Chapter 95: We are all acquaintances

Da Lang took a bite of the candied haws and chewed it slowly and cherished it, constantly comforting himself:

It's okay, our family is considered rich now. My sister is the treasure of everyone in the family. Money originally belongs to my sister, so she can spend it how she wants.

Suddenly, I felt that the woman making glutinous rice cakes looked so familiar. When I took a closer look, my dear, wasn't she the flower seller they met when they passed by this street?

Dali stiffly chewed the candied haws and looked around, haha, the person making the candy was the one who sold ducks just now, and the one cutting the fragrant rice cakes was the one who sold the flower heads just now...

They are all acquaintances!

There were not as many stalls on both sides of the street as there were when they came, only a few townspeople.

Everyone smiled and narrowed their eyes, looking at each other as if they were exchanging secret signals.

I told you that we brought the wrong things to sell just now. As for children, eating them is the only way to attract them.

Look, everyone has been taken care of. It’s not just picking and searching bit by bit when buying. I buy a whole stack of candied haws, fried pancakes, buns, crispy rice cakes, and buns.

Look again, the fragrant rice cakes are also rounded, and the flower seller is smiling so hard that she has already started packing them.

Seeing that Qi Bao'er was about to go to the candy man again, Da Lang stepped up with his sword and grabbed him: "Sister, let's go out and buy whatever we want to buy tomorrow. We can't get these old ones back.

"

That's okay. Before Qi Bao'er could say anything, the duck seller had already called out, "Miss noble lady, you want me to take you to the inn."

Da Li stretched out his hand to stop Qi Bao'er, but the sound propagated faster than his movements. Qi Bao'er had already responded, "Okay."

With this as a starting point, the stall owners of the other two stalls also came out one after another and expressed their willingness to send him to the inn.

Da Lang looked at his sister with a stupefied expression, nodded with a smile, and agreed, so he simply led her to the inn and did whatever he wanted, he didn't care.

Fortunately, the townspeople in Beiyang Town are very cheap, but they are not ruthless yet. Things are usually sold at double prices. A candied haws of sugar in their area costs two cents, but here it costs four cents, and everything on the street costs just as much.

Rice cakes made from rice and flour are more expensive, after all, grains are precious and precious everywhere nowadays.

[What Daliang didn’t know was that they were selling it for four times as much. It turns out that in their place, sugar-coated haws of sugar only cost one penny, but no one would buy it for two pence.]

What's even better is that there are only a few stalls at this moment, and they all look familiar to each other. For example, the man who sold out all the candied haws on a stick is helping the candy seller move his things, and the fried pancake seller is helping the rice cake seller to carry the flower seller.

Put the cut glutinous rice cakes into the basket.

They had three, four hundred and fifty taels, and the younger sister received an unknown amount of filial piety. These should be considered small amounts of money... right?

The brother and sister returned to the inn with a bunch of people carrying people on their backs. Da Leng still looked the same, which attracted everyone's attention in the inn.

Especially the children, although they huddled next to their parents and did not dare to come closer, their coveted eyes never left their hands for a moment.

"Bao, what is this???" Li Qin, who was carrying a sack and wanted to go upstairs, was also shocked by this scene and couldn't move for a long time.

Da Lang smiled stiffly and stepped forward to block Qi Bao'er, "Second aunt, I bought some snacks."

Li Qin:???

Is this the point?

However, Li Qin has a big heart and doesn't care about anything. After listening to Da Lian's words, she didn't get angry or dissatisfied like other parents when they heard that there was a prodigal child in the family. Instead, she smiled broadly and greeted him with gifts.

Several townspeople followed her.

"We live in the room on the left on the third floor. Come on, follow me."

I watched a group of people go upstairs, and after a while of silence downstairs, they all started talking in low voices.

Except for the candied haws, everything else was either carried in big baskets or carried in baskets. You could only smell the fragrance but couldn't see what was inside. Everyone was guessing that Lao Qi's family had bought something delicious.

As a result, many villagers would look up the stairs from time to time, waiting for Li Qin to come downstairs.

If you want to inquire about Lao Qi's family, this is the most suitable person.

It's just that the people in the town have been walking happily for a long time, and Li Qin's shadow still hasn't appeared.

What is she doing now?

Count small coins.

Several women from Lao Qi's family happened to be in the upper room, and Old Qi was also talking to Old Mrs. Tian in the room.

Qi Baoer waited for the townspeople to leave and signaled to Da Lang to close the door. Then she took out five purses of the same size and put them on the table. She had already packed them in the space halfway.

"Master, milk, the money has been exchanged."

Everyone in the room immediately stopped what they were doing and focused all their attention on the bag on the table.

The money has really been redeemed. Among so many bags, is one of theirs included?

Under the eager eyes of everyone, Old Man Qi came forward, took a purse, and poured the silver inside onto the table.

There were two silver notes, a ten-tael silver coin, some broken silver, and hundreds of copper plates with dozens of coins.

Old man Qi counted it and found exactly one hundred taels.

He also had no ink marks, so he put the money back into his wallet and handed the wallet to Mrs. Tian, ​​"Take it and respect us."

Mrs. Tian's eyes widened and she was too embarrassed to step forward. She had never seen so much money in her life.

Old man Qi was the only one who knew how much money Qi Bao'er really had. He was quite receptive to what was happening in front of him. He still wanted to laugh when he saw his wife like this, so he held back his hand and handed it over again.

Ye Sanni's three sisters-in-law also looked at Mrs. Tian with different expressions.

Ye Sanni couldn't explain how she felt now. From a legal point of view, all the money belonged to Bao'er. From a emotional point of view, Bao'er's assessment was correct.

But she still felt a little uncomfortable when she saw such a boss actually dividing a bag of money into five cents.

Li Qin was just excited. She didn't think about the fact that she had a share of the money, she was just excited...

Ah, she has seen a lot of money in her life.

Qian Lanhua felt relieved that she could finally let go of what she was holding. She just hoped that her mother-in-law would quickly take over the money, and she would be able to really take it and hold it in her hands, then she would be really at ease.

Mrs. Tian's hands were trembling with excitement. She wiped her hands on the hem of her clothes again and again, and finally took the purse with trembling eyes under the eyes of everyone.

But he just took it, as if he were holding something hot in his hand. His hands were shaking like Parkinson's disease, and he quickly put it back into the hand that Old Man Qi was about to take back.

"I, I'll just touch it. If you let me have this old money, I won't be able to sleep well."

She had never dealt with big money in her life, so having so much money was not happiness to her, but a big burden. She was scared just looking at it and felt extremely guilty.

My legs are a little weak now, but I can't let her go.

Mrs. Qi smiled and did not insist. He knew who his wife was.

Putting the purse on the table in front of him, he took out one from the pile of four packages and handed it to Ye Sanni.
