"Seventy-seven! Seventy-seven! Can we take less gold first? Miao Miao pretended to tidy up in front of the mirror as she anxiously called out to the system in her head.

[I'll try... Miaomiao, can only be taken kilogram by kilogram. 】

"Hurry up, bring me a kilo first! No, I'll count... A tael of gold is ten taels of silver, and two kilograms of silver. Miao Miao then pretended to take money from her purse, but was actually receiving money from the system.

"Here you go." Miaomiao handed four taels of gold to Xiao Er, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

"Four taels of gold? Wait a minute, I'll go to the shopkeeper to help you find money. "Xiao Er is only responsible for selling goods, and they have no right to handle such things as collecting money.

Miao Miao followed Xiao Er downstairs, and the level of the shopkeeper was not much better than Xiao Er, and Miao Miao was still there when he went downstairs.

Seeing that he hadn't finished it yet, Miaomiao walked around downstairs and was surprised to find that there were actually embroidered shoes for sale. Miao Miao was very surprised, the original shoes were all made of green lady black. and Gu Nianyuan's father's shoes are also made by Qingniang.

Miao Miao knew that most of the people in the village made their own shoes, and the men were just men. As far as Miao Miao knows, this dynasty is similar to the ancient times where they are, and there is also a woman's foot that cannot be seen by anyone other than her husband.

She also thought that shoes would not be sold because of this rule. So even if I feel that the cloth shoes on my feet are a little unworthy of the clothes on my body, I still want to pay attention to it.

But... Why are the shoes sold in this store so big? Miao Miao picked up two different pairs of shoes with some curiosity and compared, that guy, the right one is tight, there is no superfluity at all.

Even if it's too much in one size, the worker who makes the shoe must have obsessive-compulsive disorder. Miao Miao silently said in her heart.

"Miss, this is the fourteen taels I found for you." The shopkeeper finally figured out the money, Xiao Er handed the rest of the money to Miaomiao, and gave a silver ticket of ten taels and four taels of silver intimately. “

"Miss, do you want to buy embroidered shoes? The embroidered shoes in our shop are also carefully made, and you can see how delicate the embroidery is. And this pair of pearl shoes, the pearls on them were salvaged from the South China Sea? After looking for change, seeing Miaomiao looking at the shoes, Xiao Er introduced the shoes to Miaomiao very enthusiastically.

“… Why are these shoes all one size? Are there any other sizes? Sighing in her heart for Xiao Er's dedication, Miaomiao asked the question in her heart.

"Sorry, we only have this size. This is a standard size. Hearing Miao Miao ask, a trace of surprise flashed in Xiao Er's eyes, obviously not understanding why this guest would ask such a question.

However, because of the superb arithmetic shown by Miaomiao before, Xiao Er found a good reason for Miaomiao. He felt that this young lady must be the child of someone who was dedicated to academics, so he was so generous and proficient in arithmetic.

I don't even know this, I'm just concentrating on academics, not popular things. It's definitely not those who are from the countryside or the nouveau riche, so they don't know it.

Nowadays, there is still a lot of respect for learned people, so Xiao Er patiently explained to Miaomiao.

"Miss concentrates on academics and may not know much, this size is prescribed by Concubine De in the palace, she thinks that women's feet should not be too big. This size is just right. ”

True. From the countryside. Although the nouveau riche has two kinds of soil buns that are all accounted for, he doesn't understand what Xiao Er means by concentrating on academics, but as a curious baby, he sees Xiao Er's attitude so kind. She couldn't help but ask again.

"But this kind of thing is not something that people can control, what about those who are born with big feet? Can't you buy shoes and have to do it yourself? ”

Xiao Er chuckled, "Miss is wrong, how can the size of this foot not be controlled." As he spoke, he lowered his voice and motioned for Miaomiao to come closer.

Seeing Miaomiao approaching, he looked around to see that no one noticed this place before he whispered. "Those who are born big, when they think of a standard size, just wrap it in a cloth at home to prevent it from growing. When you wait for the growth period to let go, you will say that you are born. ”

“？？！ Is that okay? "Isn't this another way of binding your feet? Miao Miao was shocked and angry when she learned the truth.

The king of Chu starved to death in the palace with a thin waist, this concubine Niangniang was really evil, and she has always been a woman who is more difficult for women. As a harem mother, her every move has been noticed by the world, and even if she does this, she has to guide the women of the world, which is really too much.

Now it has not yet spread to the people, and it is only popular among dignitaries and women. But Miao Miao feels that this day is not far away.

"However, I see that Miss is naturally beautiful, and it should be just right to wear this size, do you want to try it inside first?" Seeing that Miaomiao's face was very unsightly after listening to her words, Xiao Er smiled while changing the topic.

"Just this pair, I'll try it." Unintentionally angering others, Miaomiao took a deep breath, took a pair of shoes and tried them out.

Because of the rule that the foot cannot be leaked by a foreign man, unlike modern times, it is also necessary to try on shoes in a closed compartment. The details of this store are not only thoughtful in the booth where the May Day imperfect shoe fitting is made, but you can also smell a fresh fragrance as soon as you enter.

If it was before, Miaomiao would have sighed at the wisdom and service attitude of the ancients, but at this time, she was not in the mood at all. The mind is full of what Xiao Er said about binding his feet.

In fact, in the memory of the original body, the constraints of women in the past were much smaller than now. Twenty years ago, a woman could take the initiative to mention and leave the future without delaying remarriage, and others would not say anything.

But over the years, it has gradually become not, although the countryside is better, but the changes are also obvious. There are even widows who remarry and commit suicide because they can't stand the guidance.

