After Ye Xusheng finished selling the eggs, he packed up and prepared to go shopping. Only then did he realize that He Xiner was looking at him in a daze and whispered: "What's wrong?"
How do you say this? Is she afraid that Old Qian will tear her apart and she won’t be able to perform any gestures? She shook her head and said it was okay.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Ye Xusheng carried the basket on his back and said, "Let's go shopping."
Pork cost fifteen cents per catty, salt ten cents per catty, and oil five cents per catty. After buying two catties, the money from selling eggs was only five cents. Ye Xusheng put the five cents in his schoolbag.
"It's still early, let's go to town for a walk," Ye Xusheng said.
He Xiner was naturally willing to look at the direction of the sun. It was around ten o'clock and was not in a hurry to go back.
After leaving the market and going to the main street where the shops are concentrated, Ye Xusheng said as he walked: "Our Pingning Town is a small town, and the main street is this, called Chaoyang Street. The big shops are concentrated at the east end of the street."
Chaoyang Street sounds pretty good.
Walking to the door of a clothing store, Ye Xusheng said: "Let's go in and take a look."
He Xiner grabbed his sleeve and pointed at his schoolbag. She could see clearly that there were only five copper coins in it.
Even if he had some private money from copying books, it wouldn't be much. Riding in an ox cart and eating Chaos all cost money.
Ye Xusheng understood instantly, and pulled He Xiner away a few pieces of cloth, away from the cloth shop. He whispered: "I forgot to tell you, I have money, you don't have to worry."
Seeing that He Xiner still looked at him without moving, she was a little helpless, "I'm not going to lie to you, I followed Zhang Orion in our village and learned how to dig traps underground, and got some wild animals. Uncle Zhang helped me sell them, and I saved up after going back and forth several times.
Several hundred words."
After that two rabbits, he got three more pheasants and four rabbits. Every time Zhang Orion gave him money, he only took one hundred coins, and the rest he bought for Uncle Zhang to drink, and he actually saved three hundred coins.
arts.
So he had been waiting for Xiu Mu for a long time, thinking about buying something for He Xiner.
Looking at the surprised He Xiner, she couldn't help but smile: "Just tell me what you want, and I will buy it for you."
After saying that, he took her into the cloth shop.
There is only one proprietress in this cloth shop, who is in her thirties. When people come in, she greets them enthusiastically: "Brother, Miss, what do you want to buy? We have a complete range of fabrics here. Let me know which one you like and I will get it."
She is a boss lady who knows how to do business, and she does not dislike their outfits at all.
Ye Xusheng is better. He is wearing a 70% to 80% new gown, with his hair in a high bun and a square scarf. He looks like a scholar. Looking at He Xiner, although there are no patches on her clothes, her burlap skirt has been washed white, and her hair is
There wasn't even a silk flower, and he looked like a child from a poor family.
Seeing that the two of them were young and didn't understand fabrics, the landlady took the initiative and said: "The better materials include fine silk and satin, the comfortable fabrics include fine cotton, the affordable ones include coarse cotton, and the coarse and fine linen."
, we also have ready-made clothes.”
When He Xiner heard the word "fine cotton", He Xiner's eyes lit up. The thing she was not used to most about the clothes here was underwear. She wanted to make a pair of close-fitting underwear, but fine cotton was not the best. It was sweat-absorbent, breathable and soft.
As for the outer clothes, He Xiner didn't care. Besides, in order to avoid family war, new clothes were omitted.
After hearing what the landlady said, Ye Xusheng said, "Do you have any ready-made clothes for my sister?"
"Of course there are. What price range do you want? Good materials cost one tael a set, medium-priced ones cost five hundred cents a set, fine linen costs eighty cents a set, and there are also fifty cents a set."
Ye Xusheng was surprised that it was so expensive, and he felt a little embarrassed.
Those who do business are all human beings, how can there be anything that is not fair?
The smile on the landlady's face still hung on her face: "Have you never been to the cloth shop, so you don't know the market? Most people make their own fabrics, and the mother-in-law at home is a prostitute and can make a piece.
New clothes will be ready in one day.”
Then he pointed to a few pieces of cloth: "These pieces of fine linen are all good and comfortable to wear. Forty coins are enough to make a set of clothes."
Ye Xusheng asked He Xiner: "How about I make two pieces first? I will buy them for you when I have more money."
He Xiner shook her head, pointed at the fine cotton cloth, and pulled the boss's wife to make sure it wasn't too big.
Only then did the landlady notice that the little girl had not spoken since she came in. Could it be that she was mute?
The landlady's heart was quite kind. Looking at the little girl with delicate features, she sighed in her heart: What a poor child. She looks so good but is mute. I'm afraid it will be difficult to find a husband. This chapter has been completed!
