Zhou Qinglian listened to her words belittle herself, and she was even more jealous, why is she a young lady, she doesn't do any work at home, and she can still wear such beautiful clothes, she is a cheap girl in the countryside, she can't do any work, she has never worn a new dress, and even the eighty percent new red cotton jacket on her body is still because the eldest sister suddenly gained weight The year before last she couldn't wear old clothes.

The flames of jealousy in his eyes, one after another, were about to emerge from his eyes.

"Erya, no, Qinglian, follow my aunt to the street for a while, you haven't been to our town yet." Zhou Ximei saw her sharp eyes, and she was really afraid that she would fight with Peaches in anger.

As soon as Zhou Qinglian heard that her aunt was going to take her shopping, she immediately raised her head to Peaches proudly, and asked happily, "Just the two of us?" ”

"And your sister, let's go together." After Zhou Ximei finished speaking, she turned to Peaches and said, "Your two cousins have never gone to the street, so I won't take you this time, you obediently accompany the second sister at home to do embroidery work, and we will come back in a while." ”

After speaking, I was afraid that Father Lin would misunderstand, and said: "It's almost the New Year, there are many people buying New Year's goods on the street, and there are many children, I'm afraid I won't be able to watch it, so I won't bring Peaches and Xi'er sisters this time." ”

Father Lin didn't want her sisters to wander around the street, so he quickly finished breakfast and went out for a walk.

Lin Mei didn't eat breakfast, so she was in a hurry to go out, and before leaving, she went to Xu Dangjia, telling her that she would not do it at home in the future, and that the rice and mutton for the Zhou family would be forgotten, so that she didn't have to worry about yesterday's events. Xu Dangjia was relieved.

In Furong Hall, Zhou Ximei went back to the house to dress up, leaving the four sisters of the Zhou family and the Lin family still dining.

Taozi couldn't see Zhou Qinglian's smug appearance, so she pretended to say to Zhou Qingman: "Big cousin, you just wear this dress to go shopping, I'm afraid that the doors of some shops can't enter." ”

Zhou Qingman looked the blue padded jacket on his body up and down, and felt that it would not be, it was new.

Peach ignored her, turned to Xi'er and said, "Second sister, do you remember the first time our family visited Qingfeng Building?" That dog-eyed guy bullied us so young that he almost didn't kick us out. ”

When Xi'er heard it, she understood, and echoed: "Remember, remember, it was the eldest sister who came forward later, and we just went in, and the guy was so scared that he almost kowtowed to us and begged for mercy." ”

Zhou Qingman was aroused by curiosity and asked, "Why did that guy kick you out?" ”

Peach glanced at Zhou Qinglian with triumph and said, "Because I think we are poor and can't afford it." ”

"Pull it down, you are still poor like this, then our sisters are not like beggars." Zhou Qingman didn't believe her words at all.

"Alas, cousin Qingman, don't you know, at that time, our family hadn't moved to the town yet, and my second sister and I had to help the family work, and we didn't have time to clean up, so I casually put on clothes and went shopping with my eldest sister to buy New Year's goods. I still remember that the second sister was wearing clothes of similar color to yours. But when I walked to Qingfeng Building, I wanted to go in and have a look, but the guy there just wouldn't let us in, so my eldest sister stood at the door, took out a stack of silver tickets from her purse, and asked the guy to apologize to us, otherwise he would find the shopkeeper to open him, and the guy was so scared that he kowtowed to us and admitted his mistake. After Momoko finished speaking, she burst out laughing.

Zhou Qinglian looked at the clothes on her body very uncomfortably, and then looked at the one on the peach, this comparison, she was really close to the beggar. Immediately, it was as bad as a frosted eggplant, and I was not interested in shopping.

Zhou Qingman also asked a little stupidly: "What is Qingfeng Building for, you have to go in to see it?" ”

"Of course, it's the largest jewelry store in our town, you see my earrings are good-looking, the pearls inlaid on them, I heard that they are all brought from the south, but in the north of us, it is Xibei goods, which is bought from Qingfeng Building."

