Chapter 208 Alternative Shopping



In the summer, you see steaming steamers on the street, which are filled with steamed buns and dumplings freshly out of the pot.

One person bought a bun and tried it. It tasted very good.

There were a lot of people in front of the boss's stall, and there were also many people buying things next to him.

She calmly ran her finger across a pile of steamers nearby.

Except for the top layer, the buns and steamed buns in the other steamers were quickly moved to their own spaces.

He placed a piece of silver in the empty steamer at the top, then left the stall with a calm expression.

In her space, she stored all the backpacks, sieves and other things that Shen Nian had woven in Liujia Village.

There are plenty of things to put these foods in.

They left without the stall owner noticing.

It wasn't until he had sold out his side and was switching to the steamer next to him that he took down the top layer and was stunned. He thought he had been too busy and had put an empty steamer on top.

It was not until he saw the third layer that he seemed to react. He was so scared that he quickly opened the other steamers to take a look.

As a result, the following is empty.

Sweat instantly flowed down the boss's face.

It's really weird. Where are his buns and steamed buns?

He rubbed his eyes and checked carefully one by one, and finally saw the silver in the steamer on the second layer.

Seeing that the boss was not selling any buns, the customers waiting in front of the stall kept turning over and over the empty steamers, and complained, "Boss, are you still selling these buns?"

The boss finally realized what was happening and quickly stuffed the silver into his chest pocket. He smiled and apologized to the customer, "I'm sorry, sir, all the buns are sold out. I was so busy that I forgot."

When the customer heard that the item was sold out, he turned around and left without saying anything.

Seeing that there was no one around, the boss took out the silver again, looked at it carefully, and bit it with his teeth. It was real.

I felt relieved. This piece of silver was more than enough for those baskets of buns and steamed buns.

It's just strange. He has been guarding the stall the whole time, but he didn't notice anyone tampering with it?

What on earth is going on? Is this a ghost?

When the boss thought of this, he shuddered. It couldn’t be a ghost, right?

He is also a kind ghost who knows to give silver when taking things.

The boss who sells steamed buns and steamed buns here is stuck in a dilemma of self-delusion, and has been wondering who did this.

In the summer, they did the same thing over there and bought a lot of food using the same method.

But after they left, every boss whose products were sold fell into self-doubt, just like the owner of the bun stall.

But everyone tacitly concealed the matter, mainly because they were afraid that others might not believe it if they told others about it.

Even if he believes it, what if the customer gets scared and stops buying from him?

Anyway, they didn't suffer any loss. No matter who took it, they were paid in silver.

So everyone chose to keep their mouths shut.

Xia Tian had no such concerns at all, because no one saw it, so what if someone suspected it?

They don't have any evidence, do they?

After visiting the jewelry store, I bought two sets of jewelry for Ningxiang and Ningxue respectively, and also picked out some small jewelry for Cuiyun, Cuiling, Xiaoyou, Aunt Chen and others in the family before finding a restaurant to have lunch.

I said hello to Mrs. Yi and Mrs. Xu when I left in the morning, and I won’t be going back for lunch.

After finishing the meal, we continued shopping.

When you see a shop, go in and look around. If you need something, buy something. If not, leave.

One afternoon, except for Xia Tian, ​​everyone else was tired of shopping and returned to Yi's house.

Mrs. Xu looked at them carrying so many bags and asked with some amusement, "How much stuff did you buy? Are you tired from shopping?"

"I'm tired. I'm almost dead." Xia Tian nodded and asked someone to put the things back to his room first.

After drinking a glass of water, he continued, "I didn't expect to go back tomorrow. I finally got out for a while, so I bought some small things for everyone."

"Then you should take a rest first, as dinner will be served soon." Mrs. Xu said and left first.

Xia Tian then opened the bag and sorted out the things with Ning Xiang and Ning Xue.

She took out the things she bought for Shen Nian separately and packed them up herself.

Let them divide the rest so that they can give them away when they return.

During dinner that night, Mrs. Yi said embarrassedly, “Mrs. Shen, could you please stay one more day tomorrow?

My old man is on his way back from inspecting the stores and will be home tomorrow morning.

We thought since we have painted a portrait of the old lady, could you please paint one for my old man as well?"

Xia Tian looked at Madam Xu, and Madam Xu smiled, "You decide, I'll listen to you."

Her cousin told her about this in the afternoon, but she didn't know whether Xia Tian would agree, so she didn't agree and asked her cousin to ask in person.

Xia Tian thought about it and decided that it wouldn’t matter if he went back a day later. Besides, he had come so far and since he was already here, painting one more portrait would earn him an extra five thousand taels of silver. Why not do it?

He nodded and said, "Okay, then stay one more day."

When Mrs. Yi heard that she agreed, she thanked her repeatedly with joy. She was afraid that Mrs. Shen would not agree.

I also thought that if they didn't agree, I would pay more money and try to keep the person.

Otherwise, when the old man comes back tomorrow, he will definitely say that they are incompetent.

Lying in bed at night, with the curtains drawn and Ningxiang and Ningxue gone to sleep, she entered the space with peace of mind.

I found a new way to shop today. On a whim, I secretly took some of everything I saw when no one was paying attention.

Of course, everything was paid for with silver.
