Chapter 189 Chapter 189: Buying Cloth (4000 words)
After visiting several cloth shops one after another, both Shen Qingcheng and Wang Li felt that the prices were a bit expensive.

"Sister-in-law, let's go to that shop and have a look."

Wang Lishi looked in the direction of Shen Qingcheng's finger, and found that the shop Shen Qingcheng mentioned sold both ready-made clothes and fabrics.

"Qingcheng, that shop sells both ready-made clothes and fabrics, will the price be more expensive?"

Wang Lishi looked away and shook her head at Shen Qingcheng.

Shen Qingcheng smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, let's go in and take a look first, and if the price is too expensive, we just don't buy it."

"OK then."

Several men were waiting outside the shop, and Shen Qingcheng and Wang Lishi entered the shop with their children.

The shop is small, with a few ready-made garments hanging on one side and a display cabinet with fabrics of various colors on the other side.

The shop was run by a woman, who was sitting at the door doing needlework because there were no customers.

Seeing Shen Qingcheng and Wang Lishi walking in with their children, the woman quickly put down her sewing and got up to greet her with a smile.

"You two look at the clothes, or the fabric."

Wang Lishi glanced at the display cabinet and said in two voices, "Look at the fabric."

"Then please follow me here."

The woman led Shen Qingcheng and Wang Lishi to the display cabinet.

Shen Qingcheng glanced at the display cabinet, and before reaching out to touch the fabric, she could see that the fabric on the display cabinet was a little rough, all made of cotton, and the texture was not delicate.

"Qingcheng, the fabric here is a bit rough."

A layman like Shen Qingcheng can see a thing or two, and an insider like Wang Lishi who often does needlework can see it more clearly.

Afraid of being heard by the woman, Wang Li lowered her voice and whispered in Shen Qingcheng's ear.

Shen Qingcheng also answered her in a low voice.

"Sister-in-law, this fabric looks thick, suitable for people who work like us."

Wang Lishi reached out and touched a piece of cloth on the shelf, then looked away and nodded to Shen Qingcheng.

"That's true, why don't you ask the boss about the price?"

The woman heard all the conversation between the two.

The woman was not angry, and explained with a kind smile: "This is the cloth I spun by myself. The feel may not be as good as that of others, but I use enough thread and weave it tightly. These cloths are absolutely durable."

People who do farm work in the country don't pay attention to good looks, and durable cloth is the best for them.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang and Li didn't feel disgusted anymore, and asked directly: "Sister, how much does a piece of cloth in your family sell? How much is it?"

The woman said: "A piece of five hundred wen is three feet long. How about I unroll a roll and measure it with a ruler for you to see."

With the help of Shen Qingcheng and Wang Lishi, the woman measured a piece of red cotton cloth with a ruler, which was three feet.

After Shen Qingcheng and Wang Lishi rolled up the cloth, the woman said: "How much do you want to buy? If you buy more, I can give you a little discount."

Shen Qingcheng was an amateur at making clothes, so she couldn't estimate how much cloth would be needed, so she turned her head and asked Mrs. Wang Li: "Sister-in-law, how many clothes can be made with such a piece of cloth?"

Wang Li said: "Like my family, such a piece of cloth can make two adults and one child. Brother Jun is taller, and your family may only be able to make two adults."

The Chinese New Year is approaching, and Shen Qingcheng plans to be alone. After listening to Wang Lishi's words, she knows it in her heart.

Uncle Liang and Big Brother Jun can use one piece of cloth, and she and Luo'er can use one piece of cloth and still have some left over to make shoes.

"I want two."

Shen Qingcheng picked a navy blue one for Mo Liang Jun Wulan, and a bright red one for herself and Jun Yiluo, although it is not suitable for men to wear shoes made of bright red fabric , but there is no way but to make do with it.

Mrs. Wang and Li also planned to buy two horses. Wang Tiezhu had to prepare two horses when he lived in the school, and the couple had to get new ones for the New Year.

At this time, four bolts of cloth were sold, and the woman was very happy.

"It's time to open the business now, and you two have bought so much. I'll give you twenty cash for a piece of cloth, what do you think?"

Shen Qingcheng and Wang Lishi compared this price with those of the previous ones, and felt that it was a good deal, so they readily paid the woman.

When she was about to leave the cloth shop, Shen Qingcheng accidentally saw some rags of different sizes piled up on the display cabinet. An idea came to her mind, so she took a few more glances at those rags.

"Boss, what are your rags for?"

The woman followed Shen Qingcheng's gaze and figured out that Shen Qingcheng was asking about those discarded cloth heads.

"It's some rags cut from making clothes and shoes. It's useless. It's piled up somewhere and ready to be burned later."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingcheng hurriedly said: "Boss, can you sell these rags to me?"

