Chapter 10 Shopping Crazy
Shi Yan immediately bowed his hands respectfully and saluted Shopkeeper Lin. This was an inherent etiquette for scholars. Shopkeeper Lin returned the salute and continued writing.
Sign, fingerprint, and make two copies. This agreement will be considered effective.
Shopkeeper Lin sent them to the door and expressed that he was looking forward to the early opening of their fruit and vegetable garden. He also hoped to bring more exotic fruits to the next meeting.
There was no room for seventy-two taels of silver in Shi Yan's purse, so he held it tightly in his arms, very vigilant.
"Shi Yan, it's nothing at first, but if you cover it up like this, it will let others know that you have money, hahaha."
Shi Yan immediately let go and laughed heartily. Sang Cheng came to Ping'an Town again, and his mood was completely different. He was abandoned here begging for food before, but now he could go shopping with his wife and husband.
Song Tingran saw a ready-made clothing store and walked in. The owner of the store seemed to be over forty years old, but his charm was still there. She took a look at the clothes of the three of them, frowned impatiently, and did not say hello.
Song Tingran didn't like her, so he had all the money in the world that he couldn't spend, so he said loudly: "Go to the clothing store opposite."
The charming boss didn't even raise his eyes and continued to take care of the fabrics with a sneer.
The sign of the ready-made clothing store opposite is relatively simple, it says Huamei Clothing Store, but the name has a modern charm of the 1980s and 1990s.
"Come in and take a look. They are all newly arrived designs and colors, high quality and low price."
The shop owner is only around thirty, and he runs the shop with his two husbands. The three of them look harmonious and harmonious.
This magnetic field is just right. Song Tingran looked at the dazzling array of clothes and was very happy and said: "You two should pick the ones you like, and give them five more to look at according to your taste."
The shop owner didn't understand what was going on for a while, but he didn't ask directly for fear that the customer would be unhappy.
"These cloth shoes look very sturdy."
Song Tingran held it in his hand and looked at it, and the store owner immediately introduced it: "Good vision, this is something you can wear even if you work in the fields. Although it has a coarse cloth upper, the quality is definitely above the standard."
These are the shoes Song Tingran wants. They are both comfortable and sturdy. He said, "Then buy sixteen pairs. First get two pairs according to my shoe size, and ask him for the rest of the shoe sizes."
Song Tingran pointed at Sang Cheng. He was really attentive. Because he picked it up and did everything very carefully, he probably knew everything.
"These shoes cost twenty cents a pair. If you want to bring more, you can just pay the price of fifteen pairs, and the other pair will be given to you."
Song Tingran quickly thanked her. She understood that if someone opens the door to do business, she must be careful when encountering such a customer.
The shopkeeper saw that although Song Tingran and his family were dressed in shabby clothes, the two husbands were both good-looking and upright. Song Tingran himself also had a solid temperament. He must not be looking for trouble, so he felt relieved and asked her husband to take care of her. Yan and Sang Cheng, in order to avoid suspicion.
Living in the village, there is really no need to wear silk or satin, the main thing is to be comfortable, so Song Tingran chose two cotton outfits according to his vision, one in cyan and one in purple, which were very elegant and chic.
"Except for my two clothes, this, this, and this, all are covered."
Song Tingran picked out ready-made clothes for all seven husbands, and even took Sang Cheng to see if the sizes were suitable.
"My wife, your cotton clothes are not cheap. We still have them, so we can just make do with them."
Sang Cheng didn't dare to choose anymore. When he asked about the shoe size just now, he was frightened.
Shi Yan also said that ready-made clothes are too expensive. The two stood side by side. Song Tingran looked at them as if they were looking at a big grievance.
In the end, I had no choice but to wear cotton clothes. Then I bought four pieces of linen and cut the clothes at home. I could save a lot of money. The boss saw that they bought too much, so he gave them another piece of linen and enough needlework. .
The shoes cost a total of 300 yuan, the nine sets of cotton ready-made clothes cost 2,700 yuan, and the linen clothes cost 320 yuan. In total, I spent three taels of silver and 320 yuan in this beautiful clothing store.
It was not a small amount of money. When the three people carried out the things in large and small packages, they were so eye-catching that the boss opposite was so angry that he jumped up and down, shook the fan in his hand, and entered the door.
The Huamei Clothing Store was relatively close to where the bullock cart and the others were. The three of them put all their things on the bullock cart. The wife of the Zhao family was surprised, but she kept a calm face and said, "Get in the cart, hold on and sit firmly. ."
"I'm sorry, I still have some things to buy. If someone comes to deliver something later, please ask the wife of the Zhao family to put it away and help look after it."
"Ah."
The wife of the Zhao family sat back on the bullock cart.
Song Tingran also took the time to buy along the busiest street. When passing by the bookstore, she walked in.
"Shi Yan, let's see which one you like. You are going to be a husband in the future, so the things shouldn't be too shabby."
"My wife, the one I used before is very good. There is no need to buy a new one."
Song Tingran ignored him and directly took charge. A set of pens, inks, paper and inkstones cost two taels of silver, and they were all of high quality.
Shi Yan kept refusing, and finally was glared at by Song Tingran pretending to be angry, and he didn't dare to speak anymore. So when he was choosing books again, he was afraid that his wife would buy expensive ones again, so he just picked two books.
Song Tingran asked the waiter from the bookstore to help deliver it to the oxcart in the town. He told the driver that it belonged to the Song family. The waiter said it was no problem, packed it up and left in a hurry.
After that, I bought some farm tools needed for farming. The kitchen utensils in the kitchen were either missing corners or in tatters, so I simply bought a batch.
I bought a number of various vegetable seeds, six chicks, six ducklings, and I also bought fifty kilograms each of polished rice and noodles this time, so I don’t have to buy them all. They can be preserved as long as they are placed in a cool place. long time.
"Tell me, what else is missing at home?"
Song Tingran stood on the street and thought hard. The sun had set and the sky was starting to get dark.
"Master Wife, there is really nothing missing at home."
Shi Yan spent the entire afternoon taking out money, as if he was dreaming.
Song Tingran snapped her fingers. By the way, there were not enough benches at home, and there were no wardrobes, so she went directly to the furniture store nearest her.
The boss was about to close the door when Song Tingran stopped him and said, "Boss, be anxious."
When the boss saw that he was really anxious, he asked them to go in and take a look, saying that there were both ready-made and customized ones.
"Boss, can your bed be made into a bunk bed?"
The boss was stunned. He had been making furniture for so many years, but he had never heard of bunk beds. Song Tingran felt that if one person had a bed, it would not fit in the house. Instead of being squeezed together, it would be better to make bunk beds with separate beds. Space.
