Chapter 296 Shopping
Qiao Lan has already picked out books in the bookstore, this time she didn't pick out old books, because the old books don't have anything recently, they are all some that she doesn't need, and she plans to buy some new books to go back, especially travelogues and some introductions about embroidery and paintings. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
I used to think that as long as the embroidery is good, it will be, and now I have found that painting is also indispensable, if the level of painting is high, the charm of the wind and bones is very strong, the work itself has been successful, embroidered into a picture, naturally it is better.
Realizing this, she seemed to have found her direction and became targeted.
Now she has been painting for many years, worshiping the master of Chinese painting to learn art, copying the famous calligraphy and painting has long been unknown, has passed the stage of copying, now what is needed is to open more eyes, more knowledge, more style.
It's just that it's not easy to go out to collect style, and there are still a lot of restrictions on women in this era, so she can only find more good materials from books.
After reading for a while, I found some books on nine chapters of arithmetic and went back to the children to learn, and I also bought two travelogues, which were very well written, and the writing was very humorous and witty, especially the description of the scenery was very vivid.
I bought books such as the Book of Tea, the Luoyang Peony Sutra, and the Thirteen Chapters of the Book of Chess, and went back to see for myself.
She also found a sheet music, which made Qiaolan very happy.
Lingyu, who was looking for a book, came in quietly, glanced at her and smiled, everyone was quietly looking for books to read, no one made a sound, and Lingyu also consciously did not speak, so as not to disturb others.
Qiao Lan smiled, nodded, and took the book to the front counter to pay the bill.
"Help me wrap up these books, and get some ink ingots, it's better, do you still have paint?" Be good. "Qiaolan earns her own money to live, so she doesn't have to scruples, so she buys it well, and good things naturally have their expensive value.
"You're a coincidence, we just entered the good ink, serious Li Mo, sold in sets, not only sold, the price is a bit high, but it's worth the money, if there is a fake, come and smash my store at any time." Today, the shopkeeper is looking at the store, and she is also familiar with Qiaolan, and she often comes to buy books and pens and paper and ink.
"Oh, bring it to me, if it's good, I'll ask for it, Xiaoyu, do you have enough silver?" Qiao Lan turned her face embarrassedly, all the things she bought today were good, and the prices were expensive.
"That's enough, don't worry, even if you don't have to worry about money." Lingyu patted her chest and promised.
"I'll show you it, I promise you like it." The shopkeeper was very attentive when he heard it.
"This is a complete set of Li Mo, quite good, I have already sold two sets of the Li family, that is, Xiangye's family, and the adults also bought a set and left, I guarantee that you will not lose money if you buy it." The shopkeeper's open box is a complete set of ink ingots.
The quality is very good, you can smell the faint fragrance of Chinese medicine in your hand, and the aftertaste is not pungent, which is good ink. And because it is a complete set, the patterns drawn on it are also a set of patterns.
"I want it, wrap it up, and get me a few more pigments, and I want gold, silver, and yellow ......." Wait for a few colors to be reported in one breath.
"Okay, rice paper or? The best life announcement. The shopkeeper asked.
"Two knives. Give me some paper for my children to practice calligraphy. Qiao Lan didn't forget to choose a few more pieces of paper and brushes for children.
"Okay, I'll wrap it up for you." The shopkeeper was very happy and courteously sent two knives of yellow paper to practice calligraphy.
A total of nearly 500 taels of silver were used to settle the bill, mainly because Li Mo and the money of the books were more expensive, Li Mo was very good ink, which was highly respected in the Tang Dynasty, and even now it is a fine ink, and the royal family also uses this kind of ink more.
The price is naturally not cheap, but Qiaolan now has a lot of dowry income, and she can afford to use it completely, so she doesn't care, this set of ink can be used for a long time, and she doesn't have to buy it.
"Miss, if you spend so much today, will your uncle be unhappy?" Lingyu was a little worried that Chuanhu would be unhappy, after all, it was a thousand taels in one breath.
"It's okay, I'm making money myself, don't be nervous, besides, Brother Huzi is a generous person, I don't care about this money at all, don't worry." Qiao Lan is still confident in this.
They didn't take the things, but the shopkeeper said that he knew the place and sent it back to her, so that they could go shopping with peace of mind, and they didn't have to carry such a heavy thing.
"Then where are we going now, I'll bring enough when I come." Lingyu is talking about bringing enough money.
"I want to go to see the flower shop, if we are hungry, we can eat outside, they have someone to bring food at noon, so don't worry."
"Okay." Lingyu nodded happily.
The two went to the flower shop again to take a look, Lingyu was still eating sugar gourd in her mouth, and Qiaolan bought the snacks, and the child was very happy to eat it.
Qiao Lan planned to buy some expensive flowers and trees to plant back, she found that Uncle Xu's ability to grow flowers is really powerful, and she doesn't have to worry about raising death at all, so she plans to buy some precious flowers and plants to go back, and even if they are raised, it is a good income to sell them.
"Madam, you're here, please come in, what flowers do you want, we have a full range of varieties." Xiao'er greeted warmly.
"I'll see." Qiaolan didn't have to buy any variety of flowers, she just bought them when they looked good.
The main thing is to buy it back and grow well, you can paint, you can also appreciate it, and you can get it with one stone.
"It's the moon season, it's so beautiful." Qiao Lan wandered around in the flower room, and when she saw that the yellow moon season was very beautiful, she couldn't help but stop and admire.
"Exactly, there are still red and pink ones ahead, and new goods have just arrived."
"I want this yellow one, and that pink one." Qiao Lan looked good and bought it without hesitation.
"Cheng, do you want anything else?" Xiao Er stood not far behind him, holding a notebook in his hand to make records, and instructed people to move the flowers out.
"Is there any other variety of that peony?" Qiao Lan saw that there were camellia flowers in the distance, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
There are many varieties of peonies, and the hydrangea type she has seen is well-known, so it is good to buy it back and watch it or use it as medicine.
"Yes, there are also crown and chrysanthemum type, and the colors are also pink and red, light yellow and pure white." Xiao Er introduced meticulously.
Qiao Lan turned her head and asked Lingyu, "Is it good-looking?" ”
"It's good-looking, it's so good-looking, my dad will raise it." Lingyu said proudly.
"Okay, then I'll buy all these colors back, do you have peony flowers?" Qiao Lan was happy to buy it, and no matter how much it spent, she wouldn't lose money if she bought it back anyway.
"Yes, there are many colors, and there are also cherished varieties, and the ones that are easy to sell are white and red, as well as goose yellow."
There are a lot of peony flowers, Qiao Lan thought about it and bought Yao Huang and Wei Zi, as well as three varieties of luminous white according to her own preferences, if Uncle Xu raised it beautifully, he would buy it again.
Before she got married, she built a flower shed for her family, and she could raise precious varieties without fear of death.
"It's done, just a few." Qiao Lan clapped her hands and nodded happily.
"You send it to our house, it's silver." Lingyu is in charge of the next payment of money and arranging delivery, and now she is a bit of a standout.
"Miss, let's go to dinner." Lingyu touched her stomach and smiled coquettishly.
"Okay, what do you want to eat, let's go have a snack." Qiao Lan nodded happily.
"Is it okay to eat rice noodles? Cheap and tasty. Lingyu squinted and smiled.
"Okay."
