When the two arrived at the northwest corner, they were selling cloth and clothes, as well as shoes, and Li Xiang saw that Jinzhu couldn't wipe his face and ask the price, so he stepped forward to ask the price for Jinzhu.

After asking the price, I saw that other people's skirts were basically sold for 30 to 50 yuan, Li Xiang set 40 yuan for Jinzhu, with such a cute little girl as Jinzhu to wear, plus Li Xiang's shouting, Jinzhu's two skirts were quickly sold for 35 yuan each.

After selling the skirt, Jin Zhu walked to the stall selling cloth, and turned around, basically a thing called cotton cloth, Jin Zhu knew that this era is no longer fun to wear silk satin, but the cotton cloth here is very cheap, ten eggs can be exchanged for two feet of cloth, and it is wide.

This made Jinzhu very happy, she picked out several pieces of cotton cloth with a plain color, and it was not enough to put the seventy yuan she had just sold, and finally Li Xiang grabbed her, saying that the cotton cloth in the town would be cheaper, and she wanted to buy more, so she would go directly to the town one day.

"It's your shoes, isn't it time for a new pair?" Li Xiang looked at Jin Zhu's feet and said.

Probably afraid that Jinzhu would not be willing to spend money, Li Xiang hurriedly added, "That, even if I have a lot of mouth, the plastic sandals here are only a few yuan a pair." ”

"Thank you, that's what it means."

Jin Zhu took the initiative to walk to the shoe stall after hearing this, but what she wanted to buy was not the kind of sandals with open toes, but spent ten yuan to buy a pair of flat cloth shoes.

This time, Li Xiang didn't talk much, he thought that Jinzhu was purely to save money, and he couldn't help but feel more distressed about this little girl.

After buying shoes, Li Xiang led the gold beads to the place where handicrafts were sold, the customers there were basically tourists from other places, I heard that it was a glutinous rice cake made by hand, and I saw that the two children who sold things were very clean, and there was no black mud in the fingernails that stretched out, and the things were indeed cheap, and most people paid to taste them.

About the middle of the day, Li Xiang's glutinous rice cake was basically sold, at this time the market gradually dispersed, seeing that there were still about a dozen left, Li Xiang said not to sell, with gold beads to the river upstream, here is a street market, on both sides are shops, there are silver shops, iron shops, carpenter shops, as well as traditional batik shops and embroidery shops, the most is the silversmith shop, in short, all the supplies needed for life can be found here, and the dynasties where Jin Zhu lived before are similar, are small handicraft workshops, the masters are made on the spot, The difference is that there are a bunch of tourists taking pictures next to it, which is also the attraction of tourists in Tianjiazhai, where everything is almost original and has not changed for hundreds of years, except for electricity.

Jin Zhu paid attention to it, these tourists were really casual, they actually held hands and hugged on the street, and some female tourists from other places came out wearing a short shirt with an exposed navel, and the pants were also short, revealing white thighs, and some men were wearing a big pants and swaying on the street with their bare upper bodies.

Every time she saw this situation, Jin Zhu always unconsciously lowered her head, wishing that she could even close her eyes, until she accidentally bumped into a blonde and blue-eyed foreign woman, she didn't dare to walk with her head down and her eyes closed.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Li Xiang to enter an embroidery shop with gold beads, and there were five or six customers in the shop, including a yellow-haired and white-skinned foreign couple, the owner was a Miao woman in her forties, wearing a light blue collared embroidered ethnic dress, her hair was tied in a bun, and a big red fake flower was inserted on it. After saying that, Jin Zhu remembered that the Miao women here love to wear flowers in their hair.

When Jin Zhu was looking at the embroidery shop, he heard Li Xiang call out to the woman, "Auntie." ”

Jin Zhu looked back and saw the woman smile and said to Li Xiang, "If you haven't had lunch, I'll call your aunt and grandmother and ask her to cook you something delicious." ”

"No, aunt, my grandmother is still waiting for me at home. I'm here to sell glutinous rice cakes, and this is the glutinous rice I left for you, and I'll take them to my family to taste. By the way, my grandmother embroidered another lace. Li Xiang took out a piece wrapped in cloth from the bottom of his basket, opened it, and saw that it was a neatly folded lace.

The woman didn't look closely, took the lace and was about to put it on the counter, when the foreigner next to her whispered something.

"Auntie, they want to see the lace I brought." Li Xiang understood the other party's words and translated it to his aunt.

"Yo, my nephew is so good, he can understand foreign languages." The shopkeeper praised Li Xiang with a smile, and then opened the lace, Li Xiang said a few words to the two foreigners, and then asked his aunt how much it was for.

"Three hundred."

Li Xiang was slightly surprised, but quickly recovered his expression, and said a few words to the two foreigners, and finally the other party did not bargain, threw down three hundred yuan to buy this lace, and bought a few small items such as silk handkerchiefs and purses from the store.

When those customers went out, the shopkeeper directly stuffed the three hundred yuan into Li Xiang's hand.

