Chapter Eighty-Five: Two Kinds of Buckles

Asking for a commuter pass——

At noon, I arrived outside the gate of Fucheng. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Wang gave Uncle Gao 200 wen for the car, and the family got out of the car. Uncle Gao fed the donkeys at the tea shop here, rested for a while, and then walked back, he wanted to return to Xianggong Village before dark.

A few people said goodbye to Uncle Gao, rented a mule cart, and entered the city.

The city is much more magnificent than the county seat. The main road in the city is paved with bluestone slabs, which is very wide, and the shops on both sides are lined with trees. Most of the shops are small buildings with several floors, blue walls and tiles, and red doors and windows, which are extremely gorgeous. Some of the larger shops are even more fancyly decorated, and there are many colorful lights hanging outside. In the middle of the road there were many canopy carriages, bustling with people on both sides.

I can see that Dabao's small mouth is open enough to stuff an egg. Ash and Qiqi also stuck their little heads out of the cloth and looked around.

Chen Afu smiled and pinched Xiao Zhengtai's little face, and took him out to see the world in the future.

After going down the main street, I passed a few more streets and alleys, and the road became narrower and narrower, and the houses were not as grand and spacious as before. The houses here are mixed, some are new brick houses, and some are low-rise old houses.

Mr. Wang said Mr. Chen's family lived in this alley.

There was a shop selling baked cakes at the entrance of the alley, and Chen Afu got out of the car and bought ten. At this time, it was already the end of noon, and Chen Shi and his wife were busy, so it was not good for them to be busy making dinner.

The mule cart came to a stop in front of a small shop, and Wang said.

This is a small dry miscellaneous shop, and the shop's name is Chen Sanganza. The red paint on the folded gate and doorposts has faded, and in some places it is even mottled and peeling. There is also a small shop next door, which is an oil shop. This is Chen Shi dividing his shop in two and renting it out.

As soon as a few people moved their things down, a man came out of the shop and laughed loudly, "Sister-in-law, I have been looking forward to it because I have been thinking that you will come in the next few days." ”

This man looks two points like Chen Ming and Chen Ye, wearing a half-worn silk gown, in his early thirties, medium height, white and delicate, with a short beard, it is Chen Shi. Of the three brothers of the Chen family, Chen Shi is the most handsome.

He looked at Chen Afu again and said, "Afu is really getting more and more handsome, do you still recognize the third uncle?" and greeted Ah Lu and Dabao.

Looking at his sincere smiling face, the fatigue of several people in the car was also eliminated, Chen Afu and his sister and brother called "third uncle", and Dabao shouted "third grandfather".

At this moment, a woman of about thirty years old and a girl came out of the shop.

The woman is Zhang, and the little girl is Chen Shi's daughter Chen Aman. Zhang's appearance is average and his face is kind. Chen Aman is like a father, a very delicate little girl.

Chen Ming and Zhang have three children, the eldest son Chen Ayu is 14 years old, the second daughter Chen Aman is 12 years old, and the younger son Chen Atang is 9 years old.

A few people walked through the bunk and into the backyard. The backyard is not big, and there are two wings with two ears in front of the shop. On the left side are three low-rise houses, a kitchen, a storeroom, and a courtesy room. There is only one chicken pen on the right, which shares a wall with the next door.

Chen Shi invited them into the right ear room, and there was a kang in the window of the room, and a pair of old boxes on the side of the kang. There is also a small stove made of adobe bricks in the innermost, which is probably used for heating in winter.

This is the house of Chen Ayu and Chen Atang, and now they are given to live in a family of four, and the two brothers live in the hall.

Zhang was about to go to the kitchen to roll noodles for them, but Wang stopped them, saying that they bought baked cakes and drank boiling water to eat them. Zhang still went to cook a pot of white siad egg soup for them.

After several people finished eating, Dabao and Ah Lu lay on the kang to rest, and Chen Afu's mother and daughter took out the things to be sent.

In addition to the two baskets of fresh vegetables and vegetables sent by the big room and the old lady, and the two packs of dim sum, they were sent by the second room. A few pieces of satin, Chen Shi is bright blue, Zhang's brown yellow, Chen Ayu's two brothers are moon white, and Chen Aman is crimson. In addition, he gave two brothers two pens, two inks, two knives of good rice paper, two juan flowers and a few ribbons to Chen Aman.

Chen Shi knew the goods, and when he saw these things, he was surprised, and said, "Ouch, this material is from Jiangnan, and these two pens are still from Wenshangzhai in Beijing." It's embarrassing to give us such a valuable thing. ”

Wang smiled, "There are still at home." He also briefly talked about what he did for the little master of Tangyuan and how Dabao played with her. He also mentioned that the big house was making a fuss because of satin, and asked them not to wear these satins to the countryside.

And he said, "...... It's not that we don't want to give things to the big house, and I always say that I want to repay the uncle. It's just sister-in-law, hey...... We didn't dare to take more. ”

Zhang sneered, "Then the Hu family really doesn't have to be ashamed, and he dares to do this in front of his uncle and mother-in-law." You're right, get used to it, and she's not going to scrape off a few layers of your floor. "The Zhang family is very angry with the Hu family.

Chen Shi sighed, "The eldest brother is a good parent, it turns out that when we were a family, he protected our brothers. Now that the family is separated, he protects his wife and children. Hey, it's just that the daughter-in-law didn't find a good one, and the sister-in-law did too much. ”

Chen Aman took the piece of satin and smiled crookedly, gesturing to do something good. It is also said that there are two kinds of buckles in Fucheng now, one is called the chrysanthemum big buckle, and the other is called the plum blossom small buckle, which is beautiful and tight. Many wealthy families went to the neon embroidery workshop to buy clothes or make clothes, and the clothes there used these two kinds of buckles. It is also sold separately, but it is too expensive.

In the end, he wrinkled his nose and said, "It's a pity that the buckles sold by the Nishang Embroidery Workshop are very expensive, and we can't afford them." A few days ago, Sister Qiu and I went there to see how the button was made, even if we didn't sell it well, it could still be suitable for the situation. As a result, before we could take a closer look, they were kicked out. If this dress is paired with a chrysanthemum buckle or a plum blossom buckle, oops, I don't know how beautiful it is. ”

Chen Afu laughed. The chrysanthemum buckle has become popular, and a plum blossom buckle has been made, and the young grandmother of the rich family is really capable. I heard Jin Yanzi say that her family seems to be in the provincial capital Shizhou Mansion, and her business has been more than 200 miles away from Dingzhou Mansion. Thinking about it again, Jin Yanzi also said that their family seems to be related to Chu Hanyan, and the Chu family is in Dingzhou Mansion, maybe they may have business dealings.

Your own dolls can also go to the neon embroidery workshop to try their luck, if the cooperation is good, they still have good ideas......

Wang Shi listened and said with a smile, "The chrysanthemum buckle was made by Ah Fu and sold to the young grandmother of a rich family, otherwise why would we have that silver for Ah Lu to see a doctor at that time." Seeing Chen Aman's surprised gaze, he said, "It's a pity that I told them at the time that we can't do this kind of buckle within a year, and we can't sell it for money." We can't afford to mess with those nobles, we have to listen to what they say. ”

Chen Aman pursed his lips regretfully.

Zhang said with a smile, "This satin is tender and suitable for making spring shirts, and when the deadline for next year is up, let your second aunt and Sister Ah Fu tell you what to do." ”
