Chapter 5： go to town

Pei Xiu was very happy to be able to go out. Although her head still hurts a little, it doesn't affect her good mood.

At this time, it is not yet time to eat breakfast. During the slack season, there are two meals a day, and the breakfast will be eaten later. Now everyone is either picking up firewood for the winter in the mountains, or washing clothes by the river, and some children in the village are running around.

The road was bumpy, Zhou Cheng tried to push it as smoothly as possible, but Pei Xiu was still hurt by her bump, and even her head was shaking badly. Tell Zhou Cheng to stop the cart, and she gets down and walks slowly.

It happened that there was an uphill in front of her, and when she came down to walk, he could push it more easily. When going downhill, Pei Xiu slipped and fell to the ground with her **** ''Ah...'' and slipped out several meters away.

Pei Xiu's face flushed with embarrassment, and her ears were all red. She actually fell so embarrassingly in front of a man she was still a stranger to.

Zhou Cheng hurriedly stopped the cart, stepped forward to help Pei Xiu up, looked at it and asked, ''Is it alright. Be careful, you'll be in town in no time. '' Zhou Cheng felt that Pei Xiu was a little strange. Except when they first got married, they lived together for a few years, and now they can hardly see Pei Xiu's blushing look. It's not that she never fell like this before, she just stood up, patted her butt, and continued walking as if nothing was wrong. Since I came back yesterday, I feel that Pei Xiu is different.

Pei Xiu looked at Zhou Cheng's scrutinizing eyes, but couldn't say anything, she could only respond awkwardly, ''Hmm. ’’ In the next section of the road, as long as it was going up and downhill, she looked down at the road with extreme caution.

On the way to the town, I will pass through several villages, and I will walk together when I meet others, and there will be someone to take care of me on the way. Generally, people who go to town are in a hurry to get a place to set up a stall. Few people like them go out so late. After all, it is not late. No one was encountered along the way.

Pei Xiu didn't have anything to tell Zhou Cheng. The two went silent all the way to the town, and Zhou Cheng asked Pei Xiu, ''Would you like to go sell game with me first, or go directly to the cloth farm. There are a total of two streets in the town, which are cross-shaped. Buzhuang turn right at the intersection ahead. ’’ Yuan Shen had never been to the town a few times in total, and if he needed anything, he would directly ask him to bring it back. He was afraid that Pei Xiu would not remember where the cloth village was, so he explained it again.

After Pei Xiu entered the city, her attention was diverted by the quaint streets. She kept looking around, but her eyes couldn't see enough. It was the first time to visit the ancient streets, and it was very strange to see everything. Hearing Zhou Cheng's question, he answered, ''I'll go to Buzhuang first, and come back to me after you sell out the game. ''

''Well, don't run around, wait for me at Buzhuang. '' Zhou Cheng pushed the scooter and walked towards the only restaurant in town.

Pei Xiu thought for a while. After all, she is not familiar with the place of life, so she should go to the cloth village first, buy the cloth and wait for Zhou Cheng to come over before going to buy other things together.

There are two cloth shops in the town, not far from each other, and Pei Xiu entered a small shop. Now this identity can't afford to wear good clothes. It's enough to have two new clothes. Pei Xiu doesn't want to continue to wear the original clothes, which are worn, old, and patched.

This shop looks small, but there are still quite a variety of fabrics and colors. Several customers in the store were choosing fabrics, and some people also had patches on their bodies. Pei Xiu was relieved to see that he would not be kicked out.

The proprietress saw an unfamiliar woman come in, and hurriedly greeted her with a smile. She didn't ignore her because Pei Xiu's clothes were patched.

Pei Xiu looked at this 30-something-year-old woman with a round face and a little fat. She said to the boss, ''The shopkeeper, do you have any cotton? I need ten catties of cotton. ’’ After all, we have to make cotton coats for a family of five, and we have to make two quilts. Remove the quilt at home, take out the cotton, wash it and play it again, it should be barely enough.

''Big sister, my cotton is 60 cents a pound. If you buy more, I will count you 58 cents. Do you need any more fabrics? '' Pei Xiu thought that fifty-eight essays was not far from memory. I went over and touched a few pieces of fabric, and put the navy blue, light green, dark purple, dark gray, white, and blue that came out to one side.

''The shopkeeper, how much is a foot of these pieces of cloth?''

The proprietress saw that Pei Xiu had picked so many, and smiled, UU reading enthusiastically said: ''The big girl is too discerning, these colors are the best in the store, these are cotton cloth , the colored one-foot-fifteen characters, and the white one-foot-twelve characters. I have opened a shop on this street for 20 years, and the price is the most reasonable. ''

Pei Xiu told the proprietress that navy blue, dark purple, and dark gray should be the same. A piece of cloth is four zhang, and one zhang is equal to ten feet. After all, she still wants to make a quilt cover, and she also wants to make another quilt cover. She has to take out all the cotton for washing the quilt and sew it again. At present, people only have quilt covers and no quilt covers, because they are reluctant to buy fabrics. Others tell the proprietress to cut to size.

The proprietress saw that Pei Xiu had bought so much, and she was happy. She said with an abacus, ''Sister, the cloth you bought was 2,600 wen, cotton 580 wen, a total of three taels and 180 wen. I still have a bag of rags in my warehouse, and I will send you another bag. ''

''Is there any defective fabric? Can you send a piece? ''

''Ok, there is a pink patch, the dyeing is uneven, I will cut two feet for you. ’’ The lady boss is also very straightforward.

Pei Xiu gave her the silver, and told her to wrap it in cloth and put it at the door with the cotton, until her husband would come to pick her up. She also stood at the door and waited, thinking in her heart that she would buy salt and seasoning, and also buy fat to squeeze oil.

At this time, a little beggar staggered past her and fell directly beside her, interrupting her train of thought. In modern times, there are too many people who touch porcelain, and Pei Xiu is hesitating whether to go forward.

Zhou Cheng pushed the empty scooter, and saw a little beggar lying in front of Pei Xiu from a distance, he accelerated and pushed over, ''Are they all here? ’’ As he spoke, he put the fabric and cotton on the scooter. Then take the little beggar into the car, ''Send him to a nearby hospital''.

''Hmm'' Pei Xiu didn't say much, just followed the car.