Jin Zhu silently calculated on the side, such a lace, if she is allowed to embroider, she can embroider it in three or four days, so she can earn two or three thousand yuan in a summer vacation by embroidering lace.

But if Mapo doesn't take herself as an apprentice, how can she explain to others that she can embroider?

If you really want to take out the finished product, Zhou Shuixian may be the first to jump out and scold her for being possessed by a ghost, in case she is burned to death as a monster or sinks into the pond, although life is not easy, but Jinzhu still cherishes her second life.

Thinking like this, Jin Zhu dispelled that thought, and felt that he still had to come first, anyway, everyone knew that Yang Jinzhu's mother was a tailor, and the children's skirts were simple, and this explanation could be reasonable.

After making up his mind, Jin Zhu calmed down and looked at the things in the store, except for two sets of traditional handmade ethnic clothes, there were no large embroideries in the store, most of them were lace, handkerchiefs, purses, backpacks, headscarves, embroidered shoes, etc.

Jin Zhu inquired about the price, the handmade embroidered handkerchief is ten yuan a piece, the embroidered shoes are sixty-one pairs, and the lace is one hundred to two hundred.

"Aunt, Jin Zhu also wants to earn some money to study, you can find her something to do." Li wanted to see Jinzhu and inquire about this, so he introduced Jinzhu to his aunt.

Only then did Jin Zhu know that his aunt's name was Chen Xiuzhi and she had been running this embroidery shop for more than ten years.

Chen Xiuzhi looked at Jin Zhu and asked Jin Zhu what she would do, Jin Zhu said that the skirt on her body was made by herself, Chen Xiuzhi shook her head, what she did in her store was a tourist's business, tourists would not come here to buy this kind of clothes, people wanted national characteristics, and the clothes on Jin Zhu's body were grabbed casually on the street.

"If I embroider a handkerchief, how much can you charge?" Jin Zhu asked.

Handkerchiefs are the easiest, and beginners basically start with handkerchiefs.

"I have to see what you embroider, to put it bluntly, who still uses handkerchiefs now? Most people buy it back to keep a souvenir, since it is a commemoration, of course, it has to be handmade. Generally, we charge five yuan, and if it is better, we will collect seven yuan, and I have a silk handkerchief here, two yuan a piece, you can take it and try it. ”

That is to say, the best embroidered handkerchief can earn five yuan, although not very satisfied with this result, but if you want to learn embroidery, embroidering handkerchiefs is an indispensable process, fortunately, embroidering handkerchiefs is really a piece of cake for everyone like Jinzhu, she can embroider five or six a day, how can she also make up a little home.

Jin Zhu took five silk handkerchiefs, and spent ten yuan to buy a bandage, a little embroidery thread and a few embroidery needles, and the two of them took their leave.

"Are you hungry? I'll treat you to something to eat. Jin Zhu thought that there would be an hour before he could get home, and it would be hot, and if he fainted from hunger and heatstroke, he would be in trouble.

"No, I still have four glutinous rice cakes here, just two of us." Li Xiang took out four glutinous rice cakes from the bottom of the basket, gave two gold beads, and kept two for himself.

The two went back to the storage place to get the bicycle, returned along the same road, and when they returned to the door, they saw Jin Yang with Jin Liu and Jin Niu sitting on the beauty and looking out, seeing Jin Zhu, Jin Liu cried first, Jin Niu hurriedly ran down the stairs and threw himself into Jin Zhu's arms.

"Eldest sister, woo, eldest sister......" Taurus cried so much that he couldn't speak, and could only shout the word eldest sister, and he was frightened at first glance.

"The eldest sister is back, don't be afraid, tell the eldest sister, what's wrong?" Jin Zhu squatted down and wiped her tears with a cotton handkerchief.

At this time, Jin Yang and Jin Liu also came down and walked in front of Jin Zhu with red eyes.

"Mother-in-law is here?" Jin Zhu saw the slap mark on Jin Liu's face and hurriedly asked.

"Well, my mother-in-law came with Jin Xing, and when I saw that you weren't there, I went to your house to rummage things, and I didn't let her turn it over, so she beat me, and Jin Liu was also beaten in order to protect me, and in the end my mother-in-law didn't find anything, so she took the skirt you made for me to Jin Xing."

"What?" Jin Zhu only felt a surge of anger, "Jin Yang, you bring the basket in, Jin Liu, go, the eldest sister will take you to get this justice." ”

"Jin Zhu, let's go to the village chief for this matter."

"Okay." Jin Zhu thought for a moment and nodded.

She can't get used to Zhou Shuixian's problem, in case she gets used to it, she will come to the house to rummage things when Jinzhu is not at home, and Jinzhu will be able to have a peaceful life in the future? Today is lucky, before leaving, she took away the change under the mat, otherwise, the dozens of yuan would definitely go into Zhou Shuixian's pocket.

When Jin Yang heard this, he put the basket into the house, hung a lock on the door, and then led the golden bull to follow Jin Zhu as well.

Jin Zhu went to the village committee first, but there was no one in the village committee, so Jin Zhu directly found the village chief's house.
