"I did buy some, but not much. Things in the drugstore are too expensive these days. That tea only costs two catties for one tael of silver. It used to cost a hundred coins at most. And the ginger you asked me to buy, next time you go to the drugstore to buy something, don't let me go. I can't buy anything."
"I spent my money without asking you to pay any money. Look at your face, it's all wrinkled." Chunxiao found it funny.
"It's just that I feel bad for your money, young lady. You've spent so much money on this farm. Look at you, young lady, you're completely broke now."
"Yes, I have no money now. I am just hoping that my cotton will grow quickly so that I can make more money."
One day at the end of July, Chun Xiao had just returned from the fields and had taken a bath. She was sitting in the main room to cool off and work on her blueprints when she saw Xingfu rushing in. "Miss, Miss, someone's looking for you."
"Come find me if you want to find me. Why are you so panicked? Who is looking for me?"
"I don't know them. A pair of carriages came, but they were stopped outside the farm by our people."
"A pair of carriages?" Chunxiao put down her pen. "Are they people from the township government?"
"No, I know all the officers from the township government, and it doesn't look like them."
"Then you should have asked the person's name before reporting back to me. How could you rush in like this and end up not knowing anyone?"
"I, I've got that. I'll go ask who it is and get back to you."
"Forget it, I'll go with you." Chunxiao stood up and followed her out of the yard.
The cotton in the field was now half a man's height, and the main courtyard and several other courtyards were completely hidden in the cotton field. Fortunately, they had considered this when they first started farming, and had left a path for carriages between the two fields, and there were also paths between the courtyards. It took them more than an hour to walk out along the path.
When Chunxia walked outside, he saw the carriages parked between the edge of the field and the ditch. There was a ditch between the land of their farm and the land of the nearby village. There were many people standing beside the carriages, and some of them were looking at the cotton at the edge of the field.
Several people from Xia Yuan were stopping people from going to the fields, and those people were looking at them and talking from a distance.
