After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Qin Xiaomi looked at the piece of red cloth and frowned: "Shopkeeper, your red cloth is unevenly dyed. Some places are red, and some are red and yellow. It looks like inferior goods at first glance, and you still sell it for three hundred coins per foot." , It’s too much to bully customers.”

"Little girl, don't talk nonsense!" The shopkeeper wanted to do business and was afraid of getting a bad reputation, so he simply asked the waiter to bring out two kinds of good red cloth.

"This piece of cloth is made of fine vermilion cloth, dyed with the finest color of cinnabar pigment. The workmanship is complex and the materials are precious, costing one tael of silver per foot."

"This is high-quality ocher cloth, dyed with ocher pigment. It is a deep red. It also costs one tael of silver per foot. If you want to make a wedding dress, even if the skirt and sleeves are cut tightly, Eight feet of cloth, eight taels of silver!"

"So it's not that we don't have good products, but..." The shopkeeper chuckled twice, and the meaning was self-evident, and said loudly: "Our Baojin Cloth Store never bullies customers, and only sells according to the wealth of the customers. Corresponding piece of cloth!”

This was so true that many guests from the county town looked over, pointed at them and laughed at them: "If you are poor, don't come to the county town to buy things, lest the dirt from your countryside will dirty the green brick floor of our county town!"

Aunt Qiao felt uneasy when she was told that. She pulled Aunt Xu and whispered: "Let's go and ask elsewhere. Maybe it's cheaper."

The shopkeeper heard this and said with a smile: "The price is the same in any cloth shop you go to. If you really can't afford a big red cloth for a wedding dress, then buy a foot of red cloth and make a red hijab to show your face, or simply Go rent a red wedding dress that someone else has worn!"

"What do you mean? You can't curse my daughter!" Aunt Qiao's eyes turned red with anger. This rented wedding dress had the hidden meaning of cursing the bride for a second marriage and implying that the bride was unclean.

Xu Erjun was also very angry and raised his fists: "Shopkeeper, please speak more clearly!"

The shopkeeper was amused: "What, you still want to beat someone in public? If you dare to do it, I will report it to the official and arrest you all as slaves!"

boom!

Qin Xiaomi slapped the money bag on the counter, opened the mouth of the bag, and let the shopkeeper see the silver inside: "Here are ten taels of silver."

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up and he immediately changed his face and called to the waiter: "What are you doing standing around? Hurry up and serve tea to the guests. Remember to add sugar!"

"Oh." The waiter hurriedly went to pour tea.

The guests in the cloth shop were also shocked. This little girl could actually take out ten taels of silver. These people were probably country landlords pretending to be poor.

The shopkeeper smiled and apologized to Aunt Xu and Aunt Qiao again: "Sisters, I was the one who said something stupid that I shouldn't have said. You two, please don't be as knowledgeable as me... Are you two going to have a wedding? What choice? This big scarlet color is the best for a wedding dress. It is festive and can ward off evil spirits, ensuring that the bride will be free from disasters throughout her life."

Aunt Qiao quickly grabbed Aunt Xu: "Sister-in-law Xu, you can't buy it. It's too expensive. Let's leave quickly."

But Aunt Xu didn't want to wrong Qiao Lizi, but her family didn't have so much money. She was embarrassed for a while and looked at Qin Xiaomi.

Qin Xiaomi smiled at the shopkeeper and said: "Shopkeeper, my two aunts are not very satisfied with your goods. Let's go to other cloth shops first. We might meet someone who doesn't want to take the red cloth and fools the customers. He secretly poked and cursed the shopkeeper of the cloth store who slandered his customers."

She took back the money bag and called to Aunt Xu and Aunt Qiao: "Boss, let's go and buy big red cloth from other cloth shops!"

They just asked the price and said that the price was high but the goods were poor. The shopkeeper secretly cursed the bride as unclean. Even if she had money, she would not let this cloth shop make money.

"Hey, don't leave!" The shopkeeper chased her out, but Qin Xiaomi and the others had long since disappeared into the crowd. The shopkeeper could only go back to Cloth Shop and endure the gentle laughter of the guests.

……

Aunt Qiao no longer dared to visit the cloth shop, and said to Aunt Xu: "Sister-in-law Xu, our families have known each other for decades, and we escaped from famine together. There is no need to pay attention to those scenes. If you don't buy big red cloth, buy a few feet." Use cheap cloth to make Li Zi a new outfit, and then buy a red flower to wear."

