Chapter 220 The child feels miserable

"Of course it's not the last two words, it's the last five words, cheap and strong, and mainly good-looking."

In fact, he prefers jade, but the hosta is more suitable for the kind of lady who can make you cry with a small step and a punch.

For a "cute sister" like his sister who wants to tear his head off when she fights him, who can punch him into panda eyes with two punches, and who can kick someone far away with one kick, an iron hairpin is more suitable.

As for why he didn't take the silver hairpin, the reason is simple, because he definitely doesn't have enough money.

When Liu saw that Lao Liu had chosen, he was going to pay. Lao Liu waved his hand and said that he had it. Before he came out, he had thought about how to make his angry sister happy, so he took out all his pocket money early.

Already.

"I saved my own money. This is my gift to my sister today. I paid for it myself."

After hearing this, Mrs. Liu smiled and put her purse away.

Remembering that my sister wanted to buy hair ties just now, Lao Liu took three more hair ties, including the hairpin.

"How much do these cost in total?" Lao Liu asked with his head raised in a very gentlemanly manner.

"This pearl flower is worth a piece of silver and the hairband will be given to you."

The piggy bank is a small rectangular box, and each of their eleven little piggy bankers has one. It was given to him by Mrs. Liu to save money.

"But...but I only have so much money..." If he had known that pearl flowers were so expensive, he would have bought a hair tie for his sister. Now it is not enough to boast about Haikou. It is too embarrassing.

The vendor looked at Lao Liu taking out his piggy bank with a smile on his face.

The vendor looked at Ms. Liu, as if asking her if she wanted to buy it.

Lao Liu was heartbroken, but remembering that he had promised to sell it to his sister, he still kept his word and took out his small piggy bank.

When he heard a piece of silver, Lao Liu opened his mouth in shock: "So expensive? A pearl flower is so expensive?"

"Young Master, I'm not asking for an exorbitant price. Look at how round the pearls inlaid on it are, and how lifelike the colors on the green leaves are. A piece of silver is not expensive." The price of this hairpin lies in the pearls and craftsmanship.

Every family is so poor that they can’t open the pot. Who would exchange dozens of kilograms of rice for a pair of beaded flowers? If only a few dozen kilograms of rice were lost, it would be gone!

Lao Liu opened the small wooden box sadly, took out the copper plates of different sizes and counted them one by one to the hawker. When the last copper plate was reluctantly handed over to the hawker, Lao Liu bargained and said, "Uncle, can you take a look at these?"

Lao Liu raised his head and looked at the pearl flower, almost crying.

When Lao Liu saw the hawker looking at Mrs. Liu, he also looked at Mrs. Liu, but this was the first thing he gave to his sister. If he was asked to pay half of it and mother would pay half of it, what's the point?

"Mom, can I predict my pocket money for the second half of the year?" Lao Liu said aggrievedly, especially aggrieved.

Lao Liu wanted to cry. He finally understood one thing. Why did his mother use chopsticks or sticks to pull her hair into a bun when she was in Zhangcun? It was just a better-carved locust wood hairpin. Zhangcun was so poor that all the women had it.

All the accessories together can't make up a pair of pearl flowers, especially the kind with pearls.

"Ah... little master, you can only buy half a beaded flower with this money..." The vendor's face seemed to be confused about whether to laugh or cry.

Liu smiled: "Of course."

Mrs. Liu smiled and took out her purse and counted out the pocket money for the second half of the year.

Lao Liu curled his lips and carefully made up for all the remaining silver coins, leaving only a few coppers in his hand.

When the vendor wrapped the hairpin with a smile on his face and handed it to Lao Liu, Lao Liu was about to cry.

Holding the little hairpin in his hand, the child felt miserable! Half the year's pocket money was gone!
