C85 (1/2)
The Wang family and Tian Chrysanthemum family went to the town's market to buy, but Mrs Wang was originally reluctant to spend money, but when she heard her daughter say that those pieces of paper were sold for fifty taels of silver, she also became excited.
Cotton usually costed ten gold coins for a catty. Now that it was only eight gold coins, buying ten catties was equivalent to earning twenty gold coins! Lady Wang gritted her teeth and bought the cotton for the next thirty pounds. This time, she would have cotton for herself and the children to make clothes for the winter.
Since the cotton had been bought, Tian Yuqiao urged Mrs Wang to buy some cloth. Anyway, she had come!
Lady Wang bought another half a piece of red muslin, which was used to make clothes for her and Qiao'er. Then she bought a white muslin, which she intended to keep for the children, who now had only one suit of clothes and no change of clothes.
She even bought five feet of green silk for the jade hall. She planned to use it as a coat when she left it for the school.
The two brothers had already said that they would definitely not go to school, so Lady Wang and Tian Yuqiao could only give up.
He spent about two hundred taels of silver to buy the cloth, but Tian Yuqiao paid without batting an eye. Lady Wang's heart was bleeding, while Tian Yutang turned his head away. He didn't dare to look at the way Tian Yuqiao was paying because he was afraid that he would be reluctant to part with her.
Mrs Wang asked the owner to deliver the goods to the mule cart at the city gate. Yuan Ji stayed there and watched as the cloth shop assistant packed the bags.
Lady Wang turned her head to Tian Yuqiao and asked, ”Qiao'er, mother's brain is a little muddled. See, do you think our family is lacking anything? At that time, we'll have to treat you guys to wine, do you want to buy some eggs or something? ”
Tian Yuqiao frowned and began to count on her fingers.
She roughly estimated that the Village Head and Elder were definitely going to be invited. There was also the Tian Ju family, Widow Li, as well as the Ceng father and son.
As for the children from the old house, she would inform them to come over at the last minute. After all, moving home was an important matter, so it was better not to call them over. She did not want anyone to gossip about her.
It seemed that the meat was not enough, so she went to buy another thirty catties. Anyway, she could keep the leftovers at home for later.
The butcher felt that she was very generous when she bought the meat, so he didn't bargain. Therefore, in order to get a customer, the butcher even gave Tian Yuqiao more than five pounds of meat.
This item was something that most people did not like to buy. Basically, they would just throw it away, and now it was time for a personal relationship.
When Tian Yuqiao saw the skin, she was immediately happy. As long as she tidied up and removed the pig hair, the skin would be boiled into meat and then frozen for eating.
After thanking the butcher, the family bought more or less the same thing. He decided to buy a hundred eggs directly from Tian Ju Hua's house. They would be priced according to the market price.
They were exhausted from the day, and Tian Ju Hua was surprised to see them buy so much cotton.
In the next two days, Lady Wang had already filled the rice and surface vats of her new house to the brim. Even the meat and oil vat was also filled to the brim.
The day before the move, the pillar had also brought back two firecrackers from the town.
Tian Yuqiao and Tian Yutang followed Mrs. Wang to the old residence and told Old Master Tian that they would move tomorrow and treat them to a banquet.
Old Man Tian didn't have much of an expression on his face. He already knew that his second son would definitely be able to come and invite him over. However, what surprised him was that the guest was from his family.
