So, I have to go to the market today to see if there are any vegetable seeds for sale. She has already cleaned up the yard. If I can buy vegetable seeds, I can plant them directly when I come back, so I don’t have to go down the mountain to buy them. The quality is not good and the price is so expensive.
The last time she went down the mountain, she spent five or six cents. She now has a little more than four taels. She has to buy rice, noodles, vegetables and meat to feed two people. She also wants to find someone to build a kang and reinforce the house. She doesn't know how much it will cost...
Hey! How can this be done with only outflow and no inflow? I have to find a job to do.
She was good at washing clothes. But Ningguta was not like the capital, where there were many wealthy families. Not many families could afford maids. And she was worried about Zhong Mingwei being alone at home. It would be nice if there was a job nearby that didn't require her to go out all the time...
Ah Chou was thinking about finding a job all the way, and before he knew it, he had arrived at the foot of the mountain. After walking for half a day, he felt a little thirsty. Ah Chou looked at the fenced yard in front of him, thought for a moment, and then walked over.
"Is anyone there?" Ah Chou went forward and knocked on the door.
"I know!"
The tall and thin young man was the one who opened the door.
"Miss, are you coming down the mountain again?" Chen Qingxuan greeted Achou with a smile.
"Yes. We ran out of rice at home, so we went to the market to buy some." Ah Chou also smiled and said, "I have been walking on the mountain road for half a day. I am very thirsty. I came to ask Mr. Chen for a drink of water. I don't know if it is convenient or not."
"Convenient, convenient! Please come in, young lady." Chen Qingxuan hurriedly invited Ah Chou in, helped Ah Chou take the last big bamboo basket and put it at the door, then asked Ah Chou to sit down, while holding a white porcelain teapot and was about to pour tea, suddenly he seemed to remember something, and turned around and asked Ah Chou, "How about jasmine?"
Ah Chou was startled: "What flower?"
"I'm talking about tea leaves," Chen Qingxuan smiled gently, "Then let's go with jasmine tea. This tea is very fragrant, and the girl should like it."
Ah Chou understood and rubbed his hands a little embarrassedly: "I don't really understand these things. I usually drink boiled water, so...anything is fine."
"Then let's try the jasmine today," Chen Qingxuan brought a cup of tea over and placed it in front of Ah Chou, smiling, "Next time you come, I'll change Biluochun for you."
"No! No! I can't taste anything even if I drink it. It's a waste of your good tea to give it to me." Ah Chou was very flattered and said to Chen Qingxuan hurriedly while looking at the blue and white porcelain teacup in front of him.
She had never seen such an exquisite teacup before. In the past, she was just a rough maid in the palace and had no chance to serve her master closely, so she had never seen any good things. So when she saw the porcelain with flowers, she couldn't take her eyes off it.
Seeing her staring at the cup, Chen Qingxuan thought there was something wrong with it. After waiting for a long time and not hearing her speak, he had no choice but to ask, "Miss, is there anything wrong with this cup?"
"No," Ah Chou came back to his senses, scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said to Chen Qingxuan, "I think this cup is beautiful. The three fish on it are painted so vividly. I can't help but be greedy. Don't laugh at me."
Chen Qingxuan found this cute and innocent look interesting and kind, and immediately took out an identical cup from the tea tray and said to Ah Chou, "Young lady, you have good taste. This cup is painted with three thousand weak waters, but only one scoop is taken."
