"No, no, no, all the customers are here. They are all the God of Wealth in our shop. Don't be afraid of the crowd. Just follow me." The fat owner said, leading the way. After entering the shop, another one walked in directly. After going out to the backyard, he opened a door and made a gesture of invitation.
Hong Xiaoduo stepped in and took a look. Inside, there were robes hanging all around. The men's robes occupied two walls, and the women's robes occupied both sides.
“I don’t know which young master I want to buy it for?” The fat owner asked Hong Xiaoduo to sit on the chair next to him and asked with a smile.
Hong Xiaoduo pointed at the children and said: "Isn't it the Chinese New Year? Each of us needs to buy one. The one with a medium price will be fine. Could you please help me choose."
This It's a big deal. The fat owner was very happy when he heard this, and thought to himself, then how can the Shen family push the God of Wealth out? Why are you so busy trying to please the young lady from Magistrate Wu's family? Why don't you think about how you dare to make money from the Magistrate's family?
When accepting money from others, I only dare to collect the principal amount, and then I have to please give a farewell gift.
The fat boss quickly called a woman in and asked her to help her choose clothes.
When Quan Jinghuai saw that his fat boss was looking for robes for him, he hurriedly said to Hong Xiaoduo, "You can just buy them, I won't need them." He didn't mind wearing new clothes for the New Year.
"Listen to me, we all wear new clothes during the Chinese New Year." Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking very domineeringly and signaled the fat boss to continue choosing, while he took the two girls to find women's clothing.
She also noticed that this was someone else's warehouse. She was afraid of being crowded and took it directly to the warehouse to choose.
Diagonally opposite, in the Shen family's clothing store, after what happened just now, Wu Jinyao was still in the mood to choose new clothes. She hurriedly left the store with a sullen face, got on her family's sedan chair and returned home.
The maidservant, who had been taught a lesson, followed the sedan anxiously.
Several other ladies from wealthy families also lost the mood to pick out new robes, and left in a hurry with their maids.
The shop suddenly became deserted. The female shopkeeper seemed to have been busy for such a long time without completing any business. She thought that the little lady from Wu Zhifu’s family would probably never come to open her own shop again in the future. .
It was useless to feel upset. In that situation, she had no choice.
Looking back at the counter, the robes on the hangers after trying on were in a mess, as well as the robes that the young ladies had just selected but did not pay for or take away. I felt so depressed that I wanted to vomit blood.
"My boss, the two big ones and the seven small ones just entered the Bian family's shop. I saw it really. Fatty Bian watched the excitement at our door for a long time, and welcomed them into the shop with a smile. "The guy came over and complained.
After listening to the waiter's words, the female store owner felt that her eyes were darkening and she almost fainted. She quickly held the counter to a chair and sat down.
The other guy was a little smarter and quickly came over with a glass of water.
The female shopkeeper drank some water and felt a little better. She patted her forehead to wake herself up, cheered up, and continued to do business.
You know, now is the most profitable day of the year, so you can’t miss it.
However, she thought too simply.
Pedestrians walking back and forth on the street originally wanted to enter the shop, but when they saw that there was no customer inside, they felt a little strange. Other clothing shops are crowded. What is this Shen's shop like? What's going on?
Looking at the female shopkeeper’s face again, she didn’t feel right either.
"Buying clothes? Please come in." Seeing that no one was entering the shop, the female shopkeeper hurriedly stood at the door to invite people.
However, the more she acted like this, the stranger the guests outside the door felt, and they quickly turned around and left, entering the Bian family's shop diagonally across the street.
The other people behind him followed suit and looked at the tailor shop that no one else was entering, but none of them entered either.
Soon, this matter spread, and it became more and more evil. In the end, it became an unknown thing that happened to the Shen family. Therefore, everyone buying New Year's robes was afraid of being contaminated with bad luck. , so I didn’t even go to her house to buy it. It was already two days later when the female shopkeeper heard this rumor. Even though she stood outside the shop and shouted about discounts, no one paid attention to her and she fainted from anger.
As for Na Hong Xiaoduo and others, and at Bianjia shop, everyone has chosen new clothes, robes, shoes and socks from top to bottom.
When it was time to pay, the fat owner said that a 20% discount would be enough, but Hong Xiaoduo, who had always been very economical, refused and said that as long as the price was not more expensive than selling to others, it would be fine.
Then, the fat shopkeeper asked them to choose handkerchiefs, purses, etc. as gifts.
This Hong Xiaoduo was not polite and asked the children to choose a few purses. The purses given by the tailor shop in the past were not enough for the children, but this time it was enough.
Is it the Chinese New Year? Hong Xiaoduo plans to give each child a small amount of money.
The person who packed the small bag walked out of the clothing store, intending to take the new clothes he bought back to the inn before continuing shopping and buying some food.
But I saw two young people coming over: "Mrs. Hong, do you want to continue shopping? Then leave these things to us to send back?"
Hong Xiaoduo took a look and recognized them. It's a guy from Anping Inn.
"Then I'll bother you two brothers." Hong Xiaoduo agreed with great relief and thanked him.
The innkeeper helped the nine people pick up their packages and walked to the inn.
Hong Xiaoduo looked relaxed and looked at the shops on the street, looking for a dried fruit snack shop, but Quan Jinghuai looked at the young man following not far away.
He had the impression that he had seen this young man outside the inn when they left it.
However, he doesn’t look like a bad person.
Hong Xiaoduo took the children into the dim sum shop and picked out something he had never seen or eaten elsewhere.
The shopkeeper took a look and hurriedly asked the waiter to get some of each for her and the children to taste. After a while, there were several bags of snacks in each hand.
I bought several kinds of sugar along the street and roasted chestnuts with sugar.
As he bought more and more things, Quan Jinghuai felt sorry for his new disciples and took all the oil bags in their hands into his hands.
When turning back to the inn, among the nine people in the group, Quan Jinghuai had the most things in his hands. He didn't feel tired, but the frequent glances from both sides of the road made him a little uncomfortable.
There is nothing I can do. Each of his seven disciples and their 'mother' has a candied haws in their hands, and they are eating them while walking. It's weird not to attract attention!
“This candied haws is delicious and not sticky to the teeth.” Hong Xiaoduo commented to the children while eating.
"Mom, the man in the blue robe behind has followed us." Tianshu walked to Hong Xiaoduo and whispered.
Hearing this, Hong Xiaoduo turned around and looked over. Sure enough, five or six meters away, there was a young man wearing a blue brocade robe. When he saw her looking over, he smiled.
The smile is not obscene, it’s pretty, and it even has dimples?
"Ignore it for now." After Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking, he realized that he had arrived outside the inn.
The two adults and the seven children walked into the inn. Hong Xiaoduo saw the man in blue brocade robe from the corner of his eye, and he followed him in...
