The time-traveling lady is too fierce
Chapter 15: My Wife Spends as She Pleases
Li Qiuge and Shi Dalang both changed into clean clothes and looked really energetic. The only thing Li Qiuge was dissatisfied with Shi Dalang was why he didn't shave his beard. He always had a face full of stubble, which not only made him look old, but also made his appearance unclear. I have carefully observed Shi Dalang several times. Shi Dalang has handsome features. If he could shave his beard, he would definitely attract a lot of young girls and wives. Is it that Shi Dalang knows that he is handsome and deliberately uses a beard to hide it so that others don't see it?
"You've bought all the clothes, and you want to buy something else? Do you want to go to the silver shop over there and have a look?" The women in the Shi family all had some silver ornaments on their heads, except Li Qiuge.
"Of course we have to go, and we have to buy two more things to piss off old lady Shi!" There was no need for Li Qiuge to hide her opinion of the Shi family. She felt that she didn't like Shi Dalang very much either. He just didn't understand why Shi Dalang didn't separate from the Shi family, but was willing to feed that family of parasites.
"If you really don't like the Shi family, let's move out. I can earn more money and build a new house." He used to stay with the Shi family to conceal his identity. Now that he has married a wife, and her background is not good enough, she will definitely not be suspected. With Li Qiuge as a cover, he can separate from the Shi family.
"Are you willing to separate from the Shi family? I thought you liked living with them, otherwise you wouldn't be willing to support his nephews to go to school. Besides, what's the point of dividing? Didn't you say that you might want to leave in the future when you remember the past? I don't plan to stay here. What's the point of moving out? I have to spend money to build a house. What can't I do with that money? Besides, all the houses in the old Shi family were built by you. It's a waste if you don't live in them. It's so nice to have them serve you food and drink. I can also take care of them when I'm bored." As long as Shi Dalang is in cahoots with her and the Shi family relies on him to make money, isn't she afraid of what the Shi family will do to her?
"It's up to you to decide. As long as you have the energy to fight them, the jewelry store is in front." In a blink of an eye, they came to a jewelry store.
"Girl, this pair of bracelets are so beautiful. There are auspicious dragon and phoenix patterns on them. They will be perfect as a dowry." Li Qiuge and Shi Dalang entered the shop and happened to see Guihua and his sister-in-law Chunhua looking at the bracelets.
There were several styles on the tray, five or six in total, large and small.
"This pair of dragon and phoenix is really good, but it's a bit expensive. I also like the pair of flowers blooming for wealth, and the price is also acceptable. Sister-in-law, why don't you choose this pair?" The pair of dragon and phoenix is half as heavy as the pair of flowers blooming for wealth. Her family has already prepared a lot of dowry for her, and she can't just choose the expensive one regardless of her family's conditions.
"Sister Chunhua has money, so just pick the one you like. This pair of bracelets is given to you by your sister-in-law and brother." She had originally planned to come to the city to choose an expensive piece of jewelry for her sister-in-law. Since her sister-in-law liked this bracelet, of course she would buy it.
"Sister-in-law, it's better not to buy it. The education of my two nephews is expensive enough. You have to save more money for their education. I have already bought earrings and a ring. It is really unnecessary to buy such an expensive pair of bracelets." Her brother said that it was hard enough to support a large family. She couldn't add more burden to the family.
Hearing her sister-in-law being so sensible and mentioning her two children who were studying, Guihua did not insist any longer.
"Okay, then let's buy this piece of flowers in full bloom first. When your two nephews have made progress in their studies and become high officials, I will definitely ask them to buy you a pair of gold bracelets!" My husband is really hard-working. Otherwise, even if we had an ox cart, we would have to take the donkey cart of Li Qiuge and others. It's because my husband is out transporting goods for others when it's not a market day and is not at home.
"Okay, sister-in-law, my nephews are good at studying and will definitely have a bright future. I am waiting for them to show their filial piety to me."
"Shopkeeper, please pack this pair of flowers and fortune bracelets for me." The shopkeeper smiled and put the pair of silver bracelets into a small wooden box.
