For children, coming to the capital is an exciting place, and it is also a place where they feel at ease. Adults say that the emperor's feet are always the safest.
After being cooped up at home for two consecutive days, the two children were bored, so Lu Ziwan took the children out to buy some things.
Qinghui and Qingdai stood beside Lu Ziyuan, holding hands with their children. Now, all the Lu family's ways of making money have stopped. Everything in the capital is expensive, and the Lu family also needs to save some money to live. Although Lu Banxia and Lu He still have
They are small, but they are also sensible, unlike in Hexi Village, where they would act coquettishly and beg Lu Ziwan for food.
The streets of the capital were still lively, but what was even more lively was the people talking about the war.
"It's true that King Anxian of Mocheng didn't do what he did well, but he rebelled and made it difficult for us, the people, to survive."
"Those of us who live in the capital are considered to be doing well, but my distant relatives are in a miserable state. There are floods and forced conscription. We only have one son in the family. In the end, he was taken away and sent to the army. He is just a weak scholar.
, If you can’t lift your hands and resist your shoulders, aren’t you going to die in vain?”
"What else is there? Conscription has been voluntary since ancient times. How can it be so compulsory? If your relative's child really dies on the battlefield, then your relative will not have any offspring?"
"That's not true! This King An Xian is really awesome!"
Wherever I go, these are the topics of discussion. Now, the rainy season has passed, and the aftermath of the waterlogging in the south has been dealt with. However, in the north, there is still not a drop of rain. The soldiers of Mocheng captured three cities along the way and are attacking
At the fourth city, the emperor's soldiers finally arrived in time. People far away in the capital did not know how tragic the battle between the two soldiers was, but at least the fourth city was saved.
"Madam, you didn't speak during this whole journey, what were you thinking about?" Qingqi asked curiously.
"Looking like this, the two parties are going to be in a stalemate for a while. The situation is not clear yet. Our hometown is still in drought and we can't go back. Although we still have some money at home, we can't just sit back and have nothing. I'm thinking,
Is there any way to make some money in the capital, at least to ensure that our family will have enough food and clothing to live in the capital?" Lu Ziyuan paused and said, "Second aunt is about to give birth, and my belly is getting bigger.
Later, there was a new member in the family, and money was needed everywhere. With Mrs. Lin here, Sister He and Banxia don't have to worry about falling behind in their homework."
The important reason is that only if she keeps busy and finds something that can divert Qian Jin's attention can she not always think about Lian Guan Lang, who doesn't know where she is now.
"Madam, I think many people in the capital like puppets. How about we open a puppet shop?" Qingdai said, "Look, along the way, I saw many people holding puppets in their hands.
Where are the dolls at home?”
"It's impossible. The Luo family owns the puppet shop in the capital. If we open it in the capital, the Luo family will definitely be unhappy. But if we want to open a factory in the capital, it's impossible. It's not that big a deal.
capital, and I don’t know when we will leave the capital.”
These are one aspect. Now, according to the speculation that Lian Guanlang told her before, Mocheng has colluded with other small countries. If this is a rebellion, there must be a few percent certainty. This time is not suitable for large investments, otherwise one will not
Be careful and it is easy to lose everything. If you are alone, you can take a gamble. However, now that you are a big family, Lu Ziwan cannot afford to take the gamble.
The only way Lu Ziwan can think of to make money now is to launch the puppet bags that she has planned before on the market. It is best to cooperate with the Luo family or supply goods and make less money. Now she only
Seek stability, not speed.
Lu Ziyuan felt much more relaxed after having an idea in her mind. She thought that Lu Banxia and Lu He liked to eat dumplings. They had been fleeing for a long time and had not cooked a good meal for the two children for a long time.
I took people to the market to buy vegetables and flour for making dumplings.
