The county town is indeed quite large. When you enter from the city gate, you can see the bluestone pavement and the antique carved shops at first glance.
But there are still some small vendors on the side.
Su Yan looked out through the carriage window for a while, "It's quite lively."
Hearing this, Qin An glanced outside, and then looked at her again, thinking that she liked the county town, with a serious look on her face, "When I save enough money, I will buy a yard in the county town."
A yard in the county town can be bought for a hundred taels of silver. As long as he is not lazy, he can buy it in a few years.
Su Yan shook her head and said, "The village is pretty good. The brick and tile house at home is much better than this one, and the land is spacious."
She didn't lie. The village was poorer, but people were at ease.
She is willing to stay in the village, but she and Qin An will have children in the future, so naturally they will not let the children stay in the village forever.
I still want them to be able to read and write.
She added: "After saving money to buy something for the child, we will stay in the village."
Qin An is used to being alone all year round and doesn't like crowded places. "Okay."
After a while, the carriage slowed down. There were too many people in front of it. The driver outside shouted, "This is not far from Ruyi's Shop. Why don't you come down and take a walk."
"I'll go around the other side."
Qin An said "Yeah" and got off the carriage first, then put his arm around Su Yan's waist and carried her out of the carriage, holding her hand with his big hand.
Su Yan was afraid of causing trouble, so she put on her family's straw hat. Most people in the county were from wealthy families, and if anything happened, the two of them couldn't twist their thighs with their arms.
Squeezing through the crowd, I saw the four-door Ruyi Inn. It was noon and there were many people in the inn.
Su Yan thought that she would not pay attention to them, so she turned to Qin An and said: "We are eating now, so we probably don't have time to pay attention to us. There is a herbal medicine shop over there. Let's sell it and come back."
Afterwards, the two of them went to a medicine shop. The doctor saw the ginseng and found it to be in good quality, so he generously gave it two taels of silver.
"Next time you have it, take it to us. We charge more than other stores."
Qin An has been to the county town before, so he naturally knows this. Before Su Yan, he would have walked to the county town to sell.
Now I would rather sell less money, but I don't worry about her being alone at home for too long.
The only thing he cares about now is his wife at home.
"good."
After leaving the drug store, Su Yan pushed her straw hat and said, "There's a noodle stall over there, let's eat some first."
Qin An said "hmm" and led her to the noodle stall, "I want a bowl of 2 taels of mutton noodles and a bowl of 2 taels of plain noodles."
The noodle stall uncle immediately responded, "Okay, a total of forty-eight yuan."
Hearing this, Su Yan couldn't help being shocked. This was too expensive. She quickly said: "Two bowls of plain noodles, one bowl makes four taels."
"Okay, thirty-six articles." The uncle didn't say anything and responded quickly.
Qin An counted forty-eight coins and gave it to him, and said in a low voice: "Do as I say. Put more chili peppers in the mutton noodles and more vegetables."
After saying that, he took Su Yan to sit in the shed. Seeing that her forehead was hot and sweating, he felt distressed and said, "Take off the straw hat."
Su Yan took it off and wiped it with the cloth a few times. Then she looked up at him and saw that it was also on his forehead, so she reached out and wiped it for him.
"The county seat is much hotter than the village."
"Well, there are no mountains and forests here, no shade."
Qin An lowered his head slightly so that she could wipe it, and kept his eyes on her blushing cheeks.
The man's gaze was a little hot, Su Yan naturally saw it, took back the square handkerchief, and couldn't help but smile, "Your eyes are almost touching my face."
Qin An's cheeks were slightly hot, he lowered his head and admitted in a low voice: "Look at my wife."
At this time, the noodles were served, and he pushed the mutton noodles in front of Su Yan, "If it's not enough, just add more."
Probably because he was afraid that she would save money, he said, "My family is not short of this little money."
She obviously couldn't bear to eat it, but she still asked her not to save it. Su Yan gave him two pieces of mutton, "Then don't save it either."
"When we get home, let's buy some mutton and I'll cook it for you.
noodle."
Qin An took it back and said, "Eat it yourself."
Su Yan was a little helpless, so she put two pieces of mutton into his mouth and said, "If you don't want to eat this, I'll sleep separately."
Upon hearing this, Qin An opened his mouth to eat, and Su Yan lowered her head to eat. The mutton noodles in the county had more ingredients than those in the town.
The mutton flavor is very strong.
After Qin An finished eating a few mouthfuls, he stood up and said, "There's someone selling cold sugar water over there. I'll buy it."
"Wait for me here."
Su Yan nodded and motioned for him to go alone. Not long after Qin An left, a young man sat next to her and said frivolously: "My dear lady, you are not from the county, are you?" After that, he looked her up and down.
The little lady's skin is white and rosy, her fox eyes are slightly downward, and her eyelashes are like cattail fans.
He has more than a dozen aunts, but none of them are as seductive as her.
Just eating noodles makes people want to take a second look.
Su Yan ignored him and continued eating noodles with her head lowered. Qin An was nearby and would be back soon.
The young man Ning Shuyang sat over and waved the folding fan in his hand, "I don't think you look like someone from the county. You are quite handsome. That was your husband-in-law just now. He doesn't have much money."
"
"Follow me. I am the eldest son of the Ning family. If you are my aunt, you will have no worries about food and clothing."
After hearing this, Su Yan raised her head and looked at him. The man's eyes were black and blue, and he knew he had been in the land of fireworks all year round.
Her expression remained unchanged, "I want to be a real wife."
Ning Shuyang didn't expect her to open her mouth so loudly that she was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to say something, he heard her say again: "I'm not blind."
Even ten of them can't match up to his rough guy.
Ning Shuyang was about to say something, but suddenly a big hand pushed the man in front of him to the ground, and there was a "clang" sound.
Su Yan subconsciously saw the back of the man next to her. Under the backlight, he looked particularly tall and strong, and she felt much more at ease.
People around looked over, and the noodle seller hurried over and said with some panic: "Mr. Ning, are you okay?"
Others also looked over, looking at the tall and strong man with some sympathy, not wanting to offend the young master of the Ning family.
Qin An tightened his face and stared at the man on the ground, "Come here again and I will throw you into the river."
If he wasn't afraid of getting into trouble, he would have beaten this man right now.
After saying that, he put the cold water in his hand next to Su Yan and said comfortingly in a low voice: "Eat slowly, don't be in a hurry."
Su Yan reacted and looked at him, then looked at the young man on the ground, thinking that she might be in trouble, "Let's go."
There was still half a bowl of noodles left, so she must have not been full. Qin An sat next to her and reassured her, "It's okay, just eat."
Su Yan knew that he was not a pushy person, so she relaxed and ate the noodles.
Ning Shuyang stood up and saw the two of them still eating noodles, and immediately felt embarrassed, "Xiao Liu! Catch them!"
Xiao Liu glanced at Qin An. He was a tall and strong man. He couldn't beat him no matter what. He gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, I'll go back to the house and call for someone." After that, he was ready to run.
He turned around and saw someone, and immediately said happily: "Third Young Master, you are here just in time, someone is bullying the eldest Young Master."
