Chang’an Peasant Girl

  Chapter 37 Why is she so bold? !

  I saw Jing Jing smiled and said: "No need, didn't Aunt Liuhua give me two sets, enough for a change."

   Xiao Changyi didn't speak, just looked at her, looked at her quietly, and looked at her fixedly.

  Quiet was watched and could only surrender, her smile was helpless and sweet: "That's fine, but you have to do it too." She dresses well herself, but her man dresses poorly, what does it feel like to call her?

  Xiao Changyi had expected her to say this. He knew that she also wanted to be nice to him, so he nodded without objection: "Yeah." After a pause, "You help me choose the color."

   "Of course." Quietly smiled. After glancing at the counter, he pointed to a azure horse and a black horse and preached: "Just those two colors, I think you look good in clothes."

   "Well." Xiao Changyi had no objection.

   The guy then asked: "What kind of texture do you want for the four colors of cloth that the two of you chose?"

  Quiet did not answer and asked, "How much is the cheapest one per foot?"

   The guy said: "The cheapest is eight cents a chi, coarse cloth."

   Quietly said: "We don't need to make the whole set, we just make the coat. How many feet does it take?"

   The guy took a wooden ruler to compare An Jing and Xiao Changyi roughly, and then said to An Jing: "Guest officer, you need four feet, and your future husband needs five feet."

   Quietly said: "Then I have four feet each for the two colors, and five feet each for his two colors."

   "It's all eight cents a chi?" the guy asked.

   nodded quietly: "Yeah." I usually wear it, peasant, I don't need to wear it so well.

Then the man picked up the abacus and counted again: "18 feet of coarse cloth, eight cents a foot, a total of one hundred and forty-four cents, plus the previous first-class red cloth and the manual fee of four hundred and thirty cents, a total of five hundred and seventy cents. Fourteen essays."

   Quietly said: "This coat is also troubled by your tailors to help us make it."

   "Okay," the man paused, "The guest officer bought so much cloth, then our shop will not charge you for the craftsmanship of this coat."

  Quietly said: "Then we bought so much cloth, shouldn't you also send something?"

The man smiled and said, "The guest officer is a shrewd person. But we can't lose money, right? We can still send some needles and threads." He pointed to the small objects not far from the counter, "The guest officer can also choose two from there. Take a purse with you."

   Quietly said: "How about we don't want any more needles, threads, brains and wallets, can you give me a little cheaper?"

   The guy immediately looked embarrassed: "Guest officer, we really can't do business at a loss, you go out and inquire, our Wanbu Pavilion's cloth is really the most fair..."

  Quiet then looked at Xiao Changyi.

   Xiao Changyi nodded slightly as soon as she saw her, saying that the price was already very fair and couldn't be cheaper, so An Jing also nodded to Xiao Changyi.

   Xiao Changyi took the money to pay the bill.

   Xiao Changyi took one tael of silver, which is equivalent to a thousand pennies. While looking for the money for Xiao Changyi, the man said sincerely: "Guest officer, you guys have such a good relationship, you look enviable."

  Quiet just laugh.

   After Xiao Changyi collected the money and credentials, Jing Jing went to pick needles, threads, brains and purses. After picking, she asked the buddy, "Can you get the coat in one day?"

The    guy said: "Yes, you can take it with the two of you tomorrow."

  Xiao Changyi didn't speak, just bent down and squatted in front of An Jing, An Jing immediately climbed up without embarrassment at all.

  The eyes of the people in the Wanbu Pavilion were straight, and they couldn't believe that An Jing was only an unmarried girl. Even a married woman was not as bold as An Jing.
