Dressed as a vicious stepmother, the whole family is full of wealth

Chapter 45, Buying Food for the Children
Being stared at by him, Xiao Qing felt a little timid, but in the workplace for so many years, she had never seen such a bully face, but she only remembered one thing, making money is their common goal, so she faced the shopkeeper After a half-smile in her eyes, she looked back at him calmly, smiled politely, and patiently waited for the money to arrive.

"Don't forget it!" Xiao Qing saw that the shop waiter was fiddling with the counter, which was a waste of time. She smiled and said, "It's 170 six taels of silver!"

This time the shopkeeper's smiling face suddenly disappeared, and he frowned and looked at the ordinary fat woman. Sure enough, fat people are all smart!
He laughed loudly: "Okay, okay, interesting, interesting!"

"Cheng Ming, give her 170 six taels of silver!"

The waiter in the shop pretended not to hear, and gave as much as they said, what if something was wrong?
He was still there doing the calculations, doing the calculations for a cup of tea, and the result was exactly as the woman said, 170 six taels of silver, not bad for one tael.

He looked at the chubby little woman in surprise, with joy on his face and admiration in his heart.

He belatedly took out two bank notes from under the counter, and gave the shopkeeper 16 taels of silver.

The shopkeeper took the banknotes and coins, and handed them to Xiao Qing himself: "Here, you count the coins and banknotes, oh, by the way, do you know the words on them?"

"Recognized a few numbers." Xiao Qing saw the words Circulation, One Hundred Taels, and the bank's seal on the bank note, and then accepted the bank note and silver: "The silver is just right, and those two gold beads are the shopkeeper. "

The more the shopkeeper looked at the little woman in front of him, the more he felt that this person was not simple. He felt that the price of these two gold beads was lowered, and this woman must still have good products.

He smiled and said: "My surname is Xu, and I say Wuxu, if there is any good thing handed down from my sister's family, just bring it to the Jinyufang, and the price Xu will definitely satisfy you."

Xiao Qing put the banknotes and silver in his pocket: "Well, don't worry, the shopkeeper, don't I still have four gold beads? When I run out of money on my body, I will definitely come to your shop to exchange the silver again."

"The shopkeeper, if I have nothing else to do, I'll leave first, and I won't disturb your business."

Xiao Qing nodded and smiled lightly before walking away.

Shopkeeper Xu made a gesture of invitation, and personally sent her to the door, watching her disappear into the crowd.

Cheng Ming came over and asked, "Shopkeeper, are these two gold beads too expensive? This one can sell for 100 taels, so we can earn some money."

Shopkeeper Xu still looked at the little woman's back, and sighed: "No, this fat woman must still have a lot of good things on her body, and there are things more valuable than gold beads. It doesn't matter if the gold beads earn less!"

Cheng Ming snorted coldly: "Just dress like her. I don't believe she has any valuable goods. Maybe they are gold beads picked up from somewhere and exchanged for money."

Shopkeeper Xu knew it in his own mind, and he held the two gold beads with a smile, and was going to go to the Hou's Mansion. Didn't the Hou Mansion ask him for a few gold bumps to clear up the relationship between them?He felt good about these two.

……

After Xiao Qing came out of Jinyufang, he held two bank notes in his pocket, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help laughing.

With this money, it will be much more convenient for her to do things later.

She didn't delay, and went to the place where she rented a donkey cart last time, rented a cart, and asked the driver to wait for her at the intersection half a mile away from Jinxiu Cloth Village in half an hour.

She wants to buy white flour buns for the children, candied fruit, honey-flavored candied haws, sweet-scented osmanthus cake, roast chicken, snowflake crisps, sugar figurines, etc. There are too many things to talk about, and she recited them last night It took a long time to memorize it. She likes to eat the same food. If it wasn't for her good memory, she would have forgotten it.

It took Xiao Qing half an hour to visit many stores, and finally bought all the things the children love to eat. She bought two and a half roast chickens, and half a cage of white bread. There were about 30 of them, honey flavored ones. I bought five skewers of candied haws, sweet-scented osmanthus cake, snowflake crisp jujube cake, rose mung bean cake, and crispy cake. I bought two catties each. It was nearly two or three taels of silver, but she didn't feel distressed at all. Thinking of them all hugging her and kissing last night, and arguing to sleep in the same bed with her at night, it was the first time that they were cute when they were not making trouble.

When I met these children on business trips or on the road, I only thought they were noisy, annoying, and blah. After getting along with the children of Old Qiao’s family, I realized that children are different. They are very obedient, sensible and cute. likable.

With food in her arms, she came to the intersection half a mile away from Jinxiu Cloth Village. At this time, the donkey cart had arrived. She put the things on the donkey cart and told the driver to wait a little longer. She told the driver how long it would take After paying some money, the coachman readily agreed.

After Xiao Qing put away the food, she walked to the alley next to Jinxiu Cloth Village. There was no one there all year round, so she called Xiaochao again.

Looking at the number of steps in her system, it has already reached 9000 to [-] steps. She excitedly found rice noodle oil, and she changed four buckets of rice and four buckets of noodles, which took her more than [-] steps.

She carried fifty catties of rice on her shoulders and dragged another fifty catties of noodles. She staggered out of the alley and came to the gate of Jinxiu Cloth Village.

As soon as she reached the door, she yelled loudly: "Shopkeeper Li, shopkeeper Li, come and help me!"

This time shopkeeper Li heard a familiar voice at the door and came out immediately.

As soon as he went out, he saw the fat woman carrying two big sacks of rice and noodles, and he smiled and hurriedly helped her into the shop.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, so much rice and noodles have been ground out, please come in, please come in!" Shopkeeper Li happily helped move in.

After Xiao Qing entered the door, he lay down on his counter panting: "I'm exhausted when I take a break."

Shopkeeper Li smiled and poured water for her into the back room, and handed it to her: "Drink your saliva, take a rest, after you rest, you can choose fabrics."

Xiao Qing took the water he handed over and drank it unceremoniously. Once she was raw and second time familiar, shopkeeper Li's attitude towards her changed a lot.

"Shopkeeper, I think the noodles this time are better than last time, you have to give me more money!"

Shopkeeper Li saw that she was dressed in clean fine linen, with a wooden hairpin holding her hair in a bun, lying on the counter, her appearance did not have the restraint of a woman, but she was free and easy, informal.

"How many are there this time?" Shopkeeper Li asked.

Xiao Qing smiled and waved two fingers: "It's twice as much as last time."

Shopkeeper Li made a gesture of invitation: "You choose the cloth, and the price will satisfy you."

Xiao Qing took a sip of water, as if she had regained her senses, she stood up and went to pick out the cloth. She chose two pieces of bronze-colored linen, and on top of the linen, she touched a piece of smooth fabric, and she couldn't move her hand anymore. opened.

"My God, this fabric feels so comfortable. What kind of fabric is it? It's soft and smooth. It must be very comfortable to make clothes from, right?" Xiao Qing asked as he touched the jacquard silk in his hand.

Shopkeeper Li grinned: "Don't think about this batch of cloth. Today's rice and noodles can only buy half of him!"
