"Xue'er, what are you going to town for?" Ke Mengshi asked, isn't this granddaughter going to town too often?
Ke Mengshi was thinking that if one more person went to the town, the son would take one less person, and earn six cents less every time he came and went.

"Grandma, I'll go to the town to see if there are any opportunities to make money!" Ke Hanxue blinked and smiled, seeming to be joking.

"Mom, if the child wants to go, let her go!" Ke Shuisheng said with a smile.

Ke Shuisheng can earn more than 90 yuan a day now, so what's wrong with making a little less money to make his daughter happy?
Seeing that his son had said that, Ke Mengshi smiled and shook his head, there was nothing he could do about the father and daughter.

The next day, Ke Shuisheng and his daughter came to the entrance of the village with an ox cart, and saw seven or eight people standing under the mulberry tree, including Ge Shi.

"Ms. Ge, are you going to town too?" Ke Hanxue jumped out of the car and helped her up.

Ke Hanxue always remembered that Ge Shi had helped her.

"No, now that your father has an ox cart, I don't have to go to Xiangshui Village to take a cart." Ge Shi said hello to Ke Shuisheng again.

"Aunt Ge, are you going to the town to see Mr. Ge?" Ke Shuisheng asked with a smile. Ge Yunzhang just went to the town in his car yesterday, and he hasn't come back yet.

Everyone in the village knows that Ge Yunzhang goes to the town every month to help restaurants and drugstores settle accounts.

"I didn't go to see Yunzhang. I just saw that the day was getting hotter and hotter. I wanted to go to the town to make two sets of thin shirts for Yunzhang. He often went in and out of the town, so he had to make two decent clothes." Ge Said with a smile.

"What is Xue'er going to the town to buy?" Ge Shi asked again.

"I just went shopping and didn't buy anything." Ke Hanxue smiled.

Ge Shi also smiled, didn't say anything, just stared at Ke Hanxue with a smile.

"Ms. Ge, why are you looking at me like that?" Ke Hanxue felt a little uncomfortable when she saw her.

"Xue'er, I feel that you have been dark and thin recently." Geshi said seriously.

Ke Hanxue was taken aback, reached out and touched her face, and said with a smile: "Maybe, I've been busy with the fields these days, and the sun has been shining more."

"Xue'er, I heard that you rented land to grow rice. You are such a capable girl!" There was a perceptible smile in Ge Shi's eyes, and the whole Shuihe Village was spreading the word that Ke Shuisheng's family rented land to grow rice. and the way their family grows rice has been made fun of by many people.

But Ge Shi didn't mean to laugh at their family, her future daughter-in-law is capable and hardworking, she is too late to be happy.

But Ke Shuisheng frowned worriedly after hearing Ge Shi's words, and turned around to explain to Ge Shi: "Sister Ge, I asked Xueer to go to the field to help."

"Brother Shuisheng, I don't mean to dislike Xue'er, so don't think too much about it." Ge Shi couldn't help laughing after hearing the worry in Ke Shuisheng's words.

Ke Shuisheng scratched his head with one hand, and laughed along with embarrassment. He was also worried that if Ge Shi knew about his daughter's going to the field, his daughter would be underestimated. It seemed that he was worrying too much.

Ke Hanxue felt a little speechless when she heard the conversation between the two, but she couldn't tell them that she and Ge Yunzhang had divorced, so she could only pretend to be stupid and pretend to chat with other people in the car.

When they arrived in the town, Ge Shi and other villagers got off the car at the intersection of the street, said a few words with Ke Shuisheng and his daughter, and then went to the market.

Ke Hanxue and Ke Shuisheng went to the spinning room first to settle their lunch before returning to the market.

Ke Shuisheng put Ke Hanxue down and went to "Zhou Ji". Ke Hanxue has been to the town so many times, so she knows exactly which shops are in the town.

Ke Hanxue came to a restaurant in the center of the street with a clear goal, and looked up at the restaurant's signboard "Fulin Restaurant".

The best wine in Xiangsang Town comes from this restaurant, so Ke Hanxue walked in without hesitation, and the quality of the wine she wanted should not be too bad.

"This girl, are you going to drink for your father?"

As soon as Ke Hanxue entered the restaurant, a waiter came up to him and asked.

The restaurants in this dynasty are all operating in a combination of retail, wholesale and restaurants. It was noon at this time, and there were many customers in the restaurant, but as soon as Ke Renhanxue entered the restaurant, the waiter came forward to greet him.

This restaurant has a good business and sufficient manpower, so that every guest who enters the restaurant feels valued.

"Brother, how do you sell the wine here?" Ke Hanxue asked with a sweet smile.

"Is it the first time for the girl to drink?" Xiaoer asked with a smile.

"How does little brother know?" Ke Hanxue was slightly surprised. There are so many people coming and going in and out of this restaurant every day, can this little girl remember everyone's faces?
"Because everyone who has been to our restaurant knows that the wine in our restaurant is divided into two prices, one is ordinary wine, which costs twelve cents a catty, and the other is used by wealthy families to entertain guests. Liquor costs sixty Wen a catty." Xiaoer said.

"The price difference between the two wines is so far?" Ke Hanxue was speechless.

And the price of a catty of ordinary wine can almost buy a catty of rice, no wonder she didn't hear anyone drinking in the village.

The waiter in the shop smiled and said, "Girl, only rich businessmen and local wealthy families will buy this second price of wine. People who usually come to the restaurant to eat and drink wine usually drink this kind of wine." cheap."

Hearing the introduction from the waiter in the shop, Ke Hanxue lowered his head and thought for a while, then pretended that he had never seen the world and looked at the waiter with bright eyes: "Brother, are there many big families in our town? Anyone buy it?"

Hearing Ke Hanxue's question, the waiter in the shop laughed and said patiently: "Little girl, there are quite a few big families in our town, and there are also some rich people who come to Linzhen for their fame. For some wealthy businessmen who come to our town to purchase, the supply of good wine here is in short supply."

"Brother, according to what you say, your restaurant must be able to sell a lot of this good wine in a month?" Ke Hanxue stared at the waiter with innocent and curious black eyes.

"Hehe, little girl, if you ask me how much this cheap wine can sell in a month, then I really can't figure it out, but this expensive wine, our restaurant can only sell two hundred catties a month, so every month It is simply impossible to buy such good wine." The waiter said with some pride. "

As soon as the shop clerk finished speaking, a middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper came out from behind the counter and scolded the shop clerk, "Didn't you see that there are customers coming over there? You still have time to talk nonsense here!"

Ke Hanxue asked Xiaoer the price of the wine at the beginning, and the shopkeeper noticed her. Now that Xiaoer was talking nonsense, the shopkeeper's face turned black.
