The time-traveling lady is too fierce

Chapter 14 This girl doesn't know how to live

Shi Dalang brought Li Qiuge to a noodle stall and found a seat to sit down.

Li Qiuge looked around and saw a lot of people eating noodles, which showed that the noodles in this restaurant must be very good.

"Dalang is here. Do you want to eat shredded pork noodles today?" An old man came over to greet Shi Dalang with a smile and wiped the table with the rag in his hand.

"Two bowls of shredded pork noodles today. This is for my wife, Uncle Wang." Li Qiuge smiled at the stall owner.

"Oh, this is your wife. I knew you were getting married. I didn't expect you to marry such a beautiful girl. That's great. The noodles will be here soon. Let your wife have a taste of my cooking!" The girl is only fifteen or sixteen years old. Shi Dalang is already 27 years old. He is so lucky to have married such a young girl!

"You are quite familiar with the stall owner. You must have come here often to eat here before," Li Qiuge said, picking up the teapot on the table and pouring a bowl of hot tea.

The tea was full of tea foam and didn't taste good at all. Li Qiuge took a sip and put it down. He thought that it was such a small stall and he would lose a lot of money if he put good tea there.

Shi Dalang watched Li Qiuge's every move. This woman can also taste tea? !

"In the past, whenever I went to the city and didn't have a meal, I would come here to eat a bowl of shredded pork noodles. Uncle Wang's cooking skills are very good, he has been doing it for decades, the quantity is large, and it's not expensive." Li Qiuge also saw that there was a reason why this noodle stall was crowded with people. She looked around and saw that the people eating noodles were generally working men. That big bowl of noodles could fill a strong laborer, which shows how big the quantity was. And the price must not be expensive. It's not easy for these people to work, and they can't earn much money a day. If a bowl of noodles costs them half a day's wages, they will definitely not be willing to spend it.

"Then I must taste it carefully later!" While he was speaking, the two bowls of noodles were served on the table.

"It smells so good, Uncle Wang. Is this hot soup made with bone broth?" The noodles were made thinly and sprinkled with chives, which made them look appetizing.

"The girl has a keen nose. She knows it's made with bone soup without even eating it. Yes, I get up early every day to sell meat. I buy bones from Liu the butcher. The bones are cheap and the cost is not high, but the noodle soup is very delicious!" In this era, no one is willing to buy bones, so the price is not high. This is one of the reasons why the noodles made by old man Wang are delicious. This is also one of his tricks. But the most important reason is that his noodles are chewy and chewy.

Li Qiuge took a small sip of the soup, then took a mouthful of noodles, and even gave Uncle Wang a thumbs up.

"Uncle Wang, your cooking skills are amazing, otherwise you would eat so much!" Although Uncle Wang was used to hearing people praising his delicious noodles, he felt that Li Qiuge could smell that his soup was made from bone soup without even eating the noodles, and thought he was an expert. He couldn't help but be happier. People who are knowledgeable in the business praised his noodles for being delicious after eating them, so how could he not be happy?

"Dalang, your wife is so sweet. If you don't have enough food later, go to Uncle Wang for more. Uncle Wang doesn't want your money!" He and Shi Dalang had a good relationship, and now he liked his wife.

"Thank you, Uncle Wang." Shi Dalang was also happy. Others could praise his nominal wife.

Although Li Qiuge was a big eater, she left a lot of the noodles from the big bowl.

Looking up at Shi Dalang, he saw that the bowl of noodles was almost empty. It was a bit of a waste that he still had so much left.

"Dalang, look at me, I still have so much noodles left. It's really a waste. You see, I don't have any infectious disease. Why don't you eat it? Otherwise, Uncle Wang will definitely feel bad when he sees me have so much left." In ancient times, food was precious. This noodles is made of white flour. It would be a pity if it was left. Li Qiuge also saw that Shi Dalang was tall and strong, so he would not get sick even if he ate more.

Shi Dalang saw that Li Qiuge really couldn't eat anymore, so he didn't say anything, poured the remaining noodles from Li Qiuge into his own bowl, and ate them in two or three bites. Li Qiuge didn't know how intimate their behavior was.

After eating the noodles, we paid the bill. Two bowls of noodles only cost 12 yuan. Isn't that too cheap?! No wonder there are so many people at Uncle Wang's place. It's really affordable!

"Now that we're full, let's go buy clothes first. Otherwise, going shopping in these two tattered clothes will really affect our mood." After filling our stomachs, of course we have to consider our outward image.

"Do you plan to buy ready-made clothes directly, or buy cloth and make them yourself?" asked Shi Dalang.

"I can't wait to change my clothes. I definitely don't want to make them myself. Besides, my craftsmanship is not that good. I'd better buy two sets of ready-made clothes. Aren't ready-made clothes much more expensive than buying cloth?" Most of the rural people buy cloth and make them at home. But she remembered that the original owner's craftsmanship was not that good. She picked up clothes that her family didn't wear all year round. How could she have the opportunity to make her own clothes? She worked in the fields and collected firewood all day. How could she have time to learn embroidery? Her mother's embroidery was good, but she didn't have the opportunity to teach her.

