Chapter 168 Pastoral Life
"Also, since the weather is not very cold now, you can also set up a big table and several wooden stools in the yard. You can sit in the yard at noon to eat, or you can sit there picking vegetables and bask in the sun."
"Create a vegetable garden in the yard, leave a walkable path, and spread it out with some stones..."
Xia Tiannuan's face glowed brightly as he thought about that scene.
This gives it an idyllic feel.
Seeing Xia Tiannuan in such a good mood, Gu Luoheng also had a slight smile on his face.
As long as she is happy, his mood will improve.
"Didn't you make several boxes of facial masks and don't plan to sell them?"
Speaking of this, Xia Tiannuan sighed and said: "We have no reputation at all now. Selling this thing for takeout is not convincing, and no one dares to use it."
"When we become famous in other businesses and sell these facial masks, people will believe them, and the effects will be visible once we use them."
"Besides, this thing won't be effective in a short time. You need to do it regularly to see it."
Suddenly Xia Tiannuan thought of something.
Her eyes lit up, "By the way, soap, you can use it to make soap. It's very clean when washing clothes and things."
"And the effect of using this thing is very obvious. You can see it at once, so you don't have to worry about sales."
Gu Luoheng didn't know what soap was, but Xia Tiannuan said it could clean clothes and things. He probably understood that it was almost as effective as acacia leaves.
When we were in the tribe, everyone used honey locust leaves picked from the mountains to wash their clothes and things.
"Come on, let's go home and do these."
With that said, Xia Tiannuan took Gu Luoheng's sleeve and walked back, taking a carriage at the east end of the town.
Now Lin Rong was waiting for them there with his carriage.
Gu Luoheng looked at the hand held by Xia Tiannuan, his body stiffened and his eyes narrowed.
Just when passing by the entrance of an alley, Xia Tiannuan discovered that this place was actually a market, selling vegetables, chicken, duck, meat and other things, which was equivalent to a vegetable market.
Xia Tiannuan let go of Gu Luoheng's hand, touched his chin and walked over and said, "Let's buy some duck eggs!"
Gu Luoheng nodded.
Whatever Xia Tiannuan does, he supports it.
Xia Tiannuan took a look and found a stooped old lady sitting in the corner with a basket in front of her.
Occasionally someone passes by, asks about it and then leaves.
Looking at the old lady, Xia Tiannuan seemed to have been sitting there all morning.
She looked at the passers-by with a sad look on her face, but she didn't seem to be very good at shouting.
Xia Tiannuan walked over, knelt down and said, "Old lady, may I ask, how do you sell these duck eggs?"
The old lady looked at the beautiful little girl in front of her and said with a loving smile: "Little girl, these duck eggs are from our own ducks. They are big and good. They cost two cents each. There are a total of twenty in this basket."
A duck egg, saved for a long time."
The old lady looked at Xia Tiannuan almost flatteringly.
I thought that Xia Tiannuan was going to bargain, but I didn't expect that Xia Tiannuan directly took out forty copper coins and handed it to the old lady.
"Old lady, I want this basket of duck eggs. This is forty cents. Take it."
The old lady couldn't believe it. She stretched out her trembling hands to receive the copper coins.
Xia Tiannuan could tell that the old lady's hands were thick and calloused, her fingers were thick, and some of them were deformed. At first glance, they looked like hands that had been working all year round.
Xia Tiannuan felt a little uncomfortable, but she could only help so much.
The old lady held the copper coins in both hands and said excitedly: "Thank you girl, thank you girl."
The old lady carefully collected the copper coins, said a few words to Xia Tiannuan, and then left with the basket.
She can go back to the village. She usually sells duck eggs, but sometimes she may not be able to sell them even if she stays in the town for a day.
The old lady was really happy.
With these forty cents, the family's life will be slightly better.
Gu Luoheng watched from the side and understood in his heart that Xia Tiannuan was actually the softest and kindest person in his heart.
Xia Tiannuan bought some more duck eggs.
"Is there any use in buying these duck eggs?"
There are more than eighty duck eggs in their hands.
Xia Tiannuan said: "It can be used to pickle preserved eggs, and you can also make money by selling preserved eggs."
“And it’s simple and easy, and doesn’t require much effort.”
"You only need to buy duck eggs, marinate them, and put them there. When the time comes, they will be ready and can be sold in the town."
“And this thing is easy to store, so you don’t have to worry about it breaking after being stored for a long time.”
Xia Tiannuan cannot live solely on the things in the space farm villa, and the things in the space farm villa are limited. She must have her own business in this era.
There are also sweet potatoes in the space that can also be made into vermicelli.
After Xia Tiannuan bought the duck eggs, she and Gu Luoheng got on the carriage and went back.
It is the early autumn season at this time. If you lift the curtains of your car, you can smell the fresh air in the wind. Even the wind is refreshing.
Looking at the countryside in the distance and the smoke from the village, people can't help but relax.
In the last technological era, the pace was always very fast, and you couldn't relax even if you wanted to.
But it's different here, everything here is slow.
People in the village always sit at sunrise and rest at sunset. When there is no life on the mountain, everyone will gather at the door in twos and threes, sitting on stools and talking.
Even when picking vegetables, many people in the village would sit at the door with baskets, talking to their neighbors, picking vegetables while talking, and they were not in a hurry to cook.
Anyway, just eat before dark.
On the path leading to the village, Xia Tiannuan suddenly saw the old lady.
She carried the empty basket, stooped her body, and staggered inside.
Xia Tiannuan looked at Gu Luoheng and said, "She looks like her legs are very bad. Did she just walk to town carrying a basket of duck eggs in the morning?"
Gu Luoheng looked at Xia Tiannuan's expression and said, "She looks like she is going back to the village. You can give her a ride."
Xia Tiannuan felt that Gu Luoheng really understood her thoughts.
She said to Lin Rong: "Lin Rong, stop the carriage when it passes the old lady."
"good."
When the carriage passed by, Lin Rong stopped the carriage.
As if hearing the sound, the old lady slowly turned around and saw a carriage. The old lady tensed up instinctively.
She hurriedly took a few steps to the side of the field for fear of bumping into the noble man.
At this moment, Gu Luoheng opened the curtain for Xia Tiannuan.
Xia Tiannuan sat on the carriage and said softly: "Old lady, where are you going? We live in Yunhe Village and we are just returning to the village. I thought I would give you a ride on the way."
The old lady's old eyes widened suddenly, "Gu... girl, you... are you from Yunhe Village too?"
The old lady lived in Yunhe Village, but she had never seen this beautiful and kind-hearted girl in front of her.
When Xia Tiannuan heard what the old lady said, he understood.
"Old lady, are you from Yunhe Village? Come on up, we are going back to the village."
