Chapter 20 The Owner of a Garment Store
"Yes, sir." Plainclothes Catcher quickly put down the Ai Ye on his shoulder with a helpless face, and respectfully walked up to Lin Xiaoyan and said, "Thank you, Mrs." β
Lin Xiaoyan thought that Min Huaiye was joking with herself, but she didn't expect him to be serious, if the Li family insisted on selling her at a high price in the future, maybe he was a good choice.
The premise is how she wants Min Huaiye to help herself willingly.
If he really wants to marry him, it will be troublesome, after all, she does not belong to this era, and now she is suddenly here because of an accident.
"Min Huaiye, when did I say I was going to marry you." Ducilitously looked at the three big men in front of him, and said angrily.
"It's not a matter of time." Min Huaiye said confidently: "A talented person like me who has passed the examination at the age of thirteen, not only is he handsome and handsome, but he is not short of money, his conduct is upright, and he is also very infatuated, I am afraid it will be difficult to find a second one with a lantern in the world." β
"But how do I remember that someone came to the door to propose marriage, didn't give a dowry, and was beaten out." Lin Xiaoyan rolled her eyes and said.
"Sister, you said, he came to our house to propose marriage?"
Lin Xiaohua was surprised and delighted, she was really afraid that her sister would miss Min Huaiye, after all, a talent like Min Huaiye, let alone Niutian Village, it would be difficult to find a second one even in Changdu City.
If he is admitted to the Jinshi next year, he may not be able to go to the capital to become a big official, then her sister will not be the official's wife, and she may even be the wife of the emperor.
Then their family will really glorify their ancestors.
"He didn't come, it was Mrs. Zhou who came." Lin Xiaoyan said.
Lin Xiaohua nodded, and said again: "Sister, in fact, I think Ah Ye is still quite good, you see that although Zhao Guangzhu gave our mother ten taels of silver as a dowry, but I washed my face with tears all day long, and I was almost forced by them to pick up guests...... In contrast, Min Huaiye is much more reliable. β
Speaking of this, Lin Xiaohua glanced at Min Huaiye, and continued in Lin Xiaoyan's ear in a low voice: "Sister, I heard that people who read have to save face, and besides, he has been famous since he was a child, and he will not let you do anything unseemly, otherwise his career will not be completely ruined." β
"I see, if it really doesn't work, you just cook raw rice and mature rice, and then my mother will have nothing to say."
"Sister, you're so right." Min Huaiye didn't know when he appeared in front of the two, took Lin Xiaoyan's hand and said, "It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, let's go to the cave room tonight." β
After speaking, Min Huaiye accidentally found a red crescent birthmark on the back of Lin Xiaoyan's hand, and he was stunned, he remembered that half a year ago, when he left the cave with Lin Xiaoyan in his arms, the back of her hand was very clean.
Don't......
Lin Xiaoyan found that he was staring at the back of his hand, and the big finger of his right hand was about to touch the red crescent birthmark, so he hurriedly retracted his hand and said angrily: "Master Min, you are also a scholar, you should have heard the phrase 'men and women do not kiss'." β
"Madam, forgive me for being ignorant, I've only heard that 'a moment of Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold'." Min Huaiye said with a flamboyant mouth.
Suddenly, a puff of smoke drifted towards the location of the three of them, and the smell happened to be caused by the burning of mugwort leaves.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
This rich fragrance of mugwort leaves wafted in, Lin Xiaohua kept coughing, and her eyes were choked with smoke and many tears.
"Sister, let's go out to eat first, buy clothes and quilts, and when we come back later, they will almost finish smoking." Lin Xiaoyan suggested.
After that, Min Huaiye followed the two sisters to the street together, and also ordered three plainclothes people to arrest them quickly, and they were not allowed to leave until they returned.
Subsequently, the three of them came to the ready-to-wear street in Changdu City, Lin Xiaohua looked at the finished Luo skirts and long shirts, and was a little anxious, pulling Lin Xiaoyan and saying: "Sister, the clothes here must be very good, I ...... It's nice for me to dress like this, let's not buy it. β
Lin Xiaoyan looked at the timid Lin Xiaohua, the inferiority complex that rarely walked into the market, Lin Xiaoyan felt very distressed, the status of women in ancient times was too humble.
A sentence of the parents' order and the words of the matchmaker will ruin a woman's life.
Women like the new era can not only study, but also take the university entrance examination, graduate examination, doctoral examination, obtain countless degrees, or obtain countless honors.
Although she is a cook, she also has a senior chef qualification certificate, a senior nutritionist qualification certificate, and she is also a master's student who graduated from the School of Public Health of Beijing University.
She doesn't want her future "sister" to be a woman who only knows how to rely on men.
"Sister, don't be afraid, I have me." Lin Xiaoyan comforted, walked into a ready-to-wear store, took a cyan Luo skirt and asked, "How do you sell this long skirt?" β
The boss who had just finished buying clothes, heard Lin Xiaoyan's question, the corners of his mouth hooked up a flattering smile, and said: "Ordinary clothes are two hundred copper plates, a better ......"
Before the boss finished speaking, he saw Lin Xiaohua, who was barefoot, dressed like a beggar, his face sank, and he immediately said: "Poor ghost, don't touch my clothes, be careful of getting dirty, you can't afford to pay for it." β
Lin Xiaohua was already afraid, but at this moment, she was looked up and down by the boss's disgusted eyes, she had no self-confidence in her head, her head was about to be buried in her chest, and every time she heard the boss say a word, she took a step back.
At this time, the whole person was forced to a corner, where many ready-to-wear clothes were piled up, and after Lin Xiaohua bumped into them, they all fell to the ground.
"Hey...... Ouch, I said you are poor ghosts, you can't afford to buy clothes, don't bump into my clothes, they ...... They're all expensive. The shopkeeper threw Lin Xiaohua, who fell to the ground, aside, walked forward and picked up the clothes on the ground in pain, and said bitterly.
"Right...... I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Lin Xiaohua apologized repeatedly to blame herself.
"Sisterβ"
Lin Xiaoyan was very dissatisfied with his approach, and suddenly saw that those clothes were written next to them for sale at half price, and when he was not paying attention, he stepped forward and picked them up and hid them behind him, and said again: "Anyway, how do you want us to compensate." β
"Compensation, can you afford it? These clothes of mine are made of fine fabrics, and poor ghosts like you, let alone compensation, I am afraid that I have never even seen them. The boss held his clothes in his hand and said viciously.
"Listen to what you mean, we don't have to pay for these clothes." Lin Xiaoyan pulled Lin Xiaohua behind her and said, "Thank you, boss, let's go." β
"Stop, little beggar, did I say let you go?" The boss clapped his hands, and two men immediately appeared in the ready-to-wear store, and the boss ordered: "Sell them to Ya Po, and the other party can give as much as you want...... Hmph, if you dare to stain my clothes, I will make them slaves for life. β
"Haha......" Lin Xiaoyan smiled, the strange laughter made the boss's heart tremble, and pointed at Lin Xiaoyan and said, "Little beggar, what are you laughing at?" β
