Chapter 236： shop

Latest website: There are no customers in the shop at the moment, only the attendants who come and go in a hurry. The shopkeeper heard that the maid came to report, and came out to receive it specially.

"Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Qiu, what wind is blowing the two of you together today, let's go to the private seat inside."

Pei Xiu said to the shopkeeper, "I've been here several times. The attendants in your store seem to be very busy every time they come."

"Yes, they are responsible for helping Xiu Niang, and they run errands back and forth for everything. Recently, I have been busier, and I can't wait to get off the field myself to rush to work."

"Is it because the plum banquet is going to be held?" Pei Xiu thought about the cold weather, and it was because of the plum banquet that their business was so good.

Otherwise, everyone in the cold weather will be at home, and the winter clothes that they wear at home can be sewn by their own embroiderers, and there is no need to specially entrust the embroidery workshop outside.

"Who said no, this time of year is the busiest time of year, and the delivery time of all the mansions is almost the same. Our embroiderers are working there day and night now. I heard that the prince has come back, so it's not too late to start the Plum Rewarding Banquet. Not much time."

Pei Xiu saw that the shopkeeper had been dealing with it all the time, talking about how busy she was and how hard Xiu Niang was working, and she didn't mention when the clothes she ordered would be ready.

She took the initiative to ask, "Then when will the clothes I ordered be delivered? The time I ordered is not short, the delivery date has already passed four days, and I am eager to get it. Try it on in advance, and if there is something inappropriate, you can change it as soon as possible, and the province will be in a hurry."

"I know, I'm really sorry. Mrs. Zhou, please give me a few more days. We will send someone to the house as soon as we are done." The shopkeeper then sincerely apologized and said his own difficulties.

"You have to be honest in doing business. You have promised the delivery time. How can you miss the appointment? If the banquet is held in two days, how can you make the appointment." Pei Xiu frowned. How many days are the grace days? But don't move her due date back again and again.

The shopkeeper apologized again and again, "I'm really sorry, we are also letting the embroidered lady work non-stop. So, you can give me two more days, and I will definitely send you the clothes in two days, okay? Please understand Mrs. Zhou as well. It's not easy to see the female workers in our store."

She sighed secretly, and it wasn't that she was deliberately trying to embarrass others. She had to keep the promise at the agreed time. She is also worried that if the clothes don't fit, there will be plenty of time to change them.

"Okay, then it will be delivered in two days. It can't be changed, and you can't be careless because you have to rush work. This will affect the reputation of your shop." She warned again worriedly.

"Madam, don't worry, we are definitely not like this. We will come with every dress as required, and we won't be careless. The officials in this city can't be fooled by me."

The shopkeeper was always smiling and accompany her throughout the whole process, and she was not impatient at all. With this service attitude, she also felt that she could trust it again.

"Okay, then we won't bother anymore, let's go first." The goal was achieved, and she didn't stay too much, she still wanted to go out for a walk.

"I'll take the two ladies out, ladies, please walk slowly." The shopkeeper took them out in person with attentive service.

When the two returned to the car, Mrs. Qiu said, "The time you booked is not too short. She must know that your family is a newly-established official. It is very simple to inquire about this in Dong'an City. Excuse me, you are a newcomer, so she delayed your delivery later and rushed other people's goods first. Fortunately, you didn't delay with her, otherwise she could deliver it to you in the last day or two."

Pei Xiu supported her forehead, "Okay, since I promised to deliver it in two days, then wait, I hope she will keep her word, or I will ask my husband to go out."

Mrs. Qiu burst into laughter, "Are you asking your husband to scare her, haha."

Pei Xiu was also happy, she just joked, "Stop laughing, where are we going now, I'm still waiting for you to show me."

"Go to South Street. There are a lot of powder shops there. My face is too dry recently. Let's go shopping to see if there are any good things."

Ding Bodering drove his car towards South Street. He was still very familiar with the street, and he didn't know any good things.

The two have been strolling from morning to afternoon, strolling through several bustling streets of Dong'an City, and then they returned with excitement on their faces.

It is a woman's nature to love shopping, and their revolutionary feelings are now firmly indestructible. The two of them are only seven years apart, and they have been in harmony with each other all day. They are both generous and unyielding people.

They saw that it was getting late and went home. As soon as the carriage returned to the gate of the Zhou Mansion, it happened to meet Zhou Cheng and Qiu Baize who had returned from the Shang Ya.

The two big men looked at the two who were carried out of the car with surprise.

Faces full of question marks, when did their daughter-in-law get along so well?

Qiu Baize asked his wife curiously, "Why are you here and where did you come from?"

She smiled and looked at her husband and said, "I was bored at home alone, so I stopped by, and then the two of them went out shopping together. Come and help me move things to our carriage."

Qiu Baize dismounted to help, and asked casually, "I'm in good spirits, what have you bought? Didn't you just get a batch of rewards yesterday?"

"No, I've been frightened at home for two months, for fear that the bride will become a widow. Now that I'm out of danger, I don't have to go out and relax."

Qiu Baize was speechless, touched his nose, moved things obediently, and stopped talking.

Pei Xiu snickered on the side, watching their interaction with love.

"Then we'll go back first. When sister Pei is free, remember to visit Qiu's house."

"Okay~ Watching one of the couple ride in a carriage and the other on horseback, she asked Zhou Cheng to help her bring in the things she bought.

They are all small things and gadgets. They are not worth much money. They are just fun and can be entertained by the girls. I also bought a few boxes of fat powder at the suggestion of Mrs. Qiu.

After returning to the house, Zhou Cheng also asked her, "Why did you guys go shopping together?"

"Are you surprised?" she asked in confusion.

"No, I'm just curious."

"I'm also quite surprised that Mrs. Qiu suddenly came to the door today. But after getting along for a day, I think she still has a good temperament towards me, and she can come and go often in the future."

"As long as you're happy, you don't have anyone you know in this city. Since you're here with her, you can keep in touch with her often, and it's good that there are many people you can talk to."

"Mmmm. That's what I thought too. I've been bored at home all day, and I don't know where to go when I go out."
