It was already one quarter past four when Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige walked out of Ling Qingyifang. After putting the clothes into the backpack, Hua Qingcheng took Mu Lige to a nearby cloth shop.
Looking up and seeing the words "Lingqing Cloth Shop" on the plaque, Hua Qingcheng couldn't help but guess: This cloth shop should have the same owner as the clothing shop just now?
Hua Qingcheng had a good impression of the waiter at Ling Qing Cloth Shop, so she took Mu Lige's hand and walked into Ling Qing Cloth Shop.
"Wife, I've already spent eight taels of silver on ready-made clothes. There's no need to ask for more cloth, right?"
Even though the most expensive crescent-shaped white robe in the clothing shop, which cost ten taels of silver, was not as good as any of the clothes he had worn before, considering his family's current situation, spending two taels of silver on a satin robe was indeed a luxury.
"That one is for your leisure time. Now let's go to the cloth shop and buy a few feet of cloth to make two more sets of casual clothes for each of you."
Mu Lige, unable to resist his wife, had no choice but to follow Hua Qingcheng into the cloth shop. The waiter here saw the two people who were dressed in coarse cloth but had excellent temperament, and also warmly entertained them.
After some selection, they spent 1,200 wen to buy eight meters of fine cotton cloth and 640 wen to buy eight meters of coarse cloth, also in white, ink, cyan, and blue, two meters of each color.
At Mu Lige's suggestion, Hua Qingcheng spent 500 wen to buy herself two meters of pink and purple brocade, and spent 450 wen to buy herself three meters of light red fine cotton cloth.
The total cost was 2,790 wen. The waiter kindly suggested buying five more pairs of shoes to make up the three liang, but Mu Lige refused and only spent 50 wen on ten pairs of insoles. In the end, Mu Lige paid the shopkeeper three liang of silver and got 160 wen back.
Just buying clothes, cloth and insoles has cost nearly eleven taels of silver, and Mu Lige is feeling the pain.
Looking at the awkward and conflicted Mu Lige, Hua Qingcheng felt both distressed and amused.
"Come on, little fool! You can earn your money back if you lose it!"
Hua Qingcheng originally wanted to pat Mu Lige's head, but because he was much taller than her, she had to pat his shoulder instead.
Hua Qingcheng took the cloth and insoles packed by the waiter, stuffed them into the backpack, threw them on the sofa in the villa, then closed the lid of the backpack and pulled Mu Lige out of Lingqing Cloth Shop and walked towards the market.
At three quarters past four, the two finally arrived at the market in Baishui Town.
Si Chengfeng, who had just arrived at the market, was also dumbfounded by the throng of people. How could he find his way there? However, Si Chengfeng quickly remembered that the market was a closed and managed place by the government. In the end, he decided to wait and see, and simply waited at the entrance of the market and try his luck.
The sun was already blazing, and Si Chengfeng, sweating profusely, snapped open his rosewood folding fan and waved it. He waited for a long time but still didn't see the couple Xiao Liuzi had described as so elegant and perfect.
Just when his patience ran out and he was about to leave, he unexpectedly bumped into someone head-on.
"Sorry! Are you okay?"
Hua Qingcheng squatted down, bent over to pick up the folding fan that the other person had dropped on the ground, and then looked at the person she had knocked down.
Just now, she suddenly remembered that she hadn't fed the tiger cub yet today. She was thinking of finding an opportunity to go into the villa in the space to feed it, but she was distracted and bumped into someone. Moreover, she found that since coming here, her strength seemed to be much greater than before.
"No problem!"
Si Chengfeng looked up and saw a beautiful woman. His good upbringing would not allow him to blackmail others. Besides, he was indeed distracted while walking just now, so he couldn't blame the other person entirely.
Just as Hua Qingcheng was about to help him up, Mu Lige on the side had already stepped forward and helped Si Chengfeng up from the ground.
"I'm so sorry! This is your fan!"
Hua Qingcheng held the folding fan in both hands and presented it to Si Chengfeng. Si Chengfeng nodded at her and took it with both hands. After putting the folding fan at his waist, Si Chengfeng planned to walk back to Lingqing Cloth Shop.
"Wife, are you okay?"
Mu Lige looked at Hua Qingcheng worriedly. The force of the collision just now seemed to be quite strong.
"I'm fine, Li Ge. I'll go into the market soon. I'm going to the toilet first. Do you want to wait for me or go shopping on your own?"
Hua Qingcheng thought for a long time and finally came up with this reason. She waited until she went to the toilet to send Mu Lige away for a while.
"I'm with my wife. I'll wait for you outside. The toilet is at the innermost part of the market. I'll take my wife there now."
Si Chengfeng took two steps but stopped short when he heard the word "Li Ge." Li Ge? Mu Li Ge? So, the woman he was with was Hua Qingcheng?
Si Chengfeng turned around suddenly and looked at the two people who were walking into the market. Is this Hua Qingcheng the same Hua Qingcheng? Si Chengfeng then turned back and followed the two people into the market.
After Hua Qingcheng entered the toilet, she quickly went into the kitchen of the villa in the space, heated up a box of milk and brought it to the living room. After feeding the little tiger cub, she returned to the toilet in the market.
She didn't know if it was her imagination, but she found that the bread, milk and other things she had taken out of the refrigerator had reappeared, and the entire refrigerator was still full as it was at the beginning. Could it be that after the things in the refrigerator were used up, they would automatically return to their original state after a day?
But now is not the time to study this. After all, Mu Lige is still waiting for him outside. If he doesn't come out for a long time, he will be anxious soon.
"Wife, are you okay?"
Seeing his wife finally coming out after a quarter of an hour, Mu Lige immediately felt relieved.