Aunt Xu hurriedly said: "No, it is precisely because of the friendship between our two families that my family cannot wrong Li Zi."

Xu Erjun's eyes were already red, and he promised: "Mother-in-law, I will do more work and buy red cloth for Li Zi to make a wedding dress before we get married. If it doesn't work, I will borrow it... I am young and strong, and it will not take more than two years. You can pay off your debt!"

Aunt Qiao disagreed: "No, you can't borrow money. After you get married, there will be a lot of money to spend. Listen to me, we don't care about face, just make it simple. The most important thing is that you get married. Finally, I can live a good life."

To be honest, Qin Xiaomi was a little moved when she saw it, but she said: "Aunt Qiao, Aunt Xu, Brother Xu, and Sister Lizi's red wedding dress, I'll cover it."

The three of them were shocked, and Aunt Qiao hurriedly said: "No, no, if you, a little girl, can take on such an expensive task, you should save your private money."

Qin Xiaomi smiled: "It doesn't cost any money. Let's dye the red cloth ourselves and make the wedding dress."

What?

Aunt Xu and Aunt Qiao both laughed: "You want to pick wild flowers and dye the cloth red, right? You can't dye it. We tried it long ago when we were young. Don't look at the red flowers, but the cooked ones are not at all. Reds are all muddy yellow, which is ugly... As for other colors such as blue, yellow, and green, although they are common, even if they are dyed, the fabric will fade after starching, making it unusable."

This is why the farmers' clothes are all dusty. They really can't afford those colorful clothes.

Qin Xiaomi said, "Don't worry, two ladies. Before Sister Lizi gets married, I will definitely dye the red cloth for you. If you can't dye it, I will use my own money to buy red cloth for Sister Lizi to make a wedding dress." It’s my dowry for Sister Lizi.”

Aunt Xu and Aunt Qiao both laughed. They didn't believe she could dye red cloth, so they just said: "Let's go to the Yamen first. We'll think of something else about the wedding dress later."

Qin Xiaomi didn't explain much and followed them to the Yamen.

When the thief who was following them saw them going to the Yamen, he secretly cursed the bad luck and had no choice but to abandon the deal and withdraw.

Qin Xiaomi was very sorry... The thief was caught and taken to the Yamen, but there was a reward for it.

After arriving at the Yamen, Qin Xiaomi and the others waited outside the Yamen for more than a quarter of an hour before Grandpa Qin and the others came out of the Yamen. Everyone was smiling, and Chai and Zhang's family were still a little excited.

Old Man Chai said: "Thanks to Brother Qin, otherwise we would never have seen so many officials."

Guan Annong corrected him again: "Old man, I am just a petty official, not an official."

Old Man Chai said: "Sooner or later, you will definitely become a high official."

Guan Annong was helpless and did not explain. He said to Grandpa Qin: "I will mention the things you keep talking about to the county magistrate. You should just leave it alone so as not to get into trouble."

It was said that someone might have borrowed the help of villagers to buy land secretly.

However, the county magistrate generally does not take care of this kind of matter. Firstly, there are too many local gangsters involved in this matter. Secondly, the county magistrate will be transferred, and no one who is not stupid will quarrel with the local gangsters.

Then he said: "Go back, otherwise it will be dark when you get home."

This is the county seat, far away from the village.

"Hey, thank you so much for your help today, Secretary Guan." Grandpa Qin and the others thanked Secretary Guan, and took Qin Xiaomi and the others to the city gate together.

When he learned that the price of red cloth had increased and Xu Qiao's family had not bought it, Grandpa Qin sighed: "Things are expensive in the county, maybe they can be cheaper in the town, so go home first."

But the red cloth in the town is all bought in the county, so it will only be more expensive.

The Chai and Zhang families also had a wedding. When they heard that red cloth was expensive, they sighed with sadness. Old Man Chai almost cried because his daughter couldn't even afford a red wedding dress when she got married.

Seeing that the atmosphere was so bad, Aunt Xu took Qin Xiaomi's talk about dyeing red cloth as a joke and said, "Girl Xiaomi has many ideas. Maybe she can really dye red cloth and let all the girls in our family wear it." Free red wedding dress.”

Then he asked Qin Xiaomi jokingly: "Girl Xiaomi, when do you plan to pick flowers and dye cloth?"

Qin Xiaomi: "I don't use flowers to dye cloth, I use wild grass."

Everyone laughed when she said this, and the atmosphere became more relaxed, but no one believed that she could dye red cloth with weeds.
