Chapter 82

After Ye Xusheng finished selling the eggs, he packed up and prepared to go shopping, only then did he realize that He Xiner was staring at him in a daze, and whispered, "What's wrong?"

How do you say this?Are you afraid that old Qian's hands will tear her up and she won't be able to make gestures?Shaking his head means it's okay.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Ye Xusheng said with his back on his back, "Let's go shopping."

Pork is fifteen yuan a catty, salt is ten yuan a catty, oil is five cents a catty and two catties are bought, and the money for selling eggs is only five cents left.Ye Xusheng put the five cents in his schoolbag.

"It's still early, let's go around the town," Ye Xusheng said.

He Xiner was naturally willing. Looking at the direction of the sun, it was around ten o'clock, and she was not in a hurry to go back.

After leaving the market, we went to the main street where the shops are concentrated. Ye Xusheng said as he walked, "Our Pingning Town is a small town. This is the main street. It's called Chaoyang Street. The big shops are concentrated at the east end of the street."

Chaoyang Street sounds really nice.

Walking to the door of a cloth shop, Ye Xusheng said, "Let's go in and have a look."

He Xiner grabbed his sleeve and pointed to his schoolbag. She could see clearly that there were only five copper coins in it.

Even if he has a little private money for copying books, he won't have much money. It costs money to ride a bullock cart and eat chaos.

Ye Xusheng understood in seconds, and dragged He Xiner a few cloths away, a little further away from the cloth village.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 lying to you, I learned how to dig traps with Zhang Liehu from our village, and got some wild animals. Uncle Zhang helped me sell them, and I saved them up several times. A few hundred texts."

After that two rabbits, I got three pheasants and four rabbits.Every time Zhang Liehu gave him money, he only took one hundred wen, and he saved three hundred wen for the rest to buy wine for Uncle Zhang.

So he had been waiting for Xiu Mu for a long time, thinking about buying some things for He Xiner.

Looking at the surprised He Xiner, she couldn't help but smile: "Tell Big Brother what you want, and Big Brother will buy it for you."

After speaking, he dragged her into the cloth village.

There is only one proprietress in this cloth shop, who is in her 30s. When she sees people coming in, she greets people warmly: "My little brother, what do you want to buy? We have all kinds of fabrics here. Let me know which one you like, and I will take it down."

She is a proprietress who knows how to do business, and she doesn't dislike the clothes of the two of them at all.

Ye Xusheng was better, his long gown was about seven or eight new, with a high bun on his head and a square scarf wrapped around his head, he looked like a scholar.Look at He Xiner's clothes, although there are no patches, but the burlap skirt is washed white, and there is not even a silk flower on her hair, she looks like a child from a poor family.

Seeing that the two of them were young, they probably didn’t understand fabrics, so the proprietress took the initiative to say: “The better fabrics include high-quality silk, the comfortable fabrics include fine cotton, the cheap ones include coarse cotton, and coarse linen and fine linen.” , we also have ready-made clothes at home."

He Xiner's eyes lit up when she heard the fine cotton. The clothes here are the underwear that she is most unaccustomed to. She wants to make a set of close-fitting underwear, but fine cotton is the best. It is sweat-absorbent, breathable and soft.

As for the clothes outside, He Xiner didn't care, besides, in order to avoid family battles, new clothes should be avoided.

After hearing what the proprietress said, Ye Xusheng said: "Is there any ready-to-wear for my sister?"

"Of course there are. What price do you want? Good materials cost a tael, medium priced sets cost five hundred coins, fine linen sets cost eighty coins, and even fine linen sets cost fifty coins."

Ye Xusheng was surprised, it was so expensive, he was a little embarrassed.

People who do business are all smart people, so how can there be anything they don't understand?
The smile on the proprietress's face was still shining brightly: "My little brother, have you never been to the cloth shop, so you don't know the market? Most people make cloth by themselves, and the mother-in-law at home can make a new dress. Just one day."

Pointing to a few bolts of cloth again: "These few bolts of fine linen are all good, and they are comfortable to wear on the body. For a set of clothes, forty renminbi is enough."

Ye Xusheng asked He Xiner: "It's better to make two first, and I'll buy them for you when my brother has more money."

He Xiner shook her head, pointed to the muslin cloth, and gestured with the proprietress not to be too big.

Only then did the proprietress notice that the little girl hadn't spoken when she entered the door. Could it be that she was dumb?

The proprietress was quite kind-hearted. Looking at the little girl with delicate features, she sighed in her heart: She is such a poor child. She looks so good but is dumb. I am afraid it will be difficult to find a husband.
