Xia He rarely came to the county town. Mrs. Liu gave so many banknotes to buy things. Li Qiusui was good at it! With the mentality of not spending money in vain, I walked around the Buzhuang Yinlou Study Room and Zhenbao Pavilion one by one.
Xia He is different from Li Qiu Sui. The latter only has his eyes on good things. He buys things first regardless of whether they are suitable or not.
Who knows that people are not short of money and have a large amount of unexpected wealth in their hands. Li Qiusui has become more and more superstitious recently. If the money is not spent, he always feels that it bites his wallet.
Four to five thousand taels, leave the money that Zhao Da will use to buy a house tomorrow, spend it wisely!
The memory of Xia He's poor family when he was a child is too fresh and unforgettable. Why did the little sister go to the Zheng family? She still can't let go of her parents carrying her sister on their backs, and the same is true for her. In the final analysis, it was all because the family was too poor and had no money.
Having money may not solve all your troubles, but without money, don't think about solving your troubles. Instead, troubles will come one after another.
With Xia He's mentality, even though her family's life is getting better now, she has not developed the habit of spending money lavishly.
In the cloth shop, Li Qiu Sui specially selected fashionable and comfortable fabrics. Xia He saw a large pile of cotton fabrics piled in the corner.
Most of the people who come to visit the embroidery shops of Cloth Shop are women. The shopkeepers in these places are either women themselves, or they find two attentive female shopping guides to help introduce them.
Xia He glanced at the pile of materials, and a careful woman from the cloth shop came over to talk to her, "That pile of fabrics got damp from heavy rain a while ago, and the shopkeeper said it was cheaper. The girl went over to take a look, They are all high-quality cotton fabrics. There are no major problems except for some watermarks in some places. They are also easy to make. When making clothes, they can be cut out directly or sewn into the clothes without affecting the appearance at all. The two girls bought these fabrics. Now, I will make the decision to make it cheaper for the two girls."
In the past two years, Xia He has devoted himself to becoming a female celebrity. He is guided by two female celebrity masters, Cuiping and Zhou Ping, who have extraordinary skills and vision.
She pulled open the fabric and took a look, and she knew where to use the scissors to make the garment invisible. I asked about the price and it was less than 10% of the original price. What else is there to say? One for each pattern.
Li Qiusui not only values food, but also values money. He knows that it is a good thing and will try his best to buy it from his family. When I was going out for flowers, I had not yet developed a sense of frugality.
The good materials she bought would not stop her sister from buying bargains.
When it comes to shopping, as long as it's within your ability and you're happy.
The two sisters chose too many materials, and together with Zhao Da, the three of them could not carry them. The shopkeeper of the cloth shop called the loading and unloading boy to help load the truck.
Li Qiu Sui took Xia He to the silver shop again to buy random jewelry.
When I go out, I encounter a salesman carrying a load and shouting. The quality of the goods is not necessarily very good, but the silk thread hair rope comb grate folding fans are so colorful that all the girls and wives passing by stop to take a look.
Xia He had seen such salesmen in Lijiacun, carrying burdens and shouting. At that time, their family was still living in the old house. Once, grandma bought two red-headed ropes and cut off a small piece for each of the girls to tie them on the little knots on their heads. It felt so beautiful at the time.
"Sui Sui, let's go take a look."
Just look at it, Li Qiusui is very wealthy.
Xia He picked around for a long time and bought a few flowers and a handful of ribbons and red ropes.
Li Qiusui thought about the fan he bought last time. His brothers had learned how to read and write, so it was necessary to show off with a fan! The items at this kind of stall may not be particular about the materials used, but the craftsmanship is quite good. So she picked out a few folding fans and saw a group fan for sale. Thinking that her grandma was still waving a big cattail fan made of cattail, she bought a few more.
Li Qiusui saw the copper bell, the rhubarb raised by Liu Chong and the group of dogs behind it, which helped his orchard greatly.
