Wear It with Space - Chapter 18
Shen Ling thought that the size of the flower market at this time was definitely not as large as that of later generations, but after entering, he found that the area of the flower market was not small, including peonies, peony, wisteria, cherries, rhododendrons, orchids, roses, jasmine and so on.
This time is spring, and peonies can be seen everywhere in the flower market. Shen Ling asked about the price. The price of a good pot of peony is about 1,000 yuan, not to mention the precious varieties like Yaohuang, Weizi.
Shen Ling did the calculations silently, and got rid of the seven hundred dollars that had been spent on the monthly bill, she still had the twelve taels of silver that Father Zhao gave her after selling the pearls.
The ten taels of silver is enough to buy a few pots of ordinary peonies, but it is much worse if you want to buy a pot of rare varieties of peonies.
Shen Ling thought bitterly as he walked, and suddenly several sighs came in front of him.
Flower farmer Jia Shun sat in front of his stall and looked at the peonies in front of him. It took several years of hard work to cultivate such a flower-shaped Yaohuang. He wanted to sell it for a good price. Unexpectedly, since yesterday, this Yaohuang tree has developed a flower disease for some reason, and the leaves have gradually wilted. He was a little unwilling, so he got the flower market to try his luck. But after a long time, no one stopped in front of his stall.
He was sighing, and suddenly heard a clear voice asking: “Old man, how do you sell Yao Huang?”
Jia Shun looked up and saw an eight or nine-year-old girl. He said in a urn voice: “Little girl, don’t make trouble, this flower is not something you can buy.”
Shen Ling said: “I have money, why can’t I buy this peony flower? Old man, let me give you a price!”
Jia Shunxin said: “Five taels of silver. If you want 50 taels of silver, I will let you move away.”
Shen Ling smiled and said: “Five taels of silver are a little bit more, but three taels are fine.”
Jia Shun didn’t believe she could really come up with the silver, and looked up at her without speaking.
Shen Ling drew his hand from his purse, took out a piece of silver and shook it in front of him, smilingly: “Now you should believe it!”
Jia Shun raised some spirits: “Little girl, do you really want to buy this peony?”
Shen Ling smiled and said, “Of course. Although your peony looks a little ill, but my family has an ancestral secret method to cure peony disease. I dare say that in the entire flower market, no one will buy your flower except me. “
Jia Shun said: “I know, it’s just three taels of silver is too little, at least four taels.”
Shen Ling said: “Four two is four two, but you have to give me a few flower seedlings.”
Jia Shun said readily: “It’s easy, you go to my house and you can choose the seedlings in the flower garden.”
Shen Ling followed him around the city for half an hour before coming to a courtyard on the edge of the city. The yard is half an acre of land, and there is a square flowerbed opposite the three blue-tile houses. The flowerbeds grow higher from north to south, and are planted with roses, jasmine, peony, and peony in turn.
Shen Ling picked a few peony seedlings, two jasmine and a rose. When she left, she had to leave a basket in Jia Shun’s house, put the peonies and seedlings on it, and left Jia’s house with the basket. .
Passing a small forest from Jia’s house to the main road, Shen Ling entered the space there and planted peonies and flower seedlings on the black soil.
In the afternoon, Shen Ling returned to the Hou Mansion from outside. She went to Mother Ann to deliver snacks first, and then she found Coral to return the sign.
When sleeping at night, Shen Ling thought about the Yaohuang tree, turned off the light and entered the space.
In the center of the black earth, the Yao Huang that she bought for four taels of silver seemed to be the same, with the leaves slightly yellowing. Shen Ling was not worried at all. She had tried several times before and moved the half-dead flowers and plants outside to the space. After a few days, the plants and trees were all restored to life. That’s why she was willing to spend four taels of silver to buy this sick Yao Huang.
After watching Yao Huang, Shen Ling went to the pool to look at the fish, shrimps, crabs and shellfish inside.
After more than a year, the fish, shrimp, crab and shellfish inside have already begun to thrive. Perhaps because of the particularity of the pool, these creatures harvested from the sea do not violate each other and coexist peacefully in the pool.
For this reason, a 100 cubic meter pool gradually cannot hold these more and more creatures.
Whenever she sees such a situation, Shen Ling can’t help but think of the system’s prompt sound. If she wants to upgrade the space to level two, it needs two hundred points. After she completes Xiaodie’s task, add the original remaining Now it is only one hundred and ninety points.
Have to think of a way to deal with these fish, shrimp, crabs and shellfish.
When eating at noon the next day, Shen Ling used this gap to quietly go to a small garden behind Rong’an Hall. Various flowers are planted in the small garden, and of course there are also Madam Hou’s favorite lotus. The lotus was planted in a small pond, because the mud of the pond was cleared last winter, so the water in the pond is still clear.
Standing by the pool, Shen Ling could even see the fish and shrimps in the water. She looked around. It was lunch time and there was no one in the small garden. But she walked into a water pavilion next to the lotus pond very cautiously, and then stepped into the space.
There was a bucket she had put in in the space before, and Shen Ling took a bucket full of those fry, shrimp fry, crabs and shells before leaving the space.
Coming out of the water pavilion, the surroundings were still empty. Shen Ling poured all the fish, shrimp, crabs and shellfish in the bucket into the pool, then returned to the water pavilion and put the bucket into the space.
After doing all this, she quietly returned to her room as before.
Taking out the steaming meal from the space, Shen Ling finished eating in two bites, and hurriedly came to Mother An’s house, finally he was not late.
Mother An had a faint smile on her face: “This month, the rules of the three of you are almost the same. Once I report to your wife, the three of you can be errands.”
In the afternoon, Mother Ann took the three of them to do some needlework, and everything was still the same as usual.
Only after Shen Ling got up the next day, she saw another big maid Pearl beside Madam Hou. This was a sweet-looking maid. She wore a light blue dress, a red gold pomegranate flower hairpin, and was dressed like coral. It’s still a bit better.
Pearl looked at her up and down, then said, “Pack your clothes and come with me!”
Shen Ling guessed that he would belong to this pearl tube in the future, and after a brief packing, he followed Pearl to a penthouse in the backyard of Rong’antang.
Pearl brought her in and said, “This is the house that Amber used to live in. Now she has gone out. You can live here in the future!”
She watched Shen Ling put things down and said, “I’ll put things in my head first. My wife is the most disciplined person. What I don’t like most is to be strong. When you go on a job, remember these two points, otherwise Don’t blame me for not reminding you.”
Shen Ling made a well-behaved look: “I wrote down what Sister Pearl said.”
Seeing that she could listen to her advice, Pearl smiled: “There is nothing else. You just arrived, and you had to be outside for two years before entering the house to serve. But the second girl Yesterday, I spoke specifically for you, so my wife asked you to serve the second girl from tomorrow.” She paused and said, “Except for my wife who assigned the second girl to make a maid, there are Yanqing and Teaqing beside the second girl. Two people, two or three years older than you. When you get to the second girl, you should talk less and do more. After waiting for a long time, you will be able to get their seat slowly.”
Pearl’s remarks were too informative. After she left, Shen Ling pondered a few words carefully. Why did the second girl speak for her? You must know that whether it was Shen Ling or Abi, it was the first time to see the second girl. She didn’t believe that the second girl simply sympathized with her. There must be something she didn’t know about.
As for Pearl’s words to let her talk less and do more, as well as the last sentence to mention, Shen Ling always felt that there was something in her words, and it was mostly related to the two maids named Yanqing and Chaqing next to the second girl.
