Soon, it was the day when Shen Ruolan went to the county again. This morning, she got up at five o'clock. After a simple wash, she and her father moved the five pots of crystal jelly to the car, and she put on the old quilt. He also got into the car.
It's the middle of the first lunar month now, the weather is not as cold as it was in the twelfth lunar month, but it was still very cold in the morning and evening, Shen Ruolan came back for half a month, she got used to it, and felt quite uncomfortable after suffering from the cold so suddenly.
Seeing his daughter's trembling appearance, Shen Dejian was very distressed, and secretly made up his mind that when he made money in the future, he would definitely buy a car with a compartment so that his daughter would not suffer from the cold again...
The carriage creaked on the snowy road, and when it arrived at Taohua Village, Zhang Eryong also came up with a big bag on his back.
Seeing Shen Ruolan, Zhang Eryong's ears turned red slightly, then turned to Shen Dejian, and said hello, "Second Uncle."
Shen Dejian hastily moved his own pot inside to make room for him to sit, "Er Yong, are you out hunting again?"
"Well, it's fine to stay at home, so let's go for a stroll up the mountain." Zhang Eryong put down the bag and sat beside Shen Ruolan.
Shen Dejian looked at the bulging bag, and became curious: "What are you doing? It's such a big bag?"
Zhang Eryong smiled innocently, and said truthfully, "A roe deer and a fox."
Upon hearing this, Shen Ruolan's eyes showed yearning again, and she began to talk about hunting with Zhang Eryong.
For example, where is the best way to enter the mountain, which mountain has more prey, which mountain has dangerous wild animals, etc. He asked in great detail, and he kept his answers firmly in mind.
Zhang Eryong saw that Shen Ruolan's eyes were bright, she asked such detailed questions, and her eyes were full of expectation and yearning. After hesitating for a while, he finally made up his mind and said, "If you really want to go, wait a few months until the weather warms up." , I’ll take you there, it’s too cold these few months, and you can’t stand living and eating in the mountains!”
Seeing that he agreed to take her there, Shen Ruolan was immediately elated, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Sure, ok, I just take advantage of these few months to exercise and exercise, and I will exercise my body well. Time to go on an adventure with you!"
Seeing her smiling like a flower, Zhang Eryong's mood also improved. He pulled the corners of his mouth and said in a low voice: "Okay, I will definitely take you there..."
When the two of them were talking, Shen Dejian basically watched from the side, not interrupting or making a sound, for fear of disturbing them.
Seeing that the two of them were able to talk together, and that Zhang Eryong was always thinking of his daughter, Shen Dejian was very happy.
These two children, talented and beautiful, are a match made in heaven. I just don't know if the old Zhang family can agree to Er Yong's marriage. If he can, he will immediately settle their affairs...
...
When they arrived at the county seat, it was already daylight, and Shen Ruolan suggested that a few soldiers divide into three groups. Shen Dejian went to the restaurant to deliver the crystal jelly, Zhang Eryong went to sell his prey, and she went to Heji Buzhuang to get her quilt by herself.
With so many people and so many things to do together, there is not enough time to do it together. It is better to do it yourself, which saves time and trouble.
Shen Dejian and Zhang Eryong also agreed, and it happened that Zhang Eryong planned to sell his prey and secretly found a leather goods to make a waistcoat for her. If they go together, if she doesn't feel so embarrassed, it's better to wait for him to finish the waistcoat and directly Give it to her, and when the things are finished, she will have to accept it.
When they parted, Zhang Eryong suddenly said, "Second Uncle, Ruolan, wait for me for a while."
He jumped out of the car and walked towards a breakfast shop on the side of the road. Soon, he came back with a few steaming steamed buns wrapped in oiled paper.
"Second Uncle, Ruolan, Shuanzi, you haven't had breakfast yet, come, eat while it's hot."
He kept two for himself, and divided the remaining six among Shen Ruolan and the others.
Didn't they all have breakfast? It's so busy early in the morning, who cares about breakfast? Now that there are steaming steamed buns, everyone has an appetite.
"Thank you Er Yong!"
Shen Ruolan took the steamed stuffed bun, "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" took a bite, and after a whole morning of freezing, the warm steamed stuffed bun made her body warm.
Shen Dejian and Shuanzi also took the buns, bowed their heads and started to eat. After finishing the buns, they separated.
