Chapter two hundred and thirty first quilt

Chen Yuru spent a lot of effort to walk to the street. Her face was almost frozen, especially her ears, which felt like they were about to fall off.

Her hands were also cold, and she couldn't warm her face and ears. She felt extremely uncomfortable, so when no one was around, she rubbed her hands again to warm them up.

After she was warmed up, she covered her ears and cheeks, and her frozen ears began to feel. After being warm for a while, Chen Yuru left the alley and walked towards the street.

The first thing to do in the evening was to buy quilts. They came in a hurry and there were no quilts at all, and there were none in the rented house. Although there was a kang on the bed, they couldn't live without quilts and sheets.

This is a top priority. Aunt Yu next door said that their quilts are all made at home. Otherwise, if you don’t have cotton at home, you can buy cloth and make it custom-made. If you buy quilts directly, the price will definitely not be cheap.

of.

And there are not many sizes and colors to choose from.

Chen Yuru had no choice. They were in a hurry to use them, so she could only try to buy designs that were more pleasing to her eye.

In addition to quilts and sheets, she also had to buy some necessities. There must be pots in the house, but there was only one pot. She had to buy bowls, shovels and the like, as well as rice, flour, oil and salt...

She had heard about her cousin's story this morning. Nowadays, almost every household in the town uses rapeseed oil and boils some lard at home, but only uses it occasionally.

There are two rapeseed oil shops in the town, both owned by the same shopkeeper, her cousin, but one of the shops is managed by a second shopkeeper...

Several aunts mentioned Wang Dayi, and they were still praising him. He was good-looking, rich, and seemed to have contacts with the shopkeeper of Changlefang. The reason why no one came to trouble him at the oil shop was because there was someone behind him.

When they went to buy oil, they met the head of Changlefang more than once, so they must have a close friendship with him.

They heard that shopkeeper Wang was already married, but the second shopkeeper was not married. The young man was only eighteen or nineteen years old, and his appearance was not bad. Now he is still the shopkeeper of this profitable shop, and he is a very popular person.

.

Many matchmakers have wanted to introduce him to the marriage, but the decision has not been finalized yet. I guess they are well-off and very picky about girls...

Chen Yuru listened to these many words and extracted important information. The business of her cousin's shop was better than she imagined, and there were already two shops in the town.

Her cousin also had an acquaintance, a powerful person in the town, who was the shopkeeper of Changlefang. Chen Yuru didn't know what kind of shop Changlefang was, so she asked specifically. It turned out that Changlefang was the most popular shop in the town.

There are also two famous gambling houses, both of which belong to the Wang family.

When it comes to Changlefang, no one has any dislike for gambling houses. They just vaguely say that they can't afford to offend them. They are rich and powerful, and no one dares to offend them.

No matter how much things a few women could know, Chen Yuru just remembered it in her heart. She had to go and inquire about it. She had to find out everything about her cousin.

There is another person who should be a good friend of my cousin, and he has a very good relationship with me. If my cousin can entrust a shop to that person, he must be very trustworthy.

She happened to be buying oil, and now her cousin didn't know she was staying in town. So she wasn't ready yet, and it was hard to appear in front of him, so as not to alert him.

Then she went to meet this cousin's friend. She heard that he was about the same age as her, and most importantly, he was very talkative and always smiled at others.

Chen Yuru went over the matter in her mind, then calmed down and started the first thing, buying a quilt.

All places where custom-made quilts are made can buy ready-made quilts, but they are not easy to sell. Everyone is willing to choose the fabric by themselves and then make them custom-made. Even if they are in urgent need, they may buy ready-made quilts.

Chen Yuru was the one who was in a hurry to buy quilts. There were three shops in the town where she could buy quilts. The aunts were very enthusiastic and told her that this shop's business was better and that the cotton used in the quilts was all new cotton and they would not use inferior ones.

Chen Yuru would still listen to those women. After all, they had lived in the town for many years and it was much better than when she first arrived.

