It's just that Jiang Mei and Xiao Xin kept talking and discussing what to eat, so they didn't pay attention.

The next day, they changed into their own clothes. The clothes Jiang Mei brought from home were not very good. She always wanted to be low-key.

But Xiao Xin and Xiao Qin's own clothes were obviously too low-grade. They were just ordinary coarse cotton cotton clothes with no style at all. Fortunately, they didn't have patches, so they were better at keeping warm.

Seeing this, Jiang Mei felt a little sorry for their birth. Unlike her situation, they came to work as slaves because their families were really poor.

They got up early in the morning, and Jiang Mei went out with a curtain and hat. They were not allowed to go in and out through the front door, so they could only go out through the corner door in the backyard.

They took the entrance and exit sign, and after going out, Xiao Xin led the way.

Jiang Mei pulled Xiao Xin and asked, "How long do we have to go?"

"It won't take long, at most two-quarters of an hour." Thinking of the delicious food not far away, Xiao Xin felt that it was just around the corner.

They had already walked a lot just after leaving the Prince's Mansion, and Jiang Mei felt that she was walking with difficulty.

Although she has gained some exercise working in the Prince's Mansion these days, she was born a young lady after all.

Although the Jiang family is not visible, there are carriages everywhere they go. It can be said that they were raised pampered, so how could they have the opportunity to walk so many roads.

Xiao Xin was a careless person and could not see Jiang Mei's discomfort. However, Xiao Qin saw that Jiang Mei seemed to not want to leave anymore. She felt that Jiang Mei was squeamish and a slave had given birth to a young lady.

But he said: "If you can't walk, you can sit in a bullock cart later."

Xiao Xin turned to look at Jiang Mei in surprise, and asked curiously: "Does your foot hurt and you can't walk?"

Jiang Mei nodded lightly.

Xiaoqin thought that she was different from them after all.

So the three of them waited for a while. There was a bullock cart coming, and there would be a cart behind it. There were two rows of wooden benches on both sides of the cart, where people could sit and goods could be pulled in the middle.

Those who don't want to walk can take a bullock cart. These rides are for the poor. Those with a little wealth have their own carriages at home.

Xiaoqin hired an oxcart and went to the market for three cents. Xiaoxin and Xiaoqin were reluctant to part with it, thinking that the oxcart moved slowly, so they could just follow it.

Jiang Mei counted nine coins and gave them to the bullock driver and said, "There are three of us."

The uncle didn't know anything. Seeing that Jiang Mei was well dressed and wearing a hat, while the other two were not well dressed, he thought he could win over a young lady today.

The uncle said happily: "Miss, please get in the car."

Seeing that Xiao Xin and Xiao Qin were still stunned, he said to them: "Come on, two girls, you ladies have given us money, come up and let's go."

Jiang Mei felt embarrassed and said quickly: "They are not girls, we are sisters."

Xiaoqin and Xiaoxin were also a little embarrassed. Xiaoxin was still too big-hearted and didn't care about getting on the trolley, but Xiaoqin felt unhappy.

Ordinary people can see the difference between them at a glance. Although it is true, this feeling is really uncomfortable.

"I'll give you the money for the ride later."

Jiang Mei looked at Xiao Qin in surprise and said, "Why, can't I ask you to take a ride? Originally, I am useless and can't walk. You are accompanying me, so of course I have to pay for it."

Xiaoqin touched the dozen or so coins in her purse. There were still eight days left before the payment was due. She couldn't stand up, so she said nothing.

Just said: "Then what gift do you want to buy for your sister?"

She thought that if she spent her money, she should really treat it as accompanying her. She should always help her take care of the important things first. How could she really only care about eating like Xiao Xin did.

She thought about it for a moment and realized that Jiang Wei actually lacked nothing in the Qin Mansion now. She just wanted to do her best to be a sister. She must give her a gift to celebrate her birthday. At least she didn't have to worry and she could still give it.

She gives gifts.

"Go and choose a pair of earrings, and then choose two pieces of fabric that are popular in Beijing for her."

They took her to a silver jewelry shop. In their opinion, silver jewelry was already very expensive.

They can't even afford silver jewelry.

Jiang Mei originally wanted to say that she couldn't go in here, but it was obvious that they looked in at the door, a little timid, just like when they entered Jinlu Pavilion.

She made up her mind and said: "Let's go in and take a look. I'll ask you to help me choose later. I'll use it as a reference as to what you like."

There is no woman who doesn't like jewelry. They are usually short of money, but now they feel very happy when they can go in and choose in an open manner.

Jiang Mei just looked at it casually. Of course she was not going to buy silver jewelry for Jiang Er.

Xiao Xin spent a long time choosing, pointing to a pair of lilac-shaped ones and said, "This one is good, small and exquisite, and the shape is good-looking."

Jiang Mei took a look and found that Xiao Xin's earlobes were very small, which suited her quite well.

She said to the shopkeeper: "Please wrap it up for these two."

Xiao Xin looked at it and said excitedly: "Really? Ji Jiang, do you like what I picked? I just said I have a good taste."

Jiang Mei asked Xiaoqin again: "Xiaoqin, which one do you like?"

Xiao Qin thought that Jiang Mei had already chosen what Xiao Xin had chosen. Although she liked some, Jiang Mei originally said to buy a pair, so why should she say more, so she said: "No."

Jiang Mei knew that Xiao Qin had a strong self-esteem, so she pointed to the pair of leaf-shaped earrings that her eyes had been lingering on just now. They were different from the earrings Xiao Xin chose. They were a thin silver wire with two thin small silver leaves hanging from it.

.

In the end, Jiang Mei bought these two pairs of earrings. Because they were very light, two pairs cost only four hundred dollars. She put them in the purse that Jiang Miao had given her and said to them, "Is there a gold shop near here?"

Xiao Xin opened her mouth and asked: "What are you doing in the gold shop?"

"Of course I'm going to buy earrings."

"But weren't you just now?"

"You just chose it, I haven't chosen it yet."

No matter whether your sister's gift is valuable or not, it is more sincere to choose it yourself.

When they were in the gold store, Xiao Xin and Xiao Qin were reluctant to go in, so Jiang Mei had to go in and choose by herself.

She had money on her, and when she left, Mrs. Qiu even sewed a small cloth bag, which was just big enough to hold the folded banknotes. Mrs. Qiu gave her two pieces of one hundred taels and two pieces of fifty taels.

.In addition, grandmother Tang also gave her a two hundred tael of silver notes.

There were also a lot of gold beads and pearls and some accessories that Jiang Wen had caught for her. She was not short of money, but she couldn't let others know about it. She had always known the crime of harboring a treasure, and her appearance was like this.

So is money.

Today she only took out a fifty-tael note and a few taels of silver.

After spending more than ten taels of silver to buy Jiang Yao's earrings, they went to the cloth shop. In addition to the cloth she chose for Jiang Yao, Jiang Mei also chose a piece of cloth for everyone in the family, but none of them were too expensive.

She knew in her heart that all the money she spent was given by her family. She bought some fashionable materials in Beijing to make them happy. It was good to understand that her situation was okay. She also told them that she was thinking of them.

She wanted to wait until she made money on her own before bringing other gifts to everyone.

So, after buying the items, they found a consignment company to send them to and sent them a letter.

Their mission for today is completed.
Chapter completed!
