The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm
Chapter 137 Buying Shoes
Yanzi raised her head and put down the work in her hands, motioning for the other party to sit down. She wanted to pour her a glass of water, thinking that she must be thirsty after walking all the way, but her aunt stopped her, "I can do it myself, it's not convenient for you."
As he spoke, he poured himself a glass of water and drank it in big gulps, finally quenching his thirst. "Guess who we're going to see?"
Yan Zi smiled and said, "How can I guess that? Please don't keep me in suspense."
The aunt no longer hid the truth and spoke out, "Yesterday, my boy was called away by the head of the village in the middle of the night to go to your uncle. Tsk tsk, he was beaten beyond recognition and was carried back on a stretcher."
When Yan Zi heard the news, she quickly recovered from her shocked expression. Her uncle had offended so many people before, and he had offended Miss Lin, so it was normal for him to suffer such a disaster.
But he was indeed a bit cruel and beat him so badly that I couldn't imagine it. I have to tell the third brother about it when he comes back.
Thinking of what Ni'er said last night, I took this opportunity to ask, "By the way, aunt, do you know anyone who can build a house? This adobe house of ours has been built by my third son alone for a long time. It's the rainy season now, and it's impossible to live in it when it rains."
The aunt looked around. The thatched house was leaking everywhere and there was a pile of adobe bricks outside. She thought, "hurry up! What are you waiting for? It would be great if you could live in a comfortable house as soon as possible."
Everyone knew how poor this family was before, and they were notorious in the village. Now that things are getting better, they should be able to come up with the money.
It was just a coincidence. A few days ago, I was thinking about when to renovate my house, and asked around to find someone with good skills. It just so happened that I could help Yan Zi and her family.
"You're right, I just happen to know them, but I need to cook a meal for them every day."
"You are heavy and it is inconvenient for you. I can help you when the time comes, but I can't do it alone. I need to find a few more helpers."
"They will come and take a look first, and then we can discuss the price. It won't be too expensive. I'll ask them to send someone over this afternoon."
Yan Zi didn't expect that such a big task as building a house could be accomplished in just a few chats. It was just the right time to wait for the third child to come back and discuss it. If the price was right, they would be able to move into the new house soon. The two children must be so happy.
My aunt took the finished clothes away and hurried back to deal with this matter.
After delivering the tofu, the third brother did not rush home, but went to the shoe store in town to shop.
There are several shoe stores in the town, so I am not in a hurry and plan to visit all of them, hoping to find a pair of nice and comfortable shoes for my wife. She will definitely be happy when I bring her back.
Yan Zi doesn't have to make shoes by herself and can take a break, so it's worth spending some money.
I walked into a random shop and saw the shopkeeper was fiddling with an abacus. I looked up and saw that the man had nothing valuable on him. It just so happened that the shoes here were all cheap, which was quite suitable for his status. "Sir, who do you want to buy shoes for?"
The third brother came in and saw that there didn't seem to be any good-looking shoes, all black. Yan Zi definitely didn't like this kind of shoes, and he didn't know if there were any other shoes in the store. "I want to choose some for my wife."
The shopkeeper took out a pair of shoes from the cabinet behind him and said, "This pair is the best-selling one in our store. The sole is soft and your feet won't get tired when you wear it."
The third brother took the shoes handed to him by the shopkeeper, bent them with his hand, and found that they were exactly as he said.
Although it doesn't look good, it is comfortable. I have never seen such a soft sole.
The black one is suitable for walking outside and is not afraid of getting dirty. In a few months, my wife's feet may swell, so I'll buy a slightly larger one.
He took out a rope from his clothes with a knot on it, and said, "Boss, give me a pair that's a little longer than this."
The owner of a shoe store rarely sees men buying shoes for their wives. Even if they do buy shoes, they always bring the men to try them on directly.
When he didn't bring anyone with him, he often didn't know anything and didn't know what size to buy. It seems that this man loves his wife very much and is very careful, which is rare.
But the sizes have been measured, so why should I buy a bigger one? The shopkeeper was a little confused. It would be more comfortable to wear if I bought the right one.
I couldn't help but be curious, "Sir, why don't you buy the right one?"
The third brother couldn't help but grin when talking about this, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth, "My wife is pregnant and her feet swell easily, so I bought her something bigger so that she can wear it more comfortably."
The shopkeeper nodded slightly. It was the first time he had encountered such a customer in all these years of running the shop, so he took out a pair of slightly larger shoes.
Usually when buying shoes, the first thing people would ask is the price, but he didn’t seem to care. Maybe his family was rich and he had made a mistake. However, his vision, which he had trained over the years, was always very accurate, so he always felt that he would not be wrong.
Or maybe this guy buys things for his wife and doesn't care about the price.
It's quite interesting. I want to see when he will ask this question. "Sir, I'll pack it for you."
The third brother was quite satisfied with the shoes and waved his hand, "Pack them up, how much?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Not expensive, these shoes are only twelve cents."
The third brother thought that the twelve-cent pair of shoes was not cheap. He usually wore the ones Yan Zi made herself. "Can you make them cheaper?"
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "This price is already the lowest. Men like you are rare. I only give you this price because you care about your wife."
The third brother thought that the item felt really good in his hand and was worth the price, so he didn't bargain anymore. He paid the money and went into the next store.
Yan Zi likes the ones with patterns, so I bought her another pair. Now that she has a comfortable pair, she can get her another pair that looks good.
The third brother walked to a slightly larger shoe store, looked around, and actually saw a pair of very nice shoes.
The shoe upper is pink with unknown purple flowers embroidered on it and a butterfly embroidered next to it, resting on it. If you don't look carefully, you might think it's a real butterfly. Swallow will definitely like it.
Just as he was about to reach out to take it, the waiter stopped him, "Sir, shoes get dirty easily. Let me hold it for you to see."
The third brother didn't mind. What if he didn't buy it and it got dirty? Who would he sell it to?
It looked even better up close, and I couldn't help but ask, "How much?"
The waiter took one look at the man's clothes and knew that he probably couldn't afford it, but he still said in a nice voice, "It'll cost one and a half taels of silver."
I was shocked when I heard the price. How could a pair of shoes be so expensive? Only who could afford them? But even I, an old man, think they look good and are worth the price. If I had the money, I would definitely buy them for Yan Zi.
After I fell in love with this pair of shoes, I no longer cared about any other pair. No matter how hard the waiter tried to persuade me, I refused to buy any other shoes. I will definitely buy those shoes when I save enough money.
On her way home at noon, Nier was thinking about how to build a new house.
There must be three rooms for living and a kitchen.
