She gave birth to three daughters in a row, and was kicked out by her mother-in-law who favored boys

There were many people in the town today, and there were also many butchers. They bought a five-pound piece of pork belly at the market.

They have plenty of minced meat, pig heads, pig leg bones, and ribs at home, so they don't need to buy meat for their own consumption.

However, she bought a lot of spices at the spice shop today and also bought a can of soy sauce.

Because she planned to braise the pig's head when she returned. Now it was not winter yet, the meat could be rubbed with salt and kept for a few more days, but the pig's head could not.

When passing by the grain store on the way to the dental clinic, Gu Qingqing thought that since she was passing by, she might as well buy 30 kilograms of sorghum flour so that she wouldn't have to come back later to buy more.

Sorghum flour is not cheap either, costing six cents per pound.

She took the opportunity to ask about the flour, and it turned out to be thirteen cents per pound.

She still has some at home, but she didn't buy it.

The waiter saw that Gu Qingqing was dressed simply and cleanly and spoke nicely, unlike other village women who were so rude.

He suddenly pointed to a sack in the corner of the grain store and said, "That's some old brown rice that the store just sorted out today, about 50 kilograms. The new brown rice of that year also sells for 10 cents a kilogram, but this is only 6 cents. Take a look and see if you are interested."

When Gu Qingqing heard that it was brown rice, she thought brown rice was good. Except that it tasted a bit rough and not as soft as white rice, it contained a lot of nutrients.

Poor rural families like them do not have high blood lipids and high blood sugar, and there is no need to expect the dietary fiber in brown rice to combine with cholesterol, promote the excretion of cholesterol, and thus help lower blood lipids.

The phosphorus element alone can protect the health of human teeth and bones, so it is worth eating more.

Gu Qingqing agreed and said, "I'll talk to the child's father."

Gu Qingqing ran out and said to Wen Wuyan, who was in charge of guarding the car, the money and the children, "There are about 50 kilograms of old brown rice in the store, and each kilogram only costs six cents. Is this price expensive?"

"It's not expensive. In the past, villagers would carry new brown rice to the town to sell it, and the price would be around eight or nine cents. Old brown rice may not taste as good as fresh rice, but in terms of price, it's not expensive."

"That's great. I'll go buy it right away." After saying this, Gu Qingqing returned to the store.

Forty-eight catties of brown rice should cost two hundred and eighty-eight wen, and thirty catties of sorghum flour should cost one hundred and eighty wen.

Gu Qingqing paid the other party a total of four hundred and sixty-eight cents.

Seeing that her husband was inconvenient, the waiter did not let Gu Qingqing help, and carried the 50-kilogram sack by himself to help her put it on their car.

Gu Qingqing thanked the shop assistant again and again.

There was food on the bus, but Wen Wuyan refused to get on it this time and insisted on walking slowly.

Gu Qingqing didn't force him and walked slowly with the food.

When they arrived at the dental clinic, Gu Qingqing helped Wen Wuyan in. Seeing that the man had difficulty with his legs, the shop assistant quickly moved a chair over for Wen Wuyan to sit on.

Then he smiled and asked, "You two, do you want to buy or sell?"

Wen Wuyan first smiled at him gratefully, then asked, "Brother, we want to know how much the house in the town is worth now."

When the clerk saw the business coming, he smiled and explained, "It depends on the location and the house. If it is between the east and west gates (town gate) and the outer street, the price of the surrounding courtyards is about 80 to 100 taels. As for the same area near the north and south, the price will be around 70 to 90 taels."

This is how Gu Qingqing understood it. If the main street of the town is regarded as the center, then the first ring of the main street is basically called the inner street by the people in the town.

The outer second ring road is called the outer street.

Taohua Town has three ring roads, and the fourth ring road is the outer perimeter.

When the guy saw that he had finished speaking, the two people opposite him looked at each other. Wen Wuyan didn't understand and asked, "Why is this? Please explain it in detail, brother."

The waiter was not impatient and explained in detail, "Although it takes 25 minutes to walk from the East and West Gates to the main street, a market has already formed there. Households from nearby villages will come to sell things, including some merchants who live nearby, who will go there early in the morning to set up stalls, so it is relatively lively in spring, summer, and early winter, and it is also convenient to buy vegetables there. There are fewer villages to the north and south, so it is relatively not as lively as the east and west. So there will be price differences in this regard. Of course, it does not mean that there are no high-priced houses in the north and south gates. At this time, it depends on the age of the house, etc."

Gu Qingqing thought about it and decided that she must be going to the town to do business. If the location was too far away or too remote from the main street, it would not make much sense.

"Young man, what about the houses facing the street? Are there any houses that are suitable for doing business and living?"

"Yes, of course. We have a shop facing Luosong Street. It has three rooms and a house with two courtyards behind it. The location is good and the house faces south. You can walk a few steps from the alley to Luosong Street. It's priced at 280 taels of silver."

After listening to the waiter's introduction, Gu Qingqing felt that this place was very suitable for her, as it had a large courtyard and a shop. However, when she heard the price, she was shocked to find that the money she had was only a fraction of the full price of the house.

Gu Qingqing smiled awkwardly, "Brother, is there anything more affordable, such as just bringing a shop into the courtyard?"

"Yes, there is a house for sale in Liugang Lane on the outer street. Hey, what kind of shop do you want to open?"

"Eat."

The waiter immediately shook his head when he heard this. "As for food, Liugang Lane is not suitable because there is a coffin shop not far from the shop in the lane."

Gu Qingqing was choked by what he said.

"There is also a shop with two main rooms facing the street. In front of it is a courtyard with three east and west wing rooms. The west room is the best and is priced at only eighty taels. It shares a well with the five households around it, so it is very convenient to get water. In addition, several shops around it also sell food."

After hearing this, Gu Qingqing and Wen Wuyan looked at each other again. Gu Qingqing felt that this was more reliable.

Then he asked, "Young man, where is this house located?"

Gu Qingqing saw the shop assistant scratching his head in embarrassment, and she suddenly had a bad feeling. Sure enough, she heard the shop assistant say, "It's in Ruyi Lane, but that place has its advantages, people come and go, and it's always worthwhile to do food there."

"......Ruyi Lane!" Gu Qingqing's breath was stuck in her throat.

She would not be afraid even if it was next to a brothel, after all, brothels were open for business and did business in an open and honest manner.

What is Ruyi Lane? It is a place where women are locked up in a room, and the madam solicits customers at the door. People who go there are all kinds of people. They are reluctant to spend money on brothels, so they can only go to such dirty places.

It was also the place where Gu Daquan had planned to take Gu Jiashi to...

Wen Wuyan naturally knew that place. He looked at the shop assistant with a constipated expression and said, "Young man, that place is not suitable."

Gu Qingqing also took a deep breath and said, "Young man, are you sure you don't have a decent house with a shop?"
