For the following time, Wang Yi hid in the inn and did not go out again.
After noon, the family returned one after another.
Li Shenggen smiled as he led a tall mule and pulled back two large carts.
"Mom, this mule cost us five taels of silver! The two carts cost another three taels, so a total of eight taels. I didn't buy much food and clothes for fear of being robbed. I only bought about three hundred pounds, and three pounds of coarse salt. It's all here."
The daughters-in-law had some copper coins in their hands, and at most they could buy a candied haws or a piece of malt sugar for their children, and some other things for themselves.
The second son Chengcai bought two axes, the third and fourth sons each bought a long sword, and the fifth son Shoucheng bought a few handwritten books, spending 2 taels, and the sixth son Li Liugen bought a shiny dagger, spending 2 taels.
Their protective weapons can make the family safer on the road. Although they spent more money than buying mules and carts, Wang Yi felt that they were doing the right thing.
Looking more closely, I saw a slender copper hairpin stuck on the top of the orchid seedling, which made a jingling sound. Although it was cheap, it was exquisitely made and looked pretty good.
When Wang Yi stared at her, she lowered her head in shame, the mourning ribbon on her head fluttering. The little girl actually looked a little grown up. It seemed that this was bought by Lao Wu.
"Didn't you buy some meat?"
"It went bad so quickly that I only bought five pounds."
"Buy some coarse salt to marinate it, and then buy another 20 pounds. How can we go on the road without meat?"
Five pounds of meat is only enough for a family to eat for one meal at most, but if you cut a few slices of bacon, it can last for a long time.
Li Shenggen had no choice but to nod.
The decision to give away twenty kilograms of meat made each adult contribute another point of filial piety to Wang Yi.
Wang Yi clapped his hands and said, "Okay, we're ready. We'll leave the city before dawn tomorrow."
Li Chengcai frowned slightly. They spent 10 copper coins each to enter the city, and spent 300 coins to stay in the hotel for a day. They had to stay until the hotel owner kicked them out.
You can stay in the city all day tomorrow, why leave so fast?
He tried to stall: "So urgent? Mother, are you in trouble again in the city?"
Wang Yi smiled and stretched out two fingers and pinched them together:
"Yes, there is a little trouble."
