C189

It is said that winter solstice is warm, cold to mid-March, winter solstice is cold, spring is warm early.

This year's Winter Solstice was not that cold compared to previous years, to the point where the Wang Nu had already ordered someone to customize the winter clothes for him.

However, this did not let Qin Wuya relax her guard. On the contrary, on the second day, when the sky was bright, she married Silver Coin and went to cloth farm to order four new close-fitting Cloud and Cotton blankets and four thicker straw bedding.

The so-called straw bedding was filled with white bunches and reed flowers. It was not as light and comfortable as cotton clouds, nor as warm and light.

When Qin Wuya returned, and saw that the Madam Li was just talking to the Madam Lin in the east wing, he remembered that she had forgotten to go to the courtyard to settle the bill.

Qin Wuya bowed to the Madam Li in disdain. The Madam Li knew what Qin Wuya was thinking and smiled.

"Relax, I have already settled the accounts yesterday."

"With my memory, it's not good to continue like this." Qin Wuya smiled bitterly as he sat beside Madam Li and said:

"It looks like I have to find a Mr. Clerk for next year's spring. And you don't need those old Taoists, you just need to settle the accounts simply. "

"Isn't this simple? Just find a scholar in the town academy and bring him here." The Madam Li thought for a while and said.

"Scholar?" Qin Wuya was startled. "To have the free money to go to the Academy to do homework, I'm afraid my family is not lacking in money."

"What do you mean 'not bad'? Most of them come from outside the village, so their days are very tight." Madam Li suddenly laughed and said in a low voice:

"Do you know the Moon Pavilion up ahead?"

"Moon Pavilion, the property of the Cloud Prefecture's Duan Clan?" Qin Wuya raised her eyebrows.

"There it is. I had never been there before and I didn't know it until I heard from my family that the Moon Pavilion had to buy tea for the students to sit in on the first day of the first month.

The tea was not for money, but the scholars who went in to drink the tea had to make poems and articles accordingly. I heard that you can get quite a bit of silver if you do it well. If it was made normally, serve a pastry and fruit.

In our town, there are quite a few scholars, but only one or two people can take the silver. Many people only fed the pastry and fruit.

One day, he saw a few poorly dressed scholars come out of the Moon Pavilion and sell the pastries in his hands to a small restaurant on the street to make food. It's only been 20 copper coins, so it's not even comparable to working as a woman in our courtyard. "

"That's good." Qin Wuya was moved: "Sister-in-law, how much do you think I should pay?"

"There are less than two hours of work every day. Once you're done, you can go back and study. I don't think there's a need for you to give me too much." Four hundred dollars a month will do. "

Madam Li took a sip of hot tea to warm her body and said:

"My family knows where these scholars often go, so I'll make them pay attention to it when I go back. I don't have to find anything suitable in a few days."

"Then it's settled."

Qin Wuya laughed, this time she was really going to become a shopkeeper.

The new factory in Zhendong only needed to be visited in a month. As for the work in the courtyard, she didn't need to take care of it herself, and now, she didn't need to take care of it every day. She didn't need to go to the new factory too often, she just needed to go for a trip every three to five days.

Within two days of the release of the news, a poor scholar came to the door to look for work. Qin Wuya personally went to take a look, and saw that it was a scholar in his early twenties. He had a thin face and narrow eyebrows, and wore a slightly worn green robe. One could tell from his words that he had a pedantic personality.

However, Qin Wuya was satisfied with her character. Although this kind of person was stubborn, and might not have a good temper, he would usually have strong principles and good looks.

To put it harshly, even if someone with this kind of character were to use a knife to force him to do something bad, he might not necessarily be willing to do it.

After deciding on a part-time financial assistant, Qin Wuya could be considered to be completely on break.

On the first day of the holiday, he dragged Wang Nu along with her money bag as he strolled around the town for a few hours.

After the winter solstice, many shops on the street had already started selling New Year's wares in advance. Qin Wuya was a greedy person, in her previous life, she had never had any resistance to this kind of hype.

Qin Wuya picked it up and threw it in her mouth, then asked the shop assistant to help him load up the bags and buy them along the way. After a while, both of their hands were full of food.

Wang Nu laughed bitterly: "Miss, didn't we plan on going out to find a pair of silver bracelets for Young Master to use for the full moon? Now this... How can we get to the Yin Gongfu? "

"That's true."

