The Princess of Northern Land

Chapter 24 Improvement (2)

"Sir, what do you want?" The waiter was very enthusiastic when he saw the guests coming to the door, but he didn't look down on them.

"How much does this fine flour cost?" Lin Ziyin asked.

"Sister, let's use black flour." Lin Changshu was really anxious this time. With how much money she spends, the money from selling tofu is simply not enough.

"How much does rice cost?" Lin Ziyin was still looking at the rice with envy. She liked pasta, but she also liked rice.

"White flour costs five cents, black flour costs three cents, and rice costs five cents." The waiter quickly reported the price.

"Ten jins of flour and rice each, and ten jins of black flour." Lin Ziyin said happily.

"Okay, I'll load it up for you." The waiter was afraid that Lin Changshu, who looked in pain, would object, so he quickly loaded up the amount reported by Lin Ziyin.

"One hundred and thirty coins." Lin Ziyin handed over the copper plate.

The waiter counted and said, "That's right, girl."

So rice and flour also became available.

"Sister, is it okay?" Lin Changshu suddenly felt stressed when he saw the things in the burden. It would be terrible to buy it like my sister did.

"No, I need to buy some seasonings." Lin Ziyin insisted.

There was no such thing as seasoning in this era, but she wasn't stupid and went straight to the drug store.

And in the drug store, she actually found the peppercorns, fennel, pepper and the like that she needed. She refused to accept them all, and soon, 80 Wen went out again.

Finally, Lin Ziyin bought two more candy figures for the two little guys on the street, spending three Wen.

After calculating this, the copper plate from the tofu seller was only nineteen cents left when he returned home.

"Grandpa, I'll make delicious food for you when you get home." Lin Ziyin never treats herself badly. She was always happy when she saw the things in her load.

"Okay, let's wait and enjoy the blessing of my granddaughter." The old man seemed to be very happy, only Lin Changshu was a little discouraged. The family still owes a foreign debt to the Ma family, so they spend their money lavishly, alas!

But he really couldn't say anything to blame Lin Ziyin.

When there was nothing important on the way, Lin Ziyin rested three times before returning to the entrance of the village.

While walking in the village, although some people saw them coming back carrying a load, no one paid attention to them because it was covered with something. After all, everyone knew that the Lin family was poor.

"Are you going to the market?" But the neighbor Bai family met him and asked more.

"Yes, aunt. Grandpa and brother took me to the temple to thank the master." Lin Ziyin rushed to answer. It wasn't that she was stingy, her family was too poor, so she thought it would be better to keep the tofu business a secret from the people in the village. "When I came back, I bought some water and came back."

"How can that thing be eaten?" Aunt Bai asked with a frown, and the villagers who came around suddenly lost interest in inquiring.

"At least it's some meat." Lin Ziyin lowered his head and said.

"Huh, it's not that I didn't remind you. Don't think about food all day long. You should pay back the money you owe our family as soon as possible." By coincidence, Mrs. Yan also came back from the fields. When she saw the Lin family carrying a load, she immediately Not happy.

Lin Changshu felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, and when he thought about what was in the burden, he became even more uneasy.

Lin Ziyin raised his head and replied expressionlessly, "Don't worry, we agreed to pay it back in one year, and our Lin family will definitely not break our promise then."

Yan's eyes were very cold when he saw her. After receiving the disdainful looks from the villagers, he immediately gritted his teeth and said, "It's best not to forget."

After saying that, he turned around and walked away regardless of what others thought.

"Virtue." Aunt Bai spat at her back.

Lin Ziyin couldn't help but smile when he saw her protecting her shortcomings. "Auntie, I've been walking for a long time and I'm tired. Let's go back first."

"Okay, you go back." Aunt Bai turned around and replied with a smile.
