51. Chapter 51

The housing prices in City B are much more expensive than Dai Jiao's hometown, and because they are new to the city, they are afraid of being deceived, so the father and daughter have walked back and forth for a long time, and they have not seen a suitable one for several pairs of shoes.

Dai Zhu persuaded while continuing to go out every day to look for a house. He is not as worried as Lin Mai, there are really a lot of people who mainly come to City B, many outsiders, Dai Zhu has been to the recruitment market a few times...... Holding the board back and forth, ten dollars a day may not be earned.

Doing a cooked food business at home, the people take food as the sky, and they will not be like these people, mainly to find a house with many people. Dai Zhu was optimistic about the first day, Lin Mai didn't agree, he was thinking about how to grind to get her to agree. Dai Jiao saw that her father had ideas, and she was also idle to wander the street, Lin Mai and Dai Zhu wanted to see the faΓ§ade room, and she was also anxious to find a suitable house to settle down.

In these years, the hukou in City B is not like the millions at every turn, and according to Dai Cheng's dead study temperament, he will definitely not get involved in their family's affairs in the future, whether he is a scholar or something, the biggest benefit of the hukou is that he enters the unit or divides the room.

As a former local tyrant and now a poor ghost, Dai Jiao is thinking about the money, and she doesn't like it no matter how many houses there are in City B. But now everything she thinks about is utopian, Dai Jiao paced to the side with small steps......

Compared with her hometown, where water and electricity are not yet developed, City B has begun to see the scale of modern society, with many buildings and all kinds of modern closets, which make Dai Jiao's eyes dizzy, and slowly her eyes light up...... Directly in front of it is a transparent glass closet, a clothing store, and in addition to the wide-legged pants and small shirts worn by most people in this era, there are several cheongsams hanging on the outside.

This store looks cold, after all, most people are fashionable these years and pursue fresh colors, but this one looks a little retro in Dai Jiao's eyes, there are no jeans, leggings, not even sweatpants, and cheongsam...... In the 80s, except for S City, few ordinary women were willing to come out with their arms and legs exposed.

There were very few people in the shop, and Dai Jiao walked in for a long time without anyone greeting her, until she reached the innermost room, she heard a weak female voice, "Welcome, look at it." ”

The owner of this shop is a young and fashionable woman, with curly permed hair, a platinum ring on her hand, light makeup on her face, and a beautiful person, Dai Jiao smiled at her, touched a sleeveless cheongsam embroidered with dark green lotus flowers, and couldn't help but admire, "This cheongsam is so beautiful!" "There are few girls who don't love beauty, and there are few who don't like cheongsam.

The cheongsam is undoubtedly the most feminine garment.

Looking at Dai Jiao's figure, the woman said, "If you like it, try it." She took the clothes off the hanger and handed them to Dai Jiao, she pointed in one direction, "The fitting room is over there." ”

really couldn't resist the charm of the cheongsam, Dai Jiao thanked him and went into the fitting room, and came out again after a while, tidying himself up in the dressing mirror.

The woman's eyes lit up, "Little girl, don't say it, this cheongsam is just right for you." ”

Dai Jiao's age of fifteen or sixteen is between a girl and a woman, and the cheongsam picks up the figure but also shows her figure, her skin is white, wrapped in dark green like a sprout that has just broken out of the ground, immature, but also gives birth to such a bewitching feeling, pure and charming.

Dai Jiao tilted her head in the mirror, and put her hand on her lower abdomen again, she was not beautiful. The shopkeeper was also watching from the side, looking at Dai Jiao's reluctance to give up on the cheongsam, "If you like it, take it, I can give it to you for free." Dai Jiao hurriedly waved her hand, where is there a good thing in the sky that has a pie for nothing.

"If you don't wear it, it's ...... dust", Zhang Lu shrugged, "My store is about to close, you can take it if you like it, and I won't force you if you don't like it." ”

Dai Jiao looked at herself in the mirror, as if she saw the fragrance of clothes and sideburns in her previous life, "I like this dress very much...... Zhang Lu smiled, and just wanted to say something and heard her speak, "You don't have to give it to me, I'll buy it myself." ”

Dai Jiao loves to make money, but she has never done such a thing as taking advantage of a small advantage. Zhang Lu on the side heard her raise her eyebrows like this, and looked at her carefully several times, the little girl looked good, although she didn't look tall, she was slender, and the most important thing was that her temperament was very good, she looked like she came out of a painting, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, "In this way, you do me a favor, I can give you a discount on this dress." ”

"What's the busy?" Dai Jiao was suspicious.

"Sister put on makeup for you, how about you stand and let your sister take two photos?" Zhang Lu said, pointing to the house again, "You can also see that this store is different from other stores, every brick and tile in it is designed by me...... I want to keep a thought", and looked at Dai Jiao again, "Sister hasn't seen anyone wear such a beautiful cheongsam, you think about it." ”

Dai Jiao found a reason to push it, and put down her clothes, "There is still something going on at home today, let's do it another day." Dai Jiao felt a little troublesome, and besides, the family was really busy in the past two days, and the shopkeeper didn't force her, "Then you see when you have time, but try to hurry." She shrugged, "Maybe you'll be out of my place next time." ”

The 80s was a gathering period when a large number of state-owned stores closed down, and there were few individual businesses in this era who did not make money, and in front of the female boss looked like a wealthy family, and it didn't look like a loss to the point that even the store could not be saved, Dai Jiao opened her mouth to ask, but after thinking about it, the two were not familiar with each other.

