Chapter 117: The Crazy Christmas Tree
Li Yuxin and Ou Tingting walked around the Norma shopping mall, the two of them were sprinkled between the clothes and the shoe cabinet, and after trying them on, they didn't buy them, which provoked the waiters in each store to be neither angry nor speak, so they had to twitter behind their backs, and wrote the momentary disbelief on their faces.
"Brother Li, it seems that there are a little more people today than yesterday." Ou Tingting looked at the impassable street and said with emotion.
"Today is the first time Nanchong has had a Western festival, and it is a matter of course to be lively." Li Yuxin explained.
"Young people are receptive to new things, and coastal cities started to have Western festivals ten years ago." Ou Tingting leaned on him and said proudly.
"How old were you ten years ago?" Li Yuxin laughed and whispered.
"Does it have anything to do with size?" Ou Tingting retorted.
"It's something to do with what you're telling." Li Yuxin said warmly.
Ou Tingting grimaced at him and said, "Information is so developed, I can't read books, newspapers, and the Internet." ”
"Yes, my Tingting is from the NBA." Li Yuxin praised her with peach blossoms.
"You're only in the NBA." Ou Tingting laughed frequently, causing the people around her to cast envious eyes.
The streets and alleys are covered with "Tiange Down Jacket" banners and vertical advertisements that are very eye-catching between the film capital and the department store, and the sentence "Goose Goose Goose, Curved Neck Song to the Sky" warmed the whole winter.
"Brother Li, where did the down jacket come from?" Ou Tingting looked at him on a whim.
"It's made of duck feathers."
"You lied to me, how can there be so many duck feathers?"
"You stupid! What do Nanchong people like to eat? Braised duck! When the duck eats, what do the duck feathers do, someone has to solve this problem, right? In the end, Mr. Zhang of Tiange came up with a way to reuse waste, just like making a padded jacket, stuffing it into the mezzanine to become today's down jacket. Li Yuxin's joke about down jackets shows that Nanchong's industrial chain is closely linked and closely related. It also reflects the Nanchong people's love for all kinds of snacks, especially marinated products. When it comes to lo-mei, the most famous ones are, of course, the red and white lanterns of poultry eggs, as well as the food company's Xiaoke. As for the braised duck, count the Yang duck secretly made by Old Man Yang, and at night, there are people standing in line on the street to buy it.
Li Yuxin grew up gnawing on a rabbit head of eight cents, and of course he has his own opinions on eating. After the reform and opening up, many old foods in the depths of memory have gradually faded out of people's sight, and Li Yuxin is especially concerned about the oil residue left over from the oil refining of the refrigeration plant, which has a unique taste when placed in the clear soup noodles.
"Brother Li, you see that there is a big Christmas tree in the department store." Following the direction of Ou Tingting's finger, Li Yuxin saw a Christmas tree more than 2 meters high in the main hall of the department store, which was full of dazzling small gift boxes, and the exquisite wrapping paper emitted colorful glare under the illumination of the light.
"It's so beautiful." Ou Tingting couldn't help but touch the gift box on the tree, but this touch turned into a disappointed face. It turns out that these gift boxes are empty boxes that decorate the atmosphere, and there is nothing in them.
Li Yuxin saw her embarrassment, and knew that she was placed by the profiteer again, needless to say, the hundred and ten red envelopes on the tree were also empty.
"Brother Li, let's go to the flower shop." Ou Tingting said unhappily.
"Buying a Christmas tree?" Li Yuxin said jokingly.
"yes, buy a real Christmas tree." Ou Tingting is angry, sticky and more like a little girl.
"Let's go, let's go to that Yusai flower shop."
"You want to go to the shopkeeper again?" Ou Tingting thought of the blue enchantress for 10 yuan a branch, and she couldn't hold back her poof.
The few gift shops on the street are crowded with young men and women shopping, and the variety of Christmas gifts is even more dazzling. In addition to the good sale of flowers, the biggest selling point of the Yue Sai flower shop is the 80-centimeter Christmas tree and the starry sky that is specially adapted to the occasion.
