Chapter 219： Shopping

Chapter 219 Shopping

Wang Zhuangzhi hurriedly waved his hands and said, "His mother, I have clothes to wear, so I don't need to buy any more."

Liu Zhihua disapproved after hearing this. The head of the house is now a shopkeeper anyway, and there will be more people to deal with in the future. It is always right to have more decent clothes for two.

"Okay, listen to me today, go in and have a look."

After finishing speaking, Liu Zhihua took her younger sister Xiuhua and walked towards the clothes shop first.

Wang Zhuangzhi smiled helplessly, and hurriedly led the children to follow.

clothes shop,

Liu Zhihua brought her younger sister into the door and was looking around at the ready-made clothes when she suddenly saw a familiar figure in front of her.

Not far away, a woman in a **** skirt was asking the shopkeeper for the price, "How much is this set of clothes?"

The shopkeeper said: "Two taels of silver."

The woman held up the ready-made clothes to look at them, and said, "Your clothes have been here for a long time, and you can see that the sleeves are dirty, so sell them to me for one, two or five dollars."

"Madam, how can you negotiate the price like this? My clothes, which were originally 4 taels, are only sold for 2 taels because they have been dusted for a long time. You don't sell them at this price."

The shopkeeper's face was a bit ugly, and he noticed Liu Zhihua and his party walking in, so he came over to greet them.

"What do the two ladies want to choose?"

"Shopkeeper, do you have brocade robes suitable for young men?" Xiuhua asked gently.

The shopkeeper nodded and said: "Yes, let me see."

Xiuhua took her sister and walked over, and the place the shopkeeper said happened to be next to the woman.

The woman in **** yellow clothes looked back casually, she was taken aback when she saw Liu Zhihua, and then looked up and down in disbelief, the shock in her eyes was obvious.

This Liu Zhihua, why is she dressed like this.

Liu Zhihua was taken aback when she saw her, she thought her back was familiar just now, but she didn't expect it to be Wei Qing's mother.

Although she has a good relationship with Aunt Liu's family, she doesn't have much contact with Wei Qing's mother. She is the daughter of a teacher's family, and she rarely talks to her, a country woman.

But it was Wei Qing's mother after all, Liu Zhihua took the lead and smiled at her, and said, "Wei Qingniang, we are really destined today, didn't Wei Qing come with me?"

Wei Qingniang's name is Qiuhe, and she was born to Xiaojiabiyu.

Qiu He had just reacted from the changes in the family. Hearing Liu Zhihua's last question, she replied with an unnatural expression: "Wei Qing is resting in the inn, and I'm going out for a walk alone."

Erya at the back also recognized Aunt Qiuhe, and came over with a smiling face to say hello, "Hello, Auntie."

Qiu He nodded indiscriminately, "Okay." Then she said to them, "I still have something to do at home, so take a walk, I have to go first."

After finishing speaking, she left the clothes shop straight away.

Erya saw Aunt Qiuhe in such a hurry, scratched her head, and muttered, "Auntie doesn't want to talk to us, does it?"

Wang Zhuangzhi had a good impression of the Liu family. He touched Erya's head with a smile and said, "Perhaps your aunt is in a hurry."

Liu Zhihua couldn't guess the reason, shook her head and sighed: "Wei Qing probably has a guilty conscience because she didn't take the exam."

Wang Zhuangzhi felt it was a pity when he heard it, and said to his wife in a low voice: "This is the end of the matter, let's not ask too much about their family affairs, it is useless to talk too much, and don't let the two families form a knot."

Liu Zhihua nodded regretfully.

"Sister, which of these two colors do you think Cheng'er should wear?"

Xiuhua chose two sets of clothes under the introduction of the shopkeeper, and Yilan and Yimo did not look bad on Chenger, but she encountered a difficulty for a while.

Liu Zhihua walked over with a smile, and also showed Cheng'er two sets of clothes, and said, "Cheng'er looks handsome and has fair skin. These two colors match well, so I bought them for you."

Xiuhua heard about it, raised her hand and took the clothes from her sister, and said with a smile, "Sister, how can I let you buy it? Don't I have silver taels in my hand? Buy more for your brothers-in-law and children."

Mu Cheng said sensiblely: "Auntie, I have quite a lot of clothes at home, and besides, there are student uniforms given out by the school. I bought the clothes and put them away. I won't be able to wear them when I grow up next year. It's too wasteful."

Liu Zhihua felt reasonable after hearing it, so instead of fighting to buy it with Xiuhua, she walked to the shoe cabinet to look at it, and said with a smile: "Auntie didn't give you anything, I'll show you two pairs of shoes."

Xiuhua looked helpless and understood her sister's character, so she didn't say anything more, and handed the blue brocade robe in her hand to the shopkeeper, "Then keep this set."

"Good lady." The shopkeeper had a smile on his face. This group of people looked like ordinary people, but they bought clothes for four or five taels so happily. He liked this kind of cheerful people.

Liu Zhihua chose two pairs of shoes for Mu Cheng, one pair of thin ones to wear now, and the other pair of thick ones to wear later.

Then she chose clothes and shoes for the head of the family and the children, as well as underwear and socks. Finally, Erya secretly bought two small padded pockets. The ten-year-old baby has begun to develop, and it is not comfortable to wear underwear , I can still protect my stomach when I buy such a small thing.

The whole family bought a total of sixty-eight taels of odds and ends. The shopkeeper was so excited that he offered two bolts of pure cotton cloth as gifts.

Two bolts of cotton cloth are only nine hundred taels in total, which is nothing compared to sixty-eight taels.

The others took the initiative to present it, and Liu Zhihua was happy to see it, and paid the money happily, and with the help of the shopkeeper, they loaded everything into the carriage.

The whole family walked forward again. When they passed Shunhe Restaurant, shopkeeper Tian saw Wang Zhuangzhi driving the carriage with keen eyes, and shouted: "Brother Zhuangzhi, long time no see, come in and have a seat."

Wang Zhuangzhi didn't plan to go in at first, but he didn't expect the shopkeeper to call him when he saw it, so he stopped the carriage and said hello to the lady and the others, then walked over quickly to say hello.

"Shopkeeper Tian, ​​how's the business going?"

Hearing this, the shopkeeper's smiling eyes were bent, he nodded and leaned over and said in a low voice: "Thanks to Brother Zhuangzhi, the restaurant's business is booming day by day, our boss will pack you a big red envelope."

As he spoke, the shopkeeper walked to the wine tank, and found an envelope sealed in red paper from a wooden box behind the wine tank.

He came over with a smile and handed it to Wang Zhuangzhi, explaining: "The owner wanted to give it to you the day before yesterday, but it wasn't you who came that day, so I will keep it for you for the time being. I happened to meet you today, so you put it away."

Wang Zhuangzhi looked at the heavy red envelope in his hand, and felt that his boss was a very good man, not to mention that the fish was expensive, and the five thousand taels back then was already benevolent, and now he was embarrassed to accept the red envelope.

"Treasurer Tian, ​​your boss is kind, but I'm not the kind of greedy person. You should pay it back for me."

As Wang Zhuangzhi said, he was about to hand back the red envelope, but shopkeeper Tian hurriedly raised his hand to stop him, "No, no, this is what the boss specially ordered for you. If you don't accept it, the boss will think that you think it's too small or something, so you must return it." Blame it on me for not being able to do things well, Brother Zhuang Zhi, please leave it to yourself."
