Chapter 732 She and the Ma Family Are Incompatible

Seeing the puzzled look in the little girl's eyes, Bai Yunxi raised his hand and stroked her bun, "Your mother is right, ice making is currently considered a craft. You can sell as much or as little as you want, and we really can't interfere.

"It's all money earned based on skills. Before you didn't know how to make ice, wouldn't you have no objection? Who wouldn't want to earn more if they have exclusive skills in their hands?"

"Moreover, no matter how expensive it is, the business of selling ice is still very popular, and people who can afford it still line up in long lines. What does it mean?"

Hearing Bai Yunxi's question, Zhang Yishan was stunned, "Because everyone who buys ice is not short of money."

"Yes, ordinary people are reluctant to spend two cents to buy a piece of ice, just to cool down. Let alone two cents, even two cents will not be considered."

The life of the working people has nothing to do with enjoyment other than food and clothing, so no matter how high the price of ice is, it will not affect them.

Of course no one paid attention.

Looking at the little girl's half-understanding eyes, Zhang Yiren burst into laughter.

"Silly girl, your Aunt Bai taught you how to do it, why are you still so stupid that you can't react?"

"But we also feel that buying ice is expensive." The little girl frowned and looked at the two of them.

"Even if you think it's expensive, will it affect your meal?"

Zhang Yiren held back a smile and looked at Bai Yunxi. Although her daughter knew that the common people were not easy, she had very little contact with them and did not know the real life of the common people.

"That doesn't matter."

"So, ice cubes are sold to rich people, and ordinary people don't care at all. Because they don't buy it, instead of wasting money buying ice to cool down, it's better to get a bucket of well water and pour it from head to toe to cool down. "

"Ah? Can you cool down like this?" Zhang Yishan opened her mouth in surprise, but then she felt it was too rude and quickly covered it with a handkerchief, her eyes still wide open.

Zhang Yiren looked at her daughter's shocked look and shook her head helplessly.

"Your Aunt Bai is right. You are blessed. You were reborn in my belly. You have never experienced any hardship since you were a child. Naturally, you don't know what ordinary people's lives are like."

Zhang Yishan's face turned red and she looked at Bai Yunxi nervously, "Aunt Bai, I seem to understand."

"It doesn't matter. After running the shop for a long time, I will have a deeper understanding."

Bai Yunxi looked at her, the world was like this, some people fell into a honey pot as soon as they were born, and some people were destined to suffer from the moment they were born.

"Just like our ice bowl, it was originally intended for wealthy men and young girls who had no worries about food and drink in their backyards. As long as items have nothing to do with people's livelihood, they won't attract much attention."

As long as the common people do not consume anything, even if it is extremely expensive, they will not pay too much attention to it except for a few words after tea and dinner.

He taught the Liang brothers how to make ice, and Baiyun Xi told them that saltpeter can be used repeatedly, which surprised the little girl. It was a hugely profitable business.

After staying at Zhang's house for a long time, Bai Yunxi didn't get up and leave until the afternoon, and returned to the rental house to prepare meals. When Du and Wenyou came back, Bai Yunxi told them about going home.

"I have handed over the management of the shop to Sister Shan. We will leave when the rent is due. We have been out for long enough and it is time to go home."

When Mrs. Du heard this, she immediately became anxious, "Mom, will we come again in the future?"

"What? Can't bear to leave?" Bai Yunxi looked at her anxious look. Since he came to the county, this person has not been idle. He thought she had been looking forward to going home.

"No, it's just that the business in the shop is so good, so I suddenly vacated it, so I couldn't bear to leave."

Du Shi smiled coquettishly, mainly because she came to the county to see the world, and felt that there were some differences between the people in the county and the people in the country. If she stayed for a few more days, maybe she would also grow up.

Listening to Du's voice, Bai Yunxi smiled knowingly. In fact, people are all the same. It's just that she came into contact with many people in the shop, and her mood became cheerful, so she naturally looked at things differently.

When she is so busy, how can she have time to feel sorry for herself?

"Don't worry, we will be back soon." The next time we come, it will be the time when the ducks raised by Xiao Si are on the market.

In the days that followed, Mrs. Du still went to work in the store, and Baiyunxi walked around the county in her free time. She was not stingy with money in her hands, so she went to Duobao Pavilion again and chose another one for each of her children. Silver hairpin.

The engraved pattern looks great when paired with similar earrings and worn with clothes.

As for herself, this time she chose an auspicious cloud hairpin made of old red sandalwood. She heard that red sandalwood calms the mind and nourishes the body. After all, she is already old, and health care is her first choice.

"Wenyou, this simple plain silver suit you, would you like to try it on?"

Wenyou took it and looked at it. There were only a few texture lines engraved on the tail of the hairpin. It was indeed simple enough.

"This is good, I like it."

The shopkeeper has been very impressed with Bai Yunxi since he met her last time.

"Mrs. Bai has great taste, especially your Xiangyun red sandalwood hairpin and plain silver hairpin. Although the shape is simple, they are all the work of master carvers. There is the Zhuang Master's signature mark under the tail of the hairpin."

"Really? I didn't pay attention to this." Bai Yunxi looked carefully and found that there was indeed a circular seal.

When it comes to everyone's creations, the price is not cheap either. Her red sandalwood auspicious cloud hairpin costs five guan, and Wenyou's plain silver hairpin costs two guan. The rest are quite heavy, so together they can match their price. .

This is the celebrity effect, everyone’s work.

After paying the money, Bai Yunxi and Wenyou directly inserted the hairpins into their buns and packed up the rest.

"Shopkeeper, pack up the old red sandalwood hairpin that our lady saw last time. It's our old lady's birthday, so we decided to give it to her as a birthday gift."

The one who spoke was the maid who walked in front. She opened the curtain to let the master in and spoke directly.

Madam Ma put one hand on the maid's hand, walked in slowly, and looked at the shopkeeper gently.

Behind her, followed Ma Juan and the maid named Qingguo.

"After thinking about it, I still think that the old red sandalwood auspicious cloud hairpin is more suitable. It can nourish the mind and body, and is suitable for the elderly."

When Bai Yunxi heard this, she thought about the hairpin she had put on the plug first, and silently looked at the roof. She and the aunt and nephew Ma were incompatible and conflicting.

When the shopkeeper heard this, her expression was stunned, and she subconsciously looked at the top of Bai Yunxi's head.

Ma Ruren seemed to have just discovered Bai Yunxi. When she saw her, she was surprised.

"Are you the Bai family I met last time?"

"Ma Ruren has a good memory. It's me." Bai Yunxi bowed slightly and replied gently.

"What a coincidence." I don't know if Ma Ruren saw the hairpin on her head, but she was still smiling.

"Who said it wasn't? It won't disturb Ma Ruren's interest. Goodbye."

Bai Yunxi stood up and glanced at Wenyou. The two of them turned around and left with a few boxes.
