Chapter 18 Missing Time
"We're here to sell things, Uncle Gui, where are your things?" Nan Xing asked curiously, she remembered that his back basket was sinking.

"It's all sold." Liu Gui smiled as he walked, "The shopkeeper is in a good mood and gave me two extra copper coins."

While talking, he happily touched the money in his arms.

"Then how much did you sell for?" Nan Xing asked with a smile.

"Two bamboo rats cost 160 renminbi, and a pheasant 220 renminbi, a total of [-] renminbi." Liu Gui said proudly.

In the past, Qiu Ju and Chun Mei would have yelled 'wow' when they heard this, because it was a huge sum of money for them.

But compared to the money Nan Xing earned just now, his money is nothing.

It should be said that it was almost impossible to see, and even her fraction could not be reached.

When passing by a grocery store, Nan Xing said to him: "Uncle Gui, let's go shopping and see you later."

Liu Gui nodded, told them to pay attention to the time, don't go shopping too late, and happily went back to the booth.Because when he came to Hongfu Restaurant, he told his son Liu Xiaodou to stay at the stall to sell beans, so he had to go back to see if the beans were sold out.

"Hey, little lady, what do you want to buy?"

"How much is a catty of sugar here?"

"Seventy words."

"Is there a discount?" Nan Xing blinked at him with clear eyes.

The shopkeeper looked at their clothes, and smiled very lightly: "Yes, if you buy more than two catties, you will get an egg for every catty."

"How about five cents cheaper per catty?" Nan Xing gave him a disgusted look, and continued: "If you can, give me five catties."

When she first heard that she wanted five cents cheaper, the shopkeeper’s face suddenly wrinkled like old tree bark. When she heard that she wanted five catties, he thought about it and found that it was still profitable, so Immediately laughed again: "It's easy to say, easy to say, I'll give you the name."

Qiu Ju and Chun Mei pulled out the copper coins, counted and counted, but they still didn't have a pair.

Seeing their blushing faces and bean-like sweat sliding down their foreheads, Nan Xing simply took the copper coins.

Just now, Hongfu Restaurant gave her five taels of silver, plus 640 Wen. However, for convenience, she asked the accountant to give her four taels of silver, plus 640 Wen.

Therefore, Nan Xing counted out the money all at once, and poured it all on the table with a bang.

When the shopkeeper heard that voice, his face was filled with a smile. He might not be able to sell so much candy in the past ten days and half a month.

After coming out of the grocery store, Nan Xing smelled the fragrance coming from across the street, and couldn't help sniffling: "Come on, my sister is rich now, I'll take you to eat wontons."

Qiu Ju and Chunmei were also hungry. When they heard what she said, their eyes lit up immediately, and they immediately followed her.

"This wonton is really delicious." Qiu Ju let go of her stomach all at once.

"Well, it smells so good." Chunmei also ate faster and faster.

"Uncle, have another bowl." After finally getting money, Nan Xing ate very well.

The old man smiled and asked his granddaughter to bring another bowl. When the bill came, they ate five bowls in total.

Touching his swollen belly, Nan Xing couldn't help feeling: "The wontons from Uncle's house are really big, and the meat tastes delicious."

A bowl of meat wontons only cost eight cents. Nan Xing felt that it was too affordable, so he gave the old man forty cents without hesitation, but Qiu Ju and Chunmei widened their eyes and said 'wow', the three of them ate for a meal If Luo Yunfei finds out about half of the money for a pheasant, she will scold them both to death.

Just when Nan Xing was hiccupping, the white-haired old man finally appeared leisurely: "Hey, are you full?"

"Old man, have you finally sobered up?" Nan Xing glanced at him.

"...I went to a meeting."

"puff!"

"why are you laughing?"

"I'm laughing at your serious nonsense..."

The white-haired old man choked and didn't want to talk to her anymore, but for his own survival plan, he gritted his teeth and continued to say cheekily: "I think you have adjusted well these few days, why don't you go to the county government to register? "

Nan Xing looked astonished: "...Old man, what are you doing at the county government office? What are you registering for?"

The white-haired old man had no choice but to explain patiently: "If you want to undo the curse on Jiang Yanhua's face, you have to make a good relationship with your own hands, and you have to register with the county government as a private matchmaker. In the matchmaker's column, write your Nan Xing's name, only in this way can you be done..."

"It's so complicated..." Nan Xing looked sad.

She never expected that one day she would become the 'third party' on other people's marriage certificates.

Qiu Ju and Chun Mei, who were walking behind, were grinning and muttering, but they didn't notice that she was walking towards the Yamen.

When they woke up, they quickly stopped her and said solemnly: "Little lady, this is an important place in the government office, where the magistrate works. You can't run in here if you have nothing to do. Otherwise, you will be punished..."

Nan Xing was taken aback: "...don't be afraid, I just went in to do something."

"What are you going to do?" Qiu Ju asked with her eyes wide open, her expression full of disbelief.

"I need to bring books when I go to the yamen for business, have you brought them?" Chunmei asked with an idea, blinking her eyes.

The two of them were afraid that she would run into the magistrate without fear, and it seemed that her brain injury was still not healed, and she might still be confused.

"Okay, I have to wait until next time..." Nan Xing finally realized that the most basic thing to do when going to a government unit is to bring his ID card.

And here, the only thing that can prove her identity is books.

If she hadn't reminded her, Nan Xing would have really forgotten about this thing.

The white-haired old man was a little helpless: "...All right." Next time, I don't know when I will be able to enter the city.

When Nan Xing was in a daze, Lu Jingyou led Mo Xi out of the yamen and met their eyes.

Chunmei was the first to react and tugged on Nan Xing's sleeve, finally pulling her out of her consciousness.

Lu Jingyou had already walked over and said with a smile: "Little lady, what a coincidence, we meet again."

"Yeah..." This place is a bit small, Nan Xing glanced to the left and right, but he didn't see the village chief Liu Dahai, so he asked, "Little Doctor Lu, didn't Uncle Hai come to discuss with you about building a house? Why didn't you see him and the village chief?" you together?"

"I've asked other people to arrange this matter."

"Oh..." Nan Xing asked curiously again: "Then why did you enter the yamen?"

"I'm here for outpatient consultation." Lu Jingyou smiled slightly, and easily brought this topic over with one sentence.

He glanced at the sun above his head, and it had already started to slant westward. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "It's getting late, how do you go back?"

At this time, Nan Xing just remembered that the return time agreed with the village chief Liu Dahai has passed at this time, and he wonders if he will wait for them.

So, she hurriedly talked to Lu Jingyou, and took Qiu Ju and Chun Mei to the booth.

When passing by the bun shop, Nan Xing bought ten big meat buns in one go.

Qiu Ju and Chun Mei are puzzled by this, aren't they in a hurry?
