Chapter 25
"Sanya, you can just buy two sets for a change of laundry, you don't need three sets, that muslin set is too expensive, shall we return it?"

Seeing that Melo-Mei wanted to buy three sets, Aya Mei immediately pulled her aside and persuaded her in a low voice.

"Sister, I earn my own money and spend it myself, so leave me alone."

She just likes cotton cloth. She has worn out the torn linen cloth for several years, and she has long since gotten tired of it. If the conditions did not allow it, she would still like to wear silk, soft smoke!
I used to read many novels describing that after time travel, the heroine has money and doesn’t want to buy a maid. She haha, it’s a fool who has money and doesn’t enjoy it!

"Hurry up and choose your own, and I'll choose two more for my second sister."

"Sanya, I..."

"Oh, let me choose for you. I'm wasting time. I still have a lot of things to buy."

Melomei pouted unhappily, and pointed to several sets of clothes hanging on the wall, "This set, this set, and these two sets, wrap them up for me."

"Okay, okay, I'll pack it right away."

The shopkeeper quickly stepped forward to take off the clothes that Melomei liked and wrapped them up, and asked, "Is there anything else you want to buy?"

"Are there any shoes for sale?"

She didn't find that there were shoes for sale here, she just asked symbolically.

"Yes, do you want to buy it for yourself or...?" The shopkeeper looked at Mei Daya.

Melomei thought for a while, "I have two pairs for myself, she has two pairs, and there is an older sister at home, let's also have two pairs!"

"Okay, but you may have to wait a while, I'm going to get it from my sister, you see?"

Yoho, there is also one-stop service for chain stores!
"go Go."

The shopkeeper was worried about the two of them, so he called the shopkeeper next door to help take care of the shop, measured the size, and then went to another street to get the shoes.

"Sanya, you will quickly spend all your money like this."

Mei Daya couldn't help it in the end, she was too ignorant to nag her sister while the shop owner was away!

"I know, but money is dead, and people are alive. After spending the money, you can earn it. It's hard to earn a wallet and not spend it." Like her!

The two waited while chatting, and after a while, the store manager came back panting, holding six pairs of shoes in his hands.

Melomei tried it, and it fit.

Melaleuca bottom, solid!
Although the color is still dark, there are at least two small flowers on it, which can be considered comforting!
"Shopkeeper, let's calculate how much it is."

"Okay, let me do the math. One set of muslin children's clothes, 380 cash, four sets of adult muslin, 420 six cash each, two linen clothes, 56 cash each, six pairs of shoes, 28 cash each, total yes……"

The shopkeeper flicked his fingers across the abacus, "Two two zero three sixty four."

She looked at Melomei and said with a smile: "The little girl buys a lot, and it's the first time she comes back to our store. I'll give you a discount. It's twenty or fifty."

The shopkeeper exchanged the change, "This is your money, count it."

Merlot "..." Two hundred and five?

Melomei counted and found that there was nothing wrong, so she threw the clothes and shoes into Aunt Mei's back, and left under the smiling eyes of the shopkeeper.

Putting on the new shoes, Melo Mei felt a little happier, and pulled Mei Daya all the way to buy, buy, buy...

How many flowers do you want to buy?Well, don't buy it, it's too eye-catching!Let's talk about the division.

Cakes, buy them, hide them at home and eat them secretly...

Fruit, candy, roast chicken, buy...

Oil and salt rice meat?Well, don't buy it.There is no place to cook, the target is big, and it is easy to be found!
After looking around, I finally found that there was nothing to buy except some cooked food that could be hidden.

We live under the same roof, and we dare not act rashly. It is better to hide and cover up first, otherwise the vest will not be able to cover it.

Mei Daya watched Melomei go shopping with great interest, she was indifferent from the beginning to the end, and when she didn't want to persuade her anymore, she found that her sister suddenly lacked interest.

"Sanya, what's wrong with you?"

"I want to separate, otherwise I won't dare to buy anything." Melomei felt aggrieved, "Sister, you can't feel the pain of me having money and not being able to spend it."

Aunt Mei "..."

"Oh, grandma won't agree." She also wants to separate the family!
"Forget it, let's not talk about this topic. Let's go to the bookstore and go home. Go back and see how many mushrooms the second sister collected today."

As soon as the topic of family separation came up, the two sisters felt depressed. Melomei cut off the topic directly and walked to the bookstore.

There is only one bookstore in the town, which is located next to the private school.

The bookstore is not luxurious, just a few tables and a dozen bookshelves in a big room.

"Shopkeeper, I want to buy "Thousand Character Classic", "Three Character Classic" and "Hundred Family Surnames". Is there any stock?"

As soon as Melomei entered the bookstore, her eyes flicked back and forth on the bookshelves.

The shopkeeper came over to look at the two of them, and replied: "Yes, this kind of enlightenment books are the best sellers, so we still have a lot of stock in our store."

Go to one of the bookshelves and take three books from it.

"Look, this is our new copy this month."

Melomei took the book and flipped through it a few times. She felt that the handwriting was neat but lacked inspiration, so she frowned gradually, "Is there any other handwriting that is better?"

For beginners, the handwriting is better.Don't be misled by the so-called influence of eyes and ears. When the time comes, it will be really unsightly to write a chicken character like her.

"Yes, wait a moment."

The shopkeeper took back the book just now and replaced it with three new ones.

Melomei opened it and looked at it. The handwriting was neat and vigorous, and she nodded with satisfaction.

"How much are these three books in total?"

"The little girl has a really good eye. These three books were all copied by Du Xiucai, and they are the best sellers in this store."

Melo May: "Just tell me how much it is."

"Oh, a total of one tael of silver and five hundred cash."

Books in ancient times were indeed expensive. A book has no annotations, and a few pages are worth hundreds of words. It is no wonder that scholars in this era are rare and expensive.

"Okay, I'll look at the others."

Melomei walked to the side and looked around again, and finally chose a travel book and a 'history' of this world.I chose two more writing brushes, a piece of not-so-good ink, an inkstone, and a few knives of rough white paper.

"Two taels of silver for travel notes, twenty taels of books from the Four Kingdoms series, two pig brushes forty liters, and one piece of lampblack ink..."

The shopkeeper calculated quickly, and in the end he just spent 28 taels of silver on Merlot.

"Sister, I'll hold it for you, it's a bit heavy."

After the shopkeeper wrapped the schoolbag, Melomei carried the book outside, and asked Mei Daya, who had been standing by the corner outside the door, to help carry it.

"Can you go back?"

Mei Daya put the bundle that Melomei handed over in her back, and then asked her sister.

She has become numb to Melomei's crazy behavior.

"Yeah, it's okay, let's go to the bullock cart, it's too late and we won't be able to catch up."

When the two hurried to the cattle cart management point, they were relieved to find that other people had just rushed over.

The two quickly climbed into the bullock cart and found a relatively spacious corner to sit.

The guy driving the cart waited for everyone to get on the cart, then he flicked his whip and shouted, and the bullock cart slowly headed towards Shuanghe Village.

When we got to the village, we saw a group of people running towards the river from afar.

"what's the situation?"

Mei Luomei and Mei Daya got out of the bullock cart, looking at the crowd running past their eyes, they were rarely puzzled.

Is someone throwing money up front?
"Big girl, what are you still doing here, go back quickly, your grandma is fighting with someone!"

Suddenly someone passed by, said this to the two people who were walking slowly on the side of the road, and then ran away in a hurry, "I won't talk to you for now, I'm going to watch the excitement."

The two sisters of Melome "..." stared wide-eyed.