“You two, sister-in-law, have a really good relationship. Although this pair of Blossoms of Wealth and Prosperity bracelets are lighter than the auspicious dragon and phoenix bracelets, they are still much heavier than ordinary bracelets. It shows that your sister-in-law loves you very much.” Usually, the mother brings her daughter to choose the dowry, but it is quite rare for a sister-in-law to bring her younger sister-in-law with her.
"Boss, you don't know that my sister helps me with work every day. She also helped me raise my two children. How can I not love her?!" Chunhua embarrassedly pulled her sister-in-law.
"Sister-in-law, this is what we should do. Aren't we a family?" Her mother gave birth to her when she was old. When her sister-in-law married her, she was still young. She was considered as a sister-in-law since she was a child. She was taken care of by her sister-in-law. She would tell her sister-in-law about anything in her heart. So the relationship between the two is very good.
"Aunt Guihua, Sister Chunhua, are you two also here picking out jewelry?" Li Qiuge and Brother Qiu greeted them at this time.
"Sister, you are here too. We have already chosen everything. What do you want to buy? Auntie will give you some advice." Seeing Li Qiuge and Shi Dalang changed into new clothes and carrying a large bag on their backs, they must have almost finished shopping. They also bought all the fabrics they wanted, and they came to this store to pick out jewelry. Then they planned to wait for them at the city gate. Now they met and it was just right for them to go back to the village together.
"Okay, auntie, help me pick which one is suitable for me?" Brother Li Qiu didn't think that what Auntie Chunhua said was inappropriate at all. She was just kind-hearted.
"This young lady knows these two customers. That's perfect. If you buy a lot, I'll give you a discount like this customer." His shop is aimed at ordinary people, so most of the jewelry is silver. There are also gold jewelry, but not many styles. Ordinary people buy jewelry mostly during the Chinese New Year to save some money to buy one or two pieces, or like this, they will buy more for dowry.
"Thank you very much, shopkeeper. I'd like to take a look at some silver hairpins first. Can you recommend a few to me?" The shopkeeper saw that Li Qiuge and the others were wearing neat and clean cotton clothes and must have some spare money, so he took out a plate of hairpins with more novel styles for Li Qiuge to choose from.
"Young lady, look, these are the new styles delivered by our store this morning. Do you like any of them?" Li Qiuge took a look and found that the hairpins the shopkeeper took out were indeed of good styles.
"It's so beautiful, the butterfly is so lifelike!" Chunhua thought all the hairpins in this plate were very beautiful, especially the butterfly hairpin, which looked like the real thing.
"Yes, the craftsman who made these hairpins must have very good skills." Aunt Guihua also sighed that these hairpins were beautiful in style.
"Yes, I like them all. Dalang, which one do you think is suitable for me?" Li Qiuge was a little unsure which one was suitable for her.
Shi Dalang picked up a hairpin with a crabapple flower pattern carved on it and brought it to Li Qiuge's hair. "This one suits you better."
"Yes, this crabapple hairpin makes you look more beautiful on your head!" She knew that Li Qiuge was beautiful, but she didn't expect that Li Qiuge would look even more charming today when she put on such beautiful clothes and the silver hairpin!
Li Qiuge also liked the silver hairpin with crabapple pattern. Now that Shi Dalang had chosen it and put it on his head, she was very happy. It showed that they had similar tastes.
"I like this crabapple flower, but I also like that butterfly one." Just as the shopkeeper said, the craftsmanship of this old master is really good. The butterfly is lifelike. When you shake it with your hand, the butterfly will sway from side to side as if it is about to fly.
"Then buy both. How much is it, shopkeeper?" Shi Dalang decided to buy both immediately. Li Qiuge didn't think much of it. After all, multiple-choice questions were children's things. If she liked them, she would buy them both.
"Because the young lady chose only the finest products, these hairpins are heavy enough to cost five taels of silver each!" Aunt Guihua and her sister-in-law at the side thought this was too expensive. Just two hairpins would cost ten taels of silver, which was enough for them to save for two years.
"Okay, what else do you want to choose?" Li Qiuge looked at Shi Dalang with the feeling of a domineering president. The money was with her, so Shi Dalang answered quite straightforwardly, but it did please her.
