Xiaoguo kept apologizing with a smile on her face, and the people who had gathered finally dispersed. After they left, Xiaoguo finally breathed a sigh of relief. What a morning.

I had originally planned to sell out by noon, but I sold out in the morning. Now I can rush to the market and go back early. Zhuangzhuang must be missing me a lot.

Xiao Guo was so happy that his hands moved briskly. After a while, he loaded the cart and drove the donkey cart towards a secluded road. He stopped when he saw that there was no one around. He opened his purse and counted the money he had earned. The scattered silver made the purse full. Xiao Guo counted them one by one, a total of five taels and six cents. Xiao Guo took out another purse that he had prepared, took out six cents and put them into it, and tied the remaining money with a rope and put it into the pocket of his underwear. He stuffed the remaining six cents into his coat and used it to buy things soon.

After hiding the silver, he drove the donkey cart towards the market. On the way, he was still thinking about Zhuangzhuang, and wondered if he had eaten his meals obediently.

The donkey cart rattled to the entrance of the market but could not go in. He got off the cart, tied it to a tree and went in. It was still early, so Xiaoguo wandered from house to house, thinking about what he needed to buy. He had to buy books, paper and pens for Zhuangzhuang. He also had to buy some cloth to make clothes for Zhuangzhuang, shoes for Zhuangzhuang, some vegetable seeds, and some fresh vegetables...

Xiaoguo was very excited to go shopping in ancient times for the first time. Last time, she was too shy to buy anything because she had too much money in her pocket. This time, she had money in her pocket and wanted to buy a lot.

The wide variety of vegetables and steaming hot snacks made Xiaoguo feel very comfortable while shopping.

Prices are ridiculously low these days, and you can buy a lot of things with just a few cents. Last time I was wandering around, I met a cloth seller, and one meter of cloth was only five cents. This time I must buy more things.

First they came to the bookstore. Xiaoguo was greeted as soon as she entered. The greeter saw that Xiaoguo was dressed like a country woman but did not criticize her. Instead, he patiently asked about what she wanted to buy. Xiaoguo was very satisfied with her expression and did not look down on her.

"Just these three." Xiaoguo pointed at the three books the man mentioned. Just now Xiaoguo asked him about enlightenment books, and he recommended Hundred Family Surnames, Thousand Character Classic and Three Character Classic.

The man packed the three books neatly and continued to ask Xiaoguo if there was anything else she needed. Xiaoguo looked around and asked for a roll of homemade rice paper and some writing brush and ink. Homemade paper is relatively cheaper and one can just cut it up at home and it has the same use.

The man packed the things, handed them to Xiaoguo and said, "Fifty cents in total."

Xiaoguo paid the money and left, put the money into the basket he carried with him and continued to the next place. He walked along the shops and came to the cloth shop. As soon as Xiaoguo entered, one of the shop assistants lazily opened his eyelids and looked at her. There was a strong look of disgust in his eyes. Xiaoguo frowned but did not take it seriously. It turned out that this kind of people does not recognize the times.

When Xiaoguo was strolling around, the shop assistants ignored her at first, but Xiaoguo didn't get angry and continued shopping. This store was the largest and most affordable in the market, as Mrs. Yang had said last time.

After a while, the woman came out of the house. When she saw Xiaoguo, she hurriedly came up to him and asked him what he needed with a smile on his face. Xiaoguo looked at the person in front of him and told her what he wanted.

"I need fabric to make clothes for the little boy."

After hearing this, the woman skillfully took Xiaoguo to another area and said kindly, "These are all fabrics that can be made for boys. The colors are not bright, and the fabrics are very durable."

Xiao Guo just fell in love with a piece of cloth here. "How much is this one?" Xiao Guo asked, pointing at a piece of navy blue cloth.

"This is the latest piece of cloth we bought. We are the only one in the market that has it. It costs two cents a foot."

Xiao Guo thought it was okay, "Then give me three feet, and this piece of cloth three feet, and this piece three feet too."

Xiaoguo asked for three pieces of cloth in one breath, "By the way, do you have any close-fitting fabric?" Thinking that the outer fabric for the bra was ready, he still had to prepare the inner fabric.

"Yes, yes." The woman greeted Xiao Guo warmly and led Xiao Guo to another piece of cloth, "The cloth here is close-fitting.
