97 Buying Clothes
After Li Xiao changed his clothes and came out, Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes lit up.
After all, he was her boss. Even though he was wearing simple clothes, he looked good.
The shop owner also came forward and complimented him, and that he looked mighty.
Li Xiao looked down at the clothes he was wearing and didn’t bother trying on other clothes.
There weren’t many clothes suitable for his size in the store. This was the only one made of coarse cloth, so there was no need to try others.
Just as he was about to go to the changing room to change his clothes, he was pulled back by Lin Xiaoyue.
“Just wear this out.”
She then looked at the clothes on the shelf, “pick one that’s suitable for Qing’er.”
Li Xiao paused and nodded.
Then, he thought about Xiao Qing’s height and body shape and chose a set of coarse clothes for him.
The two sets of clothes cost Lin Xiaoyue a total of 8 taels.
After paying, they left.
“Ready-made clothes are indeed expensive. Later, I will buy more fabric and ask mom to make more. Let’s try not to buy ready-made clothes in the future.”
“Just a set of clothes to change into is enough.” Li Xiao said hurriedly.
He had spent another 8 taels. He hadn’t even done anything for the Liu family, but he already used more money.
“Hehe, it’s not just you two who need clothes. We don’t have enough clothes too.”
Lin Xiaoyue mumbled, “also, embroidery hurts the eyes. I have to find something else for her to do so she doesn’t have to think about embroidering pouches all day long.”
Li Xiao could not refute her anymore.
Then, they went to the fabric shop.
The price of fabric was not cheap either. Considering the family’s expenses and the busy work they had to do during the construction of the house, Lin Xiaoyue chose the cheapest coarse cloth.
After buying enough for five people, she asked the shop assistant to help send the cloth to the ox-cart.
Then, Lin Xiaoyue brought Li Xiao to the market.
She bought a rattan backpack, two wicker baskets, and a carrying pole.
After that, she bought steamed buns, vegetables, meat, and so on, until the ox-cart was almost full.
When Li Xiao asked if they could leave, Lin Xiaoyue looked at the watch in her interspatial ring before she got on the ox-cart.
“Let’s go home.” They hadn’t done much in the morning, but it was almost 11 o’clock.
It was too early to go to Ruyi Restaurant at this time, and she felt that the weather was too hot to stroll on the streets.
Since it was only a half an hour’s ride back to Daishi Village, she might as well go back with Li Xiao.
After lunch, she would come to town in the afternoon to teach Liang Chengcai.
“Yes.” Li Xiao finally heaved a sigh of relief and quickly rode the cart towards the city gate.
On the way, Lin Xiaoyue broke some branches to cover her and Li Xiao’s heads from the sun. She talked to Li Xiao like a chatterbox the whole journey.
When Liu Shi saw that her daughter had bought so many things, she muttered a few words. Seeing that the things were all useful, she did not say anything more.
Then, she listened to Lin Xiaoyue while she cooked.
Li Xiao unloaded the carriage and led the ox to the back to rest.
After that, she went to see Xiao Qing and helped him change his clothes.
Xiao Qing’s condition was much better now. After changing, he asked Li Xiao to help him back to the house to have lunch with everyone.
Smelling the fragrant aroma of the dishes, Xiao Qing walked hurriedly.
But when he was eating, Lin Xiaoyue did not let him touch the chili and greasy meat.
Hence, he could only watch as everyone ate the meat while he ate his vegetable omelet.
Xiao Qing suddenly felt that perhaps he would feel better if he ate separately.
