Chapter 24 The next market (1)
The two sisters walked into the tailor shop talking and laughing.

The shopkeeper saw that the two little girls who came in were thin and small, and there were only two words to describe their outfits, which were tattered and tattered.Fortunately, it was meal time and there were no other customers in the shop, otherwise they wouldn't have scared them out.

Thinking about it this way, he didn't even have the intention to look at Shen Qingyan and the two of them.

This kind of poor and shabby goods, from the looks of it, you know that you just look at it casually. After entering the store and looking at it, you must have no money to buy it.He simply hid in the counter and flipped through the ledger without even raising his eyelids.

Shen Qingyan glanced at the shopkeeper, and didn't care much about his attitude. This kind of people who judge people by their appearance and clothes have been the most indispensable since ancient times.

She glanced around. This ready-made clothing store is not big, only a dozen square meters, and the clothes hung on it are the coarse clothes that ordinary people wear when they go to work in the fields. There is no silk or satin, so she can't figure it out. Shopkeeper Where does this arrogance come from.

Considering that Song Cuiyun had just passed away, she couldn't choose brightly colored clothes, and there were not many colors of clothes in the store, so she simply chose two sets of blue and two sets of cyan thin quilted dresses, and now the weather has started to turn cold , The clothes they are wearing now are not warm enough at all.

"Du, dun, dun." Shen Qingyan knocked on the counter, pointed to the four sets of clothes and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, please take down these clothes, we want to buy them."

As soon as he heard that the business came, the shopkeeper's face immediately burst into smiles, and he quickly brought several sets of clothes to Shen Qingyan.

Shen Qingyan still didn't care much about his attitude. Some businessmen are like this, they like to look at people through the cracks of the door. If you get angry with people like them, you will be the only one who suffers, so she just asked calmly: "Have you tried here?" Is there a place for clothes?"

"Yes, yes, yes, girls follow me." The shopkeeper enthusiastically led the sisters to a back room, opened the door to let them in, and retreated to the front counter.

After a while, Shen Qingyan took Shen Qingxiang and the others out after trying on the clothes, and asked the shopkeeper to wrap them up and calculate the price.

After a while of calculations, the shopkeeper quoted a price. Shen Qingyan didn't know whether it was expensive or cheap. Anyway, she was not short of money now, and she didn't say much. She nodded lightly, and took out about three The scrap of money was handed to the shopkeeper, and she asked casually, "Shopkeeper, do you know where there is a shoe store?" She looked at the shoes on the three sisters' feet, either showing their toes or showing their heels, and felt uncomfortable.

"Girl, you are asking. The small shop sells cloth shoes. The uppers are strong and the soles are wear-resistant. There are clips and there are single ones. Look..." The shopkeeper immediately started to sell the shoes when Shen Qingyan asked about them.

"Take a few pairs and let us try them out. They have to fit your feet." After a pause, she added, "Just take the tight ones. The weather is getting colder and colder now."

"Okay, wait a minute." The shopkeeper took out a few pairs of shoes from under the counter. They were all cloth shoes with black sides and white soles. In fact, there is no choice. At this time, there are no styles of shoes. The main thing is to try the size and see if it fits.

"Okay, let's wrap up these two pairs of shoes too, how much is the total amount?" Shen Qingyan asked.

The shopkeeper saw that the two skinny girls bought so much at once, he couldn't see his eyes from laughing, and said that he had met a big customer, "Girl, I don't want more of these two pairs of shoes from you, They are all fifteen coins a pair, a total of 230 coins for you, you gave three silver coins earlier, I will give you some money."

The shopkeeper turned into the counter and took out seventy coins, handed it to Shen Qingyan, and enthusiastically sent the sisters Shen Qingyan out of the store, "Girls go away."

The two sisters walked a few steps after buying new clothes and shoes. Shen Qingyan suddenly remembered something and put the things in Shen Qingyu's feet for her to watch. Two black cloth strips came out, of course I asked the shopkeeper for them.

She thought of wearing mourning for the dead in modern times, isn't it all worn on the arm?They also wore it for the dead Song Cuiyun, it was a kind of commemoration after all.

Then the two sisters started shopping at the stalls on the street, and finally bought some condiments such as oil, salt and sugar, a set of bedding, a small pot, wooden basin, bowls and chopsticks, and other daily necessities.

Because she bought a lot of things, Shen Qingyan asked the hawker to help deliver them to Chengfuji. The hawker who was worried that she would not have the money to pay the bill felt relieved when she heard that they were delivered to Chengfuji.

Afterwards, Shen Qingyan took her younger sister to the grain store, bought ten catties of white flour and ten catties of rice, and then went to the butcher's stall to chop two large pieces of pork and a few big pig bones, and sent them to Chengfuji.

Lu Chengfu was surprised to see them buying so many things. This is not shopping, it's enough to resettle a new home.

When Liu Chunsheng and his wife came back from visiting their son, they were even more surprised when they saw these things. They were surprised as they let the waiters put the things into the bullock cart. They were rice noodles, meat, and new bedding. How much would it cost? what!
Song asked Shen Qingyan nervously, "Yan'er, where did you get so much money, these things cost two or three taels of silver anyway, the money you just sold bamboo shoots is not enough, it doesn't matter if we are poor, but Qian Don't do anything wrong!"

"This is the salary that Uncle Lu paid in advance, and I bought it at a store he knows well. It's much cheaper." Shen Qingyan said with a relaxed face.

"Is this the case for shopkeeper Lu?" Mrs. Song looked at Lu Anyang worriedly and asked.

Lu Chengfu was suffering in his heart and couldn't tell, but he still had to help lie on the surface. He had never seen so many cunning little girls. Didn't he just make her make a signature dish for his restaurant, and now he is dragged into the water? But he just couldn't refuse.

However, Lu Chengfu felt that he had done a good job. When Shen Qingyan and the others were about to leave, he asked his assistant Ah Fu to move two fat Chinese cabbages from the kitchen to the ox cart, and agreed that he would go to Yongfang Village next time. Take Shen Qingyan to the town.

The ox cart was full of things, but they all belonged to Shen Qingyan's family. As expected, Liu Chunsheng and his wife didn't buy anything.

Shen Qingyan hugged Shen Qingyu and sat in the back of the carriage with Song Shi, while Liu Chunsheng put a rope on the cow and drove in front.

After running for a short while, the ox cart came out of Panshui Town. The axles of the cart were jolting along the lonely yellow dirt road, with green hills stretching on both sides of the road.
