Chapter 44 Buying Jewelry

After hearing what Melo Mei said, Mei Laoer had no choice but to continue sitting.

I hope the food is not too expensive.

When the village chief heard what Melo Mei said, he felt relieved, smiled heartily, and said: "This is my job, little girl, you are too polite."

"Grandpa, village chief, don't shirk it. This meal is what we deserve."

Melome clapped her hands and said to the outside: "Brother Defu, can we serve the food?"

After Melome finished speaking, the two waiters came in with trays, and in just a moment, more than ten dishes were served.

"I didn't order so many dishes, Brother Defu, did you make a mistake?"

Merome looked at the large table of dishes and felt surprised.

"No, no, the shopkeeper asked us to serve it. He said it was to thank Miss Mei."

Defu put down the last dish and took the tray, "Miss Mei, please take your time, I won't disturb you anymore."

Go out and close the door.

"Three...three...sanya, so many dishes, we, we..."

How much money does this cost?

Mei Laoer looked at the dishes on the big table and almost cried.

The village chief took a look and felt that there was a lot of food. He knew that Mei Laoer's family didn't have much money.

"I brought some steamed buns with me when I went out. How about we return these dishes and use the steamed buns to dip into the soup?"

As he spoke, he took out two steamed buns from his arms and said, "I heard that the food here is very expensive. It is eaten by dignitaries. We ordinary people cannot afford it."

Looking at the sincere village chief, Melome was both amused and sad at the same time, so she could only say: "Grandpa, village chief, please put away the wowotou. I just did a business with the shopkeeper here and made some money. I can eat with him."

There is still money.”

He got chopsticks for the two of them, scooped out rice from the basin and handed it to them, saying: Dad, why did you go so long?"

"The yamen servant said that Master was busy and asked us to wait for a while."

Wait more than two hours?

"Little girl, all officials are like this, you just get used to it, you get used to it."

The village chief picked up a chopstick and tasted the dish: "It's delicious."

Then he said: "Second brother, we can't finish all the dishes. Why don't you pack them back and give them to your wife and others to try?"

Mei Laoer also had this intention. Before Mei Luomei could react, he and the village chief had already taken oil paper bags and wrapped all the vegetables without soup.

Melome “…”

"Let's eat!"

The village chief looked at the three large bowls of soup on the table, then sat down and started eating happily with Mei Laoer.

After dinner, Melome went to the front desk to pay.

Although Sun Changdun said he would eat for free, Melo Mei still forcefully paid the money.

Everyone gets what they need, and try not to owe any favors if you can.

"Dad, our family just split up and we need to buy a lot of things. I want to buy some things back."

Walking to the street, Melome grabbed Mei Laoer's sleeve.

"You go ahead, I won't go. I'll wait for you on the bullock cart." The village chief touched his belly.

Too full! Can’t walk.

"I..." No money.

"Let's go, Dad."

Seeing that the village chief refused to go, Melo Mei asked him to help carry the packed vegetables and newly bought clothes to the oxcart, and then she took Mei Lao Er and left.

Soon they arrived at the grain and oil store, and Merome walked in in a few steps.

"Shopkeeper, bring me one hundred catties of rice, fifty catties of flour, and twenty catties of oil."

She will eat white rice every meal from now on.

Although the system can buy grain, and the price is cheap, it is difficult to explain. You can only buy some outside, which will be convenient when the time comes.

"Little girl, are you sure you want to buy so much?"

The shopkeeper asked Melo Mei, but his eyes were on Mei Lao Er who was following behind.

Melome: "Don't look at my father. I am the head of our family. You can buy as much as I say."

Looking at Mei Laoer, he smiled cutely and said, "Isn't that right, dad?"

Mei Laoer smiled innocently, "My daughter has the final say in my family."

Shopkeeper: "..."

Melome ordered the things she needed, paid the money, and asked the shopkeeper to help deliver the things to the oxcart, and then continued to visit the next store.

Thinking that all the pots and pans at home were broken, Melome bought dozens of bowls, more than a dozen plates, and dozens of small jars. Then she ran to the blacksmith shop and bought a few pots and two pots.

kitchen knife.

When I came to a meat stall, I waved my little hand and said, "Boss, here are twenty kilograms of meat, five kilograms of ribs, and a pair of pig meat."

"Sanya, buy less. If you don't let it go, the weather will be too hot and it will go bad in a short time."

Mei Laoer has been numb to his daughter's purchasing power for a long time, but meat is easy to spoil, so he still asks her to buy less.

"Dad, after buying this meat, we won't just eat it ourselves. We will have to take the village chief's grandpa's car in a while, so we need to give him some gifts, right? Aunt Wang used to give us food, but now that we have separated, we can make our own decisions.

Do you need to give me some gifts? And the clan leader..."

Melome counted the people who had helped her family one by one.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Mei Laoer thought for a moment and realized that was indeed the case.

The two cut the meat and went to buy some food.

"Sanya, it's time to go back."

Mei Lao Er has already carried a large basket of things on his back. This basket was also bought by Mei Luomei.

"Okay dad, come back soon."

Melome walked forward while answering, and suddenly saw a jewelry store.

"Dad, let's go buy some jewelry for Mom and the others."

Melo Mei remembered that her mother's only silver hairpin was given to Zhang Meihua.

Mei Laoer looked at his daughter and was very moved.

Melome knew that he didn't have much money on him, so he just smiled and said: "Let's go and take a look first."

It was the first time she entered an ancient jewelry store. Merlome was also very curious. She leaned on the counter with her feet up and looked inside.

"What do you want to buy, little girl?"

The shopkeeper noticed Merome and came over.

"Take out all the beautiful jewelry you have here and let me take a look. I want to buy some gifts for my family."

"Look at these. They are all the latest models in the county. They just arrived yesterday."

The shopkeeper brought a few boxes and put them on the counter.

Melo Mei looked at it and said to Mei Laoer: "Dad, come and choose one for Mom."

Mei Laoer came over, with trembling hands, and finally took an inconspicuous one and asked stammeringly: "This, how much is this?"

Here comes a poor man!

The shopkeeper's mouth twitched and he said expressionlessly: "One penny."

So expensive!

Mei Laoer hurriedly put down his things.

"Sanya, let's go."

"Dad, I haven't bought it yet."

Melo Mei didn't leave, so she picked up the silver hairpin Mei Lao Er had just chosen and looked at it, "This hairpin is so thin."

The incense stick is so big, how can it not be thin?

Shopkeeper: "This is the cheapest silver hairpin in our store."

Melome: "We don't want this, it's too ugly. We can use other things, such as bracelets, earrings, gold hairpins, hair flowers, etc., but they must be of good quality."

The shopkeeper looked at the little girl for a few times, hesitated to say anything, and finally reluctantly went aside. After a while, he brought back some new jewelry.

Melome took them out one by one and looked at them carefully, and finally selected a few pairs of silver earrings, a few silver bracelets and four silver hairpins, as well as some beads, hair flowers and other items.

Lin Zongzong bought a small bag, which made Mei Laoer look stunned.
