Chapter 5 Shopping
shopping
It took Lin Ya three days to make that unlucky cleansing medicinal soap, but this is all fast, after all, in addition to grinding the medicinal materials, it also takes a lot of time to mix and dry, but fortunately, it is summer, and the sun is enough to make it so quickly. Lin Ya made a total of eight palm-sized handmade facial soaps, as long as they are stored well, they can be stored for about a year, and with these eight pieces of medicinal soap, Lin Ya doesn't have to worry about her face washing problem within a year.
Lin Ya has been making facial soap these days, and the only thing she does outside of the medicated bath is probably to read books, no way, Lin Ya needs to re-adapt to the new writing method, and Lishu, who has practiced for more than 20 years, is now a very troublesome thing to re-learn simplified characters, plus the time is very tight, after all, there is less than a month to start school, Lin Ya also needs to look at math, English and the like again, after all, even if Lin Ya's grades are not the best, but she is also in the upper middle, If your grades drop too badly at the beginning of junior high school, it will be too unsightly.
Lin Ya's skin has indeed been much whiter in the past two days, at first Lin Ya thought it was her own illusion, but after soaking in the third medicinal bath, Lin Ya could clearly see that she had indeed turned white, although it was not yet to the point where her skin was as white as jade, but it was indeed much whiter than the black charcoal appearance at the beginning, and it was estimated that after using up the remaining seven medicinal baths, Lin Ya's skin would be completely white as it was in ancient times.
In the past few days, Lin Ya has gone through all her previous textbooks, although she can't say that she has memorized them completely, but she has also memorized them, and at least she won't be timid when she reaches junior high school.
Lin Ya's collection of books is still quite rich, after all, the Lin family's parents are both high school teachers, but because one teaches mathematics and the other teaches English, most of the books in the family are about mathematics and foreign languages, and some are textbooks. However, there are also some parts of it that Lin Ya is interested in, such as a hardcover version of the Compendium of Materia Medica, which Lin Ya didn't have at that time, so in addition to reading textbooks and the like in the past two days, Lin Ya will also look at this, Lin Ya is still very interested in medical books.
In the past few days, Lin Ya's parents still arrive home after nine o'clock every day very regularly, but this is already a good effort, after all, the third year of high school has to make up classes and have evening self-study, and the Lin family's parents teach the main courses and are all homeroom teachers, so they are busier than other teachers.
Because Lin Ya looks very strange these days, so yesterday Lin Ya also specifically told her mother that she planned to go out shopping and buy a few clothes in the next two days, and her mother did not object because of Lin Ya's young age, but paid 500 yuan to Lin Ya for her to look at and buy.
In fact, those Qian Lin's mothers have already given up at all, even if Lin Ya looks more mature, after all, she is still a twelve-year-old girl, and the clothes she bought are probably just like that, but since Lin Ya wants to buy clothes by herself, Lin's mother will naturally not discourage the enthusiasm of the child, at most, she will waste the five hundred yuan, which can be regarded as a lesson for Lin Ya.
Lin Ya also knew some of Lin's mother's thoughts, but Lin Ya also knew that she wouldn't spend money indiscriminately. So on the fourth day of Lin Ya's return to modern times, Lin Ya finally found the kung fu to go shopping.
Lin Ya took the five hundred that Lin's mother gave herself, and drew another thousand from her small treasury. Of course, you don't need so much to buy clothes, after all, the current price is not too expensive, and Lin Ya doesn't pursue any famous brands when buying clothes, as long as the material is comfortable. This thousand yuan was taken out to buy embroidery tools, after all, Lin Ya didn't know the price of these embroidery tools now.
Lin Ya planned to buy clothes first, and then buy embroidery tools, but Lin Ya didn't know that there were embroidery tools sold there, so she could only beg her mother to help her get an Alipay, and then she could buy it from the Internet.
Lin Ya bought clothes and went directly to the place where her mother took her to buy clothes in her memory, which is the central business street, where there are many clothing stores, but there are only a few that sell children's clothes, and most of them buy adult clothes, but this is enough. It was less than nine o'clock when Lin Ya arrived, wearing her blue dress, no way, Lin Ya was all sportswear except for this skirt, or school uniforms.
Fortunately, the style of this skirt is particularly simple, so there is no trouble at all such as zĂ i being outdated, and there is a pair of plastic sandals on her feet, which is more popular at that time is this kind of crystal sandals, although in Lin Ya's opinion, these sandals are not good-looking at all, and they look earthy, but in the eyes of Lin Ya, a girl as big as them, this is the best-looking.
Lin Ya's other shoes are sneakers and a few pairs of cloth shoes, which are similar to Gabunon with skirts, so she wears these sandals.
When Lin Ya arrived at the place, she found that she had come out too early today, and arrived at the place at half past eight, but most of the shops had not opened at all, Lin Ya looked left and right, and saw a McDonald's not far away, and went in directly to ask for a pie and a cup of milk tea, and ate leisurely, after all, those shops that buy clothes usually do not open until nine o'clock. During this time, Lin Ya was leisurely drinking milk tea, looking at a tabloid in her hand, which was given by the person at the door when Lin Ya entered McDonald's just now, and it was full of jokes and the like, and it was good to pass the time.
Lu Man sat in the seat, but he didn't know why he always felt that someone was looking at him, and when he looked up, he saw a boy next to him staring at him blankly, and he didn't know why. But after a glance, I didn't care too much, and continued to bury my head in the joke.
