Yiyi's ancient life

Chapter 18
Leaving the grocery store, Yun Yiyi and Dashan temporarily put the things in their hands in the special storage place for others.Here, no matter how long it takes, as long as you take it away before the store closes at [-]:[-] on the same day (around [-]:[-] p.m.), it counts as a penny.

Then, the two entered a cloth shop together.

Yun Yiyi observed for a while, although the cloth shop named "Skillful Hands" was not the biggest on the street, but there was an endless stream of customers inside, presumably the things inside should not be bad, or else His family has the most guests?
With some inquiry and a hint of curiosity, the two walked in.As soon as he entered the door, a guy greeted him——

"Distinguished guest, I greet you two!" He said with a bow, and then said after getting up: "Guests, please choose as you like, the 'Skillful Hand' cloth shop has a complete range, high quality and low price, and you can also choose according to the cloth shop. Select the most popular styles from the album provided, and then the first-class tailors of the cloth shop will personally tailor the clothes for you, Bao Jun is satisfied!"

Yun Yiyi smiled and listened to the clerk's eloquent introduction, and she felt a little curious in her heart. What kind of boss can train such professional and enthusiastic sales talents? Stores in small places.

Judging from the dozen or so stores she visited just now, none of them are like this one. Not only are the shop assistants all eloquent, but even the various divisions of labor and collocation inside are also in order. For customers, there are those who are responsible for sales, those who are responsible for collecting money, those who are responsible for helping customers choose patterns, and of course there are tailors who are very gentle and amiable.

In the end, Yun Yiyi bought three pieces of cotton cloth under the recommendation of the staff, one light green and one light yellow to make outer shirts, and the other white one to cut some inner clothes.

These three fabrics cost a total of 180 Wen, and after paying the money, they were taken to the place where the patterns were selected.

The man handed her a book with various patterns of ancient costumes on it, Yun Yiyi flipped through it, and found that one or two styles looked pretty good.The guy next to him is also introducing one by one, which one is the most popular style among the ladies in the capital this year, and which one is the most popular style among the wealthy daughters of a certain place. In short, turn around and choose, Yun Yiyi's My head is dizzy.So he hurriedly called a stop, sent the buddy away, stretched out the album in front of Dashan, and said, "Brother Dashan, I can't pick enough, please help me choose two!"

Dashan didn't refuse either, he took the album and flipped through it a few times, and pointed out two styles, which were the styles that Yun Yiyi thought were pretty good at first, so he immediately decided on them.

Soon a tailor came over with a measuring ruler, measured her body, and agreed to come to pick up the clothes in three days, and then gave her an order, and she just came to pick up the clothes with this order in three days.

After paying another 150 Wen for making clothes, the two left the cloth shop.

The 330 Wen was paid by Yun Yiyi herself, and Dashan tried to help her pay several times, but she pushed her away.Dashan had no choice but to follow her when she saw her insistence.Anyway, this shop is his, and he will give orders later, just use better fabrics to make those clothes for her.

After finishing the clothes, I went to buy two pairs of cloth shoes and two pairs of foot bags.This foot bag is an ancient sock, made of cotton cloth. Although it is not as good-looking and comfortable as modern socks, it is better than nothing, and it is more comfortable than not wearing it at all.

After she bought the cloth shoes, she replaced the old and ill-fitting shoes on the spot, and then asked the shopkeeper to wrap them up, and return them to Sister Qiulian after washing them.But it is comfortable to put on shoes that fit my feet, and I no longer have to walk cautiously. I am afraid that the shoes will fall off, and I am afraid of being tripped...

In any case, Yun Yiyi now finally has her own clothes and shoes, and she bought them with the money she earned herself!

Seeing Yun Yiyi's dazed appearance, Da Shan was also in a particularly good mood.

Seeing her happy makes him feel better; seeing him ignore her makes her sad and depressed.This change is very subtle, and perhaps they themselves have not noticed it.

In fact, Yuelao's red thread has already been tied to the fingers of the two of them!
The things are almost bought, and the rest of the time is basically just wandering.

"Buns, hot buns~"

"Fresh cabbage~"

"Delicious big red dates~ Auntie, take a look, my red dates are sweet and delicious, would you like some?"