Wang Lishi saw that the shape of those cloth heads was not regular at all, such cloth heads were too small for children's diapers, fearing that Shen Qingcheng would regret buying them, so she quickly turned her eyes back and winked at Shen Qingcheng.

Shen Qingcheng smiled at her, and gave her a reassuring look.

Seeing that Shen Qingcheng was not joking, the woman thought for a while and replied: "Little lady, if you really want these cloth heads, I will charge you ten cents for this pile."

"to make."

Shen Qingcheng didn't even pay back the price, took out ten copper coins and handed them to the woman.

The woman took the copper plate and said with a smile: "Little lady, just wait, I'll get you a linen sack to help you pack all these rags."

"thank you boss."

After leaving the cloth shop and getting into the carriage, Mrs. Wang Li couldn't hold back anymore, and asked Shen Qingcheng urgently: "Qingcheng, what are you doing with these rags? , save some more, and buy a better yard in the future to move out of Dahuang Village with Brother Jun, so as not to be bullied by the Shen family again."

Shen Qingcheng heartily accepted Wang Lishi's kindness.

Shen Qingcheng smiled gratefully and said: "Sister-in-law, I am willing to spend money to buy these cloths, of course they have uses. The small ones can be made into layered bottoms with paste, and the big ones can be made into puppets."

"Puppet, what is a puppet?"

Seeing Wang Li's expression, Shen Qingcheng knew that there were no puppets for sale in Xiliang County. She went to a few big fairs in Xiliang Town, but she didn't see any vendors selling puppets. Today, she was shopping in Xiliang County I haven't seen it for so long.

"Sister-in-law, I'm going to your house tonight. Let's make a puppet together. Then you'll know what a puppet is. I'm not good at needlework. I'm in charge of drawing the puppet. You are in charge of making it. We cooperate. What do you think of the money earned from selling the puppet, we will split it in half?"

Hearing that there is still money to be made, Mrs. Wang and Li suddenly became energetic.

"Successful, but it's half a split, Qingcheng, will you lose money? After all, you bought these cloth heads, and you came up with the idea."

Shen Qingcheng said: "It cost me ten cents to buy these cloth heads. I won't lose money. Sister-in-law, your craftsmanship is the most valuable."

As for ideas, Shen Qingcheng shouldn't have too many ideas in his mind.

That's it.

Because cotton is needed to make cotton-padded clothes and shoes, the two women invited them to a cotton shop and bought the cotton after a few bargains.

Seeing that it was almost noon, while driving the car, Jun Wulan turned his face to the three majors and two minors in the carriage: "It's almost noon, you are all hungry, let's go to a noodle stall to eat something before we continue shopping."

"Luo'er, Tie Zhu, are you hungry?"

Shen Qingcheng responded to Jun Wulan and asked the two little guys beside him.

Wang Tiezhu thought that the food in the city must be very expensive. It is not easy for his parents to support him in private school, so it doesn't matter if he is hungry once in a while.

"I'm not hungry, Aunt Qingcheng, just take Xiaoluo to eat."

"Brother Tie Zhu, it must have been your stomach that was growling just now."

As soon as Wang Tiezhu finished telling the lie, the lie was exposed by Jun Yiluo.

Wang Tiezhu's fair face turned red from embarrassment.

"You must have heard wrong."

Shen Qingcheng was amused by these two little guys, and when Jun Wulan found a place to stop the carriage, she simply held one with one hand.

"Aunt Qingcheng is treating you today, and I'll take you to eat delicious food."

When Shen Qingcheng took the two children out of the car, she didn't forget to look back at Wang Lishi and Mo Liang.

"Uncle Liang, sister-in-law, hurry up and follow."

Wang Lishi said: "I eat a lot in the morning, I'm not very hungry, you just go and eat."

"Boss, seven bowls of Yangchun noodles, can you cook two bowls of small ones?"

After getting out of the car, there was a noodle shop. Shen Qingcheng took the two children and went straight in to order food.

The boss saw her holding two young children and nodded.

"I can cook two small bowls for you, but the big one costs twelve cents a bowl, and the small one costs eight cents a bowl."

Shen Qingcheng thought it was not worth it.

"The ones that are all boiled in large bowls, and two of them are filled with fried eggs, how much is a fried egg?"

"Three pennies a piece."

After ordering the meal and asking about the price, Shen Qingcheng said to Wang Lishi: "Sister-in-law, the noodles have already been ordered, and they can't be refunded. Come and eat quickly, or the noodles will fall off."

Wang Lishi had no choice but to pull Wang Fugen into the noodle restaurant with a sad face and sit down.

Wang Fugen smiled honestly.

"Brother Jun, Sister Qingcheng, I've made you spend money."

The noodle shop provided free tea, and Jun Wulan poured a cup for each of Wang Fugen and his wife, then filled it up for himself, and raised the teacup to bow to Wang Fugen and his wife.

