Lu Xiaoxiao and her second sister visited several stalls but didn't see anything they wanted to buy, so she asked her second sister, "Second sister, do you have anything you want to buy?"
"Yes, I want to buy some homespun cloth to make two sets of work clothes for my parents. The clothes they are wearing now have been washed and washed, and they can tear a big hole with just a little use."
After hearing what her second sister said, Lu Xiaoxiao recalled where she saw the stall selling homespun cloth. Then she said to her second sister, "Second sister, I know where the stall selling homespun cloth is. I will take you there."
"good."
When Lu Xiaoxiao took her second sister to the stall selling homespun cloth, she saw that no one was buying cloth at the stall, so she asked her second sister to choose fabrics quickly, otherwise she would not be able to choose good fabrics when people came soon.
When the second sister heard Lu Xiaoxiao's words, she immediately knelt down to choose cloths. After looking at all the cloths on the ground, she chose two pieces with the best quality.
"Grandma, how much do these two pieces of cloth cost?" the second sister asked the grandma who was selling the cloth.
"Four dollars."
When the second sister heard the stall owner’s price, she thought it was a bit expensive, so she said to the stall owner, “Grandma, can it be cheaper?”
"It's not cheap, but if you can buy two more, I'll give you one as a gift."
When the second sister heard what the stall owner said, she wanted to put down the homespun cloth in her hand. She only had three yuan in total, which was not enough to buy two pieces of cloth, let alone four pieces of cloth.
After Lu Xiaoxiao saw her second sister's actions, she reached out and took the cloth from her hand, and then said to the stall owner: "Grandma, I bought six pieces of cloth from you, can you give me two pieces?"
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, the stall owner thought for a moment and said, "Okay."
"Xiaoxiao, why did you buy so much cloth?" The second sister asked anxiously when she saw that Lu Xiaoxiao wanted to buy six pieces of cloth at once.
"Second sister, I will explain to you later. Now you can help me choose six more pieces of good quality."
The second sister heard Lu Xiaoxiao's words and knew that Lu Xiaoxiao must buy so much cloth. She had no choice but to squat down and help Lu Xiaoxiao choose fabrics.
A few minutes later, Lu Xiaoxiao took the six pieces of cloth that her second sister had chosen for her. She handed them to the stall owner along with the two pieces of cloth in her hand and said, "Grandma, can you find something to hold the cloth for me?" Get up, otherwise I won’t be able to take it.”
The stall owner heard Lu Xiaoxiao's words and took the cloth Lu Xiaoxiao handed her, then took out a cloth rope from his pocket and tied the cloth Lu Xiaoxiao bought together.
Lu Xiaoxiao took out twelve yuan from her backpack and handed it to the stall owner, then took the bundled cloth from the stall owner's hand.
"Xiaoxiao, please put the fabric in my backpack." The second sister said to Lu Xiaoxiao after seeing the heavy bundle of fabric in Lu Xiaoxiao's hand.
When Lu Xiaoxiao heard the second sister's words, she was not polite to her, so she put the cloth in her hand into the basket carried by the second sister.
"Xiaoxiao, can you tell me now why you bought so much fabric in one go?"
"make clothes."
"I don't believe it. I have never seen you wearing clothes made of homespun cloth." The second sister said immediately after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words.
Lu Xiaoxiao laughed twice after hearing her second sister's words, and then said: "It's not that I don't wear clothes made of homespun, it's that I get extremely itchy when I wear clothes made of homespun."
Lu Xiaoxiao was not lying when she said that wearing homespun cloth would make her body itchy. She had worn homespun clothes once before, and within half a day, she had a lot of red bumps on her body, just like allergies. Since then, She no longer dared to wear homespun clothes.
