The remaining 160 coins were wrapped in a cloth bag and planned to be used for purchasing things later.
At this moment, the morning light was dim, and the three classmates in the same dormitory, like Chu Qi, got up early and prepared to go home.
Chu Qi walked into the dim light and first went to the steamed bun shop to buy two steamed buns. Then she went to the cloth shop where she had checked the prices yesterday afternoon to buy some cloth.
Linen and coarse cloth were uncomfortable to wear, but Chu Qi had no intention of letting her family down on this point.
