Zhong Tingyue frowned and pretended to be displeased: "Take it as long as you are told."
The three of them were afraid that she would be unhappy, so they took it, but they felt a little happy in their hearts.
After breakfast the next day, Zhong Tingyue took Tang Yulian to the town to sell pearl flowers.
Zhong Tingyue specially found a good-looking piece of cloth, found a suitable place, spread the cloth, and picked out the two most beautiful bead flowers in the basket, one was put on her head, and the other was Wear it on Tang Yulian's head.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Why haven't you started selling it yet, and you've just put it on yourself? And she already had one last night.
Zhong Tingyue only said coldly to let her look at it, and then placed the beaded flowers in the basket.
"Girls, come and take a look. The most fashionable beaded flowers in the city are said to be the ones that all the noble ladies in the city are vying to wear. It was not easy for us to get the goods."
As soon as her voice came out, others saw the eye-catching beaded flower on her head, which was so beautiful.
There is no girl who doesn't love beauty. As soon as they heard what she said, they gathered around her. When they saw that the flower was indeed a flower that had never been seen in the town, they asked.
"Your pearl flowers must be very expensive, right?"
Zhong Tingyue heard the girl's question and approached her mysteriously: "No, this flower can be sold for twenty coins in the county town, but this is my internal price. Anyone who knows it can get it from the town." It only sells for fifteen cents."
Although she spoke close to the girl, her voice was not quiet, and everyone nearby heard her words.
"Seriously?" Others looked at her with disbelief.
Tang Yulian now understood her mother-in-law's intention and hurriedly picked up the pearl flowers and handed them over to them.
"You will know if it is a good product or not. This beaded flower is also something we often wear."
When the man heard this, he took a look at the beads and flowers. Seeing that the workmanship and appearance were really unique in the town, he bought three of them at once.
Zhong Tingyue took out the cloth bag that had been made in advance and put it in it for her. The cloth of the cloth bag was very beautiful, and Song Qingrong also embroidered a beautiful word "Chen" on it.
The girl liked the bag very much when she saw it.
"Your surname is Shen? That's why you write the character Shen on it?"
Zhong Tingyue responded with a smile: "Girl, when buying pearl flowers from now on, look for the word "our". The rest will be pirated. When the store opens, everyone can use this cloth bag to exchange for things."
"You want to open a store?"
Zhong Tingyue raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Of course, the things sold in our store will definitely be unique."
Tang Yulian was completely speechless by her mother-in-law's surprise, and she also sold a lot of these pearl flowers in a short period of time.
Ling Xiaohan was sitting on the carriage and heard the woman's familiar voice. He opened the curtain and saw her selling things with a smile. He immediately became interested and asked someone to stop the carriage and come to her stall.
"Girl, how do you sell these pearl flowers?"
"One for fifteen cents, two for twenty-eight cents."
Zhong Tingyue looked up and saw Ling Xiaohan, surprise flashed in her eyes, and she asked subconsciously.
"Shopkeeper Ling is buying this for his wife?"
Ling Xiaohan originally wanted to deny it, but when he saw her serious expression, he couldn't help but want to tease her.
"Well, buy two to make her happy."
Zhong Tingyue also asked casually. She didn't expect that he really had a wife. It seemed that he would have to avoid suspicion in the future. With this in mind, he picked the two most beautiful ones, and also gave one as a gift. He packed it and handed it to him.
Ling Xiaohan took it and gave it to the boy next to him, looking at her with beautiful phoenix eyes.
"Miss Zhong doesn't sell bamboo weaving anymore?"
"The bamboo weaving business has been handed over to my eldest daughter-in-law. I plan to do something else."
Ling Xiaohan thought of the recipe she gave him that day, and asked someone to bring him ten taels of silver.
"I tasted the recipe you gave me last time and thought it was very good, so I asked them to sell it in a restaurant. It has been selling very well these days. This is the recipe money for you. Please ask me to help you solve it. I have already solved the matter, so you don’t have to worry when you come to this town in the future.”
Zhong Tingyue didn't expect him to solve it so quickly. She thanked him and thought of what she said to her youngest son that day, so she didn't accept the money.
"That recipe is my reward for asking you to help me. If I accept your money now, I owe you a favor, so no need."
Ling Xiaohan was surprised. He had thought that she was willing to give him the recipe that day just to ask for his help. And she seemed to be quite short of money. He originally thought that if he gave it at this time, she would definitely not be able to give it to him. Will she refuse? Who will miss her or not?
Forget it, Ling Xiaohan felt that he was trying to catch up with others and was not grateful, so he accepted the money and gave her forty-two Wen.
"Since you are unwilling to accept my money, I naturally cannot take advantage of you. Three pearls cost forty-two cents, so you can accept it."
Zhong Tingyue nodded and accepted the money with a natural expression. However, Ling Xiaohan didn't know what to say for a moment, so he turned around and left.
Watching Ling Xiaohan leave, Zhong Tingyue had an inexplicable feeling, and then came back to her senses to entertain the guests.
However, Tang Yulian watched the whole process and felt very strange. When did her mother become so familiar with shopkeeper Ling?
After selling for half a day, the two sold out all the beaded flowers and made a total of twenty taels of silver. Although they were not as much as they could earn from selling bamboo weaving at one time, it took less time and in total it was still faster than making money from bamboo weaving.
Zhong Tingyue counted the money, and after extracting the cost, gave half of it to Tang Yulian.
"this is yours."
"Mom, you bought these flowers from the county town. I just helped sell them. You should get more."
"You can take it as long as you want. If you are one family and don't talk about two families, you will have more money on hand and it will be easier to handle anything in the future."
Tang Yulian was moved in her heart, feeling that such a tough Zhong Tingyue was not the same as before, but made people feel warm.
With this in mind, she continued: "Mom, next time you take me with you to the city to buy Zhuhua."
Zhong Tingyue nodded and agreed: "The weather has been a bit cold these days, and there are few quilts at home for the winter. I will buy a few today."
Speaking of this, Zhong Tingyue felt a little ashamed. Except for the quilts in the room of the original owner and her eldest son, the other rooms were covered with thin quilts even in winter. Even if they spent money to buy them, the original owner would snatch them away. Just don't let them cover it.
Tang Yulian paused after hearing this and responded.
Zhong Tingyue looked at the white washed clothes on her body and remembered that none of them seemed to have any new clothes. When she decided to make money next time, she would buy materials for them to make clothes for them to wear.
In this way, the two bought two quilts and went back, one for each of the second and third children.
Shen Erhai came in from the outside with a smile. His eyes lit up when he saw his wife wearing beaded flowers. He walked up to her and whispered, "My wife, you look so beautiful today."
