The grand lady who time-traveled became a hot mom

Chapter 11

By the time the bullock cart rolled to Nantou County, Fang Yumin's buttocks had already been smashed into eight petals.Walking, the pain is the two legs; riding a bullock cart, the pain is the buttocks.Fang Yumin misses modern small cars with four soft tires.

But it seemed that only Fang Yumin showed pain, and everyone else was fine.Especially Xiao Ming, Xiao Ming sitting on her lap, a human cushion, bubbling with happiness.At this time, he happily jumped off the bullock cart and waited in line to enter the city. He didn't notice his almost useless mother at all, and even waved to Fang Yumin: "Mother, come down quickly, mother."

"Got it~~~" Fang Yumin supported the cart with his hands, and got off slowly.Wipe, my legs are numb.Fang Yu is sensitive. Since she came here, she no longer has to use a fake face to face the workplace. She can show her emotions, anger, sorrow, and joy to her heart's content. It's a lot easier, but she finds that she is quite vulgar.But it's so cool!

Xiao Ming leaned against Fang Yumin, raised his small face and smiled at her again.Fang Yumin looked at Xiao Ming's curious and happy little face, and showed him a gentle smile.This kid is very kind, and he would rather eat less than share the precious omelette with the children in the car, but he also got steamed buns, peanuts and corn tortillas from others.Fang Yumin thinks this is very good, Xiao Ming is a little bit lonely, except for that brother Qing, he has never seen anyone to play with.

When entering Nantou County, go through the wall gate first.The city wall was broken, and several officers and soldiers were guarding it.Most of the people who entered the city were peasants, and the officers and soldiers just picked a few random questions and let them enter the city.Taking advantage of the queue, Fang Yumin took out stewed sweet potatoes and water for Xiao Ming to eat, and she ate one herself, so that she would not waste time shopping later.

When it was Fang Yumin and Xiao Ming's turn, the eyes of the two officers and soldiers stayed on Fang Yumin's face and body for a while, then looked at Xiao Ming, the little carrot head she was pulling, and waved them to pass.

After everyone passed the city, Uncle Gui and the others told everyone that if they wanted to bring things back in their ox carts and mule carts, they had to come back here to gather before the end of time, and then go back together.

Fang Yumin did some calculations with her fingers, and Weishi was from one to three in the afternoon, which meant that they had to be back here before three in the afternoon.It's about ten o'clock in the morning, well, there's still enough time.

So Fang Yumin immediately reported to Uncle Gui to occupy the parking space first: "Uncle Gui, I will show Xiao Ming around, buy some cloth and meat, and come back here to take your car back later."

"Okay, don't be late."

"Yes, thank you uncle."

"Aunt Chunhua, go sell it, I'll take Xiao Ming for a walk, see you later."

"Okay, let's go."

Fang Yumin took Xiao Ming to a remote place, poured water from the bamboo tube and wet the cloth towel, wiped his face and hands with Xiao Ming.Then she stretched out her hands to comb her hair, patted the dust on her body, pulled the clothes to tidy up, and tidied Xiao Ming's clothes, then took his hand and walked slowly towards Dongshi.

Nantou County is not big, but sparrows are small and well-equipped.The necessary materials are also considered complete, and it is divided into east and west markets according to commodity prices, quality, and uses.Generally speaking, Dongshi sells high-priced goods and luxury goods. There are rows of shops there that look neat and clean. It is very beautiful in Nantou County. Most of the people who buy things there are rich people; The West Market is a cheap market, just like a hypermarket, you can set up a stall just by finding a place on the street, where the hawkers will shout loudly to attract customers, and it is very lively.

Going to be a jade pendant will naturally go to the high-end Dongshi. Although Fang Yumin's clothes are relatively simple, a person's appearance does not mean anything. The important thing is the inner cultivation and the displayed temperament. Fang Yumin is pretending to be B now.Even if the cloth shoes were full of dust, even if the clothes on her body were quite old, Fang Yumin could still walk calmly, with a calm look on her face.With that appearance and that aura, she looks like a lady from a big family.It also attracted the attention of many people.

Fang Yumin stopped at the door of the largest pawnshop in Nantou County.She has never pawned anything, and she doesn't know what to pay attention to?However, Fang Yumin felt that this was the same as selling, trying to find a way to sell the jade pendant in her hand at the highest price.

Fang Yumin sorted out her mood, then pulled Xiao Ming into the pawn shop with his head held high, deliberately ignoring the men who came up to meet him, and directly smiled at the fat middle-aged shopkeeper who was trying to see him: "Shopkeeper, I have a piece of beautiful jade that I want to die for. "

The fat shopkeeper glanced at Fang Yumin, didn't move, just smiled kindly: "I don't know what Madam wants to be? Can I have a look at it first?"

"Yes, I hope the shopkeeper can give you a good price." Fang Yumin opened the jade pendant that had been removed and packed in a cloth bag, and held it up with both hands with a very precious look, with a look of reluctance.

The fat shopkeeper took the jade pendant but didn't look at the jade first, but looked at Fang Yumin without any trace.But all the people who come to pawn things, no matter men, women, old or young, are more or less restrained, with a look of shame and inferiority.But the lady in front of her was generous and full of smiles.Although the clothes he was wearing were very old, and he seemed to be living in a poor life, but that smile, that temperament and the faint momentum exuded, it seemed that he was not here to be jade, but to buy jade.

