BXBX NOVEL Chapter 353: 353 Thinking of giving it to Fourth Brother
“Alright, thank you in advance.” Su Qingyue didn’t take out any silver taels but looked at the clothes hanging on the wall of the cloth shop. “Look at the clothes I’m wearing; they’re so worn out and almost all of it is patched. Last time I bought cloth from your shop, because third brother was resting, the progress of cutting the cloth and making clothes was slow, and the clothes weren’t finished. I want to buy a set of ready-made clothes and two pairs of embroidered shoes.”
Lady Li was quite happy since her business hadn’t opened yet today. “Why don’t you take a look and see if there’s anything you like?”
“I can’t afford the expensive ones. You mentioned last time that the 1-tael-a-set clothes weren’t too bad and even had embroidery. Which styles can I choose from now?”
Lady Li enthusiastically showed her, “There are a total of four sets of clothes with embroidery priced at slightly more than 1 tael. You look like you could wear them now. The last time you came, you were so skinny that the wind could blow you away, but now you’ve put on some weight, although you’re still quite thin.”
Su Qingyue chose a lake green outfit that looked neither flashy nor extravagant. After trying it on, it was a bit loose, perfect for her to put on a little more weight. Otherwise, she would still be too thin.
She also bought a pair of lake green embroidered shoes and a pair of light yellow embroidered shoes. The lake green pair would match this new outfit, and the yellow pair could be paired with the clothes third brother was making for her.
“Do you have bedsheets, quilt covers, and pillowcases?” she asked. The bed in the master bedroom at home was very wide and long, with three paddings, but there were only two beddings to cover it. The secondary bedroom had both padding and covers, but no spare ones. Moreover, not to mention the lack of one blanket, the existing blankets, padding, bedsheets, and quilt covers were so worn out that the colors had faded, and the cotton was hard and uncomfortable to sleep on. If she had the money, she would definitely buy new ones.
“Yes, we do.” Lady Li replied, “Do you want to buy the cloth and make it yourself, or buy ready-made ones?”
“Let’s buy ready-made ones. At home, only my third brother knows needlework. He is recuperating, and the clothes he helped me make last time are not finished yet. It would be too hard for him to sew bedsheets and quilt covers.”
“You really care about your husband, huh.” Lady Li teased, “Huh? You don’t know how to do embroidery work?”
She stretched out her hand, “Look at the blisters on my hands from working these days.” She wouldn’t admit if she did. The body’s original owner knew how to do it, but she couldn’t claim that she could, so she just laughed it off.
“Sigh, it’s really pitiful…” Lady Li saw the blisters and cocoons on her hand, “How about this, I’ll give you a discount.”
Su Qingyue looked at the several quilt covers stacked on the table in the corner and, after asking the price, chose one. “I’ll take this kind of cloth.” It wasn’t the best, but it certainly wasn’t the worst. A better quilt would be more comfortable to sleep on.
“You have good taste. This type of fabric is comfortable and affordable.”
“I want five sets of bedsheets and quilt covers, and four pillowcases.”
“So many?” Lady Li originally thought she would just buy one set.
Su Qingyue was thinking that the master bedroom would need three sets, plus one set for the secondary bedroom, making it four sets. She was sleeping in the secondary bedroom, which was fourth brother’s room. After second brother and third brother recovered, she couldn’t keep sleeping in the secondary bedroom.
It was evident that fourth brother preferred having a separate room.
If she were to return to the master bedroom to sleep, not only would she not want to share a room with Xiao Yuchuan but it would also be inconvenient with second brother there.
Therefore, she planned to clean up the storage room later and make it into a bedroom. Then she would need another set of bedding.
Lady Li was happy. Her shop didn’t have much business today, and she thought Su Qingyue came to borrow money,
