Quick Wear: The Bad Girl is Reborn and No Longer Confused

Ninety percent of the villagers in Jingtian Village are surnamed Cao, and they are very xenophobic. Even though Xu's father had moved here over 30 years ago, he still couldn't fit in, and he was never invited to participate in any village events, big or small.

At first, even watering the fields was met with sour words, but things only got better after she and Cao Xincheng got engaged. Now she wanted to break off the engagement, but the Cao family would definitely not agree, unless Cao Chengxin broke off the engagement voluntarily.

The most important point is that the Cao family has almost the sole say in the village, and the village chief is greedy and takes advantage of others. Now the village chief is an authority, and even if someone dies, he can cover it up.

At present, the Xu family is still prosperous and can be preserved, but in the previous life, apart from her factors, most of the villagers also added fuel to the fire.

"Okay, let's go to Yucheng. It's a good opportunity for Mom to meet your grandparents often."

Wang Yue also wanted to leave the village, and had wanted to leave for a long time.

No one else knew that she had been preparing for this. She sent Erzhuang to learn blacksmithing and Sanzhuang to learn craftsmanship, hoping that they would have a skill so that they could live in the city in the future.

But the eldest and fourth brothers didn't like those things, so they had to give up. They planned to save more money to open a grocery store in the city for them to survive.

Unexpected things happen in life. Si Zhuang was accidentally injured and all the money he earned from selling his land at a low price was gone. It was obviously impossible for him to go to the city again.

The reason why she wanted to move away was because she witnessed the tragic scene of the Liu family being wiped out.

More than 20 years ago, Si Zhuang insisted on going home to play with his brother. It was still dark and she had no choice but to take the child home.

The noise woke up Wang's father and mother. Although they were from the same village, one was at the head and the other at the back of the village. They were worried and followed them.

There were almost no people on the road, and when they passed by Liu's house, they suddenly heard screams.

The three bravely looked inside and saw the younger members of the Cao family beating the Liu family to death. They rushed in to help and were hit several times by two people. Fortunately, Wang's father and she were strong enough to drive them away.

When they wanted to call a doctor, they found that the Liu family members were no longer breathing. Before they died, they told the Cao family that the reason they beat them was that the Cao family wanted their century-old ginseng.

But that was just a rumor. The Liu family didn't have any ginseng at all. The group of people searched everywhere but couldn't find it, so they wanted to use force to force them to hand over the ginseng.

"So let them get away with it?"

Xu Tao's eyes were full of anger. He killed three members of the Liu family just because of a rumor.

Wang Yue patted her daughter's head. They had also complained to the officials, but it was useless. The Cao family had a fourth-rank official. How could they, the common people, compete with him?

During that period, something bad would happen to the Xu and Wang families every few days. After a few times, they didn't dare to sue them again, and the Wang family also moved to Yucheng.

"Mom, didn't our family have money at that time? Why didn't you follow my grandparents?"

"Your maternal grandfather's family survives by slaughtering pigs and has only a few acres of land, but your father has a house and land. How could mother agree to let us leave the Cao family for only one hundred taels?"

Now that several old people have passed away and the fourth-rank official of the Cao family has been sent out, they are not acting as arrogantly as before.

Since his wife and daughter both wanted to go, Xu Yong of course fully supported them. He came to this place alone and didn't have any deep feelings for it.

"Dad and Mom, let's make a promise. As soon as we save enough money to buy a house in the city, we'll move. Of course, I'll set aside some money for Fourth Brother's punishment."

Wang Yue patted her daughter lovingly. She was happy that her child had grown up and become sensible, but she also felt a little sad. If possible, she hoped that Taozi would always be carefree, safe and successful.

"What's wrong with you, girl? You wandered over to my lady."

"I'm sorry, I... I..."

Seeing that she was so nervous and at a loss that she almost buried her head in the ground, Liu Yu quickly spoke up to help, "Dongxue, please don't be unreasonable. What's in your hand, young lady?"

"It's a mirror I made at home. It's small enough to fit in a purse."

Liu Yu was intrigued. Every time she went out, she would worry about whether her face and hair were inappropriate. Even if the maid reminded her, she still had to check it out to be reassured. A mirror that she could carry with her was very convenient.

"Miss, would you like to see it?"

Liu Yu nodded and took it personally. It was about the size of her palm. The lid flipped open and revealed a mirror, with a fan-shaped comb resting in a recess underneath.

Why hadn't I thought of this before? The design is simple, yet it's ingenious. It's just that the wood is a bit inferior. I'll buy it back and have my servants make a copy using good wood.

Xu Tao immediately understood that the other party disliked the style, so she took out the rosewood style from the small basket.

The box is wrapped with gold and silver wire flowers, with a pure white pearl in the center of the flower, and there are two vivid koi fish on the small comb.

Liu Yu's eyes lit up and she fell in love with him at first sight. Every aspect of him suited her taste.

"Little girl, how much is it?"

"One hundred taels."

The price wasn't expensive. The comb box was made of red sandalwood, with gold threads wrapped around it and a large pearl. Thinking of her mother, grandmother, and close friends, Liu Yu decided to buy a few more.

"Are there any more girls?"

"I wonder if Miss could come with me to the teahouse to discuss this in detail."

Everyone's eyes kept falling on them, and Xu Tao was afraid of being stared at.

"Of course you can."

Arriving at the teahouse's private room, Xu Tao pulled out over twenty designs. There were hairpins with orchids, plum blossoms, and other flowers, as well as characters like Fu, Lu, Shou, and Xi, all made of red sandalwood.

Each piece had a different pattern, and Liu Yu couldn't put them down. She liked all the floral designs, and after much selection, she chose ten pieces and asked her maid to pay a thousand taels of silver.

Xu Taole was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. Fortunately, she had bought an extra bag of pearls when she was doing handicrafts.

"Well, how much money did you take out earlier?"

Which girl doesn’t love beauty? Dongxue also wants to buy one.

If she bought it for five or six taels, she, as the head maid, would earn two taels of silver a month, plus tips from the ladies and mistresses, so she could save about five or six taels.

"That's what Miss Dongxue is asking about. Two taels will be enough."

It was lower than expected, so thinking of my little sisters, Dongxue bought five.

As expected of the richest man in the capital, even his maids were so generous. Xu Tao smiled and watched the two of them leave.

"Sir, what do you need?"

"I want to see your shopkeeper. Please let him know."

The young man didn't waste any time and went straight to the inner room to inform the person. He came out soon after and invited the person in.

"I wonder what business the young lady has with me?"

Shopkeeper He looked at the little girl in front of him. She was wearing coarse clothes but she was calm and confident, neither humble nor arrogant.

"I want to do a business with the shopkeeper. What do you think of this?"

Shopkeeper He examined it carefully. It was novel but not difficult to make. He could tell the inner structure by taking it apart.

"It's ingenious and easy to imitate. If you have any, I'll take them all, one or two taels each. However, the maximum I'll give you after this is 500 coins."

Xu Tao had already inquired about the shopkeeper's character and knew that the price he offered was fair.

If people buy one and take it apart and make it according to the instructions, the cost will be lower. The current price should also include the cost of design.