Zhou Qingman looked enviously at the pearl earrings hanging from her ears, no wonder they looked better than other beads: "Good sister, this must be worth a lot of silver, right?!" ”

"Of course, such a small pair cost two taels of silver." Momoko stretched out two fingers to show off.

Xi'er helped on the side: "It's nothing, the building is much more expensive than this, anyway, I opened my eyes, what pearl jasper step shake, hollow flying phoenix gold step shake, royal blue point emerald bead hairpin, red jade drop bead earrings, gold inlaid nine dragon play bead bracelet, and a lot of beautiful jewelry, but unfortunately I can't say the name, just looking at it I feel like I have grown a lot of knowledge, especially the red beads embedded in the big red jewelry gold hairpin are so big eggs." ”

Momoko saw that her two sisters were really stupid, and then boasted: "What's this, didn't the eldest sister say it, in the future, the two sisters will each give us a set of Qingfeng Lou's jewelry, and we can choose by ourselves." ”

Zhou Qingman showed envious eyes, and wanted to take a look at the jewelry of Qingfeng Building, but when he thought of his clothes, he was really frightened, and took Peaches's hand and asked, "Good sister, then what should I do, I still want to go to Qingfeng Building." ”

Momoko pulled out her hand and said narrowly: "Otherwise, you and your aunt borrowed clothes to wear, your aunt only made two new clothes a few days ago, the color is fresh, and I haven't seen her on her body yet." ”

Zhou Qingman thought that this was a good idea, her aunt's clothes must be beautiful and beautiful, she swallowed the last vegetarian bun, and pulled her sister to ask her aunt for new clothes.

Zhou Ximei had just dressed up, carrying the fifty taels of silver tickets that she had coaxed from Father Lin in the morning, and her own thirty taels of private silver, and she was full of joy and ready to get up and go out.

"Auntie, lend your new clothes to our sisters to wear."

Zhou Ximei was startled when she suddenly heard this. When he turned his head, he saw his two nieces standing behind him.

"Okay, you two are wearing this outfit very well, let's go out now, in a while, my aunt will tear a few feet of cloth for the two of you, let's come back and make it ourselves." Zhou Ximei didn't want to lend out her new clothes, it was like a meat bun beating a dog.

Zhou Qinglian's eyes lit up and said, "Can you let the second cousin do it?" She is good at embroidery, let her embroider a few peach blossoms for me, preferably a few birds. ”

Zhou Ximei switched, and wanted the second girl to make clothes for her, which was wishful thinking, and she didn't dare to ask about her own clothes, so she finally asked Ruyi to help make them.

"Okay, you two are such big people, it's time to learn some needlework by yourself, if you don't understand, take the opportunity to learn from your second cousin." Zhou Ximei, this is also for the good of the two of them.

"Auntie, aren't you going to the street today, just lend me your new clothes to wear, and I'll give them back to you when I come back." Zhou Qingman was a little afraid that he would be kicked out by the guys on the street, so he pestered her and said.

"My clothes, you can't wear them for your size, besides, the clothes my aunt wears at this age are not suitable for you." Zhou Ximei kindly explained.

But Zhou Qingman didn't recognize this reason, looked at Zhou Ximei's rose-red clothes, and liked it very much: "I can wear your color, or you can change the set again, let me wear this set." ”

Zhou Ximei wanted to roll her eyes when she heard this.

Zhou Qinglian was afraid that her sister would annoy her aunt and affect herself, so she hurriedly persuaded: "Sister, don't talk nonsense, my aunt loves us the most, and she said that she will tear the cloth for us. ”

The last sentence is to the point.

"That's right, this is in exchange, you don't like it, I still think it, let's go, let's go, don't go, there will be a lot of people for a while, and the good fabrics will be selected by others." After Zhou Ximei finished speaking, she pulled Zhou Qinglian and left.