With a wave of his hand, he bought a bunch of copper bells, one for each dog's neck.
Xia He hurriedly grabbed his sister who was going crazy shopping, "Sui Sui, it's almost done, let's hurry up! Didn't you say we still have to go to the study?"
"That's right! I also want to buy story books. I've read all the ones that fourth brother brought back last time. Let's go to the study to see if there are any new ones."
Only then did Li Qiu Sui stop with some lingering interest. Many of the little things were so exquisite that he could always think of their uses when he saw them, so he couldn't help but buy them.
Every day when he was at home, he would draw and draw books to amuse himself and pass the time. In addition to practicing calligraphy and making female celebrities, Xia He also liked to read story books. The two sisters hit it off and went to the study.
How could one get hungry while wandering around? The two sisters waited until the sun set and had enough to eat and drink before heading back home.
Mrs. Liu was sitting on a stone stool at the door of her house picking beans. She was listening to Mrs. Ma chatting with the women from the next few houses. Someone asked Mrs. Liu, "Ms. Dashan, is your Li family really divided?"
"This can be false! I would say that Li Guangping's family is not authentic, let alone Li Guangping, the patriarch! If there is any benefit, go ahead. If there is no benefit, stay far away. You still have to be worried. Don't let your children be killed one day. Sell it for profit!"
The person who answered the call was Mrs. Ma. The grudge between her family and Li Guangping's family started when a robber came into her home.
Her eldest son almost broke an arm and hated the robbers. Although the robber and the second son of the Qian family were both imprisoned in the county jail, her family was the direct victim, so how could she not remember the culprit Li Zhenzhen!
She often added fuel to the rumors about Li Zhenzhen and the second son of the Qian family, making the whole village lose her reputation, and almost caused Li Zhenzhen to have her engagement broken off by the Shen family.
Later, the county government praised Li Zhenzhen as the benefactor of the drought-resistant people in a hundred miles around, and Li Changqing became a scholar and became a disciple of the county magistrate. Mrs. Ma, including the gossips around Lijia Village, finally stopped.
But the feud has been forged, and Li Guangping's mother-in-law often runs against Mrs. Ma whenever she meets someone.
Old Mrs. Ma is not someone who is willing to suffer losses. With Li Guangping's family gaining the upper hand, she feels that she has restrained herself a lot! Unexpectedly, people are not willing to give up, and the old lady in the country is so crazy, so why not care about whether there is a scholar in your family? Who supports your family? Rolling up your sleeves will pull out your hair.
As time goes by, the hatred between the two families becomes deeper and deeper.
So much so that Mrs. Ma didn't shy away from speaking ill of Li Guangping's family.
There are people living in a village who don't know about other people's affairs. Li Guangping has no grudges with most of them. In order to be verbally cheerful, he really can't offend others in front of so many people.
When Mrs. Ma spoke, they smiled beside her.
When I asked Mrs. Liu that woman, I wanted to hear what Mrs. Liu could say, to satisfy her curiosity, and to mutter a few words to someone I thought she was close to.
They would not be stupid enough to go with Mrs. Ma to scold Li Guangping's family.
Mrs. Ma is an expert at singing, reading, and playing, and she can sing the opera by herself.
The past two years have been extremely frustrating. The whole village is buzzing about how Li Guangping's family is doing.
"I think this sect should have been divided a long time ago. I heard that several members of the Li clan have been divided to your side?"
Mrs. Liu couldn't bear to go scolding Li Guangping with Mrs. Ma, so she just smiled and said nothing.
I murmured in my heart that it was time for the sisters Li Qiusui to come back after going to the county seat!
Mrs. Ma over there continued to clapped her hands and said impassionedly, "The drought and disaster relief in the past two years has been credited to Li Guangping's family. In fact, it is Sanzhu's family that has helped the most people in the village. I can see that every family is living better than before!" Anyway, we don’t care about others, our whole family wishes you well."
