriage passing by the shop.

The shopkeeper immediately stood up and bowed to Miss Luo, who then walked towards the carriage.

Xia Xiaorou's mind was slightly moved. Could it be that -

"Move these bags quickly." Xia Xiaorou nodded to the two hired workers.

She was pointing at the bags of seeds that belonged to the Luo family.

The temporary workers are villagers who were hired temporarily to help.

They moved whatever Xia Xiaorou asked them to move.

After moving the Luo family's seeds away, she instructed the temporary worker to move the seeds given to her by the shopkeeper back to where the Luo family's seeds were placed.

Mrs. Luo was just passing by, but was stopped by her niece, Miss Luo, and had to stop the carriage.

When the shopkeeper was being talked to by Song Yanbai, he saw Madam Luo coming again. He thought that Madam Luo was here to cause trouble for him again, and he was so scared that he immediately walked to the door of the shop.

By the time Xia Xiaorou had replaced the seeds and arranged for people to load them onto the carriage, they had not yet finished their greetings.

"Miss Luo, I'm going back first. We'll talk next time when we have time." Xia Xiaorou waved to Miss Luo, and asked Song Yanbai to take the temporary workers to the carriage, and they left.
