Escape Space: Dressed as an old lady, I want to show it badly

Chapter 23 Buying a Shop

When Tang Tang'er arrived in Xujiang County, it was already time to apply, and there was already a queue at the vacant space next to the Xujiang county government office, where two local officials were busy registering household registration.

The number of refugees fleeing famine here is not too many, as long as you show your deed to buy land within the jurisdiction of Xujiang County, you can settle here.

When it was Tang Tang'er's turn, the local official looked up in surprise. After all, most of the people who came here to apply for household registration were men.

When I opened the deed to read it again, I finally raised my head and looked at it for a moment, "Is this land used to build a house?" It is too big to build a house on more than five acres of land, and a big family in the county can build three. It only takes more than two acres of land to get out of the yard.

"Yes." Tang Tang'er answered neither humble nor overbearing.

The local official nodded clearly, and then comforted him, "It's best to settle on your husband or your son."

Tang Tang'er frowned, and then took out the book of reconciliation, "I have no husband, and after remarriage, according to the laws of Liang, the children will not belong to me."

The local official was silent, and then he was a little bit puzzled, "After the reconciliation, the woman has a difficult life. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to buy such a large land to build a house. If you change your mind, you can return a few acres, or I will wait for you." Once it’s stamped here, it can’t be changed.”

"No change." Tang Tang'er said firmly.

Seeing that she didn't let go, the local official had no choice but to seal it, thinking that she hadn't suffered after all, and didn't know that life was hard.

After she settled down and moved the four big girls to her own name, Tang Tang'er asked if she could change her name.

Changing one's name is not common in Liang State. The reason is that changing one's name was given by one's parents and violated the ancestral etiquette. After one's death, one can no longer enter the ancestral tomb, and is praised by civil servants as unfaithful, unfilial, unkind, and unrighteous.

The magistrate looked at her up and down, and then said, "If you really want to change your name, then go to the government office!"

Tang Tang'er looked disappointed, changing her name was so cumbersome, she had to react for a long time when others called her Liu Yazi, let alone the name of Liu Wu's stinky old man, she didn't want it.

I took the carriage and went to the market for a stroll. The most sold items in the market were fish, shrimp and crab, as well as citrus.

Shrimp cost ten cents a catty, and it cost a hundred cents to buy ten catties. I bought three of the unattractive Baishan fish and went back to stew the soup. The crab didn't look too fresh, so Tang Tanger didn't buy it.

Seeing Tang Tanger's eyes on the citrus, the stall owner got up and rubbed his hands, "Do you want to try the citrus? It's very sweet."

Seeing that he had already given one to her to taste, Tang Tang'er unceremoniously opened it and took a bite.

The male owner of the street vendor just saw her buying fish and shrimp next door, so he knew that she was not the one who was short of money, so he tried his best to sell.

Tang Tang'er took a sip and it was indeed delicious. She looked at the basket full of oranges and only sold one-tenth of them. Tang Tang'er bought them all in one go under the expectation of the male stall owner.

The male stall owner happily loaded Tang Tang'er into the carriage.

"Is there any more in your house?" Tang Tang'er turned around and asked when she was about to get into the carriage, and the male stall owner nodded immediately, "Yes, there are more."

"Tomorrow, I'll send someone to come and pick it up." Tang Tang'er said and drove away in the carriage.

The male stall owner thought he heard it wrong, so he pushed his daughter-in-law, "I heard it right!"

Tang Tang'er has a plan in mind, since she wants to do some small business experiments in the town, it's better to sell some strange things that don't exist in the town.

Tang Tang'er poured out a large bag of sunflower seeds from the space, and bought corn, white sugar, etc., and bought fish gelatin at the pharmacy, and returned with a full load.

When he got to the place where he was separated from them, he could see Mo Feng standing there waiting from a distance, and the second idiot was running back and forth with a cake in his mouth.

Mo Feng and Er Fool sat on both sides of the carriage, Mo Feng said, "The rented yard is not too big, but I specially reserved a separate room for the Lord."

Tang Tang'er hummed, then opened the curtain, Mo Feng, tomorrow you can go and find out if there is a smaller shop to rent first. "

"Okay." Mo Feng replied in one gulp.

The six little ones were playing in the yard, while Mrs. Liu and Liu Erqiao were cleaning up.

When Tang Tanger came back, the yard had been cleaned up. As soon as Tang Tanger came back, several little guys rushed over.

"Grandma, look at this, I found it in the yard." Daniu showed off the small wooden dragonfly in his hand, showing it to Tang Tang'er as if offering a treasure.

"Grandma, I want it too." Sanya curled her lips, "Brother Big Niu is so stingy, just let us take a look."

