Chapter 48: Purchasing New Year's Goods

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, there were still a few days before Chinese New Year's Eve, and the purse of Kapok was also embroidered, just waiting for Chinese New Year's Eve to be given to Ansheng.

Kapok has been busy recently, because of the purchase of New Year's goods, today Kapok is wearing a blue skirt, the collar and cuffs and the skirt are lined with white hair, very good-looking, dressed so good-looking because I want to go to the town to buy New Year's goods, by the way to meet Ansheng.

"Kapok, let me tell you something, my family is going to have a happy event recently" On the carriage, Zhang Yan said half and half left.

"Sister Zhang Yan, what a happy event? If you say that half of it will be left and half of it, it won't mean that you are going to get married! Kapok quipped.

"Kapok, what do you say! Don't talk nonsense! It's my brother, I'm going to get married, the date is set on the eighth day of the new year, my father said let me tell you, come and eat wine for me when the time comes" Zhang Yan said happily.

"Isn't it! Sister Zhang Yan, which girl did your brother marry? Why didn't I hear the wind at all? Kapok was skeptical.

"Ahem, you don't know it's normal, because it's someone we know well, you naturally won't hear what others say, and the people in the village don't know now, guess who is going to be my sister-in-law!" Zhang Yanshen said mysteriously.

"Alas! And guess! People we know well? It can't be a showman, right? Kapok thought for a while and said.

"Haha! That's right, it's Xiu Niang."

"I haven't heard her say it, it's so deep" Kapok said with a smile, I haven't seen Li Xiuniang say it on weekdays, I only know that Li Xiuniang likes to go to Zhang's house to play, and Kapok also joked that Li Xiuniang would not come to her house when she went to Zhang's house! Now that I think about it, there really is.

"She's definitely not a girl, I only found out a month ago, you also know that my brother is honest and shy and doesn't say anything, or my father forced him to look at the girl, he blurted out unintentionally" Zhang Yan told what happened.

"Then why are they in such a hurry to get married?"

"My father and Uncle Li discussed catching up with the good days of the Chinese New Year, so we chose the eighth day of the new year," Zhang Yan explained.

"Oh! I see! ”

Kapok and Zhang Yan had a match or not, and soon the two arrived in the town, Kapok and Zhang Yan wanted to buy similar things, the New Year is nothing more than to buy some couplet window flowers, all kinds of snacks and meat and rice and the like, the most important thing is that the fish means that there is more than every year, and there is a new dress.

After buying these things, Kapok and Zhang Yan put the things in the carriage and went to the ready-to-wear shop.

The two of them chosen, and the clerk introduced Kapok and Zhang Yan, Kapok valued a winter dress embroidered with peony flowers on the pink shoulders, and Zhang Yan took a fancy to a goose yellow winter dress with feathers.

"Shopkeeper, how do you sell these two pieces?" Kapok asked, pointing to the chosen winter dress.

"The price of pink and goose yellow is five taels of silver, these two pieces are of good quality, and the embroidery on them is embroidered by the town's embroiderers who are particularly good," the shopkeeper introduced.

"Kapok, it's too expensive, forget it!" Zhang Yan said in a low voice, although their family conditions are good, but a piece of five taels of silver is too wasteful.

"If you like it, why don't you buy it, the price is negotiable" Kapok also replied in a low voice, people have to be kind to themselves, and buy what they want.

"Shopkeeper, can there be less? You see that the two of us are just a little girl, and we don't have much private money on us, less, we will have two pieces" Kapok bargained with the shopkeeper.
