Chapter 27 His Wife Is Unique
Chi Xi and Xi Dazhuang walked out of Zuixiang Tower.
Xi Dazhuang pursed his lips and hesitated to speak. He had many things to explain to Chi Xi, but he didn't know how to talk about them. He opened his mouth in confusion, but couldn't say a word.
Chi Xi saw his confusion, reached out and grabbed his big hand and squeezed it comfortingly, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Brother Da Zhuang, there is a long time between us. If you don't know what to say to me now, don't force it." Myself. I believe you will tell me when the time comes."
While Xi Dazhuang breathed a sigh of relief, he was very moved, but felt guilty because of this move. He said with a complicated expression: "Daughter-in-law, what happened today is a long story, and I will tell you all about it in the future. illustrate."
Shen Ruyu has already found him and will not let him go easily.
They still have to deal with each other, and the outcome is uncertain. The less Chi Xi knows, the better for her.
"I know."
Chi Xi said with a crooked smile: "Should we go see the medicinal materials now? It has been delayed for a long time, and we have to rush home before dark!"
Xi Dazhuang knew that Chi Xi was taking the initiative to change the topic.
It's so considerate that it makes your heart ache.
"Oh, okay, between us husband and wife, do you still want to see me outside like this?"
Chi Xi took Xi Dazhuang's hand and walked forward. As he walked, he said: "There seems to be a medical clinic ahead. Let's go and ask about the situation first. It would be great if they can provide medicine. If not, we have to go there again. Ask somewhere else!"
Xi Dazhuang followed Chi Xi to several medicinal shops.
I haven't found any that can provide medicinal seeds.
It's not an option to continue like this.
Xi Dazhuang suggested: "The medical clinics and drug stores in the city have exclusive supply channels. All the medicinal materials they collect are finished products, and none can be used as medicinal seeds. I am afraid this method will not work, and we can only think of other options. There’s a solution.”
There are many precious medicinal materials in the space of Chixi.
But for a moment, she didn't know how to explain this matter to Xi Dazhuang.
"Daughter-in-law, it's not yet time to plant medicinal materials. We still have time to prepare. I just need to take Zhang Tianxiong and the others up the mountain to dig."
Wild herbs are more effective.
If you can dig it out and make medicinal seeds.
It’s also a good idea.
It's just that some medicinal materials are very rare. Even if people go to the mountains to look for them, they may not be able to find them. That's why Chi Xi wants to try his luck in the county and take out the medicinal seeds in the space without anyone noticing.
But now we have to change our strategy.
After Chi Xi pondered for a moment, he nodded and said, "That's the only way."
"Okay, don't frown. My husband will take you to buy rice."
Xi Dazhuang took Chi Xi to the rice and grain store and said with a smile: "My mother told me today that there was some fabric left over from making clothes some time ago. She asked me to buy some cotton back today so that she could make a small piece for our child. A cotton-padded jacket, just in case you don’t find anything when the child is born.”
When she mentioned the child, Chi Xi blushed slightly and couldn't help but laugh: "The child is not here yet! It's too early to make clothes now. When I go back, I will talk to my mother and ask her to make myself a pair of cotton trousers first so that I can wear them warmly in winter." .”
In her previous life, her child was supposed to be conceived in April next year.
It’s still autumn, and it’s still early!
Xi Dazhong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Then buy more and make you a pair of cotton trousers. If the fabric is not enough, just buy another one. I can't let you and your mother suffer; neither can our future children." If you feel wronged, make two sets of clothes and prepare them first, so as not to be in a hurry in the future."
He really wants children.
If possible, he would like to have more children. The more people there are, the more lively the place will be.
Although her mother didn't say much, Xi Dazhuang knew clearly that his mother couldn't let go of the past and was very depressed. She also missed his father and his brothers very much.
If...if I could have a baby soon, maybe it would make his mother happier, and she would no longer have to force herself to smile and be depressed every day.
Chi Xi knew that Xi Dazhuang desperately wanted a child, so he spent a lot of time and night trying to get a child.
She also wanted to get pregnant, but she still wanted her original child.
Now that I am pregnant, I am no longer the same person as in my previous life.
Although Chi Xi said no, Xi Dazhuang was unambiguous about his wife and mother-in-law. He bought ten kilograms of cotton and two pieces of fabric soon after. After buying, he insisted on dragging Chi Xi to the jewelry store to buy some.
jewelry.
"Brother Da Zhuang, now is the time for us to spend money. We can save some unnecessary expenses."
