Chapter 171: Accompany my sister-in-law to the county seat to buy things
"You don't usually care about me, how do you know how much I drink?"
Jiang Sui asked if he had a heart, and observed Xiang Baiwei's reaction as he spoke.
It's a pity that Xiang Baiwei has her back to him, and the panic on her face is not seen by Jiang Sui.
"Aren't you drunk? How can you still ask me a rhetorical question clearly? Just know you're not drunk. Xiang Baiwei quickly pretended to deceive him, unlocked the door of the hall, and pulled him in.
Jiang Sui didn't want to be exposed, so he staggered into the house and sat down.
He brought cold water and a towel to Bai Wei, and took his cup to get a cup of honey water outside.
After finishing all the miscellaneous things, he looked at Jiang Sui, who had entered a well-behaved state, to Bai Wei: "I still have work to do, you can stay by yourself, I think you should be fine." ”
"It's very uncomfortable." The corners of Jiang Sui's eyes drooped, and his expression drooped.
Xiang Bai Wei took two steps forward, put his hands behind his back, leaned over slightly, and looked at Jiang Sui with an aggrieved face: "Bear with it!" ”
Then she turned around and walked away.
The moment the door was closed, Jiang Sui sighed helplessly, got up and went to wash his face.
It's so ruthless.
In the evening, Xiang Bai Wei came back a little late, Jiang Sui didn't wait for her, and began to read and study after eating.
When it was almost half past eight, Jiang Sui looked at Bai Wei's delay in coming back, looked at the dark sky outside, picked up a flashlight from the windowsill, and prepared to greet Bai Wei.
As soon as she left the hall, Xiang Baiwei pushed the door and came in.
She saw Jiang Sui, who was about to go out, holding the lock in her hand: "It's so late, where are you going?" ”
"Seeing that you haven't come back yet, I'm a little worried." Jiang Sui walked over and took the lock, "I'll lock the door, you wash your hands and go to eat." ”
"Oh, good." Xiang Bai Wei stepped back, glanced at Jiang Sui a few times, didn't speak, turned around and went to the well to wash his hands.
While eating, Xiang Bai Wei remembered something, entered the back room with a bowl, and chatted with Jiang Sui, who was sorting out books at the table: "Are you sober?" I've been working extra shifts today to deal with tomorrow's business. ”
"What are you going to do tomorrow?" Jiang Sui glanced at him.
"My eldest brother asked me in the morning to help me get some small bits and pieces for marriage, and he said that he didn't understand, and my future sister-in-law also had to buy something, so I was going to accompany her to the city for a walk."
"That's right, then I'll go with you tomorrow," Jiang Sui patted the stack of books in his hand, and continued before he spoke to Bai Wei, "I lack some information, and there are some stationery for the school and the like, I originally planned to go tomorrow, why don't we go tomorrow, if you buy more things, I can still help you carry them." ”
Xiang Bai Wei thought about it and felt that what he said made sense.
Since you happen to be going to the county seat, it's better to just go together.
Early the next morning, when Xiang Baiwei was packing her things, there was a knock on the door.
Jiang Sui, who was brushing dishes by the well, shook the water in his hand and went to open the door.
Standing at the door was Xiang Weiguo and his daughter-in-law who had not yet passed the door.
"Big brother, sister-in-law." Jiang Sui warmly welcomed the two people in.
Xiang Baiwei heard the movement and walked out of the house, greeted Gui Fen warmly, and then pulled Gui Fen into the house to drink water.
Xiang Weiguo, who stayed outside, pulled Jiang Sui to the side, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, the handkerchief was still wrapped in money, and he stuffed the money into the pocket of Jiang Sui's jacket: "I heard that you are also going to follow, you can take this money, and you will find an opportunity to give it to my sister later, it is easy to go to the city to buy things." ”
"No, big brother," Jiang Sui opened his mouth to resign, but Xiang Weiguo was resolute, he could only continue, "Then I will find an opportunity for Weiwei to take it, and buy a lot of clothes for my sister-in-law." ”
Xiang Weiguo saw that he had collected the money, and his face was finally satisfied: "Weiwei has arranged several jobs for me, I have to go to the workshop now, and I will ask you today." ”
"Look at you, your own family doesn't have to say anything outside of you." Jiang Sui sent the person out, then put the dishes and chopsticks into the cupboard, and shouted to Bai Wei, "It's time for us to go, the bus is coming soon." ”
After arriving in the county seat, Jiang Sui said that he could accompany them to the department store first.
When they have almost bought their things, they will find a place to rest for a while, and they can go to the bookstore to buy what they need to buy.
It's a Saturday, and there are a lot of people in the department store.
Xiang Bai Wei was familiar with the way and pulled Gui Fen to the place where the clothes were sold.
When I came up, I first picked out two red dresses for her.
According to the custom here, the bride has to wear red from head to toe for several days, and Xiang Baiwei feels that it is perfect to buy a red dress.
While Gui Fen went to change clothes, Xiang Baiwei herself began to look at the clothes around her.
For a person who has lived for a lifetime, the clothes of this era are a little outdated.
There are few things that Xiang Bai Wei can see.
The two red dresses I picked for Gui Fen just now are very good, the styles are classic, and they will not be outdated in another 20 years.
If it weren't for Xiang Baiwei's low-key principle now, she would have painted her own and found a tailor to do it.
It's a pity, she still feels that she can't be too public.
Xiang Baiwei stood bored in front of the counter and looked around, and soon, she noticed the light blue dress hanging the highest.
This dress is very similar to the southern coastal area, and in this small town that is not developed, it looks very foreign.
Matching the fashion of this dress, there is also its prohibitive price.
Just such a skirt costs more than 200 yuan.
This money is enough for ordinary families to live for more than half a year, and I don't know what is going on in the minds of the people who bought this skirt.
The average person who can afford it!
At this time, Jiang Sui noticed her gaze and walked over: "You seem to like that blue dress?" If you like it, take it down and try it? ”
"The tone of your voice seems to be selling clothes," Xiang Baiwei teased him with a smile, and then shook his head, "Today is to buy something for my sister-in-law, I don't need it, and the high price of this skirt is scary, this money is enough for our family to eat and drink for a few months." ”
While he was talking, Gui Fen, who had changed her clothes, came out.
Xiang Baiwei didn't have time to take care of Jiang Sui anymore, so she hurriedly greeted her and communicated with Gui Fen about the wearing of her clothes.
Jiang Sui looked at Xiang Baiwei, who was rushing to pay the bill, glanced back at the skirt hanging on the wall, and walked over to say a few words to another teller.
The teller looked at him strangely, then nodded.
The morning passed quickly, and I bought a bunch of things from Bai Weiza.
Jiang Sui carried two bags with one hand, and stretched out his other hand towards Bai Wei: "Your pockets are full of glasses, it's too heavy, I'll help you carry them." ”
"No," Xiang Bai Wei shook his head, and rejected him with a relaxed expression, "I can't feel this weight at all, let's go, sister-in-law must be hungry, I'm hungry too, let's find a place to eat and eat something good." ”
