Chapter 12

This road is a dirt road in the countryside. There are many ravines back and forth, and there are tall thorns beside it. If you walk carelessly, you can scratch your clothes. However, according to Liu, this is a shortcut. Lu Neng was half an hour faster, so she soon stopped complaining.

I came out very early, and the sun didn’t rise until I arrived in the town. Today is still the day of the market. There are many people coming and going at the west end of the town. Fungus mushrooms, wild fruits, pheasants and hares, hand-woven baskets, and sellers of hemp rope, wooden basins, pig troughs, seeds, vegetables, and many peddlers carrying goods, were attacked by the crowd. The girl's daughter-in-law's onlookers, Qingli also joined in the fun to take a look, they are all inferior rouge powder, tacky pearl flowers, not cheap, a small box of powder actually costs one hundred cash, that's one hundred eggs, eat it If you are not full, who has the spare money, why not grab it!But she is interested in embroidered handkerchiefs, purses, and nets. These are all expensive handicrafts in modern times. Li felt that it would take a day or two to embroider even those with quick hands, compared to this, it was really too cheap.

Bypassing the market, Qing Li followed Mrs. Liu to a quaint street. There were not many people passing by, but they were better dressed than those who went to the market just now. They were clean, without patches, and the road was much wider. There are many restaurants, small restaurants, grocery stores, medical clinics, embroidery shops, cloth shops, pawnshops, and pastry shops on both sides. Lanterns, colorful flags and the like are hung in front of them, and there are also their own promotional slogans on them.

Maybe it was a bit early, some restaurants had just opened their doors, and Qingli saw Xiao Er, who was yawning and rubbing his eyes, unloading the door panels.

"Mom, shall we go buy cloth?"

"Well, your father's clothes have been torn a lot, and it looks like they can't mend them. They just need to be made smaller so that Zixi can wear them."

Mrs. Liu led Qingli into an alley and turned into an alley. In an inconspicuous corner, there was indeed a family with the name "Wangjiabuzhuang".

Wangjiabuzhuang is located in a small alley, and its location is very inconspicuous. Mo Qingli can hardly imagine how Mrs. Liu found this place. It seems that this is definitely not the first time she has come here.

"The old three, come to buy cloth?"

Coming out from behind the wooden counter was a middle-aged woman who looked slightly older than her own mother, wearing a dark blue fine cotton dress with a few bright red peonies embroidered on the hem , combing the woman's hair in a bun, with a lot of hair oil on it, and a lot of powder on the face, red lips, oh my god, is this the ancient aesthetics and fashion trends?Qingli suddenly felt that she would not be in love anymore, thanks to her mother's Liu family's simplicity, otherwise this kind of dress every day would make people worry.

"That's right, come and buy a piece of coarse cloth for the children's father, eldest brother and third child." Mrs. Liu nodded and said, "These scholars are very particular, and the school in the town can't be too shabby, right?"

"That's the reason. Your family's old school is very good at asking questions. The former one even helped a restaurant rewrite the menu."

Mrs. Mudan said, and raised her thumbs up to Mrs. Liu, "It's a coincidence for you today, a batch of fabrics arrived yesterday, and they were soaked in rain, so they don't look good. The rest Half a piece is fine cotton cloth, 120 cash, and now it is the same price as coarse cloth.”

Mrs. Liu was a little hesitant. In fact, she still likes fine cotton cloth, but she can't help but wear it. Although the coarse cloth is of a lower grade, it is not easy to be washed, and it is not easy to be washed. If you save it, you can wear it for a year or two. If you buy it Fine cotton cloth, on the way back, when the thorns scratched the small road, it was a hole. It is not easy to mend, but it is also good. The leftovers can be used to make a small gown for Zixi. good.

Mo Qingli took advantage of Liu's tangled time to look carefully at Wang's Cloth House. Facing the wooden cabinet at the main entrance, there was an abacus on it. It seemed to be a place to pay the bills. Brown, gray, blue, and off-white are mostly colors, and there are more types of better muslin cloth, as well as floral cloth. She doesn't know much about high-grade silk, but it feels slippery to the touch. It must be very comfortable to wear a silk quilt.

"Then come here."

After all, Mrs. Liu couldn't bear to give up the good opportunity to buy fine cotton cloth at a low price. She thought that it would be the same when she saved money to buy coarse cloth. At that time, Mrs. Peony also sent a lot of rags, saying that they were not worth a few cents, and it would be good to take them back to make shoe soles.

"Mother, there are still a lot of good ingredients here."

Mo Qingli rummaged through the rags, most of them were red and slippery to the touch, they should be made of silk and satin, but they were too shattered, the biggest piece was half the size of a handkerchief, basically useless, and not for making silk flowers Yes, I used to read time travel novels and said that ancient rags can be used as dolls to make a fortune. She said that she was under a lot of pressure. I haven’t met a fool so far. I don’t know the IQ of the ancient working people, but it must not be underestimated. up.

Mo Qingli made a fuss about Mrs. Liu going back to the street for a stroll. She mainly saw the medical clinic and wanted to ask if the wild chrysanthemums would be accepted. Mrs. Liu was so troubled that she couldn't help it, so she agreed, and the mother and daughter went around a few times. Turning around, I found the nearest medical clinic, named it "Qing He Tang", and felt that the entrance was simple and grand, and there were still big gilded characters on the plaque. Mo Qingli gritted her teeth, money was important, so she had the cheek to ask, anyway, she is still a A seven-year-old girl.

"Where did the ugly girl come from, with no eyes? Blocking my way!"

In front of Mo Qingli was a fat man who was not much taller than her. She hadn't called him Carmen yet, but she dared to call her an ugly girl!If she is a beautiful young lady, she will bear it if she has a strange aunt's heart, but look at this one in front of her, her face is as round as the small wooden basin she washes her feet in, if you don't look carefully, you will definitely not find the eyes and nose, It's all covered under the thick fat, which is so inconspicuous. Of course, she has uncoordinated thick lips. Although she has scars on her face, at least her facial features are correct. It's true that she is called an ugly girl by such an ugly fat man. It is tolerable or unbearable!
"Borrowed, borrowed!"

"Ugly girl, if you don't quit, the young master's servant will come back later, let him beat you with a whip!"

Fat Dun'er blocked the door, resolutely not letting Mo Qingli in, and pointed at her nose with a finger that looked like a fat pig's trotter, cursing as well.

Meeting such a guy, Mo Qingli expressed that she was very unlucky. Should she beat him up or beat him up?It's a pity that the family has no money, so it would be bad to be blackmailed. Mo Qingli took a deep breath and decided to endure it today. If she had money, she would also invite a few evil slaves to drag this fat man to No one's corner beat me out.
