Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields

Chapter 806: Zhuangzi

Xiangli liked the dress very much when she saw it, but she and Mrs. Wang didn't buy it, but chose two plain ones.

Xiangli is still in observance of filial piety, so she can't dress too fancy, and one more thing, Yang Xu is gone, she has to go to the yamen to inquire about news, she is a foreigner, she doesn't need to dress too gorgeously, it doesn't matter if people look down on her.

But women, there is always a little bit of love for beauty. Xiangli looked at the embroidery displayed in the album and couldn't put it down. She also has a good handicraft, but she can't compare with the nanny Wang Pozi.

"Dude, we want this latest embroidery sample album."

Li Haitang opened her mouth to buy, buy, buy, Mrs. Wang cooked for everyone along the way, and Xiangli also helped take care of her son's bean buns, so she couldn't be stingy anymore.

Only by giving can you gain. Mrs. Wang has done a good job in embroidering, and she will be able to help in the future.

"Ma'am, this is too precious."

Mrs. Wang didn't even dare to speak, but even so, her eyes were still fixed on the album, wishing she could stick to it.

As expected of the capital of Daqi, the picture book is so beautiful, some patterns, it must look good as an embroidered screen, she has never seen it in Beidi.

The clerk listened to a few people chatting, and he had a good idea. He was afraid that it was a family member of an adult who had returned to Beijing to report his work. Ordinary merchants did not have such insight.

In her eyes, merchants have no taste, especially nouveau riche, who wear gold and silver, because she is afraid that others will not know that she is rich, and she is a model of a fool with a lot of money.

"Nurse, you are very discerning. These appearances were made only yesterday."

Seeing this, the buddy was willing to chat a little more, and said with a smile, "It's nothing more than the latest designs, our capital is updating quickly, and some of them are brought over from the sea.

"Outer sea?"

Mrs. Wang was surprised, this thing from the sea was mentioned by Li Haitang on the way, she was just a servant of a merchant family, and she didn't even have the chance to see the world.

"exactly."

Although the other party was surprised, he didn't show any confusion or doubt, and the guy confirmed her guess even more.

On the ten-mile long street in Kyoto, the most prosperous area, there is a Treasure Pavilion, which is dedicated to displaying things from the sea.

Rare things are the most expensive, and the goods are only available once a year or so. They are all rare and very sought-after. Of course, the price is also enough to make people stagger.

Li Haitang thanked the buddy, and took Zhenbao Pavilion into account in his heart, so he must go for a walk if he spared time.

She is a modern person, what hasn't she seen? It's just that she is curious about the things in the outer sea at this time, and she can speculate on the lives of the people in the outer sea through the things.

Buy good fabrics and the rest is much easier.

Mrs. Wang mainly cooks with chili peppers, but the farms in Kyoto may not have this kind of produce. Passing by a grocery store, the group bought chili peppers.

There are many kinds of grocery stores in Kyoto. There are also special spice shops on the streets, such as cumin, bay leaves, cinnamon bark, and common star anise. Li Haitang took Mrs. Wang to buy, and bought a small bag of them.

These seasoned stewed meat can remove the fishy smell of the meat. Today, we must have a celebration meal in the village, and Dongpo pork is one of the dishes.

Wang Pozi is good at cooking spicy dishes, and she can also cook dishes in the south.

On the way there, there was a restaurant in the south. After eating Dongpo meat, Mrs. Wang quickly identified the ingredients and copied them from the original.

This is talent, a talent for cooking!

"The villa is big, with many rooms and a separate small courtyard. You are welcome to live there first."

Li Haitang was afraid that the master and servant would not be able to let go, so he promised, "Xiangli, I treat you as a sister, and you don't want to be strangers to me as a sister. Zhuangzi is a private property under my name, and you can live as long as you want !"

After hearing this, Xiangli's eyes turned red, and she took Li Haitang's hand, her gratitude was beyond words, and she was too excited to speak.

Secretly, she and the nanny lamented that if they hadn't met Li Haitang, it would have been extremely difficult for the master and servant to get to the capital, and if they heard about Yang Xu, they might not be able to make it through.

There are a lot of cars and people in Kyoto. When you go to the city in the morning, you will be delayed for an hour for shopping. When you arrive at Xiaozhuang in the southern suburbs, it is already the beginning of the afternoon.

Li Short Legs was about to go out to do some errands, when he saw a carriage coming at the gate of the village, he looked carefully and almost sat on the ground.

"Oh my aunt!"

Li short legs came forward obsequiously, his face was full of joy, he was left in the capital for business relationship, just waiting for this aunt to come.

"I've been waiting for you!"

Xiaozhuangzi is not big, but the house is exquisite, especially at the back, and there is a private hot spring. He soaked in the hot spring in winter, soothes tendons and activates blood circulation, and his legs and feet have improved a lot.

"Yes, it can be regarded as coming."

At present, Li Short Legs is equivalent to the butler of her Zhuangzi. After all, Zhuangzi belonged to Zhang Ruyi's mother's dowry property before, so it took a lot of effort to take over Zhuangzi from outsiders.

It took almost a year for Li Short Legs to get everything in order.

On Zhuangzi, for the sake of the environment, no chickens and ducks are raised, only fruits and vegetables are grown, while the tenants of the family raise livestock, and ducks are raised in the pond.

Last month, Li Short Legs had just harvested a batch of duck eggs, and Second Aunt Chen helped to pickle them. When I ate them today, the oil was leaking out!

For more than a year, Li Kuanji had a lot to say. Every time someone sent something or a letter to Beidi, he could only talk about the important things, and kept some words in his stomach.

"Okay, Steward Li, this is not a place to reminisce about the old days. If you don't know, I thought you didn't welcome us."

Li Haitang was also very happy to see her old friend. She doesn't have a strong sense of class, and she learned that Li Diangui likes to eat fermented bean curd from her hometown, so she specially brought a small jar.

Small favors and small favors are sometimes more touching than a thousand pieces of gold.

Sure enough, Li Kuantong thanked him solemnly, Madam is so kind, he is a little man, but a cripple, he used to be a mess in Sunset Mountain, if Madam Li hadn't given her a chance, he would still be a bandit now.

During the Chinese New Year this year, when he was rich, he asked someone to bring back a lot of specialties from Kyoto for his parents.

It's been so many years, Li Kuangleg has come out in his early years, he must do a good job!

Not only that, but he also fell in love with the girl Chunmei in Zhuangzi. These days, he begged Second Aunt Chen for help to talk about Xiang. If Chunmei was interested, he would have a wife!

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, Li short legs walk like a wind, his eyes are bright, and his mouth is grinning.

This time is good, Madam is here, maybe she can help matchmaking, what a coincidence!

"Ma'am, look at the villain's memory!"

Li Short Legs set aside the best courtyard in the village, and it has been renovated, and the decorations inside are all newly purchased. Second Aunt Chen went to scrub it in two or three days, and the windows are bright and clean.

"This is the girl Xiangli I met on the way, and that is her nanny. I arranged a small courtyard for them with a quiet environment." On the way into the village, Li Haitang introduced Xiangli and Mrs. Wang, and looked around the surrounding environment. Everything is similar to what she imagined, the fruit trees are all bearing fruit, and this is a good time.
