Escape from the famine at the beginning: I rely on space to spoil Lord Shoufu

Chapter 132 Don't read it if you can't afford it

So Taoxi and the others greeted Wang Zhou before leaving, and the family drove an ox cart to Yun County.

On the bullock cart, Tao Xi and Jian Shiming sat at the front, and the third sibling sat at the back. Jian Shiming asked softly:

"Did you make wild vegetable porridge on purpose?"

"You see through and ask me."

Tao Xi glanced at Jian Shiming angrily. This guy knows everything, but he still has to ask. Sometimes it's quite annoying.

Jian Shiming just laughed: "I just want to confirm, if you don't want to say it, it doesn't matter if you don't say it."

"Harmful."

Tao Xi explained: "I don't want Gu Yan to know what our family eats, and you also know our living standard.

What if he thought that the refugees were eating so well and didn't care about helping them? "

Tao Xi didn't want to cause such a big misunderstanding. After all, Gu Yan was a young master and had never really come into contact with refugees. The only one who came closer was their family.

Sensing her exquisite thoughts, Jian Shiming felt a strange sense of admiration in his heart.

It's because he has a small structure, he always thinks about how to protect their family, but she is already thinking about other refugees.

"You are very smart, and I thank you for the other refugees."

"Fifty points."

Oh Yo, the hero is so handsome when he is serious!

Tao Xi was delighted to receive the points, "You're welcome, you're welcome, it's all a matter of effort."

It can also save a meal, which is very worthwhile.

The two chattered all the way, and soon arrived in Yun County. Seeing the depression in the city, the excited children suddenly lost their interest in the morning.

"It turns out that's how it was in the city."

Jian Erni sighed helplessly, there was no one on the street, it was so deserted, it was really boring.

Jian Shiyi rolled his big eyes and shook his head regretfully.

"Nothing at all."

"You see, Yun County is very different from before."

Tao Xi knew that they wouldn't give up if they didn't bring them here. Now that they knew the situation in Yun County, everyone had no desire to continue shopping.

"Wait a little longer, we can all return to normal next year."

Jian Shiming looked up at the empty street, with some helplessness in his eyes.

"Sanggong, when I came last time, I remembered that there was a family bookstore in front of me. I will take you to have a look."

Things like books have become less valuable at this moment, but they are very important things to Jian Shiming.

Several people parked the ox cart not far from the book shop, and Tao Xi brought them in. There were quite a few books in the book shop, not too few.

It's just that it was very depressed inside, and there were almost no customers. One of the shopkeepers sat there in a daze, and greeted them weakly when he saw them.

"Find what you need, check out here."

"Master, just watch, I'll go ahead and have a look."

Tao Xi was thinking about other things, Jian Shiming understood her, and winked at Jian Erni who wanted to follow, and everyone nodded.

So Tao Xi successfully escaped from the book shop, found a deserted alley and pretended to be the same as last time, and then picked up a load of cabbage from the space, and the cabbage was covered with a coarse cloth to cover it.

It's not far from the East Street, and after walking for less than a quarter of an hour, Taoxi arrived at Qian's Mansion. Now it's a famine year, and there are not many servants left by the rich family.

Tao Xi knocked on the door, and Steward Qian's head appeared from inside. Seeing that it was Tao Xi, he immediately smiled.

"Big girl, it's you."

"Brother Qian."

Tao Xi pointed at the burden on the ground, and whispered, "Can I go in?"

"Come in. Come in."

Steward Qian took Tao Xi into the side room at the gate, where he usually lives so that he can receive guests conveniently.

"Brother, aren't you the housekeeper?"

Tao Xi was a little confused, why are you still taking out the door?
Her eyes were so obvious that Steward Qian understood what she meant immediately and sighed.

"There is no way, these years are difficult, the Qian family is not even considered a wealthy household in Yun County, and the master cannot afford to support too many servants.

No, except for those who signed the death contract, they were all let go, and I personally guarded the door for the master.

Big sister, quickly show me what good things you brought. "

"It's really a good thing, it depends on whether the eldest brother can take a fancy to it."

Tao Xi mysteriously lifted the coarse cloth covering the burden, revealing the juicy Chinese cabbage inside.

The money stewards are stupid!

He stared blankly at the Chinese cabbage, and rubbed his eyes in disbelief, why is it still there?

He grabbed himself again, it hurts, it's not a dream!
Steward Qian gave Tao Xi a thumbs up in admiration, "Big... big sister, you are amazing!"

Looking at the entire Yun County, there are only a handful of people who can get this thing!
"Brother Qian, just say whether you want it or not?"

Tao Xi thought to herself, she piled a lot of Chinese cabbage in the space, this is just a trivial matter for her.

But for Steward Qian who hasn't eaten such fresh Chinese cabbage for a long time, isn't it very strange.

"Yes, why not!"

Steward Qian was so excited that he couldn't help himself, "Not only do I want it, but I want it all!"

He confessed to Tao Xi: "Big sister, wait for me, I'll find the accountant to pay the money!"

He doesn't have that much money on hand.

"it is good."

Tao Xi wasn't angry either, she just found a place to sit and wait, she believed that Steward Qian would be there soon.

He was really fast, afraid that Tao Xi would run away, so he hurried over and came over with a money bag.

"Big sister, I won't tell you the truth, this ingot of gold ingot buys this load of cabbage."

Putting it forward, this Chinese cabbage is not so valuable, who said that things are so rare now.

Tao Xi accepted it with a smile, "Brother Qian is generous, next time I have the goods, I will send them to you."

She just likes to deal with straightforward people, and she doesn't even need to talk about the price.

"Okay, okay, master knows that I have bought so many good things, and you have to reward me if you specify. Don't worry, it's not expensive."

Steward Qian knew very well that if the master got Chinese cabbage, he would definitely have to give some to his relatives. This was all a matter of face.

The two agreed that Tao Xi left Qian's mansion, and quickly found a place to change back into his clothes. When they came to the book shop, Jian Shiming and the others picked out a few books.

At this moment, Jian Erni was shaking her head, "Brother, I won't buy it, just follow along and watch."

What she held in her hand was a script, and it was difficult for everyone nowadays, if she bought a script, it would be too wasteful.

Jian Shiming frowned, "If you like it, then buy it."

"No."

Jian Erni reluctantly put the script back, leaving the shopkeeper speechless.

Seeing that the family was wearing coarse linen clothes, he was already a little impatient, and said immediately:
"Forget it, don't read it if you can't afford it."

He's annoying enough, these kids are still playing with him!

"purchase."

Tao Xi strode in, put together all the books selected by Jian Shiming and his younger siblings, and said to the stunned shopkeeper:

"Shopkeeper, how much money in total?"

The whole shopkeeper was dumbfounded, he looked at Tao Xi in disbelief:

"Little lady, are you sure you want to buy so many?"