Qin Wuya looked at the food in her hand awkwardly, but she couldn't really go back first. It might snow later, and then it wouldn't be easy to get out.

"Why don't we put our things in the hall first. In any case, it wasn't far from the bank, so it was just in time to come back and get it. If you can't, let Da Zi help you take it back. " Wang Nu suggested.

"Sure." Qin Wuya nodded. The two of them walked to Chao Chung Hall.

This was Qin Wuya's first time going to the Chao Chung Hall, so it was slightly different from what she had imagined.

Originally, Qin Wuya thought that although the Chao Chung Hall was in the town, its nature was still that of a gang that violated the law, so the location of the entrance was definitely a quiet and hard to find place. However, when Qin Wuya looked at the entrance, she realized that the place was actually at the most bustling place in the Zhendong. The two sides of the street were extremely good stalls.

There was no signboard on the front gate of Chao Chung Hall. The entrance was not very big and it did not look that unusual. However, a black-faced, black-faced, black-clothed, burly man standing by the door was enough to tell passersby that this was not a proper house.

"Girl, let me take a look."

Wang Nu led Qin Wuya through the main entrance with familiarity, and then walked towards a small path to the side, after walking for a few steps, Qin Wuya saw a row of small houses.

Wang Nu laughed: "My old man lives here. Young lady, you can put your things inside."

"Yes." Qin Wuya nodded and followed Wang Nu into the house. After putting down the things, she couldn't help but size her up, "This mama also lived here before?"

"Yes. In the early days, Dazhi was the only one who could do so. The one in the back changed the house for him and saved me from living here with the old man. At this time, it's hard to say who that old man of mine found to play chess with. "

"Is it sister-in-law?" Qin Wuya and Wang Nu had just put down their things and was about to leave when they suddenly saw Fang Da walking in with a smile.

"Mom, I heard from my brother outside that you've come. He even said that you brought a pretty girl in, so I figured that sister-in-law must have come."

"Da Zi, why have you come? Had he finished his work? Your boss has helped us out, so don't learn to be lazy. " Wang Nu had not seen her son for a long time, this time she was somewhat happy.

"What can I steal? The boss brought the other brothers to head south. I am the only one left here who watches over this place, and every day, I feel bored and flustered. I just want to do something, but I don't know what to do."

Fang Da shrugged and said, "Mother, why did you bring sister-in-law to the hall? But sister-in-law came here to take a look? Why don't you let me lead the way and take your sister-in-law to have a closer look? "

"There's no need, Wang mama and I just came over to put the items in, and we are about to leave." Qin Wuya pointed to the house behind them and laughed.

Looking in the direction that Qin Wuya pointed, Fang Da's eyes suddenly turned.

"Sister-in-law came out to buy New Year's presents?" Why don't I go with my sister-in-law. I have the strength to help with the stuff. "

Are you sure you didn't follow me out to spy on me?

Qin Wuya raised her eyebrows. She wanted to see Fang Da, but Fang Da turned his eyes away from Qin Wuya and pretended not to see him.

Qin Wuya chuckled, this brat really had the intention of spying on him.

The three of them walked out of Chao Chung Hall and headed straight for the gold and silver shop. Chao Chung Hall was in Zhendong, which was originally the realm with the most gold and silver shops. After walking a few steps, she saw a silver shop.

"Miss, why don't we go in and take a look?"

With his sharp eyes, Wang Nu saw that there were a lot of people standing in the shop, it was obviously the director of the shop. "I think this shop must have a lot of people, I think they would need a lot of money."

Qin Wuya didn't understand either, hearing Wang Nu's words, she felt that it was reasonable and went in.

"Is the girl here to see the jewelry?"

As soon as the three of them entered the shop, an attendant came to welcome them. The waiter was quite thoughtful, with one glance, he saw that the one who could afford to pay was Qin Wuya, so he laughed and said:

"There's a new flower bird-like gold-plated face in the shop. It's a fashionable style from the capital. Miss, you have to take a look."

"If you don't look at these, do you see a lock on the baby's long life?" Qin Wuya waved her hand.

"Yes, please come with me."

The shop assistant clearly did not mind the failure of the sales pitch for the gold-plated item, but instead became more enthusiastic towards Qin Wuya and the other two.

