Madam Tang didn’t want this to happen too often, and she didn’t want her son to be held back either, so she kept her distance from the villagers.
As a result, when she met someone who greeted her, Madam Tang would just nod and ignore them.
As time passed, people were not willing to be too intimate with them.
In contrast, when Tang Wenqian went to the county alone, more people would greet him.
Madam Tang’s voice was rendered speechless by his words and didn’t say anything else. However, looking at the distant mule carriage, her brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
Shu Yu drove the mule carriage into the city. It was still early, so they planned to return to Liufang Alley first, put down the chicken cage and other things, and then go to the county office to take a look.
However, not long after entering the city, Shu Yu’s mule carriage suddenly slowed down.
“What’s wrong?” the old lady asked curiously.
“Grandma, we need to bring something over when asking for help, right? It’s not good to go empty-handed.”
The old lady was stunned and nodded slightly. “Then, what should we buy?”
If the other party was from the village, the old lady would have an idea. But now, not only did the old lady not have any experience in giving gifts to soldiers, but she also had to worry about whether the gifts had to be expensive.
If she had to spend too much money, the old lady couldn’t bear it… It was quite contradictory.
Shu Yu smiled and pointed to a shop not far away. “We’ll buy that.”
The old lady looked out of the carriage window and saw the wine jars outside the shop. She immediately put her hands together. “Yes, it’s the most suitable to give them wine.”
Shu Yu drove the mule carriage to the space next to the wine shop and jumped down from the shaft.
‘Grandma, wait for me here. I’ll go in and buy a few bottles of wine.”
The old lady said in a low voice, “Don’t spend too much money, understand?”
“I know what to do.”
Shu Yu reassured her and strode into the wine store.
The name of the shop was very simple. It was called Auspicious Wine Shop. Although the shop was not very big, it was still more impressive than her ready-to-wear clothes shop.
As soon as she reached the door, she could smell the fragrance of wine. It floated straight to her nose.
The man behind the counter suddenly looked up, perhaps because he heard footsteps. When he saw Shu Yu at the door, he was slightly stunned. The next moment, he smiled. “Miss, would you like want to get some wine?
“Yes, I want to buy a few bottles of wine as a gift. Sir, can you recommend a suitable one?
Jiang Yi immediately understood what she wanted and walked out from behind the counter. “This way, please.”
Shu Yu followed him into the shop and walked to the left side. The decoration in this area was different. The wine jars on the ground were much more eye-catching, and the small wine bottles on the countertop were even more exquisite.
Jiang Yi introduced them as he asked, “Miss, what do you think of these? If they aren’t suitable, we have more in the backyard.”
Shu Yu waved her hand. “I’ll take a look first. I’ll tell you when I’m done.”
Jiang Yi nodded. “Alright, take your time.”
After saying that, he returned to the counter.
Shu Yu was quite knowledgeable about wine. In her previous life, this was the most basic common sense for her.
The wine of the Dasu Dynasty was relatively turbid, and the concentration was not high.
Shu Yu picked for a moment and took three different bottles of wine from the cabinet.
When she returned to the counter, Jiang Yi, who had been standing behind the counter, had disappeared. In his place was a woman..