"Nonsense, it's always been in your hands."

Seeing that the two people with loud voices were about to quarrel, Tang Tang'er looked helpless, "May I make you some flying things after dinner?"

"Really? Milk." Er Niu was immediately attracted.

Tang Tanger nodded, it should be quite simple to make a few bamboo dragonflies!Even if you don't have bamboo, you can make it with wood.

Tang Tang'er brought the prawns and fish over, and Mo Feng brought down the rest of the carriage.

The little ones salivate at the sight of the citrus.

Tang Tang'er chuckled lightly, "Take one and eat first, and I'll make more delicious ones for you guys later."

Only then did the little guys swarm up, and then gave one to Mrs. Liu and Liu Erqiao, and Tang Tang'er's was naturally indispensable.

Er Niu gave Er Idiot one, but Er Idiot refused to take it. As soon as Da Niu came to grab it, Er Idiot also grabbed it.

Tang Tanger looked at it for a while and ignored it. Baishan fish has been the best material for stewing soup since ancient times. Not only is the meat delicious, but the fish bones are large and small, and it is most suitable for the little ones.

There are many ways to make shrimp. Tang Tanger likes to eat steamed shrimp with garlic vermicelli. The vermicelli here is still very thick, but it should be boiled until soft and then steamed. The taste should not be affected too much.

Let’s make another food that the little ones will like, golden anchovy shrimp. There is no bread crumbs here, so flour and cornmeal are used instead. The outside is golden and crispy, and the inside is tender and refreshing.

Another dish of green vegetables was fried. The green vegetables were taken out by Tang Tang'er from the space. They were very juicy, and they tasted much better than the green vegetables outside.

Everyone sat around to eat together, Mo Feng wanted to move a small bench to eat in the corner, but Tang Tang'er called him over to eat together.

No matter how delicious it is, the second idiot has no interest in it, he only cares about eating big pancakes by himself.

Everyone who ate this meal enjoyed it, especially the five catties of golden anchovy shrimp, which the little ones ate up all the scum left on the bottom of the plate.

"Grandma, I still want to eat tomorrow." Sanya pouted.

Si Ya kept nodding beside her, she didn't say eat or not, anyway, when she was eating, she just buried her head in eating hard, maybe if she said more words, she would eat less.

"You can eat one dish a day without getting tired." Tang Tang'er touched Sanya's head, and then called Mo Feng to follow her instructions to make bamboo dragonflies.

Mo Feng is really a child can teach!As long as Tang Tang'er said it once, he would be able to understand her meaning and reproduce it perfectly.

Made six bamboo dragonflies, one for each of the little ones.

Tang Tang'er asked Mo Feng to make some cute molds, such as little rabbits, foxes and turtles, and made more than 20 styles of them.

Tang Tang'er was nodding in satisfaction, when she heard a cry, Sanya cried heart-piercingly.

Tang Tang'er thought something serious happened, but Er Fool stretched out his hand and snatched Sanya's bamboo dragonfly, while playing happily.

Tang Tang'er helped Fu's forehead, Mo Feng quickly went up to snatch it, and then the second idiot cried terribly.

One big and one small voices came and went, Tang Tang'er's brain hurts from crying, what a fool!Isn't this a child?

"Okay, okay, it's too noisy! If you cry again, I'll throw you all out!" Tang Tang'er rolled her eyes, then ignored it, turned around and prepared to take out the citrus, and scrub the skin with salt.

The second idiot couldn't understand, but luckily she stopped crying as soon as the big pancakes came out, and Sanya couldn't stop crying, and the bamboo dragonfly was brought to her, but she was still crying and said that the bamboo dragonfly was dirty, new.

Mo Feng struggled for a moment, then brought Sanya to Tang Tang'er.

"Grandma, woo woo woo~" Sanya rushed over and cried out of breath, sobbing.

Tang Tang'er pulled her out, and then turned the bamboo dragonfly, and the bamboo dragonfly flew into the sky, "You know if you're playing like this."

Sanya stopped crying and nodded quickly.

Only then did the remaining little ones learn to play, and they played together again in an instant.

Liu Erqiao came to help Tang Tang'er scrub the citrus, and Tang Tang'er soaked the isinglass bought from the pharmacy in hot water.

The citrus with the peel is far more delicious than the pure fruit, so Tang Tanger cut all of them into small pieces, then added sugar and clear spring water, fried all the water, and then used gauze Filter the residue and leave the juice, then add the soaked isinglass and put it in a mold to cool.

After making several pots in a row, I got more than 40 cans of orange jelly, and each of the little guys got a can. The precious ones are like something.

