Chapter 16 Who said it was for the little white-eyed wolf
Dongchen State is the largest country on this continent, so this imperial city is also very prosperous and lively. The streets are paved with bluestones, the streets are wide and clean, and there are many shops and restaurants on both sides of the streets selling food and drinks. Gadgets, stalls.
Because it is an imperial city, most of the people living in this city are dignitaries, so you can see gorgeously dressed people everywhere on the street.
It was Shen Wan's first time to visit the ancient street, so she still felt it was very novel, and her eyes kept looking around. I don't know, I thought she was just a village woman!
Although she is the wife of General Zhenbei and is well-known in the imperial city these days, people are talking about her, but because she rarely goes out, the people in the city don't know her.
"What do you want to buy, madam?" Qiu Ju asked, following Shen Wan.
As soon as Madam arrived at the main street, she looked around at the stalls in front of this stall and the stalls she stood by, but she couldn't see anything to buy. So she wanted to ask Madam what she wanted to buy so that she could take Madam there. There was something for sale that she wanted to buy. After all, the shop she went to was in Hehuang City, and she was much more familiar with it than Madam.
Shen Wan looked at the embroidery stall and replied, "I want to buy some fabrics and also want to go to the drug store."
"There is a slave from Cloth Shop in front of you, please take you there!" Qiu Ju said, pointing to the cloth shop in front of her, and there happened to be a pharmacy nearby.
Shen Wan raised her head and pointed in the direction of Qiu Ju, looked in the direction and then nodded and said "Okay". She had almost seen it and it was time to buy what she wanted to buy.
Shen Wan followed Qiu Ju into Cloth Shop. As soon as she entered Cloth Shop's shop, she was greeted by a smart waiter.
"What kind of materials would you like to buy, ma'am?" The waiter bent over slightly with a smile on his face and was very enthusiastic.
Shen Wan said, "I want to see it for myself first."
She has a habit of shopping. She doesn't like store clerks to recommend things, and she doesn't like store clerks to follow her. She just likes to see what she likes first and then just pay and leave.
"Okay, madam, you can take a look around first and call us if you need anything." The waiter smiled and then went to say goodbye to the guests.
Shen Wan walked slowly and carefully, looking at the fabrics on the shelves.
"What's the color and material like?" Shen Wan asked, pointing to a smoky blue Chongqiu Ju made of gauze.
Qiu Ju looked at it and nodded, "The color is nice and the material is good, but this color seems too dark and old-fashioned for a lady to wear."
The lady is still young! Wearing bright colors, colors, and materials of this age is not suitable for a lady.
Shen Wan frowned and said, "Who said it was for her?"
Qiu Ju was stunned for a moment, then hesitated, and asked, "Didn't Madam come out to buy fabrics for Miss to make clothes?"
"No," Shen Wan shook her head and said, "I came out to buy materials to make clothes for myself." Because as a 21st century urban woman who originally owned a closet of clothes, she really couldn't accept it.
Madam is willing to buy fabrics for herself to make clothes? Qiu Ju's eyes widened in shock. Every year at the end of the year, when the general pays his annual salary, he will be given a lot of high-quality fabrics. But all those fabrics are used by Madam for the general and his wife. The young lady and the young master, who were already making clothes, were reluctant to make one for her.
She always felt that Madam's clothes were too old and old-fashioned. She had also persuaded Madam to make her two new pairs of clothes, but Madam always said that she already had enough clothes to wear. But now Madam actually went out to buy them. The lady who had used the materials to make her own clothes had suddenly become enlightened because of amnesia.
"Madam, it's time to make some new clothes. This material is just right for Madam."
Shen Wan said, "Then take one!"
"Okay" Qiu Ju took the piece of cloth off the shelf and held it in her arms.
Then Shen Wan picked another one in aqua blue, made of satin material, and one in lake color, made of gauze.
After choosing, Shen Wan went to the counter to pay the bill. The three pieces of fabric cost a total of sixty taels of silver.
Qiu Ju, who saw the lady showing no reluctance when paying the money, thought to herself that if she hadn't suffered from amnesia, she would have felt bad spending two taels of silver to buy a piece of cloth, right?
At the cloth shop, the waiter wrapped the cloth and handed it to Qiu Ju's master and servant and then left the cloth shop.
There happened to be a store diagonally opposite Buzhuang called Jishitang, so the two masters and servants of the drug store entered the drug store again.
"Madam, did you come to the drug store to buy some medicinal materials for health?" Qiu Ju held the cloth and walked behind Shen Wan.
Shen Wan shook her head and said, "No."
She didn't come here to buy body replenishing medicines, but to see if the drug store had any whitening medicines for sale. I'm afraid the simple whitening methods on this body, whose skin is dark and yellow, won't have any effect.
The owner of Jishitang is a highly skilled doctor, so not only do many people come to buy medicines in this medicine shop, but there are also many people who come to see doctors and patients.
There is a small cubicle in this drug store, which is where the doctor performs consultations.
Shen Wan and Qiu Ju walked to the medicine shop. Standing in front of the counter, the Baijing medicine boy asked, "What do you want to buy?"
The medicine boy was not thirteen or fourteen years old. Shen Wan, who was fair, fair, and very handsome, couldn't help but look at him twice.
"Is there any whitening medicine sold here?" Shen Wan looked at the medicine boy and asked.
The medicine boy looked at Shen Wan and felt that she really should be whitened. Such dark and yellow skin was rare in this imperial city.
"Yes, my young boss recently developed a whitening pill called Baihua Yulu Pill. Not only does it have miraculous whitening effects, it also makes your body smell fragrant after you take it! It's just..."
"Just what?" Shen Wan asked.
The medicine boy smiled and said, "It's just that the price is very expensive, only five hundred taels of silver a bottle."
This lady is not wearing the Baihua Jade Dew Pill that is not rich and she is afraid she cannot afford it.
Shen Wan did have five hundred taels of silver, but she couldn't spend it all now.
