Pei Yu sat in his room, trying to mobilize the little bit of internal strength in his body, but it was too little to be of any use.
I heard the sound of the Shen family returning outside, and opened my eyes. I didn't know what this family had been doing so early in the morning.
But it’s none of my business!
His injuries were almost healed, and Miss Shen was already asking indirectly when he had left.
Thinking of this, Pei Yu sat down at the table and drew an ink painting. He planned to have Miss Shen send it to the town tomorrow. It was time for him to leave.
Pei Yu opened the door and came to Chen Li, "Miss Chen, could you please help me deliver a letter?"
Shen Li looked up at him. This man was finally leaving!
Pei Yu understood the emotions in her eyes. He used to be popular among the girls in the capital, so why was he so unwelcome by Miss Shen?
Chen Li took the envelope and said, "I'm not going to town tomorrow. Can I deliver it to you the day after tomorrow?"
"Yes, Miss Shen, please help me find a reliable escort agency to deliver it to this address, and the reward will be paid at the same time."
Pei Yu handed over another note. Chen Li opened it and saw that it was from a bookstore called Moxiangzhai in Jiangyang County.
"Are you anxious?"
"Also, will this letter reveal my home address?"
Pei Yu shook his head, his face full of seriousness, "Don't worry, Miss Shen, I haven't recovered yet, so I won't do anything I'm not sure of."
"good."
It takes at least three days to get from here to Jiangyang County. In that case, let's send the letter to him tomorrow.
"Master Wei, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do in town tomorrow, so I'll take your letter with me."
Pei Yu nodded with a complicated look in his eyes, but said nothing.
It seems that my intuition is correct, Miss Shen really dislikes me!
Could it be that he thinks the compensation he gives is too little?
Chen Li didn't know what he was thinking, she just wanted to get rid of this big Buddha as soon as possible.
One day at home means one day of danger. Send it away quickly, out of sight, out of mind.
The next morning, after morning training, Chen Li drove a mule cart to town.
The fields on both sides of Sanli Village are a little dry. It hasn't rained for a long time, and the leaves of the seedlings on the ground are turning yellow.
After walking for a while, you can see a villager standing by the field with a sad face.
There is a good river in the mountain village, but the water is not deep and cannot last long after a drought.
I went to town today and bought a few more water tanks to take home.
Chen Li arrived in the town and went to find the largest escort agency. There was a trip going through Jiangyang County in the afternoon.
Chen Li handed over the envelope and gave one or two taels of silver as a fee for running errands.
Don’t mention it, it’s a bit expensive!
When Chen Li drove past the grain shop, he saw that the grain price had risen again. There were only three grain shops in the town, and the prices of all three were the same. If one adjusted its price, the other two would follow suit.
Now the price of brown rice has risen to 12 wen per catty. When I first bought it, the price of brown rice was 8 wen per catty. Now a stone of old rice costs 80 wen, while it was only 50 wen before.
Despite this, there were still many people buying food at the grain shop. Chen Li bought 2 stone of brown rice and 2 stone of coarse flour and did not buy anything else.
There is still food at home. I have bought a lot of it during this period. There are also many buns, steamed buns and the like in the space.
Chen Li continued driving the mule cart forward. When he saw steamed buns and steamed buns, he packed up all 200 steamed buns and 300 steamed buns on the stall.
I saw a pancake stall and bought all 200 pancakes there.
Chenli did not buy any snacks or candied fruits. Instead, she bought three large water jars, put them in a mule cart and pulled them back.
It’s not that Chen Li didn’t want to buy a few more, but the carriage couldn’t hold them all.
There seems to be a water boiler in the village. You can get it from the village when the time comes.
Chen Li drove the mule cart back home. Her three brothers came to unload the things. Seeing the three large water tanks, they were curious about what they were used for.
We have a well and two water tanks at home, so why did my younger sister buy three?
However, despite their curiosity, the three of them did not ask out loud. The things the younger sister bought had their own uses.
When Chen Li saw her sister-in-law Xu Taohua, she suddenly remembered that when her sister-in-law was dragged away to block the knife, the book mentioned that her sister-in-law was pregnant?
What about now?
Chen Li looked at her sister-in-law's belly, wondering if she was pregnant now?
Chen Li came to Pei Yu's room and stood outside the door and said, "Master Wei, the letter will be delivered to Anyang County this afternoon."
The man’s cold voice came from the room, “Thank you, Miss Shen.”
After Shen Li said that, she found Shen Changshan again and said, "Dad, the price of brown rice in the grain store in town has risen to 12 wen per catty, and the price of aged rice has also risen to 70 wen."
Shen Changshan was shocked, "Why is it growing so fast?"
Chen Li shook her head, "Dad, go talk to the elders of the clan later."
"Dad will go now."
Sanli Village has the largest number of people with the surname Shen, and the village chief also has the surname Shen. Men of Shen Jingyuan's generation basically have their names given by the elders of the clan.
There are two scholars and one old juren in the Shen family. There is also a clan school. When he was young, the fourth brother Shen Qi'an also studied in the clan school.
Later, Uncle Shen and Aunt Shen were afraid that their family would have a bright future, so they threw a tantrum and refused to let Shen Qi'an stay in the clan school.
Later, when he was a little older, Shen Changshan sent Shen Qi'an to the town school, but was disturbed by Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen again.
Shen Changshan and Lin Cuicui didn't know what was going on at that time. They seemed to have no temper at all and just did whatever Shen Dajiang and Yang Chunhong said.