They have never eaten this kind of candy, it is soft, sour and sweet.

Tang Tang'er fried a handful of melon seeds, gave them a taste, and made original popcorn.

The food bombardment made the little guys feel dizzy, and even when they were sleeping, they wondered if they were dreaming.

Apart from the orange jelly, she didn't make much fried melon seeds and popcorn Tangtang, and she threw the orange jelly into the space to keep it fresh.

When Tang Tang'er woke up in the morning, Mo Feng had already looked at two places and was waiting for Tang Tang'er to visit.

Tang Tang'er went to see it after breakfast. The first one was not far from the rented yard. It was a small shop of [-] square meters. It used to be a bookstore, but it was surrounded by booksellers If the run cannot continue, it must be transferred.

Tang Tang'er made the decision at a glance, and didn't even go to the second house.

It’s already December now, and the Chinese New Year is not far away. This place is the best place to sell New Year’s goods, and most of the people who buy books are scholars or rich people. Naturally, they will buy some rare things.

Tang Tang'er confirmed the location, after negotiating, he finally bought it for 100 taels of silver.

Tang Tang'er thought about a little decoration, and the house in Tianhe Village should start construction as soon as possible. Where to find reliable people is a problem.

So Tang Tanger went to Tianhe Village, this is the second time Tang Tanger came to Gu Laoliu's house.

It was Mrs. Lin who came out to greet her. With an embarrassed face, she warmly welcomed Tang Tang'er into the room, and brought over a glass of sugar water coyly. Now a glass of sugar water is already the highest standard for entertaining guests.

"Big sister, I'm really sorry, I, I was also frightened by what happened before." Lin sighed slightly, "You don't know, my guy was outside..."

"Okay, okay, what are you talking about after so long?" Gu Laoliu immediately stopped her when he heard this, wasn't he just fascinated by ghosts for a while?As for the fact that he has rectified after such a long time, Mrs. Lin is still holding on to it, and suspects him whenever there is a little trouble?
Tang Tang'er smiled and expressed her understanding. Whenever a man cheats for the first time, there will be a second time. She understands Lin's state but disagrees. Obviously, the education Tang Tang'er received since she was a child cannot accept a man's cheating once. Unfaithful, simply although she has never been in love, she still has no plans to get married here.

"Big sister, you have something to do!" Gu Laoliu wanted to try his best to restore his dignity.

"Yes, I want to ask the village chief if there are any good house builders in our village." Tang Tang'er didn't beat around the bush, and Gu Lao Liu could guess that they bought the land and started building houses.

"Then you are asking the right person." Gu Laoliu said hastily, "Zhou Laizi is the best carpenter in our village, and the house he built is a good one. My house was built by him."

Tang Tang'er looked at Gu Lao Liu's house, looked around and looked at the well-regulated house, she thought for a while, "Can you call him over, I'm afraid the house I want to build is a bit difficult."

Gu Laoliu nodded quickly. He wanted Lin to call, but he was afraid that there would be a misunderstanding, so he simply ran over and called.

"Sister-in-law, do you have a pen, ink, paper and inkstone? I want to draw a picture." Tang Tang'er was the first to be unprepared, and only remembered now.

Lin nodded quickly, and went to that room to bring her son's pen, ink, paper and inkstone to Tang Tang'er.

Tang Tang'er spread out the rice paper and began to paint on it.

When Gu Lao Liu brought Zhou Laizi over, Tang Tang'er hadn't finished painting.

Zhou Laizi stepped forward hesitantly to see what she was painting, his face was full of shock, what is this?Such an exquisite house?
Tang Tang'er didn't notice him. After finishing the painting, he saw Zhou Laizi with a shocked face behind him. He was the strong and strong man holding a bowl of thick wood yesterday.

"Can it be done?" Tang Tanger asked calmly.

Zhou Laizi swallowed, "This..." It's really difficult!But you can also try it!
"That's it." Tang Tang'er drew another sketch with difficulty, "I bought a shop in the town, you can try this first, if it's done well, we'll talk about the house."

"Okay!" Zhou Laizi replied straight away, it was much simpler and easier to make than a house.

"You need to find a few more people! How much do you pay per day? It doesn't matter what you eat." Tang Tanger asked.

"Sixty Wen a day regardless of food." Zhou Laizi said.

"Okay, then it's settled." Tang Tang'er agreed.

After Tang Tang'er left, Zhou Laizi asked with a puzzled face, "Why does this aunt have so much money?"

"Maybe it belongs to a rich family!" Gu Laoliu was also puzzled, and he took out 25 taels of silver casually, and at least one or two hundred taels of silver was needed to buy a shop in the town.
