Chapter 435 Little Milk Dog
Lin Jiaojiao was busy in Sinong Temple in the following days, and only arranged her trip to Fanwai yesterday.
Early in the morning, Lin Jiaojiao took Lan Jiu to the Gouer Market. It opens once every half a month, so it was just the right time for them to go shopping before leaving.
"Ajiu, this puppy is so cute, how about taking one back with you?"
Lin Jiaojiao bent over and looked at the three puppies in the bamboo basket. She immediately fell in love with the curly-haired puppy with a white body and khaki ears.
Somewhat like Teddy.
Lan Jiu stood beside her and looked at the white puppy in her arms, then raised his hand and touched its fluffy head.
"Then Xiaobai has company."
The vendor thought the two were a husband and wife relationship, and judging from their accents, they were from other places, so she hurriedly introduced them enthusiastically.
"This dog never grows up, has a gentle personality and is very clingy. Many noble men in Beijing keep it. Do you want to buy one for your husband?"
"how much is it?"
"Eight ounces of silver."
"Four taels."
The vendor's smile froze. How could he bargain the price in half?
She saw that the woman's dress did not seem like that of an ordinary person, and she must be wealthy, so she quoted a higher price.
She was glad that the price was overstated and there was still room for bargaining.
Lan Jiu watched her bargaining with the vendor, and his heart was moved when he thought about how she had not explained that he was not her husband.
In the end, the puppy was sold for six taels.
Lin Jiaojiao took the bamboo cage, held it and looked at the puppy inside. The more she looked, the cuter it looked.
"Ajiu, come and give this little guy a name."
Lan Jiu thought for a while, and under Lin Jiaojiao's expectant gaze, he slowly uttered two words.
"Six taels."
Lin Jiaojiao's eyes widened instantly after hearing this. She didn't expect that Lan Jiu was also bad at naming.
"Hahaha, six taels. That's six taels then."
"Wang Wang."
Then the two of them went to a bird stall and saw many birds. Unfortunately, they didn't see any lovebirds, but they did meet a talking starling.
Lin Jiaojiao bought it without thinking. It was quite expensive and they didn't allow bargaining. She spent ten taels of silver, but it was worth it. She took it back to entertain her elder brother and the others.
"Hey girl wait a minute."
Lin Jiaojiao turned her head and saw that it was the boss who had just sold the starling calling her.
"What's wrong, boss? But the silver is wrong?"
The boss ran to Lin Jiaojiao panting. She had just learned from others that these two were looking for the lovebirds.
"The silver is right, but does the lady want a peony?"
Lin Jiaojiao was surprised: "You have?"
The boss nodded and said, "Yes, I have more than ten of them, but they are all kept in the greenhouse. I want to release them when the weather gets milder."
Lin Jiaojiao also reacted immediately. She had forgotten that the bird was not cold-resistant. Now the temperature was over 10 degrees Celsius. She was afraid that the bird would freeze to death before leaving Jingzhou.
But she thought of Fu Qi's expectant look, and decided to take a few back with her justifiable reasons.
"How about this, give me your home address and I'll pick it up tomorrow."
The boss was happy to leave his address. These parrots are beautiful in color and are loved by the nobles. A lot of money was spent on firewood to let them spend the winter safely, and now he can finally make some money back.
Lin Jiaojiao took Lan Jiu for another walk around the market. Although this place is called a dog market, there are many other animals as well.
She also saw a stall that specialized in selling snake wine. Not only did they sell wine, they also sold snakes, which gave her goose bumps.
After returning to the inn, Liu Liang began to inspect the new territory.
Lin Jiaojiao sat on the chair, exchanged a wooden vine ball from the system, and threw it at the puppy rolling on the ground.
"Pick up the six taels."
Unfortunately, the puppy didn't understand. He just ran after the ball, held it, opened his mouth, shook his head and bit it.
"Six taels, six taels, six taels."
Although Liu Liang ignored him, the mynah bird in the birdcage on the table started to cry.
After hearing this, Lin Jiaojiao excitedly shouted to Lan Jiu who was sorting clothes: "Ah Jiu, the starling is talking."
