Chapter Seventy-Four: The Moon in Pingtong City
Old Master Qi added: "There is another thing, that is, to come to our cold study for class, students need to wear uniform clothes. β
Hearing what Old Master Qi said, Old Man Chen also recalled the students he saw in the cold study when he passed by the classroom before.
All of them are wearing exactly the same white Confucian shirts, full of vigor and politeness, and they look like scholars.
Old Man Chen's eyes lit up, imagining the appearance of Ergou when he put on that white shirt, and he was happy in his heart.
Hey, hey, hey, when the little rabbit cub of Ergou wears it, isn't he also a reader? My old Chen family can be regarded as a scholar.
Old Man Chen applauded again and again, and he couldn't wait to ask Ergou to put it on now.
Old Master Qi sighed, a look of shame flashed on his face, he took out a piece of paper from the bookshelf and handed it to Old Master Chen.
Old Master Qi said: "Since our study committee really doesn't have much money to make clothes for students. So this dress has to be bothered, Brother Chen, you have to worry about it yourself. This is a drawing of the clothes, which indicates the fabrics used and the cutting needs, you can make a dress like this for Ergou according to the drawings. β
"Huh, okay." Old Man Chen was still immersed in joy, and he didn't pay too much attention to other things, he glanced at this drawing.
yes, it's so pretty. It's like a reader.
The cutting is not very difficult, and Old Man Chen can do it himself with the cloth.
Old Master Qi looked at Old Man Chen's face full of joy, and he couldn't bear it, so he said, "Brother Chen." β
"Huh?" Old Master Qi's call temporarily pulled Old Man Chen out of his joyful mood.
Old Master Qi said, "Brother Chen, if you are really difficult in terms of money, you can talk to me. Although in principle, every student must wear this set of clothes to class, but it is really not possible, except for the day of Mr. Xu's class, they can come directly to class. β
Old Man Chen was a little confused by what Old Master Qi said, but he still nodded, thinking in his heart that no matter how poor he was, he couldn't be poor in ambition, no matter how hard he was in the child, it was just a piece of clothing, he Chen Degui gritted his teeth, and just ate the chaff dumplings for a few days.
Old Master Qi didn't know if Old Man Chen listened to it, so he could only acquiesce that he had listened, and he felt ashamed, and he didn't want to talk much, and finally said: "When the clothes are ready, please go and pay the tuition, and then let Ergou come to class in clothes." β
"Okay." Old Man Chen smiled brightly, his mouth was very open, revealing some slightly yellowed teeth, looking honest and simple.
Old Master Qi sighed and didn't say anything more.
Subsequently, the proud old man Chen came out of the cold study with the dejected Ergou.
Ergou originally thought that he had come to this cold study in the morning, and he would go home happily in the afternoon to practice martial arts with the guy surnamed Wang.
I never thought that Old Man Chen was stunned and dragged him to the West Market of Pingtong City, not far from the cold study, saying that he wanted to buy some moon cold brocade.
Today, Mr. Chen was happy, waved his hand, and said that we would not go back to eat lunch, and it was rare to be relieved, so he directly took Ergou to find a roadside stall and asked for three baked cakes and two pieces of bacon.
Hey! Very arrogant!
The two dogs ate a piece of bacon and two baked cakes, and their mouths were full of oil, and the unhappiness of not being able to go home to practice martial arts was all left behind by him.
The sky is big, and the belly is the biggest.
When the second dog was eating, Mr. Chen also watched his grandson eat there slowly, and he was also very beautiful in his heart, the more he looked at it, the rarer it became, and the more he looked at it, the more precious he became.
Old Man Chen said with a smile: "Ergou." β
"Huh?"
Ergou, who was struggling to deal with the baked cakes in his hand, couldn't raise his head, so he could only turn his eyes and look at Old Man Chen.
Old Man Chen said, "Later, grandpa bought you cloth and made new clothes, and you can go to study." β
"Hmm." Ergou only cared about the food in front of him, and listened to half of the sentence, which was a topic that he was not interested in, so he stopped listening.
Eating is important.
Old Man Chen saw Ergou gobbling up, as if he was a starving ghost reincarnated, and he didn't get angry, but just scolded with a smile: "It's really useless!" Two pieces of pancake are eaten like this! β
The second dog gave him a blank look, and ignored it, so he ate the piece of bacon into his stomach with a bite of the baked cake, and had to suck his fingers stained with oil and water when he was finished, and finally patted his belly again, making a satisfied burp.
"Hiccupβ"
After eating and drinking, Mr. Chen led the two dogs to the West Market, and there were not many cloth shops in the West Market, and there were only four of them.
Old Man Chen also found one first, and the guys in the store were quite polite, even if Old Man Chen and Ergou were dressed shabby, he was still polite, and there was no trace of the dogs in the book who looked down on people.
"Boss, look at what you need."
The guy in the store recommended several kinds of low-quality, unpretentious fabrics to Mr. Chen.
The guy in the store had a vicious eye, and he saw through it at a glance that he came to buy the fabric for Ergou, so he smiled and said: "Uncle, look at these kinds of fabrics, the color is good-looking, buy it for your grandson to make a new dress, it will look good!" β
The words of the guy in the store can be regarded as speaking to the heart of Old Man Chen, he looked back at the second dog who was squatting outside the door and picking his nose, looking at the tattered clothes on his body, I don't know how many years I have been wearing, and I feel a little guilty.
However, he also knew that the purpose of his trip was not to make some new clothes for Ergou, but to buy the fabrics required by the cold study.
So Old Man Chen asked, "Do you have a moon cold brocade here?" β
"Moon Hanjin?"
Hearing this term, the guy's face changed and became a little strange.
"Yes, the moon is cold, the moon is cold, the cold is cold. Do you have one here? β
Old Man Chen also saw the strangeness in the other party's eyes, but he was a little unclear.
What happened to Hanjin this month? Any questions?
The guy pointed to the second dog who was squatting outside and picking his nose, and asked, "Is this kid going to study in the cold study?" β
Old man Chen is happy, it seems that Han Shuzhai is still very famous, and even a guy in the cloth shop knows it.
Old Man Chen nodded, and the guy pointed to the cloth shop on the other side of the door and said, "There is Yuehan brocade in the store opposite, and only in that shop." β
After that, the guy's face was a little ugly.
Old Man Chen didn't notice it, and after thanking him, he took Ergou over.
This cloth shop is not as good as the previous one, the decoration is not very good, the last one is a city, but this one is a door.
And there are no hired people in this house, only someone who is supposed to be the shopkeeper sits behind the counter and naps.
Old Man Chen stepped forward and knocked on the counter, and the shopkeeper suddenly woke up.
