C23 The Food Was Delicious

When Mrs Huo saw her expression, the good impression in her heart increased by a few points.

Since Jiang Wan said that there was something she wanted to buy at home, Mrs Huo took her directly to the grocery store.

Mrs Huo introduced the place, "This is the biggest grocery store in the county. The owner's surname is Shi and the good price isn't too expensive. Everyone loves to come here to buy things."

Jiang Wan nodded with a smile. Then, she saw Mrs Huo greeting the woman behind the counter familiarly, "Sister Shi, are you busy? I've brought a new neighbor here to find the way, so you don't have to worry about us.

"Alright, sister, go ahead and take a look. If you need anything, just take it."

The woman laughed.

It was Jiang Wan's first time coming to an ancient store, so she couldn't help but be a little curious.

Mrs Huo, who was standing at the side, thought that she didn't go out often, so she didn't ask too much.

Jiang Wan slowly looked around. From the entrance to the corner, she had almost understood all the goods sold in the shop. After picking out a few items that were missing from her house, she walked towards the counter.

There were no customers left at the counter, only Mrs Huo and the woman. Jiang Wan smiled as she passed the items over, saying, "That's all. I'll have to trouble sister-in-law to figure out how much it will cost."

"Since you came here with Sister Huo, the price definitely won't be too expensive. Don't worry, we at Tonghua County are not bullies." With one hand, she flipped through the items. With the other hand, she fiddled with the abacus, but after a while, she stopped. She wrapped the item up and handed it over while smiling, "There is a total of two taels of silver. Take well."

2 taels of silver …

Although Jiang Wan was a noble wife, she didn't have much money. When she heard the sum of money, she felt a great deal of pain.

However, the items she had just picked out were indeed things that her family needed.

The days had to go by. Although the Duke of Guo's estate had brought many things with them this time, most of them were precious items. If they weren't that useful, then they still had to buy.

After that, Jiang Wan didn't act rashly when she went shopping again.

Under Mrs Huo's introduction, Jiang Wan took a stroll through the shops on the Furong Street s at an extremely fast speed.

In the end, the two of them sat down in a teahouse for a while to rest.

"Elder sister, there aren't many stores on the Furong Street. Just now, when I scanned through, was there only one clinic?"

Jiang Wan was a modern man, so naturally, she was most concerned about the medical conditions of the ancient era. After all, she had just arrived at the capital and had already given birth to a child, so if the Duke of Guo's estate wasn't considered noble in the capital and hadn't invited a good doctor, she would have had no choice but to look up at the sky and wait for her death.

Mrs Huo took a sip of her tea and nodded, "Yes, Tonghua County is barren, and the common people are poor. Even eating is a problem, how can we spare money to see a doctor? If it really isn't good, then go and get some medicine. Even though the Rongde Hall you saw was called a doctor's shop, it was actually just a Elder Doctor with two apprentices, who said it was a medicine shop or something. "

"Ah!"

Jiang Wan found it hard to believe.

Mrs Huo was afraid that she would be scared, so she hurriedly comforted her with a smile, "Actually, there's no need to worry. That Elder Doctor is an excellent doctor, and if she has any problems, he can usually treat them. He's just a bit old."

After drinking a pot of tea, Mrs Huo told Jiang Wan about the general situation of Tonghua County. Seeing that it was getting late, Jiang Wan suggested to eat something at a nearby restaurant.

"What are you still eating outside for such a short distance? It's fine if you just go home to eat."

Mrs Huo was afraid that she would run out of money, so she quickly declined with a wave of her hand. Then, thinking of something, she said: "What? Would Little Wan like to take another look around later? "

Jiang Wan scratched her head in embarrassment. "Actually, I also want to take a good look at the rouge shop and the cloth farm later."

Mrs Huo nodded in realization, but didn't insist.

Jiang Wan's heart ached because of the money she spent that day, but there was nothing she could do. How could she ask someone to follow her out and not eat?

However, there wasn't much to eat in the restaurant. Most of the dishes were made from greasy fish. Jiang Wan only had a taste before she stopped eating. Mrs Huo, on the other hand, ate quite sweetly.
