Chapter 44 Buying Jewelry

Hearing Melomei's words, Mei's second child had no choice but to continue sitting.

I hope the food is not too expensive.

Hearing Melomei's words, the village chief felt at ease, smiled heartily, and said, "This is the job of the old man, the little girl is too polite."

"Grandpa, the village head, don't shirk, this meal is what we should invite."

Melomei clapped her hands and said to the outside: "Brother Defu, can you serve the food?"

After Melomei finished speaking, the two shop assistants came in with trays, and after a while, more than ten dishes were served.

"I didn't order so many dishes, Brother Defu, did you make a mistake?"

Melomei looked at the dishes on a large table and felt surprised.

"No, no, the shopkeeper asked us to do it, saying it was thanks to Miss Mei."

Defu put down the last dish and took the tray, "Miss Mei, please take your time, I won't bother you."

Go out and close the door behind you.

"Three... three... Sanya, so many dishes, we, we..."

How much silver does this cost?

Mei Laoer looked at the dishes on the big table and was about to cry.

The village chief took a look and felt that there were too many dishes. He knew that Mei's second family didn't have much money.

"I brought the steamed buns with me when I went out, why don't we return these dishes and use the steamed buns to dip in some soup?"

As he said that, he took out two buns from his bosom, "I heard that the food here is very expensive, and it's all eaten by dignitaries, and we ordinary people can't afford it."

Looking at the honest village chief, Melomei was both funny and sad, so she could only say: "Grandpa village chief, please put away the buns, I just made a deal with the shopkeeper here, and I made some money. There is still money."

He took chopsticks for the two, scooped up rice from the basin and handed it to the two, saying: Dad, why have you been away for so long? "

"The yamen servant said that the master is busy, so let us wait for a while."

Wait for more than two hours?

"Little girl, all officials are like this, just get used to it, just get used to it."

The village chief picked up a chopstick and tasted the dish: "It's delicious."

He said again: "Second brother, we can't finish eating so many dishes, why don't we pack it up and give it to your daughter-in-law and the others to taste?"

Mei's second child also had this intention, and before Mei Luomei could react, he and the village chief had already taken oiled paper bags and wrapped all the vegetables without soup.

Melome "..."

"Let's eat!"

The village chief looked at the three big bowls of soup on the table, then sat down, and happily ate with Mei Laoer.

After eating, Melome went to the front desk to pay the bill.

Although Sun Changdun said that it was free to eat, Melomei still paid the money forcefully.

Everyone gets what they need, and try not to owe favors if they can.

"Father, our family just separated, and we need to buy a lot of things. I want to buy something to go back."

Walking to the street, Melo Mei grabbed Mei's second brother by the sleeve.

"You go, I won't go, I'll wait for you in the bullock cart." The village chief rubbed his stomach.

too full!Can't move.

"I have no money.

"Let's go dad."

Seeing that the village chief was not going, Melomei asked him to help carry the packed vegetables and newly bought clothes to the ox cart, and then took Mei's second child away.

Soon came to the grain and oil store, Melomei walked in a few steps.

"Shopkeeper, give me one hundred catties of rice, another fifty catties of flour, and twenty catties of oil."

She will eat white rice every meal in the future.

Although the system can buy food and the price is cheap, it is hard to explain, so we can only buy some outside, and it will be convenient to mix it up when the time comes.

"Little girl, are you sure you want to buy so many?"

The shopkeeper was asking about Mei Luomei, but his eyes were on Mei's second son who was following behind.

Melome: "Don't look at my father, I am the head of our family, and I can buy as much as I say."

Looking at Mei's second child, he smiled obediently, "Isn't it, Dad?"

Mei Laoer smiled foolishly, "My daughter has the final say."

Shopkeeper: "..."

Melomei ordered the things she needed, paid for them, and asked the shopkeeper to help deliver the things to the bullock cart before continuing to the next store.

Thinking that all the pots and pans in her house were broken, Melome bought dozens of bowls, more than a dozen plates, and dozens of small jars in one go, and then went to the blacksmith shop to buy a few pots, two kitchen knife.

When I came to a meat stall, I waved my little hand, "Boss, here are twenty catties of meat, five catties of pork ribs, and a pair of pigs."

"Sanya, buy less, if you don't store it properly, the weather is too hot, and it won't be long before it breaks."

Mei's second son has become numb to his daughter's purchasing power for a long time, but the meat is easy to spoil, so he asked her to buy less.

"Father, we are not the only ones to eat this meat when we buy it back. We will have to take the car of the village chief's grandfather's house later, so we need to give him some gifts? Aunt Wang used to give us food, but now that we have separated, we can make our own decisions. Do you need to give some gifts? And the patriarch..."

Melomei counted those who helped her family one by one.

"Okay, listen to you."

Mei Er Er thought about it, and it was indeed so.

The two cut the meat and went to buy some food.

"Sanya, it's time to go back."

Mei's second child has already carried a large basket, and this basket was also bought by Melomei.

"Okay dad, come back."

Melomei walked forward while answering, and suddenly saw a jewelry store.

"Father, let's go buy some jewelry for Mother and the others."

Melomei remembered that her mother's only silver hairpin was given to Zhang Meihua.

Mei's second child looked at his daughter, very moved.

Knowing that he didn't have much money on him, Melome just smiled and said, "Let's go, let's go and have a look first."

It was the first time to enter an ancient jewelry store, and Melomei was also very novel, so she lay on the counter with her feet on her feet and looked inside.

"What does the little girl want to buy?"

The shopkeeper found Merlot and walked over.

"Take out all the beautiful jewelry here and let me have a look. I want to buy some gifts for my family."

"Look at these, they are all new models in the county, they just arrived yesterday."

The shopkeeper brought several boxes and put them on the counter.

Mei Luomei looked at it, and then said to Mei's second son: "Father, come and choose one for mother."

Mei Lao Er came over, with trembling hands, finally took an unremarkable one, and stammered, "This, how much money is this?"

Here comes a poor man!
The corner of the shopkeeper's mouth twitched, and he said expressionlessly: "A penny."

So expensive!

Mei Lao Er hastily put down his things.

"Sanya, let's go."

"Father, I haven't bought it yet."

Mei Luomei didn't leave, and took a look at the silver hairpin that Mei's second son had chosen just now, "This hairpin is so thin."

The incense stick is so big, can it not be thinner?

Shopkeeper: "This is the cheapest silver hairpin in our shop."

Melome: "We don't want this, it's too ugly, take other things, bracelets, earrings, gold hairpins, hair flowers, etc., but they must be of good quality."

The store manager looked at the little girl for a few moments, hesitated to say something, and finally reluctantly went to the side, and brought some new jewelry over after a while.

Melomei took them out one by one and looked carefully, and finally chose a few pairs of silver earrings, a few silver bracelets, four silver hairpins, and some pearl flowers, hair flowers and other things.

Lin Lin always bought a small bag, and Mei Lao Er was taken aback when he saw it.
