Chapter Seventy-Eight: Disciplined

When I got home, it was past lunch time, Lin Xi took out the key to open the door, went in to see that the hall was empty, and there was a sound of talking from upstairs, knowing that grandma and Ah Qiupo were coaxing the two children to take a nap at this time, so they moved a few cardboard boxes into the house with Xiaoqinggong, and asked Xiaoqinggong to drink a glass of boiling water after moving, Xiaoqinggong was quite shy, smiled and shook his head and ran out.

Lin Xi walked to the door and looked, closed the door, and took advantage of the fact that Grandma and Ah Qiu Po didn't come down upstairs, took out a big apple and a big pear from the space and stuffed it into the basket, and took out another cardboard box, which was mixed in the cardboard boxes that had just been moved back.

What was taken out in the space was biscuits, candied fruits, various candies, melon seeds, peanuts, red dates, longan, walnuts and other dried fruits that were packed in ordinary food bags, which were common snacks for the New Year; Soy sauce, vinegar, cooking wine, fermented bean curd, chili sauce, bean paste, these condiments, large and small more than a dozen bottles, in order to avoid doubts, all the labels have been removed, department stores also have cigarettes, sugar and liquor counters, piggyback on the sale of condiments, Lin Xi can say that these are processed at half price, because they are internal, so people do not label them.

Upstairs, Liao Shuyi and Ah Qiu also heard a noise downstairs, and guessed that it was Lin Xi who came back, but the two little guys couldn't sleep, so they had no choice but to dress them again, and the old and young pulled them downstairs.

Seeing a pile of goods in the middle of the hall, Liao Shuyi and Ah Qiu were very surprised, and Lin Xi explained:

"I've been to the grocery store, and I saw that there was only a very small pork fan, so many people lined up, and it was estimated that I would run out of goods when it was my turn, so I didn't bother to wait, so I went directly to the overseas Chinese store, and the more than 100 overseas Chinese remittance coupons given by Yihui didn't have to expire, so I spent all the money to buy things. When I came back and passed by the department store, Comrade Chen's lover Sister Xiuhong was working in that building, I thought about going up to see her, Sister Xiuhong was happy to see me: a year ago, the department store engaged in a 'lowest-price domestic sale', all of which were good goods, which were only supplied to the employees and relatives of the unit, which was regarded as employee welfare, so I was just in time. These are all picked by me in the department store warehouse, all of them are under half price, and I don't need a ticket! Grandma, Ah Qiupo, don't you know how to make clothes? You can make these cloths casually, install the sewing machine, and make one or two sets for everyone in the family. There are also a lot of autumn clothes and pants, and Xiaoxin Xiaolei's also has them. Oh, these pure cotton vests and pants, men and women, I took several dozens, you can each have a dozen, feel free to wear! ”

Xiaoxin Xiaolei ran over to pull Lin Xi's hand as soon as he got downstairs, and suddenly heard that there were still theirs in this pile, so he immediately ran up to take a look, and as a result, he pulled out a bag of biscuits from the cardboard box, and giggled with joy.

Liao Shuyi and Ah Qiu also squatted down to look through it, Lin Xi opened the cardboard box for them to see clearly, Liao Shuyi's eyes widened, Ah Qiu's mouth opened and couldn't close at first, and then couldn't help but squirp: "My little ancestor!" There are so many things, even if they are discounted, it will cost a lot of money, someone sent it back to you, right? I just heard a voice upstairs. ”

Lin Xi nodded: "Yes, the workers of the department store sent it back with a tricycle." ”

Liao Shuyi pointed to the packaging box of hair dryer and iron, frowned and asked, "What are you buying this for?" ”

Lin Xi replied: "Of course I bought it for use, grandma, I wash my hair at night, and my hair is dry when I blow it, and my clothes have creases and ugly, so I need to iron it to wear it!" ”

"Nowadays, everyone is frugal and simple, all of them are thrifty and simple, not so particular, how can you ...... You're going too far, you're going to be seen, you're going to be criticized! ”

"Grandma, this product, not only one or two are sold in the overseas Chinese store, but some people also buy it back and use it, it doesn't matter. It's a big deal that I'm going to be cautious and try not to let outsiders know I have this thing. ”

Liao Shuyi sighed: "It's not that you won't be allowed to use it, grandma also hopes that you will live a rich and prosperous life, but now is not as good as in the past, we still have to be low-key to avoid trouble." This hair dryer is different from other things, it makes a lot of noise, you use it at home, others can hear it, people want to see it, what do you say? Hair can be washed during the day, and it dries quickly with two more towels, where can I use a hair dryer? ”

Ah Qiu echoed: "Yes, yes, this hair dryer is expensive, only the state-owned barber shops on the street are equipped with it, and the small barber shops don't have it!" ”

Lin Xi: "......"

It seems that she bought this thing by mistake, what should she do now? Do you want her to return it?

"You can't let me return it, I bought it and returned it, it's a shame!" Lin Xi pouted.

Liao Shuyi stretched out her hand and nodded her granddaughter's forehead, and said angrily: "You, forget it this time, buy it back and put it first, you can't use it for the time being." Next time you buy something, I'll let you return it! Remember, you are not single now, you are married, you have a family and a husband, you can't hide the other half of a family's big and small things, let alone spend money to buy so many things and such large items? Especially if you don't have a job or income, and you spend all Yihui's money, how can you make a claim without consulting him? This is not right! ”

Lin Xi protested: "Grandma, although I don't have a job or income, I don't spend all his money, I have my own money!" ”

"Ouch, my little ancestor!" Ah Qiu hurriedly patted Lin Xi: "You can be quiet, can you talk nonsense?" Let the new aunt hear it, and be unhappy! A man wants to be able to afford a wife and a family, and you don't have a job, who will you spend if you don't spend his money? Spend your own private money? This has spread out, not to mention anything else, he will be looked down upon and shameless, so how can he establish his prestige outside? Women, the most taboo to speak like this! ”

Liao Shuyi made an unprecedented face at Lin Xi: "You said that you don't spend Yihui's money, isn't that the overseas Chinese remittance coupon?" Without Yihui's relationship, how could you know Comrade Chen's lover and buy so many discounted goods that don't require tickets? You, you...... It seems that I have to hurry up and teach again, but luckily Yihui doesn't have time to come back, so let's start tonight, and I want to teach you the same way I did when I was a child! ”

Lin Xi scratched her head and cried bitterly, how stupid was she? I bought two Rausch and came back to make myself blocked.

Liao Shuyi looked at the carton again, and was even more dissatisfied: "You picked up things in the store, didn't you think about Yihui?" None of them were bought for him! ”

"Yes, yes!" Ah Qiupo picked up a roll of wool: "This is good, they are all pure wool, these two colors are the most suitable for young people, Xiaoxi must be thinking of knitting a sweater for Yihui!" ”

Liao Shuyi reached out and touched the wool, then turned her head to look at Lin Xi, and nodded: "It's about the same, go buy a pair of knitting needles in the afternoon, and start knitting - so much wool, first knit a scarf for Yihui, then knit a vest for him, and then knit a long-sleeved one!" ”
