"My mother knows, what's wrong? By the way, are you here to accept embroidery? raised his head and asked her.

"Take it! Your mother, are you sure you can take it? If you can, I'll give you fifteen copper coins for one."

Mu Rousang still did not know the cost, "Then how much is the thread worth?!"

"Each one costs 20 copper coins. If it's just the embroidery lotus pouches, you can get 30 or so." Just by this point, Mu Rousang felt that it was worth it. However, she had never thought that in the Zhuang family, one was just embroidering a simple flower, while the other two were spending a lot of effort. A completed purse would at most sell for eight cents.

"Lady Boss, I want the smallest one, how much is it?" "In addition, I want a bundle of multicolored cotton threads. Lady Boss, how about I tell my mother to buy all of the bags from you. My mother's embroidery is really good. It's a well-known skill from our place." Mu Rousang looked at the embroidery on her body.

With business coming to her, the female boss was naturally happy to be able to meet a good elderflower herb. "Alright, little girl, tell me, what little scheme do you have in mind, these things you want, that small shop name's flower stall costs two hundred big money, and I'll buy them for you. I'll give you ten coins for it, so I'll charge you two hundred and ten big money in total, and this is already very cheap."

There was something wrong with Mu Rousang, she just wanted to dig out the bones from the chicken eggs and kill off the price. "Lady Boss, look at the dust on that flower bush. It's a piece of old trash. You should sell it for a bit cheaper. 50 yuan, what do you think?" The Lady Boss's mouth twitched. This little girl was really vicious, hacking away three-quarters of her in one go.

"Little girl, I think you really want it. How about this, I won't earn your money. One hundred and eighty yuan, I really can't afford fifty yuan."

"Big sister, I got this money from digging wild vegetables in the mountain with my brother. It's really not much, so why don't you sell it to me at a cheaper price!" "Look, your business is booming here. Big Sis will definitely prosper."

The ancients had always been very particular about luck. The boss, who was a bit impatient, looked at her with a headache, "Little girl, how much can you afford? I'll sell it to you."

Mu Rousang lowered her head bashfully. The Lady Boss looked at her shoulders and said, "Hey, little girl, don't be sad, I didn't say I won't sell it to you. How about this? She was really afraid that Mu Rousang would cry inside her shop. The commoners who didn't know the truth and loved to watch would definitely spread the news that she was a stepmother.

Mu Rousang secretly pinched her thigh with her small hand and squeezed out two tears, "Big sister, you're really a good person!" Hearing this, the Lady Boss became nervous. "Little girl, it's better if you hurry up and tell me how much money you have!"

"I, I, I only have 150 gold coins in total." Mu Rousang looked at her with his small, wet eyes. As long as the Lady Boss did not agree with him, she would drop the golden beans, and although this kid had a small space, he still did not have the awareness of being a tycoon.

The Lady Boss looked at the surrounding customers. What kind of people are these? One by one, she pricked up her ears. "Little girl, I think you're a good kid. I'll compensate you with some books and sell you some, just treat it as me doing good every day." She regretted not having read the imperial calendar when she went out.

"Big Sis, you really are a very, very good person. It's just that ?" Mu Rousang rubbed his feet on the ground with his two little index fingers, his small eyes constantly looking at the small pieces of cloth in a basket at the corner. The Lady Boss was thinking about how to quickly send her away. "Look at me, even though you took the thread, you didn't bring any cloth right? How about this, I'll give you a pack of embroidery needles and a big bag of shredded fabric. Xiao Cui, come over here and take this little girl to pick out those shreds. "Also, the string and the tassel, along with the needles and rags, will cost her 150 gold coins in total." After that, she entered the room as fast as she could, unwilling to come out even if she died. She was really afraid of Mu Rousang.

Mu Rousang was satisfied, she smiled and looked at him: "Beautiful big sister, may I trouble you to help me put the things in our bamboo basket." She pointed to the basket of fabric, that girl called Xiao Cui, this little girl is too heartless, she wants to leave.