When Chi Xi saw Xi Dazhuang picking up the most exquisite hairpin in the shop, he couldn't help but persuade him: "If you want to give it to me, let's choose a more practical one. This one is too expensive."
"My wife naturally wants the best."
Xi Dazhuang said matter-of-factly: "We have been married for more than three years, and my husband has not given you any decent jewelry yet. This time I finally found something decent, how could I miss it?"
Although Chi Xi feels sorry for Yinzi.
But this hairpin is really pretty.
The delicate plum blossoms are exquisite and lifelike, as if they will sway with the wind at any time. The fine tassels hang down, and they will make a slight sound when swaying gently, which is really nice to hear.
"This gentleman is really discerning. This hairpin is the treasure of our store. It was made by Tao Changnian, the most powerful silversmith in our county. It is not available in other stores, and we will not sell it again.
The second one is truly unique!”
The shopkeeper came forward and said with a smile: "This lady is handsome, which is most suitable for this hairpin. The young master is willing to give it to me, but the lady can't feel bad about the money. There are not many things that a person can grasp in this life.
You are so lucky to meet such a considerate husband, you must have accumulated blessings, but you can't let down your husband's heart!"
"Shopkeeper, how much is this hairpin?"
Xi Dazhuang felt that what the shopkeeper said was very reasonable, and his eyes showed pleasure.
His wife is unique, so the things his wife uses must also be unique.
"Hey, I see that this young master has a good face, so he only charges thirty taels of silver."
The shopkeeper said with a cheerful smile: "If the young master had come yesterday, our price would still have been thirty-five!"
"Thirty taels is too expensive."
Chi Xi frowned and said, "Although this hairpin is beautiful, it's not worth the price."
"Madam, we not only have material costs, but also labor costs. Master Tao's skills are superb, and the costs are even higher. We operate on a small scale, but we always have to make some money to support our family."
Just halfway through the shopkeeper's long speech, Chi Xi said expressionlessly: "Twelve taels of silver, if you sell it, we will take it away. If you don't sell it, just forget it!"
"Madam, how can you say that?"
The shopkeeper seemed frightened and said in horror: "Our hairpin was made with at least twelve taels of silver. Now you only give us twelve taels. This must be impossible!"
"Then forget it."
Although this hairpin looks good, the material it uses is only eight taels of silver at most. Excluding the craftsman's fee, Chi Xi pays twelve taels. The shopkeeper also makes a profit, but not much.
Chi Xi pulled Xi Dazhuang and turned around to leave.
The shopkeeper suddenly said: "Madam, if you give me more, let's each take a step back. I think your husband-in-law is a capable man and considerate of his daughter-in-law. He must be a man of love and justice, so let's make friends."
You take the eight taels of silver!"
"Twelve taels is twelve taels, not even one more copper coin."
Chi Xi turned his head and smiled at the shopkeeper, his eyes shining as he said: "If you are willing to sell, we will also make friends with you."
The twelve taels were calculated by Chi Xi.
This is the critical point that makes the shopkeeper wonder whether to sell it or not.
Sell, not much profit.
If you don't sell it, there won't be many people in the county who are willing to spend so much money to buy a hairpin.
The shopkeeper pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, and said loudly: "Okay! If I sell it to you, I will treat it as a friend."
“The shopkeeper is so happy!”
Chi Xi smiled and nodded, pulling Xi Dazhuang back again.
While packing the hairpin in a wooden box, the shopkeeper babbled: "I sold it to you because I saw that this little brother has a good eye for me. If you need it in the future, you have to come and take care of my business."
"
"good."
Chi Xi deserves to be refreshed.
The couple walked out of the shop with their hairpins in hand. Xi Dazhuang took the wooden box from Chi Xi's hand and said with a smile: "I didn't expect my wife to be so good at bargaining. Thirty taels of silver can be reduced to twelve taels. This
The hairpin is not light, the workmanship is good, and the style is good. My husband thought it would cost thirty taels!"
He doesn't understand women's things.
Of course I can't estimate the price.
If he was the only one here today, even if he bargained, the minimum would be twenty taels.
Chi Xi blinked and said with a sly expression: "No matter where you buy something, especially clothing, shoes, jewelry, etc., the counteroffer cannot be higher than half of the shopkeeper's price, otherwise you will definitely suffer a loss."
Xi Dazhuang looked like he had learned something, nodded seriously and said, "I will remember it for my husband."
"Okay, it's getting late, we should go back."
"Okay, I'll go back then."
