A lucky wife born again from a farm family

Mrs. Chen knew what Third Grandpa meant, but she pretended to be confused, shook the old cotton-padded clothes in her hands and shouted: "When I was in my hometown, it only cost more than a hundred yuan to make a new cotton-padded clothes. But when I got to Yuchang Mansion, it cost five yuan." One hundred big bucks? Five hundred big bucks, third uncle, it can equal the harvest of one acre of our land. The harvest of one acre of land can be exchanged for an old cotton coat. Isn’t this a scam? "

These old cotton-padded clothes have been washed several times, and the cotton inside has clumps, and they are not as warm as wearing new cotton-padded clothes.

The more Ms. Chen thought about it, the more her heart ached, and the angrier she got: "No, we can't have these old cotton-padded clothes. Take them back and change them. If they don't change them, we will knock on them."

"Knock on the door?" The third grandfather laughed angrily. Mrs. Chen thought this was Gujia Village, so she was allowed to do whatever she wanted? They were able to buy back these old cotton-padded clothes because they acted quickly. Those victims who arrived later than them could only buy woolen clothes made of tangled hemp and old cotton wool.

Gu Dagui grabbed the three old cotton-padded clothes in Chen's hand and cursed: "Are you finished? You also know that was in my hometown. Where are we now? It's in Yuchang Mansion thousands of miles away. Are you still here?" If you want to cause trouble on other people's territory, I think you are tired of living."

Even powerful dragons don't suppress local snakes. They are just victims fleeing famine. What can they do to knock on the door?

After being scolded by Gu Dagui, Mrs. Chen did not dare to yell anymore, but whispered: "This is too expensive... We don't have much money in our hands. Brother Wang is still sick, and if Brother Fa keeps freezing, What to do?"

As he spoke, he actually started to cry. While crying, he said to Gu Dafu: "Uncle, our family is not divided. You can't watch Brother Wang and Brother Fa freeze to death."

When Gu Dagui heard this, he was so angry that he raised his hand and wanted to hit Mrs. Chen. Ms. Chen hurriedly escaped, ran to the side, pulled Fa Geer, hugged Wang Geer who was still sleeping and cried softly.

"Dagui, stop." Gu Dafu scolded Gu Dagui. After a moment of silence, he said to the third grandfather: "Third uncle, if our family pays more, you can give us five old cotton-padded clothes and two thick leather jackets."

Mr. Chen was right. Their family was not divided. He should be in charge of the food and clothing of the whole family.

Gu Dagui said: "Brother, we don't need you to contribute money. We will pay it ourselves. Although our family is not divided into separate houses, we all have the money for each house. There is no reason for you to give us money."

My father was worried that they would get separated on the way to escape the famine, so he had already distributed the family's money to them, one share for each room. The eldest brother did not get an extra copper, so there was no reason to buy cotton clothes for the family now.

After seeing the villains killing the victims, Gu Dafu now attaches great importance to family ties: "Dagui, if you still treat me as your eldest brother, stop talking about it."

"Brother..." Gu Dagui didn't want it, but Gu Dafu directly took out three taels of silver and handed it to the third grandfather.

When everyone went shopping together, Chen gave half a tael of silver, he gave one tael, and now he gave another three taels, enough to buy five cotton-padded clothes and two thick leather clothes.

"That's more. The robe is two hundred dollars apiece." After taking the money, the third grandfather took out his money bag and counted another six hundred dollars to Gu Dafu.

Seeing Gu Dafu give the money, Mrs. Chen hurriedly ran over, picked two more old cotton-padded clothes from the basket, took another cotton-padded coat from Gu Dagui's hand, and left with three old cotton-padded clothes in her arms.

These three old cotton-padded clothes belonged to her and her two sons. The remaining two cotton-padded clothes were divided between the two brothers Gu Dafu and Gu Dagui. She would not suffer from the cold.

Gu Yumei wanted to tear Mrs. Chen apart. Mrs. Chen only gave half a tael of silver, but took away three old cotton-padded clothes. Her father gave four taels of silver, but only got two pieces of cotton-padded clothes and two pieces of silk clothes. Is there any justice?

He also complained that Gu Dafu was stupid and suffered a loss after spending his money.

