MTL - Portable Space: The Peasant Princess-Chapter 1174 It’s fate (1)

 Chapter 1174 It’s Destined (1)

 Gu Panxia looked up and saw a woman wearing a skirt walking towards this side in a panic.

 The woman looks young, probably in her twenties, her skin is sallow, and she is also very thin, just like someone who has suffered from long-term malnutrition.

She stepped forward and pulled the little boy over, and said to Gu Panxia with a humble and apologetic expression: "I'm sorry, girl. Please don't blame the kid for being ignorant!"

Before Gu Panxia could speak, the little boy had reached out to hold her hand again and said, "Sister, the shoes my mother embroidered are very beautiful. Buy a pair! They're not expensive!"

 “Little boy!”

 The woman's voice became much louder, the little boy's eyes darkened slightly, and his hands slowly loosened.

The woman hurriedly held the little boy's other hand, bowed to Gu Panxia and said, "Girl, the kid is so ignorant, I'm really sorry!"

"It doesn't matter!"

Gu Panxia smiled slightly at the little boy, reached out and touched his head and said, "What's your name?"

 The little boy's eyes lit up instantly, like an extra light suddenly appearing in the dark night.

 Gu Panxia Leng suddenly remembered the first time he saw Xiao Pandong when he first arrived in Yuehe Village.

This child is as old as Pandong at that time, and he is just as sensible.

“Sister, my name is Xiaotong! Will you buy the shoes embroidered by my mother?”

 Gu Panxia couldn't help but chuckle. Just when the woman was about to scold the child, she took the lead and said, "How about you take your sister to see the shoes embroidered by your mother?"

 The child smiled, nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay!"

After saying that, he took her and walked towards the shoe stall first.

The woman followed behind with a restrained look on her face and hesitated to speak.

There are not many shoes on the shoe stall. They are all women's floor shoes. The quality of the cloth is average, but the embroidery work is excellent. The flowers on them are embroidered vividly, which is pleasing to look at.

 Gu Panxia counted them and found that there were ten pairs in total, with different sizes. Among them, only one or two pairs were suitable for her to wear.

“Sister, how are you? Are the shoes embroidered by my mother beautiful?”

 The child gently tugged on her hand, with a slow look of expectation on his face.

 Gu Panxia nodded, "Yeah, it's very beautiful!"

The woman on the side raised the corners of her lips shyly, "Girl, you are joking!"

 Gu Panxia picked up a pair of embroidered shoes embroidered with white orchid and smiled at the woman: "I wonder how to sell these shoes?"

The woman blushed slightly and whispered back: "Ten cents a pair."

 “Why are they sold so cheaply?”

 Gu Panxia was a little surprised. It was obvious that these shoes were made with great care. It would not be too expensive to sell them for fifteen or twenty cents.

 The woman shook her head, "It's not cheap anymore, everyone says it's expensive!"

“You are such a good embroiderer, why don’t you try to make embroidery and sell it?”

Although Gu Panxia knew nothing about female workers, he also knew that in this era of embroidery, as long as the craftsmanship was good, the embroidered things were still very popular among the ladies and ladies of wealthy families.

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the woman's expression darken.

“The little boy is sick, and his father’s monthly salary is not enough to buy medicine. How can the family have any spare money to buy other things?”

The woman said, wiped the corners of her eyes and continued: "These ten pairs of shoes were made before he was born. I embroidered a few patterns and put them out for several days. No one has paid attention to them. Yesterday they came. A girl fell in love with the pair in your hand, but she left after hearing that they were sold for ten cents."

Gu Panxia couldn't help but sigh softly when he heard this.

 Sure enough, compared to others, I am indeed much luckier.
