Chapter 248 The Sick Cannon Fodder in the Chronicle 8
*
The conditions in the county are much better than in the countryside. The department stores sell everything. Tong Hui has taken Yun Wu into the city twice before.
Although Xu Xingzhou and Yun Wu were dressed simply, they couldn't resist being good-looking. One was a tall, handsome guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and the other was a fair-skinned and beautiful girl who looked delicate and weak.
As soon as she entered the door, a salesperson came up to say hello. She saw that these two people were dating. It was a coincidence that Yun Wu was wearing a blue sweater today, and Xu Xingzhou's coat was also blue.
"What do you two comrades want to buy?"
The salesperson spoke a local dialect with a slight accent and sounded quite friendly.
"Sewing machines, radios, watches and bicycles."
Xu Xingzhou said fluently. He had called Zhou Yi specifically before to find out about the bride price.
The radios he mentioned were essential items.
The salesman knew as soon as he heard that the two people were getting married, because the things he mentioned were all necessary gifts.
"Which one do you like?"
Xu Xingzhou asked Yun Wu beside him. Yun Wu couldn't make up her mind either, so she chose a few at random.
Xu Xingzhou still felt that it was lacking, so he picked out a red wedding quilt and window grilles with the word "happy", and then bought some odds and ends that he needed at home.
I thought that Xu Xingzhou would be fine after buying these things, but he didn't expect that he asked the salesperson to pick up a TV set!
A trace of surprise flashed in Yun Wu's eyes, because this TV was very expensive. In the past, the only wedding gifts she had seen were radios and the like.
The money to buy a TV is several months' salary for an ordinary family, so few people are willing to buy it.
Xu Xingzhou felt that since he was marrying someone, he should pay for the bride price well. If he was not willing to spend this little money, why would he marry him?
Although he had the money with him when he temporarily left the military area, and there was still some money left after he bought a house and farmland, he didn't think about spending it on himself. Most of it was used to buy betrothal gifts. Anyway, he worked hard. You can still make money.
He couldn't do it if he had to go back to the military area to ask for money from the old man after he got out.
"Comrade, our manager said that if you buy a lot, you can let your lesbians pick out some pajamas. They are given as gifts from our department store. They are free of charge. Our ladies' pajamas are all made from foreign countries and are suitable for the couple you are planning to get married."
The salesperson said with a smile on her face. Next to the electrical appliances on this floor is a place selling women's pajamas, which also sells the most popular underwear.
It was actually because Xu Xingzhou bought a lot of these things and they were expensive, so they gave him some extra things.
Xu Xingzhou just turned his head and glanced, and saw some with very little fabric among a group of colorful pajamas...
He suddenly turned his head, pretended to be nonchalant, coughed twice, and then said to Yun Wu:
"They all...are pretty good-looking. You go pick something out. I'm a grown man and won't go in. I'll go and carry the shopping to the car."
"it is good……"
Yun Wu blushed and nodded, looking so delicate and soft that Xu Xingzhou swallowed his Adam's apple.
Xu Xingzhou also thought about it. It would be best for him to help Yun Wu choose, but he is a serious person, how could he do this?
Xu Xingzhou immediately started working. He declined the help of the male salesperson in the department store, took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and moved the heavy TV.
He was very strong, so he moved the purchased appliances into the car in a few seconds, and then stood next to the jeep waiting for Yun Wu to come out.
There are still cars in the city, but military jeeps are not common. Only people in the military area can drive them, so they attract a lot of attention.
In addition, Xu Xingzhou was handsome, and many young women looked at him when he walked out of the department store.
After a while, Yun Wu also came out, holding a shopping bag in her hand. The petite little person looked a bit frail, but there was still some blush on her fair cheeks.
Xu Xingzhou walked over quickly, lowered his eyes slightly and took the bag from Yun Wu's hand smoothly.
"Get it for me."
His coat was hanging on the crook of his left arm, and he was wearing a black sweater on his upper body. The sleeves were rolled up to the crook of his arm because he had just finished working.
The exposed section of the forearm with bronze skin and muscular lines is particularly eye-catching.
Xu Xingzhou had a rough temper and was not very fond of people with his words. He did not say "I'll get it for you" to Yun Wu, nor did he say "I'll help you" or anything like that. Instead, he directly said "Get it for me."
His tone sounded unreasonable, and his appearance and temperament made him a bit menacing, but Yun Wu knew that he just wanted to help her get it.
Yun Wu's gleaming eyes looked at Xu Xingzhou. After only one glance, she was embarrassed to look at him. She quickly went around to the other side to get in the car.
Xu Xingzhou originally just wanted to help Yun Wu hold the bag, but accidentally saw the contents of the bag.
It's a pink silk nightgown, and there seems to be underwear with very little fabric...
Xu Xingzhou quickly raised his head, mechanically carried the bag into the car, and carefully placed the things on the back seat.
"gone back."
Xu Xingzhou clenched his fist, coughed twice and said, then he took hold of the steering wheel.
"it is good……"
Yun Wu's voice was soft and delicate, and she nodded with a red face. It was really because the salesperson recommended the clothes to her...
Originally, she wanted to pick someone who was more conservative. Although she was going to marry Xu Xingzhou, she was not very familiar with him yet, so she was always shy.
But the salesperson stuffed her with a silk pajamas and selected the most popular style of underwear. She said that girls in the city now wear this style and it can also enhance the relationship between husband and wife.
Yun Wu had lived in the countryside since she was a child and didn't know much about these things. She just felt that those clothes must not be worn outside the house. If outsiders saw them, they would be considered immoral, so she could only wear them at home.
So as soon as she got in the car, her little face was as red as a monkey's butt, thinking that Xu Xingzhou probably didn't see what was inside.
Xu Xingzhou, who was driving the car, was thinking that the pajamas were exactly the same as those he wore in his dream.
so pretty...
Xu Xingzhou drove directly into the village and drove to the door of Yun Qingshan and Tong Hui's house.
Because this car was a rare thing at that time, it was only possible for two-income families in the city, let alone in the countryside.
So the villagers living nearby gathered around and watched. Xu Xingzhou and Yun Wu got out of the car, and Yun Qingshan and Tong Hui came out when they heard the noise.
"Brother, sister-in-law, this is the gift I prepared."
Xu Xingzhou said that he moved all the large items he bought in the county town out of the car very quickly.
"Bowwowy gift? This, so soon?"
Yun Qingshan said in surprise that when he married Tong Hui, he prepared the bride price a few days before the wedding. This is the same process in this village.
But the marriage between his sister and Xu Xingzhou had only been finalized two days ago, and the bride price had already been delivered to her door. So according to the rules, wouldn't it mean that they would get married in a few days?
Yun Qingshan and Tong Hui looked at each other, why is there a TV set in this gift?