But after arriving, Chen Yuru was still a little disappointed. This was the best shop in town, but the quilt was still very ugly.

The patterns and colors are very fancy, or they are very old-fashioned. In her opinion, this is not a little backward, the patterns and colors are from many years ago. And she can tell when she touches it, the fabric is very poor, covering her body

It will probably be annoying.

The guy was very happy when he saw a very well-dressed girl coming over. The younger the girl is, the more expensive the things she buys. They all like to buy good ones. Especially this girl doesn’t seem to be short of money. Oh my, today

This is a big business!

Then he happily came over to greet her. The girl had already touched the quilt, but she looked unhappy. Could it be that she was disgusted?

"Girl, you want to make a custom-made quilt? We have many colors and fabrics here. You can choose the one you like." The clerk introduced with a smile.

"I'm in a hurry and want to buy a ready-made bed. I wonder if there are other designs?" Chen Yuru asked with a forced smile.

"It turns out that the girl wants to buy finished products! There are really not many ready-made ones, because there are not many people buying them, and our shop doesn't make a lot of them, so I will show the girl to them. I don't know if the girl will take a fancy to them."

How could the man have thought that this girl wanted to buy a finished product, which most people would not like. This quilt could not be sold after it was made, so the patterns and colors were out of date for a long time.

But she was in a hurry to get it, so the clerk could only show her around. There were only about five or six ready-made quilts in the shop, so I didn't know if this girl would like them.

They are still very careful. Only one quilt is shown to the guests outside, and the others are put away to avoid dust. If someone buys it, it will be dusty and cannot be used!

Chen Yuru looked at it and saw that these ones were not so dirty anymore, but the colors were still ugly! The fabrics were different, so if she chose fabrics, she would have no choice.

"Is that all there is?" Chen Yuru asked again without giving up.

If so, don't those shops always have good stuff and then put it away so that no one can see it easily? They only sell it to rich people.

"Yes, because there are really not many people buying finished products, and our shopkeepers are not allowed to make so many. If they can't be sold, they will all be left in the hands. If the girl really doesn't like these quilts, then she can make them custom-made.

There are so many custom-made patterns, and our shop just got a batch of good materials in the past two days, and they are very beautiful!" the clerk recommended.

"I'm really in a hurry. I just moved into a house today. There's nothing in it. If I can't buy a quilt tonight, I'll have to freeze." Chen Yuru said helplessly.

"Girl, do you think this is okay? You can buy a finished quilt first, and then make it custom-made. You can make it in just a few days, and we can make it for you quickly. It only takes three to five days to make a quilt, so it's not difficult.

Waiting."

In fact, a quilt doesn't take that long, but their business is good, and there are some custom-made ones that have not yet been finished. It's first come, first served. Even if he sympathizes with this girl, he can't make it for her first. All he can say is, try to do it as soon as possible.

Some!

Chen Yuru was a little reluctant in her heart. She didn't have much money, so she didn't want to waste it like this. In the past, she would have agreed, but now she really can't do it.

If she ordered another quilt, the quilt she bought would definitely be thrown away. It would be too wasteful to only use a quilt for a few days.

The waiter has been a waiter for several years. He could not tell that the girl in front of him was hesitating. He was mistaken. This girl was not the kind who was not short of money. She was worried about the price of a quilt.

"And the girl looks like a virtuous girl at first glance. Don't worry, even if you make a new quilt, the finished quilt you bought before will not be wasted. There will definitely be relatives in the girl's family. Many families need to store a few quilts.

Yes, just in case of emergencies, you can keep it. If someone comes and uses it in a hurry, wouldn’t it be just in time to use it? Taking a step back, the quilts in our shop are all made of good cotton. If the girl doesn’t need it,

Once the quilt is made, just take it apart and use the cotton inside to make a few cotton-padded jackets."

That little guy thought he was really good. Look at his eloquence. Even the shopkeepers may not be as good as him!

