"I've heard a lot about you. May I know your name, young lady?" She looked at the shopkeeper in a dark robe and said, "Hello, shopkeeper. You can call me Tong Yao."
"Tong Yao, that's a nice name. You can call me Uncle Zhang." After hearing him say the name, she quickly followed him, "Hello, Shopkeeper Zhang. I wonder what your price is."
When he heard the name Zhang, his eyebrows raised slightly. He didn't try to climb the ladder by climbing the ladder. That was good. If it were someone else, they would have already asked for Zhang Shushu to establish a relationship with him. These people are often greedy.
Tong Wen Yao walked over and showed ten marbles. The sunlight from the window peeked in, and the beads sparkled with gold. The light reflected from the sunlight shone on the wall, like a shadow, like light, and like a dream.
After taking a sip of tea, Shopkeeper Zhang said calmly, "I wonder where you got this bead from."
"It was handed down from my ancestors. Now that they've hit a rough patch, I'm trying to get some money," she said. This place was close to the border, so there weren't many people like her who traded for things passed down from their ancestors. So, after she said that, Shopkeeper Zhang didn't pursue the matter any further.
"Oh, I forgot to pour you tea. Sit down and have a cup." After taking the tea, she sat on the stool, holding the teacup in both hands, pretending to drink the tea, but in fact she was brought into the space with her mind.
Her sitting posture was based on the original owner's manners in the capital, only sitting a little closer to the stool.
Seeing her like this, Shopkeeper Zhang became more convinced that she was exchanging her ancestral items.
"I wonder how much you plan to sell it for?" She looked up at Shopkeeper Zhang and smiled slightly. "I've always heard that Yiqing Pavilion has fair prices. Please give me a price, Shopkeeper."
"Hahaha, in that case, how about fifteen taels per piece." Fifteen taels per piece is not a lot. If Ye Wan hadn't asked, she might have agreed to give him this price, but now that Ye Wan has asked, she won't agree to this price. You know, in the novel, Ye Wan is very rich and is very generous in rewarding her servants.
She didn't say anything, but instead picked up the teacup on the table and drank. "Shopkeeper Zhang may not know that Miss Ye just said she wanted to buy it in the store."
"Oh, in that case, why don't you just sell it to her?" She put down her cup and said with a smile, "Because I can make more money by selling it to her through you."
"How...what do I say?" "Shopkeeper Zhang, this is from the Western Regions. I believe Miss Ye will like it more."
"Okay, okay, then let's just set a price. How about twenty taels per piece?"
"Okay, Uncle Zhang, you're right." Shopkeeper Zhang couldn't help but laugh when he heard her call him Uncle Zhang. "You girl, you're really cunning."
After the agreement was reached, Shopkeeper Zhang produced the document and handed it to her. Tong Wenyao took it and carefully reviewed each item. After confirming that everything was correct, she signed and sealed it. There were ten beads in total, each weighing twenty taels, for a total of two hundred taels.
Shopkeeper Zhang handed her two silver notes, but she refused them. "Uncle Zhang, please give me some silver so I can exchange it." "Okay, then let Liuzi get it."
Liuzi had just brought the pen and ink when he heard what Manager Zhang said, and hurried out to get the silver.
"Sister Tong, this is two hundred taels. Can you count it?" She took it, weighed it, and said, "No need to count. I trust you."
"Next time you have something good, remember to bring it to our store first." "Sure, sure." Just because they raised the price for her, she would bring her things to sell next time.
Just as she walked out of the door, she heard a voice behind her, "Stop." At first she thought it was not her, so she didn't pay attention and continued to walk out until the voice behind her came again, "You at the door, stop right there." After she looked at the reactions of the people around her, she realized that Ye Wan was calling her.
She turned around, looked at her and said, "Miss, are you calling me?" Ye Wan looked her up and down, which made her feel very uncomfortable. After coughing lightly, she withdrew her inquiring gaze.
"Your figure looks familiar to someone I know. I thought she would be here." She said with a hint of flattery, her face showing joy. "Since you are lucky enough to meet someone you know, why don't you give me some tips? I think someone will definitely help you in the future."
After hearing this, she glared at him and said coldly, "Get lost." Seeing that she couldn't get a reward, she carefully turned around and squeezed into the crowd, and the flattering smile on her face immediately returned. She had previously entered the space and put on makeup to cover up her original appearance, fearing that the large amount of money she received would be targeted by thieves. She never expected that man's plans are not as good as God's will, and she met her former mortal enemy in the capital. Originally, the original owner and Ye Wan were competing with each other for Pei Guanyu's attention. For example, at the banquet, Ye Wan played the piano and she danced with the sword, and they couldn't fall behind in any way. After being exiled, the Taifu owed her a favor, which was why she adopted him. In order to stay in the capital, she competed with her frail sister for it. The main reason was the competition with Ye Wan, so later, she was provoked by people sent by Ye Wan, causing her to jump into the river and commit suicide.
The original owner pursued Pei Guanyu relentlessly. Sometimes, when Pei Guanyu was admiring peach blossoms in the suburbs, she would take her sister to the suburbs and meet him by chance. Her father told her before going to the battle that if he could win this time, he would ask for permission to help her realize her dream. If her father had not been framed, she might even have been engaged to Pei Guanyu.
Later, the Tong family was cleared of the charges and returned to the capital.
This is why the original owner was a female supporting role in the later period. However, now that she has transmigrated into the book, she can no longer be a female supporting role in the later period. She remembers that when the female supporting role returned to the capital, the relationship between Pei Guanyu and her sister was at its peak. However, Pei Guanyu was the person the original owner liked, and seeing the person she loved being snatched away by her sister, she naturally felt resentment.
After shaking her head, she stopped thinking about the things in the book and came to a Xishi tofu shop. There was only a couple in the shop. The man was busy in the house and the woman was selling tofu at the stall. She walked forward and took a look around. There was the tofu skin she wanted, which was indispensable for making spicy strips.
"Sun Niang, give me a piece of tofu." Sun Niang's smile was very nice. She felt that there was a kind of healing feeling in her smile. Her hands and feet were also nimble. After a while, she weighed the tofu and handed it to the guest next to her.
"Little girl, I want to buy that kind." Tong Wenyao heard her call her and said, "Sister Sun, how much is the tofu skin?" Sun Niang wiped the water stains on her hands and said, "Four cents per catty." She was used to the price of one catty and one catty, and suddenly heard such a cheap price, which made her feel a little uncomfortable. However, she quickly adjusted herself to it. "Then give me ten catties of tofu skin and two catties of tofu." After hearing that she wanted ten catties, Sun Niang did not immediately pack it up and weigh it. Instead, she asked, "Little girl, if you don't have many people at home, you don't need to buy so much. The tofu skin will go bad if you keep it for too long."
