"The prices in Huaizhou are two to three times higher than our Beichuan County. Normally, the price of our five-spice powder would increase by that much, but since we're here, let's wait and see."
"Well, anyway, we only brought 20 kilograms of five-spice powder this time, so we should be able to sell it when we leave."
Jiang Huaixu suggested, "Brother, let's go buy some clothes and go to Wangyue Tower tomorrow to take a look. Otherwise, I'm worried that we'll be kicked out before we even enter."
Li Qiao'er bit her lip. When she came here, her parents had given her all the money they had in the house. Even Shuanghua had used the money she had saved. This was the first time she had carried so much money by herself. She had been worried all the way, afraid that it would be lost or robbed. Now she realized that it might not even be enough for a meal.
Jiang Huaixu continued, "Before I left, the village chief gave me a lot of money for the two of us to spend. It's a waste if we don't use it. We can earn it back later anyway."
"Ah Xu, this is what my parents prepared for me, take it." Li Qiaoer grabbed Jiang Huaixu's hand and placed the purse in her palm, "I don't think I can help you with anything..."
Jiang Huaixu shook his head. "Brother, that's wrong. Have you ever thought about what would happen if we got separated and you were penniless? I definitely can't accept this money."
After saying this, she walked forward slowly with her hands behind her back. "I'm so eloquent because I'm naturally gifted, but there aren't that many gifted people in the world. Just don't forget why you came here. Listen, watch, learn, and speak more. Sooner or later, you'll be able to stand on your own."
Li Qiao'er seemed to be lost in thought. She was not smart, but not stupid either. After just half a day, the encouragement she had given herself in her heart had dissipated a lot, and she felt more and more like a burden. But after hearing what Ah Xu said, she suddenly regained her courage.
It doesn't matter if she's a little bit stupid or slow. As long as she's willing to learn, she'll be able to learn it over time.
"Yeah!" Li Qiaoer laughed, "Ah Xu, I'm sure I can do it."
The two walked away, chatting and laughing, and went to a clothing store to pick out two suitable clothes. They also went to a jewelry store to pick out some jewelry. Finally, they returned home with a full load.
"Get out of here! Get out of here!"
On the way back to the inn, I heard noises from afar.
"Lu Hui, don't blame us. It's your father's fault for being in debt. He died so simply, leaving you and your mother to fend for yourself. Tsk tsk! If you're homeless in the future, you should blame your father!"
There were so many people watching the excitement that the entire road was squeezed into a narrow gap. Jiang Huaixu and Li Qiaoer could only say "make way" as they walked forward with difficulty.
