271 The Real World 9
"How much?"
The shopkeeper was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect her to be serious, "Two taels of silver." Although this suit is made of satin, the style is old. It has been here for many years, and no one buys it.
Clothes that can afford silk and satin are all children of large families. Children like this cannot be bought in ready-made clothing stores. They are made by special people at home.
The shopkeeper did not dare to set the price too high, for fear of scaring her.
Bei Yutang took two taels of silver from her purse and put it on the counter. The shopkeeper was really stunned. She didn't expect that she would actually have the money to buy it.
The smile on the shopkeeper's face immediately became enthusiastic, "This little boy, let's go in and try."
The shopkeeper of the boy Mo also said the same, looking at his mother's eyes again, holding this expensive dress into the inner room. After a while, the curtain was lifted, and there was a small beanie dragging a long coat. It felt like he was stealing an adult's clothes. Coupled with his pink face that was wrinkled like a small bun, he was full of joy.
Bei Yutang couldn't help but burst out laughing, the boy Mo blushed when he saw his mother smiling.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper felt that the clothes would probably not be sold again. So lenient, this woman will definitely not buy it.
Bei Yutang looked up and down at the boy Mo's body. The clothes were a little long and wide, but if they were changed a little, they could be worn. The color of this suit matches the skin tone of the kid.
Bei Yutang put another piece of cotton clothes on Kid Mo's body, "Put this on and show my mother."
The kid Mo went in obediently, and when he came out again, this time, Bei Yutang and the shopkeeper were amazed. They changed into a fitted suit and matched the handsome face of the kid Mo, as if they were rich. The little boy in the family.
"Oh, this little boy looks good in this suit. It's no different from being made to measure." The shopkeeper sighed in admiration from the bottom of his heart.
Bei Yutang agreed with what he said, and then tried on a few more outfits for him. When kid Mo was changing clothes, Bei Yutang also chose four sets of clothes for himself.
The color and style of the clothes are simple, too gorgeous clothes, which are really not worthy of her huge body and pockmarked face.
The mother and son each bought four sets of cotton clothes, and the boy Mo added a satin one. This trip cost five taels of silver.
Boy Mo looked a little distressed on the side. When paying the money, he couldn't help but want his mother to buy less. In fact, he only needed one set of clothes.
The two walked out of the clothing store wearing new clothes, and then went to the bookstore. Bei Yutang chose the four treasures of the study, rice paper, and some basic enlightenment books and copybooks.
Spending twenty taels of silver in the bookstore, they all say that reading is to burn silver, which is not false at all. The things that literati use are not cheap.
"Mother, why do you want to buy these things?" This
Some things cannot be eaten, and it is also a waste to buy them back.
Twenty taels of silver, that's a lot of money.
"Zimo, my mother said that I want you to go to the school. Now my mother will give you the basics first. After the spring of next year, when you arrive at the school, let the master teach you."
The boy's footsteps stopped, and he looked at her in shock.
"Mother, you, you let me study?"
It takes a lot of money to study. In the village, only Wang Xiaobao from the Lizheng family and Liu Qing from the Liu family study in the school. I heard adults say that they are all promising people in the future, who can become high officials, and there are no children in the village who do not envy them.