Miao Miao recalled the content of the original book again, because Concubine De Niangniang pays attention to virtue and virtue, and women should take their husbands as the sky, so slowly everyone takes her as a benchmark and thinks that such a woman is a good woman. The woman, on the other hand, needs to be criticized.

I don't know if this result is what Concubine De wants to see, maybe she just wants to win a good name for herself, and she doesn't want to shackle the woman. But what she did did slowly restrain many women. invisibly put on the shackles of "female virtue" for women all over the world.

At the beginning, the family members of those officials used her as a benchmark in order to please her and curry favor with the imperial power. Up and down, slowly everyone began to learn from her. And most of those men, apparently, are happy to see this.

Later, Concubine De's son ascended the throne, and she became the queen mother. As the most noble woman in the dynasty, the people below will look up to her.

And the second prince is a filial one, although Lu Nanxi is the queen, he also has a noble status. But she will never go against the Queen Mother, but also for the sake of fame, she is the first person to learn from the Queen Mother.

The queen and the queen mother both expressed their positions like this, although these bad things will not be written in the book, but Miaomiao can also think of how serious the oppression of women after the second prince ascended the throne.

Miao Miao looked at the new shoes that had just been put on her feet, and the delicate embroidered fit made the shoes look beautiful. However, although Miao Miao was just good enough to wear these shoes, and her feet were the so-called standard size, she was not only not happy but very sad.

But it's useless to be sad, there are only three princes under the knees of the saint today. The eldest prince is stupid and stupid, and the third prince only knows how to eat, drink and have fun all day long, and he is an out-and-out gentleman. The second prince is also considered to be the tallest among the short, and if he is replaced by another prince to ascend the throne, not to mention that women are oppressed, it is possible to lose the country.

When there is a war, not only women, but also all the people have a hard time.

"Miss, do you need any help?" Xu is Miaomiao has been in it for too long, and Xiao Er asked tentatively at the door.

"It's okay, I'm going out." Miaomiao responded to the harmony, quickly retracted her expression, and walked out with a change of shoes.

"That's it! How much. Miao Miao didn't have the heart to do anything else, so she said directly to Xiao Er.

"Four taels of silver." It's quite a coincidence, Miaomiao has exactly four taels of silver in her hand. Miaomiao handed the money to Xiao Er and wrapped her original shoes. After saying a word to Xiao Er, he left.

Coming out of the Splendid Pavilion, Miaomiao's whole body changed. The already beautiful appearance is even more stunning when lined with exquisite clothes. From the eyes of the people around her who frequently looked at her, you can see the lethality.

Miao Miao frowned, ignoring these glances. Directly carrying things to the bank, when he arrived at the bank, he directly exchanged the remaining eight kilograms of gold for silver tickets, a total of one hundred and sixty taels.

Stuffing the exchanged silver ticket into her purse, Miaomiao walked quickly towards the Golden Jade Pavilion.

As soon as she entered the Golden Jade Pavilion, Miao Miao was dazzled by the dazzling array of gold and silver jewelry. But one is that the system has been urging, and because of what happened just now, I was not in a good mood, and I couldn't raise my interest in hanging out.

So ignoring Xiao Er's enthusiastic recommendation, Miao Miao went straight to the point. "Do you have any Lantian jade jewelry here?"

Jade ornaments are afraid of being damaged, so the store is specially put away. It will only be taken out if a guest asks for it.

"Miss, you're really the right person, we just got a batch of Lantian jade jewelry yesterday, you wait a minute, I'll bring it to you."

Soon, Xiao Er carefully carried a tray and put it on the counter in front of Miaomiao.

"Miss, look, this is the jade hairpin of Lantian jade, and these two styles are very beautiful. There is also the jade pendant of Lantian jade, and this bracelet, which has this pattern, and ......"

Looking at the various Lantian jade jewelry in front of her, Miaomiao was a little surprised and a little curious. "Qiqi, I think these are all Lantian jade, is there only one 35,000? Why? I think it's all about the same, huh? Can't you exchange them all? “

[Other tests are under 10,000, only a few thousand.] Only one bracelet is thirty-five thousand. The price of the same jade material is also different, and the reason is too complicated, if you want to know, I will explain it to you later. 】

The system is a little anxious, [It's better for you to buy this first, we're not sure if we can afford it?] This Lantian jade is also very expensive on your page. We only have one hundred and sixty taels in our hands. I don't know if it's enough. The 35,000 I am talking about is the second bracelet on your left, how much does it cost? 】

"How much does this bracelet cost?" Miaomiao picked up the target as prompted by the system and asked.

"This bracelet is one hundred and fifty taels."

Hearing Xiao Er's answer, Miao Miao breathed a sigh of relief, it was too hanging, and it was almost not enough.

"I'm going to want this, wrap it up for me."

"Okay, wait a minute. Pay here. Xiao Er was a little surprised by Miaomiao's vigorous and resolute behavior, but he still greeted him very professionally.

After paying the money, Xiao Er may think that Miaomiao's customers are generous and refreshing, and have been recommending other jewelry to her. Seeing Xiao Er's intentions, Miaomiao, who only had a total of twenty taels left in her hand, was very uncomfortable and hurriedly left the Golden Jade Pavilion.

Bracelets are relatively easy to break, so Miaomiao directly received it into the system and handed it to Qiqi for her to exchange it for points directly.

Looking at the 35,000 transaction coins to be collected in the system, Miao Miao's mood is finally better. Carrying things while wandering around casually, while looking at the surrounding scenery from time to time, Miao Miao didn't notice that someone behind her was already eyeing her.
