Chapter 58: Where to Like
The two soon arrived at the Zhang Kee grocery store.
The weather was getting cooler, Ye Hongsleeves helped Lian Junjie choose more than a dozen catties of good cotton, and then went to the cloth village next door to choose a few ordinary cloths.
"This light blue cloth is for you and Jinbao to make autumn clothes, cyan is for you to make winter clothes, the aunt will use this dark green to make an autumn coat and winter clothes, and the cloth for the quilt cover will choose this dark blue with a print, these colors are forbidden to be dirty."
"You don't have to think about helping me save money, we can buy ready-made, these have to be done by yourself when we buy them back, my mother's body is inconvenient, and I can't do it."
Lian Junjie was a little puzzled about Ye Hongsleeve's choice, he was the only big man working in the family now, and he wanted to do these needlework for clothes and quilts, but he couldn't do anything.
"Don't do it with my mother, let my mother do it."
"Your mother?"
"Actually, this is to help my mother, her night blindness does not allow her to stay up like before, making clothes and quilts is comparable to embroidery and embroidery purses, I don't know how many eyes to save.
In the future, I will let my mother go to your house every day to make clothes and quilts with my mother, and the two of them will do some needlework, talk and laugh, and only when the mood is comfortable can the illness be raised quickly. ”
"You have a great idea! You can help and see if there is anything else to buy. ”
Ye Hongsleeve turned around to pick out something else, and when Junjie and the boss of the cloth village were checking out, he stretched out his hand and pointed to a light yellow cloth hanging on the wall, and he took a fancy to it as soon as he entered the door.
"Count that one in."
"This? But this one costs thirty cents a horse, so it's better for the guest officer to look at the others. ”
The boss of the cloth village saw that Lian Junjie was dressed like a rich man, and kindly wanted to introduce him to others.
Lian Junjie shook his head and glanced back at Ye Hongsleeve, who was picking out fabrics on other counters.
"No, I just want this, you can count it together."
Carrying cotton and fabric, the two went out of the cloth village to the lively market.
Ye Hongsleeve bought half a bag of rice and three catties of fat.
Lian's family still has a large vat of rice, so Ye Hongsleeve suggested that Lian Junjie buy a bag of white noodles and five catties of fat.
Even the eldest lady has a bad appetite, Jinbao is small, and white noodles are easier to digest than rice, whether they are pancakes or dumplings to make noodles, as long as they put a little lard, no matter how they are made, they are very fragrant.
Lian Junjie also asked the butcher shop owner to cut three catties of pork ribs and two catties of pork belly, and when he paid, he rushed to pay together, but Ye Hongsleeve refused.
"Brother Lian, you are old and young, it's better to save a little, save the money and repair the house well, the days will be long in the future, and there will be more places to spend money."
Lian Junjie had to give up when he heard this.
"It's almost like today, let's go back first, if it's not enough, let's come back next time."
Both of them had their hands occupied, and they had to go back early.
"Then you wait for me a little longer, I'll be here soon."
Ye Hongsleeve turned around and ran away after speaking, Lian Junjie followed her figure, and finally stopped at a roadside stall not far ahead.
After bargaining with the stall owner for a long time, Ye Hongsleeve bought two small packets of sesame candy for ten cents.
"Aren't you the least fond of eating sesame seeds? I think it smells bad. ”
Lian Junjie frowned and looked at the sesame candy in her hand, because she didn't like sesame seeds, and he hadn't eaten sesame seeds since.
"I didn't eat it myself, I bought it for Jinbao and Erni."
Ye Hongsleeve said as he carefully wrapped the sugar and put it in the back basket.
Although Jinbao told her last time that he was a little manly man and didn't like snacks much, there was no such old child who didn't like to eat snacks.
