Chapter 023: Having that fashion sense
The bedding in the department store was too expensive. She remembered that there was a store specializing in bedding at the train station, so she decided to buy it there.
Back at the train station, Zhang Minmin was very excited. There is no young girl who doesn't like clothes.
This was her first time in Yuan County, and she discovered that this place was indeed much larger and more prosperous than their own county seat.
Although most of the clothing stores at the train station are mid- to low-end, there are also some nice boutique women's clothing stores.
Zhang Minmin couldn't stop shopping. One women's clothing store had already put out the first batch of autumn clothes. She caught her eye at first sight: a burgundy shirt with ruffled cuffs and a small stand-up collar. After trying it on, she loved it.
"Third aunt is so pretty." Shuo Shuo was the first to praise.
"You have a sweet mouth." Zhang Minmin blushed and asked Bai Jingsi, "Does it look good?"
Bai Jingsi pushed up his glasses and said, "It looks good. I'll buy it."
When I asked about the price, since it was a new model, the owner didn't ask for a high price and just gave me a flat price of 88 yuan.
Zhang Minmin took a breath of cold air:
"It's too expensive. I won't buy it."
As he said this, he was about to change it.
Bai Zhenzhu brought over a light khaki windbreaker:
"Third sister-in-law, try putting on this coat."
Zhang Minmin's eyes lit up when she saw the windbreaker, but the shirt was so expensive, so the windbreaker must be even more expensive.
"I won't try it. This store is too expensive." Zhang Minmin whispered to Bai Zhenzhu.
Unexpectedly, the lady boss had sharp ears and heard it. She laughed and said:
"Girl, there are cheap ones next door but you don't like them. My clothes are indeed expensive, but you get what you pay for."
As he said that, he took the clothes from Bai Zhenzhu and put them directly on Zhang Minmin:
"It's free to try it on. You're pretty and have a great figure. Try it on and let me see how I like my taste in choosing goods."
It can be seen that the proprietress is a straightforward person.
Zhang Minmin put on the windbreaker and everyone's eyes lit up.
Bai Zhenzhu reminded again: "Third sister-in-law, tuck your shirt into your pants."
Zhang Minmin was wearing a pair of black pants today. With her shirt tucked in, she looked neat and tidy. With her windbreaker, she looked like a girl in a magazine.
The proprietress clapped her hands excitedly:
"Oh, this is better looking than what I put together myself."
Zhang Minmin was surprised when she looked at herself in the mirror. She was so fashionable.
Then he looked at Bai Jingsi embarrassedly.
Bai Jingsi smiled and said, "Buy it."
The boss lady took out a calculator:
"Well, I won't make any more money from you. I'll give you 68 for the shirt and 108 for the windbreaker, a total of 176. If you match them well, I'll give you the remainder. You can take 170 now."
Zhang Minmin has been working for a year, and her monthly salary is only 255 yuan. She really can't bear to spend 170 yuan on a set of clothes.
"Madam boss, please make it cheaper. This is too expensive."
Zhang Minmin touched the windbreaker on her body and found that the workmanship and materials were indeed very good. Most importantly, this style was the first time she had seen it. It must be the latest model from the big city.
"It's impossible to be cheap. Summer shirts cost forty or fifty yuan each, and this one has long sleeves. And the goods here are all brought back from Guangzhou. The big stars in Hong Kong all wear them. Take this windbreaker for example. You can definitely wear it for ten or eight years."
Seeing that she obviously liked it, the proprietress took a silk scarf from the shelf next to the counter:
"Well, I'll give you a silk scarf. You can tie it around your neck or your head."
As she spoke, the proprietress folded the scarf and tied it on Zhang Minmin's head, like a headband, which really looked nice.
The proprietress then said to Bai Zhenzhu who was standing beside her:
"Sister, aren't you going to choose a set? You look so cute, isn't it a waste if you don't dress up properly?"
