The proprietress enthusiastically led Xiaoqi and Mier to the inner room, only to find that the store was very deep and there were actually two rooms inside.
There is a whole room full of the ancient style clothes that Xiaoqi wants. They should be counterfeit Hanfu, performance costumes and so on.
"Which one do you want? We have single pieces and batches. They are enough for one show. If you want batches, the price can be more favorable." The proprietress saw that the two people were undecided and thought they were here to choose the costumes for a group performance, so she introduced them enthusiastically.
Xiao Qi shook her head. The clothes here were indeed ancient in style, but they were colorful, which reminded her of the feeling of herself playing the role of the tree.
It would be quite embarrassing to go on stage, and I would probably wear the same clothes as the other dancers.
"Anything else?" Xiao Qi asked.
Ancient style Hanfu including dance costumes are all here. Hanfu is quite popular for renting by some young girls who take photos. She has also received a new batch of people at the beginning of the school year, and there are no other ones.
"Is there any gentleman who wants to see it?" the proprietress asked helplessly.
Xiao Qi nodded.
Continue walking inside.
There are floor-to-ceiling windows inside and you can see Enhua Lake. You can walk right through it. The house is built in a rather strange way.
There are some men's suits inside. Maybe there are fewer men's suits on loan, so the boss put them at the innermost part.
Tuxedoes, suits, and top hats. Xiao Qi walked around and saw a few robes in the corner that looked pretty good. The material looked heavy. She asked Mi Er, "How about this one?"
Mi'er had a bit of blind admiration for her deskmate, and she didn't offer any advice. She just followed her deskmate in choosing. She was a bit surprised to see her deskmate actually asking about these robes.
I touched the material and it felt pretty good, at least better than those performance costumes and Hanfu sold outside.
The proprietress saw the two young girls standing in front of the robes and quickly stepped forward to boast, "You have good taste! This batch is new, the material is top-notch, and it's specially made. These days, it's not the old-fashioned wedding style where the groom wears a long robe and a jacket, which is very impressive. Look at the material, the drape, the texture, the color..."
The lady boss said as she shook the clothes...
It looks quite thick, and there is lining inside, so it doesn't wrinkle.
Although they are for men, most of the men in Mengshi are thin and not as tall as men in the north, so the clothes the boss lady buys are not big in size.
Xiaoqi chose a pair of smoky gray with a hint of light blue, and took it to the fitting room to try it on. It was okay. Fortunately, she was not too short now, so most of her ankles could be exposed, like the length of cropped pants. She planned to sit on the stage, so she would not look like a child wearing adult clothes.
Moreover, she has short hair and a long neck, so she looks very handsome in this robe, especially the buttons at the neck, which can be buttoned up to reveal a part of her fair neck. The sleeves need to be folded, and the lining is dark blue, so it doesn't look ugly when exposed. Xiaoqi tried it on and decided to take this one.
When the proprietress saw that the little girl had made her choice, she started to praise it to the skies again.
The rental price was three hundred yuan a day, and then Mier bargained the price down to one hundred and twenty yuan.
Xiao Qi: ...
She admired Mi'er very much. She could bargain and even get a lower price after cutting the price in half. She was simply unbeatable.
Although the proprietress looked exaggerated as she was beating her chest and stamping her feet when she left, she still had a smile on her face, and it was obvious that she didn't lose out.
On the way back, Mi'er explained to Xiaoqi, "The material of this robe is quite good, the buttons are well made, and the hems are indeed hand-sewn. However, the cost is only two or three hundred yuan at most. The boss lady charges the same price for renting it once as for buying it. She's too ruthless. At one hundred and twenty yuan, she's still making a profit."
Xiaoqi knew that the purpose of doing business was to make money, but it was still difficult for her to bargain.
Perhaps it was because of the different family backgrounds and upbringings of the two. Xiaoqi watched his father selling bamboo winnowing baskets and other things at very cheap prices, and he always wanted to bargain down the price, so he always felt that it was not good to bargain down the price.
Mi'er's family owns a factory, and they are used to arguing with suppliers, bargaining, and discussing costs every day.
In the next two days, Xiaoqi did not go to the part-time job, and Wei Cheng went instead.
She just attends classes on time, and then insists on running, practicing calligraphy, and memorizing words every day, while also learning all the courses she needs to learn.
In fact, all subjects are easiest at the beginning of the school year. With a good start, learning will not be difficult later.
If you don't lay a solid foundation at the beginning, it will become harder and harder to learn in the future.
The beginning is very important, and compared to high school, there are actually not many courses in college. Instead, everyone is busy with clubs, student unions and other social activities, and the actual class time does not actually account for the majority.
However, compared with other students who participated in various activities, Xiaoqi, the study committee member who reported to evening self-study on time every day, obviously seemed a bit nerdy. Being nerdy could be considered a compliment in high school, but it is really not the case in college. He can only study and can't do anything else. Obviously, he will not be able to get along well in society.
After being poor, having to work part-time to pay for his studies, taking advantage of others, eating his roommates' food, being the center of attention, and actively adding teachers on WeChat, Xiao Qi earned the nickname "nerd" for being a bookworm who only knew how to study...
Some of these little ones knew, some didn't, but even if they knew, they would just laugh it off.
She was severely neglected in high school and was used to feeling like an invisible ordinary person. She didn't feel that she was any different in college. Studying hard and making progress every day was her current life motto, and she didn't pay too much attention to others.
Mid-Autumn Festival is here in a blink of an eye, Friday afternoon.
Xiaoqi needs to go to rehearsal. Fortunately, the school is closed that day, otherwise he would have to take a leave of absence.
Xiaoqi feels that it is a loss to take leave from classes in order to participate in an activity. After all, he has paid so much tuition to teach at Enhua and has been taking classes for such a long time. Xiaoqi feels that overall, the hardware is good, the software is actually very good, and the faculty is very good. Although the composition of the teachers is a bit complicated, other universities may not have so many retired teachers who have been re-employed from top domestic universities to teach. Any of these teachers is a treasure.
There are also teachers from Qingmeng University who come here to work part-time, which means they enjoy half the treatment of Qingmeng University. Although the young teachers are weaker, they are still quite passionate. There are also many foreign teachers. The overall teaching staff is actually very strong. These are all advantages.
Her roommates wanted to accompany Xiaoqi to the rehearsal, but Xiaoqi refused. After all, it was just a rehearsal, and she thought it would just be a formality with waiting in line and such, which would be a waste of time. She really hoped that all her roommates would go to the competition in the evening.
Xiaoqi is relatively low-key and did not promote herself in class. College students are all very busy and there is no need to do so. The demo clip in the promotional video is very short and the lighting is very dim, so probably not many people would recognize her.
So in the afternoon, Wei Cheng went to the horse farm to work, and Yunshu went to the flower arrangement club. She has been quite fascinated by flower arrangement recently, and ordered some more flowers. The dormitory was filled with fragrance all day long.
As for Mi'er, the student union had something to do, and Xiaoqi just found out that the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala's Top Ten Singer Competition was jointly organized by the student union and the music club, so Mi'er and Xiaoqi were both on the same way and were going to the indoor gymnasium.