As soon as Li Yuxin entered the door, he shouted: "Boss Xie, thank you for the beauty, hurry up and come out to pick up the guests." ”
"When you carry your mother, you don't laugh, what kind of customers do you pick up." Xie Yuxi walked out of the dense flowers with a smile, and she seemed to have heard Li Yuxin's voice for a long time.
"Hehe, Xie Meinu is not a joker, she is a flower seller." A good sentence passed through Li Yuxin's mouth, as if it had changed its taste. Xie Yuxi listened to it, but Li Yuxin said happily.
"Why do you have time to walk around my shop today?" Xie Yuxi looked at Ou Tingting beside him and realized that she had a trace of Yingzi's shadow, but she had a more heroic temperament than Yingzi, and of course she was much younger than Yingzi. This year, Xie Yuxi realized a sentence from the past guests, the post-70s generation is just showing off the past, while the post-80s generation has been writing the future. The 70's are a group of experimentants living in the cracks of the times, no more than the young 80 or 90, no more than the 50s and 60s of seniority, but the reform falls on this generation, and it also gives them the subject matter of talking about capital.
Xie Yuxi was both envious and jealous, she glanced at the flower-like Ou Tingting with her eyes from time to time, but muttered in her heart whether Li Yuxin was lucky or not, this was the third woman she had seen Li Yuxin except for Yingzi, and one was younger than the other, and one was more beautiful than the other.
"My Tingting wants to come and see what a Christmas tree is." Li Yuxin ceremoniously introduced his girlfriend to Xie Yuxi, and Ou Tingting smiled.
Xie Yuxi also smiled crookedly.
"By the way, there are only 5 of the 50 Christmas trees I just entered, and it's strange that in the past, Western festivals were good for Valentine's Day, but I didn't expect this year's Christmas to be happy." Xie Yuxi said a few words of complacently exaggeration, and her face also became rosy.
"It turns out that people are in good spirits on happy occasions, it seems to be true, what Boss Xie gave us is not a legend." Li Yuxin praised her with two sentences, and Xie Yuxi couldn't close his mouth with joy.
"Sister Xie, how much is your Christmas tree?" Ou Tingting is sweet and will make you forget how sugar is written.
"Tingting, right, I won't make you money from this tree, call you this sister, and my sister will directly give you a cost price of 20 yuan." Xie Yuxi, this is really straightforward.
Li Yuxin hurriedly gave her 20 yuan, he was afraid that Xie Yuxi would have a fickle performance. Ou Tingting walked on the Christmas tree and looked like she couldn't put it down.
At this time, a few people who bought Christmas trees came and bought all 4 Christmas trees. Only then did Li Yuxin know that the tree Xie Yuxi sold was 80 yuan a piece. Ou Tingting smiled and said goodbye to Xie Yuxi, and walked out of the store with Li Yuxin.
A man rushed over and didn't almost bump into Li Yuxin, only to see him recklessly run into the Yuxi flower shop, and sighed and went out of the store, he shouted at Li Yuxin: "Big brother, can you discuss something." ”
"What's the matter?" Li Yuxin also felt fresh.
"Would you like to sell me your Christmas tree?" The man begged.
It turned out that he was buying a Christmas tree, Li Yuxin looked at Ou Tingting and didn't speak.
"Beauty, I'll pay 200 yuan to buy the Christmas tree in your hand, do you think it's okay?" The man spoke widely.
"But, I bought it for the holidays." Ou Tingting said with a surprised face.
"My girlfriend has a birthday today, and she said she wants a Christmas tree, isn't it out of stock."
"Oh." Li Yuxin and Ou Tingting responded at the same time.
"Otherwise, I'll buy your tree for 500 yuan, and you can sell it to me." The man took out a handful of cash directly from his pocket and stuffed it directly into Ou Tingting's hand, Ou Tingting was silent for a while, and reluctantly handed him the Christmas tree. The man said "thank you" repeatedly, picked up the tree, got into a taxi, and disappeared without a trace.
Ou Tingting waited for him to go away, and instantly revealed Long Yao's pleasant color.