When it was about nine o'clock, Lin Ya took her schoolbag to buy clothes, Lin Ya went directly to her nearest children's clothing store, not to mention that the attitude of the boss was quite good, at first it was quite strange to see Lin Ya come to buy clothes alone, but she didn't think Lin Ya was here to make trouble.
Lin Ya didn't bother to go back and forth, so she bought all the clothes in this store, of course, because the style of the clothes in this store was more in line with Lin Ya's preferences, Lin Ya picked two plain dresses, and bought two light-colored T-shirts, a pair of blue jeans, and a pair of gray slacks, before leaving this store, the price of the clothes was not expensive, it cost a total of six hundred, and people gave a discount, a total of five hundred, just the money given by Lin Ya's mother, and the materials of the clothes are very good, It's worth it to sell for this price.
After buying the clothes, Lin Ya asked the aunt who bought the clothes for herself if there were any embroidery tools sold in the vicinity, not to mention that Lin Ya really asked the right person, the aunt told Lin Ya, go south, there is really a shop that sells embroidery in the southernmost part of the center street, it has been open for decades, it is a time-honored brand, and the things in it are quite complete, in addition to buying embroidery, also selling some embroidery tools, but the price is slightly higher.
Lin Ya politely said thank you to her aunt, and then carried a few bags in her hand and walked over there with her schoolbag on her back. To tell the truth, Lin Ya was ready to sell embroidery tools, after all, Lin Ya had the idea of exchanging embroidery for money, and there was a computer at home, Lin Ya would naturally check the news in advance, and then Lin Ya clearly knew that today's embroidery is very small, although good embroidery works are indeed very expensive, but Lin Ya does not have a good sales channel, can't sell, no matter how good Lin Ya's embroidery is, what's the use, but Lin Ya does want to buy some embroidery tools, first, to pass the time, and second, even if it can't be sold, Giving it away is also a good choice, isn't it! I really didn't expect to be able to meet the embroidery village, which is very good.
Lin Ya looked for the route that the aunt said just now, and sure enough, she found the embroidery village, the decoration was antique, very tasteful, as soon as she entered, she saw that there were many embroideries placed inside, but most of them were small pieces, Lin Ya looked at the price, there were more than a hundred small handkerchiefs and the like, and there were thousands or even tens of thousands of large ones, and the embroidered patterns were also varied, and there were many embroidered Tulinya had never seen.
"Little girl, do you like it?" A middle-aged woman wearing a cheongsam said to Lin Ya with a smile, in fact, the middle-aged woman Da Lin Ya noticed this little girl as soon as she entered the store, although the clothes were very simple, but the style of the whole body was not ordinary, just like coming out of the picture of an ancient lady, every move can be included in the painting, and there is an elegance between the behaviors, which is really not like the temperament that should be at this age.
Lin Ya smiled gently, "Hello, I just looked, when I went to buy clothes just now, I heard that there is an embroidery village here, and I came here if I was interested." Lin Ya also remembered that she had never learned embroidery before, so how could she embroider the finished product, so the words turned around her mouth.
"Oh, a little girl of your age would be interested in this, and you're here to see it?" Zhang Shuwen looked at Lin Ya with a smile and said very gently. Zhang Shuwen is the owner of this embroidery village, this embroidery village has been in her grandfather since she was a child, Zhang Shuwen has followed her grandfather to learn embroidery since she was a child, and later took over the embroidery village directly, in addition to Zhang Shuwen's own works, most of the embroidery in this embroidery village are purchased from other places, and some of them are embroidered by the embroidery girl who signed a contract with the embroidery village, so for people who like embroidery, Zhang Shuwen is naturally a little close, not to mention that Lin Ya looks jade and snow cute, and Zhang Shuwen's own daughter is about the same age, which makes her like it.
Lin Ya also saw the kindness of the shopkeeper, smiled gently, and said: "Not really, I really like embroidery, I learned some on the Internet, and I wanted to buy some materials to actually practice, so I came here, I don't know if you have it here?" Lin Ya's voice was crisp and pleasant, but soft-spoken, making people feel like a spring breeze.
"Yes, I'm all here, I don't know what you want, how much is it?" Zhang Shuwen asked with a smile.
Lin Ya thought for a while, she had just started embroidering now, and it was not suitable to use those that were too expensive, so as not to arouse suspicion, so she smiled and said: "Please take plain cotton for me, if you want to use the thread, you can just take the ordinary cotton fine embroidery thread, the color is troublesome for you to match, I also need an embroidery bandage and some embroidery needles, please help me to match." â
When Zhang Shuwen heard this, she found that this girl was really good at embroidery, and the things she chose were all very suitable for novices but also had a little technical content, she nodded with a smile, and went into the house to get things for Lin Ya.
Lin Ya looked at the plain cotton and embroidery thread and embroidery needle that Zhang Shuwen took out, and smiled with satisfaction, the thing was very good, the cotton cloth was taken two meters two, Lin Ya estimated that the store was taking it for herself according to the material of a screen, smiled and thanked the shopkeeper, and paid. In fact, these things are not expensive, plain cotton costs eight yuan a meter, it's not that this kind of fabric is not good, in fact, the texture of plain cotton is very soft, but it's a pity that plain cotton also has the shortcomings of cotton, that is, the color is not conspicuous, although Lin Ya took the best plain cotton, but it was pure white on it, and there was no color at all, so the price was not expensive, and the cotton thread was the same, although I bought a lot, but it only cost about sixty yuan, and the rest is needless to say, so Lin Ya spent less than a hundred yuan on adding and subtracting! Of course, this is also Lin Ya is just the most ordinary thing for practice, if you buy the best soft satin, plus silk thread, it will definitely not be this price.
