Chapter 189 The frugal Lu family
Bai Su went to a clothing store and bought six clothes for each of his family members, four ordinary clothes and two good ones.

She knew that with the high prices in the capital, her uncle and aunt would be reluctant to buy them.

However, usually one is worth two taels, and the good ones cost 20 taels.

Expensive indeed.

At that time, I can only lie to them for a few hundred words, otherwise I will make them feel bad.

When the shopkeeper saw that he had bought more than 600 taels, he enthusiastically asked the clerk to deliver the clothes to his door.

Lu family.

The waiter carried the suitcase and followed Bai Su into the house. He was dumbfounded when he saw the men and women in coarse linen clothes in the main room.

Immediately, I was filled with admiration.

This wealthy family is really low-key. Not only the lady is low-key, but the whole family is dressed in such a low-key style.

If he hadn't seen this lady buying more than 600 taels with his own eyes, he would have almost thought that this lady was a farmer from the countryside.

"Susu, why are there so many boxes here!" Lu Sanniang counted 39 boxes.

They are all in groups of three, each group has a bamboo woven box and two exquisite and luxurious wooden boxes.

"Clothes!" Bai Su distributed the boxes to everyone according to the marks he made before.

Lu Sanniang's eyes suddenly widened: "The clothes in this capital are not cheap!"

"Auntie, this box looks extremely expensive!" Miao Zhaodi said.

Bai Su smiled: "Auntie, this looks expensive. The price is about the same as in our town!"

The waiter on the side suddenly looked at Bai Su.

Prices in a town are almost the same as those in the capital?
You know, their clothes are not cheap in the capital!

What kind of town is this?

No wonder this family looks so simple but can be so arrogant.

"Really?" Lu Sanniang was doubtful.

Bai Su smiled.

Only then did the Lu family feel relieved and opened their suitcases. They were surprised and delighted to see the clothes inside.

"Susu, as expected, the workmanship in this capital is better than that in our town!" Lu Sanniang put her clothes on her body, and her eyes overflowed with love.

"Oh! This embroidery seems to be alive. I have never worn such beautiful clothes in my life!" Liu Cuihong touched the embroidery and couldn't put it down.

Lu Min'an glanced at the waiter and scolded Liu Cuihong softly: "Just look at the clothes and don't yell about it!"

But he didn't take away his hand touching the new robe for a long time.

Liu Cuihong looked at him and whispered: "You're not much better!"

But when he saw Wang Sulan sitting motionless, Qi Qi looked around Bai Su and felt resentful when she didn't see her preserved fruit jar.

"Why, Mrs. Wang, you don't even look down on the clothes in this capital now!" Bai Su smiled and came to Mrs. Wang with the suitcase.

Mrs. Wang turned her back silently.

"Here!"

Bai Su stretched out his hand towards the old lady and saw two pieces of dried apricots lying in his palm.

Mrs. Wang's eyes suddenly lit up, and she immediately said: "I like it. Grandma likes the clothes we bought Susu the most!" As she said this, she grabbed a handful of dried apricots.

"Where's mine!" Old Mrs. Qian said quietly beside her.

Bai Su also took out two pieces of dried apricots and gave them to her.

"That's pretty much it!" Mrs. Qian took the dried apricots and paired them with tea.

"Susu, how much are these clothes?" At this time, Lu Sanniang asked, holding a piece of clothes from the bamboo and rattan box.

"That's two taels!" the guy replied.

Bai Su: "!!"

"The one in the bamboo box is cheaper, and the one in the wooden box is a little more expensive, 20 taels a piece! The lady only spent a total of 660 taels, isn't it cheaper than the ones in the town!" The guy pointed at the wooden box enthusiastically. .

For a moment, the hall fell into silence.

Bai Su looked at the clerk resentfully.

Buddy: "???"

"The color of these clothes is really ugly!" Lu Sanniang hurriedly put the clothes back into the box respectfully.

"No, this embroidery will sting your hands if you touch it!" Liu Cuihong was so frightened that her hands holding the clothes trembled.

