Chapter 0608 It’s almost Chinese New Year, let’s go shopping! ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ(1/3)
The next day, in the morning. Novel.
Although last night, the group of gods, Buddhas, demons and monsters dispersed and fell asleep after two thunders, worried that after dawn, even a little Annie would get up before Si Shi, except for a fat pig.
Because, her aunt Li said that she would take her to the market this morning?
Of course, there is also: today she finally put on a well-fitting dress!
The reason why little Annie waited so long before seeing her new clothes was actually impossible, because, if a woman in the Song Dynasty did not have a female worker, she would almost never get married! So, when marrying a wife is equivalent to getting a master of hand-made tailoring, under the influence of this self-sufficient small peasant economy, commercial activities are not developed, so that there are very few ready-made clothes on the streets, and even less children's clothes. More shops just sell fabrics directly so that each household can buy them back and make them homemade?
"Uh-huh……"
(`)
In the gate of Li's house, Little Annie was still hesitantly looking at her novel outfit, looking a little hesitant, as if she didn't know whether she should wear such a "strange costume" and follow Aunt Li to go out to show off her?
Anyway, this is the first time she has worn this kind of clothing that makes her feel very distorted and uncomfortable.
"Aunt Li... can't we change into another outfit?"
(w)
"Look, this outfit is not smooth and comfortable, but look here, and here... the sleeves are too long and wide, and the skirt is a little too long, and they are all dragged to the floor! Also, the soles of the small shoes you embroidered are also hard, and these flat shoes are not easy to wear at all, and they are not in line with human mechanics at all. If you wear them for a long time, the soles of the feet will hurt..."
At this time, Anne was wearing a white and pink floral waist-length skirt.
Rusun is a type of Hanfu. The short clothes worn on the upper body and the skirt tied on the lower body are collectively called Rusun. It is a typical "top and bottom skirt" garment. The top is called "ru". It is shorter in length and is generally not longer than the knees, and the lower body is called "sun"!
The ru skirt is divided into a waist-length ru skirt, a high-waist ru skirt, and a chest-length ru skirt according to the height of the skirt. The ru skirt is divided into a cross-collar ru skirt and a straight-neck ru skirt according to the difference between the inside and the ru skirt is divided into a single ru and a duplex ru skirt according to the difference between the inside and the ru skirt is close to the ru skirt! The single ru skirt is close to the ru skirt, which is generally worn in summer, while the ru skirt is close to the ru skirt, which is suitable for wearing in winter.
"I don't like it very much..."
┐(‘~`;)┌
Of course, the set of Annie was a duplex jacket. Although the one she wore on the outermost body was a short jacket, her cuffs were straightened to the tip of her little fingers, and they were wide and large... and the hem was half of her thighs. A bunch of silk belts were tied to the side of her waist, and a slip knot was tied to the side of her waist so that it could fall down naturally. As for the lower body, it was a bright red waist-length skirt, which was also very long, so I couldn't see the shoes anyway.
Although……
This dress made by Aunt Li won unanimous praise from everyone in the family!
However, Annie still felt that her outfit was too slow and had not been enchanted. Once she set fire to fight, she would definitely burn this kind of smooth fabric called silk! And the skirt was really too long, which affected her activity. Once she ran quickly, she might even step on her skirt and tripped to the ground with a "bang"?
Anyway, Annie doesn't like this kind of clothing that affects her fight and her fast running. She still likes to wear her little Red Riding Hood skirt or the battle armor of ghost agents?
"But Anne!"
"I think it's very good now, very awesome! Your friends all say it's very beautiful. No matter how far you look, you're just like a little fairy. Why don't you like it?"
Looking at the little girl with soft and beautiful blonde hair, green eyes and white skin in front of me wearing a skirt sewn with her own stitch, Xu Jiaorong felt very beautiful. She was simply a little beauty who was fascinated by the death. The kind of storytellers' descriptions such as falling fish, falling geese, and shy flowers, may be just like this?
Of course, the premise is that the people of the Song Dynasty can accept this kind of blond and blue-eyed girl from the Fan country, otherwise those ordinary people who can't stand it will definitely not be able to appreciate it.
But no matter what, this is the first set of robe skirts that Xu Jiaorong completed, and there are many sets that she needs to slowly think about and sew!
Originally, she was very confident...
But who would have thought that this little guy Annie didn't appreciate it at all?
If it were another child, she would have been wearing it and showing off to other friends, right? Even Xu Jiaorong herself, if she had such a dress made of top-notch silk material when she was a child, she might have woken up in her dreams.
So, now seeing this little girl reacting like this, Xu Jiaorong felt helpless. She didn't know what she should do to satisfy the other party and herself?
“The cuffs are too wide….”
"And you see: This skirt is too inconvenient. I took a step and took a small step and walked slowly and quickly, but I would definitely step on the skirt if I took a big step or ran!"
Anyway, Annie doesn't like wearing this outfit that affects combat at all! Maybe, if she really fights with some people, she may just burn it up and then transform into a dress she likes in an instant?
"well……"
"I have forgotten that you are a wild girl... Well, in two days I will sew a skirt for you that is not that long and the cuffs are not that wide?"
Xu Jiaorong compromised...
After all, the little guy has to sew one or two pieces of money for the other party to satisfy the other party. Of course, the rest should be done according to her original ideas. You can't do it casually, so as not to let outsiders see jokes.
At most, it is to compromise with two sets, and the other ones are determined not to compromise. In her opinion, children should not make so many requests, otherwise they will not be able to raise them in the future if they are spoiled!
