I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

Ji Xiaobei looked at her and finally let go of his worry.

It’s true that women are better than men. Look at their smiling and amiable faces.

I told you, I, Ji Xiaobei, am not that scary.

"Are you the shopkeeper here?" Ji Xiaobei asked.

"Yes, sister, if you have any needs, just tell me directly. I, You Erjie, can get you the latest styles of materials!"

Ji Xiaobei smiled and asked You Erjie: "Can you make a dragon robe?"

You Erjie was so frightened that she fell to her knees.

"Sister, this is not a joke. We only have one head and it can't withstand being chopped off. Tell me what happened. You see I'm so tired. Why don't you go and bring me some tea!" You Erjie said with a trembling voice.

A boy hurried to the back room.

"You Erjie, I'm just kidding. I want to make a theatrical robe. I want it to be pink, and the style should be something like what the emperor wears."

"Sister, we can make robes. You can choose the fabric. But the style doesn't have to be so supreme. We can make it more low-key, like that style!"

You Erjie pointed at the wall.

Ji Xiaobei saw it as soon as he entered the door, and it was not what he wanted.

But it can be changed.

She said a few words in You Erjie's ear, and You Erjie nodded with a pale face.

No one dared to take the order for the pink dragon robe, let alone the bright yellow one.

"For something this difficult and highly confidential, it will cost more money!" You Erjie said with a turn of her eyes.

"Okay!" Ji Xiaobei said without hesitation.

"The materials are all here. It has a pink base and different dark patterns. Look at it this way, little girl. It will definitely look good if it is worn by you, little girl!"

Ji Xiaobei chose medium-priced materials.

At this time, a woman in her thirties came over.

"Mrs. Feng, please help me choose the silk threads and accessories!" said You Erjie.

Madam Feng agreed.

Ji Xiaobei confirmed the style and size with Mrs. Feng and You Erjie.

The more Mrs. Feng listened, the paler her face became, and she looked at You Erjie anxiously.

"Just do it, I'll take care of the rest!" You Erjie said comfortingly.

Mrs. Feng's complexion looked better.

Ji Xiaobei bought some colorful silk threads from the tailor shop to make a bracelet.

An hour later, Ji Xiaobei came out of the tailor shop.

A total of 3 taels of silver were spent, and a deposit of 1 tael of silver was paid.

The price is so high, it’s not cost-effective to sell it in a shop.

Ji Xiaobei calculated in his mind that, in this case, three taels of silver was about RMB 500, so it would have to be sold for at least RMB 1000.

Sell ​​one set first to test the waters!

"Boss, are we going to start a drama troupe?" Ma Haixia asked the question he had always wanted to ask but shouldn't have asked.

How could he, a scholar, hang out with a bunch of actors?

Ji Xiaobei looked at him incredulously and said, "What kind of opera troupe are you running? Can you sing?"

"Me? No, I'll be relieved if you don't start a troupe!"

"Let's go eat first. I'm starving!"

"Yes, when we came out, Aunt Lin told me to take good care of the boss and never let him go hungry!"

Ma Haixia drove a donkey cart and took her to the food street.

There is nothing you can't eat on this street, only things you can't think of.

It's almost noon and all kinds of snack stalls are ready.

Vinegar pork ribs, sweet and sour pork,

Sweet and sour meatballs, noodles with soybean paste,

Fresh meat sausage, roasted yellow diced,

Donkey meat roast, braised pork,

Fried cakes, fried sanzi,

Spicy hairy eggs, big bowl of beef noodles

……

It was the first time that Ji Xiaobei came to this street. He muttered and cursed Ma Haixia: "Why didn't you bring me to this street earlier? You have lived in the county for decades. If you don't promote the food of your hometown, you really don't deserve to be a Weixian person..."

Ma Haixia sipped his saliva and retorted: "No, I have lived here for more than ten years, not decades. I didn't have the chance to bring you here. This is not the first time we have come to the city..."

"Stop! Stop!" Ji Xiaobei grabbed the side of the car and shouted.

Ma Haixia was so frightened that he quickly pulled Ji Decai's reins, and Ji Decai groaned in anger!

"Go over there..."

Ma Haixia turned around and saw the boss staring at the stall not far away.

Roast leg of lamb!

Ma Haixia swallowed his saliva, turned around and went to the alley not far away.

A rich aroma of barbecue went straight into my nostrils.

"Oh my god, it smells so good!" Ji Xiaobei's fingers turned white as they gripped the side of the car.

With a snap, she broke off a large piece of the car side.

She staggered, and with a bang, she sat steadily on the car board.

Fortunately, the chassis was heavy and did not fall!

"Haixia, didn't I ask you to check the condition of the car when we came? Didn't you notice the cracks on the side of the car?" Ji Xiaobei threw the piece of wood in his hand far away.

Ma Haixia: Are you sure you didn’t force it off?

Ma Haixia felt aggrieved, but it didn't show on his face at all.

He smiled and said, "Boss, this car is in such a state of disrepair, it's time to repair it. Don't let this little thing affect your good mood. Let's go in!"

Ma Haixia tied up Ji Decai and made a gesture of invitation.

Ji Xiaobei called a boy and asked him to feed Ji Decai and then brush his body. He was covered in dust and looked like a real donkey.

The yard of this shop is very big. The chef who roasts lamb legs is busy in the yard, and the yard is filled with rich aroma.

Ji Xiaobei and the others followed the waiter into the house.

There was a large hall in the house, where shirtless men sat around a table, eating meat and drinking wine.

Ji Xiaobei frowned.

The waiter immediately said, "Madam, we have a private room. Please come this way!"

Across the hall, there is a row of single rooms. Ji Xiaobei chose a room called "Tingyuxuan".

The waiter looked embarrassed and said, "Madam, this room has been reserved!"

Ji Xiaobei looked at the "weeping willow" next door.

"Then let's go with this one!"

The young man opened the door with a smile.

"Sir, our specialties here are roasted whole lamb, roasted lamb legs, roasted lamb skewers, lamb soup, and large shank bones..."

"Which one is faster?" Ji Xiaobei asked before he finished speaking.

"Grill lamb skewers and lamb soup faster, roast the whole lamb slower..."

"First, 100 skewers of lamb, one roasted whole lamb! A plate of lettuce, a plate of cucumbers and green onions, and a dish of soybean paste!"

Ji Xiaobei couldn't stand the delay in ordering food, so he asked for it directly.

The waiter was stunned and waved his hands hurriedly, saying, "Madam, you two can't eat so much. One hundred skewers of lamb are more than enough..."

"If we can't finish it, we'll take it away. You go and serve the dishes! Get us some snacks to fill our stomachs first!" Ji Xiaobei rolled up his sleeves and said with a frown.

The young man was frightened by this and took two steps back and said, "Please wait a moment, I'll go right away..."

He ran just two steps, then suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "Sir, we don't have cucumbers here, we only have green melons!"

"Okay, okay, green melon is green melon!"

"Okay!" The boy turned around and ran, almost tripping over the threshold.

Two pairs of hungry green eyes stared at the boy's back and swallowed hard.
