Whose little lady is so crazy?

Chapter 13 There is no such thing

"Tianshu, where is the sixth man?" Hong Xiaoduo asked the boss who obviously hadn't noticed the young man yet.

He is the one who does the daily head count. What's going on today?

"Ah? Kaiyang? Where is he? Was he still with me just now?" After Tianshu reacted, his claws were also numb.

The other children were also panicked and looked around.

"Mom, look, Kaiyang is over there." Tianxuan saw the person first and pointed forward.

Hong Xiaoduo looked in the direction of his finger and saw Kaiyang. At this time, he was following a man in a brocade robe and bowed repeatedly. He was too far away to hear what he was saying.

However, not only the other children could guess it, but even Hong Xiaoduo, who was new to begging, understood it in an instant.

When Kaiyang saw rich people, he would follow them to beg!
  "Mom, it looks like that person should give you something." Tianshu said softly.

Several other children also nodded in agreement.

The children's eyes were all bright. They looked at Hong Xiaoduo and then looked towards Kaiyang.

Hong Xiaoduo was in a mixed mood and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She didn't know what to say. The children's attitude was based on their past begging experience and was analyzed for her.

"Mom, Brother Kaiyang is so lucky. You should be able to get a piece of money." Yao Guang, who was on Hong Xiaoduo's back, said with a little bit of excitement.

These words made Hong Xiaoduo feel a little sad. They said they were lucky and might be able to get a copper coin.

Although she didn't know the skills of begging, Kaiyang in her sight had been following the man to bow to her for such a long way. If the man would give it to him, he would have to delay it!

Maybe they are deliberately holding back and enjoying the feeling of being begged for? Maybe, you don’t want to give it at all, and you will have to give it later when you can’t bear the trouble?
  No matter which situation, Hong Xiaoduo couldn't stand it anymore.

Not to mention that she has one hundred taels of silver on her now, that is one hundred taels of silver, and one thousand taels of silver.

Even though she was penniless now, she didn't want her children to beg in a humble manner anymore.

Seeing the slightly excited expressions of Tianshu and the others, Hong Xiaoduo gave up the idea of ​​asking him to call Kaiyang, and strode over there with his feet raised.

Tianshu and the others realized that their mother seemed unhappy, and quickly followed her.

"Master, please do me a favor and give me some. I will make a fortune from my kindness." Kaiyang prayed while bowing.

Why suddenly couldn't walk at the critical moment? Kaiyang felt like he was leaving the ground. He turned around anxiously and saw the person holding his collar - mother!

The mother's expression was wrong, she was very serious. Kaiyang didn't dare to say anything and looked at Tianshu and the others who were following them. What did that mean?

Tianshu shook his head secretly, signaling him not to talk nonsense.

Looking at Kaiyang who looked uneasy, Hong Xiaoduo couldn't bear to reprimand him. He gently put the person on the ground, told him to follow him and stop running around, turned around and left.

Tianshu and the others hurriedly followed. Kaiyang looked back with regret and looked at the person he had followed for most of the day. He could no longer see him. Hey, he was just a little bit away from that person and he would have given it to him!

Hong Xiaoduo stopped in front of a clothing store. When the waiter at the door saw it, he immediately used a broom to chase Tianshu and the others away: "Where are you beggars? Go away, go away."

"Kuan, don't be rude." The shopkeeper heard the voice and came out, scolding the waiter.

Hong Xiaoduo originally wanted to switch to another company, because the waiter's attitude towards the children just now made her feel that if the waiter had a bad heart, then the boss was not a good person either.

But when he saw the face of the middle-aged shopkeeper, he changed his mind and stood still.

"The guy who just came here yesterday is ignorant, please don't blame me." The shopkeeper said to Hong Xiaoduo apologetically.

Seeing that Hong Xiaoduo didn't say anything, the shopkeeper said again: "Madam, please look inside and see if there is anything you want. Our shop has a complete range of ready-made clothes, as well as shoes and socks."

"They are with me, can they come in?" Hong Xiaoduo asked deliberately.

The meaning is obvious, if she can get in, she will get in, if not, she will leave.

Anyway, if the shopkeeper says that she can come in and the children are best left outside, then no matter how good his clothes are and how cheap they are, she won't buy them.

"Since we are with the young lady, we can certainly come in, please." The shopkeeper responded without thinking.

That's about it, Hong Xiaoduo walked into the shop.

There were no customers in the shop at this time. There was a woman who was sorting things on the clothes rack. She looked back. Although she was a little surprised, there was no look of disgust on her face.

The customer was a woman. When she entered the shop, the woman came forward to greet her: "I wonder what the young lady wants to buy? We have all kinds of materials at home."

Tianshu and the others came in, but they consciously crowded together and tried to stay away from the hanging clothes.

"Buy a full-body one, one for each of us. Can I ask my aunt to help them choose? The one with medium fabric will be fine." Hong Xiaoduo was very satisfied with the woman's attitude and said to her with a smile.　　　　One for everyone? Oops, it's a big business. The woman quickly called, "Master, please come and help me choose."

