My Lord, my wife said she doesn't have time to talk to you.

The next day, Huaying woke up at the same time as the first ray of sunlight shone into the room and had a dreamless night of good sleep.

The moment she woke up, she felt dazed looking at the strange roof. Oh, she had traveled through time.

She was too lazy to lie in bed, so she got up and dressed. When she sat in front of the mirror, she became troubled because she didn't know how to comb the complicated bun on the heads of ancient girls.

After much thought, she decided to choose a compromise hairstyle. She combed her hair and braided it into a side braid in front of her chest.

After finishing her tidying up, she stood up and looked at the girl in the mirror. She was wearing a light blue dress, had fair skin, big twinkling eyes, and a shiny black pigtail hanging on her left side. Huaying exclaimed that she was such a gentle and beautiful lady.

She made omelette and sweet soup for breakfast, called Fu Shiyan, picked up an omelette, and hurried out the door.

I walked along the path leading out of the village, wanting to see if there was any way to make money in Taohua Town that Dongxue mentioned. I couldn't stand eating wild vegetables every day.

Huaying was walking in the peach forest, eating a cake and admiring the peach blossoms in the morning dew. She was excited thinking that she would start her earning life today.

The peach blossom forest was very long and it took them half an hour to get out of it, which gave Huaying just enough time to think about how to make money.

Listening to the birds singing and smelling the fragrance of flowers along the way made the optimistic Huaying more certain that things would get better and better here.

According to the geographical information I learned from Dongxue yesterday, Mo arrived at the market in about 40 minutes. There was a crossroads in the center of the market, and it was very busy with people coming and going.

There are a lot of cloth in the clothing shops, cloth stores, and shoe stores on South Street.

There are drug stores, pawn shops, restaurants, gold and silver jewelry stores on West Street... Oh yes, there is also a brothel. In short, this street has the highest gold content.

Looking east, there are mostly stalls selling poultry. The cries of chickens, ducks, and geese in cages are mixed with the cries of vendors.....

There doesn't seem to be any big shops on North Street. There is a steamed bun shop and a grain shop at the entrance of the street.

Walking further in, there were a few old ladies selling vegetables they grew themselves.

Looking at the four streets with such clear planning, Huaying silently gave a thumbs up to the local officials.

After strolling around the market, she returned to West Street and walked into the largest jewelry store, Hongji. Several girls of similar age to her, dressed elegantly, came out and discussed the jewelry they had just bought.

Seeing Huaying in cloth, they deliberately avoided her, but Huaying continued to walk into the store without paying any attention.

The shop owner saw that the little girl who had just come in was wearing the cheapest coarse cloth clothes at the time and had no jewelry, so he didn't even greet her.

After seeing off those rich ladies, he turned and walked towards the counter, busying himself with his abacus.

She would glance at Huaying from time to time, fearing that she would take the jewelry from the store.

Huaying looked around the jewelry in the store, and made some calculations in her mind. She asked with innocent eyes:

"Boss, my daughter wants to buy a pair of earrings, but your store doesn't have them. Do you know which store has them?"

Miss...jewelry? I knew this poor girl didn't buy it for herself, and her words were incomplete.

The boss looked up at the girl who looked good but a little bit stupid.

"Which one? Tell me the name and I'll find it for you. If Hong Ji doesn't have it, let alone other stores."

The shop owner said with pride.

"It's the kind of earrings that are straight and blue." Huaying gestured with her hands anxiously.

She just looked around the store and found that there were indeed no straight-tube earrings. What she wanted was something that your store didn’t have, Huaying thought secretly.

The shop owner was a little confused. Straight earrings? Which kind?

Having worked in this industry for many years, I still couldn't think of the earrings the girl described. The shop owner became interested and asked her about it...

Huaying said with a wronged look on her face, "I can't describe what it looks like either. It would be better if the lady was here. I can ask her to draw it. If your store doesn't have it, it can be made. I don't have to look for it one by one."

As he spoke, big tears began to fall.

The boss looked at the poor little maid and pretended to comfort her. He thought to himself, "No matter how difficult the pattern is, I can make it for you. As long as your lady wants it..."

Before the shop owner could finish his thought, Huaying turned around with a look of grievance and was about to leave.

The shop owner quickly said, "Wait a minute, young lady. Can you ask your lady to draw the shape of the earrings when you go back, and we will make them for you."

As he said this, he stuffed three copper coins into Huaying's pocket.

Huaying said with embarrassment, "I'll give it a try. If you don't want to paint, I'll return the copper coins to you in three days."

The shop owner was amused when he heard this, knowing that the girl was sincere, so he said, "Your daughter can come more often to buy jewelry in the future."

Huaying thanked him and left, then went to the clothing store on South Street and earned another five cents in tips using the same method.

For her who loves Hanfu culture in modern times, earrings and ready-to-wear design are not too difficult.

Huaying went to East Street and bought a chicken, some coarse noodles, half a bag of fine noodles, and half a bag of brown rice. She passed by a bun shop and bought two buns, one meat and one vegetable.

On the way back, I bought the only bundle of vegetables left from the old lady at Beijiekou, and spent all the money I had just earned.

Huaying feels that money...is too much to spend.

While chewing on the hot buns, Huaying had no idea what Fu Shiyan had eaten for lunch.

As the sun sets and the sky gradually darkens, a young girl is seen walking and stopping on the road leading to Taohua Village.

Huaying, who carried the heavy load and walked for an hour but had only covered half the distance, thought to herself that she must buy a carriage when she had money in the future, as it was too tiring.

Fu Shiyan, who was at home at the moment, limped out of the house to the door and looked at the deserted path behind the house.

This woman has not returned since she left home in the morning. Could it be that she remembered something and ran away?

Even if she remembered something, she couldn't run away. Thinking of this, his frown gradually relaxed...

About another hour later, Huaying saw a person standing at the door of her house in the distance in the moonlight. When she walked closer and saw that it was Fu Shiyan, all her fatigue disappeared.

"Fu Shiyan, are you waiting for me? Haha, look at how many treasures I found. Here, there's also a chick that will lay eggs when she grows up."

Huaying looked at him expectantly, and was almost about to say "praise me, praise me".

Fu Shiyan looked at her little hands that were bruised by the heavy object, reached out to her, carried the object on his shoulders, and returned to the yard.

"Fu Shiyan, what did you eat at noon? You haven't had dinner yet, right? Here's a meat bun for you."

Huaying handed over a cold meat bun.

Fu Shiyan didn't answer and said, "You eat, I'm not hungry."

"I ate on the way here. I'll make you a bowl of egg drop soup. You can just have that for dinner. I'll make you something delicious tomorrow."

Huaying stuffed the bun into his hand and went to the kitchen.

After making the egg drop soup, she called Fu Shiyan and told him to put the bowl in the kitchen after he finished eating. She would wash it tomorrow.

I boiled some water and went to wash up. I had walked a long way today and was exhausted.

Fu Shiyan looked at the pottery jars filled with things on the ground, and turned his head to look in the direction of Huaying's room. What had she done today? How did she buy all these things when he didn't give her a penny?
