After deciding on the fabric, Lin Mo said to the boss, "Boss, pack up the pieces I just looked at."
"Okay, little brother, you have good taste. These are all new cloths that have just been woven in the store, and you liked them at first sight. Wait a minute, I will arrange for someone to pack them for you."
When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately came over with a smile to entertain Lin Mo and the others.
Lin Mo selected the best materials in her shop. Most of the customers were villagers from nearby, and most of them bought linen and coarse cloth. This order from Lin Mo could be considered a big business.
"Then I'll give you one of each of these three." Lin Mo had just finished speaking when he felt the little hand he was holding squeeze him tightly. Lin Mo's heart trembled, and he asked gently, "What's wrong?"
Su Mu met his deep gaze and gentle look, licked his lips uncomfortably, and whispered, "No need for so much, this is very expensive." He was still worried that Lin Mo would spend money indiscriminately.
Lin Mo smiled and nodded: "Not much, this is what I should buy."
"You're always so extravagant. No matter how much money you have, it's never enough for you."
"Then after we get married, you will take care of the money and I will be responsible for making money."
After he said this, Su Mu felt shy and embarrassed again. She rolled her eyes at him and simply stopped talking. Lin Mo looked at his shy look and felt more and more itchy in his heart. If there weren't so many people watching, he would have wanted to pinch his little face.
The proprietress packed the cloth attentively and said, "My dear little brother, you really do love your husband. If these batches of cloth are made into clothes, your husband will definitely look good in them."
Lin Mo nodded, quite appreciative of the proprietress who was so talkative: "That's right, my husband looks great in anything he wears."
The proprietress pulled the corners of her mouth awkwardly. For the sake of this business, she could only force herself to smile and continue to compliment the customer against her will a few more times before she started to settle the bill.
"A foot of cloth costs twelve wen, and a bolt of cloth costs four hundred and eighty wen. This silk material is more expensive, thirty-three wen a foot."
Lin Mo calculated in his mind that in this era, a piece of cloth was forty feet long, which could be used to make four sets of underwear for an adult man, and three sets of long gowns.
Converted to that, a set cost just over a hundred coins. The fabrics of the ready-made clothes he had bought before were all of relatively good quality.
But the cheapest set costs 180 coins. If you calculate it this way, it is really cost-effective to do it yourself.
"Little brother, if you like any of these ready-made clothes, you can tell me and I will take them down for you to see slowly." Seeing Lin Mo's eyes fall on the ready-made clothes at the door, the proprietress's eyes moved, and she turned around and began to introduce the ready-made clothes.
"These ready-made clothes are all similar in style. I'm mainly selling the same material, but you don't have to worry about the workmanship. They're all made by the embroiderers in my own embroidery studio. A set of coarse cloth costs ninety coins, linen a hundred coins, and fine cotton and linen a hundred to two hundred coins."
Su Mu's eyes widened, and he sighed inwardly, "How expensive!" Looking at Lin Mo, he saw that he was still enthusiastically following the boss lady's instructions, so he could only carefully tug at the corner of his clothes.
Lin Mo understood, turned around and smiled at him, and said in a magnetic voice, "Get these two for my husband."
When he returned to the village, he only bought ready-made clothes for the Lin brothers. When he brought Su Mu back, he didn't bring any clothes with him. Until now, he has been wearing another set of Lin Sheng's new clothes.
"Making clothes takes time. I'll buy you two sets first. When I get the fabric back, I'll ask my brother to make you new ones."
Lin Mo chose two sets of fine cotton clothes. The stitching of the clothes was very well done, the fabric was cut very smoothly, and there were no leftover materials mixed in. He liked them at first sight.
"Lin... Lin Mo, just buy a new set. The one I was wearing before can still be worn after washing." Su Mu's face flushed, and his voice was hoarse as if it had been rubbed by gravel, and a hint of embarrassment could be heard.
Lin Mo shook his head and said firmly, "That won't work. Your injuries have just healed. The material of those clothes is abrasive. Try these two softer ones first."
Then he said seriously to the proprietress, "In addition to the two sets of ready-made clothes, socks, belts and hairbands must also be matched."
Su Mu: “…”
Su Mu didn't know how to refuse. He opened his mouth, but in the end he could only sigh quietly. The clothes he wore when he came to the Lin family were already his best ones.
Because he was going to be sent to the Wang family, his mother prepared a new set of clothes for him. Although it was altered from his brother's old clothes, it was indeed his only new set of clothes.
Su Mu pursed his lips as his rough palm stroked the fine garment. His usually cold and hard face softened a little, and even the tip of his nose began to feel sore.
As the two were talking, the proprietress had already calculated the bill. She bared her yellow teeth and said with a smile, "Little brother, three bolts of cloth, half a bolt of silk, and two sets of fine cotton garments, a total of 2,380 coins. I'll round it up to 2,300 coins. Next time, you better come to my shop more often. I'll give you a discount."
"That's great, thank you very much, big sister, I will definitely come again next time." Lin Mo also had a smile on his face.
After paying the bill swiftly, Lin Mo continued, "My husband and I have other things to do. The shopkeeper will pack it up and send it to the oxcart parking area at the town gate."
There is a small open space at the town gate with many ox carts parked there. The merchants in the town all know this place. If they buy a lot of things, they can easily deliver them to the village, not to mention the town gate.
"Okay, no problem. I'll have someone pack it up and send it to the town gate for you, little brother."
The proprietress's face was full of enthusiasm. She called out to the inner hall, and a thin waiter came out and neatly tied together all the cloth and garments that Lin Mo wanted.
Lin Mo did not delay and took out some silver and handed it to the proprietress. After getting the change, he pulled the person out the door.
The way the two of them were whispering to each other was seen by all the women present. They all envied Su Mu for having a husband who doted on her so much, but most of them were shocked because Su Mu was an ugly guy.
Lin Mo's appearance has changed a lot compared to before. He used to be thin and shriveled, and his ribs could be seen when he took off his clothes. However, even when Su Mu was wearing clothes, you could see how well-defined his muscles were.
In order to catch up with his wife's figure, he has been deliberately doing muscle-building exercises during this period. Coupled with eating well and sleeping well, he has become much stronger.
Although the muscles under his clothes are not perfect, his appearance is better than most of the men in the village because of his height.
As for Su Mu, he also had a strong body and dark skin due to years of hard work. In the eyes of these women, the two of them were not a good match at all!
Who would have thought that such an ugly guy would not only get married, but his wife would also be so loving and caring!
Even these elderly women began to envy them.
Among them was Su Yunqiu, who had just married into the town. He almost didn't recognize Su Mu when he saw her.