The proprietress seemed to be in her twenties, with the popular big wavy hair and wearing makeup.
She was wearing a white V-neck sleeveless long dress, a red belt around her waist, and big red hoop earrings, just like the fashionable girls on TV.
Bai Zhenzhu was still wearing her old shirt with a white background and a small orchid pattern, and on her feet were the cloth shoes she had made herself.
Zhang Minmin also said:
"Yes, Pearl, you can choose a few too."
As he spoke, he enthusiastically helped Bai Zhenzhu with advice.
Bai Zhenzhu was only busy buying things for her family and had forgotten to buy one for herself.
It just so happened that the clothes in this store suited her aesthetic taste, so she picked up a few pieces.
Three short-sleeved shirts, a white shirt with a large lapel, two pairs of fashion pants, one black and one white, and a yellow suit jacket.
When she came out from behind the curtain wearing white pants, a white shirt with a large lapel and a yellow suit jacket, everyone's eyes were fixed on her.
"Mom, you are so beautiful."
It was the first time Shuo Shuo saw a mother like this and he jumped with excitement.
Zhang Minmin was also amazed:
"Pearl, you are prettier than any movie star. It turns out that the collar of your shirt can be turned inside out."
The proprietress grabbed Bai Zhenzhu's hand as if she had discovered a great treasure:
"Sister, come and sell clothes with me. I'll pay you. You're so good at it."
She had noticed from the outfit Bai Zhenzhu had put together for Zhang Minmin just now that this fair-skinned girl had a very sharp taste, just as the magazines said, she had that fashion sense.
This is a talent.
Bai Zhenzhu pursed her lips and smiled:
"Thank you, Madam boss, for thinking highly of me. I am also planning to open a restaurant."
The lady boss looked regretful and frantically recommended her own autumn clothes:
"Then try a few more pieces, just try them randomly, let me see how you match them. If my business is good, I will come back to support your restaurant."
Bai Zhenzhu thought that the proprietress was a nice person, and that she was unfamiliar with Yuan County, so it would be nice to make a friend.
Seeing that there was still time, she put on a few more sets of clothes, each of which was in line with the aesthetic tastes of the boss lady and Zhang Minmin.
In the end, in addition to the items she had chosen before, Bai Zhenzhu asked for a set of denim jeans, a sweater, and two short-sleeved T-shirts.
"Sister, go buy a few more pairs of shoes and get your hair permed. You'll look stunning when you dress up like this. By the way, I know the owner of a shoe store. I'll take you there later and ask him to give you a discount."
Bai Zhenzhu smiled and said, "Okay."
The proprietress started to count the bill. Seeing that they bought a lot, she gave Zhang Minmin a ten-dollar discount on her set. Together with the items bought by Bai Zhenzhu, the total was 1,186 yuan, and after rounding off the decimals, it was 1,180 yuan.
She also gave Bai Zhenzhu several scarves, headbands and hairpins.
"Sister, my name is Xia He. I've made you my friend. Come to the store more often when you have nothing to do. Don't worry, I won't make money from you."
Bai Zhenzhu silently calculated in her mind that if these clothes were brought back all the way from Yangcheng, the boss lady would not be making that much money, so she paid for them readily.
"Okay, sister. I'll come play with you later."
Zhang Minmin quickly handed over her 160 yuan, but Bai Zhenzhu signaled to the proprietress not to take it.
"Third sister-in-law, I'll pay."
"That won't work. I can't take advantage of you."
Bai Zhenzhu said, "We are all family, so don't be polite to me."
After paying the money, the proprietress took Bai Zhenzhu to a shoe store, where she chose three pairs of shoes.
A pair of high-top casual shoes, a pair of leather shoes, and a pair of white sneakers.
The price is also very reasonable.
When passing by a children's clothing store, Bai Zhenzhu went in and picked out two sets of clothes for Shuo Shuo. This time, Zhang Minmin rushed to pay without waiting for her to take out her bag.