The fat shopkeeper who read countless people almost immediately concluded that the lady in front of him must be the wife of a big family whose family has fallen. He lowered his head and played with the jade pendant repeatedly. This jade pendant is of good quality and is of the same jade species as the jade bracelet last time.He looked at Fang Yumin, pretending to be disdainful: "This piece of jade is worth eight taels of silver at most. Look..."

"The shopkeeper," Fang Yumin interrupted the fat shopkeeper with a smile. If he was given more time, he would definitely say that this jade is worthless: "This jade pendant was left to me by my late father. I think he was in Beijing back then. It costs more than 100 taels of silver to buy it in Li. Now my family has encountered some accidents, so I have to pawn it. I am really reluctant. Then don’t talk about it too badly for the shopkeeper, you and I understand. I You don't need to ask too high a price, you just give a real price, eight taels of silver is really too little."

"It's really small in Nantou County, and it can't compare with the capital city. How about it, I'll give you ten taels at most, and ten taels is already a lot." The fat shopkeeper looked like he was about to lose money, but he held on tightly That jade pendant.If the person who came to be the shopkeeper lowered his head, he would have missed the little tricks of the fat shopkeeper, but anyone who looks like this fat shopkeeper can't help but want to own it at the lowest price when he sees a good thing.

Fang Yumin would not let the other person's slightest change in expression go by. She was a little guilty when she said that the jade pendant was worth more than 100 taels of silver, but seeing the fat shopkeeper's appearance of being unimportant but reluctant to let go of the jade pendant, Fang Yumin decided to give it a go: "This piece I’m dead on the jade, so don’t tell the shopkeeper how much it’s worth, just give me a real price.” At first, Fang Yumin wanted to say that she wouldn’t sell it if it was less than 20 taels, but she really didn’t want to say that she needs money now.

"12 taels, it seems that you and I are the ones who pay the price. Last time a lady came to pawn a jade bracelet, I only gave 10 taels."

"20 taels."

"15 taels."

"Shopkeeper, shall we each take a step back? I think you like this jade pendant too, and I really don't want to sell it cheaply. Buy it now: 17 taels of silver." Fang Yumin said to the fat shopkeeper with the determination of a strong man breaking his wrist. .

"17 taels is too much, no, no, no, 16 taels. 16 taels is the deal." This kind of person is really greedy!

"Forget it, anyway, Nantou County is not the only pawn shop like yours. I was very sincere to pawn this jade pendant, but you just bargained with my wife for this tael of silver. Forget it, I will go Find another one." After Fang Yumin finished speaking, she reached out to retrieve the jade pendant.

"Wait, wait. Ma'am, you are really in a hurry, everything is easy to talk about, oh, okay, let's just 17 taels." The fat shopkeeper held the jade pendant tightly and refused to let go. Seeing that Fang Yumin was about to take it away, he couldn't bear it anymore , Painfully estimated, it was still very profitable, so he let go.

"Come on, for your shopping convenience, I'll divide 17 taels of silver into 10 taels, 5 taels, 1 tael and 900 Wen." The fat shopkeeper took out the silver and counted it out for Fang Yumin.

"Why 900 Wen? Isn't 1 tael 1000 Wen?" Fang Yumin stared at the fat shopkeeper, wanting to be greedy even for 100 Wen?
"This silver is a little less when converted into copper plates." The fat shopkeeper put on a smiling face.

"It wouldn't be 100 coins less, would it? Why don't you give me the silver, and I'll convert it myself."

"Okay, okay, that 950 Wen, you have to exchange it for this price."

"960 words!"

"...Okay, deal." The fat shopkeeper had a heartache on his face, and he counted three times before he was willing to hand over the silver and copper coins to Fang Yumin.

Fang Yumin turned around to collect the silver and put the copper coins into her pocket.She despised this fat shopkeeper very much in her heart, but such a big pawnshop is so stingy, a miser!
Coming out of the pawn shop, Fang Yumin still had a calm expression on her face, but in fact, she was already very happy in her heart.Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, this jade pendant can be worth 17 taels of silver!Originally 500 catties of pork became 850 catties!

Because she was too excited, Fang Yumin couldn't help scratching Xiao Ming's hand: "Mother, mother? It hurts."

"Ah, I'm sorry, Xiao Ming. Come on, mother will show you." Fang Yumin squatted on the ground and blew Xiao Ming's little hand, leaned into Xiao Ming's ear and said, "Xiao Ming, you can't tell anyone what happened today, do you understand?"

"Well, I listen to mother." Xiao Ming nodded seriously.

"Xiao Ming is so good! Come on, mother will take you to eat, you can eat whatever you want." Fang Yumin waved his hand proudly and said.

"Okay, I want to eat meat buns."

"Eh? Why do you want to eat meat buns?"

"Brother Qing said that meat buns are the best, they are all meaty once you bite into them. Hiss..."

This unlucky child is really pitiful, Fang Yumin patted Xiao Ming's head and said, "Okay, let's eat meat buns."

Fang Yumin took Xiao Ming to the West Market, eating and drinking along the way.However, Fang Yumin, who was used to seeing all kinds of night markets and food courts, was not attracted. Xiao Ming, who had never been out, was drooling all the way, but for the meat buns, he resisted the temptation.Even Fang Yumin admired him for this.
