With the influx of businessmen one after another into Lishi County, local prices have also undergone some changes.
The most obvious one is that the prices of restaurants and guesthouses have increased compared with before.
Although for these people from Chang'an City, , the current price is also quite affordable.
When many merchants go north, they don't come here empty-handed.
Many of them bring some things that are not available or rare here to sell.
Among them, the safest business is silk fabrics.
Earlier in Lishi County, a piece of silk sold for 350 or 60 cents.
Now the price has dropped to only 310 or 20 cents.
Many wealthy households in the city have been stocking up recently. , I’m afraid there won’t be a shop like this after passing this village.
In fact, the same silk is produced in different places and woven by different people, and the quality may vary.
When Luo Yong entered the city this time, he happened to encounter a cart of silk cloth brought from Chang'an.
Many people in the city who were familiar with Luo Yong said that this batch of silk was good, with good quality, good size, thick fabric, and good price.
It was suitable, so Luo Yongbian also bought one.
Luo Yong planned to use this piece of silk to make underwear for his brothers and sisters.
However, his second wife was very busy recently and had no time to make this, so she had to take it to the widow's house in the village and ask them to help tailor it.
Widows are also very common these days.
There are several in their village.
The reason why this family is called the widow's family is because they have three widows and no sons.
They rely on an old woman to take care of their two daughters-in-law to support the following few children. grandchildren.
The old woman's surname was Sun, and the villagers usually called her Widow Sun.
Widow Sun was also a good housekeeper.
There was no man in the family.
She took care of her two daughters-in-law and managed to survive.
She also had one grandchild and one grandchild.
All lands are well maintained.
Two years ago, when Luo Sanlang was still young, he saw this widow carrying a hoe to the door of someone's house because the man in that family said something frivolous to her daughter-in-law.
None of the two daughters-in-law in her family have remarried, and the widow grandson should also be indispensable.
In the situation of their family, if another daughter-in-law remarries, the life will be difficult.
If both of them remarry, then The little babies in this yard have no way to survive.
"Sanlang, why are you here?"
Seeing that it was Luo Lailai, Widow Sun hurriedly greeted her outside the yard.
Ever since she learned the art of making tofu from Luo Sanlang, her family's life has been getting better and better day by day.
Now her granddaughter has learned the art of knitting sweaters and socks from Luo Erniang, and she can now earn a lot of money.
Money aside, I will definitely find a good family in the future.
There were rumors earlier that all the women in their family were destined to be widows.
Her eldest daughter had grown up to be thirteen or fourteen years old, and no one even asked her.
Now someone came to ask, but she was not in a hurry to marry her granddaughter.
The family can make money, and the granddaughter is skilled, so there is no harm in staying for one or two more years.
She must choose this grandson-in-law carefully.
No matter what, she must find someone with good character and strong body.
Don't let the good grandson leave again.
Follow their old ways.
"I bought a piece of silk from the city.
I want to make some underwear for the family, but my second mother has no time."
Luo Yong followed her into the yard with a batch of silk in his arms.

"But one person has to make one."
Widow Sun happily borrowed the batch of silk cloth.
No clothes were left behind, and in the blink of an eye, it had been many years since I had touched such fine fabrics.
"It doesn't matter how much you make.
There's just so much silk anyway.
Just make as much as you can."
This piece of silk cloth is probably not enough for each of them to make two outfits.
Whatever is left over, I'll make it.
Not to mention the married aunt, there are currently six brothers and sisters in their family, and the second mother is the only one who makes the sewing girl famous.
Speaking of which, the Luo family is living a good life at the moment, and they have better food than most at this time.
They are nice people, but what they are wearing is actually a bit sloppy.
"Okay, let me help you measure the size first.
Erniang and the others will ask my eldest daughter-in-law to come over later."
Widow Sun said and took out a piece of hemp rope.
"I heard that Grandma Sun has the best craftsmanship.
I would like to ask Grandma to help me make my clothes properly."
The implication is that his own clothes should be made by Grandma Sun herself and should not be handed over to her daughter-in-law or granddaughter. .
Erniang and the others were fine, anyway, Grandma Sun and her family were all women, so there was no problem of avoiding suspicion, but things were a little different here with Luo Yong.
"I don't have to worry about it.
Don't worry, I will help you do it properly."
Widow Sun said with a smile.
She is not that stupid person.
In the past, her mother's family was much more particular than in this Xipo Village, and she could not understand this matter clearly.
After taking the measurements, Luo Yong asked about the wages.
"It costs a lot of money, but if you don't want those pieces of cloth, just keep them and give them to me."
Widow Sun said.
"Then why, tailoring clothes is not easy."
Luo Yong said quickly.
"That's how the market is.
Sanlang doesn't need to say anything."
There is no need for poor people to waste cloth.
The extra pieces of cloth can be put together to make two small clothes for her two youngest grandchildren.
This silk cloth It's much softer than linen.
Those who are willing to give away the cloth head are already considered generous.
Some people even want to take the cloth head back and only pay a little bit of wages.
Since the other party had already said that the market was like this, Luo Yong said no more, only thanked him again, and then left the yard of Widow Sun's house.
After she walked away, Widow Sun put away the piece of silk and said to the red-faced granddaughter on the kang who was knitting the sleeves of a sweater: "Why are you blushing?
Luo Sanlang has not said anything to you since he entered the room for a long time.
Take a look over there.” "" Her granddaughter buried her head lower, but her ears became even redder.
"Do you know he has no intention of you?"
Grandma Sun said again.
"I know."
Her granddaughter whispered back.
"It's good if you know."
Grandma Sun sighed, sat down on the edge of the Kang, and said: "If Luo Sanlang can like the daughter of a certain family in the village, no one can extrapolate it.

