Father Zhang heard Zhang Xiaoxue say so much, and the shame in his heart was slightly lightened, and he promised not to mention the words just now.

"Oh, Dad, I forgot one thing, I promised my mother that I would buy her a big bronze mirror when I went to town today.

It's a pity that it's so far out of the county, if you don't buy a bronze mirror from the county seat, there should be a better one, and now I have to buy it at the grocery store in the town. ”

On the road, just thinking about giving a birthday gift to the old lady in the county government, Zhang Xiaoxue forgot about buying a big bronze mirror for Zhang's mother's house.

"Haha! It's okay, the bronze mirrors sold in the town are no worse than those in the county, and your mother will definitely not be more real.

Xue'er, don't you have a bronze mirror in that house? Let's just buy two today, and you also have a bronze mirror in your house, girls love beauty, and it is really convenient to have a mirror to look at. ”

Zhang's father said with a smile, remembering that there should be no mirror in his daughter's house, so he said to buy two directly.

"Hehe, even if it's in my house, I have other things to take care of, and if I can't use it, I won't spend this unjust money anymore. ”

Zhang Xiaoxue is not uncommon with that kind of vague bronze mirror, which is not clear at all when used to shine on people, and she feels that there is no need to buy it at all, and she can't use it anyway.

So the three of them came to the grocery store in the town again, ran directly to the counter, and asked the shopkeeper to get them the largest bronze mirror.

The shopkeeper brought the largest bronze mirror in their shop to Zhang Xiaoxue.

This bronze mirror is half a meter high, oval, and supported by a carved wooden bracket, giving Zhang Xiaoxue a sense of antiquity, and it is good to be an ornament in the house.

Although this bronze mirror is not as clear as a modern mirror, it is also clearer than Zhang Xiaoxue originally imagined, and the surface of the mirror is still very smooth.

Zhang Xiaoxue was quite satisfied with this bronze mirror, so she asked the shop children how much they sold for this bronze mirror?

Zhang Xiaoxue didn't expect that the shopkeeper would ask for two taels of silver as soon as she opened her mouth, which startled her, it was just a bronze mirror, how could it be so expensive?

If it weren't for the little two in this shop, who regarded them as the wronged bosses, could it be that the copper mirror was very difficult to make? Or was it because copper, a mineral, is also a relatively scarce mineral here?

Zhang Xiaoxue looked at Zhang's father and eldest brother Yuanguang beside her, and when she heard this price, she also looked indifferent, and she was not surprised, thinking that it should not be the store's sky-high asking price.

"Little second brother, there is only one bronze mirror left, although it is bigger, it won't cost so much silver, are you cheaper?"

Anyway, Zhang Xiaoxue still has to try to talk to them about the price, thinking that it can be cheaper.

The shopkeeper talked about how difficult it was to make this copper mirror, and how good the workmanship of the copper mirror was, and took a small copper mirror for comparison, and Zhang Xiaoxue and the two of them went back and forth, and finally Zhang Xiaoxue used one or two nineteen coins of silver to buy this copper mirror.

Huh, in order to save this 100 money, it's really not easy, it wasted Zhang Xiaoxue's saliva for five minutes, and when she went out, she also pretended to wipe her forehead, which was not sweating at all, and her eldest brother Yuanguang returned to her ox cart with this bronze mirror.

As soon as she got home, Zhang Xiaoxue couldn't wait, and asked her eldest brother to put the bronze mirror in Zhang's mother's room, so she went to Zhang's mother, wanting her to come back quickly to see if she liked the bronze mirror she bought.

When Zhang Xiaoxue looked for it, she saw that Zhang's mother was sitting next to the eldest aunt on the other side of the shed, occasionally helping the eldest aunt to continue the fire, and chatting with the eldest aunt in full swing.

Hehe, on such a hot day, in the pancake shed, although it is ventilated on all sides, it will not make people feel comfortable, Zhang Xiaoxue thought, her mother is not too hot, and she actually ran there to find someone to chat.

When Zhang Xiaoxue entered the shed, the workers greeted her one after another, and Zhang Xiaoxue did not ignore people, but still said a few words to them with a smile.

"Xue'er, the dress you designed is really beautiful, the eldest aunt left early yesterday afternoon, and I didn't see your mother and wife wearing it, this time I saw the clothes your mother wore, and I liked it tightly.

I can't help but let your mother help me make one, Xue'er, don't blame the aunt for being troublesome. ”

As soon as Zhang Xiaoxue heard the eldest aunt say this, she laughed and said: "I guess that the eldest aunt must also like it, why do our family say such things outside the world, how can I be unhappy."

I went to town today to buy a big bronze mirror for my mother, and I came here to ask my mother to go back to the house to have a look. ”

Zhang Xiaoxue and the eldest aunt said a few more words, then took Zhang's mother's arm and pulled Zhang's mother, who was chatting with the eldest aunt outside, back to her house, and asked Zhang's mother to see if the bronze mirror she had just bought satisfied her.

"You kid, you've just come back from outside and you're tired, aren't you? Go back to the house and have a good rest, what were you anxious about just now, since you have bought it back, your mother will be able to see it sooner or later, you will drag your mother back to the house in a hurry, and you are not afraid to make your aunt laugh.

As soon as your aunt saw me this morning, she said that she also liked the style of clothes we were wearing, and wanted us to help make one.

Such a little thing, my mother naturally agreed, anyway, the three steamed buns they all learned how to cut with you, I will let the three steamed buns they help your aunt make the clothes first.

Sanfu They were originally making a hat of fabric for you, so I asked them to stop for a while, and first make clothes for your aunt, I thought, anyway, you still have several kinds of straw hats, you can wear sunscreen, and the hat of this fabric is not in a hurry to use.

So, Xue'er, don't blame your mother, let's make clothes for your aunt first? Your aunt has always loved you too. ”

When Zhang's mother and Zhang Xiaoxue walked all the way to their house, they asked her to stop making fabric hats for Zhang Xiaoxue first, and explained to Zhang Xiaoxue about making clothes for the eldest aunt first.

Of course Zhang Xiaoxue didn't think so, this is not a big deal, how could she be so stingy, how could she care.

"I guessed that the eldest aunt must also like it, and originally planned to let the three steamed buns make clothes for the eldest aunt, by the way, I will also design a dress for my grandmother another day, and keep it so that she can wear it comfortably and look good.

Hee-hee, mother, does the eldest aunt only like this style of clothes we wear? She didn't ask you why you became so young all of a sudden.

Does the eldest aunt envy you? Does she want to wear a mask too? Mother, have you told the aunt that we can make a mask?"
