I was a famous teacher in ancient times

Chapter 157 Goods
Because of Ye's illness, the couple negotiated to postpone the start of school.

Yang Xi wanted to take advantage of the time to make the cloak, but she also wanted to make one for Zhou Yu.

The leather that Zhou Yu brought back was only enough to make her cloak. During dinner, she said that she went to the county to buy medicine, mainly to buy leather.

The next day, Yang Xi handed Zilu over to Zhou Yu, and he was not at ease before leaving, "Don't bully Zilu."

Zhou Yu held his son's fat hand, "Zilu told Mother to be relieved."

Yang Xi, "."

She was not at all worried about this attitude.

Yang Xi and the younger sister went to the county together, Mo Lu drove the donkey cart, and they went to Lizheng's house to pick up Hu Jiao first.

It is not busy in winter, every household eats late, and many people in the village just light a fire to cook.

When they arrived, Hu Jiao was already waiting at the gate on crutches, and there was Mrs. Lizheng at the gate.

Mrs. Lizheng saw the donkey cart, "I won't let her come out and wait, she has to wait at the gate."

This girl didn't want people to wait for her, and would rather come out and wait early. The more Mrs. Li Zheng came into contact with Hu Jiao, the more she liked this girl, and at the same time felt sorry for Hu Jiao.

Zhou Xiaomei got out of the car and supported Hu Jiao. Hu Jiao's feet were recovering well. After so long, she could walk two steps with her feet, and she could still get up when she got into the car.

Yang Xi said to Mrs. Lizheng, "Then I'll go first."

Madam Lizheng, "Be careful on the road."

When the donkey cart left Lizheng's house, Zhou Xiaomei asked Hu Jiao, "Have you had breakfast yet?"

Hu Jiao nodded with a smile, "I have eaten the porridge I drank in the morning."

Zhou Xiaomei, "You eat too little."

Hu Jiao explained: "After drinking the decoction for half a year, my stomach has no taste and taste. The good appetite I used to have is gone now. It's not bad to be able to eat these now."

She felt that her sense of smell was going to be a problem, and she smelled medicine all over her body.

Zhou Xiaomei looked at Hu Jiao's feet, "Keep going."

Hu Jiao moved her newly made shoes and said excitedly, "En."

The bones on her feet are healing well. She measures her feet every day. Her feet have grown a lot. The only problem is that her insteps are high, and the shoes need to be changed before they can be worn.

Yang Xi listened to the two girls talking and looked at Hu Jiao's soft face. Since the Hu family left the village, Hu Jiao's grievances have dissipated, and people have become more and more peaceful.

The road was not smooth, and it was bumpy again. Zhou Xiaomei frowned, "It's raining a lot this year, and the roads built in the county are in vain."

When going south to Xiangxian, the road in the county town was still smooth, but now it is full of pits.

Yang Xi thought that Hu Jiao was uncomfortable, "But your feet are uncomfortable?"

Hu Jiao shook her head, "I haven't been out for a long time. I'm not used to riding a donkey cart."

Bumpy her stomach discomfort.

Yang Xi motioned to Mo Lu to drive slower, but fortunately, the closer to the county road, the better.

When we arrived at the county seat, Xiang County was still lively. It was not busy in winter, and there were many people on the street. The most lively shop in the county was selling cotton.

Hu Jiao needs to buy cotton to make a quilt, so a few people go to buy cotton first.

Hu Jiao was a little embarrassed, "Sir is busy beforehand, so I can line up by myself."

Last night, Zhou Ran told her to go to the county seat to get her embroidered handkerchief. She moved her mind to come to the county seat together. The cotton used was secondary, and the main thing was to buy a gift for her aunt. Aunt was sick, and Zhou Ran said no. Seriously, she also wanted to visit in person.

This was the first time she came to the county seat. The last time she was sent to the Huang family, she didn't even enter the city gate. Looking at the county seat where people came and went, she felt that Shanghe Village was too small.

Yang Xi can't worry about Hu Jiao alone. Hu Jiao is really good. She is really afraid that Hu Jiao will be abducted, "We will accompany you."