If he is right How can I not be happy for you if you are interested?
It’s just that my eyes can really see that he has no intention of you. " "I know."
How could she not know that Luo Sanlang didn't mean anything to her.
"It's good that you know.
Don't think about these things all day long, or you may get your brain confused."
Widow Sun said helplessly.
If the young man wants to be tempted, no one can stop him.
He can only remind her every now and then to stop her from being confused by those delusions.
Not to mention her granddaughter, there are several teenage girls in the village who have never dreamed of marrying Luo Sanlang.
Many adults in the village are also happy to see it happen, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that Luo Sanlang There is no such intention at all.
Widow Sun also thinks highly of Luo Sanlang.
No matter what his family assets or business, in terms of character alone, there are probably not many young people in this area who can match him.
The teenage boy has a good appearance, and his behavior is upright and refreshing.
He is not as superficial and impetuous as other teenagers.
When you look at him, he seems to have many things on his mind, and he doesn't treat others at all.
It's no wonder that these young girls in the village are so malicious.
It would be strange if such a young man was not liked by others.
On this side, Luo Yong returned to his yard and concentrated on making his wool felt cushions.
With the increasing number of orders, he was now eager to improve the efficiency of felt making.
The main felting methods of wool felt are needle felting and wet felting.
The needle felting method uses fine needles to poke the felt.
The wool felt produced in this way is relatively fine, but the speed is quite slow.
The wet felting method is to pour hot water on the wool felt, and after repeated rubbing, tapping and rolling, it can achieve the purpose of rapid felting.
The wet felting method is fast, but it is inevitable that there are some details that cannot be taken care of.
For the mats Luo Yong made before, the front side was made of needle felt, and the back side was only one color and could be wet felted.
In the past few days, he wanted to try wet felting on the front as well.
Instead of just using wet felting, he just laid out a few main colors first, and then added other details through needle felting later.
In this way, it should be It can also save some time, but it will test the craftsmanship of the maker.
If you are not careful, the flowers will lose their shape.
Luo Yong was so busy that he didn't come out of the backyard until it was dark.
At this time, Er Niang had already finished feeding the pigs and had just come back from outside.
The aroma of noodles wafted from the grocery store.
Luo Yong walked over and saw that Siniang Wulang had already prepared tonight's meal.
It wasn't anything complicated, just a big pot of hot dumplings.
It's noodle soup.
In the soup, there is a cabbage that the aunt brought from the Lin family, and some mutton was cut into it, and then sprinkled with a handful of chopped green onions.
Such a pot of noodle soup is already very good in this era of material scarcity.
Food is served.
Si Niang and Wu Lang made dough soup from the pot and placed bowls of it on the table.
It is common for seven or eight-year-old children in the village to wash and cook, and some of them followed them to the fields early.
Si Niang and Wu Lang According to the actual age, one is eleven years old and the other is nine years old, which is not too young at this time.
"Brother, it tastes good if you try it."
Siniang looked at Luo Yong with a smile and said.
Without giving him chopsticks, Luo Yong had no choice but to take a sip at the edge of the bowl.
He felt a little salty in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Yes, this dumpling is delicious."

At this time, Er Niang brought a pair of chopsticks and distributed them to everyone.
She also sat down and took a bite.
She frowned.
She was about to say why the soup was so salty, but she saw Luo Yong wink at her, so that As soon as the words reached my mouth, I swallowed them together with the salty soup.
"It's delicious.
Liulang and Qiniang should eat more."
Luo Yong praised, while going outside the yard to get a few frozen pears and soaking them in cold water.
After eating the glutinous rice cakes, each one must be a must-have.
Thirsty.
Liulang and Qiniang were both still young, and children are easy to coax.
Once the atmosphere was heated up, they heard that the brothers and sisters said it was delicious, and they thought it was delicious too.
That silly girl Qiniang even added more twice.
"What's up, Qiniang, the dumplings made by my sister are delicious," Luo Yong continued to induce.
"It's delicious," Qiniang replied sharply.
"Hee hee" Si Niang listened on the sidelines and laughed so hard that she couldn't see her teeth.
That night, Luo Sanlang drank a lot of water.
Fortunately, there was hot water burning on the bed, so he could drink as much as he wanted.
The next day, Luo Yong was still busy working in the backyard.
He only came out occasionally when someone came to look for him in the front yard.
Er Niang was also busy with her own business.
Among the people who came to buy peony cushions these days, many of them took a fancy to the turtleneck sweater Luo Yong was wearing and placed orders.
So Er Niang mobilized several people in the village to The little girl knitted sweaters together, and she had to knit sweaters and feed the pigs herself, so there was no time to stop.
The grocery store in front was basically given to Siniang and Wulang, and Liulang and Qiniang also played there during the day.
Not long after breakfast this morning, Siniang began to think about what to cook for lunch.
Her brothers and sisters all said that the food she cooked was delicious, and the six mothers and seven mothers also loved it.
Siniang felt that she She is indeed very talented at cooking, and she will show off her skills at noon today.