Look, this girl was still hesitant at first, but looking at her current expression, she was convinced by her own words.

Chen Yuru was indeed persuaded. She was unwilling to waste a quilt, but now it seemed that this quilt would not be wasted.

She didn't have any relatives, and it was estimated that no one would come over, but she and her mother didn't have many clothes, especially cotton-padded jackets. She ran away in a hurry and brought only one piece with her except the jacket on her body.

is not enough.

This quilt, that is, the fabric covering it, is too ugly. If it were taken apart, it could be used to make several sets of clothes.

"Well, then I will buy a bed first and then customize it. I wonder how much it will cost?" Chen Yuru asked.

She didn't have much money, so it would definitely be enough to buy a quilt, but the money would still need to be used to buy other things, and there wasn't much left at home. She and her mother were going to live for a long time, so it was impossible for her to go without food.

"The girl chooses first. These quilts are of different prices. If she touches them, she will see that the fabrics on them are different. You can tell when you get started, and the cotton inside may be good or bad," the clerk explained.

When they open their doors for business, the customers are also different. Some have rich families and want better things, while others live in the town but their families are poor. They don't have money, so naturally they can't afford expensive things.

Chen Yuru didn't say anything. She touched it and found that it was indeed different. She thought that since she wouldn't need the fabric on it in the future, she would choose one with a better touch. She was used to being pampered. If she used those cheap fabrics

, it will make the skin uncomfortable if it is not properly protected.

There were only a few quilts to choose from. She touched them and frowned a little. She stayed at her cousin's house for one night last time. Although there was no kang, the quilt was still very warm, and the fabric on the quilt was particularly soft.

Chen Yuru originally wanted to ask if there was any better fabric, but then she realized that there were only a few finished quilts in this shop.

She tried hard to ignore the imbalance in her heart and chose a slightly better bed. The quilt material was acceptable, but the colors were hard to describe, and the gaudy ones were really eye-catching to look at!

I don’t know what the shopkeeper in this shop thinks of it, but the quilts made are simply beyond words!

"Girl, you have good taste. The fabric of this quilt is excellent, and the cotton batting inside is also of the best quality." The waiter complimented me flatteringly.

What he said was true. The material was really good. It was just a few years ago. At that time, a lady came to order it and even paid the deposit. But something happened at home, so she didn’t take it.

Already.

"That's it!" Chen Yuru didn't feel any happier just because the waiter praised her.

This quilt was so ugly that she didn't want to look at it. Fortunately, no one else would come to the house.

"Okay, girl, do you want to look at the fabrics and make a custom-made bed? There are many kinds of fabrics in our shop, and they are also obtained from other places. The latest materials in this town must be from our shop.

"

"Okay, show me!"

She was too lazy to go elsewhere. If she bought them all here, it might be cheaper. She needed quite a lot of things, and had to order two quilts. She could only live in a room with her mother for the time being.

After the quilt is made, they still have to sleep separately.

There are also quilts and sheets... After all, you need more than one or two.

Chen Yuru followed the waiter to see the so-called "new fabrics" and was quite disappointed. Compared with the materials she used before, they were just average.

She touched it and found that the comfort level was pretty good. She guessed it was only at this level in this town.

Now Chen Yuru suddenly felt that this was the small town she knew, and it was definitely much behind them. When she first came here, her knowledge was always refreshed.

There were many things she had never seen before, which made her very uneasy. With her knowledge and upbringing, she must be more knowledgeable than the average person living in this town, but when so many things she had never seen came out, she felt

I am the country bumpkin.

Now it is finally pleasing to the eye, and this is the right thing. People in this town think that things that are ordinary to her are new, so that she feels confident.

She finally understood. The mayor of this town was pretty good, and he had a kind of escort team, which was quite surprising. If there was anything else, it was food. The food here was very good, better than the food in other places.

Eat, and there are many things she has never heard of.
