Rebirth of Lucky Wife

Flowers bloom on two branches, and words are divided on two ends. That day, after Mai Yingren sent his fifth brother to the south city gate, he took his only daughter to the famous market in the south city, which was the ancient flea market, to search for ancient books.

It is said that the East is rich and the West is noble, and the South is poor and the North is humble. Although the South City and North City of Kyoto are both places for the lower class to live, don’t underestimate the foot of the Imperial City. Whose family has a story for several generations?

The top of the North City is one of the eight major alleys in Kyoto, Qingyanliu Lane, a good place to shake money and play dice.The south city is quieter than the north city, and there are more people who do hard work such as carpenters and masons.Since it was quiet, there were also some literati or poor families living in it. Some of them went to Beijing to take the exam and passed the exam. Because they felt that the journey home was too far and they wasted their study time, they rented a more secluded house in Nancheng. , study with peace of mind; most of them are the descendants of the important officials of the former dynasty. Due to the successful rebellion of the Old Wei family, the direct descendants were beaten into prisoners, their homes were ransacked, or they were exiled to the border - and these descendants were picked up because they were far apart. In order to save their lives, some ran away far away from the capital, while others refused to leave the prosperity of Kyoto and stayed in Nancheng. These people formed the wealthy circle of Nancheng and were the source of most of the tax revenue in Nancheng.

In fact, as long as they live a stable life and don't want to mess around or do things they shouldn't do, the emperor of Wei will not embarrass them.

As time goes by, after three or four generations, some of the wealthy households in the past became even richer and moved to Dongcheng, while others whose families fell into decline but did not want to give up the extravagant and wealthy life began to sell their ancestral property to make a living because the things were good and the prices were reasonable. A market slowly appeared here.Nancheng City usually has a large flow of people. Later, due to its growing reputation, the Nancheng Chamber of Commerce was formed in the early years of Mingguang.

The president of the Nancheng Chamber of Commerce, whose surname is Hua, is a woman, but she is a good hand in business. She is as decisive as a man in the business field.When President Hua took office, he made the decision to prepare for the Nancheng Market. In the first few years, on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, his subordinates worked hard to build momentum and attract traffic. He also invited oirans from the Bada Hutong to parade in the streets and perform dances. Once the market was opened, the market was even more crowded. Invite Ming, the chief oiran in Kyoto, to play and sing, attracting most of the people in the capital to come and buy.Nancheng Market became an instant hit and has become a scene in Kyoto ever since. All merchants and tourists... no matter what the purpose of coming to Beijing, will come to Nancheng Market to do some shopping. The fun is quite similar to "gamble on stones" .

At first, it was just those whose families were down and out, exchanging some antique vases, jade bowls and chopsticks that they could no longer use at home. Later, some family members who didn’t like reading but liked extravagance went behind the family’s back and sold the items passed down by their ancestors. There are solitary copybooks and chess records; there are also students from poor families who come to copy books or sell their own paintings and calligraphy. Some of these people will later become the new rich, and the price of calligraphy and painting before winning the imperial examination can immediately double several times... All these kinds of things, the literati in the capital city Scholars love to come here to buy and exchange things. They can buy anything from copybooks, inscriptions, chess scores, piano scores... They enjoy discerning pearls with their discerning eyes. If they are lucky, they can also find the only copies of the great masters of the past. It is truly an elegant place. As time went by, Nancheng Market was also called "Nancheng Elegant Market".

At this time, Mai Ya'er was being held in Mai Yingren's arms, and they were reading together the book that the bookstall owner recommended to such and such a person in his hand.

Uh-huh, Maiya'er nodded. Seeing that the book cover was made of yellowed white tissue paper, he knew that he had spent money on making it retro and distressed. I don't know if his father could tell... Malya'er looked at it again and hugged him. A large pile of so-called "unique copies" of Xiaosi Feng's books.

Ma Ya'er doesn't know anything about antiques, but she is a transborn young man who graduated in 985 or 211. She still understands the basic rhythm of Tang poetry and Song poetry. The articles written by these great writers are really unbearable; she has read her fifth uncle's calligraphy, how impressive it is. It's better than what the bookstall owner said about Zhu Wenhao, who is more beautiful and elegant. Her fifth uncle is only 26 this year. No matter how talented he is, he will definitely not be as good as the previous writer who has been writing all his life. I really don't know how her father can do this if he is very smart. Be fooled.

Ma Ya'er was a little unhappy. It's okay to lie to my father. If you cheat my father's money, you're cheating my money. No!