"Okay! Then I'll go back and replace it first!!"
*(*)*
Little Annie cheered, then lifted up the corner of her skirt, planned to turn her head and run back to her room, and then change the floor-drag skirt that made her feel very twisted.
"no!"
However, a somewhat rough hand grabbed Anne's little arm steadily, with a doting and an undeniable smile in her eyes, ruthlessly shattering her request.
"It's getting late now. Let's wear it like this today. When you change it, the market will be almost over!"
Xu Jiaorong had been busy for a long time before he could get out of this trick. He was about to take the other party out to show off to the women in his neighbors. How could he let this little guy run back to change to that kind of skirt?
Now is the time when she shows her achievements, she has to carry the other person out for a walk around whatever she says.
"I changed my clothes very quickly, and I changed it back in a moment!"
(o)
Anne said that she had spells, and just ran back to the room, took off the troublesome body, and then used the spell to exchange it for one second, which would definitely not last long.
"no!"
"We have to prepare New Year's goods in advance, but we don't have time to wait for you. Let's leave Annie! The market will not last too long. Later, when it's late noon, people will be almost dispersed."
After saying that, Xu Jiaorong pulled the other party out of the door without any doubt.
The door was not locked, but she was just a cover-up and was not closed, and she was not afraid of thieves entering! After all, there were eight men, women, big and small inside. Which thief would dare to break in casually?
"New Year's goods? What is New Year's goods?!"??(*ロ)ノ
When the other party was holding hands, there was no way. Little Annie had to take such a twisted step, bit the bullet, and follow the other party step by step.
Annie expressed her understanding of the word "英" and the word "冲" is also very simple, but when the two words are combined, the word is too rare and she has never heard of it.
"It is the things and goods that need to be used for the New Year last year, and they are built into 'New Year's goods'!"
"Everything that you eat, wear, wear, use, or offer, such as gifts from Wang Yuanwai, dried fruits and vegetables, fresh meat, raw squeezes, various cooked foods, etc., must be bought in advance and prepared! Otherwise, it will be difficult to buy in recent days, and the price will at least double the price!"
In the Song Dynasty, the materials are not as rich as those in later generations, and it takes a long time for many things to be transported to the city, so Xu Jiaorong only knew that if they didn’t prepare them early, they would have to buy them and sell them when they wanted to. After all, everyone was going to celebrate the New Year, and she didn’t want to ask others to pick up the remaining things!
Besides, if it is delayed until the end of the year, even if she, Xu Jiaorong, wants to buy it, she will not be able to buy it!
So she must prepare at least ten days and half a month in advance! If it were those in remote villages and wealthy families, they might have to travel between towns more than one month in advance to prepare for the New Year purchase?
"It sounds like the kind I used to be called 'Christmas'?"
(_)
While walking forward and listening curiously for a while, Anne quickly figured it out.
“What is Christmas?”
Now, it was Xu Jiaorong's turn to be a little curious and puzzled.
“Um…”
"It's just... it's just a group of people who celebrate their birthdays for a god I don't know, gathered together to celebrate their ability to stop working and eat and drink?"
Σ( ̄д ̄;)!!
Anyway, in Little Annie's impression, that Christmas should be like that!
Especially in the world of mass effect, those untrustworthy people from Normandy 2 spacecraft were probably forgotten what the church looked like, but they still remember the day of holidays and rest?
"Celebrating the birthday of a god I don't know? Isn't believers also having holidays? Is there such a strange thing in the Western world?"
Xu Jiaorong was a little confused.
Because in their Song Dynasty, only those sincere believers would remember the birth of the immortal gods they worshiped, and then burn incense and paper on specific days or celebrate with their families. For example, Xu Jiaorong herself, whenever she remembers the birth of the immortal gods, the Jade Emperor, the Holy Mother, Bodhisattva, Prince Guan, Zhao Tianjun and other immortal gods, would she give a stick of incense as long as she remembers it?
And it is simply impossible to celebrate the birthday of the gods that you don’t know or believe in!
"Of course there are, I've seen that strange guy anyway!"
(*^^*)
"Forget it, let's not talk about those strange guys! Let's go, little Annie, let's buy our New Year's goods! If you go late, people will pick all the good things in the market today!"
Xu Jiaorong didn't have that much curiosity, nor did she want to worry about the beliefs of the Western barbarians. She just wanted to hurry to the market and take down all the things she saw!
Moreover, today is just the first day! In her expectation, the procurement of New Year's goods will last at least several days to complete! Because, in today's market, everything that satisfies her will not appear, and she will have to work hard for a few days to achieve her goals.
"oh!"
"But, what exactly do we want to buy for our New Year's goods? You just said so much!"
∑(△)?!
Just like the other party just said a lot of food, clothes, wear, use, play, offer, etc.... In Xiao Annie's opinion, since she needs to buy so much, she should pull out the black donkey of Fairy Zixia to carry things!
That lazy thing, she doesn't work all day long, if she continues like that, if she gets fat one day, she will have to eat donkey meat and cook it!!
(`)
"Let me think about it..."
"Maybe our family needs... the wax medicine for soaking Tusu wine, buy some new cloth for everyone to make brocade clothes, and maybe buy one of the new calendars? Door gods of all sizes, peach talismans, Zhong Kui portraits, spring posts, golden colors, wisp flowers, banners, year-end plate boxes, wine eaves, sheep cavity, fruits, five-color paper money, basin, Pepsi, rubber teeth, etc."
