Chapter 43: A woman disguises herself as a man
The rivers and lakes on the tip of the tongue are doing good business.
Lin Xiaoyan found a bad drawback, there is her identity, a thirteen-year-old girl, opening a shop by the sea alone, it is indeed not a very appropriate thing.
In particular, her shop is not far from Qinglouwo, and in the second wave of diners, she smelled the smell of rouge gouache on several men.
The kind of smell that can stimulate hormones of the opposite sex is definitely not for serious women.
If she doesn't change her outfit quickly, in case, the next wave of guests who come to the restaurant to eat will treat this place as a green building, and her troubles will be hit.
In addition, she also needs some pen and ink bookkeeping and a menu, after all, not everyone can eat the dishes made by the God of Food, and they must be limited.
Leaving the "rivers and lakes on the tip of the tongue", Lin Xiaoyan walked to the ready-to-wear store, this time the owner of the ready-to-wear store saw Lin Xiaoyan, and walked out with a smile to greet her: "When I got up in the morning, I saw magpies chirping on the trees again. ”
Lin Xiaoyan tugged at the corners of her mouth, thinking: This person is really powerful, the first time he wore shabby patch clothes, he looked arrogant, for fear that others would not be able to afford it, and now he bought a few sets of discounted clothes, that's all.
Oh, profiteers!
Obviously, the owner of the ready-to-wear store didn't know what Lin Xiaoyan said in his heart, and said with a smile: "Little girl, what are you going to buy this time?" ”
"Two well-fitting men's outfits for autumn and winter." Lin Xiaoyan asked.
"Huh?" The owner of the ready-to-wear store asked with a look of surprise.
"Didn't you?" Lin Xiaoyan asked.
"Yes, yes."
After the owner of the ready-to-wear store finished speaking, he took Lin Xiaoyan towards the men's clothes.
There are obviously not as many clothes here as women's clothes, which is enough for Lin Xiaoyan.
After choosing two random gray-blue and light purple clothes and a black and dark red cloak, she asked, "Do you have any clothes that resemble cooking aprons?" ”
Hearing that, the owner of the ready-to-wear store looked a little sluggish, and didn't understand what Lin Xiaoyan was talking about, Lin Xiaoyan said: "How can this place have a chef's uniform in the new era." ”
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Xiaoyan remembered that Lin Xiaohua's female popularity was not bad, so she bought some skirts for Lin Xiaohua and Lin Zhaodi, and two navy blue fabrics before leaving.
When Lin Xiaoyan bought pen, ink and paper, it was almost noon, and she hurriedly walked towards the "rivers and lakes on the tip of her tongue".
As soon as she walked to the door, Lin Xiaohua opened the door, she saw a fair-skinned young man, her expression was stunned, and asked, "Who is the son looking for?" ”
"Sister, it's me, Lin Xiaoyan." Lin Xiaoyan walked into the house with the packing bag and said, "Come over and see what good things I bought for you." ”
Lin Zhaodi put down the work in her hand and immediately walked towards Lin Xiaoyan, and when Lin Xiaoyan took out a light blue Luo skirt, the whole person was dumbfounded.
"What a beautiful dress." Lin Zhaodi took it with both hands, I was in the palm of my hand, and the soft fabric was much more comfortable than hers.
After a moment's thought, the smile on her lips retracted.
Lin Xiaoyan did make a lot of money today, what does this have to do with her.
She is just Lin Xiaoyan's cousin, and she can get ten taels of silver a month, although his father's income is more than a year, but compared with Lin Xiaoyan's income, it is still a lot less.
Now with such a beautiful dress, she can only look at it.
"Cousin, if you like it, I bought these dresses and gave them to you and Sister Xiaohua." Lin Xiaoyan said with a smile.
"Sister, you bought me a lot of clothes last time, so give them all to my cousin." Lin Xiaohua humbly gave way.
"Sister, you can choose any one, the main thing is that I still have important things to trouble you." Lin Xiaoyan took Lin Xiaohua's hand and begged.
At this time, Lin Zhaodi, who was standing on the side, had a strange idea in her heart, and pinched out many folds in the Luo skirt in her hand.
"Sister, just say anything about it, sister will definitely help you." She knows Lin Xiaoyan's character better than anyone else, from childhood to adulthood, when she needs help in trouble, she will be like this.
"I know that my sister is the best." Lin Xiaoyan put her arms around Lin Xiaohua's neck, kissed her fiercely, and then took a pen and drew the apron that the chef needed to wear on paper.
"Sister, can you make such clothes?" Lin Xiaoyan asked urgently.
Lin Xiaohua took it and looked at it for a long time, frowned and asked, "Sister, are you sure it's clothes?" ”
Lin Xiaohua has studied female red from the people in the village, and she has never seen this style of clothes, with two rows of buttons in the middle of the narrow sleeved dress, and a pocket on her stomach.
This is the first time in her life that she has seen such a fancy dress.
"yes." Lin Xiaoyan said: "Sister, don't you think it's particularly inconvenient for us to wear such clothes to cook?" But it's much more convenient to wear clothes with narrow sleeves. ”
Lin Xiaohua looked at Lin Xiaoyan and felt that what she said made sense, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take it upstairs and try it." ”
"Thank you, sister, it's cloth here." Lin Xiaoyan handed the two newly bought pieces of cloth to Lin Xiaohua and said.
Lin Zhaodi, who was standing on the side, followed and said, "I'll go up and help my cousin." ”
"Trouble cousin." Lin Xiaoyan replied with a smile.
