Chapter 694 Returning to the Lan Dynasty (44)

In the capital, Du Yu'an finally had a few days free. He didn't want to ask Song Qianxian about those weird thoughts, but this man has become more and more unscrupulous recently, so he decided to take the time to talk.

Since he was able to confess in modern times, Song Qianxian had nothing he could not say now, so he made it clear.

Du Yu'an couldn't regain his senses after listening to it for a long time, and he said in a hoarse voice for a long time: "So you and my father and Qian Ming have been there for a thousand years?"

"You are all there, but you have no memory."

"I really envy you!" Du Yu'an sighed, "Just hearing you say that is exciting enough, it would be great if I could see it with my own eyes."

This Song Qianxian was also helpless. Opportunity is invisible, let alone controllable, so he could only respond dryly: "There will be a chance."

"I don't force it, but fortunately Youhuan is still there."

"Yes, fortunately the child is still there."

The next morning, as soon as You Huan woke up, she felt her mother's more meticulous care than before: "I'm really fine, mother, what's wrong with you today?"

"It's nothing, it's just that the journey is far away. Mother is afraid that you will work hard."

"It's not hard, there are so many people waiting for you, and the journey is very delicate, mother, can I ride a horse by myself later?"

"It's fine if you don't feel tired."

"Thank you, mother." Youhuan acted like a baby, "I'll go back to the carriage and lie down when I'm tired."

"Okay, come on, mother will wipe your sweat for you."

Youhuan moved her head obediently, and then gave her father Song Qianming a mischievous smile. Song Qianming shook his head helplessly. He understood his wife's current mood. It was nothing more than his heartache about Youhuan in modern times last night. He had experienced all of this, so I understand very well, fortunately this life is perfect.

"Mother, I'm going." After wiping off the sweat, You Huan looked at her bloody horse eager to try.

"Well, let's go." Ge Yunqing watched her get on the horse. Seeing her daughter's joyful appearance, she suddenly thought about her daughter's marriage. In the future, she can get married if she wants to, and if she doesn't, she can't. With their family background, it's really nothing.

They stopped and went all the way, and played around again. It took them ten days longer than originally planned to reach the Southland. The further south they went, the hotter the weather was. For items, she rolled up her sleeves like the locals.

Because of the weather, the southern land is more open than the capital city. Not to mention the men, even many women don't wear trousers, and their feet are exposed, and some women even have their arms exposed.

Now the southern land is very developed, there are many factories here, and the people are keen to make money, so it is more convenient to wear, so they don't pay so much attention.

"Some styles are pretty good-looking." Gu Yunqing was surprised at first, but gradually got used to it, and even studied how to wear it, thinking that he and his daughter could wear two sets.

"Mother, look quickly, they are all lychees, and there are several varieties! Come down and taste them."

"Here, it's the first time I've seen such a fresh lychee."

The woman selling lychees warmly invited them to taste it casually: "This stuff is difficult to preserve, so you outsiders can't eat fresh ones. It's better now. The roads are wider and smoother. I'll keep it on ice and transport it to the capital. It's only three to five days, but no matter how many ice cubes are put in, after a while, it's not as good as freshly picked ones, even if you taste them, they are all grown by yourself, and they are not worth much."

"It's good, it's delicious." Both Gu Yunqing and Song Youhuan's eyes lit up, "Mom, let's buy them all."

Hearing what they said, the woman quickly persuaded them: "Although these lychees are delicious, they are easy to get angry. If you buy too much, you will ruin them."

"It's not wasteful. We have a lot of family members, so it's okay to share some with the servants. Sister, how much money is this in total?"

Seeing what Gu Yunqing said, the woman's smile deepened: "It's rare to meet such a rich and noble family as you who are kind to your servants. They are all picked at home. Since they want them all, just give them two taels of silver."

Gu Yunqing nodded, and asked her mother-in-law to give Shiliang: "Is there any more at home? Please pick some more, we will come and get them tomorrow."

"There are, but they may not be enough for twelve taels of lychees."

"As much as you have, it's okay."

"Oh, thank you madam."

The woman accepted it happily, thinking that she had earned it, but Gu Yunqing and the others also felt that they had earned it, after all there are so many lychees!If this was in the capital, ten taels would not be enough to fit between the teeth. Now this pile, the servants can share it one by one, let alone tomorrow.

After shopping for the whole family, they were not in a hurry to go back home, but continued shopping. There was a port here, and there were many exotic gadgets from abroad.

"Why is this bead red? Is it a pearl?" You Huan was attracted by a small stall.

The peddler explained enthusiastically: "Miss, I don't know, these are beads taken out of conch shells. We call them conch beads. Look at the pink color, isn't it very beautiful?"

"Pretty is beautiful, but the shape is irregular. Are there just two?"

The peddler scratched his head in embarrassment: "Snail beads are rare, there are only two small ones."

"Two pieces can't be made into jewelry."

Seeing that she was about to lose interest, the peddler hurriedly sold them: "Miss, it is because there are not many of them that they are so precious. Look at these two snail beads, they are suitable for a pair of earrings. If you really like them, you can take a tael of silver with you. "

You Huan pouted: "It's not pearls, two of them cost a tael of silver."

Song Qianming hesitated to speak, these are snail beads. In modern times, snail beads are much more expensive than pearls. This peddler got them from nowhere, but there are actually two of them, and they are of very good quality. In modern times, they will be sold at an auction. At least [-] bids are required, the daughter's vision is really good.

"Then five dollars, do you think it's okay to take the five dollars away?"

"Okay then." Youhuan was a little reluctant, mainly because she liked the color, and the peddler took the money and left the stall as if he was afraid that she would regret it.

"This man is really interesting." She held the snail and looked at the sun, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, "Father, mother, what do you think?"

"It's worth it." Gu Yunqing nodded, "Since it's a rare item, five qian silver is not expensive, and the peddler's price is too low. If you take it to a gold store, the owner of the gold store can give him a high estimate, but unfortunately he doesn't know the goods. .”

After hearing this, Song Qianming admired her from the bottom of his heart. As expected of his wife who knows how to manage money, she has a unique vision.

"Two are missing, let's go around again to see if there are any other sellers of these conch beads." Gu Yunqing started to shop more carefully, but unfortunately, he didn't come across this thing again until it was almost dark, even after they waited for two months. Back in the capital, I didn't meet the third one, which is enough to show its preciousness.

"It's probably because the peddler couldn't sell them and saved two of them, and we just happened to meet them. Since I like them, I'll make people pay more attention to them in the future. There must be more than these two in this world."

"Yeah." You Huan wore conch shell earrings, the pink color was just right for a girl of her age, and it looked comfortable.
