After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man
Chapter 395: Bai's Mother's Shopping Spree
In a shop not far from the east gate of Jiangzhou City.
The beautifully decorated shop hasn't had time to hang up a plaque yet, but the decoration inside has been completed, and they are now making final preparations for stocking goods.
Inside the reception area, three members of the Bai family were lying on the new sofa.
Madam Su looked in shock at the pile of gift boxes of all sizes on the wooden coffee table in front of her, her slightly open mouth remaining open for a long time.
"This... was all bought by you?" She looked at the three people slumped on the sofa in disbelief.
Father Bai had no strength left. If he hadn't considered that they were outside and not in his room, he would have probably just lay down.
Now, he could only look at his wife with resentment, rubbing his sore calves from time to time with his hands.
He drank the big bowl of tea that Kuaiji brought him, and he gulped down two big bowls before he slowly felt better. While drinking, he reminded himself: "Next time we go shopping, I'd better let my mother accompany my wife. He really doesn't know why the same skirt from the east is better than that from the west!"
Even though he was a man who often worked in the fields, he finally experienced what it felt like to be physically and mentally exhausted!
Bai Qingyun was fine. This level of shopping was not difficult for him, except that it was a bit mentally torturous.
It’s mainly because of my mother’s taste. She is extremely picky. When she sees the style of a skirt from the east, she thinks the color doesn’t match. When she sees the color of a skirt from the west, she thinks the workmanship is not good…
The key is that such evaluations are all gained through trying one thing after another.
That afternoon, she deeply felt the pain of being a fitting model.
When Bai's mother finally saw an item she liked and decided to buy it, she felt as happy as if a long drought had finally brought rain.
However, this joy was short-lived. She walked closer to a cloth shop and looked at him with innocent eyes, hoping that the other party could give some advice...
This afternoon was long for both of them, except for Bai's mother.
Now, she was like a zombie whose energy had been sucked dry by a goblin. Her eyes were empty and lifeless, and she just wanted to stare at the pillow on the sofa in a daze.
"Madam Su, come and see if you like this hairpin..." After returning from shopping, Bai's mother became even more interested.
He glanced at the two zombie-like people, curled his lips in disgust, and pulled Madam Su to start introducing today's harvest.
"I see you don't like to wear any jewelry, but the store will open soon, and you will have to deal with those people. You have to wear some clothes to avoid being laughed at."
Bai's mother was afraid that the other party would refuse, so she even found an excuse.
She had heard from her youngest that Madam Su was once a wanderer in the martial arts world, and that she had too many things on her, which sometimes made it difficult for her to use them, and instead became a burden.
Gradually, I developed the habit of living a simple life. If I wear one more piece of jewelry when I go out, I will hesitate for a long time.
Madam Su originally planned to refuse, but then she glanced at Bai Qingyun, thinking that the latter could help her and persuade others.
However, he didn't expect that the other party only noticed his gaze and looked at him expressionlessly, then continued to stare at the pillow opposite him in a daze, with no intention of saying anything more.
In addition, Bai's mother's kindness was hard to refuse, so he had to accept it. He also secretly made up his mind to do good things to repay her in the future.
Before leaving, Bai Qingyun finally cheered up and went to inspect the warehouse that had been improved by Carpenter Yang and Kuaijiao, and put forward some suggestions.
Especially the inventory records in the warehouse. In the past, it might take a long time just to look through the account books to take out or put in an item.
Bai Qingyun then taught the three of them some modern tables and Arabic counting methods. Considering that the store accounts would be managed by Su Niangzi in the future, he also taught Su Niangzi a simple statistical method, abandoning the cumbersome abacus calculations, which greatly saved time.
The ox cart that came here was empty, with only a few more people sitting on it.
On the way back to Niucheng, the car was so packed that it was difficult to squeeze in one more person.
Even so, Bai Qingyun put the clothes and jewelry that her mother had bought for her into the space, thus making some room for her and Huohuo to sit.
There were much fewer people at the city gate than in the morning, and the family soon stepped onto the muddy road as they left the city.
On the way back, we saw carts carrying potatoes from Dayang Village coming back in groups of three or four. Many of them had seen the Bai family selling potatoes yesterday and had also pulled potatoes from the Bai family. After a few visits, everyone became familiar with each other.
"Mom, how about I put all these things into the immortal space? That way the ox cart can move faster."
Looking at the second wave of people who greeted the Bai family, their eyes widened at the car full of things, then they turned around in disbelief and continued on their way. Bai Qingyun finally couldn't help but speak out a suggestion.
Mother Bai followed Father Bai and sat in the front. The excitement from shopping had worn off, and now she felt weak. She just glanced back at Bai Qingyun and the car full of things behind her, and spoke weakly.
"Forget it. The people in the village probably have all heard about how much silver our family sold yesterday. They have become familiar with the people in the village over the past two days, so they know something."
"It's normal to buy some things now. If the money only comes in but never goes out, it will only make people worry about it!"
Bai's mother took another look with concern and said, "Because of you, our family has fewer visits to the market, but we still have plenty of food every day. If this continues, people will get suspicious."
"Today is a good day. We can just buy more at once, which can also dispel some people's unnecessary thoughts."
"Okay, then I'll listen to you." Bai Qingyun felt warm in his heart and agreed not to say anything more.
When they got home, the potato harvesting work was over, and Father Bai, who had originally wanted to go to the fields to help, finally relaxed a little.
Dinner was ready at home, and those who were taking classes in the martial arts field came to the dining room one after another after washing up to eat.
It's a comfortable night now. We were originally going to practice for a while after dinner, but the evening breeze won't make us too tired.
But today, no one was in a hurry to go. They all sat together and watched Bai's mother distribute gifts to everyone.
Bai Yi went to Baiwu to buy clothes and boots at the garment store. They often went out to work and it was not as relaxing as doing chores at home, so they always had to buy clothes.
Of course, there are also these white flows, but they are all distributed when they are in the store.
In addition to a ready-made dress, Xie Shuer and Xi Yue each had a pair of silver earrings. Although they were not very expensive, the patterns on them were very beautiful and most suitable for little girls.
Xiao Yan is now the daughter of the Bai family, which gives her an additional status than the other two. On this basis, he bought some hairbands and other small items for the little girl, and even specially bought a small gold lock as a gift for the little girl.
The three older brothers received some study-related books and the four treasures of the study. Bai's mother even consulted the people in the bookstore and bought back all the relevant books for the Tongsheng exam.
