Peasant Woman’s Decreed Life as a Wife

  Chapter 468 Pearl

   "Uncle Xing, you are here!" Chu Ziluo happily stretched out his hand to pull Chu Xing, calling him to come in.

  Chu Xing also grinned from ear to ear, and casually took out a round fan from an ordinary coarse cloth bundle in the mule cart behind him, and gave it to Chu Ziluo.

"Ziluo, take a look, do you like it or not, this is the delicate fan given to you by Uncle Xing, this hand has a pearl inlaid here, I heard that women like this white stone the most, this fan is also famous for its double-sided embroidery. "Chu Xing explained to Chu Ziluo enthusiastically.

  Chu Ziluo was full of curiosity when she heard it: "Uncle Xing, you are amazing, Pearl, it's so pretty, I like it very much."

   "I was also lucky. I went to a distant county and met a businessman from abroad. I bought seven or eight pearls from the other party at a low price. If I bought it from a shop, the price would have to be doubled."

  Speaking of this, Chu Xing was obviously very happy, this time he took advantage of it, and it was also the foreigner who took a fancy to the tea he brought over, otherwise there would be no way to exchange it.

   "Mom, come and see."

  Ye Muyu heard the sound, walked over slowly, and saw the mule cart parked behind Chu Xing, with a few packages on it, so she knew that she would go directly to her home after returning, and she hadn't had time to go home yet.

   "Ah Xing, come in and rest for a while. If you have anything to say, speak slowly. Aunt Fifth, I will call Nianya to report safety."

   "Then...then I won't be polite. In fact, sister-in-law, I have something to discuss with you and Brother Heng." Chu Xing rubbed his head, a little embarrassed, but thinking of the business opportunity he discovered this time, he was more excited than hesitant.

  Nen Ya heard Ye Muyu's words and ran to Wufang, very clever.

  The mule cart was not brought in, so Chu Xing directly carried several bundles into the main room.

  Ms. Hu went to cut the tea first, and then took some fodder for the mules.

"Sit down, have a sip of tea, and talk slowly." Ye Muyu also picked up the teacup and took a sip. Now it's the hottest time in summer. Even Ye Muyu, who is cold, is wearing two clothes now, so it's a little dry. Work will sweat.

   Not to mention that a half-grown young man like Chu Xing is very angry, wearing a gown, he is very hot.

  Chu Xing was not polite either. He picked up the tea and took a sip. Realizing that it was winter melon tea, he quickly finished his cup and wiped his mouth in satisfaction.

   "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to trouble you again." Chu Xing put down his teacup and saw Ye Muyu sitting beside him patiently waiting for him.

  He didn't delay anymore, and slowly talked about the journey that took three days to complete this time.

  Chu Ziluo sat on the lower stool, resting her chin to listen.

   "I drove the mule cart straight this time, crossed the two neighboring counties, and arrived at Lushui County with the largest dock."

   "The water transportation in Lushui County is much more than ours. The wharf alone is as big as our Nanchang County. There are foreign businessmen getting off the boat all the time. I have even met a lot of foreigners."

   "Hey, sister-in-law, this is the pearl I bought from that foreigner with tea. Look, how beautiful it is."

  Chu Xing reached out from a bundle, and took out a wooden box. There was only a rough magpie carved on the wooden box, and seven pearls were very eye-catching when it was opened.

   Each one is plump and smooth, crystal clear, Ye Muyu has seen a lot of jewelry in his previous life, and he can tell at a glance that although the pearls are not very big, they are of good quality.

   "How much tea did you trade for?" Ye Muyu asked.
