After time travel, I became the first richest woman in Lizhao

Chapter 81 Purchasing Peppers
Su Yi Ning paused, and said, "Mother, I want Ling'er to go with me."

"What is she going to do! A little girl who has never been to the capital, what can she do for you, you still have to take care of her, don't make trouble for you. Just take Ah Xin there."

"Mother, Linger is quite smart, she..."

"She went to learn how women in the capital dress and what jewelry to use. She came back to dress up, right? I didn't tell her that she used so much cotton to wrap a chair last time. She dared to go out to play! You can go, she doesn't allow it. go!"

"Mother, Ling'er is not what you think..."

"What do I think of her? No wonder people say that she married a daughter-in-law and forgot her mother! Look at you, you obey her all day long, how can you look like a husband? You can learn from your brother, you see How well your sister-in-law is in charge! The whole family is amiable and has never been troublesome. "

Seeing that she couldn't be moved, Su Yi Ning had no choice but to back out.

"How is it? Did mother agree?" Zhao Ling'er asked.

Su Yi Ning fell silent and did not speak.

"Then what should I do?" Zhao Ling'er had already packed her bags and sat down on the bed.

She thought for a while, stood up, and said: "Well, I'll leave tonight, rush to the capital tomorrow morning, go to Jingchen Temple tomorrow morning, and come back in the afternoon after shopping. Mom shouldn't find out."

"Is this too urgent? Is your body able to handle it? It's your first time going to the capital, what if you get lost? What if you can't find Jingchen Temple? What if you are kidnapped by someone else?" ?”

"But I can't take care of that much anymore. If I open a hot pot restaurant, if there is no pepper, then the restaurant will not be able to open, and the business will be very poor. Then... 1 taels of silver will be in vain!"

"Hey!" Su Yi Ning sighed, "I'll go with you."

Zhao Ling'er smiled, pulled Su Yi Ning and said, "You are the best to me! Let's go back quickly and try not to cause trouble to everyone."

"No." Su Yi Ning frowned, shook his head, and said, "Ah Xin Ah Zhen, you two come here!" After Ah Xin and Ah Zhen came in, Su Yi Ning said: "Linger and I will go out tonight, tomorrow afternoon Come back, you two will start from now on, one represents me and the other represents Linger. Tomorrow morning, you go to study in the study, and you stay in our room. "

Speaking of this, Su Yi Ning shouted again: "A Wang, A Ke, you two also come in."

"Awang, you will stand guard at the door of the study room tomorrow. If the old lady wants to go in, just tell me what the young master said. You have to make the most of the time to recite the book these days, and no one can disturb you."

"She insists on going in, Ah Xin, you should turn your back on it, cover your face, and say that you have a cold, in order not to affect her, please ask her to go out quickly."

"Ake, you will stay at the door of our room tomorrow. If the old lady wants to come in, you can say that the young lady has a bad cold. You are afraid of infecting others, so don't let her in."

"If she insists on going in, Ah Zhen, you put on young mistress's clothes, lie down under the quilt, turn your back so that she doesn't see it, and pretend that you are asleep."

Ah Zhen Ah Ke, Ah Xin Ah Wang, you look at me, I look at you, and said worriedly: "This is not good, in case the old lady finds out...we..." At this point trembling, everyone Knowing what it looks like when the old lady gets angry, as for how to deal with them, hey, I dare not even think about it.

Su Yi Ning shook his head, and said: "There is no other way, I have to wrong you. There is no time, we will leave now, you guys take care, when we come back tomorrow, there will be a lot of rewards."

Saying that, he pulled Zhao Ling'er to open the door, and got into the carriage in the dark.

Su Yi Ning was driving the carriage, in the pitch black night, he could only see the nearby path clearly by taking advantage of the light reflected from the snow that fell a few days ago.

A biting cold wind blew over, even though he was wearing a hat and scarf, Su Yi Ning's eyebrows and eyelashes were still covered with a layer of ice.

