"Little lady, I'm the only one in ningguta who has such a good book. You've got a good eye!" The more the shopkeeper said, the more satisfied he was, the more spiteful he was.
A Chou stared at the books and picked up one at will. There were words and pictures on the cover. It was funny. A Chou asked the shopkeeper, "how much is this book?"
"Little lady, if you are so knowledgeable, I'll take less of you," said the shopkeeper, comparing his index finger with that of ah Chou. "There are twelve copies in total, and only one money in total. How about that?"
"One silver?" Ah Chou immediately felt that the book in his hand had become a hot potato. "Twelve books, you asked me for a silver?! You're a real robber! "
"You can't say that, young lady. You can see how good the paper is and how well it's printed. It's not from a small workshop, and it's a good book that can't be bought easily." the shopkeeper stopped laughing at once, and at the same time, he had to put the book away, leaving a Chou at the same time. "If you don't know the goods, young lady, you know the goods There are many people! I will not sell it! "
"Don't be busy! I don't want to bargain with others when I buy something. "Ah Chou was in a hurry and had to rob the book in the shopkeeper's hand. He paused, then frowned and asked the shopkeeper," do men really like reading such books? "
"Little lady, take it back to your man. If he doesn't like it, I'll give you ten times the price!" The shopkeeper's face was full of self-confidence, and he laughed and lowered his voice. "Little lady, I want to say, if you buy this good book and go back, your men not only like this book, but also like you better!"
"Don't you Don't be careless! " Ah Chou blushed to death. Then he took the money bag and cooked a piece of silver to the shopkeeper. At the same time, he said fiercely, "if he doesn't like it, I will come back and give it back!"
"OK!" The shopkeeper's promise was straightforward. He put the pile of books into the big bamboo building of ah Chou, and said with emotion, "the little lady is very kind to her husband. She also came to buy books for him. There will be such good books in the store later. I can keep them for her! I'll give you a bargain next time! "
"Thank you then!" Ah Chou was so happy that he hurried out of the bookstore with a bamboo basket on his back. Then he went to buy a lot of vegetables, meat and rice noodles, and went to the cloth shop and pulled two feet of cloth back.

"In the early morning, what kind of mirror to look at, what kind of flower fragrance to comb an oil head, what kind of flower powder to wipe on the face, what kind of flower red is the rouge that the mouth points to. In the early morning, I got up to look in the mirror at the water chestnut. I combed the sweet scented osmanthus with oil head. I rubbed peach blossom powder on my face, and the rouge on my mouth was apricot blossom red... "
Ah Chou came back with a humming ditty. In the past, the stage in the palace was busy almost every day. Although she was just a rough maid, she had heard ditty from a distance. She couldn't understand Kunqu Opera and Yueju Opera, but she could understand these ditties and learned them well.
"What flower elder sister, what flower Lang, what flower's tent, what flower's bed, what flower's pillow bed, what flower's bed is covered with. The red flower elder sister, the green flower Lang, the dry branch plum's tent, the Ivory Flower's bed, the mandarin duck flower's pillow bed put on, the muxihua's mattress spreads the bed...... "
Zhong Mingwei listened to the crisp sound coming from the outside, from far to near, and then stopped outside the gate, followed by the sound of unlocking. Then the little girl's sweet, greasy and crisp voice went into the yard. Zhong Mingwei sat on the bed, leaning against the pile, and his fingers beat with the little song.
He didn't like to listen to plays or not. He didn't have that Kung Fu. He sat under the stage and listened to the people on the stage singing. He couldn't finish a song in less than an hour. He didn't have that time and patience, but now he was shaking his head and clapping with ah Chou's nonstandard singing.
