Compared with several wandering markets around North Street, Chengdong Street is more decent. Happy; Wen; novel.lw+xs

The south side of the bridge is connected with the East Street, the houses on both sides are lined up one after another, it is a teahouse, a tavern, a pawnshop, a foot shop, a butcher's shop, a public house, etc., there is everything, you can see the silk and satin, jewelry and spices, incense paper horses, etc. placed outside the shops everywhere, pedestrians come and go, come and go, the crowd is crowded, quite dizzying.

Tan Wanqing was wearing a thick jacket, Ruizhu wanted to bring the silk cloak she had just sewn to the young lady, which was just right to block the wind in winter, but Tan Wanqing said no when she went out, and let her put it back in the house, worried about the bright red silk and piercing her eyes.

But now when the two of them walked on East Street, they saw that many women were wearing cloaks, begonia red, madder, cinnamon and autumn fragrance, silk yarn and silk brocade of various colors and textures, fine cotton, or lying rabbit wool, ordinary luxury, dazzling to see, probably the poor people's market for a long time, they didn't know that there would be such a prosperous market in this city.

Ruizhu complained a little as she walked: "I said that I wore it when I went out, Miss has to worry, there are people on this street." "She knows better than Miss, the dog's eyes in this city are very low, I don't know how many times I have been given away when I bought things before, the taste is not comfortable, she doesn't want Miss to suffer too, the cloak is just enough to support the field.

When I looked back at the jacket on Miss's body, it was still coarse fabric, Ruizhu couldn't help sighing, this time I came out to buy some fabric for Miss to make clothes, Miss is going to be a master, I always have to make two clothes to wear when I go out, those old clothes and hemp materials at home, how to wear them out.

Tan Wanqing and the others watched while walking, fortunately, the weather was good today, and they didn't feel cold, but they had been shopping for a long time.

This street is lined with shops, especially cloth and silk villages, as long as you choose the fabric in the store, you can spend some money to customize the style you want, completely handmade, this time there is no mass production.

Ruizhu's needlework is average, although the clothes can be done, but the hand is not fast, if the embroidery tailor in the store can cut it in three days, she will have to do it for ten days and eight days, Tan Wanqing is not willing to let Ruizhu grind foreign workers every day for a piece of clothing, and she hardly takes needlework on weekdays, let alone mention.

After a while, I left the cloth shop, planning to find some ready-to-wear shops, when the capital, there are quite a lot of such shops, one by one to do a good job in front of the case, if selected by the guests, the right dress can be bought directly, if it is not suitable, then pull the material for the person to tailor zuò, can be sold or made as a model, very flexible.

But such a garment shop, Wei Ancheng is very rare, walked around, and only found one in the corner, there are new clothes in the store, there are old clothes, left and right separated, but also cleaned up.

Although this kind of shop is also a ready-to-wear shop, it is actually a second-hand clothing shop, which contains many pawnshop pawn clothes, as well as some old clothes eliminated by wealthy families, and naturally there are coarse cloth clothes made of farmers' own weaving, and the price is very low.

As soon as Ruizhu entered, she saw those that were obviously worn by others, so she was disgusted and wanted to pull Tan Wanqing out, she said in a low voice: "Miss, we can't buy this, who knows who wore those clothes before, if they were picked off by a dead person, how bad it is, let's go and pull the materials, I'll stay up all night to make it for Miss." ”

Tan Wanqing glanced at it hurriedly, and also felt that the old clothes were indeed inappropriate, so she turned around and walked out.

The proprietress in her forties and wearing a blue and white jacket in the shop came out of the room, and when she saw the two, she greeted warmly: "Two girls come to buy clothes?" Who to buy it for? You can come in and pick one, we have men and women, fat and thin, children and the elderly, all kinds of clothes, and the price is fair, which is much more cost-effective than pulling new materials. ”

Now that people have come out, Tan Wanqing had no choice but to ask: "I wonder if there are any new ready-to-wear clothes to sell in the store." ”

The proprietress of the ready-to-wear store approached, looked the two of them up and down, and looked at Tan Wanqing's face twice before saying, "Of course there is, I am a tailor, and I also take some work on weekdays." ”

After speaking, he turned around and took out the basket from the back room, which contained clothes, "The girl must be waiting to wear it, the pawnshop will receive some fabrics and send them to me, these are all made of those materials, men's shirts and women's shirts are available, but there are not many of them, you see if there are any you can wear." ”

Tan Wanqing and Ruizhu glanced at each other, and it was not easy to turn around and go, so they stepped forward and picked up the clothes from the basket and looked at them, they were all folded, there were more men's shirts, and fewer women's shirts, the proprietress explained: "Don't mind, girl, these are all done in my spare time, picking my own family's size, if we can't sell it, we can all wear it." After speaking, he took out a woman's skirt and said, "You see, the material is thick, and the double is pressed on the edge, which is impermeable to wear at this time, and it is warm." ”

The women's shirt was mediocre, and Rui Zhu didn't want to look at it anymore after seeing it, and pulled Tan Wanqing's sleeve.

Tan Wanqing turned her eyes and looked at the men's shirt she sewed, compared with the women's shirt, the men's shirt is made with more care, several different styles, and the new and old materials can be seen at a glance, the new materials have not passed the water, and there is still a layer of pulp on them, and the feel is very obvious.

Pick up a winter coat, a layer, a layer of silk lining, smooth and soft, but look at the past, and the underwear is pasted with cotton wool, that is, pants, are also double-layered, with silk reeling scraps, used as a velvet, light and warm to the touch.

Tan Wanqing thought about it, picked out two sets of men's shirts that were close to her size, and asked for the price.

The proprietress of the ready-to-wear shop was still a little reluctant, and said straightly: "...... The girl has a good eye, I have worked these two sets, I originally planned to give them to my son, he is studying in a foreign country, but unfortunately it is too far away, and I can't give it up for a while. ”

"These materials are carefully selected, thick, comfortable and real, and the price is definitely not as expensive as the cloth village...... "The proprietress of the ready-to-wear shop said.

Tan Wanqing didn't bargain, so she asked her to wrap her clothes and let Ruizhu next to her pay.

When she went out, Rui Zhu was still beside her and looked at her young lady in surprise, "Miss, why do we buy men's clothes, even if we go to the academy, we don't have to dress like this." ”

"It's more convenient to wear it this way, the one I bought definitely doesn't fit, it's a little big, when I go back, you can help me change it." Tan Wan Qingdao.

Ruizhu had no choice but to respond, and then thought of the appearance of the young lady, wearing a men's shirt, maybe she pressed it, so she also recognized the burden in her hand, thinking about how to change it to look better when she went back, after all, the men's shirt is still too plain for women's colored clothes.

The ready-to-wear shop is a little remote, when the two came out, turned the alley, met a drunken prodigal boy, followed by a small guy, from time to time to help him, when he got closer, drunk eyes glanced at the face of the person opposite, suddenly shivered, and his eyes were round.

Just as he was about to pass by, he strode over and stopped the man.