When she bought the starling, she saw it learn to speak a few words from its previous owner, and it never spoke again after that.
Lan Jiu was folding clothes, looking up and smiling, "I heard it, it seems that the mynah bird also likes the name Six Liang, Miss, why don't you name it Ten Liang?"
"Ten taels, ten taels, ten taels."
After waking up from lunch break, Lin Jiaojiao was playing with Liu Liang in the room. Around 5 p.m., there was a knock on the door.
Lan Jiu went to the stable to tidy up the carriage. She picked up Liu Liang and walked to the door and opened it.
"Lin Chun is back. Did the people in the casino give you any trouble? By the way, the room has been reserved for you."
As Lin Jiaojiao spoke, she took Lin Chun to the room where she had lived before. The door was not locked.
Lin Chun walked into the room, put down the luggage in his hand, and stared at the little puppy in Lin Jiaojiao's arms with shining eyes.
"No problem. Although there are still five days before the month ends, Manager Liang still gave me five taels of silver."
Although Manager Liang tried to persuade her to stay, Liang Jun would not let her go and insisted that she leave her home address in Qingzhou. She had no choice but to leave her address and was able to get away and return.
Lin Jiaojiao thought that Lin Chun would have to pay a heavy price for leaving early, but she didn't expect him to leave so easily without losing any money.
"Not bad, not bad. It seems the shopkeeper is a reasonable person. Don't take the money for nothing. Take some instant noodles and candied fruits and send them to the casino later. It's a small token of your appreciation."
Lin Chun scratched his head in embarrassment. "Thank you, Sister Jiao. This is the first time I've seen such a cute puppy. Where did you buy it? If it's not expensive, I want to bring one back for Feifei."
Seeing that she liked it, Lin Jiaojiao immediately became interested. "I bought it at the dog market. I don't know if it's still available. This one of mine is six taels of silver. It has two younger brothers, but they are both brown, so they're five taels cheaper."
Lin Chun touched the silver in his purse which was still wet, and thought for a moment.
"Okay, Sister Jiao, I'll go take a look now."
"Wait a minute, Lin Chun, I'll go with you. We can go to the casino to express our gratitude."
She also thought about Feifei having a puppy, so Xiaoyu didn't feel so disappointed or envious.
Lin Jiaojiao put Liuliang back into the cage, then packed the instant noodles, candied fruits and other food into a bag and asked Lin Chun to take it.
When the two went downstairs, they happened to meet Lan Jiu who was going upstairs. Lin Jiaojiao greeted him and left with Lin Chun.
They first came to the door of Fangying Casino. Lin Jiaojiao did not go in, but asked Lin Chun to bring the things into the casino.
About a quarter of an hour later, Lin Chun came out of the museum, followed by a handsome young man with red eyes.
Lin Jiaojiao quickly hid behind a pillar and secretly poked her head out.
"Sister Lin, I will come to find you. You must pick me up and take me out for some delicious food."
Lin Chun had a headache. "Liang Jun, please don't come. It's a long journey and it's dangerous for a man like you. If you like to eat, I'll send you some food when the time comes."
Lin Jiaojiao shook her head when she heard this. They didn't really come here to eat, they were just short of saying it directly.
Lin Chun was anxious to see the puppy, and didn't want to bother any more, so he said goodbye and left. But when he turned around, he didn't find Lin Jiaojiao, and his heart skipped a beat.
Seeing that she was anxious and about to shout, Lin Jiaojiao hurried out from behind the pillar.
"Lin Chun, I'm here."
Lin Chun finally breathed a sigh of relief and trotted to her side, completely forgetting the reluctant young man behind him.
Fortunately, the dog vendor was still there, and Liu Liang’s brothers were also there.
After Lin Jiaojiao bargained again, the two little Teddy bears were packed up and taken away for six taels.
Not long after Lin Jiaojiao and Lin Chun left, a middle-aged man came to the stall.
"Boss, I want that puppy I saw earlier."
After saying that, she took out two taels of silver from her pocket and handed it over to the merchant, but the merchant did not take it. She also wanted to thank the uncle for hesitating and not buying immediately, otherwise she would not have made so much money.
"Uncle, you are late. Both of them have been bought."
