When I came to Mao Xiaosui for the first time, I also wanted to try a restaurant in the county. I didn't dare to go to a big restaurant, so I found an average-sized one.

It was crowded inside, so the waiter welcomed them to the second floor, handed them a bunch of wooden menus, and thoughtfully poured tea.

She didn't recognize some words, so she asked the waiter, "What is the signboard of your store?"

"Burn the fish, roast the elbow."

"Here are two, a vegetarian dish and two bowls of rice."

The waiter left in a hurry.

Mao Xiaosui took a sip of tea and said to Li Yunshan, "It's just different in the county. It's so lively."

Li Yunshan said, "The town is too deserted. Su County is more lively than here."

Mao Xiaosui was looking forward to it.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with staying in the village before, but once she was among the excitement, she found that she also yearned for it.

The food was served very quickly, and the rice bowls were not as big as those in their town, and the portions were not as big as those in their town. She was afraid that Li Yunshan would not be full, so she said, "Get another portion of rice."

The waiter responded and ran away.

Mao Xiaosui took a bite of the roasted fish first and found that it tasted sweet and sour. The roasted elbow was no different from the ones in the town. Mao Xiaosui had never eaten the vegetarian dish. It was sweet and silky, like the hard part of cabbage cut into shreds and fried, but It doesn't look like it.

She asked Li Yunshan, "What is this?"

"Spicy white."

"Why haven't I seen it?"

Li Yunshan said, "There is one over there in Su County. It's a big white one. It doesn't smell very good when it's raw. They usually put some sugar in it when they fry it."

Mao Xiaosui felt like a big radish when he heard that it was a big one in vain. He picked one up and looked at it carefully, then smelled it and asked him, "Are they sold here?"

"should have."

"Buy some."

"It's not delicious." Li Yunshan said.

"Try it." Mao Xiaosui laughed.

I have long been tired of eating those same dishes every year.

After eating and sitting for a while, they planned to leave. As soon as they got up, a waiter came over and said, "Three coins and eight copper coins."

After leaving the house, the two of them strolled around the streets again. The shops in the county looked bigger than those in the town, and they sold more types.

Mao Xiaosui was looking around when Li Yunshan suddenly pulled her up and went straight to a place. When she entered, she realized it was a rouge shop.

No woman wouldn't like these, and Mao Xiaosui also liked them.

The boss was a woman. He glanced at her face and quickly picked up a small exquisite porcelain box. He smiled and said, "Little lady, try this lipstick. It will match you very well."

Mao Xiaosui opened it and took a look. It was red that would never go wrong.

Li Yunshan also urged, "Try it."

Mao Xiaosui smeared a little on his finger, and then looked into the bronze mirror.

The bronze mirror was blurry and the view was not as clear as in the water. She could only ask Li Yunshan, "Does it look good?"

"It looks good." Li Yunshan couldn't move his eyes away as he stared at it. The landlady smiled indifferently, which made Mao Xiaosui feel embarrassed.

She applied less, her skin was fairer, and her complexion looked brighter.

The proprietress brought the eyebrow pencil over again and helped Mao Xiaosui draw it, and finally applied a lot of powder.

Li Yunshan was staring quite happily at first, but later his expression changed from doubtful to frowning to not knowing what to say.

Mao Xiaosui's intuition was wrong. He looked at the bronze mirror and was startled.

The person in the bronze mirror was frighteningly white, and his lips were too red.

The proprietress said, "This is the most popular makeup in the county. The little lady is pretty and looks good in painting."

Apart from the fact that her face was too pale and her mouth was too red, nothing else had changed, but inexplicably she looked like a female ghost who had just eaten someone.

She quickly said, "I want to wash it."

The landlady apologized and took her to wash her face.

Mao Xiaosui looked at the various brushes on the table and asked the proprietress, "Can I paint it myself?"

The landlady nodded, Mao Xiaosui put a little powder on his lips, took a few strokes on his eyebrows, and finally used a brush dipped in eyebrow cream to apply a stroke on each end of his eyes.

The landlady was immediately shocked, "Your eyes changed just like that?"

Li Yunshan was equally surprised.

Mao Xiaosui laughed and bought eyebrow cream and lipstick, as well as a box of powder.

The few things she ordered cost nearly a tael of silver. In the end, the enthusiastic landlady wanted her to keep it for makeup for customers, but Mao Xiaosui refused.

After leaving the house, Li Yunshan said again, "It's very beautiful."

Mao Xiaosui laughed, "This thing is quite expensive." Sure enough, women's money is easy to make at any time.

There was a curfew in the county, so they returned to the inn after coming out of Rouge Shop.

First, they asked the waiter if the carriage they bought had been delivered, and then went to the backyard to take a look.

The inn also required payment when parking horses. His mules and horses occupied a space, and there was a sign of their wing on the stable.

Mao Xiaosui still remembered that when they came yesterday, the waiter took the mule directly to the backyard.

It seemed that the management of the inn was quite strict. After confirming that the horse was the one they bought, they returned to the house. After Mao Xiaosui wiped off the makeup on his face, he talked about business.

Their pricing means they can only find those big shops.

They had to do business tomorrow morning, so the two of them went to bed early.

Because there were so many people in the inn, it was also extremely noisy. Mao Xiaosui fell asleep in the middle of the night, and was woken up by the sound of shouting all over the building and on the street at dawn in the morning.

The waiter brought water for washing, and Qin An had already packed it up.

They went to the stall downstairs and ordered steamed buns and porridge. During breakfast, Qin An said, "I found out yesterday that the largest clothing store in the county is called Caiyi Fang." "

"It's right there." Qin An reached out and pointed.

The two of them turned around and saw nothing until they finished eating and went to Caiyifang.

Mao Xiaosui originally thought he would arrive soon, but he detoured three streets and finally fainted completely.

When he arrived at the place, Mao Xiaosui was shocked to realize that this place could afford the title of "biggest".

Caiyifang is three stories high. There are a few clothes and fabrics on the first floor. There are fabrics hanging vertically from the top of the building and fixed to the ground. It is like a living sign. Judging from the color of the fabrics, I guess they changed it very diligently.

When I looked into the shop from the door, I saw that it was empty. There was only a woman sitting behind the counter, checking the bills.

Mao Xiaosui glanced at Li Yunshan, showing some inexplicable timidity. Qin An urged, "Let's go."

Mao Xiaosui coughed lightly and walked in.

There is a bell hanging on the door. When people enter, they will stir the tassel hanging on the bell to alert the people inside.

The woman sitting behind the counter raised her head. She was about thirty years old, with translucent and shiny skin on her face, and she was very friendly when she smiled.

Mao Xiaosui was made less nervous by her smile, and the woman asked, "How many of you are buying clothes?"

Mao Xiaosui glanced at her and felt that although the material was plain, the workmanship was very good.

She smiled and introduced, "We are engaged in rabbit skin breeding. We brought some of our own rabbit skins and wanted to ask if you are interested."

Qin An handed over the rabbit skin, but the woman didn't take it and shook her head, "We don't accept rabbit skins."

Mao Xiaosui still smiled and asked a lot, "Does your shop only accept foxes and minks?"

The woman's face was still gentle and she nodded, "Our Caiyi Shop only collects furs. We don't want rabbit skins in our shop."

"Sorry to bother you." Mao Xiaosui thanked him politely. As he walked out, the woman reminded them, "Maybe you can try your luck at Baiyi Building in West Alley."

Mao Xiaosui: "Thank you, little lady."

The woman nodded, turned around and went back to work behind the counter.
