birthday?

Li Qingqing was stunned for a moment and didn't react for a moment. Then she remembered that Zhou Yimo had registered her identity information and knew her birthday.

In ten days, she in this world will be seventeen years old.

If she hadn't married Zhou Yimo, Zhang would have married her to some ugly guy by now.

Li Qingqing blushed when she recalled the time when she had questioned Zhou Yimo.

She coughed lightly and said uncomfortably, "Thank you!"

After buying the hairpin, Li Qingqing did not put it on her head directly.

She put the hairpin away and discussed with Zhou Yimo:

"I used my prey to exchange for some silver today and bought some Chinese medicine for my mother. I still have some left. Let's go to the cloth shop in front and take a look!"

Zhou Yimo was touched when he saw the Chinese medicine bag she was holding. He nodded and replied, "Okay!"

Li Qingqing pulled Zhou Yimo to the cloth shop.

After careful comparison, the two finally bought a piece of bright green, a piece of dark blue, and two pieces of light-colored linen. The weather was getting hotter at this time of year, and linen was more practical than cotton.

As for why she didn't buy ready-made clothes, Li Qingqing said: They were too expensive.

Five hundred coins could buy a piece of cloth, which could make at least seven sets of clothes, and the cheapest set of ready-made clothes cost one or two taels of silver.

Li Qingqing looked down at the clothes she was wearing and thought to herself, I'd better not let Zhou Yimo buy things for me in the future.

Zhou Yimo paid for the cloth. Li Qingqing knew that he had received payment for copying books today, so she let him pay.

She secretly threw the silver and hairpin into the space, and only held the Chinese medicine bag in her hand.

After buying the cloth, Li Qingqing asked if there was a store that specialized in selling vegetable seeds. Zhou Yimo said no, so the two of them started looking for one at the market stalls.

Since today was not a market day, there were not many people setting up stalls. The two searched for a long time before finally finding a stall selling seeds.

The stall was run by an older lady. She didn't sell many seeds, probably the ones she had left over from her family.

The old lady's stall was spread on the ground with a small piece of oilcloth, and the seeds were packed in small cloth bags and neatly placed on the oilcloth.

At the corner of the oilcloth, there were two sprouted sweet potatoes. They had not been sold out in the morning and were now a little wilted.

But I don’t know why, the old lady’s seeds seem to be quite complete, but it seems that few people buy them. Maybe the villagers all keep the seeds for themselves, so almost no one buys them.

Li Qingqing squatted down and stared at the seeds seriously.

Zhou Yimo thought she was selecting, and since he didn't recognize these seeds and couldn't give any advice, he stood aside and waited.

Li Qingqing looked left and right. She didn't recognize any of these seeds. How could she choose?

If it grew into a vegetable, she would still be able to recognize it.

But now they are all seeds, and they all look the same, so it is impossible to tell them apart.

She glanced at Zhou Yimo and found that he was also a little confused, so she knew that she couldn't count on him.

Li Qingqing had no choice but to point at the seeds on the stall and ask, "Auntie, can these seeds be planted soon?"

"Yes, girl, you can buy some to take home. These are eggplants, cucumbers, and Chinese cabbages. They can all be planted during this season."

Seeing that it was getting late, the old lady was about to pack up her stall and go home to make dinner. When she saw Li Qingqing coming over to ask, she enthusiastically pointed at the seeds and said their names.

Li Qingqing picked up a piece of sweet potato and saw several sprouts on it, so she asked, "Auntie, are you selling this sweet potato too?"

"Yes, look at all the buds on them. If you buy two, you can harvest many more in the future! Just cut off a piece of each bud and bury it in the soil separately. Water it in the morning and evening, and you'll have sweet potatoes to eat in no time. They're very easy to keep alive. Miss, will you buy them?"

The old lady was a little excited. She had been selling seeds at the stall here for almost a day, but there were few people buying seeds, and there were still so many left unsold.

The old lady was very enthusiastic and gave a very detailed introduction, without Li Qingqing even needing to ask.

She started talking to herself, which just filled Li Qingqing's blind spots in vegetable knowledge.

Li Qingqing nodded. As long as these seeds can be planted in the near future, it would be a good purchase.

Now there is not even a single vegetable in the vegetable garden at home!

Li Qingqing asked about the price of these seeds, and the old lady explained it to her one by one.

Seeing that Li Qingqing seemed to want everything, and she was anxious to go home, she said:

"Miss, I'm almost sold out. If you want to buy them together, I'll give you 300 coins in total! It's much better than buying them individually!"

Li Qingqing glanced at Zhou Yimo and saw that he didn't say anything. She didn't know whether the price was cheap or expensive.

Seeing that the old lady seemed sincere and didn't seem to be trying to deceive her, she nodded and said, "Auntie, please help me pack up these seeds and sweet potatoes."

Zhou Yimo was actually daydreaming at the moment. He wanted to tell Li Qingqing that he could finally take part in the imperial examination, but he never had the chance.

He felt that as a reserved and elegant scholar, he could not show his joy in front of outsiders, and therefore his excitement was always suppressed in his heart.

At this moment, he heard Li Qingqing say to pack up the things. This sudden reminder was like a teacher announcing "get out of class is over" in the academy, interrupting his trance.

He quickly and consciously paid the money.

The old lady happily put the seeds and two sweet potatoes into different cloth bags and handed them to Li Qingqing.

Seeing that it was getting late, the two decided to go back early if they delayed any longer and would not have time to prepare dinner.

There were no ox carts available for rent at this time, so Li Qingqing and Zhou Yimo had to each carry two pieces of cloth and head towards Lihua Village.

Although Zhou Yimo is tall and thin, his pace cannot keep up with Li Qingqing.

Not long after walking, he began to pant while holding the cloth.

Li Qingqing had no choice but to hand over the Chinese medicine bag and seeds in her hand to him, and she carried the four pieces of cloth and hurried home quickly.

Zhou Yimo was stunned to see Li Qingqing running so fast while carrying four pieces of cloth.

He stretched out his hand towards Li Qingqing's back, wanting to call his wife to wait for him, but then he felt it was inappropriate, so he shut up, held his breath, and followed his wife all the way home.

Li Qingqing was feeling a little hungry at this time, and then she remembered that she had forgotten to eat lunch.

She was so focused on getting home as quickly as possible to get something to eat that she didn't even notice how fast she was walking.

It was not until she entered Lihua Village and was almost home that she realized Zhou Yimo was far behind. She quickly stopped and waited for a while.

Zhou Yimo finally caught up. Li Qingqing saw that his face was a little flushed because he was in a hurry, and the words "face like a peach blossom" came to her mind.

She suppressed her laughter and suggested, "Why don't you also exercise with Xier and the others every day?"

Zhou Yimo was too tired to talk. Seeing Li Qingqing joking again, his face turned even redder.

He pretended to be calm as he walked past Li Qingqing and headed home.

Li Qingqing smiled, picked up the cloth and followed him.

When we were almost home, we saw Xier, Dashuang and Xiaoshuang standing in front of the house looking around, each of them looking exhausted.

Seeing Li Qingqing and Zhou Yimo coming back, the three little guys ran over like a group of floating ducks.

"Sister, brother, you are finally back!"

"Sister, I'm hungry!"

Xier passed Zhou Yimo and ran to Li Qingqing, accusing her loudly:

"Big sister! I want to complain! Yun Jing is bullying us!"

Zhou Yimo: ...

Li Qingqing: ...
