Chapter 481: 481 Touching Tears of Qinghe
“Alright then.” Su Qingyue took back the copper coins, “Last time I mentioned that I wanted to make a set of clothes for my second brother, third brother, and fourth brother. I want to buy a kind of practical and comfortable cloth, so please give me your recommendations.”
“I thought you were joking, but you’re really buying.” Lady Li laughed with her mouth wide open.
“Of course I’m really buying.” She said, “I’ve even measured their sizes secretly.” She did it without letting them know, as they would definitely refuse to spend money on new clothes.
“Take a look at this cloth… This is part of Rong’s new stock. It was originally sold for thirty cents per foot unit, but I can give it to you for twenty-eight cents.” Lady Li spread out the displayed cloth, “This material is comfortable to wear and doesn’t crease easily, it’s the most practical and the best choice.”
“We are regular customers, can you lower the price a bit more?”
“How about this, I’ll give it to you at a discounted price of twenty-six cents per unit. There are several colors, you just need to report the clothing sizes and choose the cloth colors,” she pointed at the men’s clothing samples hung on the wall, “Pick any style you like, I’ll have it made for you within three days, and you can pick it up then.”
Su Qingyue looked at the styles of the men’s clothing in Lady Li’s shop, and found them to be the popular styles in the market, so she didn’t bother creating a unique design.
She chose three different colors of the same material and embroidered different patterns on them, then reported the sizes needed for the three sets of men’s clothes.
After Lady Li calculated the bill, she said, “The total is two taels and four hundred eighty wen. This is the best discount, and I can’t waive the small change anymore.”
Su Qingyue took out three taels from her private money of eight taels and paid the bill. After Lady Li returned the change, she said, “Come and pick up the clothes after three days.”
“Alright.” Su Qingyue thanked her again and carried the wheelchair out of Lady Li’s shop.
Seeing her frail figure, Lady Li kindly asked, “How are you going back to the village, wife of the Xiao Family?”
“I’ll take the cow’s car back. The place where the cow’s car takes passengers is not far.”
“Let me ask Rong to accompany you… Carrying the wheelchair by yourself looks quite strained…”
“It’s fine, I can push it.”
“Alright then.” Lady Li didn’t insist. She suddenly noticed a small dog lying at the shop’s entrance and hadn’t paid attention to it before, “Where did this little dog come from?”
Qingyue smiled, “It’s mine, I named it Little Bastard.”
“Its fur color is quite mixed, the name is quite fitting.”
“Little Bastard, let’s go.” Su Qingyue called, pushing the wheelchair towards the market, while Little Bastard obediently followed behind.
Watching her leave, Lady Li praised, “The Xiao Family’s brothers are really lucky to have married such a good wife who is willing to spend money on their husbands… It’s just a shame about her face, what will it look like after the scabs fall off?” Previously, when she said her face would look better after the scab fell off, it was just polite business talk. No one knows what her face would actually look like until the scab falls off.
Su Qingyue, who had already walked far away, didn’t hear these words. She carefully kept the cloth on the wheelchair from getting caught in the wheels and didn’t find it hard to push the empty wheelchair.
There was no one selling wheelchairs in Liuan Town, so many people on the street stared curiously at it.
When Su Qingyue brought the wheelchair to the place where Wang Crippled waited for passengers, Wang Crippled was amazed, “Ah, wife of the Xiao Family, you bought a wheelchair? This must be very expensive, right?”