Those who had done business would know, but those who were most afraid of coming in to take a look and not asking anything would often not be able to keep such guests. On the other hand, those who had asked the question the moment they came in were the ones who sincerely wanted to purchase it. Even if the items they asked for were not considered good, they were still a part of their business.

After bringing the three to the counter, the waiter took out two long trays from the cabinet at the back and asked, "Is it the newborn little gongzi?"

Qin Wuya nodded.

"Would it be good for the girl to take a look at this?" In front of us are the words' rich and powerful have a long life ', and behind us is the painting of a' unborn sheep ', just nice for the young master who was just born. "

With that, the shop assistant took out a small, silver lock with a jade like head and handed it over to Qin Wuya.

Qin Wuya took it and looked, and saw that it was indeed engraved with a goat shaped pattern, which matched up to Xiao Bao's Life Codex, so she nodded and asked Wang Nu:

"Momo, take a look. Is this piece good?"

"It's easy to do, but it looks like it's the work of an old craftsman. It's very detailed."

Wang Nu had worked at a large household in the past, so her experience of jewelry craftsmen was much better than Qin Wuya:

"Only this amount seems to be less than one tael."

"Indeed less than one tael. Young Noble, are you not even a year old yet? " the clerk asked.

"I won't be full until next month." Qin Wuya said.

"This is it. The little gongzi is still young, you can't carry too heavy of a weight. Just wait until you're three or five years old before changing into a bigger one. " The clerk explained with a smile.

Wang Nu and Qin Wuya also felt that it was reasonable, and their impression of this shop assistant became even better.

Gold and silver accessories are usually measured by the quantity of the item. A normal shop assistant wouldn't always point to the guest who comes in to buy more or to buy more. Who would have thought that this shop assistant would persuade people to buy something suitable?

"Then let's do this. Do you still have a baby bracelet?" Qin Wuya asked again.

"Yes."

The shop assistant put away the first two trays and took out another tray from the cabinet at the back:

"Can the girl look at these? There are Lucky Eight Treasures, Lotus Bat, as well as the words' Double Lion Style 'and' Hundred Blessings'. "

"I want the words Dual Lion and Hundred Blessings. They look good, but their meaning is also good."

Qin Wuya looked at the diagram the servant gave him, and saw a pair of larger and smaller silver bracelets on the upper left side.

The two pairs of bracelets coincidentally weighed a little more than one or two, while the longevity lock cost six coins. He spent a total of two hundred and three dollars on it. The price was fair.

Outside the gold and silver shop, the three of them went to cloth farm.

In front of them, Wang Nu was in a hurry to get her master to make more winter clothes for Qin Wuya, Qin Dashan, Zhang Clan and Madam Lin. After the winter solstice, Qin Wuya also ordered people to make some bedding for the rooms. Originally, she did not need to come here anymore.

But only now did Qin Wuya remember that when she was at the silver shop fixing the longevity lock that the little guy needed for the two full moons, the clothes and bedding that the little guy had changed from inside to outside were all old objects that he had taken from Qin family.

New Year's Eve, all the adults have it, but the smaller ones are missing.

According to the old habit, Qin Wuya had planned to have her tailor make clothes for him, but did not expect to be stopped by the Wang Nu. She said that where to make clothes for the little child, it was all made by pulling the close-fitting and comfortable thin cloth. It was also not good to embroider any patterns, so it was fine if it was a bit softer. This would also save him quite a bit of money. The price of buying a set of clothes would be enough to buy two pieces of high-quality satin.

Qin Wuya thought that the Wang Nu was right and agreed. He chose two pieces of fine and soft cloud cotton with her, and another half of a large red satin cloth. He said that it would be hard to go out after winter snowing, so she had embroidered it to make a bellyband for the doll.

Qin Wuya did not know how to make clothes, nor did she know how to weave undergarments. This kind of shop assistant would naturally fall into the hands of Wang Nu and Madam Lin.

Ladies always liked to pick and pick things the most. Before they bought anything, most of the day had already passed.

When they came out of cloth farm, Qin Wuya sneaked a glance at Fang Da, and was surprised to see that there was not a trace of impatience on his face.

Men are not afraid of shopping with women the most? Moreover, the one accompanying him was not his wife, but his mother and the Lady Boss's strange combination.

Qin Wuya laughed lowly. She thought to herself, 'Seeing that Fang Da has such a good temper, I never expected him to be such a patient man.'