Zhao Ling'er was sitting in the carriage, opening the curtain to look out from time to time.The biting cold wind blew in through the curtain, making Zhao Ling'er's body painful.

Zhao Ling'er thumped Su Yi Ning's back and said, "I'll sit in front!"

Su Yi Ning said: "Hurry up and sleep, sleep, we'll be there at dawn."

Zhao Ling'er really regretted that she was in a hurry when she went out, she didn't bring a quilt, and she also forgot to bring a hand stove, now it's so cold that she can't sleep at all.Su Yi Ning must be freezing outside.

Zhao Linger dozed off very much, yawning non-stop, but was hurt by the cold air, and couldn't fall asleep.

After a whole night of patience, the sky gradually became brighter.

Zhao Ling'er patted Su Yi Ning, but there was no response.

Zhao Linger hurriedly shook the sedan chair vigorously, and the carriage gradually stopped.

Zhao Linger hurriedly jumped off the carriage.

Seeing Su Yining turning her neck with difficulty, Zhao Linger said distressedly: "You sit in the back quickly, and I will catch up with the rest of the way."

Su Yi Ning couldn't take it anymore, so she returned to the carriage.

Zhao Linger sat in front and hurried on.

Fortunately, they arrived at the gate of the city at dawn.

Zhao Ling'er came down and bought a map of the capital city, looked it over carefully, and found the words "Jingchen Temple" on it.

Zhao Linger speeded up.

When they arrived at Jingchen Temple, Zhao Linger tied up the carriage.

Sure enough, there are many foreigners here!
According to her own memory, Zhao Linger was thinking: This is a European, this is a Mongol, this is a Sogdian...

Is there anywhere that sells peppers?

Looking at the bustling crowd, Zhao Linger couldn't wait to run to the shops on both sides to check carefully.

There are sellers of spices, furs, glass bottles, blue stones, and cotton...

Why is there no chili seller?
Zhao Linger walked forward impatiently, and couldn't help asking one of the shops: "Do you sell chili here?"

The man shook his head and said, "Chili peppers? People in Lichao don't know what to buy! No!"

Zhao Ling'er frowned, who said that people in Lichao are ignorant!

After walking a few more shops, Su Yi Ning asked, "Is there any chili here?"

The man shook his head.

They went all the way to the end of the street, and there was no chili seller.

Could it be that in this dynasty, the whole world didn't grow peppers?

Zhao Ling'er was really going to be discouraged.

It seemed like a wasted trip.

"Let's go back." Zhao Ling'er pulled Su Yi Ning weakly and turned around to leave.

"Boom!" Suddenly someone ran over and bumped into Su Yi Ning.

A package of things was spilled on the ground in an instant.

Zhao Ling'er glanced back inadvertently: Chili!

Excitedly, she squatted down and picked up one and looked at it carefully. She was sure it was a red sun-dried pepper!

The man squatted down quickly, rubbed the peppers and put them in his pocket. It turned out that the pocket was rotten.

Zhao Linger hurriedly looked around, went to a nearby shop and bought a cloth bag, and knelt down to pick it up with the man.

"Thank you, thank you."

The man kept thanking him.

"Welcome." Zhao Linger smiled slightly.

After picking up the peppers, the man stood up and was about to leave.

Zhao Linger hurriedly grabbed him and asked where he was going, and whether the peppers were for sale.

The man said: Sell, but they are in a hurry and have to go back to Europe quickly.

Zhao Ling'er pulled Su Yi Ning and hurriedly followed the man to the front corner. It turned out that the man had two big bags of dried red peppers, and Zhao Ling'er bought them all, spending a total of 1800 taels of silver.

The man gratefully thanked Zhao Linger, but quickly ran away.

Zhao Linger was surprised and delighted.

This is really a no-brainer!
But he ran away, where to find him next time?

Anyway, these peppers are good enough for a while.
