"Selling biscuits! Two cents a biscuit..."

"Guest officer, let's take a look at this flower. It's a new flower from the capital. Buy one and give it to your wife and husband..."

"Guest officer, do you want to eat or stay at the hotel..."

..............

Mo Li and Jun Yi were walking on the street, the two of them were surrounded by the shouts of businessmen on the street, the bustle and bustle, both of them were a little dazzled.

Mo Li was because he had never seen this ancient street market before.

Because of family reasons, Jun Yi seldom went out since he was a child. When he went out, he went to relatives' houses, and took his servants with him in a sedan chair or a carriage. This was the first time he walked around the market like this.

Both of them are very fresh.

"Candied haws, sell candied haws..."

Li Li heard the cries of peddlers, and turned his head to look. An old man was carrying a bunch of candied haws on his shoulders, followed by a bunch of children.

Thinking about the time-traveling protagonists in the novels or TV dramas I read before, there are two things that must be done.

One is that you must eat candied haws, and the other is that if it is a heroine, you must dress up as a man and go to a brothel; if it is a hero, you must have a hero save the beauty once.

If you don't do these two things, then you are not an authentic time-traveling protagonist.

Well, he also followed the law of time travel to see how the taste of the ancient candied haws differs from the modern one.

Li Li would never admit that it was what he wanted to eat...

"Uncle, two bunches of candied haws." Li Li called to stop the uncle who was selling candied haws.

"Okay, two bunches of candied haws, four pennies." The uncle took two bunches of candied haws from the wood on his shoulder and handed them to Li Li.

"Here." Mo Li finally took the candied haws and gave him four Wen.

"Here, let's have a bunch each." Mo Li handed Jun Yi a bunch.

Jun Yi looked at the candied haws in his hand, and asked hesitantly, "Is this delicious?"

"Haven't you eaten it before?" Li Li bit a hawthorn from the front, and asked him vaguely with it in his mouth.

"No, I've never eaten outside before." Seeing that Mo Li had already started eating, Jun Yi carefully took one bite into his mouth.

After the two of them bit off the sweet icing on the hawthorn in their mouths, the taste of the hawthorn filled their mouths at once. The two of them looked at each other, and then they lowered their heads and said "呵~呵" Spit it all out.

The two looked at the candied haws in their hands and were speechless.

So sour!At first, the icing on the outside was very sweet, but the hawthorn inside was really sour.....

The two held the candied haws in their hands and didn't know what to do. Should they eat it or throw it away?

"Okay, it's my fault this time. I didn't expect the candied haws to be so sour." Mo Li looked at Jun Yi, whose little face was tensed by sourness, and said speechlessly. =Those time travelers can eat sour and sweet delicious candied haws, how come he, a time traveler, is so sour?

Mo Li was still complaining in his heart, but Jun Yi saw two children beside him looking at them enviously... the candied haws in their hands.

Jun Yi took the candied haws from Mo Li's hand and handed them to the two children along with his own.

"Here you go, it's too sour for our liking."

The two children looked at the candied haws handed over, swallowed the saliva in their mouths, resisted longing and hesitation and asked: "Are you really going to give it to us?" He refused.

Li Li looked at the two children who were not as tall as his waist, and said, "Well, take it."

After hearing what Mo Li said, the two children happily took the candied haws from Jun Yi's hands, and thanked Mo Li and Jun Yi excitedly: "Thank you two little brothers." Brother's child turned and ran away.

"Let's go, there is a tailor shop in front, let's go shopping." Mo Li took Jun Yi's hand and walked to the tailor shop in front.

The two of Mo Li walked into the shop. The business inside was pretty good. Several waiters in the shop were leading customers to look at the ready-made clothes or cloths. There was only one who was supposed to be the shopkeeper at the counter, trying to settle the accounts with his abacus.

The shopkeeper looked at Mo Li and the two who entered the store, stopped his abacus and came out from the counter, asking: "This little brother, I don't know if you want to buy cloth or clothes."

"Bring me some clothes that fit my brother and I." Mo Li pointed to Jun Yi and said.

"I would like to ask, I don't know if the little brother and this young master only buy the coat or the underwear together."

"Let's go together." Mo Li knew that the inner clothes that people here are basically bought by their own family, and few people buy inner clothes outside, but Li Li can't do it, even though little Mo Li can do it, But since he possessed, this skill is basically useless. It is still possible for him to nail buttons or mend, but it is impossible to make a piece of clothing.

Instead, he could just buy cloth and ask Mrs. Chen in the village to make it for him, but since there are ready-made ones, why bother them.

"This way, please." The shopkeeper brought Li Li and the two to a room next to him, which was full of styles of clothes for brothers and children.