The guy who was being scolded earlier was always at the door, and he was dissatisfied.

I was kind-hearted and was thinking about the business of the shop, but I was scolded by the shopkeeper.

Now I heard that this young lady actually wanted to buy clothes for seven little beggars. Although she was very surprised, she still subconsciously entered the shop and wanted to help.

"Just don't come in, we don't need you here." But the shopkeeper kicked him out.

I was really afraid that he would be impatient next time, or make inappropriate expressions or eyes, which would annoy this little lady.

"Mom? Are you buying us new clothes too?" Tianquan looked at the shopkeeper who was taking his measurements, turned around and asked in a low voice.

"Well, of course, if you don't want to wear new clothes, you don't have to." Hong Xiaoduo said with a deliberately straight face.

"Mom, Yao Guang wants to wear new clothes." The little one, who had just been untied and stood on the ground, rushed to say it for fear that any of her brothers and sisters would be too sensible to say no.

After saying that, he looked at his brothers and sisters staring at him and realized that he might be wrong. He immediately lowered his head: "Mom, you can also ask the shopkeeper if there are any used clothes for sale, they should be cheaper, right?"

"Pfft, little girl, our house only sells new clothes. If you don't wear clean clothes, it will be difficult for your mother to take you into any shop." The shopkeeper heard the little beggar calling Hong Xiao Duo Niang was very surprised, but after all, she has been in business for many years and has experienced a lot. She suppressed her inner curiosity and completed the business first.

"Or you can choose the color and style yourself." After Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking, he started to look at what she was wearing at her age.

When the little ones heard that they could choose, they all looked at Tianshu.

"Please help us choose, as long as the color is not too light." Tianshu looked like he was an older brother. They always look for sizes from old clothes donated by kind people, but they have never worn new clothes, let alone entered a shop to choose them. How can they choose? Won't! I don’t understand either!

As for the height of the children, the shopkeeper and his wife actually knew what size to wear without using a ruler, and quickly selected them for them. Also wear underwear, stockings and shoes underneath.

They also wrapped them separately in cotton cloth and let them hold them by themselves.

Everyone's body is dirty and they definitely can't be put on like this.

"Little madam, but there is nothing in my house that you like?" The woman was busy with her children, but when she realized that Hong Xiaoduo hadn't made a choice yet, she stepped forward and asked.

"Auntie, you have also seen that I am walking outside. It is definitely inconvenient to wear a skirt, but I haven't seen anything similar to mine." Hong Xiaoduo said very directly.

The woman laughed when she heard this: "Yes, yes. Madam, come and take a look, but is it this style?" She led Hong Xiaoduo to the corner and asked.

Hong Xiaoduo reached out and took it over to take a look. Needless to say, it was really what he wanted.

Made of cotton and silk with dark flowers, a snow-green top with a cross-collar collar, and loose neem-colored bloomers at the bottom. When I measured it against myself, I found that the size and length were about the same.

"Auntie, this is it." Hong Xiaoduo was very satisfied. It would be much easier to choose shoes, socks and underwear.

Looking back at the little guys, each one had a big bulging cloth bag in his hand, and each of them pursed their small mouths, looking like they wanted to smile but dared not.

Hong Xiaoduo asked the shopkeeper to settle the bill, and she had no intention of bargaining with them. Through the previous contact, she could already confirm that this couple was not that kind of profiteer.

The shopkeeper took the abacus and made a few clicks. He raised his head and told her: "Little madam, it's only thirty-two or eight yuan. If I buy so much, can I charge my little lady three-two-eight yuan?"

"Okay, thank you so much, shopkeeper." Hong Xiaoduo responded.

I also calculated in my mind, one large and seven small, from top to bottom, inside and out, only cost three to six dollars, which is too cheap. And, it’s not the cheapest material.

One tael of silver can be exchanged for ten coins, and one coin is worth one hundred copper coins.

The shopkeeper gave me a discount of two cents, which is equivalent to a discount of two hundred copper coins. I have asked Tianshu in the past two days and the price of a meat bun is two cents. In other words, the shopkeeper of the clothing store gave her a total discount of 200 yuan, which means that the children can eat a hundred meat buns.

Hey, think about it, just now on the street, I bowed to you for so long, just for a penny!
  "Auntie, which inn in town is better? I mean attitude, after all, we are here." After paying the money and putting away the loose silver, Hong Xiaoduo remembered to ask.

"The shopkeepers of the three inns in the town are all pretty good. However, my dear, you can stay there, but I'm afraid they can't." The shopkeeper told them.

Hong Xiaoduo was startled: "Why?"

"Little lady, you must have a road guide when you go out, but they probably don't have one, right? The inn has to register with the innkeeper, and the government also checks it from time to time." The shopkeeper added.

He said in his heart that it was because he was young after all, so he probably didn’t take this into consideration!

Road guide? Hong Xiaoduo was a little dumbfounded. He vaguely remembered that road guides seemed to be the passports of ancient people. In some places, you had to go to the local yamen to get such a thing ten miles away from home.

I don’t seem to have found that thing on me. The seven little ones were not needed originally, but now they must not be there at all. What should I do...
