Chapter 123: Chasing the Cloth
Chen Xiaoxiao thought about it for a long time, but decided not to buy silk, and now that she doesn't have much money, she still shouldn't spend it indiscriminately.
She said to the shopkeeper, "Then I'll buy these pieces and choose them, and I won't buy silk." ”
The shopkeeper regretted that she finally met a person who asked about silk and satin, but she didn't buy it.
Forget it, not everyone can afford it, and it has to be decided according to their own situation.
"Is that all there is to it? Do you want to buy anything else? ”
Chen Xiaoxiao shook her head, "Don't buy it, these are enough, how much do you calculate?" ”
"If you take four horses, then it's four or eighty."
"Can't you have one, two, one? You see, I'm buying four horses at once! "This cotton cloth is a full twenty cents more expensive than when I was in the fiefdom.
"This is already the lowest price, confiscate you more."
Chen Xiaoxiao said simply: "Just one or two horses, give me four or two, I will take it away if I can, if I can't, then I will go shopping elsewhere." ”
After speaking, Chen Xiaoxiao was about to leave.
When the shopkeeper saw that Chen Xiaoxiao really looked like she was leaving, she hurriedly said, "Okay!" Four taels is four taels, I didn't expect you to be a little girl, and you can bargain like this, I'm afraid of you. ”
Chen Xiaoxiao was happy in her heart, but she didn't show it.
Pretending to be reluctant, he counted out all the silver and handed it to the shopkeeper, "Na, this is four taels of silver, you can take a look." ”
The shopkeeper took the silver in her hand and said, "Okay, you go slowly." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao walked out of the cloth village after taking the cloth.
The shopkeeper shouted to her enthusiastically: "I bought it, come back next time!" ”
Chen Xiaoxiao nodded, "Okay." ”
She went back the way she came, and when she went upstairs, she found that Murong Sheng had already returned.
"Where?" Murong Sheng put down the tea in his hand and asked.
Chen Xiaoxiao put down the cloth and said, "The concubine went to buy a few pieces of cloth, and I want to make you a few more underwear." ”
Mu Rongsheng had a headache, "Didn't you just make one, you still have one in your hand that is almost finished, a total of three, what does this king want so many underwear for?" ”
Chen Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Isn't winter coming?" The concubine wanted to do a few more, and wait until she pulled some cotton and came over to make a few more. ”
"Don't be so tired, there are many ready-to-wear stores outside, and this king can wear it and buy it outside."
Chen Xiaoxiao disagreed, "How can I buy underwear outside?" It's better to be a concubine for you! ”
"This king is afraid that you will be too tired, and it will be late at night, and you will stay up late to light the lamp and sew clothes, which is not good for your eyes."
Chen Xiaoxiao hurriedly made a promise, "The concubine will not do it at night in the future, but will do it during the day." ”
"Whatever you want." After Murong Sheng finished speaking, he stood up and walked out, as long as it was not an excessive request, he would follow her, this little girl, it seemed that she had such a hobby.
Chen Xiaoxiao hurriedly followed with the cloth, "Is the prince ready to go back?" ”
"Hmm." Murong Sheng replied calmly and quickened his pace.
Chen Xiaoxiao's legs were relatively short, and she trotted all the way to follow Murong Sheng.
When Murong Sheng passed by the shopkeeper, he gave him the key and a piece of silver, and said, "No need to look for it." ”
The innkeeper was very happy, and hurriedly called Xiao Er to come out, "Hurry up and prepare a horse for the guest officer!" ”
Xiao Er recognized Murong Sheng and Chen Xiaoxiao, and ran to pull out Jiechen, "Guest officer, your horses are fed with good feed on their backs, you are very energetic." ”
Murong Sheng threw a silver ingot to Xiao Er.
Xiao Er took the silver beautifully, "Guest officer, come back next time!" ”
Chen Xiaoxiao looked at Murong Sheng and asked, "Lord Wang, what should I do with these cloths?" ”
Murong Sheng looked at the things in her hand, took them all, and tied them all to the back of the horse's buttocks, two on each side.
After doing this, he helped Chen Xiaoxiao to get on the horse, and then went up again, "Drive!" ”
Jiechen rushed out, Murong Sheng frowned, and pulled the reins.
Jiechen immediately walked slowly, and now in the middle of the city, running too fast will inevitably trample on the crowd.
After getting out of the city gate, Jiechen couldn't hold back anymore, at a fast speed. Rush to the barracks.
When they arrived at the barracks, all the tents in the barracks had been dismantled and ready to go.
Wang Decai was at the front of the line and came up to greet the two.
"Lord Wang, Master Chen are back?"
Murong Sheng dismounted, and after helping Chen Xiaoxiao off the horse, he handed the reins to Wang Decai.
"Are you all ready?"
Wang Decai bowed down and said, "Back to the prince, I'll wait for you." ”
Murong Sheng bowed, "Then let's go." ”
"Yes."
Wang Decai stood up straight and gestured towards Sun Qiao and the others.
Sun Qiao and the others understood and immediately ordered the soldiers to set off.
Wang Decai came to Chen Xiaoxiao and said, "Master Chen, please come with Lu Nucai." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao didn't know why, she hugged the unloaded cloth in her arms and followed the princess.
Coming to a carriage, Xin Luohou waited in front of the carriage, waiting for Chen Xiaoxiao to come and lift the curtain of the carriage.
Only then did Chen Xiaoxiao know that the princess had prepared a carriage for him, and she said to the princess, "Thank you." ”
The prince waved his hand absently, "You're welcome, please get in the carriage!" ”。
Chen Xiaoxiao stepped on a stool and got into the carriage, and Xin Luo followed Chen Xiaoxiao into the carriage, and the carriage walked in the middle of the team.
Inside the carriage, Xin Luo saw the cloth that Chen Xiaoxiao was holding and asked, "Master, last time you said that you would pull a piece of cloth for the slave maid to make clothes, does it still count?" ”
Chen Xiaoxiao looked at Xin Luo in surprise, "Is it because your clothes don't fit?" ”
Xin Luo thought to himself, I think the prince is impressed with me, so naturally he will have to have a new dress.
This slave dress, how can the prince look at me.
Of course, she wouldn't say that to Chen Xiaoxiao.
Rather, he said, "The slave thinks this garment doesn't fit very well, it's a little small, you see! ”
Xin Luo stretched out his hand in front of Chen Xiaoxiao, "You see that this place is a lot shorter, and there are shoulders, which are a little narrow here." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao looked at his four pieces of cloth and was worried, and chose the only piece of cloth that did not contrast and handed it to Xin Luo, and asked her: "You can make clothes, if you can't, I can teach you!" ”
Xin Luo thought to himself, why don't you just make it for me? Also teach me.
She was a little disgusted with Chen Xiaoxiao, and said in a flat tone: "The slave will do." ”
If you don't want to do it for me, I'm not unusual, I make it myself better than yours.
Chen Xiaoxiao nodded, "Since you will, then you can do it yourself, if you are too busy, you can call me." ”
Xin Luo took the cloth and said, "Thank you, master." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao said: "You're welcome, I bought this piece of cloth for one or two silver, and since you don't have any income now, then the money will be deducted from your monthly service." ”
Xin Luo's body stiffened, and he asked in surprise, "Isn't this for the slave?" ”
Why is she so stingy, a piece of cloth has to be deducted from her moon service.
Chen Xiaoxiao thought about how Xin Luo could ask this, this piece of cloth was originally bought by her for the prince, how could it be given to her for nothing?
Where in the world does she get a free lunch, she also needs silver to buy cloth.
"That's right, your maid's clothes, just like the one on your body, are all for the prince to get, I said before that I can give you a body is my superfluous words, but this piece of my cloth was originally for the prince, and if you give it to you, it will definitely not be given in vain."
Xin Luo felt that Chen Xiaoxiao just turned a corner and didn't want to give her, so what excuse to say now.
Chen Xiaoxiao said: "It's really expensive, this is cotton." ”
Xin Luo was ruthless in his heart, reluctant to let the child trap the wolf, "Then deduct it from the slave's salary." ”
Chen Xiaoxiao nodded and gave her the cloth.
In fact, it can be given to her, but she didn't make any meritorious service, and she didn't do anything special.
Besides, these were originally for the prince, and if there is one less horse, the prince's clothes will be less.
She comforted Xin Luo, "As long as you can do things with peace of mind, I will give you no less rewards in the future." ”