Gu Yumei knew that the old cotton-padded clothes were not enough and she couldn't bear the cold. She threw away her reserve and ran over to take a floral cotton-padded coat from Gu Dagui's hand and put it on immediately.

Gu Dexing was afraid that he would not get any cotton-padded clothes, so he hurriedly took away the last old cotton-padded coat from Gu Dagui's hand.

Gu Dagui didn't blame them. He just chose two thicker robes and handed one of them to Gu Dafu.

The third grandfather looked at the families in the hut and said: "The prices of these things are higher than we expected. The money you give us can't buy many things. If you want something, you have to pay the price. If you don't want it, I will give you the money." Return it to you."

The things we bought were several times more expensive than expected, and the whole family was very sad. For example, Mrs. Yan and Aunt Tian thought not to buy it. They might be able to survive the pain, but Gu Damu and Uncle Tian insisted on buying it.

Gu Damu said: "Third uncle, I don't blame you for this. If we add more money, we have to survive."

Gu Damu added money to buy old cotton-padded clothes for his children and Mr. Yan, while he, Yan and Gu Dalin bought thick fur coats.

Aunt Tian's family is poor and cannot afford old cotton-padded clothes, so she can only buy woolen clothes.

After Third Grandpa collected the money, he asked them to choose their own clothes to keep out the cold. After they picked out the rest, he took it.

Gu Jinli's family had money given by Qi Yi, so they asked Luo's father to buy more things for their family to keep out the cold. Most of the things Luo's father carried were from Gu Jinli's family.

There are not only old cotton-padded clothes, silk clothes, old cloth, but also shabby quilts, needlework and other items.

Gu Jinli picked up a few old cotton-padded clothes and gave them to Gu Jinxiu, Mistress Cui, and Brother Cheng: "Mom, eldest sister, please put on the cotton-padded clothes quickly. Don't get cold."

Mrs. Cui and Gu Jinxiu took the old cotton-padded clothes and covered the sleeping Brother Cheng and Third Grandma before putting on their own cotton-padded clothes. As soon as they put on the old cotton-padded clothes, they felt much warmer and their mouths were no longer purple from the cold. , hands and feet are stiff.

What Gu Jinli was holding was a gray cotton coat with a few holes in it. She opened the holes and pulled out a bit of cotton that had turned yellow after washing. After confirming that the stuffing inside was really cotton, she sighed in her heart: This is really a cotton coat. A chaotic dynasty.

There were soybeans in the Chu Dynasty, but there was no such thing as tofu. Soybeans were one of the staple foods of the people in Chu Dynasty and were used for cooking and eating. There were Wubao in the Han Dynasty, but they could not raise private soldiers; the style of clothes they wore was also The similarity with the Han Dynasty made her think that the Chu Dynasty was the ancient Han Dynasty.

But the Chu Dynasty had thousands of households, which was like the Ming Dynasty.

Now, she knows that there is cotton in the Chu Dynasty.

Cotton began to appear in the Song Dynasty. Before that, the ancients used catkins, reed catkins, and various fluffs to keep out the cold.

In short, the Chu Dynasty was like China, but different from China. It was a combination of Han, Song, and Ming.

Gu Jinli put on his old cotton coat and ran back to ask Third Grandpa: "Third Grandpa, have you bought the medicinal materials?"

"I bought it, and it's in this basket." Third Grandpa said, pointing to the basket at Qin Sanlang's feet.

This time they not only bought clothes to keep out the cold, but also some whole grains and medicinal materials.

Yuchang Mansion was also affected by the disaster. The nearby farmers did not have much food. They only sold them some sweet potatoes and beans, but compared to eating grass roots and leaves, these whole grains were considered delicious.

As for the medicinal materials, Gu Jinli specifically asked to buy them.

There were too few types of medicinal materials she could find, and there were two important medicinal herbs for treating wind-cold. She wanted everyone to get better quickly, so she had to buy medicine.

Since they couldn't get into Fucheng, Third Grandpa and the others bought medicine from the barefoot doctor in a nearby village, but the amount of medicinal materials they bought was not large. Fortunately, they bought all the medicinal materials that mainly treat wind and cold.

After hearing Third Grandpa's words, Qin Sanlang took out the bundles of herbs from under the basket and handed them to Gu Jinli: "Xiao Yu, take it."
