have to go home.

Every time she thinks about this, Zhao's heart becomes hot.To be honest, whether it is Qinghe Village, Qingyuan County or the capital city, in Zhao's opinion, they are not as good as their hometown.No matter how prosperous the capital is, it is also a place that the powerful and powerful can enjoy, and it has nothing to do with small people like them.

It's Ye Zi's mother's dim sum restaurant. Yin Shi invited her to go there twice. Wherever it is a place to eat, it is a place to burn money. It is not a place for us ordinary people to patronize at all.

It was Hezhou that was more sympathetic to her, she was familiar with it, her folks and family were there, and everyone was familiar with each other.

Now that her son is promising and the family is rich, it is the glory of the Wang family. Only in her hometown can everyone know that her hard work these years has not been in vain.Unlike the capital city, when you walk down the street, there are rich people, strangers, and high officials everywhere. No matter how well her family Aqiao has achieved, no one envies her.

Therefore, she got more than 7000 taels of silver bills and 300 taels of silver that Wang Qiao brought back, and she was a little more happy.

She had never seen so much silver, and that stack of silver bills was excess silver.

"Aqiao, you know it in your heart. Did your uncle and Ye Zi count one-tenth of the Qi family's property for you?"

This, how did you ask this question?This is really not what she wants to ask, even if the Qi family doesn't give much, it's better than not giving.Zhao Shi was startled, she was so happy that she was dizzy, she didn't know what she said.

Wang Qiao was very unhappy when he heard Zhao's question.His mother really dared to ask, the Qi family had a lot of property, but those had nothing to do with him.

"The construction business is only a part of my uncle's family's income. The most profitable thing for the Qi family now is cheese. It is a joint venture between my uncle's family and the prince. It was a business that I started before I went. There is also a mechanical workshop. , it needs to invest a lot of capital, and it is a joint venture between the uncle's family, the prince, and Mr. Jiang."

Wang Qiao explained a few more words, so that his mother would not bring up the fact that he used to work in the machinery workshop, which was a normal job.

"Oh." Mrs. Zhao agreed, she is really not that greedy person, she has nothing to do with Aqiao's business, even if Aqiao contributes in daily life, but it's just Aqiao helping his uncle, of course she won't force it money.

Holding the silver, Mrs. Zhao began to calculate.If you go home on the tenth day of the lunar new year, you have to prepare all the gifts you need to bring back home, otherwise, before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, all the shops will be closed, and there will be nowhere to buy even if you want to buy something.

If she came to this bustling capital city, if she didn't bring back some rare and precious things, people would think that her family would not be able to survive in the capital city before going back, and that her family would still be as shabby as before.

Mrs. Zhao ordered some relatives and friends at home, and roughly planned all kinds of things she needed. Starting from the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, she lingered in the market every day, choosing gifts for relatives and friends.

During the two months that Mrs. Zhao lived in the capital, because she had no one to chat with on a daily basis, Mrs. Zhao took Xiuqin out frequently.It's not that she has never seen the world, but that the capital city is the place where all the people of the Great Xia Dynasty want to go, so she has to see it anyway.

In the past, she just wandered around and seldom bought things. At this time, the memories accumulated before were used.

On Lunar New Year's Eve, Mrs. Zhao and Xiuqin were looking at the fabrics at a cloth shop, while Xiao Cui followed behind, carrying a bundle in her hand. Inside were a few small embroidery items bought by an embroidery shop next door. They were exquisite items not available in Hezhou. Embroidery.

The cloth shop Mrs. Zhao patronizes is the one she is quite satisfied with. The shop is spacious, high-grade, and the store is warm, and she has never looked down upon her as a foreigner.

The cloth shop also only deals in fine cloth and satin of various colors, with many types and colors.Now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, everyone has bought everything they should buy, so there are only a few scattered customers in the store, and a few waiters are greeting them warmly.

The shopkeeper of the cloth shop was a middle-aged man, wearing a gray robe, and recommended a piece of indigo satin to Mrs. Zhao: "Look, madam, this is an authentic lake silk. Feel the feel and see This color. It means that the market is about to close now, otherwise you won’t be able to get this price.”

Mrs. Zhao looked at the cyan satin next to her again, and discussed with Xiuqin: "Xiuqin, look, which color is better for your father and your second uncle to wear?"

Xiuqin looked at it, "Why don't you just ask for one each, and see which one my father and second uncle like."

Zhao herself thought that both were good, and the price was really cheaper than what she saw before.

"Boss, for these two colors, please give me the materials for two long gowns each."

"Okay, ma'am, please wait a moment." The shopkeeper took a wooden ruler and measured out the satin for two long gowns.

Before the scissors were cut, I heard a woman next to me say: "Madam, I heard that you are planning to buy two long gown materials for two people. You might as well choose two colors of materials. Your family has one more choice. How happy it is."

Mrs. Zhao turned her head and looked over, she was a middle-aged woman with a slightly affluent appearance. Judging from her clothes and jewelry, she should be the wife of a wealthy family.Behind him were two girls aged sixteen or seventeen, and their clothes were extraordinary.

Mrs. Zhao smiled and said, "Thank you. I think these two colors are more suitable for people in their forties. It's really hard to choose other colors."

The woman smiled and said, "If you bring it back to your family, even if you put some thought into it, it should always satisfy them. Look at the deep lake blue, sapphire blue, gray and dark brown, all of which are suitable for middle-aged men."

The shopkeeper was at the counter, and introduced it to Mrs. Zhao with a smile: "This is Mrs. Qian, the female shopkeeper of the Qingfeng Inn in the opposite alley. She is the most enthusiastic. She is always willing to point out something wrong."

Mrs. Zhao quickly thanked: "That's it, to tell you the truth, I bought some rare things in the capital to take home these two days, but I was too tired to look at them, and I didn't see any other clothes. Just listen to Mrs. Qian, and I'll do another Pick two colors."

Seeing that Mrs. Qian's two servant girls were also holding the shop's wrapped clothes, she asked casually, "Why did Mrs. Qian buy the clothes so late? There's no time to make the clothes for the New Year."

Mrs. Qian was obviously not in a hurry to leave, and said with a smile: "My natal sister-in-law came to visit relatives, and I have to rush home after the new year. It may be inconvenient to buy things after the new year. So I picked up things that came here at this time, which happened to be Chinese New Year. It’s easy to negotiate the price after it’s sold. Let’s see, you’re also shopping for relatives, right?”

Mrs. Zhao had already chosen sapphire blue and gray, and asked the shopkeeper to pull a piece of clothing material each, and replied: "My son and I will also return to our hometown after the end of the year, and bring some things to our relatives and friends at home."

"Oh, you are also visiting relatives in the capital?"

"No, it's because my son knows something about construction. He came to the capital to help his uncle with some things, and he can finish it in two days. There is still a job at home, so I'll go back in the first month." Her family didn't come to Qi Jiabai Living for free, Aqiao has been busy these days in the capital.

"Building, my natal nephew is a craftsman in the Ministry of Industry, but he is a tool maker."

"yes……"