The shopkeeper pointed to a light-yellow suit and said, "This is a new style that has only been popular in the capital for a few years, and many brothers like it."

"..." Looking at the clothes introduced by the shopkeeper, Li Li felt goose bumps on his arms.

The color is too bright, it's so strange for a big man to wear light yellow.

But looking back, most of the brothers here are actually like women. To be honest, most of the brothers are married, and the minority are married.

Mo Li turned his head to look at the clothes styles inside, and finally chose a few more simple and more masculine clothes.

It was the best choice for Jun Yi's children's clothes, and Li Li felt that all of them looked good, so he directly chose the most beautiful clothes among them.

After choosing the style of clothes, the shopkeeper took Li Li and the other two to choose the fabric for the inner clothes.

"This piece of fabric is pure cotton, which is close to the body and absorbs sweat; this piece is made of sand, which is breathable to wear, and this piece is made of silk, which is smooth and close-fitting. You can choose which one you want." The cloth for the clothes, as for the hemp yarn, he doesn't need to introduce it, and it seems that this little brother is not short of money.

"Which one do you like?" Mo Li looked at Jun Yi, thinking that this child should be a child of a wealthy family, and he should be particular about dressing.

"It's silk." Jun Yi has been wearing silk underwear since he was a child, so when Li Li asked him, he directly chose silk.

"Okay, then four silk underwear for children and four cotton underwear for adults." Because of his grandfather, Mo Li was used to wearing cotton underwear since he was a child.

After the shopkeeper saw that Li Li had made the selection, he went to the side and called an embroiderer to come over and measure the two of them.

After the embroiderer had measured the size of the two of them, the shopkeeper also calculated the bill.

"You have chosen four coats, the price is 520 taels and 39 yuan, the price of four pieces of clothes for the little prince is 11 taels and 820 yuan, the price of the four pure cotton underwear is 29 taels and 580 yuan, and the price is 29 taels and [-] yuan. The four silk inner coats of the young master are more expensive. They are [-] taels and [-] three pennies. The total is [-] taels and [-] pennies. I will give you a change. It is [-] taels and five hundred pennies. What's the problem?" The shopkeeper cracked his abacus and figured out the price to Li Li.

"No problem." Mo Xin calculated, and the shopkeeper did not miscalculate the price.

Take out a purse from the sleeve pocket, well, he actually took it out from the space, Li Li has never understood why people here like to put money in the chest or the hidden pocket in the sleeve, or hang it on the waist Purse.

It’s okay if it’s a silver ticket, but if it’s silver or copper plate, it feels heavy. The calculation is hung on the waist. The chest is bulging, and the sleeves are hanging down. No matter how it is placed, Mo Qi is not used to it, so his money is usually placed in the space, and then he pretends to take it out of his arms or sleeves.

Mo Li complained in his heart, but without stopping, he took a 50 tael silver ticket from his purse and handed it to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper took the banknote and carefully checked the anti-counterfeit mark on it. After confirming that it was genuine, he went to the back of the counter to give Li Li change.

After the shopkeeper gave Li Li the change, he took out another slip and handed it to Mo Li, saying, "Please sign this pick-up slip, and you can pick up the clothes with this pick-up slip in two days."

Li Li took it and took a look at the pick-up slip. It said who ordered what style of clothes on a certain day of a certain year, how much money was charged, the date when the clothes were picked up, etc. It was similar to a modern receipt.

While signing, Li Li thought to himself: The owner of this shop is a thoughtful person.

After coming out of the tailor shop, Li Li took Jun Yi to stand on the street and asked him, "Is there anything you want to buy or go shopping?"

"No." Jun Yi shook his head. He had never gone shopping or bought anything. He had servants and servants at home, and he could just order what he wanted to buy and eat. He had never gone shopping by himself.

"Then let's just go for a stroll." Li Li looked at the cute kid, thinking that it was all right, so he led him slowly on the street.

The two strolled from the street to the end of the street, and bought some small things or some snacks along the way, including a frog toy for Jun Yi's kid.

Li Li looked at this frog toy and thought that it was similar to what he played with when he was a child, except that he played with a tin frog when he was a child, and this one is a wooden frog. , everything else is the same.

As long as the clockwork is tightened, the frog can flop on the floor for a long time.

Think about when he was a child, he and his friends competed one by one, whose frog could jump the farthest and longest, and the loser had to treat others to eat ice cream. Those distant memories are still very clear in retrospect.

Seeing Jun Yi curiously playing with the wooden frog in his hand, Li Li felt that he was very pitiful, he was so young, and he had never even played with this toy, thinking that he would buy more while he was still following him and did not go home. Toys let him have a good time.
