A Blessed Wife At Home Chapter 878: An unexpected surprise

Latest website: This trip has been a fruitful one.

Seeing that the New Year was about to come, Mrs. Lezheng did not keep them much longer. She told them to be careful on the road and asked them to come early next year. Then she would keep an eye on the caravan going to Beijing for them.

Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan expressed their gratitude.

There is no way to go to Beijing from the provincial capital by water, so you can only go by land. This is a real long distance, and hiring a carriage to hit the road like this is neither convenient nor safe.

With such a long journey, who knows if anything will happen on the way? It would be terrible if we encountered a group of robbers in the wilderness.

So when you go to Beijing to take the exam, you usually make an appointment with a few acquaintances or people from the county, and everyone goes together.

What is safer and more reliable is to find a firm that is going to Beijing at the right time, say good words, give some gifts, and stick with them.

Generally speaking, the firm will agree. After all, it is very likely that the person who came to Beijing to take the exam will become an official after successfully jumping over the dragon gate. At that time, this is a favor made in advance.

However, most businesses do not run such long business routes, and because of the need to buy and sell goods, they need to stop and go along the way. It is common for them to stop for ten days and a half in some prosperous cities.

But Juren, who came to Beijing to take the exam, could not afford to waste such time.

Therefore, how to choose a suitable business name is not something everyone can do.

If others can't do it, Mrs. Lezheng can definitely do it in this provincial city.

It was already the twentieth of the twelfth lunar month when Qiao Xuan, Shao Yunduan and their party returned home.

The New Year goods I bought now are very suitable for the occasion.

There are countless exquisite and delicious snacks, candies, candied fruits, roasted seeds and nuts, such as lotus cakes, mung bean cakes, cloud cakes, poria cakes, shortcakes, small twists, dragon beard cakes, osmanthus candy, peanut sesame candy, pine nuts, small twists, etc. Walnuts, melon seeds, almonds, etc. are all available, and Shao Sanlang and his wife are especially happy.

Each person also has six new sets of clothes, shoes and socks inside and outside, as well as rouge, gouache and various silk flowers for women, spinning tops for children, clay figurines, cloth tigers, roly-poly, and small knives and swords made of wood. Puppies and other toys, as well as various seafood dry goods, other things for the home, etc.

Qiao Xuan also specially bought a set of jewelry worth two to three hundred taels of silver for each of the female relatives in the family. Shao Qing also had a share, and the two younger brothers Shao Junyan had a pair of gold bracelets each and a gold and jade bracelet. Ruyi golden lock.

The big room was so lively for a while that I looked at these things for a long time.

Early the next morning, Qiao Xuan couldn't wait to take Xiaoqi, Taotao, and Yang Xiaoni to plant blueberries and cherries in the open space where the cassava was harvested. ~IndoMTL.com~ Yang Xiaoni and the others knew that this was a fruit tree from other places and they would probably be able to eat delicious fruits next year, so they were very positive.

There are about three acres of blueberries planted, and a total of thirty-six cherries.

There are so many grown in the village, enough to feed our family.

Some villagers passed by and saw them planting trees. They couldn't help laughing: This is not the time to plant trees! At least we have to celebrate the Lantern Festival, right?

After the Lantern Festival, the weather will not be so cold, unless there is a late spring cold.

When trees were planted at that time, there was a high probability that they would survive. But now...

Qiao Xuan laughed when she heard this: "This sapling was brought back from a friend's house in the provincial capital. My friend just brought it back from other places at this time. I can't leave it like this without planting it. Maybe it will survive if I try it." What?"
