Chapter 8 The Tediousness of Life
At this moment, Liang Xuan threw the napkin in his hand into the trash can on the side, and said to Liang Xia with a smile: "Sister, let's go." ”
"Okay......" Liang Xia said to Liang Xuan with a smile.
Then, Liang Xuan took Liang Xia's hand and walked towards the nearby thrift market, now Liang Xuan still has more than 500 yuan in his hand, and it stands to reason that this more than 500 yuan should be enough to buy two quilts......
When Liang Xuan and Liang Xia came to the thrift market, the variety of goods made Liang Xuan a little dizzy, but Liang Xia was very happy, maybe because she had never seen these before, Liang Xia looked at this lively market, she couldn't help grinning......
"Sister, what are you laughing at?" Liang Xuan asked curiously.
"Good-looking......" Liang Xia replied a little clueless.
The two of them walked down the street diameter of the thrift market, and finally, they saw several stalls selling quilts...... So Liang Xuan hurriedly pulled Liang Xia over.
Looking at the quilts on the shelves, Liang Xuan's plan was to buy two thin quilts, two thick quilts, two pillows, and two mattresses...... However, what he didn't expect was that the times were changing, and the most fundamental thing that changed with the times was the price ...... A few years ago, the price of ice cream rose to five cents a piece, and now it is two dollars a piece; A few years ago, KFC's hamburger for six and a half dollars has become fifteen yuan a hamburger now; A few years ago, the xiaolongbao of seven yuan and five five cages became the current one-hundred-yuan yuan...... The most fundamental factor for this is not that people's incomes are higher than they were a few years ago, but that the overall level of development of the city is higher than before.
Therefore, as Liang Xuan, who has lived in an orphanage for a long time and has not been in contact with the outside world, of course he doesn't know this......
Liang Xuan walked to one of the stalls and asked very politely, "Boss, how much is that thin quilt?" ”
"2m×2m is 150 yuan, 1.5m×2m is 110 yuan, and children are 80 yuan." The owner of the quilt seller replied expressionlessly while cleaning up the quilt covers on the stall.
After Liang Xuan heard this, he said a little incredulously, "It's so expensive......"
"If you can't afford it, don't buy it!" The boss looked at Liang Xuan and Liang Xia beside him, and said with disdain, "Now the quilt looks the same everywhere, the velvet in my quilt is all good velvet, it's really a dirt bun, I don't even understand this!" ”
Being said by this boss, Liang Xuan suddenly couldn't wipe off his face, Liang Xia pulled Liang Xuan's sleeve with some fear when he saw this, just when Liang Xuan wanted to comfort Liang Xia, he saw the owner of another stall say to Liang Xuan, "Young man, come to my house and have a look!" I have cheap quilts at home. ”
Hearing what the boss of that house said, Liang Xuan hurriedly turned around. The owner of the house was an old man, and he seemed very kind...... Liang Xuan pulled Liang Xia over, and then asked, "Boss, I want a thick quilt and a thin quilt...... Actually, he originally had two thick quilts and two thin quilts...... But just now when he heard the price quoted by the owner of the stall, he thought that the money he brought with him to buy these must not be enough......
Listening to Liang Xuan's words, the old man who bought the quilt thought about it for a while, and then said to Liang Xuan very sincerely, "Young man, instead of buying a thin quilt and a thick quilt, you should buy a thicker quilt...... Now that the weather has cooled down, it's not too late to buy a thin quilt in the spring......"