At this moment, when Lin Zhaodi turned to leave, a disgust flashed in her eyes, and she went upstairs with her new clothes and said, "I don't know if it's the cheap clothes I bought there, hum!" ”
After that, Lin Zhaodi threw the five or six Luo skirts she was holding on the ground and stepped on her feet.
"Cousin, what are you doing?" Lin Xiaohua hurriedly put down the cloth in her hand, stepped forward to pick up Luo's skirt and asked.
"Cousin, don't be deceived by Lin Xiaoyan, look at her, she has made a lot of money today, so she will buy us these." Lin Zhaodi said unconvinced: "Did you see when she gave money to Min Huaiye in the morning?" Twenty taels of gold, without blinking, just give it when we say it, but what about us, after we are busy, what do we get? ”
Lin Xiaohua sighed helplessly, this time Lin Xiaoyan bought Luo Qing is much better looking than the last time, she picked up the Luo skirt on the ground and folded it, then opened the wardrobe and took out the previous Luo skirt, and said in contrast: "Cousin, look at it, two Luo skirts, take one beautiful." ”
Lin Zhaodi did not hesitate at all, and stretched out her hand to Lin Xiaoyan's newly bought Luo skirt.
At this time, Lin Xiaohua said: "These are our sisters, who bought me dresses for the first time, and these wardrobes, beds, and chairs were given by Min Huaiye." ”
"What about the delivery? He is willing to send it himself, did Lin Xiaoyan force her to send it, he can't give him twenty taels of gold just because of these cousins. Lin Zhaodi was still not convinced, and even felt that it was a matter of course for Min Huaiye to send something to Lin Xiaoyan.
"Cousin, don't you still understand what happened to Song Shishi? We women want to be independent if they don't want to be beaten, not to mention that Min Huaiye and Xiaoyan are not husband and wife, and it is normal for them to settle accounts with each other. Lin Xiaohua enlightened.
Lin Zhaodi didn't think so, she felt that Min Huaiye shouldn't accept Lin Xiaoyan's money, he should pay it in vain.
"Cousin, if you don't think there's any point, after you put your dress away, we'll get to work." Lin Xiaohua took out half of the wardrobe and said to her.
Lin Zhaodi pursed her lips, and reluctantly put Lin Xiaohua's folded clothes into the closet.
Lin Xiaoyan downstairs looked at the signboard erected outside the door, the shadow under it was getting shorter and shorter, and it seemed that it was already noon, so he would cook the fire and steam rice.
Because it is an open door for business, it must not be like when I was in Niutian Village, where dry rice was mixed with braised rice, artichoke and other foods.
The rice she wants to steam must be soft and chewy in her mouth.
While the two sisters were upstairs, Lin Xiaoyan entered the space spirit tree and dug out most of the water soaked in the fairy spirit fruit, and then Lin Xiaoyan poured all of them into the water tank.
In this way, she will not have to worry about not having the water after the fairy fruit is soaked in the future when cooking.
After doing this, Lin Xiaoyan took out the diluted fairy fruit water and steamed the rice, and it didn't take long for a strange fragrance to spread out of Lin Xiaoyan's kitchen.
"Cousin, do you smell it? That scent? Lin Zhaodi put down the needle and thread in her hand, took Lin Xiaohua's hand and said.
"I smell it, it's Xiao Yan cooking." Lin Xiaohua smiled at her aunt and was very pleased.
She has been married for three years, her sister helps the family cook every day, and her rapid improvement in cooking skills has even convinced her, her former sister always likes to hide behind her, seeking her protection, and now her sister is strong enough to protect herself.
Thinking of this, the corners of Lin Xiaohua's mouth couldn't help but turn up.
Her sister has finally become her pride.
"Cousin, don't you think it's weird?" Lin Zhaodi asked reluctantly: "You say, did Lin Xiaoyan cook so fragrant before?" The scent can waft to a boat by the sea. ”
"When Lin Xiaoyan went out just now, I went to the beach, and with my foot strength, it took me a long time to get there, and she just burned the fire and cooked to attract such a man...... Cousin, you said that Lin Xiaoyan couldn't be possessed by some fox demon. ”
"Otherwise, how can this chain of strange things be explained?"
"Don't say anything else, have you really seen such clothes, cousin?" Lin Zhaodi pointed to the drawings drawn by Lin Xiaoyan and said.
After hearing these words, many doubts also rose in Lin Xiaohua's heart, the drawings that Lin Xiaoyan gave her were indeed the first time she had seen them.
However, once Lin Xiaoyan told herself that she met a fairy in a dream, and she taught her many ways to cook.
Could it be that this dress is the clothes worn by the immortal?
Lin Xiaohua nodded, still refusing to believe Lin Xiaoyan's statement that she was possessed by a fox demon.
"Cousin, if you want to feel tired, go to bed and rest for a while." Lin Xiaohua snatched the needle and thread in her hand and said, "I'll do this." ”
For her, whether Lin Xiaoyan is a fox demon or not, it doesn't matter to Lin Xiaohua, because it is now Lin Xiaoyan who took her out of the demon's home, if Lin Xiaoyan is really a fox demon, it is also a good fox demon, she calls herself a sister, and she should help her.
"Cousin, why don't you understand what I'm saying?" Lin Zhaodi grabbed her and said: "Why don't we go to the temple and invite a senior monk to come and see, if Lin Xiaoyan is really eaten by the fox demon, we will kill her to avenge Xiaoyan's sister." ”
"Lin Zhaodi, what are you talking nonsense?" Lin Xiaohua said angrily: "You can just talk to me about these words, you must not mention them to the second person, if you don't like to stay here, I will go down and tell Sister Xiaoyan, let her give you the money, and you can go back with the silver." ”
