"Ruorou, when will you return to Beijing?" Speaking of Beijing, Gu Yin thought of what she planned to ask Song Ruorou for help with.

"Well... I may have to go back in two or three days." Speaking of returning to Beijing, Song Ruorou was a little depressed. She had no friends to play with in Beijing.

"Hehe... Can I ask you for a favor?" Gu Yin turned to Song Ruorou and walked backwards, holding milk tea in both hands, with a smile on her face and a flattering tone.

Song Ruorou looked at Gu Yin's unusual look, narrowed her eyes and asked suspiciously, "Are you trying to trick me?"

"How is that possible? We are no match for each other."

"Then you tell me first."

"It's like this, my mother and I are planning to open a clothing store, and we're in need of a model, so I thought of you."

"Model?" Song Ruorou asked doubtfully.

"Yeah." Gu Yin nodded, turned around and walked side by side with Song Ruorou, explaining, "It means wearing new clothes to crowded places so that more people can see them."

"Oh..." Song Ruorou nodded thoughtfully, "You asked me when I would return to Beijing, and then asked me to help you with something. Did you mean you wanted me to go back to Beijing and show off my new clothes?"

"That's what I mean." Gu Yin's voice rose slightly, "There should be a lot of banquets when you return to Beijing for the New Year. Put on the new clothes I gave you, and I guarantee you will be the most beautiful girl in the whole place!"

Song Ruorou said excitedly, "Really?"

"You still don't believe me?" Gu Yin glanced at her and said confidently.

"Believe it, believe it!" Song Ruorou replied quickly.

Gu Yin smiled brightly: "So you agree?"

"It's a small matter!" Song Ruorou said arrogantly, as if she had completely forgotten who was hesitant just now.

"Then I'd like to thank you first." Gu Yin said happily, "But I promise I won't let you down."

"Then I'll wait!" Although Song Ruorou said this, she didn't really take it to heart. She never cared much about dressing up.

"Ayin, look, those little gadgets over there seem to be quite good." Song Ruorou's sight was suddenly attracted by a small stall nearby. "Let's go and take a look."

Song Ruorou dragged Gu Yin to the stall without saying anything.

"Ladies, take a look and see if there is anything you like." The stall owner was an old lady with gray hair and wrinkles all over her face.

Gu Yin looked in front of the old woman. There was a small table covered with a dark blue linen cloth. On the linen cloth were various small wooden objects. Some of the objects had a small hole drilled in them and were tied with ropes of various colors.

"How much is this?" Song Ruorou asked as she picked up a small and cute dragonfly.

"These items are three cents each, and five cents if you buy two. Would you like to take two, young lady?" The old woman had a kind face and a gentle voice.

After saying this, he seemed to be worried that they would think it was expensive, so he explained, "Girls, don't underestimate this object because it is small. It takes a lot of effort to carve it."

"Grandma, are these made at home?" Gu Yin was curious. These small items carved into small animals or flowers were not only finely polished but also carved to look lifelike. The craftsmanship was truly extraordinary.

"Yes, my old man made it. I sell it for some money." When the old woman mentioned her husband, a light flashed in her cloudy eyes and her tone was full of joy.

"Grandpa is really amazing. These things are so beautiful." Gu Yin praised sincerely, then squatted down and picked them up.

When the old woman heard Gu Yin praising her husband, the wrinkles on her face deepened a little.

Gu Yin quickly picked two very small peonies, looked at the ropes tied behind the flowers, and looked at the old woman: "Old woman, do you have any extra ropes?"

"Yes, yes, I'll give it to you later." The old woman quickly opened her cloth bag and took out a handful of thin ropes of various colors.

Gu Yin picked out two of them and twisted them up and down with her hands. In less than a moment, a braided bracelet was ready. The wooden peony was tied in the middle. It was simple but very attractive.

"Wow... so beautiful." Song Ruorou stopped choosing when Gu Yin asked for a rope. She saw with her own eyes how Gu Yin weaved two ordinary ropes into an exquisite bracelet.

"Do you like it?" Gu Yin teased her deliberately.

"Yeah!" Song Ruorou nodded hurriedly.

"Hand out."

Song Ruorou did as she was told.

Gu Yin put the braided bracelet on her wrist and nodded with satisfaction.

Song Ruorou was obviously very satisfied and couldn't help touching it from time to time.

Gu Yin quickly changed the style and braided another one and put it on herself.

When the old woman saw the beautiful bracelet that Gu Yin had woven, her cloudy eyes lit up and her lips moved for a while but she didn't say anything.

Song Ruorou picked out a few more gadgets and was about to pay when Gu Yin said, "I want all the rest!"

Song Ruorou exclaimed: "All of them? Why did you buy so much?"

"I like them. And there aren't many of them." Gu Yin really liked them. It was rare to see so many exquisite and small things. After picking and choosing, she liked every one of them.

In this case, why bother making more choices? Adults will naturally choose to have them all. It’s not like they can’t afford a few dozen small gadgets.

"Young lady, do you really want all of them?" The old woman obviously didn't expect this.

"Of course it's real." Gu Yin nodded with a smile and asked the old woman to help wrap it up.

The old woman wrapped the things and finally couldn't help but asked carefully: "Girl, can you teach me the knitting method you just used? I'll give you a lower price for these things."

The old woman spoke with some trepidation. After all, the young lady in front of her didn't look like she was short of money, and she didn't know if she would offend the customer by doing this.

"It's not difficult, but... I'm afraid I can't teach you in a short time." Gu Yin didn't mind this. After teaching the old lady how to use this little thing, maybe she could sell it for a higher price in the future.

The old woman was stunned for a moment, but then she took out the rope and said happily, "Could you please braid two ropes for me? I'll take them back and let my good granddaughter learn. She's very skillful."

"also."

Gu Yin untied the rope, tied a few new and beautiful knots and gave them to the old woman. As for whether her granddaughter could learn it, Gu Yin had no right to interfere.

After buying things that satisfied her, Gu Yin rounded up the bill to a whole amount, giving the old woman one hundred coins for a total of thirty items.

Unexpectedly, the old woman refused to accept more money. Gu Yin threw down the coins and ran with Song Ruorou. Unexpectedly, the old woman chased them for half a street.

Gu Yin had no choice but to act like parents in later generations giving out red envelopes during the Chinese New Year. After a lot of back and forth pushing and shoving with the old woman, she finally closed the deal at the original price.

"Pfft..." Song Ruorou couldn't help but burst into laughter, and then laughed out loud.

"Don't laugh!" Gu Yin wrinkled his nose and threatened fiercely.

She is almost becoming socially anxious because of the old lady.

Song Ruorou burst into tears and laughed even louder...
