Chapter 262: ——New clothes
Lin Xuewen is dead!
Thinking of this, Lin Boshan felt afraid for a while.
If it was yesterday, he had not thought of the job of storytelling, and had not made an equal contract in this life's persistence. He is now afraid that, like Lin Xuewen, he has lost the integrity of a scholar and has completely become such a mediocre and humble person.
It can be seen that Lin Xuewen cares about this job very much, and Lin Boshan did not settle down, saying: "I want to buy three clothes, one is for a scholar like me, the other is for my mother, and the other is for my nine-year-old brother. Clothes. Three sets for each one."
When the shopkeeper heard, this is a big deal. Although the clothes of the other party are worn out, the temperament on the body is elegant and transcendent, and they are very temperament. At first glance, they are the seeds of reading. If such a person has real talents and learns, it is easy to get money.
Therefore, although he opened a clothing store, he did not have the habit of respecting clothes first and then respecting people. On the contrary, he has been doing business for many years and has gained more knowledge. He has developed a pair of fiery eyes. At first glance, he knows that this person is rich and confident, so he is very respectful to Lin Boshan.
After talking with the shopkeeper of the garment shop, I spent six taels of silver without blinking, bought nine sets of clothes, and left the garment shop with satisfaction.
The shopkeeper's enthusiasm personally sent it out: "Mr. Lin comes back when he needs it, our shop is definitely the most affordable ready-to-wear shop in Tang County."
"sure."
"Just now, Xiaoer Dian has offended you, do you want to..."
Lin Boshan sighed: "Forget it, he and I are fellow villagers. There was a little conflict in the past, and it has passed long ago. His life is not easy. If treasurer Cheng is interested, take care of him. It is not easy for him."
Shopkeeper Cheng gave Lin Boshan a thumbs up and said, "Mr. Lin is really a gentleman."
Lin Boshan shook his head. Do people in this world always use the word "gentleman" to praise people?
This is the case with the shopkeepers of Tang Yin and Yuelai Restaurant, and the same is true for the shopkeeper Cheng of the ready-to-wear shop.
After Lin Boshan left, Lin Xuewen cautiously stepped forward and said: "The shopkeeper, I, he is my hometown. Three days ago, he was a mountain man in a mountain village. I thought he didn't have the money to come here to find a job or come here to make a fool of yourself. ,I……"
Shopkeeper Cheng shook his head in disappointment with him and said: "You have read a few books, so I value you very much. I didn't expect you to be so ignorant. It is not easy for a truly talented scholar to get money. Some people think of ways to help each other without disrupting the reading popularity festival. They have never lacked money for reading seeds! You! The structure is too small. Do you know what Mr. Lin said before he left? Saying that you are his fellow villager, saying that you are not easy, let me take care of you more, but what about you? How do you treat Mr. Lin? You are still young and have few places to go. You will go out in the future and have experienced more Now, you will know what kind of close relationship between fellow villagers and people of the same family. Mr. Lin has already spoken. I won't bother you because of this. Don't worry."
After the treasurer Cheng finished speaking, he left, leaving time and space for Lin Xuewen, so that Lin Xuewen could think about it.
The treasurer Cheng is still very optimistic about Lin Xuewen. He is young, literate, and responsible. He even wanted to train as a son-in-law. However, looking at what he looks like today, he has to reconsider, and he has to investigate and test more. You can't give your baby daughter to someone so easily.
Lin Boshan returned to Huaiyin and returned home in awe of the surrounding eyes.
"Don Sting seems to be a messenger, and his prestige in the gang is very high, so I warned that I have become a existence in Huaiyin that no one dares to provoke. This is a favor! Plus Yuelai The kindness of the storytelling platform provided by the restaurant is a bit too much! However, the people in the world and I are not in the same way. We need to be vigilant. The kindness is a kindness, and the principle is the principle. Don't let their way. "
Thinking of this, Lin Boshan walked into the house. Lin Zhou was getting food in the yard, and when he saw Lin Boshan asked with concern: "Boshan is back, how is today?"
Seeing her mother looking better and better, she said to her heart: These five taels of silver did not come in vain, and this good medicine did not come in vain. After only two days, her mother's illness was cured. Coupled with the good food and sleep in the past two days, my mother's illness recovered very quickly.
"Mother, your illness has just recovered, why are you busy? How about Ji Shan?"
Lin Jishan shouted from the kitchen: "Brother, I'm not lazy, I'm burning the fire."
When Lin Zhou saw Lin Boshan holding a baggage in his hand, he frowned and asked, "Boshan, what did you buy again?"
Lin Boshan smiled and said, "Today there is a reward of four or three ounces of silver. I bought some clothes for you and your brother."
As soon as Lin Jishan heard of his new clothes, he immediately ran out and said excitedly: "I have new clothes to wear?"
Lin Boshan touched his younger brother Ji Shan's hair and said with a smile: "Yes, there are new clothes on, are you happy?"
Lin Jishan grinned and said, "Happy, happy."
Lin Zhou reprimanded while washing his hands: "Aren't you watching the fire? What kind of mess is added here! If you add more mess, you will return your new clothes."
Faced with Yan's mother's reprimand, Lin Jishan ran back to the kitchen immediately in fright, saying: "Mother, I am very obedient. If people don't mess up, don't return my new clothes. I have never worn new clothes since I was a child? "
Lin Boshan felt uncomfortable listening to Ji Shan's words. The Lin family was originally not wealthy. After the seeds of reading like Lin Boshan, although there was relief from the village clan and the care of the teacher, they could only have a green shirt without patches.
But Lin Jishan has been wearing the rest of the clothes he and the other two older brothers wear. The patch was applied over and over again, and I never wore new clothes.
This is something that we dare not even think of in a modern society with abundant materials, and in the wealthy and powerful China.
In ancient times, it was a common social phenomenon. In rural areas, materials are scarce and fabrics are exquisite. Many places use fabrics as hard currency instead of coins for trading.
Ordinary people are reluctant to wear the cloth woven by themselves. Instead, they use it to trade in exchange for food to maintain their livelihoods and support their families.
Lin Zhou washed his hands, and followed the burden in Lin Boshan's hands, while exhorting: "Forty-three taels of silver is indeed a lot, but you can't spend money like this! In case no one will give you a reward one day. What do you want to do in the imperial examination? The money should be spent on the blade, buy more books, buy more pens, inks, papers and inkstones, buy clothes for us. Is it one person and three people?"
