Chapter 36: I thought the story of the real and fake heiress had come true.
After deducting the transportation costs, the money spent on roast chicken on the train, and the money spent on meals over the past few days...
Oh, I just gave Guo Hong fifteen yuan for childcare.
Xie Zhizhi counted; she had a little over forty yuan left.
"Forty-something," Xie Zhizhi looked down at her clothes, which were covered in patches, and she actually wanted to buy two new outfits.
He's dressed so shabbily right now.
This is all the money I have right now...
Forget it, let's focus on making money first!
Now that she's finally back in this golden age, it's time for her to show her skills!
Thinking about how she might make a fortune in the future, Xie Zhizhi rubbed her hands together excitedly.
In her previous life, she was a national-level inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of filigree inlay. Relying on her ancestral skills, she won many international awards for her jewelry designs.
Go buy some tools and start making some filigree jewelry, beginning as a small business owner!
With the remaining money in her hand, Xie Zhizhi went out.
When I returned, it was already evening, and it was almost dark outside.
When she went downstairs carrying her things, she ran into Wen Jinzhou, who had come to ask her to go get lunch together.
Wen Jinzhou asked her, "What did you buy?"
As he spoke, he reached out to take the things from her back.
Xie Zhizhi was carrying a snakeskin bag, which contained quite a lot of things, and it was quite heavy.
Xie Zhizhi put down what she was holding and said, "I bought some things for making handicrafts."
"Handicrafts?"
You know how to do this?
Xie Zhizhi nodded, "Yes, I learned it from someone before."
"What kind of handicrafts are they?" Wen Jinzhou asked with great interest.
"Filigree inlay, do you know this?"
"Filigree inlay?" Wen Jinzhou had never heard of it before.
"Yes, that is, using gold and silver wires and the filigree technique to make beautiful gold and silver jewelry."
Wen Jinzhou subconsciously looked back at the snakeskin bag on his back.
Xie Zhizhi followed his gaze and quickly explained, "Don't misunderstand, I definitely don't have that much money to buy gold and silver wire, I bought copper wire."
Wen Jinzhou patted his chest, "I thought I was carrying gold and silver, I was too scared to walk."
"If it gets bumped or scratched, I'll be in big trouble."
Xie Zhizhi waved her hand, "No, I'm not that rich!"
She also wanted to say: Look, I'm still wearing these patched clothes!
How tragic!
But Xie Zhizhi is a person with a strong sense of boundaries, and knows what to say to whom, so she didn't complain to Wen Jinzhou.
Although she didn't complain to Wen Jinzhou, he asked her, "Zhizhi, are you busy tomorrow?"
"It's okay," she said. Tomorrow she plans to make butterfly hair clips, which were popular in this era, in her dorm room and then take them to the city to sell to little girls.
"I'm off tomorrow!" Wen Jinzhou said.
Before Xie Zhizhi could speak, Wen Jinzhou looked at the patches on her clothes and said with heartache, "Zhizhi, shall I take you to the city to buy clothes tomorrow?"
Wen Jinzhou: Such a well-behaved girl, how come the entire Xie family is all out of their minds?
Look what they've done to this pretty young girl!
A pretty little girl should have many pretty dresses, just like his sister.
After Wen Jinzhou finished speaking, fearing that she might feel embarrassed or misunderstand something, he added, "Look, I'm a bit older than you, and you're like a little sister to me. It's not too much for me, as your older brother, to buy you two pieces of clothing, is it?"
Xie Zhizhi: It's not too much for anyone to buy me clothes, it's just...
Xie Zhizhi touched her face, not so thick-skinned as to say, "I can't accept a reward without merit, that's... not good."
"What's wrong with that?"
"Didn't we get along really well together?"
"Even if we're friends, what's wrong with me giving you a couple of pieces of clothing?"
"Anyway, no one else is spending my money, so what's wrong with you spending it?"
Xie Zhizhi "..."
He's a good person, a really good person.
