Chapter 47: Meeting on a Narrow Road (2/2)



"This girl is the scholar from Hedong Village. He married her at the price of eighty-eight days. She's not that great..."

"She's a goddess in bed, she must be a master in bed, she seduced the scholar and abandoned his wife and children. We country people are no match for the city fairies..."

"That's right, the Zhao family's wife looks simple and capable..."

"Being good at home is not as good as being good in bed..."

People around were talking about it.

Ye Xiyan had never been pointed at and humiliated like this before. She was so angry that her legs went weak and she wished she could faint.

"Don't go too far, Zhao Taohua. You dare to humiliate Xiyan like this. Aren't you afraid that Mu Zhi will kill you?" Old Mrs. Zhou said angrily.

Zhao Taohua died of laughter.

"When did the laws of the Dynasty stipulate that it is not illegal for a scholar to kill someone? If he dares to come, I will break his legs. Let him try it," Zhao Taohua sneered.

Maybe it was because she was in a bad mood, she cursed particularly passionately today.

"Ladies, please stop scolding us. We still have business to do," said the shop assistant pitifully.

Old Lady Zhao opened her voice and said, "I heard that your store has a new pair of gold bracelets. Give me a pair, one for my future daughter-in-law and one for my daughter."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately called the shopkeeper, who, escorted by several guards, brought a brocade box. When they opened it, they found a pair of gold bracelets inside.

"How much?" Old Mrs. Zhao asked generously.

The shopkeeper said, "If you're sincere, one stick is five taels, two sticks are ten taels."

So expensive!

Old Mrs. Zhao, who was eager to show off, was a little scared.

Zhao Taohua smiled and said, "Pack it up. We want it, but our female relatives need to go shopping, so it's inconvenient for us to carry it. Please ask the store to run a trip and send it to the Zhao family in Hexi Village."

The shopkeeper was stunned and instantly surprised. He didn't expect that the gold bracelets he just put on the market would be sold in pairs.

"Yes, yes, but you have to pay first. Here is the receipt. It's my proof. After I send it over, my wife will inspect the goods. After the inspection, if there is no objection, I will pay the balance."

The shopkeeper said with a smile.

Zhao Taohua thought it made sense, so she went forward to check the bracelet in advance to get a better idea of its weight.

"Don't worry, we are Ruyifang, a time-honored brand. We have branches in the county and the state capital..."

After inspecting the goods, Zhao Taohua stepped forward to sign as a receipt and left a deposit of five taels.

After finishing all this, Zhao Taohua went to the cloth area and ordered cotton cloth of several colors and two pieces of red cloth for making new clothes, a total of ten pieces.

He said, "I just ordered some cloth. Please have the store deliver it to the Zhao family in Hexi Village."

“Yes, yes…”

The shopkeeper's eyes widened, thinking that he had met the God of Wealth.

Then Zhao Taohua paid the full price for the fabric in person.

Old Mrs. Zhao also opened her mouth, and after a long while she reacted, she asked, "Ten pieces of cotton cloth, isn't that a bit too much?"

Zhao Taohua explained: "Not many. The new sister-in-law came home and brought a younger sister to Sui'an. The little girl loves beauty, so she always wants to have more clothes than others. Didn't you see that most of the clothes I chose are women's colors..."

Old Mrs. Zhao nodded, agreeing deeply, and said, "That's right, you girls have delicate skin, so you can use cotton cloth. Your brothers have thicker skin and flesh, so you can use the coarse cloth at home."

"Okay, we've finished shopping. We won't bother you anymore. Please help yourself."

When she was about to reach the door, Zhao Taohua looked down at the Zhou family members.
