The  way people sell vegetables were in the same style. Even modern people  still maintain this ancient style. This thousand years of culture and  living habits were kept intact.
Dumplings  have meat, so Bai Zhi bought 3 pounds of pork belly and a piece of pork  lard, to be used for frying.  She also bought a handful of leeks.  Additionally, she bought several seasonal vegetables such as green  peppers, eggplants, and string beans. She also bought another small  wooden barrel to keep the newly bought two fishes alive.
Thinking about Zhao  Lan and Hu Changlin’s broken hands, Bai Zhi bought some pork ribs and  corn. She was planning to cook them a pot of corn soup.
As for herself, as long as she properly nourished herself, she could grow taller. And so, she bought herself 2 pounds of beef.
Then, she  bought the seasonings that were missing in the kitchen. She also bought  some rice and noodles, which were all put in the oxcart.
“Have  you bought everything?” Hu Feng asked with knitted eyebrows. This  little girl was seemingly walking around the market, but she actually  knew what she needs. She doesn’t spend a lot of time, nor need a long  hour to buy things. Her speed to buys things was pretty fast.
Unlike some other  people who just entered the town, they find everything around them  strange. And so when they touch things, they wasted a lot of time  observing.
Bai Zhi nodded her head: “Mmm bought them. Now, let’s go to the clothes store.”
The four people rushed to the clothing store with the oxcart. While  on the road, they passed by the bulletin board that the government has  built in the long street. A yellow colored notice was posted, so many  people were looking around.
There were many people around, but only a few can read the words on the post.
When  they arrived in front of the bulletin board, Hu Feng suddenly stopped  the oxcart and looked at the yellow notice. As the words entered his  eyes, his straight eyebrows gradually wrinkled. He couldn’t tell why,  but his heart was feeling very uncomfortable. He was also feeling dizzy.
Hu Changlin asked: “What did the notice say?”
When Hu Feng came back to his senses, he shook his head to throw away the inexplicable emotions he felt.
Then, he said: “This is the emperor’s notice, to tell the world that his Cefeng Imperial Consort Chun became the empress.”
Who knows  why, but when he mentioned the emperor and Imperial Consort Chun his  heart gave birth to strange emotions. Did he know the emperor and  Imperial Consort Chun before?
Hu  Feng shook his head, after all, that was impossible. He was in the  northwest border. It was a thousand miles away from the capital, where  the emperor and Imperial Consort Chun lives. How could it be possible  for him to know them?
Hu Changlin just snorted, he didn’t ask Hu Feng another question. He only asked him to hurry and drive.
What the imperial family’s things have got to do to commoners like them?
When  the carriage stopped in front of the clothes store, Bai Zhi pulled Zhao  Lan’s hand to enter. The store not only sold all kinds of expensive  fabrics but also ready-to-wear garments. All kind of fabrics were  displayed, even the cheapest fabrics for poor people from the mountain  village was available. But this cheapest fabric was the most sturdy coarse clothes.
This kind of coarse  cloth clothes only has a single color. Most color available was dark,  such as dark red, dark blue, black, gray and the like.
While silk  clothes were light in color and comfortable. The color selection was  also a lot more. The price was much cheaper than the satin, which was  much more expensive than the coarse cloth.
Bai Zhi chose a set of coarse clothes and silk clothes for herself and Zhao Lan. The colors were bright and beautiful.
Zhao  Lan has never walked through the clothes store in her life. So, when  she touched the smooth surface of the fabrics and looked at the bright  colors and delicate cuts, she couldn’t tell how many times it was better  compared to the rough linen she was wearing.
It was  something that women like, so she was no exception: “Does it cost a lot  of money?” However, although she likes them, she can’t help but worried  about money.