Besides, they've been so sincere; if we just refuse them outright, it might hurt their feelings.
Xie Zhizhi looked at her tattered clothes again. "Actually, I like you as a friend too, but I feel bad taking things from others for free."
"How about this, consider the money for the clothes a loan to you, and I'll pay you back when I earn the money."
"If you agree, I'll buy it; if you don't, I can't accept it."
Wen Jinzhou thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, but please don't rush to pay me back. I really have no one to spend my money."
Xie Zhizhi: Are you using this to test poor people?
Besides, I'll spend it all on you! /(ćoć)/~~
Xie Zhizhi nodded vigorously, "Buy, buy, buy! I'll go buy it tomorrow!"
Anyone who wants to cosplay as a beggar is just short of money!
If there's a rich guy like me, I have to buy it!
The next morning, Wen Jinzhou came to pick up Xie Zhizhi and brought her a big meat bun.
Zhou Lin and Wen Jinzhou's comrades, who were familiar with each other, said, "It's over. If Commander Zhou doesn't come back soon, his wife will really be stolen away."
Wen Jinzhou probably really has nowhere to spend his money.
He took Xie Zhizhi shopping for clothes and bought two sets of clothes that were suitable for the current weather. He also suggested that Xie Zhizhi buy two cardigans, saying, "Zhizhi, buy these. You can wear them when it gets cold these next few days."
"And this color suits you!"
"And this color too!"
Wen Jinzhou held a red cardigan with small white dots in one hand and a pale yellow cardigan in the other.
Xie Zhizhi picked up a black one.
Wen Jinzhou immediately hung it back up, saying, "It doesn't look good, it doesn't suit you."
"These two are nice; little girls should wear clothes like these."
Xie Zhizhi "..."
It's been so many years since anyone called me a little girl.
But looking at myself in the fitting room mirror, oh, I always forget, I'm twenty years old now, in the prime of my youth.
"Okay, let's give it a try!"
Xie Zhizhi tried on one, and Wen Jinzhou's eyes lit up.
"Buy them all!" Wen Jinzhou declared confidently.
The saleswoman couldn't help but say to Xie Zhizhi, "Your brother is so good to you."
Xie Zhizhi touched her face and asked casually, "Do we look that alike?"
The sales clerk smiled and nodded, "Yes, they look like siblings."
Wen Jinzhou went to pick out other clothes and didn't hear what Xie Zhizhi said, nor did she offer any explanation.
But after they finished buying the clothes and came out of the department store, Xie Zhizhi couldn't help but ask Wen Jinzhou, "Commander Wen, is your sister the same age as me?"
Wen Jinzhou shook his head. "Qianqian is three years older than you."
Xie Zhizhi: I thought the story of the real and fake heiress had come to life!
It turned out that I had overthought things. With such a large age difference, there was no possibility of them being switched at birth or being deliberately switched.
That's true. If it were a real or fake heiress, how could the original owner of the body have never been taken back by her family until her death in the original book?
If something can't be discovered in ten or twenty years, will it still not be discovered in forty years?
After buying the clothes, the two ate at a state-run restaurant, this time on Wen Jinzhou's behalf.
Xie Zhizhi borrowed 320 yuan from Wen Jinzhou to buy clothes today.
She bought two sets of autumn clothes, two sweaters, and a pair of leather shoes, so the money just flew away like water.
They're burdened with huge debts!
Too poor, Xie Zhizhi could only make empty promises to Wen Jinzhou while eating: "When I make money, I will definitely treat you to a meal at the State Guest Hotel."
Wen Jinzhou was very happy, "Zhizhi will definitely make a lot of money."
Then he asked, "Zhizhi, would you like to eat at the State Guest Hotel?"
"I'll take you there after I've rested some more."
Xie Zhizhi confidently shook her finger, "Next time you have a break, I'll definitely treat you."
Xie Zhizhi: Sometimes, don't set your goals too high.
