Chapter 275: Dowry
The girl's dowry in this year is conditional on three turns and one ring, Lichen brought Xiaoxiao over today to buy her a sewing machine, there is already a tape recorder at home, and Xiaoxiao also has a watch in his hand, so he wants to buy a sewing machine for Xiaoxiao, and then buy more clothes and jewelry, and buy Xiaoxiao another bicycle for her to ride another day.
When I came to the door of the department store, the signboard on the door was very conspicuous with white letters on a red background. There are also several large posters put up, and on the white exterior wall of the mall, there are also several large red characters written on the white wall of the mall, 'Develop the economy and ensure supply'.
Inside, there are terrazzo floors, wooden shelves, and glass counters with era characteristics, and many people are picking things up.
From wedding supplies, cloth tailoring, to pots and pans, you can buy everything in it. In this era, materials were scarce, and things were supplied by tickets, in addition to food stamps, oil stamps and non-staple food certificates, industrial coupons were required to buy daily necessities.
The two of them went straight to the place where the sewing machine was sold, and asked for 120 yuan. Xiaoxiao was a little reluctant, this one hundred and twenty yuan was equivalent to her four months' salary, she had money to pay, but Lichen would definitely not let her pay, but Lichen didn't have much money now, and she couldn't let him buy such an expensive object.
Lichen stood next to him, and after listening to the price, he looked at it a few times and immediately said to the salesman that he wanted to buy it, but was stopped by Xiaoxiao.
"Aren't you going to buy a sewing machine? What not to buy? He looked at her suspiciously.
"Lichen, it's a bit expensive, or we won't buy it."
Lichen didn't agree, "No, it's necessary for people to get married three times and one ring, now there is a tape recorder at home, a watch is also available, and the sewing machine does not have a bicycle, I want to buy it for you, buy a sewing machine today and go back again, and then buy a bicycle another day." Aren't you going to make clothes for me, what will you do to make clothes when you don't have a sewing machine, obedient! Don't worry about the money, and if I don't spend it, I didn't give you money before, and I will spend it later. ”
"But—"
"Don't do it, wait for someone to see the joke." Lichen said.
The salesman was watching over there, Lichen didn't want to delay any longer, and besides, the sewing machine was useful to buy back, not useless, and Xiaoxiao married him, and he had to buy her a few decent dowries if he didn't have any money.
Xiaoxiao didn't dare to stop him when he insisted on buying it, and if the two of them had no money in the future, they would go to her small vault to get the money.
Lichen took out six industrial coupons, these coupons he mentioned a few days ago to exchange with people in cash, but there was no place to put them after they were bought, Lichen told the salesman to put them here for the time being, and then come to pick them up after they finished buying.
Lichen pulled Xiaoxiao and went to the place where the jewelry was sold.
"Lichen, don't buy these."
"No! It's all out, if you want to buy it, you can buy it all, and I'll come back after saving. ”
After speaking, he asked the salesman to take out the gold ring and necklace he liked, and tried it on for Xiaoxiao, and found that it was very good-looking, especially Xiaoxiao's hands were good-looking, and the ring was just right to wear, not big or small.
"Lichen, I don't usually wear these, so let's not buy them." Xiaoxiao took off her jewelry and joked, the two-month salary for buying these Lichen was gone.
Lichen grabbed her and asked the salesman to wrap it up.
Xiaoxiao watched a little helplessly as Lichen pulled her to buy this and that, and also bought a big quilt.
When Xiaoxiao was a little worried about what to bring back with so many things under her feet, Lichen asked her to watch things over there and wait for him for a while, and he went to call Renyun.
When Xiaoxiao waited for almost half an hour, Lichen came over in a military car, and Xiaoxiao was surprised that he had found the car in such a short time.
Lichen jumped out of the car and carried their belongings to the car with the comrade-in-arms, and then the comrade-in-arms saluted him and drove away.
Shino looked at him puzzled.
When Lichen saw her like that, he immediately explained to her, "Our troops are not stationed on the island opposite the fishing village, and they will transport things over every two days. ”
Xiaoxiao suddenly felt a lot more relaxed after listening to it, and without those things by his side, he could take a good look at it now.
"Are you hungry?" Early in the morning, I saw that she only ate one egg and half a bowl of noodles, and I was afraid that she would be hungry at this time.
"It's a little ······" It was past eleven o'clock, and I didn't expect to walk around the mall for two hours.
Lichen took her to a restaurant to eat, Xiaoxiao ordered two dishes and one soup enough for them to eat, but Xiaoxiao felt distressed that Lichen spent too much money on buying things in the morning, so she insisted that she would pay when she finished eating.
Lichen looked at Xiaoxiao with some amusement, but she also knew that a girl like Xiaoxiao was suitable for life. The life of the two depends on the situation, when they have more money to spend and less when they don't have money, now they don't have children, but if they have children in the future, they have to have a plan to live, and things can't be bought at will, but he will work hard to maintain and run this family.
After the two walked out, Lichen took Xiaoxiao to the photo studio to take pictures.
"Lichen, haven't we already taken pictures before?"
"Today is different, it's to take wedding photos, you see I'm still wearing such a formal dress today, and I'm going to let you wear the best clothes in the morning, just to take pictures."
Xiaoxiao thought to herself, no wonder, when she came out before, Lichen also deliberately asked her to go back to the house to change into a set of beautiful clothes, it turned out that she wanted to take pictures.
The photo will not be picked up until a few days later, and when the two of them walked out, Lichen was going to take Xiaoxiao to the park over there to have a look, but as soon as the two of them walked out of the door, a cow was rushing over.
The people around him were so frightened that they hurriedly avoided it, Lichen was quick and pulled Xiaoxiao behind him, and the car suddenly changed direction and rushed towards Xiaoxiao's side.
Xiaoxiao and Lichen just breathed a sigh of relief, and they were almost hit just now, and within a few seconds, they heard the sound of people crying for help not far in front of them.
"Stand here and don't move!"
After Li Chen threw down this sentence, he immediately ran to the front.
The cow became even more crazy after being beaten, seeing that several people were trampled, Lichen touched his waist, no matter what, it is most important to protect everyone's safety first.
"Bang!" With a bang, the cow was shot and fell down in pain, and there was a hole in the cow's belly that was bleeding out at the moment. The ox fell to the ground and wailed for a while, as if it was already awake, but it was too late, and after a short time it slowly closed its eyes.
The people around were relieved, they had just been frightened by the mad cow and everyone hid on the side of the street, and the owner of the cow did not dare to investigate who killed the cow when he saw this, because he didn't know what to do with the aftermath of this disaster.
