Wonderful Life After Exchanging Fate

Chapter 19

Jiang Yunzhu smoothed the scattered hair around her ears and got on the donkey cart.

Xu Qingshan drove the donkey cart away.

Chen stood there watching for a long time before entering the yard with a smile, but saw Yang Sheng and Shen Fengming coming out of the side room.

She was slightly taken aback, she thought the two borrowed merchants had already left!

If it is really a merchant who has lost his way and borrowed a place, it is natural for him to leave at dawn to make a living.

But Yang Sheng and Shen Fengming are not.

The two of them also went out in the morning, not long after Jiang Yunzhu and the others went out. They went up the mountain and checked the situation of Wuling Mine. Afterwards, Yang Sheng clamored to go back to Jiang’s house for dinner, and they came back soon.

Seeing Chen’s expression, Yang Sheng changed his mind, and quickly said, “Auntie, we want to collect some grain in this village, do you know who has grain and wants to sell it?”

It turned out that this was the case, now Mrs. Chen really believed that they were merchants selling food.

“After dinner, I’ll go to the village head’s house and ask for you,” she said.

Hearing that there was going to be a meal, Yang Sheng regained his energy. He walked around the mountain early in the morning. He was cold and hungry, and he wanted to eat a long time ago.

What are we eating today? The soup yesterday was good, the pancakes were good, and the side dishes were also well done…

When Mrs. Chen brought the rice, Yang Sheng squeezed the dusty thing in his hand, and asked Shen Fengming with his eyes, is this pancake? Why this color.

The sorghum pancakes were of this color, and Mrs. Chen was a little embarrassed. Jiang Yunzhu was not at home, and there was nothing else at home, so he could only let the two guests eat this.

This is also their daily food.

Shen Fengming ignored Yang Sheng at all, took the pancake and ate it. He ate slowly, without any abnormality, Yang Sheng thought the pancakes looked ugly, but they actually tasted good.

So hard, he took a big bite, and then he… began to miss Jiang Yunzhu!

After dinner, Mrs. Chen went to the village chief’s house and said that two grain merchants had come to his house, and asked him if there was anyone in the village who wanted to sell grain.

Gu Yongde thought about it, and there really is.

After a while, Mrs. Chen came back with a smile on her face.

Yang Sheng heard that someone really wanted to sell grain, so he twitched his lips and looked at Shen Fengming, what should he do, is he really going to collect grain?

Shen Fengming looked at him calmly.

After a long while, Yang Sheng sighed, and went out with Mrs. Chen, he had to bear the lies he told himself.

At this time, Jiang Yunzhu had already arrived in the town. Along the way, she had already thought about what to buy, and even where to buy it, so she got off the donkey cart and went straight to the market.

Let’s go buy some food for Vice General Zhao and the three of them to cook at noon. She is afraid that some things will be sold out if it is too late.

The black-faced customer ordered fatty intestines, and she went to the butcher’s stall.

“Pig intestines? There are some today, but they are reserved for old customers.” The butcher said.

Jiang Yunzhu frowned, wondering where there was a meat stall in the town.

“There are not many people who buy that thing, and you have to make an appointment every day.” The boss explained, seeing Jiang Yunzhu’s embarrassed look, and said, “You are also my regular customer, so if you don’t want much , I’ll sell you some.”

Jiang Yunzhu was overjoyed immediately, she really didn’t want much, just one dish, if the boss sold her more, she didn’t know how to deal with it!

“Just right.” The boss took out a wooden barrel from under the meat stand, pulled out a section of pig intestines, and asked Jiang Yunzhu, “Are these enough?”

“enough!”

The boss cut the pig intestines with a knife, tied them with hemp rope, and handed them to Jiang Yunzhu.

Jiang Yunzhu put it away and asked if there was any beef today.

The boss shook his head. It is not easy for people to kill cows for two days in a row, and it is true that there is no such thing today. Don’t say he doesn’t have it here, the whole Hongye Town doesn’t have it.

Jiang Yunzhu didn’t force it, and bought a piece of pork.

Then she hurried to the fish stall. The weather was getting colder and there were fewer and fewer fish sellers. Fortunately, she came early today, and one of the fishmongers still had several carps in hand, so she picked the freshest one.

The main ingredients are available, and the rest is the ingredients. There is no need to rush this.

After walking through several stalls, she bought all the ingredients.

Then there are the materials used to make hot pepper soup and steamed buns today. This is easy to handle, and she knows the way to buy them all.

