During the seven-day carriage journey, Qing Yan felt sore all over her body.
If she hadn't gone to the space to rest occasionally, she would have been like Concubine Tong and could only rest on the bed.
After these days of hard work, they finally stopped having to struggle on the carriage.
In the afternoon, they were able to board the dragon boat going down to the south of the Yangtze River.
"My dear, take everything on the carriage with you.
We will stay on the ship for almost a month."
Yin asked Su Peisheng and Su Lan to pack up, and he took Qing Yan to a nearby small county town.
This day happened to be the day when the county town went to the market.
The lively atmosphere made Qing Yan's lips slightly raised.
On both sides were some farmers who brought their money to their homes and came to exchange for some silver coins.
They looked at Yin and Qing Yan's Brightly dressed, expect these two to stand at their counter.
"I want that."
Qing Yan saw a place to buy shrimps.
There was a large wooden basin with a lot of shrimps densely packed inside.
It would be very delicious if made into shrimp cakes.
"Si Si, this thing is pretty good."
Qing Yan looked at Qing Yan with a smile.
These things all taste great.
On weekdays, when they were in the palace, no slave would dare to use such a thing to fool around.
Yin looked down and saw a black line.
These small shrimps were inedible at first glance and were only used for the turtles that Lao Jiu kept at his elder brother's place.
Just when he was about to refuse, he saw the excitement in her eyes and swallowed the words that came to her lips.
"Old man, how do you sell these?"
Qing Yan stared at a large basin of shrimps.
Today, it would be good to fry some more and prepare them as snacks.
"A big pot."
The old man looked at the banquet and moved his mouth.
"If you buy too much, you won't be able to eat it.
You can't buy it overnight."
Qing Yan instantly felt that the old man was honest in his business.
She looked aside and saw some larger crabs.
Aren’t there hairy crabs only in Yangcheng Lake?
"This is a river crab."
Qing Yan pointed at this.
"Yes, I'll give you 20 copper plates for this big basin.
I can't give you the wooden basin."
The old man looked at the shrimps.
He originally thought that it would be great to sell some shrimps if he had pets like those of noble people.
Anyway, these things All cost-free.
"We want these crabs too," Yin followed Qing Yan and said helplessly, "Old man, we want these two wooden basins.
I'll give you 50 coppers for each wooden basin."
The guard behind them had already taken out the coins and started to pick up the two wooden basins in front of the old man.
"Just send it to the kitchen."
Su Peisheng's eyes couldn't help but light up.
It seemed that Fujin was ready to take action himself.

Qing Yan glanced at the old man's excited look from the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but feel a little bitter.
In their eyes, dozens of copper coins were nothing at all.
For ordinary farmers, it might be a month's living expenses.
Qing Yan and Yin made a clear explanation and left, but a short hissing sound came from behind.
"Old Ningtou, you have met a noble person, and you sold them all at once."
"Yeah, I'll get some of this next time.
I really have met a noble person."
Qing Yan pursed his lips and smiled.
They were leaving in the afternoon.
They would definitely not be able to buy anything when they went to the market next time.
The vendors on both sides looked at Qing Yan's lavish spending and shouted loudly at their food.
She suddenly saw a stall of batik coarse cloth in front of her.
She quickly walked forward and looked at the dark blue cloth.
There were some irregularities on it.
White flowers.
Immediately, it attracted the realization of Qingyan.
These coarse cloths were rarely available, and the sheets and other items they used were basically made of silk.
"I want this cloth too, and spread it on the bed when I get back."
Qing Yan's little paws touched the coarse cloth sheets of several colors.
They felt very similar to modern coarse cloth wound belts.
It seemed that there would be nothing wrong with them.
Yin completely stopped talking.
He would not stop the little guy from buying whatever he wanted.
These thick little things had a different kind of wild charm.
"Don't buy too much, just one or two kinds will be enough."
There are many snack stalls outside, one of which sells sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by Yangzhou people.
Before coming out, Kangxi and Tong Guifei repeatedly ordered that Qingyan must not buy it outside.
She could only squint her mouth to enjoy these things that were put directly into her mouth.
A little later, the few guards who came out had already made two or three trips to put out the food, and the feast was still unfinished.
In her hand, she also held some dried eggplants and beans dried by the peasant women, as well as some pork belly and bamboo shoots.
Dry Yin looked at the small basket Sulan was carrying and couldn't help but want to hold her forehead.
Did this girl think she was here to do the shopping?
"Let's go" Yin was determined not to be embarrassed here anymore, and quickly carried the Qingyan to the dragon boat.
The stall owners they visited were all beaming with joy.
Not only did they collect a few boxes of dried bamboo shoots, dried vegetables and other items, they also bought two pork stalls and complained.
"Xiao Guai, we are going on the road.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs is ready.
"How can you buy these things casually?
What if there is a problem?"
Yin shook his head helplessly.
Xiao Guai thought of everyone too well.
Qing Yan smiled.
None of what she bought was likely to be bribed.
They were basically stalls owned by ordinary people who knew each other.
The two pork stalls were where locals bought their meat, so there would definitely be no problem.

"You don't have to eat it."
Qing Yan snorted coldly and went straight into the small kitchen, instructing Su Lan to quickly clean out the shrimps.
Several low-level palace maids in the small kitchen used Qingyan's special scrapers to hang shredded radish according to the Qingyan's requirements.
The uniform strips of radish were better than the average imperial chef's knife skills, and most importantly, they were faster.
The eyes of the imperial chefs who came to help him brightened up, and they couldn't help thinking that if they serve Sifujin well during this period, they will definitely get close to him when they return.
"In a moment, as I said, you stew the meat, put on the soaked dried bamboo shoots and dried beans, and stew it in a casserole.
Send one portion to the imperial ship and the other to Prince Zhi's ship. , keep one portion for yourself.
Remember to follow the rules of the mansion and make the bone soup directly.
Throw it into a jar and cook it.
During the night watch, add some sweet potato flour and the like that you brought and use it.
You don’t need to remove the heads of the small shrimps, just add the beards and mix them directly with shredded carrots and flour, and then fry them.
"It's a feast."
After explaining everything clearly, he turned and left the kitchen.
After coming out, Qing Yan followed Concubine Tong's wishes and stopped cooking in person.
She explained everything step by step before leaving to do her own thing.
Stepping into the cabin, she was surprised to find that the inner cabin was arranged according to her courtyard, and even the study room outside was prepared one to one.
"How's it going?
Do you like it?"
Yin came behind Qing Yan and looked at the little guy's surprised look and couldn't help but laugh happily.
"They are all prepared according to my yard."
Qing Yan smiled.
Yin nodded.
If she had to stay here for nearly a month, having a familiar environment would at least help her sleep better.
Unlike when she was in the carriage, she would often be awakened by nightmares:
