There are many shops on this street, and there are two grain and oil stores, Jing Xi thought that Bai Lu was going to buy condiments or other things that would be used in cooking, but she didn't expect her to walk into a ready-to-wear store.

However, Bai Lu came back soon, and when she came back, she had an extra burden in her hand.

Jing Xi asked her curiously: "What are you doing in the ready-to-wear store, do you buy clothes?" ”

"Well, it was made before, and today it's just a matter of going to pick it up." Bai Lu replied.

"Oh~" Jing Xi quickly reacted, "I guess this should be a meeting gift from you to your sister-in-law, right?" ”

"You guessed it, I can't hide anything from you. I passed by this shop that day and saw a very beautiful dress, so I asked my mother for my sister-in-law's size to come and customize a set.

I also made a set of my own, my mother doesn't want me to pretend to be a man all day, she wants to see what my girl's house looks like, and I will put this set on when we meet again in private one day. ”

Jing Xi thinks about it, a good girl's family wears gray all day long, and her mother will definitely feel distressed when she sees it.

The two of them talked and continued in the direction of the market.

Horses and carts are not allowed in the market, but there is a special place to park them.

After Bai Lu parked the carriage and paid the fee, she carried her burden and walked with Jingxi to find the stall owner who sold river fresh.

In the morning, there are the most people buying and selling vegetables, and it is the busiest time of the day when the market is at its busiest.

Especially in the population of Jiucheng, it is not an exaggeration to say that Jingxi and Bai Lu are walking in the bazaar.

The two walked for a while, and Bai Lu pointed to a stall in front of him and said, "That's it, the fish and shrimp in that house are the freshest, and there are many types of fish, there are sea bass you like to eat, I usually buy river fresh at their house." ”

"Then let's go over quickly," Jing Xi said, "There will be more and more people here in a while, and I'm afraid that we won't be able to go out at that time." ”

The two squeezed in, Bai Lu was the old customer of this stall, she checked that the ingredients were okay, and quickly negotiated the price with the stall owner.

In order to ensure the freshness of the ingredients, Bai Lu plans to carry the wooden barrels containing fish and shrimp directly onto the truck and transport them to the farm in the suburbs.

There are three barrels in total. The fish are larger and are packed in the largest bucket, and the remaining two buckets contain shrimp, eel, and crab.

Because Bai Lu is an old customer, the stall owner kindly helped carry the largest bucket, and the remaining two slightly smaller buckets Jingxi and Bai Lu carried one each.

The stall leader was very angry, holding the largest wooden barrel in front of him, and said as he walked: "Be careful, there are a lot of people here, but you have to be careful not to bump into it." ”

As he spoke, a man came over with a load on the other side, and that person was carrying a load of pork, which was hung directly with an iron hook.

The man's stall was nearby, and as soon as the destination arrived, the man unloaded the pork.

The people who wanted to buy meat in the bazaar saw people coming with fresh pork and came to grab them with vegetable baskets.

The person who unloaded the pork didn't pay attention, and the flat shoulder was swept away inadvertently, and the hook actually hung on Jingxi's clothes.

At first, Jing Xi didn't notice the abnormality in her lower back, until she took a few steps forward and suddenly heard a 'snort' sound, and then she realized that the clothes on her back were torn.

The iron hook was quite sharp, and the two layers of clothes on Jing Xi's back waist were all torn at once, revealing a large area of white skin in an instant.

But fortunately, the sharp iron hook did not hurt her flesh and skin, but the white flowers on her back immediately attracted the attention of many people around her.

Seeing this, Bai Lu immediately stood behind Jing Xi to cover her, and angrily scolded the people around her: "Buy your own dishes, don't look at it anymore, what's there to see?" ”

The stall owner who sold pork realized that it was his own hook that had torn Jingxi's clothes, and hurriedly came forward to apologize: "I'm sorry for this lady, I didn't mean to, you weren't hurt, right?" ”

As he spoke, he was about to untie his apron: "If you don't dislike it, cover it with my apron first, and I'll accompany you in a new dress when I go back, but my apron is somewhat stained with blood." ”

"No need, it's just a piece of clothing, and you don't have a heart." Jing Xi thought to herself, she could hold a bucket in one hand and cover her waist with the other, there was no need to pull with people in the market because of a piece of clothing.

"Use me anyway." Bai Lu reacted quickly, and immediately untied the burden on his body and tied it directly to Jing Xi's back, "This is just enough to block." ”

Jing Xi smiled: "Fortunately, you went to pick up the clothes first." ”

……

Soon, the three of them carried the barrel back to the wagon.

Jing Xi pondered for a moment, and the meeting place they agreed on was the East City Gate.

But now it is a retrograde way to go from the market to the East City Gate, and there are many people on the street, which is very inconvenient.

But if you go down to the south city gate, it is much smoother, and then from the south gate to the east gate, the distance is even shorter, the main reason is that the road will be much easier.

But the suit on her body was no longer worn, so she discussed with Bai Lu: "I have to go back and change my clothes, it seems that you have to take a detour to send me home." ”

"Why bother?" Bai Lu pointed to the burden on Jing Xi's back, "Isn't this ready-made?" You can change in the carriage now, and I'll watch it for you outside. ”

"But it's your new clothes, and you haven't worn them once."

"It doesn't matter if it's new clothes and old clothes, aren't the clothes you buy to wear? Why bother going back again, I'm just afraid you don't like it, you can open it and take a look. ”

"Okay." Jing Xi was finally persuaded by Bai Lu.

Because it is indeed more troublesome to go back, besides, Xiangyun, Sheng Yuan, and the Ji family are still waiting for them at the East City Gate, so it is not good to let them wait for a long time.

So Jing Xi opened the baggage, but when she saw the new clothes in the baggage, she was suddenly stunned, and her face became a little ugly.

Bai Lu noticed the strangeness on Jing Xi's face, and couldn't help frowning: "What's wrong with you?" Is there something wrong with this dress? ”

"............" Jing Xi's throat was dry, and he came back to his senses after a while, "It's red, I don't like this color very much, or let's go back." ”

Bai Lu breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought it was something, it turned out that it was just because of the color of the clothes." Actually, I don't really like such a bold color,

But my sister-in-law likes it, I inquired, she likes this carmine the most, so this one is for my sister-in-law, and the one I made for myself is below. ”

Bai Lu said, turning her clothes out from under the baggage.

When Jing Xi saw the faint watery dress, he was really relieved.