After a delay outside today, when the sun had set for most of the time when he got home, Lin Mai sat in the yard with the third child in his arms, holding a bottle to feed, after all, he was an elderly woman, and Lin Mai had no extra milk to feed the child.

"Why is everything so expensive in this city?" Dai Zhu and Dai Jiao are not there, Lin Mai is not familiar with many people here, and he can't speak, so he starts chattering as soon as Dai Jiao comes back, "How much is a pound of milk in my hometown?" Do you know how much it costs for San'er to drink those bags of milk powder today? A piece of five! If she wants to eat like this, the family really can't afford to raise it. ”

"Can you still starve her?" Dai Jiao glanced at her mother, hugged her sister angrily, and teased, "It's a good thing that our three sons can eat, and they will grow up fast." After playing with Dai Jiao for a while, Dai Jiao asked again, "What about my dad?" Haven't come back yet? ”

Lin Mai glanced at his lips, "From morning to now, he hasn't even been home at noon, and he doesn't know why he's so busy?" Lin Mai's temper has not been very good in the past two or three months, and Dai Jiao also understands, after all, it will really affect her mood if it is so bumpy just after giving birth.

"My dad isn't ......" just as he was saying, Dai Zhu came back, "Maizi, Jiao, I'm back?" The sun outside was too big, Dai Zhu went out and brought a hat, just like that, he blushed to his neck, Lin Mai hurriedly commanded Dai Jiao, "Go and pour water for your father." After Dai Zhu sat down and rested for a while, she asked again, "How is it today?" ”

Dai Zhu poured water, "Maizi, I'm thinking, or let's rent the room that Dai Jiao and I saw on the first day...... It's been a few days, and I haven't found anything better than that. "Lin Mai is in a hurry these days, now that the two children are older, and they are in a place like City B, if they really don't have a livelihood, they can go back to their hometown to farm, what should the children do?

Dai Cheng, who is about to get married, plus Dai Jiao, Lin Mai also plans to ask someone to do the school for her as soon as the house is found. It can't be like this.

"Isn't the price a little too high there?" She gritted her teeth, she couldn't see the hard work of the two people running out every day in the past two days, but she was afraid that the business would be lost, and she wouldn't be able to keep the last bit of her belongings.

"You can always earn it back." Dai Zhu immediately lobbied as soon as he saw that there was a play, and even glanced at Dai Jiao several times, Dai Jiao hurriedly added, "It's better than just entering and not leaving now, besides, this business is like going to the battlefield, we don't even have a good guy, how can we fight this battle?" ”

Father and daughter, you and I said a word, Lin Mai originally felt that the two of them were hard, gritted his teeth and finally carefully pulled out the money from his pocket. Dai Zhu and Dai Jiao glanced at each other, and finally exhaled, this afternoon Dai Zhu went to book the room alone, and when he saw that there were more people, he was not the same honest as before, a big brother, pestering people to cheapen the rent by dozens of yuan.

After the house is booked, not only is he not idle, but he is also busier than before, Lin Mai is used to careful calculations, even if he has a lot of spare money now, he wants to keep it for his children, and Dai Jiao does not let Dai Jiao see these things on the table, young people are always extravagant, she is not at ease. Dai Jiao is tired of running around these days, and besides, the business is originally her parents' business, she can't keep pushing behind her buttocks, and more importantly, she is lazy.

It doesn't matter, just hold San'er and just take a cool ride in the yard. is not idle, these days their family lives in an alley, because there are children at home, afraid of encountering any danger, Lin Mai chose an expensive place where his family lives, and it is full of locals. Dai Jiao will give the cured meat made by Lin Mai to each household every once in a while, plus she herself is clever and can speak, and some xenophobic locals can smile and say a few words when they see it.

This weekend, Daicheng school is on vacation, the store at home is open, Dai Zhu looks at the room is not big, more than 100 square meters of land, there are 30 square meters in the back is the kitchen, the front guests eat the majority, there are about a dozen sets of tables and chairs in it, which are wiped neatly by Lin Mai, Dai Zhu carried back the customized signboard, and hung it up with Dai Cheng.

"It's a little crooked, a little to the right." Dai Jiao looked up at the gilded signboard, while directing the two of them, and after the signboard was hung up, she carried two strings of firecrackers to the door, and when the two people came down, they immediately lit the firecrackers, and covered their ears to the side.

"The new store has opened, everyone is going inside!" On the one hand, Dai Cheng couldn't shout, Dai Zhu and Lin Mai went to the kitchen early to prepare, and Dai Jiao shouted alone.

After all, the new store has just opened, and the advertising is not easy at this time, and there are not many customers on the first day.
