The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

Jia Daoshi sat inside the house, watching the two women sitting side by side on the threshold, eating pork cracklings and whispering to each other.

It's clear that Di Qinglin ate very slowly and very little.

Di Qinglin always took such good care of Ajiu.

But in Jia Daoshi's view, Di Qinglin was still just a child.

Not even twenty years old!

People in this era don't actually live long.

Many girls, at Di Qinglin's age, already have several children.

Jia Daoshi sat quietly on the bed, watching the two figures nestled together.

Seeing the two women chatting and laughing, Jia Daoshi suddenly felt very calm!

For the first time, he felt a sense of belonging.

Without disturbing the two chattering girls, he turned and added a fire under the kang (a heated brick bed).

Then he walked to a table, took out the paper he had bought in town that day, and began to write on it.

He was going to write down all the prices he had inquired about in the county town over the past few days.

The price of rice is five strings of cash per shi (a unit of dry measure).

Cotton, eighty coins per tael.

Silk, one to four strings per bolt.

Cloth, one to two strings per bolt.

Salt, 280 coins per catty.

The usual price was one thousand coins.

The most expensive items are still the swords and knives used for traveling the martial arts world!

……

These prices are indeed not low!

Based on the current income level, it is already much higher than the modern world before he traveled there!

It seems that if I want to do well in this era, I'll have to work really hard!

After Jia Daoshi finished writing, Murong Jiu and Di Qinglin had also finished eating the pork cracklings and turned to go inside.

"My lord, let me fetch you some hot water so you can wash your face and feet."

Murong Jiu's mouth was covered in oil from eating, and at that moment, she felt extremely satisfied!

"No need, I can do it myself." Jia Daoshi put down his pen.

To be honest, he wasn't used to being waited on like this.

"My dear!!"

This time, Murong Jiu's voice became very loud.

His eyes held a resolute glint.

This isn't like Murong Jiu's style!

Not only Jia Daoshi, but even Di Qinglin was startled!

After so many days, Murong Jiu now completely regards Jia Daoshi as the person the High Priest spoke of who could help her restore her kingdom!

Now, she just wanted to see again whether Jia Daoshi had those seven moles on his buttocks!

If so, it proves she didn't choose the wrong person!

Seeing Di Qinglin and Jia Daoshi looking somewhat dazed, Murong Jiu's face suddenly turned red!

"I...I just wanted to do something for my husband..."

Murong Jiu blushed and said softly.

Although his voice was soft, there was a resolute quality in both his tone and his eyes.

"This... alright then..."

After a moment of slight bewilderment, Jia Daoshi nodded.

On such a cold day, it's quite a treat to have a girl willing to fetch hot water for you to wash your face and feet.

The key point is that this isn't the seasoned technicians in modern clubs, but your own beautiful bride. The experience is completely different.

After washing, Jia Daoshi continued to write and draw on the paper.

Meanwhile, Murong Jiu and Di Qinglin took out the cloth and cotton they had bought that day and began sewing a new quilt.

Their original quilts were already worn out and the cotton inside was pitifully little!

Now that I have a new blanket, I can sleep better at night.

The room, bathed in the dim light, felt very cozy.

……

The room next door.

Jia An didn't go home until this time.

He was just held up by Jia Yan and Jia Erdan in the village head's courtyard.

Jia Erdan is the grandson of the village head.

We can't refuse to give them this much face.

Jia Yan and his companion had been taught a lesson by Jia Daoshi and were holding a grudge.

However, it seemed that they couldn't deal with Jia Daoshi with their strength, so they finally set their sights on Jia An!

They knew that Jia An had previously met a leader of the Hundred Flowers Gang in Yilan County, and they wanted to spend some money to have Jia An bring this leader over to stand up for them!
