Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 391 Picking Jewelry

Liu Ya asked, the price of the earrings is not expensive, that is the weight of silver plus a manual fee.The clerk in the jewelry shop said that if you have good quality silver, you can use it to make jewelry yourself.

Liu Ya thought about it, and wanted to buy something for Liu Xu'er.But it is reasonable to say that unmarried girls don't wear rings; they don't wear their hair up until they are 15 years old, and they don't need hairpins and hairpins; the styles of bracelets and necklaces are too old-fashioned.So I asked the guy: "My sister is not married, what kind of jewelry does the little girl wear?"

The man looked at Liu Ya, probably looking at her clothing style, so that he could introduce something to her.Then he pointed to the small shelf beside him and said, "Miss, look at the hair clips here, they are all small things, they look good in the hair."

Liu Ya went over to have a look, and most of these hair clips were made of silver, peach-shaped, flower-shaped, and a little more complicated. The wings of the birds and butterflies made could still flap gently. Very delicate.

From Liu Ya's point of view, she doesn't like too complicated styles, as long as the workmanship is good, delicate and compact, it will be unique, and it has nothing to do with the weight of silver.Finally, I chose a pair of hair clips in the shape of small flowers, combed the whip and put it in the hair, which can hold the hair and look good.

After paying the money, the guy packed a few things in a flannel bag and handed it to Liu Ya.

All these things were bought, so Liu Ya rode the horse back home.Because there was a horse running fast, there was not much time wasted in Guyushu Town, so it was just past noon when we returned to Pingshan Village.

Liu Ya estimated that Chun Niu was still at Xiaoshuipu at this time, so she rode the horse back home, handed the horse to Xiao Shuer, let him tie it up and feed it, and then she hurried to Xiaoshuipu. side went.

But before going out, Liu Ya also told Xiao Shu'er: "The horse is fastened, don't sneak out to ride while I'm not here, if you fall, you will be in trouble. Second sister, go to Xiaoshui shop to have a look , I will be back in a while, and then I will teach you how to ride a horse."

Xiao Shu'er was very obedient, and agreed repeatedly. After the horse was tied up, he went to cut grass and was ready to come back to feed the horse.

Liu Ya climbed over the mountain and came to Xiaoshuipu. From a distance, she saw Chunniu and Siping binding firewood.There is a lot of firewood, all bundled with straw ropes, and stacked behind the small water shop, with a height of one person, it is estimated that even if the fire is lit every day for cooking, it can be used for six or seven days.

Liu Ya hurried over to help, and said to Chunniu and Siping: "You don't need to prepare so much firewood for me, I can still ask Xiao Shuer to help. Besides, I can do these jobs too."

Chun Niu said: "There have been quite a lot of guests in the past two days, and a lot of food has been sold. I was thinking that the business will get better and better, so I'm afraid you won't be able to do it alone. Get more firewood. Save yourself some effort. If it doesn’t work, let your eldest sister or little tree help you.”

While agreeing, Liu Ya asked, "You said that there are too many guests, how many are there? I think, why don't you take advantage of this time to build a house and buy more materials to build a room on the side of Xiaoshuipu. You don’t need many cubicles, just a big room with a decent kitchen. Even if it’s raining, there’s room for two or three tables of guests to sit.”

Chun Niu said: "Okay, anyway, you are the owner, you have the final say. I think that if the money is generous, you can build a bigger one. There are about [-] guests who come and go today, and they all left after lunch. Yes. There was a group of six guests, all of whom were traveling on horseback. They were all well-dressed, and they said that it would be better if they had wine and meat. We just don’t have meat here. They are all vegetarian dishes, which are indeed a bit thin. However, some guests specially ordered mountain mushrooms, and some asked if they could catch pheasants and wild boars from the mountains and wanted to try them too.”

Liu Ya frowned when she heard this, and couldn't think of where to buy meat for a while.Pingshan Village was originally poor, and there were not many pig farmers. Occasionally, a family raised a pig, which was saved for the Chinese New Year to be slaughtered.Furthermore, the Wu family often kills pigs, but the Wu family members are of bad character, and Liu Ya doesn't want to deal with them.

After thinking about it, Liu Ya asked, "Do you know that there are good hunters in our village or nearby villages? Why don't you discuss with the hunters and collect all the things they call and sell them here."

Chun Niu thought for a while and said, "I didn't get married so early, and I never heard that someone always goes hunting in the mountains. Hunting is a dangerous business. As long as you are not too poor to solve the problem, no one wants to go hunting in the mountains. Yes. By the way, Father Gao used to be the best hunter, but I heard that all the wild game he brought was sold to other villages, and people in our village can’t afford it.”

Liu Ya's eyes lit up when she heard Chunniu mentioning Gao Daddy, but why did Gao Daddy forget about it?

Liu Ya said to Chunniu again: "Then when you go back, you can also ask me carefully, or just release the news directly, saying that I collect wild boars, pheasants, hares, and robes. But especially I don’t want expensive ones. Tigers can even be sold for their skins and bones, and bears are too big for us to fiddle with, so forget it.”

Chunniu nodded in agreement, and said, "By the way, go to my natal house to get the clothes back while it's early. There are a few families in Li's Village who hunt, and there are usually people who stumble and trap rabbits. And Li Jiacun also has to go over the mountains to sell prey, and it’s also a mountain road, why don’t we let those hunters send it to us.”

Only then did Liu Ya realize that there was still Liu Dacheng's new set of clothes being made at Aunt Li's house but she hadn't picked it up or given the money.He said: "It's fine, I'll go home and take the horse, and the mountain road can also be walked, which is much faster than walking."

After finishing speaking, Liu Ya walked back in a hurry, and Chun Niu stopped her and said, "Wait, you have been running for a long time, and you haven't eaten lunch yet? It just so happened that Siping and I didn't eat either. Steamed an extra basket of steamed buns, you eat before leaving."

Liu Ya was indeed a little hungry, not to mention that she had to go to Lijia Village, so she went back and ate two buns with Chun Niu and the others.There are no more dishes, just the pickled vegetables from Chunniu's house, and a few mouthfuls of mountain spring water, and the lunch is settled.

Seeing that Chunniu and Siping were eating very deliciously, Liu Ya was also happy for them as they had to give way to each other for a bite of pickled vegetables.

After eating the buns, Liu Ya hurried back.If you ride a horse, even though it is a mountain road, it is much faster than walking. It is estimated that you can rush back after dark.

When Liu Ya went home to lead the horse again, Liu Da asked, "Ya'er, are you going out again? It's already afternoon, don't come back in a hurry after dark."

Liu Ya said: "I'll go to Li's Village and get back the suit of clothes I made for dad. Otherwise, I'll be busy building a new house tomorrow, and I'll be delayed for a while. I'll go and come back soon."
