Chapter 18 Winter is approaching

"Oh, what should I do?" She stood in front of the window and couldn't help but sigh, which made the maids look curiously and look around her. They surrounded her and looked along her eyes, but found nothing.

Yingchun couldn't help but ask, "Miss, what are you looking at?"

"Look, the leaves have turned yellow."

"Ah? Miss, autumn is coming and the leaves turn yellow. This is the most normal thing."

Liu Luoying shook her head slightly, without explaining, but continued to look at the sky in a daze.

After living in the old house for more than half a month, the rain finally stopped, and the air was filled with water, with a hint of chill.

Unlike the capital, the autumn here is colder, especially in recent years, even the locals cannot adapt to it, so they put on cotton jackets early.

What worries Liu Luoying is based on the memory of her previous life that snow will soon fall here.

Although there is no danger of disturbing the Jin soldiers here, it will encounter the coldest winter in a century. At the beginning, many people died in this cold winter.

Although she had no witness in her previous life, she heard from the old maid who had experienced in the palace that many people were frozen to death because they did not prepare their winter clothes in time.

There are also some people who still have some silver in their hands, but are forced to have no way to survive by unscrupulous merchants who are on the ground. Even if they buy clothes for winter, they cannot treat typhoid fever and can only die in the pain.

It is said that there is a bustling small town. When winter snow did not fall, there were more than 100,000 people in the city, but in the end only a hundred people survived. I can imagine how tragic it was.

Liu Luoying thought about it and decided to purchase a large amount of winter and prevent cold-proof materials, especially the most important herbs in natural disasters.

"Welcome spring and breeze winter."

"At, Miss."

"You will use all the money left to purchase winter clothes and bedding."

"Ah? Miss, this is too early, right? It's just autumn now."

"Yes, if we can go back to the capital in a few days, won't these things be used?"

Liu Luoying shook her head slightly and ordered in a deep voice: "Just do what I said, and you will understand in a few days."

"This...well."

The two little maids looked at each other, took out their purse, counted the amount inside, and went out to purchase.

"Hold the summer."

"Miss."

"You go out with me."

Liu Luoying stood up, walked to the bed, took the pillow, took out the items left by her grandmother inside, pulled out a five thousand taels, and put them in her arms.

She did not hide anything from Bao Xia, nor was she afraid that this girl would see the place where the silver notes were hidden.

This action also moved Bao Xia. Although he was curious about where the lady got the huge sum of money, he didn't ask too much, but just followed Liu Luoying out of the house quietly.

Anyway, since her lady had a serious illness last time, she has become very steady, and sometimes she still feels like she is ahead of her.

However, she never expected that this time she went out with the lady was a very physical job.

The two left the house and headed straight to the medicine shop. Liu Luoying bought all the herbs to relieve cold and cough in one breath, and then carried Xia supervisor and watched the workers move the herbs into their yard.

When people in other yards saw that, whether they were the masters or servants, they covered their mouths and laughed, saying that their brains were burnt out.

This move also attracted Liu Chengan's attention.

Under the flaming flames of the third room, he strode to his daughter's yard and saw the piles of herbs and the cotton tunics and bedding piled up in the room. He was so angry that his whole body trembled.

"You, you are a spendthrift! When has it been so late that you dare to spend money indiscriminately? Do you know how much money there is in your family's account?"

"Father, listen to my explanation."

"Oh, this Sichuan Bei is broken. It is obviously a defective product from the pharmacy. Why did you buy it? Ying'er, it's not that the third aunt wanted to tell you on purpose. It's really that your child is too worry-free.

.I don’t know how to buy things, but I also spent so much money. Do you think our Liu family prints silver notes?"

An threw the Sichuan shells in his hand to the ground, walked to another pile of herbs with disgust, and opened them to check.

Seeing this, Liu Luoying hurriedly stepped forward to stop her: "Aunt 3, my medicinal materials are just bargains in the drugstore. They can't stand the unblocking, so you'd better not get started."

"Haha, you girl, it's so too much! The whole family is saving money, but you are wasting extravagant, which is really disappointing."

Liu Chengan had a sharp look, and felt that his daughter had done too much, and shouted loudly: "You can get rid of these wastes for me now!"

"Father, these things are made with my own money and have nothing to do with the family."

"You, you are so brave, you don't even listen to my words!"

"Father, there is a reason for Ying'er to do this. In a few days, you will understand your daughter."

If she had the character of the previous life, she would have had a big fight with her father, but now she is sincere in reasoning with her. Even An's sarcastic words did not anger her.

This made Liu Chengan stunned and looked at his little daughter carefully. After a long time, he said in a deep voice: "Okay, I'll wait a few days. If there is no reason to convince me, you will not have to get a monthly salary from your family again!



"Okay, it's up to you, Ying'er believes that her father will support her daughter by then." Liu Luoying smiled and her bright eyes made people feel sank in her heart, and she was a little convinced.

Liu Chengan felt that he must be crazy, and would believe this girl's words and turn around and leave quickly.

An originally had a lot of bad words, but he could save Liu Luoying's monthly salary in the future. So he smiled proudly and left with him. Before leaving, he sarcastically said, "Oh, Ying'er, if you lose your monthly salary,

You won’t spend money so much, this is a good thing.”

"It's not a matter of worrying about my third aunt."

Just wait. At that time, if your third room wants to get things from me, I will definitely charge you twice the money!

Liu Luoying made a face on her back, which made Bao Xia laugh out loud, and she had no choice but to shake her head and continue to inspect the goods.

The next morning, the master and servant continued to go out to buy supplies for winter, but they met an acquaintance on the street.

"Hey, isn't that the second son of the Luo family? I remember that the Luo family seemed to say they were going to the frontier."

"I don't know, I guess I heard the news and rushed back to the south."

Seeing the familiar figure flashing in a hurry, Liu Luoying was happy and hurriedly chased after her.

"Miss, what are you going to do?"

"You go to the pharmacy first, and I'll go find you later."

The three maids were holding things in their hands, and it was difficult to chase them, so they could only walk to the medicine shop on the corner of the street.

On the other side—

Liu Luoying was brisk in her pace and she was chasing her in the direction where Luo Ting disappeared with some anxiety.

"Tell them that I will meet with them in a few days."

It was indeed the voice of my second cousin!

Liu Luoying couldn't help but beating faster and she walked carefully into the alley.

"who?"

Suddenly, a cold light flashed by, and a cold dagger pressed against her eyebrows.
