"I've heard them talk about it. I knew someone who went to buy something, and the price was three hundred taels of silver. Guess how much she bargained down?"
Zhou Jie shook her head, and Du Linlang looked over curiously as well.
"Ten taels."
"She just said she didn't want it anymore, it was just a casual remark. The stall owner then asked her to add two taels of silver to keep it, and she kept walking, and that's how the deal was made."
This is a true story. In their past life, they went shopping and saw a pair of pants that they thought were nice. The price was 388. At that time, Han Luoxue was still a student and never thought of buying such expensive pants, so she was about to leave.
The stall owner asked her how much she wanted, and she casually said ten yuan. Who would have thought that they would actually make a deal?
She never imagined she could repay so much money.
"this……"
Both of them were covered in cold sweat; this was too intense.
"However, bargaining isn't always appropriate. For example, in our shop, if you bargain like that, they might kick you out."
The two laughed heartily, realizing it was indeed true.
"On another note, the old man only asked for more money because he saw that we were dressed well and that we were from well-off families. If it were an ordinary person, he probably would have only asked for a few dozen or a hundred coins."
Zhou Jie still didn't believe it, so she asked her maid to find someone to go and test it.
The three continued shopping, and when they bought things, Zhou Jie and Du Linlang learned to haggle fiercely.
Although they are all rich, women find joy in haggling, but who understands?
Soon, the girl returned, saying that the money was seventy or eighty coins, and over a hundred for the nicer ones.
Just as Han Luoxue had predicted.
Zhou Jie's face darkened:
Do I look like a sucker?
I'm so angry. She's a businesswoman, she's been traveling with her brother since she was little, how did she end up like this...?
She was a little unconvinced, but if it weren't for Xue'er speaking up, she really would have bought a hairpin for ten taels of silver.
They really did become suckers.
Just thinking about it makes me feel a bit frustrated.
"Alright, you haven't been to these kinds of stalls much before, you'll get used to it."
These words made Zhou Jie feel a little better.
Yes, it's not her fault, we can't blame her.
Later, they saw many other good things and the three of them had a great time buying them.
"I've realized I've really wasted my life. These things are so much better, why did I buy the expensive ones?"
Zhou Jie was filled with emotion, while Han Luoxue smiled and noticed that in addition to the locals setting up stalls, there were also shops around.
Moreover, the shop is doing quite well, with a lot of people coming and going.
There are also a few snack shops.
"We've been walking around for so long, shall we go get something to eat?"
Han Luoxue couldn't keep up with hunger, and when she saw a snack shop, she couldn't wait to go in.
"Okay, I'm hungry too."
Zhou Jie is also a foodie, so naturally she had to go too.
Du Linlang was easier to talk to and didn't object.
This is a noodle shop. They ordered six bowls. The three girls who had been following them were also tired.
"Ouch, my foot hurts a bit." Zhou Jie rubbed her leg, her face scrunched up.
I didn't feel it while shopping, but now that I've stopped, I realize my legs are sore.
The maidservant rushed forward, wanting to help her massage, but Zhou Jie waved her hand:
"It's alright, it'll be fine in a bit. You guys go ahead and eat."
Walking is quite physically demanding, and even Han Luoxue, who usually doesn't eat much, ate a large bowl this time.
"Alas, it's a pity it's not as delicious as yours."
Zhou Jie touched her belly and felt that the pork bone noodles made by Han Luoxue were still the best.
Han Luoxue smiled. She had just looked at this street and wondered if it was usually crowded.
Han Luoxue called the boss over and asked:
Are there usually a lot of people here?
"Madam, there are usually quite a few people here, but it certainly can't compare to the temple fair."
"Actually, whether it's a temple fair or not, it doesn't have a big impact on shops like ours. Madam, as you can see, this is noodles. It's not only cheap, but it's also filling. We usually have quite a few customers here."
The shopkeeper was in his forties. It must be a husband-and-wife shop, and his wife was watching the stove over there.
"OK, thanks."
"Little Xue'er, do you have any good ideas?"
Zhou Jie asked curiously.
Han Luoxue smiled and said, "Let's go."
She had ideas, but wasn't in a hurry. She wasn't finished with her current tasks, and she was quite far along in her pregnancy, so she decided to wait until after the baby was born.
"Snow Girl".
Han Luoxue had just stepped outside when she suddenly heard someone calling her.
Upon seeing who it was, Han Luoxue's expression turned cold.
"Little Xue, are you here to visit the temple fair too?"
Madam Chi was surprised to see Han Luoxue.
"Um."
That's really bad luck.
Han Luoxue had no desire to have anything to do with them.
"Snow Girl, I've locked Chi Ling'er up."
Han Luoxue was stunned, somewhat confused about what Old Madam Chi meant.
Is she trying to please me? But what was she doing back then? And even if she locks him up now, does that prove she's doing it to avenge her mother?
Han Luoxue looked at them calmly. There were two elderly people, four children, and a few girls. It seemed like quite a few people.
They're quite impressive; they have a lot of kids.
“Snow Girl, I know we were wrong in the past, but…”
"What does this have to do with me? Madam, please move aside, we're going shopping."
What is the greatest pain in life? It's wanting to explain yourself to others, but they don't even have the desire to listen.
Looking at Han Luoxue's icy face, Old Madam Chi felt a sharp pain in her heart.
“I’ve already locked her up. Xue’er, I know she was wrong before. Don’t worry, I will help your mother get justice.”
"I don't need your help!"
Han Luoxue suddenly raised her head, her eyes fixed on the aged Madam Chi, her voice cold and devoid of emotion: "If you really care, hand her over to me!"
Old Madam Chi staggered slightly. Based on her understanding of Han Luoxue, she knew that Chi Ling'er would definitely not have a good time in Han Luoxue's hands.
"You, Xue girl, you..."
"Grandma, who is this?"
A child next to Madam Chi tugged at her hand, his voice sweet and childlike.
"This is your cousin."
"Cousin? Grandma, DouDou doesn't want a cousin. Cousins are all bad."
“My cousin Qingqing used to bully me all the time.”
Hearing the child's innocent voice, Madam Chi looked embarrassed and hurriedly explained, "This is your cousin Xue'er, she's not the same as Qingqing."
The child who was speaking tilted his head and shook it repeatedly: "Is this my aunt's child?"
He had obviously heard about Yunniang's story.
"Yes!"
"I don't want my aunt, and I don't want my cousin! They're all bad people; they're here to steal my money. Grandma, I don't want them!"
Hearing this, Han Luoxue smiled and said, "Did you hear that? Old Madam Chi, you should try to coax your little grandson instead."
