Xiangli liked the skirt very much when she saw it, but neither she nor Mrs. Wang bought it. Instead, they picked two plain-colored pieces.
Xiangli was still observing filial piety, so she couldn't dress up too fancy. Another thing, if Yang Xu was gone, she had to go to the Yamen to get information. As an outsider, she didn't need to dress up too gorgeously, and it didn't matter if people looked down on her.
But women always have a love for beauty. Xiangli looked at the embroidery displayed in the album and couldn't put it down. She also had a good craftsmanship, but she couldn't compare with the nanny Wang Po.
"Man, we want this latest embroidery pattern album."
Li Haitang opened her mouth to buy, buy, buy. Mrs. Wang cooked for everyone along the way, and Xiangli also helped take care of her son Doubao. She couldn't be stingy about reciprocating a favor.
If you pay hard, you will gain. If Mrs. Wang does her embroidery well, she will be able to help in the future.
"Madam, this is too expensive."
Mrs. Wang didn't even dare to say it. Even so, her eyes were still staring at the album, wanting to stick to it.
It was worthy of being the capital of Daqi. The picture album was really beautiful, and some of the patterns would look great on embroidered screens. She had never seen them in the North.
The waiter listened to a few people chatting and had an idea. He was probably the family member of an adult who was returning to Beijing to report on his work. Ordinary merchants did not have such discernment.
In her eyes, merchants have no taste, especially the nouveau riche, who wear gold and silver because they are afraid that others will not know that they are rich. They are a model of stupid people who have too much money.
"Mommy, you are very discerning. These looks were only made yesterday."
Seeing this, the clerk was willing to chat a little more and said with a smile, "It's just the latest styles. We in Kyoto update quickly, and some of them are brought from overseas.
"Out to sea?"
Mrs. Wang was surprised. She heard Li Haitang mention this thing from the open sea on the way. She was just a servant of a merchant family and didn't even have a chance to see the world.
"exactly."
Although the other party was surprised, she did not show any confusion or doubt, which made the man even more convinced of her guess.
In the most prosperous area of Kyoto's Ten Mile Long Street, there is a Treasure Pavilion, which is dedicated to displaying objects from the sea.
Things are rare and expensive, and they are only shipped once every year and a half. They are all rare and highly sought-after. Of course, the prices are also staggering.
Li Haitang thanked the clerk, thinking that Zhenbao Pavilion was included in his mind, and he must go for a walk if he had time.
She is a modern person, what has she not seen before? It was just that she was curious about the things in the open sea at this time. Through the things, she could infer the life of the people in the open sea.
Once you buy the fabric, the rest will be much easier.
Mrs. Wang mainly cooks chili peppers, which may not be produced in farms in Kyoto. Passing by a grocery store, the group bought chili peppers.
There are many kinds of grocery stores in Kyoto, and there are also special seasoning shops on the streets, including cumin, bay leaves, cinnamon, and common star anise. Li Haitang took Mrs. Wang to buy them, and they all bought a small bag.
Stewed meat with these seasonings can remove the fishy smell of the meat. If you go to the village today, you will definitely have a celebration meal, and Dongpo Pork is one of the dishes.
Mrs. Wang is good at cooking spicy dishes, and she can also cook dishes from the south.
On the way there, there was a restaurant in the south. After eating Dongpo Pork, Mrs. Wang quickly identified the ingredients and copied them exactly.
This is talent, talent for cooking!
"The village is big, has many rooms, and has a separate small courtyard. You're welcome, just stay there for now."
Li Haitang was afraid that the master and servant could not let go, so he promised, "Xiangli, I treat you as my sister, and you don't want to have anything to do with me as my sister. Zhuangzi is a private property in my name. You can stay here as long as you want." !”
After hearing this, Xiangli's eyes were red, and she held Li Haitang's hand. She was so grateful that she was so excited that she couldn't speak.
Secretly, she and the wet nurse lamented that if they had not met Li Haitang, it would have been extremely difficult for the master and servant to get to Kyoto, and they might not have been able to survive after learning the news about Yang Xu.
There are many cars and people in Kyoto, so I went into the city in the morning and my shopping was delayed for an hour. By the time I arrived at the small village in the southern suburbs, it was already the beginning of the afternoon.
Li Duanji was about to go out to do errands when he saw a carriage coming at the entrance of the village. He took a closer look and almost sat down on the ground.
"Oh my aunt!"
Li Duanjie stepped forward obsequiously, his face full of joy. He was left in Kyoto to make connections and was waiting for this aunt to come.
"I've been waiting for you to come!"
Xiaozhuangzi is not big, but the house is exquisite, especially in the back, and there is a private hot spring. In the winter, he soaked in the hot spring to relax his muscles and activate his blood circulation, and his legs and feet improved a lot.
"Yes, it's finally here."
At present, Li Duanjie is equivalent to her housekeeper in Zhuangzi. After all, Zhuangzi previously belonged to Zhang Ruyi's mother's dowry property. It still takes a lot of effort to take over Zhuangzi from outsiders.
It took Li Duanji almost a year to get everything in order.
On Zhuangzi, for the sake of the environment, he did not raise chickens or ducks, but only grew fruits and vegetables. However, his own tenants raised livestock and ducks in the pond.
Last month, Li Duanji just harvested a batch of duck eggs, and Aunt Chen helped pickle them. When I ate them today, the oil was coming out!
For more than a year, Li Duanji had a lot to say. Every time he was asked to deliver things or letters to Beidi, he could only say the important ones and hold back some words.
"Okay, Butler Li, this is not a place to reminisce about old times. If I didn't know better, I would have thought you didn't welcome us."
Li Haitang was also very happy to see her old friend. She didn't have a strong sense of class. She learned that Li Duanji liked to eat fermented bean curd from her hometown, so she brought a small jar with her.
A small favor can sometimes touch people's hearts more than a thousand pieces of gold.
Sure enough, Li Duanji solemnly thanked her, Madam, it's so kind of her. He is a small person, but a cripple. He used to live in Sunset Mountain. If Madam Li hadn't given her a chance, he would still be a bandit now.
During the Chinese New Year this year, he was rich, so he asked someone to bring back many Kyoto specialties to his parents. For the first time, the two elders could feel proud and proud, without being criticized by the villagers and getting looks of envy.
How many years have passed since Li Duanji came to the forefront? He must do a good job!
Not only that, he also fell in love with the girl Chunmei in Zhuangzi. He has been begging Aunt Chen for help in the past few days. If Chunmei is interested, he will have a wife!
People are in high spirits when happy events happen. Li's short legs are walking with wind, his eyes are bright and his mouth is grinning.
Well, this time, Madam is here, maybe she can help with the matchmaking, what a coincidence!
"Madam, look at this little guy's memory!"
Li Duanjiu set aside the best courtyard in the village, and after renovation, all the decorations inside were newly purchased. Aunt Chen went to clean it in two or three days, and the windows were bright and clean.
"This is the girl I met on the road, Xiangli. She is her nanny, who arranged a small courtyard with a quiet environment for them." On the way into the village, Li Haitang introduced Xiangli and Mrs. Wang, and took a look at the surrounding environment. Everything was pretty much as she imagined, the fruit trees were all bearing fruit, it was a good time.
