Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chapter 85 Going to Dingzhou (asking for monthly ticket)

Wang was also very excited and smiled, More than that, she took out the emerald and said knowingly, This stone is called emerald, not jade. Look at the color, it is lighter than jade and a little transparent. I It turned out that I saw a lady wearing very beautiful jewelry in an embroidery shop. Later, I heard from the shopkeeper that it was called emerald, and it was more valuable than jade. This emerald, plus so many rubies, cost more than a hundred taels of silver.

Chen Afu then said that he wanted to take them to Fucheng to sell them and buy some land. He also said that instead of buying land nearby, he would buy land farther away and rent it out, so no one else would know.

Chen Ming asked, If others find out, how do you explain the origin of the money? You can't say that you picked up gems in the woods to the west. In that case, it is likely that many rich people will come forward and say that they were there. Lost the gem.”

Chen Afu smiled and said, If we really need to pursue the case, we have something to say. I heard from Manager Luo that Abbot Liaochen said that the brocade bird was not ordinary, and she asked the Chu family uncle to give me some money. I calculated that it would not be less than a hundred dollars. Two. I got hundreds of taels of silver from selling my sewing kit, and I got a lot of taels of silver from selling braised pork recipes and golden squid, and the owner of Tangyuan rewarded us. When the time comes, I will sell those dolls again, let’s not talk about it. They don’t know the actual amount.” He added, “If we buy more, I would like to divide dozens of acres under my father’s name and pass it on to my brother in the future.”

Chen Ming hurriedly waved his hand and said, Dad, I don't want it. You have already given me so much money. If I want to buy land, I will buy it myself. Besides, if your aunt knows that I have so much land under my name, but does not tell them, no If you know how to make a fuss, your uncle will be unhappy. Dad doesn’t want to make your uncle angry, so let’s talk about it later.”

Mrs. Wang also said, What your father said is that if we bought the land without telling you, your aunt would say that we were hiding something, and your uncle would be unhappy.

Even if Chen Ming and Wang didn't care about Hu's thoughts, they couldn't help but care about Chen Ye's thoughts.

Chen Afu secretly thought that Chen Ming and Wang were a bit too generous. Chen Ye raised Chen Ming, but he couldn't ask him for instructions and report everything. He had to look at other people's faces when using his own money. If that didn't work, he put the deed directly on Alu's head.

On the evening of the 6th, Mrs. Chen, Chen Ye, and Hu came again. They brought Chen Shi some snacks, as well as the corn, peanuts, sesame seeds, vegetables and other things they had just harvested.

Chen Ye also said, Let the third child come back to celebrate the New Year. My mother misses him and I miss him too.

Wang nodded in agreement.

Mrs. Chen glanced at Mrs. Hu and snorted angrily. Originally, the old lady wanted to follow Mr. Wang to visit her third son and his family this time, but she had a headache these past few days and had been taking soup and medicine, so she had to give up the idea. She pointedly said to Mr. Wang, Tell the third child that the life of the eldest and the second child is getting better now. If he has difficulties, don't bear it alone. Both brothers will help. This year's Chinese New Year, He must come back to see me.

The second roommate of the Chen family did not bring food to Chen Shi's family this time. They knew that the eldest room and Mrs. Chen would bring this. What they gave was satin, head flowers and some school supplies.

Chen Shi and his wife Zhang are both good people. They helped Alu a lot in the past, and Chen Ming's family is very grateful to them. This time I have to bother his house again for ten days and a half, so I gave him a lot of gifts.

The next day, the Chen family got up before dawn. After breakfast, before midnight, Old Man Gao drove the donkey cart. Two days ago, Mrs. Wang told him that she would hire his donkey cart today.

Before going out, Chen Dabao nervously asked Chen Afu, Mom, have the silver and gems been put away?

Chen Afu said, Don't worry, son, Dongxi Niang kept it secret and no one will find out.

Chen Dabao was relieved after hearing this.

The autumn morning was also cold. Wang took a mattress and spread it in the car. Alu lay down and covered him with a small quilt. After placing three large baskets and two baskets at the back of the car, Wang, Chen Afu and Dabao got into the car.

They waved goodbye to Chen Ming who was standing in the fence gate, watching his figure getting smaller and smaller until they could no longer see him.

Zhui Feng kept sending them out of the village, and only stopped with tears in his eyes after the persuasion of several people. Chen Dabao has made an agreement with him to let him look after the house and accompany his grandpa at home. He also asked Qiqi and Huihui to play in the woods more often and to bother Grandpa less at home. He also specifically warned them that they could only go to the west forest where Jin Bao often took them before, and not run around, otherwise they would not be able to find their way home.

Xiangluo Village is not far from the capital of Dingzhou, only about fifty miles away, and passes through Zhongning County on the way. Since this road is all plains and the road is flat, it takes more than three hours to get there by donkey cart. In other words, if you set off at 00:00, if there are no accidents, you will arrive at noon.

Chen Afu put on his bamboo hat, and several people sat in the car and swayed around. They looked at the scenery along the way and chatted wordlessly. Time passed quickly. This is a plain area with many fertile fields along the way. It is a veritable land of plenty and it seems to have good security.

After walking for an hour, Alu, who had been lying down and looking at the sky, suddenly pointed to the sky and said, Look, those two birds are one big and one one small. They look like our Qiqi and Huihui.

A few people looked up and saw that they looked like Qiqi and Huihui, flying in their direction.

When we got closer, it was really them. Two birds fell down, ashes fell on Chen Afu's hand, and Qiqi fell on Chen Dabao's hand.

Dabao said unhappily, Why are you so disobedient? This road is not a road you are familiar with. What if you can't find your home?

Chen Afu also said, We are going to do business and don't have time to look at you. What if there is another noble person who forcefully buys you again? Follow Old Man Gao home.

Huihui and Qiqi were unwilling to go back, but they flapped their wings vigorously and called them Mother, Dabao and Uncle.

Dabao and Alu were reluctant to part with them and said kind words to them, Just let them go, we will hide them well.

Old Man Gao burst out laughing, These two parrots are so smart. Strangely, there were rumors in the village that someone was plotting against them a few days ago. It was only Uncle Luo who said something that prevented them from being robbed.

Chen Afu had no choice but to free up a basket of sesame seeds, put them in, and covered them with a piece of cloth.

On the way, let alone a rich man, even two strong men could forcefully buy them.

There are still a dozen or so miles away from the capital city of Dingzhou, and soldiers in uniforms can often be seen. Although the capital city of Dingzhou is not a provincial capital, it has been a strategic location in all dynasties, so there are many troops stationed around it. And because it is close to the capital, the North Canal passes through this place. It is a transportation hub, and the economy is extremely prosperous. Its wealth is no less than that of the provincial capital Shi'anfu.

Starting today, Wenwen will be on the shelves. I hope you will continue to support it. Please give me monthly tickets and first order. Thank you for your life like water, fannyling for your monthly ticket, thank you for the goddess Oh Oh Oh Oh, and Hera Qianlin for your wallet.
