Chapter 87 Local Language
"Oh, I understand!" There was a proud look in this sister-in-law's eyes. She is a good citizen and has a higher status than a slave.
However, when she thought that the other party had an owner, it was a big family. When beating a dog, it depends on the owner. Don't bully, and be polite when speaking.
While waiting in line, my sister-in-law and Shen Yunxi chatted a lot.
Shen Yunxi heard many things, such as buying rapeseed, oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar, go to the grocery store not far away; if you want to buy and sell grain, cattle and sheep, go to Dongcheng; if you want to buy clothes, go to the West Market.
While chatting with his sister-in-law, Shen Yunxi also discovered that people in the south are really rich. Even if ordinary farmers only have a few acres of land, they still have enough to live on and have a surplus. If you work hard and raise silkworms, you can earn more. Make more money and live a prosperous life.
Shen Yunxi has strong language skills and can basically understand what her sister-in-law said. Then she asked about methods of growing rice and various vegetables.
My sister-in-law bought a few kilograms of grain seeds and left.
Shen Yunxi carefully observed the few dialects the locals said when buying grain seeds and practiced them in a low voice.
Tian Daniu watched his mother study the local language seriously. In fact, she learned a lot of it.
What surprised Tian Daniu even more happened. When it was their turn to buy grain seeds, his mother was already proficient in buying grain seeds in the local language.
This guy was very busy. He thought Shen Yunxi was a local and he didn't dare to bully him or cheat him. He weighed a thousand kilograms of good seeds and put them in ten big sacks.
Six sacks were placed in the car and four were placed on the ground, waiting for the village chief and Tian Ergou to arrive.
Tian Daniu gave a thumbs up and said, "Mom, that's great. You can speak the local dialect very quickly."
Shen Yunxi smiled and said: "If you want to stay in the local area, you have to learn to speak the local dialect, otherwise you will never be able to integrate into the local area and will be rejected by the local people. You are still young, so you can learn better. Don't be lazy. "
Tian Daniu nodded and said to Shen Yunxi in the local dialect: "Mom, I understand."
Shen Yunxi praised: "Not bad. Let us listen carefully and learn from each other before the village chief comes."
Both mother and son were very smart and eager to learn. They quickly learned many sentences and talked to each other.
Chief Tamura and Tian Ergou came back pushing the bullock cart. They were both a little angry. They thought it was expensive, but they had to buy it.
As Tian Ergou and Tian Village Chief carried the grain seeds into the car, they sighed: "Village Chief, we don't know the local dialect, we will suffer a loss."
Tian Daniu nodded: "Grandpa, village chief, it's too bad that we can't speak the local language. We should always learn it in the future. By the way, my mother has a good idea. Even if you don't speak the local language, You won’t be bullied either.”
Chief Tian was very curious. He looked at Tian Daniu and asked, "What will your mother do?"
"My mother said that we are servants who went south with our master. We don't speak the local language. For the sake of the wealthy family, the locals dare not bully us openly." Tian Daniu replied that he learned from his mother and the aunt heard in the conversation.
Chief Tamura suddenly realized: "Yes, I will say so from now on."
Shen Yunxi smiled and said: "There is no other way. When we settle here, we must learn the local language. Well, uncle, look at that ox cart. I will buy some vegetable seeds and salt."
The people in the village asked her to carry things back. They bought everything they could.
