Chapter 42: Buying New Clothes
The clouds fade and the sun sets, dyeing the sky like gold leaf and like an ink painting painted by a Danqing master, the majestic atmosphere is stunning to the eyes.
And Shen Qingqing's business is very good, she has sold everything before it gets dark, and she counts the silver taels happily.
This sold a total of more than ten taels of silver, and after deducting the cost and processing fees, a total of four taels of silver was earned, which is really a lot of income.
Thinking of Shen Qingqing, she happily put away the blue cloth and put it in the back basket.
She didn't go home directly, but went to the ready-to-wear store next to her, she was busy making money these days and didn't have time to buy winter clothes, this red dress was still the suit that the original owner had just married, and now she was fat on her body, and she just made a lot of money and bought one or two for herself.
"Boss, do you have any nice styles and fabrics here?" Shen Jingjing walked into the ready-to-wear store and kept touching the fabrics.
Although she is industrious, women always love beauty.
The boss was tapping on the abacus behind the counter, and when he saw that it was Shen Qingqing coming, he just raised his eyelids and put them down: "These fabrics are all good, you can choose what you want." ”
Shen Qingqing's actions were shocked when he said a word, how could this boss's attitude be so cold?
But she didn't want to ask, just nodded: "Okay, I'll pick this one myself." ”
There are a lot of fabrics in this ready-to-wear store, and the patterns are also complex and varied.
Shen Qingqing took a fancy to a skirt made of yellow cloud fabric, and the skirt below was very lazy to put on the vest, but it was very neat and suitable for work when she took off the vest, and this yellow was also brighter in winter, which made people not feel so dull.
The more Shen Qingqing looked at it, the happier she became, and asked, "How do you sell this dress, boss?" ”
It's okay not to ask, but this question, the boss seems to treat Shen Qingqing as if he is a transparent person, he just snorted coldly and didn't look at it.
Not to mention that the customer is God, even the boss is indifferent.
It turned out that the boss had been watching Shen Qingqing set up a stall in the store to sell this scarf and leather boots, and this scholar should have come to his ready-to-wear store to buy clothes when he was cold, but being manipulated by Shen Qingqing seemed to rob his business.
The peer is an enemy, and this boss is naturally not very good at dealing with Shen Qingqing.
But Shen Qingqing didn't know this, she was confused when she saw that the boss's eyes suddenly lit up, and she had already arrived at the door with a bent over: "Yo, Mrs. Liu, what kind of wind blew you over today?" ”
This kind of courteous attitude and seeing Shen Qingqing are really like two people.
Shen Qingqing couldn't help but look at the door, and directly from the door came out a woman about thirty years old, this woman is very well maintained, a pair of hanging eyes are full of charm, her face is like a shelled egg, her hair is full of gold and silver hairpins, she looks very rich, and there is a maid-like figure behind her.
When Shen Qingqing was curious about which rich man's wife this was, the woman smiled when she saw Shen Qingqing, and she didn't even look at the owner of the ready-to-wear store and just walked in front of Shen Qingqing: "Sister Qingqing is me, don't you remember me?" ”
After careful inspection, I saw that this person was none other than Mrs. Liu, the wife of Master Liu, who often went to deliver glutinous rice dumplings.
Although Shen Qingqing and Mrs. Liu have not met much, they have also spoken a few words, and they are very warm and generous, without the slightest squeamishness.
Shen Qingqing hurriedly smiled and held Mrs. Liu's hand: "Mrs. Liu, I see that you have become a little more beautiful these days, and I didn't dare to recognize you just now." ”
Mrs. Liu was trembling by Shen Qingqing's small mouth, as the saying goes, reach out and don't hit people with smiling faces, everyone likes to be obedient.
When Mrs. Liu was about to say something, her direct eyes suddenly saw the scarf around Shen Qingqing's neck.
This Shen Qingqing is afraid of the cold, so you also put a scarf, this scarf is white with pink and cyan, the color is bright and unassuming, taking advantage of her skin tone is very good-looking.
Mrs. Liu is also a person who loves beauty, so she couldn't help but say, "What is this around your neck?" How come I've never seen one? ”
Shen Qingqing took off his scarf: "Mrs. Liu, this is a scarf I knit myself, it is very warm to put on my neck in winter, and it can also be used as a decoration, I came to the town today to sell scarves." ”
Mrs. Liu took the scarf in her hand and looked at it carefully, which was simply lovely: "This thing is really good-looking, really good-looking." ”
After she finished speaking, she smiled again: "Qingqing girl, I also want to buy a few if there is any extra in your house, you don't know that my man is very afraid of the cold in winter, and now he doesn't dare to get out of bed every day to buy this thing and put it on his neck to protect against the cold." ”
Of course, Shen Qingqing was willing, and hurriedly put the scarf on Mrs. Liu's neck: "Since you have said so, I will give you this scarf first, and then bring those scarves over the next time I send glutinous rice dumplings to the house, do you think it's okay?" ”
"Very good, very good." Mrs. Liu nodded hurriedly, and the smile on her face never disappeared.