It seems that there is nothing to buy, right?

By the way, I have to buy one more thing. She went to the study on the east side of the town and bought some paper, a fine brush, and some ink. In the future, she will do takeaway, so she can’t do it without keeping accounts.

The owner of the study was very considerate, and cut the paper she bought into small sheets according to her requirements, and wrapped everything up and handed it to her.

Jiang Yunzhu went out with her things, Xu Qingshan was already waiting for her outside.

This time I really have to thank him, if it weren’t for him, it would be hard for her to take back so many things.

After everything was packed, Jiang Yunzhu felt hungry. There happened to be a biscuit seller on the side of the road, so she went over and bought two.

The biscuits are really well made, tender and crunchy, freshly baked, one bite, full of fragrance.

This sesame seed cake is stuffed with meat, pork belly and green onions are used, Jiang Yunzhu thought while eating, in fact, it would be delicious to replace it with dried plum vegetables and pork belly, and she suddenly thought of crab shell sesame cake, that would be delicious. When she has a chance, she will make a furnace and have a good time.

She was thinking wildly when she suddenly saw a porcelain seller on the street, with bowls, plates, ladles, cups, etc., each with a different design and color, which looked quite unique.

Jiang Yunzhu suddenly remembered something. She wants to take out food, and the tableware is also a problem. It’s easy to handle small stir-fries. It’s fine to use a bowl for rice and a plate for vegetables, but what about two meat and one vegetarian meals for work?

Stir and buckle together, or use three or four bowls?

Neither feels good. It would be great if the lunch boxes were divided into several areas like modern times.

Suddenly there was an idea in my heart.

“Girl, whatever you want to buy is cheap.” The stall owner was a middle-aged man.

“Boss, did you make all these things?” Jiang Yunzhu asked.

“Yes, it’s a family tradition.”

“I want to make a lunch box, but I don’t know if the boss can do it.”

“Girl, come and listen.”

Jiang Yunzhu told the man what she thought.

The man thought for a while and said, “It can be done. If you want it, I happen to be building a kiln in two days. I can do it for you. It can be done in about seven or eight days. What do you think?”

“Seven or eight days, how much does it cost to make one?”

The man thought for a while, “Seven cents, it’s cheaper to buy more, how many girls do you want?”

How many, this question stumped Jiang Yunzhu, she wanted to order a batch to start the takeaway business booming, but when she thought about what happened twelve days later, she didn’t dare to invest so much money.

She now thinks that the incident may be related to the iron mine. If so, it must not be the work of bandits as the government said. There is an army stationed in Wuling Mine, which bandit dares to run around here and make such a big commotion, are you tired of working?

Gu Yanzhou said that Shen Fengming did it, but she didn’t comment. What good will it do for Shen Fengming to do this? And even though he was called Shen Buliu, he used to kill corrupt officials and the like, and he had never heard of him massacring innocent people.

Who else would it be? Jiang Yunzhu didn’t know. But no matter if it’s Shen Fengming or someone else, that person must be a person with good hands and eyes, how can she fight against them as a commoner girl?

She wanted to observe for a few days first, and if there was no improvement in this matter before Lidong, she would think of a way to lure the villagers to the county town. She didn’t believe that those people dared to openly kill so many people in the county!

As for how to cheat, she hasn’t figured it out yet, it’s just an immature method she thought of on the way here just now.

Jiang Yunzhu remained silent, and the salesman thought she didn’t want it anymore, so he became anxious.

His family’s ancestral porcelain firing skills, I heard that his ancestors had a good time, but when he went to his grandfather, there was only a small kiln left, and he usually made a living by burning some dishes and bowls. But even so, his family used to be a well-fed family that everyone envied. But since the discovery of iron ore in Wuling Mountain, all the people around have gone to work in the mine, earning money like water.

When her daughter-in-law sees him now, she nags, saying who went to the mine today and how much money they earned back, and tomorrow they say who built a new house, and the family has meat to eat every now and then, and they can buy new clothes and so on.

As long as he makes this mud every day, the days get worse and worse.

He heard it in his ears and was anxious in his heart.

A few days ago, he gave himself one last chance and told his wife that if he could not make any money by the end of this month, he would go to the mine.

His daughter-in-law was naturally overjoyed, and even made him a bowl of egg noodles to nourish his body for the first time, but he was not happy at all, he was reluctant to part with the handicraft handed down from his family.

Seeing that the end of the month is getting closer and he hasn’t made much money yet, why is he in no hurry!
