Chapter 24 Buying Clothes

buying clothes

Although Father Ye and Huzi were stunned for a moment, they followed immediately, and the group entered the fabric shop.Ye Xiaofeng entered the store and looked around. There was a dry smell in the fabric store, which made people smell very comfortable.Two of the walls are divided into two sides by waist-high wooden cabinets, on which batches of cloth are neatly arranged, and there are a total of hundreds of them.It's not hard to see that this store is probably one of the best in the town, and Ye Xiaofeng doesn't think that the very spacious store will be a second- or third-rate small store.

"Brother..." Lan'er was a little timid.She had never been in this kind of shop before, and the clothes she wore in the past were all left by her mother, and she asked the neighbor's aunt to help her change them, or bought some cheap cloth heads and carefully stitched them together to make clothes.This kind of clothing store and fabric store has never been in.

Ye Xiaofeng didn't know this, he himself was only wearing the small clothes that brothers wear, and now this is the only piece of clothing with few patches.

The buddy was kind, even though the members of the Ye family were dressed very ordinary, even downcast, they still greeted them with a smile.This is just a town. Although there are wealthy households, most of them are just ordinary people, so this kind of dress is very common.

In the past, people dressed like this rarely entered their store. After all, they are considered a century-old store with good materials and reasonable prices, but they are still a little more expensive than other stores.

However, the visitor is a guest, and there is no reason to bombard him.

"Man, is there any material that is suitable for little girls?" Ye Xiaofeng looked at the fabrics on the counter. Although they all looked very nice, he didn't know whether they would look good on him or not.

"Is this little sister wearing it?" The buddy was taken aback for a moment, he thought it was an adult who would speak, but unexpectedly it was this little boy who looked very thin.

Ye Xiaofeng nodded, and pulled Lan'er out from behind, "Brother, show me what my sister looks good in!"

The clerk looked up and down, and pulled out a piece of light yellow material from the fabric at the side, "Little guest, can you take a look at this material? This material is soft, and the color is also vivid. It just happens that my little sister is making new clothes in spring."

"Lan'er, do you like it?" Ye Xiaofeng put his finger on his lips, the color is good, but I don't know if Lan'er likes it.

"Brother..." Lan'er timidly shook her head.

"Don't like it?" Ye Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, "There are other things..."

Lan'er quickly pulled Ye Xiaofeng, then shook her head again.

Ye Xiaofeng laughed immediately, it turned out that he was reluctant to spend money.But how long can a piece of clothing last? It is the age when you can dress up well. Wearing those coarse old clothes every day is a waste of time. "Okay, if you still can't bear to buy a piece of clothing for you, brother, just buy one, and you should cherish it!"

Ye Xiaofeng made a serious face on purpose, Lan'er's big eyes flickered a few times, a flash of joy flashed, and she nodded vigorously, "I will cherish it, thank you brother."

"Then do you want this color? Or change it?"

Lan'er blushed a little, lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Just, that's it."

This time even the clerk, Father Ye and the others were amused, and even the shopkeeper, who was looking down at the account, raised his head.The little girl obviously wanted new clothes very much, but she still dragged her brother and refused to buy them. She was really cute and sensible.

"Little girl, grandpa will give you a cheaper price, okay?" the shopkeeper said with a smile. "Second son, calculate the price for the little guest."

As soon as the shopkeeper opened his mouth, several people's eyes lit up, "Shopkeeper, are you telling the truth?" Father Ye had actually bought fabrics here before, but not for himself, but for Mother Ye when she was alive. bought.

At that time, the life of the Ye family was relatively easy. The family had fields and livestock, with several sons around their knees, and they ate vegetables, meat, fine rice and white flour.

It's just that after Ye's mother gave birth to her daughter Lan'er, her body collapsed all of a sudden. Several serious illnesses drained her family's wealth, and the child died before she could learn to walk.Poor Father Ye is a big man who is both a father and a mother. After so many years of hard life, he hasn't been in this kind of fabric store for many years.

Even so, he still remembers that this store never pays on credit or owes the same price. The century-old store naturally has certain rules.At this moment, he suddenly heard that the medicine was cheaper for him, wouldn't he be surprised?

The old shopkeeper glared, "My old man is old, can't he still deceive children? Hmph. The rules in this store are no credit or debt, but my old man is willing to give the little boy a little money. You are not convinced!" The old shopkeeper is really kind, seeing that the few people don't seem to have a lot of money, and the little girl is very sensible.What's more, although these few people were poorly dressed, they didn't look like they were cowering. It must have just been a temporary disaster.

"How could it be, how could it be." Father Ye smiled wryly and bowed to the old shopkeeper.I didn't expect that the old shopkeeper's temper would be so violent, and a single sentence would provoke such a big reaction from him.

Ye Xiaofeng rolled his eyes, pulled Lan'er to the other side of the cabinet, and bowed to the old shopkeeper, "Thank you, grandpa shopkeeper. But I don't know if it's my little sister who buys clothes cheaper, or my family buys clothes cheaper?"

"Xiaofeng!" Father Ye stared, it's fine to thank him, why do you want it?

The old shopkeeper was also taken aback, and then laughed, "This kid is really shrewd. When you grow up, why don't you just come to my shop and do the calculations? The calculations are so good! Well, today you guys are shopping for clothes. It's cheap for you."

"Thank you, grandpa shopkeeper. It's not necessary to be a shopkeeper. My father and sister are still waiting for me to support me." Ye Xiaofeng said solemnly, and took Lan'er to the cloth place to watch carefully.

The shopkeeper grinned, looked at Father Ye and said, "You kid, it's not easy!" At such a young age, his ambition is quite high.Thanks to his shop, no matter how many people want to come to be a clerk, he can't even be a clerk.Then he said to Ye Xiaofeng, "Your father is in the prime of life, why do you need to support him, you little boy, if you grow up to be filial to your parents in the future, you will live up to your parents' hard work."

The corners of Father Ye's mouth twitched slightly, thinking that this boy is indeed raising their father and daughter now. Although the days are short, it can be seen that this boy is indeed good at making money, and Ye Xiaofeng's will must be the main priority in the future.In this way, this sentence is not an exaggeration.

Ye Xiaofeng didn't care, he was here to buy fabrics, and it would be best to get a discount on fabrics. As for whether the old shopkeeper believed that he could support a family at his age, that was not his concern.

To say that the clerk in this century-old store is still very talented, although the little girl looked at several other pieces of fabric, she finally decided to want this piece of goose yellow fabric.Ye Xiaofeng got the old shopkeeper's words, so he asked his assistant to pick out a piece of plain-colored material for Ye's father.

When Father Ye heard that he was buying fabric for himself, he hurriedly stopped him. He is a big man who makes clothes at any time.Ye Xiaofeng ignored it directly. Anyway, the money was his, and it didn't count if Ye's father said it.By the way, I asked Huzi, it is rare to have a discount, so naturally it is appropriate to buy more.