Zhou Ran, "Listen to my sister-in-law."

Hu Jiao knew her husband's kindness and felt warm in her heart, so she stopped insisting, "Okay."

There are many people queuing up at the cotton shop, and each person is not allowed to buy more. The shopkeeper stood at the door and explained, "In recent years, natural disasters have continued, the cotton production area has not been harvested well, and the inventory is really low. The villagers understand more."

The shopkeeper's heartache, he didn't want to limit it, but there was no way. This year, the owner traveled to many places and did not buy much cotton.

When Yang Xi heard that each person was at most ten jin, she also bought ten jin with silver, and she didn't need it now and kept it for future use.

The price of cotton has risen again this year. Last year, a catty of cotton was 85 renminbi, and this year it has risen to [-] renminbi per catty, which is a lot of money.

When Hu Jiao saw that her husband had bought ten catties, she gritted her teeth and bought ten catties too. Ten catties cost 850 Wen.

Zhou Xiaomei asked, "Do you have enough money?"

Hu Jiao really didn't have much money in her hand. She felt the veil in her bag and felt a little more relaxed, "Don't worry, I can still make money."

Zhou Xiaomei also looked at the burden and didn't worry anymore. Hu Jiao's embroidery work was good, and the shopkeeper of the embroidery building liked it very much.

I bought cotton and went to the embroidery building. The handkerchief that Hu Jiao embroidered was more than twice that of the younger sister. Yang Xi had already noticed that Hu Jiao's eyes were a little red, and she held back when she tried to speak.

The shopkeeper's careful inspection said to Hu Jiao, "The girl's embroidery is good."

Zhou Xiaomei saw the joy on Hu Jiao's face, opened her mouth and swallowed the words, Hu Jiao needed money to live by herself.

After paying the money, Yang Xi went to the fur shop and went in to choose some good furs. The furs are really expensive. The 17 taels are gone, and she hasn't picked the best one yet!
Zhou Xiaomei, "I said why my sister-in-law wants to come to the county, it turns out that buying medicine is fake and buying leather is real."

Yesterday, the elder brother went home to send his sister-in-law Pizi, and the family knew about it at dinner.

Yang Xi said generously, "There are cloaks in the house, so you can't be inferior to your elder brother."

Zhou Xiaomei thought of her younger brother, "Sister-in-law is wrong, and my younger brother has no cape."

Yang Xi, "General Bai sent the leather to our family, and it won't miss your little brother's cape."

It really made Yang Xi right, Zhou Xiaodi not only has a cape, but also two pieces that can be changed!
Yang Xi bought skins, then went to buy snacks, and finally went to buy medicine.

After confirming that there was nothing to buy, Mo Lu drove the donkey cart out of the city and stopped at the gate. It turned out that a motorcade entered the city and blocked the city gate.

Yang Xi looked out through the gap in the car curtain and was stunned.

Zhou Xiaomei asked, "What's wrong with my sister-in-law?"

Yang Xi twitched the corners of his mouth, "I saw two Hanhans."

The two idiots who were redeemed by Guan Yi last time were escorting the convoy forward. Yang Xi counted more than 20 donkey carts, and they didn't know what was loaded on them. The tracks of the wheels were particularly deep.

Zhou Xiaomei reacted for a while, and then she remembered who the two Hanhans were, Guan Yi's subordinates. Brother Xixuan had been telling a joke for several days at that time. He opened the curtain of the carriage and saw no one, but only a truck.

Zhou Xiaomei asked suspiciously, "Is Guan Yi not leaving?"

Yang Xi didn't know what Guan Yi was thinking, "I don't know."

The city gate was no longer blocked, and the carriages lined up to leave the city. When they returned to Shanghe Village, they took Hu Jiao back to Lizheng's house. When they got home, Zilu was sobbing and crying.

Zhou Yu circled the room with his young son in his arms, "Okay, stop crying, why are you so angry."

Yang Xi lucked out and said with a smile, "Mr. Xianggong."

Zhou Yu's body stiffened, and Zilu became excited when she heard her mother's voice.

"Wow."

Zilu burst into tears, not to mention aggrieved.