"Beautiful sister, look, we are dressed like this. This will affect our appearance. I think it's better if I bring this cloth back and slowly pick it." Mu Rousang said with a face that was full of thoughts for all of them, hurry up and help me pretend.

Xiao Cui looked into the room, and saw that the curtain was moving, but the Lady Boss was unable to come out, she was afraid that she would be embarrassed if she did. Seeing that the Lady Boss did not come out to stop them, Xiao Cui tacitly agreed. She nodded her head and took the hundred and fifty gold coins from Mu Jinzhi's hands. Then, she picked up the bamboo basket at his feet and tied up the fabric in the basket randomly and placed it inside the bamboo basket s.

Mu Rousang watched on from the side with a smile. All of these were top quality fabrics, and even though their colors were ugly, she did not forget what her senior did. As for how to match the colors well, that was her specialty.

"Little girl, I've already put the things away. If it's really just an embroidery needle, don't lose it. When the time comes, you'll be crying." Xiao Cui picked up a piece of cloth and tied it up, wrapping her up in a few layers. "Thank you, beautiful big sister!" Before she left, she purposely shouted towards the curtain, "Big sister, you're a good person. I'll come often!"

Satisfied with the sound he heard from behind the curtain, he pulled Mu Jinzhi out of the shop.

When the two of them went out, Mu Jinzhi looked at the young Mu Rousang. In order to save some money and use all kinds of tricks, he did not think too deeply about why Mu Rousang had become so smart.

"Alright, bro, let's go buy some salt and soy sauce!" Mu Rousang pulled his hand. She was very happy, but this time she saved a lot of money. Now, Mu Jinzhi only had 46 gold left on him. These days, it was all thanks to the saltless soy sauce dish. The food had no taste, so the taste of the bird had long faded from Mu Rousang's mouth.

Mu Jinzhi thought for a while, "Little sister, we still need to buy some corn flour to return to Second Aunt." "AHH!" Mu Rousang patted the back of her head, she had almost forgotten about this. Brother, how much is a catty of cornmeal? "

"Mu Jinzhi touched her head. This was the first time he saw Mu Rousang so happy, and it was all his fault for not being able to do it. When Mother was at home, Mother and I came to the rice shop. The corn grits cost eight cents a catty and the cornmeal cost ten cents a catty. " Ah, looks like that 46 yuan isn't enough. Her small eyes rolled back and forth, thinking that the corn in the space would soon be ripe. How about I just buy a little bit to go back and eat, then when the space is reaped, I can return it to Second Aunt's home.

"Brother, why don't we buy less and eat on our own? Anyway, if we sell the food in a few days, we can return it to the Qin Er."

"Is that okay? Chinese toon knows about us. "

Mu Rousang thought about it carefully and felt that it was reasonable, so she decided to not fuss about the money anymore. Brother, are you hungry!? " It was only then that Mu Jinzhi noticed that it was already noon, and the fragrance of vegetables was drifting along the street.

"Little sister, big brother will buy some meat buns for you to eat!" Mu Jinzhi pulled her small hand, and carried the small bamboo basket on his back to a steamed bun vendor. "Big brother, let's go get another bowl of noodles." With this bit of money, Mu Rousang's nature of enjoying life began to slowly reveal itself. Mu Jinzhi looked at the steaming noodles, then looked at his sister. For the first time, he was conflicted about whether this bowl of noodles was worth a few coins.

"Little girl, do you want to eat noodles?" Wuu wuu, the white noodles were too fragrant, Mu Rousang's stomach started to growl right away. Little sister, why don't big brother buy you a bowl of noodles. I ate too much last night, so I'm still not hungry. " He patted her dry and flat stomach, but Mu Rousang didn't expose him, so she could clearly hear his stomach growling.

She stretched out two little fingers and said, "Boss, two bowls of noodles and two meat buns, how much does it cost?" "The fat boss originally thought that these two kids would at most buy two steamed buns." "Little girl, a meat bun is worth one gold coin, a bowl of vegetarian noodles is worth two gold coins, a total of six gold coins."

