Chapter 63
It's just that these furs are all the size of a palm, and some are not even as big as a palm. Yan Shuyun knows needlework best. She really can't figure out why Yan Xiaosi used that whole flower dog skin with the Xu's fur shop. The proprietress exchanged these useless leftover furs.

"Xiao Si, what are you doing with that piece of dog skin in exchange for these fur scraps?"

Yan Shuyun spoke out of curiosity.

After Yan Xiaosi glanced at the fur scraps in the bag, he tightened the mouth of the sack and held it in his arms like a baby.

"Third sister, do you still have the cable in your hand?"

She didn't answer Yan Shuyun's question, but first asked Yan Shuyun if she still had the cable in her hand.

Yan Shuyun nodded in confusion: "There are still some."

Yan Xiaosi squinted her eyes and smiled with satisfaction: "Third sister, let's make jewelry out of these fur scraps."

Yan Shuyun grew up so big, she had never heard that animal fur can be used as jewelry, not even Zhong Shi.

While driving the car, Zhong turned his back to Yan Xiaosi and said, "Xiao Si, who told you that animal fur can be used to make jewelry?"

In her previous life, Yan Xiaosi had seen a lot of plush jewelry, such as plush earrings, plush hair clips, plush headbands, etc. Although she didn't like to wear those plush jewelry, the style of those plush jewelry was pretty. It's simple, and it can be done with just a few glances, not to mention that there is an ingenious Yan Shuyun helping her now.

"Mother, no one taught me. I came up with this method myself. I don't know if it is feasible. If it is feasible, let's make some plush jewelry. Maybe we can make money. It happens that the third sister is good at needlework. I will Draw the shape of the jewelry and let Third Sister do it."

Yan Shuyun likes to work with needlework, hearing what Yan Xiaosi said, her eyes lit up immediately.

"Xiao Si, then you can draw the pattern when you go back. I will try my best to make more. Next time we go to the market, we can sell it at the market."

Yan Xiaosi knew that Yan Shuyun wanted to make money right now.

"Third sister, don't worry, let's go to the vegetable market to buy some oil, salt, rice, meat and vegetables, and then go back."

We stayed at Xu's Fur Shop for a while, and now there were fewer and fewer people on the street. Many people who went to the market were walking out of the town with their baskets on their backs, ready to go home.

Zhong guessed that the small vendors in the vegetable market should lower their prices at this moment, so she hurriedly drove the ox cart towards the vegetable market.

The oxcart walked unimpeded, and the family soon entered the vegetable market.

It was already afternoon, and the vegetable market was in a mess. There were very few buyers and sellers. There were only a few stalls, and the stall owners sat listlessly in front of the stalls.

Zhong stopped the cart, and Yan Xiaosi quickly jumped off the cart.

Zhong Shi, Yan Shuxue, and Yan Shuqin jumped off after her. Yan Shuyun was inconvenient in her legs and feet, so she sat on the cart and looked at the fur scraps and the bullock cart.

"Mother, let's cut some meat and go back to eat. Brother Long Hao is injured, and he needs to eat meat."

Yan Shuqin laughed out loud, stretched out her hand and rubbed the top of Yan Xiaosi's head lovingly: "You kid, you want to eat meat yourself, and you still use Big Brother Long as an excuse."

"Eldest sister, you saw through."

Yan Xiaosi used Long Hao as an excuse without blushing, but seeing that Mrs. Zhong didn't say anything, she pulled Yan Shuqin and called Yan Shuxue to stride towards the pork stall in front.

"Boss, buy meat."

The butcher at the pork stall was dozing off, Yan Xiaosi stood in front of the stall and shouted, startling the dozing butcher.

The butcher tilted his body and almost fell off his chair. He was about to get angry, but seeing that Yan Xiaosi and the others came to buy meat, he immediately put away his anger.

"Brother, how many catties of meat do you want to cut?"

"Boss, how much is the pork belly?"

Yan Shuqin was about to ask how much pork belly is per catty, but before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Yan Xiaosi's high-pitched tone.

Yan Xiaosi pointed to a large piece of pork belly on the stall, which weighed about ten catties, and asked, "Boss, how much is the pork belly per catty? You can give me a discount. I want all these pork belly."

Her words stunned Yan Shuqin and Yan Shuxue.

According to the price of the Great Chu Dynasty, pork belly was fifteen Wen a catty, and the piece of meat in front of me must have cost more than 100 Wen.

Zhong Shi, who was catching up behind, did not change his face.

The children are sallow and thin, it's time for them to eat something good to nourish their bodies, not to mention, the 50 taels today was earned by Xiao Si, so she has nothing to say.

Only the piece of pork belly and a cage of pig intestines hanging on the iron hook are left on the meat stall. The pig intestines are kept by the butcher for cooking at home. As long as the piece of pork belly is sold out, the stall can be taken home.

Yan Xiaosi said that he would buy the whole piece of pork belly, but the butcher immediately looked at Yan Xiaosi with bright eyes. It was already afternoon, and he was already impatient with keeping the stall.

"Pork belly was originally priced at fifteen cents a catty. If I buy the whole piece of meat, I will give you a discount of one penny per catty."

The butcher is a small business, and pork belly is one penny cheaper per catty, which is already a big discount.

Yan Xiaosi readily agreed, "Then trouble the boss to weigh this piece of pork belly."

"Brother, please wait a moment."

The butcher happily picked up the scale, hooked up the pork with the iron hook on the scale, and weighed it. The piece of meat was exactly ten catties.

"Brother, there are a total of ten catties of pork belly, 140 Wen."

Zhong watched the butcher weigh the meat, seeing that he was not cheating, so he asked Yan Xiaosi to pay.

Yan Xiaosi didn't take out the money immediately, but looked at the cage of pig intestines hanging on the iron hook.

"Boss, how do you sell this pig intestine?"

In her previous life, she didn't eat the offal of this kind of animal, but now this body is weak and greedy for all kinds of meat, which made her eyes shine even when looking at the pig's large intestine.

The butcher never thought of selling the caged pig intestines, Yan Xiaosi asked, he was taken aback for a moment, and then replied: "Brother really has a vision, in fact, fried pig intestines are quite delicious, but it is more troublesome to clean them up. Brother really wants it, and I will sell it to you for fifteen cents."

Yan Xiaosi had some memories of the original owner, and knew that people in Da Chu didn't like to eat animal offal, especially the smelly pig intestines.

"Eight cents, if the boss is willing to sell it, I will buy this cage of pig intestines."

The butcher often kills pigs and eats pig intestines. He doesn't care about this thing. Thinking that eight cents is money, although he is a little reluctant, he still agrees.

While untying the pig's large intestine from the iron hook, he said to Zhong: "Sister, your kid is really good at bargaining."

Zhong Shi smiled lightly, and when Yan Xiaosi paid the money, she took the cage of pig intestines from the butcher.

Yan Shuqin and Yan Shuxue carried the big piece of pork belly onto the bullock cart and let Yan Shuyun watch.

"Third sister, I have some meat to eat tonight."