Thinking of her adopted mother, she wondered how she was doing now. Without her working at Old Li's house, her mother must have been even more tired. Because she was bought, there was no such thing as a daughter-in-law returning home every three days. So since she got married, she had never returned to her parents' home. She thought that if she lived a good life in the future, she would return to her parents' home to see her adopted mother and buy her a few sets of clothes. Her mother was similar to her. She didn't buy any new clothes for a year, and her clothes were all patched.

"It's a bit expensive, but if you don't want to make it, just buy ready-made clothes. The clothes in the shop on the left side of the alley are good."

"Then let's go over there and take a look." Shi Dalang often came to the city to sell game, so he must be more familiar with this place than her shop.

Shi Dalang brought Li Qiuge to the shop. Li Qiuge saw that the shop was full of various styles of clothes, some made of linen, some made of fine cotton. There were many types, but most of them were worn by rural people. There were only a few pieces made of good materials, which showed that this shop was targeting ordinary people.

There were other women in the shop selecting fabrics for ready-made clothes. Although the shop mainly sold ready-made clothes, most of them also sold fabrics.

After entertaining the woman who came to buy cloth, the shop owner hurried to receive Li Qiuge and Shi Dalang.

Li Qiu saw that the shopkeeper had a good attitude towards the two of them, so he knew that the shopkeeper was not a snob, otherwise how could his business be so good? Otherwise, he could still have such a good business in the alley, so he must have a very good reputation.

"What kind of ready-made clothes or materials would you like to buy, sir?" the shopkeeper asked with a smile.

"Let's buy two sets of ready-made clothes. My husband and I will pick two each. I'm not good at making clothes, so it's more convenient to buy ready-made clothes!" Li Qiuge said generously.

The shopkeeper laughed. This young lady was really interesting. She complained about her poor cooking skills right in front of her husband. It showed that the relationship between the two was pretty good. Hearing the young lady say that the person standing in front of her was her husband, he was quite surprised. This young lady was quite young and it was a pity that she found such an old husband. However, her husband was tall and Ma Da must be a capable man.

"Then please come this way," the shopkeeper said, and invited the two men to the place where ready-made clothes were sold.

"Young lady, we have all the ready-made clothes you want to buy. Look, this one is made of linen, which is strong and durable, and is most suitable for work. This one is made of fine cotton, which is soft and bright in color and looks good." Li Qiuge looked at the clothes made of linen, which felt hard to the touch. This was the clothes that the original owner had worn for a lifetime, and she didn't want to wear them anymore. She touched the fine cotton clothes with her hand again. They were not as good as her previous clothes, but they were indeed much softer than the linen.

"Boss, I want this fine cotton one," Li Qiuge flipped through the cotton clothes and picked out four sets at once! One light pink, one light green, one light blue, and one beige!

Then she picked out four sets of clothes for Shi Dalang, but the colors were different from hers. She picked navy blue for Shi Dalang. Navy blue is suitable for men, including two long sets and two short sets. The sets she picked were also two skirts and two trousers.

She also picked out clothes, pants and socks and bought four sets for the two of them. Shi Dalang saw that the clothes Li Xiu chose for him were all very suitable. This woman didn't even measure herself, but she chose them so well!

The shopkeeper didn't expect Li Qiuge to be so generous and actually selected so many clothes. He thought that the two of them could only choose two sets at most. He didn't expect Li Qiuge to buy so many things. Judging from their clothes and appearance, they didn't seem to be rich, but they were willing to spend so much money on clothes.

"Young lady, you bought so much, which must cost a lot of money. All you chose are made of fine cotton." The shopkeeper kindly reminded her that life is not good and she should not spend money lavishly just because she has money.

"Shopkeeper, please do the math. My husband can hunt and make money, so it's easy for him to support me. I dress beautifully and she will be happy to see me." When the shopkeeper heard Li Qiuge say this, he couldn't help but think that this young lady was really a spendthrift. It was not easy to go up the mountain to hunt. Forget it, it was someone else's business, so he didn't say anything. And seeing that his husband didn't say anything either.

"The fine cotton women's clothes you chose are all 200 wen each, your husband's are 300 wen each, and these shoes and socks are wen each, which is three and a half taels of new money. If you buy a lot, I will give you some scraps of cloth to make a purse." The shoes chosen by the young lady were also of good quality, so the total amount was quite a lot.

"Thank you, boss. Pack them all for me." Li Qiuge took out the silver from his arms and showed it to Shi Dalang. Then he picked out about three and a half taels of silver and handed it to the shopkeeper.

So many clothes, packed into a big bag, all on Shi Dalang's back. Both of them changed into new clothes, and Li Qiuge threw away the ragged linen clothes. After leaving the shop, the shopkeeper couldn't help but shake his head, this young lady really didn't know how to live, these old clothes can still be worn in the fields.

But looking at this young couple putting on their clothes, they are simply handsome men and beautiful women, a perfect match. I can't help but think that their clothes are really beautiful!