"Brother Fugen, sister-in-law, thanks to the help of the two of you during this period, Qingcheng and I can have the present day."

During this period of time, if Wang Fugen and his wife hadn't lent the carriage out of righteousness, how could Qingcheng and himself have gone to Xiliang Town to set up a stall to sell cakes so smoothly.

"I would like to use tea instead of wine to thank you two for your kindness."

Jun Wulan's sudden thank you so solemnly scared Wang Fugen and his wife.

Wang Fugen didn't know what to say, seeing Jun Wulan raised his head and drank the tea in one gulp, he followed suit in a daze.

Wang Lishi looked at Shen Qingcheng for help.

Shen Qingcheng knew that Jun Wulan's seriousness had frightened the couple, so she quickly tugged on Jun Wulan's sleeve to signal Jun Wulan to sit down.

Seeing Jun Wulan sit down, Wang Fugen and his wife breathed a sigh of relief.

The noodle stall owner put the noodles on the table, and Shen Qingcheng handed them to the Wang family first.

"Brother Fugen, sister-in-law, what Brother Jun said just now is also what I thought in my heart. Since Brother Jun has already said it, then I will not say it. From now on, our husband and wife will regard the two of us as brothers and sisters-in-law."

Wang Fugen took a sip of the noodles and said: "Brother Jun, Qingcheng, Lan Qing and I have already treated you two as brothers and sisters, so stop talking about these things when we see each other in the future, whoever dares to make things difficult for you two, I was the first to say no."

"Isn't it the Shen family who will embarrass Brother Jun and Qingcheng in our Dahuang Village?"

Wang Lishi directly put down his chopsticks and slapped the table angrily, and then said to Shen Qingcheng with righteous indignation: "Brother Jun, Qingcheng, in the future, the Shen family will come to your door to find you bad luck, please inform us and my wife, there are five members of the Shen family including Shen Jiajun Man, our two families add up to seven, are we still afraid that his Shen family will fail?"

"Mother, the Shen family is not looking for Aunt Qingcheng's trouble now, don't be so excited, once you pat the table, the soup in the noodle bowl will spill out."

Wang Tiezhu's words immediately defeated Wang Li's achievements.

Wang Lishi looked at his son and said angrily: "My mother will send you to a private school to study, so you will learn to talk to my mother."

"Mom, you are not old at all."

Wang Tiezhu answered Wang Lishi solemnly, and now even Shen Qingcheng couldn't help laughing.

"Sister-in-law, I think Tie Zhu has a good temper, stable and interesting."

After having lunch at the noodle shop, the group walked around the street for more than half an hour, buying some things for the New Year.

After strolling around in the afternoon, Shen Qingcheng saw that the excitement on the faces of the two children was gone, and they still looked a little tired, so she asked Wang Lishi: "Sister-in-law, I think Luo'er and Tie Zhu are a little tired, what else do you have?" If you don’t have any, let’s go to Wanhe Restaurant and go back.”

"Don't buy it, I have already spent a lot of money today."

Wang Lishi looked at the rolls of cloth piled up in the carriage, feeling happy but also feeling sorry for the money spent today.

After receiving Wang Li's words, Shen Qingcheng raised the curtain and said to Jun Wulan's back, "Brother Jun, let's go to Wanhe Restaurant now."

"it is good."

Jun Wulan agreed and drove the carriage towards Wanhe Restaurant.

After about half a cup of tea, the group arrived at Wanhe Restaurant.

Jun Yiluo had already fallen asleep in Shen Qingcheng's arms, and Shen Qingcheng gently put her in Mo Liang's arms, and picked up the three pieces of soap prepared for Lian Yunyi.

"Uncle Liang, sister-in-law, I'll come back as soon as I go."

"Hey, isn't this Miss Shen? It's not your day to go to work. What kind of wind brought you here?"

When Shen Qingcheng stepped into the threshold of Wanhe Restaurant, she heard Qin Yuehong, the shopkeeper, speak in a strange voice.

"Did Shopkeeper Qin feel the frosty wind blowing today?"

Shen Qingcheng didn't pay much attention to Qin Yuehong, and looked around in the lobby looking for Su San's figure.

"Miss Shen, you are here."

Shen Qingcheng stood in the lobby for a while and saw Su San coming down from the second floor carrying a teapot, and seeing Shen Qingcheng standing beside the counter, Su San walked up to Shen Qingcheng with a happy face.

Shen Qingcheng saw that there was sweat on his forehead, and asked with concern in his eyes: "Are you busy today?"

When Shen Qingcheng was at work, Su San was helping out in the small back kitchen. On days when Shen Qingcheng was not at work, Su San was still running out of the hall. Because Su San returned to Shen Qingcheng, shopkeeper Qin arranged more work for him than before. many.