"These clothes~" Lu Guotai's face turned red and he said, "I don't like it!"

Everyone in the Lu family hurriedly put their clothes neatly and carefully back into the box.Guy: "!!!"

Wasn't he supposed to speak just now?
Therefore, this family may not be low-key, but just because - frugal?
"Auntie, uncle, if you really don't like it, then you have no choice but to throw it away. Once their shop is sold, it cannot be returned!" Bai Su looked at the clerk and blinked.

The guy who finally understood nodded repeatedly.

The Lu family reluctantly confirmed again and again, and when they learned that they really could not return, they all moved the suitcases back to the house with great care and distress.

Offer it~

Bai Su looked at it and couldn't help but smile.

Yangcheng.

Xiao Jingzhong dismounted with a dark face.

All the soldiers were frightened when they saw him. Some of them collapsed on the ground before they could kneel down.

This, how come Da Sima is here.

In the past, when they were fighting, even if they went deep into the enemy's territory, they didn't see the Great Sima coming. Now they just rescued the people and suppressed the bandits, so why did they alert the Great Sima?
Xiaohai and Xiaoshan were also dumbfounded when they came over.

"Da Sima, what are you doing here! Are you passing by?" Xiaoshan asked roughly.

Xiao Jingzhong stared at Xiaoshan and Xiaohai coldly: "Don't you know that I can come here?"

His most valued and proud nephew came to Yangcheng to suppress a bandit, and actually asked the emperor for permission to teach him in person!
How ridiculous.

Xiao Shan shook his head and said loudly: "I don't know how to count!"

"Xiaoshan, Xiaohai, lack of support, a hundred military sticks!" Xiao Jingzhong said coldly.

Xiaoshan was dumbfounded.

"What's the situation now?" Xiao Jingzhong looked at Xiao Hai.

"Back to Da Sima, most of the people in Yangcheng have settled down, and a small number are still searching. More than half of the bandits have been killed, and there are only two of them left on Yangshan Mountain. The young general has also led his troops. In the past two days, We can wipe them all out!" Xiao Hai answered truthfully.

In an instant, Xiao Jingzhong's face turned completely black.

At this moment, there is nothing unknown.

"Okay, okay, very good!" Xiao Jing was so angry that he laughed.

Xiaoshan waved away the soldier who was holding him, and said with a smile: "I just said that the little general is doing things. Even if the big Sima is relieved, why do you have to go there personally for such a trivial matter?"

Xiao Jingzhong looked at him: "Two hundred military sticks!"

Xiaoshan: "!!"

Xiao Hai: "!!"

Beijing.

Qinglong Street, Xiaozhai.

Old Mrs. Zhou was pacing back and forth in the courtyard. Seeing that the sun was about to set again, her eyebrows furrowed.

Liu Momo also stepped forward worriedly: "Miss, is there a fork in the road? After all, this is the first time for the young lady and the others to come to the capital."

Old Mrs. Zhou curled her lips and said: "Nowadays, we are all following the official road, what could possibly go wrong! This little peasant woman seems very shrewd on weekdays, but she can't even find the way to the capital. She is so stupid!"

Liu Momo said nothing.

"Take someone and look for him outside the city!" Old Mrs. Zhou said.

"Yes!" Liu Momo responded with a smile.

"Why are you laughing! I don't care about that vicious little peasant woman!" Old Mrs. Zhou said.

Liu Momo nodded calmly, but his smile became even thicker.

After Liu Momo left, Mrs. Zhou asked Butler Liu to prepare a carriage and go to the city to see it.

When Mrs. Shen saw Mrs. Zhou leaving, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and gave the brush to Xiao Danqing.

Xiao Danqing: "~~"

"Copy!" Shen pointed at the paper.

"Oh!" The tall Xiao Danqing responded obediently.

Mrs. Shen opened the door and left.

After waiting for the little village woman for so long, she finally had the opportunity to visit the master.

I wonder if the master will think that she does not understand etiquette.

But no matter what, it was her fault for not greeting the master immediately.

When the time comes, you must apologize to the master properly.