Mu Rousang said to Mu Jinzhi, "Brother, we still have to travel a long way in the afternoon, do you have the strength to carry me back? I'm so tired today. "

Mu Jinzhi was heartbroken. He took Mu Rousang out for a trip and almost half of the money was gone, "I only want a meat bun, we just need a bowl of noodles." Mu Rousang still wanted a bowl more, but Mu Jinzhi insisted on it this time, so he could only take a step back and eat a bowl of noodles with him.

After paying four coins, the owner brought two meat buns and a bowl of plain noodles. "Little sister, come here. Eat the noodles first. Once the steamed buns have been eaten, the noodles will taste bad." Mu Jinzhi pushed the noodles to her, "Brother, let's eat together!" She put a pair of chopsticks in his hand.

"Little sister, you eat first. Big brother doesn't like eating noodles, and besides, big brother really isn't hungry!" Mu Jinzhi insisted that she eat first, and she pretended not to be happy, "If brother doesn't eat, I won't eat either!"

The boss couldn't bear to watch any longer, "Little guy, just eat it. I see that your sister is starving. If you keep pushing it, the noodles won't taste good anymore. Adding on the broth won't cost any money."

Mu Jinzhi reached out his chopsticks and carefully picked up a few pieces of noodles. He squinted his eyes, and the corners of his eyes were moist. He had not eaten noodles in a long time, and that was when his father was still alive.

Mu Rousang sighed in her heart. In the future, she would not let Mu Jinzhi suffer anymore. After that, her family had white rice every day, enough white noodles, fish for meals, and chicken for every meal. In the end, Mu Jinzhi was still young, and because he was starving, he unknowingly ate a large half of the bowl.

When he found out that the bowl was real, only a small amount of the noodles remained floating at the bottom, he lowered his head with a blush. "Sorry, little sister, it was big brother's fault!"

Mu Rousang extended her small hand to hold his, "Brother, I'm already full to the brim after eating a meat bun. I'm a little thirsty so I can eat some soup. She even patted her stomach, thinking that she really had eaten her fill.

Most of the business people in this dynasty were quite honest. A meat bun was already as big as a small bowl, and there were a lot of meat stuffing in it. After Mu Rousang finished the noodles in the bowl and drank some soup, Mu Jinzhi saw that she was really holding on and thus, he finished the remaining broth himself.

"Bro, let's bring two steamed buns to Peach Blossom!" Mu Rousang was not a stingy person. The Qin Er's family had always been very good to her and Mu Jinzhi. This time, Mu Jinzhi didn't hesitate and bought four big buns, which was also worth two coins.

Seeing that Mu Rousang did not understand, he explained, "Other than Chinese toon, there are still four people in Second Aunt's family. After the two of them had eaten their fill, they discussed how to buy noodles first, and then went to the market to see if there were any chickens.

Mu Jinzhi brought Mu Rousang to the town's only rice shop, and the two of them went into the shop, "Boss, how much is this for?" Mu Rousang pointed to the white mask. She had already planned in his heart that he would buy some white flour and go back to put on an act. He would also buy some wheat seeds and return some rice seeds to plant in the space so that she wouldn't have to worry about eating any more.

This rice shop didn't have a long counter. The owner sat at a table behind a pile of rice and said, "Little girl, this white noodle is expensive. 20 taels of gold per catty, this yellow one only costs 15 taels of gold." Mu Jinzhi pointed to the cornmeal and asked, "Boss, how much is one catty of cornmeal?"

The boss was annoyed seeing him and Mu Rousang dressed in such tattered clothes. However, since the door was open for business, he could not open his mouth to kick them out, but his tone was impatient, as if he did not want to sell them, "Um, ten coins. This grubber only wants eight coins, are you willing to buy it?" Mu Rousang raised her head and retorted, "Boss, we are here to buy something, why do you not seem to welcome us to buy anything?