The boss looked at him and was stunned, originally thinking that Shen Qingqing, a village woman, would not know such a rich person, but he didn't expect that he would talk so happily now.
This business is the grass on the wall, and it will fall wherever the wind blows.
The boss couldn't help but be enthusiastic when he saw Shen Qingqing like this: "Alas, you see, it turns out that they are all acquaintances, I see that although this girl is dressed plainly, her face is radiant, which makes people look very happy." ”
Shen Qingqing shook his head, this person is really transformed.
Mrs. Liu came to get the custom-made clothes, and left again in less than half an hour, and when she left, she didn't forget to tell Shen Qingqing not to forget to send the scarf over next time.
"Look this way, these clothes are the most fashionable at the moment, and they are very good for your complexion."
As soon as Mrs. Liu left, the boss's attitude changed very quickly, and he nodded and couldn't wait to offer Shen Qingqing above his head.
Shen Qingqing is not a person who is embarrassed, the previous things were all as if they had not happened, and he went over to look at it with a smile on his face and lifted his skirt.
The boss introduced her to the most popular style this year, although the clothes style is open and closed, although it looks good, but Shen Qingqing always feels that it will not be popular next year, and it will be a waste of money to buy it.
She touched the fabric of the dress and whispered, "Boss, I want to buy some simple and beautiful styles, and I don't mind too much if the style is popular or not." ”
It was the first time the boss heard such a request, and he was stunned. The reaction was also clever, and he led Shen Qingqing to another place.
Those clothes couldn't hold up the shape when they were hung on the hanger, and they couldn't tell whether they looked good or not, but Shen Qingqing took a fancy to a piece of clothing when he looked at it.
I saw that the dress was blue, with white flowers falling on it, like white clouds floating in the sky, and the cuffs and neckline were woven with white hair, which looked very delicate.
"Boss, I want both the yellow dress and this one just now."
"Come on, I'll wrap you up." When the boss just wanted to go and hold the kraft paper, Shen Qingqing looked down at his clothes.
It's been a busy day today, and there are large water stains on the snow, and I don't know where some of the mud has come from.
Simply Shen Qingqing directly put on those new clothes, she was wearing the blue and white flowers, when she walked out of the fitting room, the boss was in place, and the next second she hurriedly stepped forward and didn't know how to speak.
"You don't know how good you look in this dress, the moment I came out just now, I really thought it was a fairy descending to earth."
"Is it as exaggerated as you say?"
Shen Qingqing was happy in her heart, and looked at it in front of the bronze mirror.
She has indeed lost a lot of weight recently, her body is not as light as a swallow but she is finally not so strong, she looks like a slender woman, her skin is extremely white, her facial features are bright and generous, and a wooden hairpin above her hair is even more solemn, and she has a little more simple and dusty beauty.
Shen Qingqing liked it more and more, thinking that although Xiao Douding's clothes were warm, this was also last year, so he picked a few more clothes in the ready-to-wear store together, and after paying two silvers, Shen Qingqing returned to the village with a large bag and a small bag.
This time, not only did he return with a full load, but he also bought a lot of new clothes, and Shen Qingqing felt that his waist was straight when he walked.
Finally out of the sun, the broken mouth of the mother-in-law naturally couldn't be idle, holding peanuts and melon seeds in her hands gathered at the entrance of the village and in the east and west of the house: "Oh, don't you know that the widow in the next village, a few days ago, ......"
A man was talking, but his eyes were in the distance and he didn't know what he saw, and the next words were swallowed into his stomach.
The curiosity of the others also followed her look, and this time several women with broken mouths all stood up.
A woman came from the entrance of the village, who was very beautiful and full of luxury.
"Yo, which lady of a big family is coming to our village?" The broken-mouthed woman hurriedly greeted her as she spoke, but when she stepped forward, she realized that this person was none other than Shen Qingqing.
Several people gasped again: "Qingqing, how are you dressing up more and more now, we thought it was the wife of a big family just now." ”
"Yes, you see that your current Anning Village can't accommodate you."
"Look at what you're talking about." Shen Qingqing shook his head.
Although she was very happy to listen to, she didn't take it to heart.
