Chapter 33 Rest and Shopping



Lin Wanwan went to bed early tonight. After being tired for so many days, she finally got a good rest for a day.

The crescent moon cast a faint afterglow, and the breeze blew into the house through the window, bringing a slight chill. The whole world was quiet, even the sound of insects had stopped. She had originally thought that there would be a lot of mosquitoes in ancient times, but that was not the case. There were very few mosquitoes here, and occasionally a few would fly into the house, but they didn't bite people much, and being bitten wouldn't cause extreme itching.

As she was thinking about this randomly, she gradually fell asleep.

When she woke up again, it was already bright outside. Lin Wanwan closed her eyes for a while before getting dressed and washing up.

Lin Bai was feeding the donkey with straw. She saw that the chickens had also been fed. Wow, he is quite capable.

"Sister, get up. Sister Yuying just brought over some chaff and broken rice, and I've already fed them to the chickens!"

"Well, okay, our Xiaobai is really capable. Let's go to the county after dinner."

"Okay! I'll light a fire for my sister!"

Oh my god, where can she find such a good brother? She is so lucky.

Lin Wanwan quickly washed up, went to the kitchen to fry an egg, cooked some corn porridge, and mixed some wild vegetables.

They ate a simple meal and packed up the leftovers for Ermao and Sanmao. In case it was not enough, they poured some dog food for them.

Then she led the donkey out, harnessed it to the cart, and ordered Lin Bai to call Sister Yuying. After a while, Sister Yuying came out with Brother Ping'an and Xiaobai.

"Oh, Wan girl, my Ping An has been pestering me all morning and insisted on going with me! Really!"

Lin Wanwan smiled and said, "It's okay, sister-in-law. They don't take up much space anyway, so we can go and have some fun together!"

"Okay, let's go quickly. It's a little late today, and I don't know if I can buy anything useful."

"It's okay, sister-in-law. It's not too late. We can go now."

"Okay then, let's go quickly!"

"Okay, Ping An Xiaobai, you two sit tight, let's go!"

"Okay, sit tight~"

Lin Wanwan couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth when she saw how excited they were, and she rushed to the county town in a very good mood.

The weather was a bit hot and humid today, and the two little guys were wilted by the sun, leaning against each other and sleeping with their eyes closed.

"It's a bit hot and muggy, and I'm afraid it will rain in the next two days. Fortunately, our village harvests the grain quickly, otherwise it would be bad if it rained."

It’s raining... It hasn’t rained much since she came here. Fortunately, there is a big river in their village, otherwise it would also affect the rice fields.

"Sister-in-law, will there be some drought this year?"

"Alas, it has always been like this. It often rains in June and July, but it doesn't rain in August. The harvest is not very good, these days..."

Lin Wanwan leaned on her shoulder and said, "It's okay, sister-in-law. I can still support you even if the harvest is not good!"

“Hahaha…” Li Yuying hugged her into her arms, “That’s right, our Wanwan is a wealthy girl now, and my sister-in-law will have to rely on Wanwan in the future!”

"Hehe, sister-in-law, just rely on me~"

When they arrived at the county town, Lin Wanwan first took them to Zhouji Cloth Shop to buy some clothes for backup.

As soon as the clerk in the cloth shop saw Lin Wanwan, he immediately came over to greet her.

"Miss Lin is here? But do you want to bring food?"

Lin Wanwan waved her hand and said, "Didn't we just deliver it two days ago? We came here today to buy some fabrics and look at the ready-made clothes."

"Okay, then I'll take you around?"

"Okay, thank you for your help, big brother!"

"It's no trouble, no trouble. Our shopkeeper has already told us to treat you well, Miss Lin!"

"Thank you so much, Manager Zhou. Big brother, please tell us the material and price. We don't need anything too expensive. We only want to buy some fabrics for daily wear."

"Okay, Miss Lin, take a look. This is the newly arrived kapok cloth. It's comfortable and warm, but it's a bit expensive. The production of this cloth is very small, and it costs two taels per piece. I heard that it's even more expensive in the capital! Look at this, it's also a newly arrived silk and linen cloth, woven from mulberry silk and fine linen. It's softer than ordinary fine linen, and the price is also higher, 800 coins per piece..."

Lin Wanwan thought for a moment and said, "I need five rolls of kapok cloth and five rolls of this silk linen. Brother, do you have ready-made clothes of my size?"

When the clerk heard that she wanted so much, he became even more friendly and quickly took her to the other side to look at the ready-made clothes.

Lin Wanwan picked out a set of short shirt and trousers with narrow sleeves and a straight collar, and a pink short coat and long skirt. She also picked out one for Sister Yuying, but Sister Yuying said she didn't want anything.

"Oh, it's too expensive, I don't want it, it costs two taels of silver! I won't wear it!"

"Sister-in-law, this won't do. You have to wear it. You have to dress more decently when you open a shop in the future!"

"I have some at home. I can just buy some cloth and make two sets of clothes myself!"

"I've bought the fabric, sister-in-law, go try it on. It's already been bought, and you have to wear it even if you don't want to! Brother, pick out two more sets of clothes for the kids, just for them!"

Once again, he got into a battle with Sister Yuying for the child, and in the end he was defeated by Lin Wanwan. Ping'an and Xiaobai obediently tried on the clothes.