……

While walking, Yun Yiyi looked curiously at all kinds of stalls on both sides of the street, some selling steamed buns, some vegetables, some selling small snacks, and some selling trinkets, kitchen knives and farm tools. It can be said that there are many kinds , everything you need.Unexpectedly, the market in such a small place would be so lively. It seems that there are a lot of business opportunities in this city!
"Brother Dashan, is it so lively here every day?"

"No, market days and festivals will be more lively."

"Market day? When is it usually?"

"Every fifth day of every month is a market day, just like today is September [-]th, that's why the market is so lively today."

Yun Yiyi nodded and suddenly realized.She said, why are there so many people today? It seems that she is lucky!

"Hawthorn, big and red hawthorn~"

Suddenly, there was a sound of hawking from the front, Yun Yiyi's spirit was shaken, and she hurried forward, and she saw an old woman selling hawthorn to passers-by, and there was a basket of bright red hawthorn fruit in front of her.

"Ma'am, how do you sell this hawthorn?"

"Girl, I just picked this up early in the morning, but it's fresh, and it costs five cents a catty."

Yun Yiyi summed it up in her heart, there are about 20 hawthorn fruits in a catty, and it can make three bunches of candied haws, plus rock sugar for 32 cents a catty, while the previous 2.5 bunches used almost two catties of rock sugar, that's enough That is to say, the cost of a bunch of candied haws is about [-] Wen...

"Okay, ma'am, please help me weigh how many here are."

Hearing her words, the aunt seemed a little unbelievable, "Miss, are you talking about everything?"

Yun Yiyi nodded affirmatively, "Well, yes, all of them!"

It was probably the first time I met such a straightforward buyer. After weighing, the aunt also wiped off the change very simply. It was originally seven and a half catties, a total of 37.5 Wen, but the aunt only accepted 35 Wen.

At this time, Yun Yiyi suddenly thought of something and quietly asked if the hawthorn could still be picked on Dashan Changshou Mountain. After getting a negative answer, she turned her head and looked at the aunt.

"Ma'am, do you still have Hawthorn at home?"

"Does the girl still want more?"

"Yes, I want to accept, as much as I have, and it is calculated at 5 Wen per catty, but I must ensure that it is big and popular, and it is in good condition without bumps."

When the aunt heard it, she was convinced. In the back mountain of Lijia Village where she lived, there were many ripe hawthorn fruits on the mountain. The children in the village were too hungry to pick them. The things were sold at the market, so I went up the mountain to pick a basket of hawthorns, thinking that some city people might like to eat them, but I met Yun Yiyi.Not only did the girl buy all of them, but she also said that she would take as much as she had. If the deal was really done, then her little grandson would no longer have to be ridiculed for not being able to go to school.

"Well, ma'am, does your family live near here?"

"No, girl, my old family lives in Lijia Village."

Upon hearing this, Yun Yiyi glanced at Dashan, and after seeing him nodding, she said, "Then I will ask my cousin to go to Lijia Village to get it from you tomorrow afternoon."

"Hey, okay, okay, the girl's old body will go back first, and tomorrow at the beginning of Shen Shi (around [-] o'clock in the afternoon) the old body will be waiting for my brother to come over on time under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village."

After agreeing in this way, the aunt collected the money and left first.

Yun Yiyi was still worried that she might have misunderstood Dashan's meaning just now, so she hurriedly asked him for confirmation: "Brother Dashan, did I make a mistake just now? Is Lijiacun far from us?"

"Not far, about half an hour's walk.

"Ah! It's so far away, then..."

"It's okay, I often travel long distances, such a small distance is nothing."

Yun Yiyi felt better now, looking at the extra basket of hawthorns in the hands of the two, she suggested that they should not go shopping, and after getting Dashan's consent, the two walked to the storage place with their things.

When passing by a poultry shop, Yun Yiyi couldn't help but went in and bought ten little chickens before continuing to walk back.

When I returned to the storage point, I looked at the pile of things again. The ox cart in the village would definitely not be able to fit it, so Dashan rented another ox cart, and the two of them set foot on the cart full of things. way home.

　Thank you [Stars in the Sun] for your reward, and thank you for those who voted for recommendation, yay~
