Chapter 478_1

Lin Yue had been worried that she wouldn't be able to find all the spices she wanted, but to her surprise, the last store she visited had a complete selection. Deservedly, it was the largest and best spice shop in Xin'an City. After a lot of picking and choosing, Lin Yue ended up buying spices worth five hundred and thirty-six taels of silver. Because she bought in bulk, after some haggling, the shopkeeper rounded down, and she was charged an even five hundred taels of silver.

Zhao Erhu didn't know where his wife had gone and had no choice but to search street by street. Finally, he found her in the north of the city, by a shop's entrance where their family carriage was parked. Zhao Erhu's heart leapt with joy, and he hurried over. Approaching the building, he realized it was a spice shop. Recalling that his wife had mentioned Fragrant Soap before, he understood she had come here to buy spices.
