Don’t wonder why hollow hairpins are more expensive than solid hairpins!
Because those who can afford gold hairpins, except for a few who are trying to make themselves fat, most of them only value the jewelry value of the hairpin, not its value as gold itself.
This hollow hairpin, evaluated by the values of later generations, is a top luxury product.
As for why you don’t wear a solid gold hairpin
With such a heavy solid gold hairpin on your head, I just want to ask, are you tired
"Buy a wooden hairpin!"
Mrs. Xu controls the family's finances and knows that the family is not short of money. Especially since the last time Yan Jing came to announce the decree, in addition to the canonizations, there was still a reward of one thousand taels of silver.
The one thousand taels of silver in hand was the fundamental reason why Mrs. Xu and Mr. Xu could give up the carriage business without hesitation.
The couple originally fled to Lingshui Village because they were favored by the people in the village.
Both of them are honest people, and their emphasis is on repaying kindness with drops of water and springs of water.
Therefore, when the village wanted to participate in the dragon boat race, they had no objection.
But if the villagers themselves don’t want to win, then this kindness will come to an end.
At the riverside before, Mr. Xu spoke clearly.
"All right!"
Mr. Xu didn't insist either.
He quickly paid the money, took the hairpin and left.
Mr. Xu drove the car and took Mrs. Xu to buy some pastries before driving to the county school.
Nowadays, Xu Laoer still takes a carriage to go home. It is the carriage that Xu Laoer's father-in-law, Li Jin, drives to Ding's house. Each trip costs two cents. Originally, Li Jinding didn't want to accept the money, but Mr. Xu firmly refused.
The brothers even settled the accounts openly.
If Xu Laosan only rides once or twice occasionally, it's okay if he doesn't charge money. But Xu Laosan takes the bus every day, so he has to pay for it. After all, this carriage was rented by Li Jin and Ding's family from Lao Xu's family.
Lao Xu's family has to collect rent.
It makes no sense to charge rent here and not pay for the ride there. This is a bit of a gangster!
When the ox cart arrived at the gate of the county school, Mr. Xu saw the carriage waiting there, and the driver was Li Jinding's eldest son, Li Shoushan.
When Li Shoushan saw Mr. Xu driving an ox cart, he quickly jumped out of the carriage and saluted Mr. Xu.
After some pleasantries, Li Shoushan drove the carriage and left first.
Mrs. Xu specially gave him a basket of cakes and asked him to take them back to his family to try.
"Daughter-in-law, this is not an option!"
After Li Shoushan drove away in the carriage, Mr. Xu looked at Mrs. Xu, "At this hour, when I go back to Lijiashan from the county seat, it will be dark when I get home. The third child spends more time out of the county school than at this hour every day. It’s too late!”
Previously, Mr. Xu thought that Li Jin and Ding's carriage was picking up some passengers along the way, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Mrs. Xu also noticed it, and that's why she sent the basket of cakes.
Although the two families are in-laws, it is Mr. Xu and Mr. Li who move around more, not Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu.
But because the matter involved Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu could only express their opinions.
"How about buying the third child a yard in the county?"
"inappropriate!"
Mr. Xu glanced at his daughter-in-law, "Daughter-in-law, why do I think you have been thinking about separating the family?"
Mrs. Xu rolled her eyes at Mr. Xu and said, "Aren't I thinking that their brothers are older?"
"Daughter-in-law, I have to tell you about this!"
Mr. Xu immediately looked at Mrs. Xu seriously and started to teach his wife. (End of chapter)
