Holding a fifty-liang silver note in his hand, Ke Xin looked at it over and over again with curiosity.
In the past, she had only seen silver bills in TV dramas, but today she was able to touch real silver bills, fresh and hot from the oven.
She was having so much fun playing with the banknotes that she even ignored the remaining silver that Fang Yaozu gave her. Jiang Fu smiled helplessly, put the 15 taels of silver into his purse and handed it to his father Jiang Yongfa, and then gave her the remaining 100 coins: "Jiu'er, stop playing. We have to go to the county town today. Leave early and we will be there in the afternoon."
Hearing the word "county town", Ke Xin stopped playing around and said, "Oh, okay."
As he spoke, he handed the banknote to his uncle Jiang Yongfa: "Uncle, keep it."
She had figured out the job of buying things. No matter whether it was her grandfather or her father, they would bargain to the core. So, she was only responsible for looking at the things, and left the bargaining to the adults.
After a while, Liu Feiyang finally recovered his breath, but he heard them say they were going to the county town, which made him curious.
"Sister Jiang, are you going to the county town for something? My carriage is right outside and can take you there~"
It's rare for this little girl to give up making money and go to the county town. There must be something in the county town that attracts her, so she opened her mouth out of curiosity.
The eldest sister of the Jiang family?
If these words came from a seven or eight-year-old child, she could understand them, but coming from the mouth of an old man older than herself, it was full of irony.
Ke Xin chuckled twice, her lips curled up, and there was a knife hidden in her smiling eyes: "Brother Liu is so kind, if we refuse, wouldn't it be unreasonable?"
"Then I'll have to trouble you, brother." Ke Xin curled her lips and said in a smile: "Brother, let's go."
Calling "brother" left and right made Liu Feiyang frown. Even if he was stupid, he knew that the little girl was angry, but... why was she angry?
Could it be that she dislikes me calling her the eldest sister of the Jiang family?
That's not possible. In the past, calling her Sister Jiang was a bit flirtatious. Later, calling her Miss Jiang was because I could see that she was extraordinary, so I called her Miss out of respect.
But now, they have become partners and call each other sister out of affection.
In just a few breaths, Liu Feiyang had a lot on his mind. Before he could figure out why he was angry, he heard someone in his ear: "Brother Liu, let's go. Are you trying to fool me, your elder sister?"
"No..." Liu Feiyang replied subconsciously, but it didn't seem right: "Miss Jiang...I'm older than you, so no matter how you count, it's not too much to call me brother."
Jiang Kexin walked to the door, glanced at Liu Feiyang beside her, and looked him up and down with a sarcastic look: "You call me sister, I call you brother, this is just to fit the situation."
After saying that, he strode out, and Liu Feiyang hurriedly chased after him: "Listen to my explanation, as long as we respect each other, we can call each other like this..."
After hearing this explanation, Ke Xin couldn't help but roll her eyes. It was pure bullshit!
But he politely replied: "Brother, in our village, we also call people we respect brother. Let's follow the local customs."
Liu Feiyang stopped, holding the fan, not knowing which hand to put it in, and wondered, is this how it is?
......
In the carriage, Liu Feiyang sat on one side of the car, glanced at Ke Xin who was leaning on the window to look at the scenery, then looked at the father and son who were talking, and finally set his sights on Jiang Xin who was staring at him.
"Mr. Jiang, does your village really have such a respectful name for people?"
Jiang Xin nodded: "Yes."
His serious face made Liu Feiyang unable to suspect anything, and he replied half-heartedly, "Oh, I see."
But I always feel like something is wrong, but I can't put my finger on it.
After admiring the scenery outside, Ke Xin finally put her mind back to the task, her face full of excitement: "The carriage is really fast. It just overtook an ox cart, and in the blink of an eye, it overtook the other one and disappeared without a trace!"
Liu Feiyang raised his eyebrows proudly and said proudly, "Of course, my horse is a Ferghana horse."
A Ferghana horse is worth a lot of money in itself, and a good breed is hard to come by.
"Why are you showing off? It's just a BMW, you act like everyone owns one." Ke Xin glanced at the playboy.
In the past, her BMW could outspeed this horse by two blocks. Was she proud?
Liu Feiyang: ...BMWs are everywhere on the streets nowadays. Are they so worthless?
Several men from the Jiang family in the carriage looked at Liu Feiyang who was being bullied, and they were all thinking about one thing: why did this kid provoke Jiuer, who could break two balls with one kick?
Liu Feiyang touched his nose awkwardly and shouted to Xiao Wu who was driving the car outside the carriage: "When will we get here if you keep dawdling? Hurry up."
Xiao Wu on Xuanyuan: ...
The horses' limbs and hooves were flying. If they had gone any faster, they would have flown into the sky.
There was silence in the carriage for a while. Liu Feiyang felt that it was not a good idea to sit there so awkwardly, so he took out the lunch box and took out several plates of exquisite snacks from it.
"This is a product of the famous Zhaixiangju in the capital. It's in short supply every day, and you have to queue up every time to buy it. Come and try it."
Exquisite dim sum are only eaten by wealthy families or those who are not short of money. Ordinary people only eat some caozigao or something like that. Ke Xin looked at the plates of dim sum on the small table. They looked good and gave off an enticing sweet smell.
She didn't act pretentiously. She picked one up and tasted it. It was crispy and sweet, with a fragrant taste and moderate sweetness.
The other plate contained date paste dessert, which tasted too sweet and not as delicious as the first one.
Liu Feiyang watched her eat snacks but it didn't seem like she was eating them, it would be more accurate to say she was tasting them. After eating one, she either nodded or shook her head, and occasionally she would even have a look of disgust on her face, which made him dumbfounded.
You know, these snacks are very popular in the capital. Just this plate of snacks will cost at least one or two taels of silver, and fifty servings are made every day.
"how?"
Ke Xin replied calmly, "Except for this almond pastry, the rest are unacceptable."
"Either they're too sweet, or they're so soft that they break when you pinch them, especially the last one. They have too little milk and eggs and too much water, so the texture is pretty bad. The first few desserts must have been made by one chef, and the last one by another."
Liu Feiyang: ....
She ate it and commented on it. The key point is that she could actually tell whether the dim sum was made by the same chef.