Shen Ruolan went to He Ji Cloth Village, the proprietress had already made the two quilts and a few sets of clothes, waiting for her to come and fetch them.
The quilt she made this time is the same as last time, it is all pink, and the fabric is the same as last time, but the fabric used this time is not dyed, it is an even color, I have seen her previous quilt People, if you don't look carefully, you will definitely not recognize that this set is newly made, and you must think it is her previous bed.
His father's quilt is lake blue, the cotton-padded jacket and trousers are brown, and the cotton-padded shoes are black.
These are all made of the finest cotton, the best cotton cloth, fine workmanship, thick and soft to the touch, warm and comfortable.
The two sets of obscene clothes and trousers were azure, and she specially chose thin and soft cotton cloth, which would be comfortable to wear next to the body and not easy to get dirty. Her father must have never worn such fine clothes in his entire life!
Two beds of quilts, plus a set of cotton-padded jacket and cotton trousers, two sets of dirty clothes and trousers, and a pair of cotton-padded shoes, it was a big bundle, and the big bundle was almost as tall as Shen Ruolan.
Shen Ruolan couldn't go shopping with these things on her back, she was afraid of being exhausted, and she didn't want to put them in the space to avoid accidents, so she wobbled to find their car.
Fortunately, her father had said before which restaurants he was going to, and Shen Ruolan found Shuan Zi with little effort, and she quickly found Shuan Zi. She put the quilt and clothes in the car and let Shuan Zi look after her. He went out for a walk lightly.
Ever since Shuanzi was hired by Shen Dejian, he has regarded Shen Ruolan as his half boss. When seeing him, he always nodded and bowed, and kept his head low. The owner of the car.
Of course, Shen Ruolan is not that poor little boy who begged him for the fare with a kitchen knife...
Walking on the street, Shen Ruolan searched for it from a distance. She planned to find a fur shop to mend her mink fur cloak. When she was hunted down by the bald man and his accomplices in Wusun last time, the cloak was scratched. Big mouth, such a valuable thing, it is definitely not possible to sew it with a needle and thread by yourself, you have to take it to a special shop and find a professional master to repair it.
After looking around, I finally found the largest distributor in Nong'an County - Duanji Fur Store.
After entering the door, Shen Ruolan inquired with the boy, and found an old craftsman who specialized in repairing leather goods, and handed over her cloak for repair.
The old master looked at the hole, and said in a low voice, "This hole will cost you a tael of silver."
Shen Ruolan's heart ached.
It takes a tael of silver to make up a hole
It's too expensive!
One tael of silver is enough for her to buy a satin padded coat, which is enough for a poor family to spend for a year, so it can be so exorbitant!
"Master, can it be cheaper? You see, the cut is straight, and you only need to sew it up against each other. How can it cost a tael of silver?" She discussed, even if she had money, she didn't want to be so big.
Unexpectedly, a word of discussion made the old master dissatisfied.
"Girl, what we repair here is mink fur, not dog fur jackets. When mending, we use embroidery instead of sewing. If the girl thinks it is expensive, she can find another place or sew it herself. Anyway, the girl can sew by herself." , isn’t it enough to just face the sutures!”
Hearing the old man's tone of yin and yang, Shen Ruolan got a little angry, "Master, I'm just discussing with you, it's fine if you don't agree, why bother to say such inappropriate things?"
The old man raised his head, with a look of resentment on his wrinkled old face, "When did I lose my voice? You were the one who started the bargaining, okay? I've been working in this fur shop for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen you. He even negotiated the price for mending a cloak."
"Girl, I'm not talking about you. This mink fur is worn by rich people. If you don't have money, you can just wear your cotton jacket and trousers properly. If you insist on wearing this good thing to support yourself, you are also wearing dragon clothes." The robe is not like a prince, if it is accidentally damaged, and you can’t even afford the money to repair it, why bother? It’s better to sell this great cloak and buy some food and rice to live in peace!”
The old man probably saw that Shen Ruolan was dressed in plain clothes, she didn't have any jewelry on her body, and she didn't have a girl to serve her, so he looked down on her and spoke very rudely.
Although Shen Ruolan didn't like to cause trouble, she was still irritated by the old man's attitude, she looked directly at the old man, and sneered: "Hehe, today I have finally seen what it means to look down on people with a dog's eyes.
