Chapter Forty-Seven: Warm Sunday

On Sunday, before nine o'clock, Charmanti arrived at He Hansheng's community.

"Sister Jiahui, I'm in your community. Let's go. ”

"Mandy, I'm feeding Jay. Why don't you come up and sit down first? ”

"yes, okay."

When Charmanti heard that she was asked to go upstairs, she was immediately happy, which was exactly what she expected and expected. She took out the mirror from her bag and took a closer look to see if the lipstick stuck to her teeth, whether the powder makeup was uneven, and whether her hair was messy, she was a person who pursued perfection, especially in front of He Hansheng, she did not allow herself to make a little mistake.

After getting out of the car, she checked it from head to toe again, and when everything was fine, she pulled out her hair pressed under the purple trench coat with her hands, and then stepped on high heels into the community.

It can be said that Charmanti is very good at dressing herself up and spending every penny just right. The figure that is neither fat nor thin just gives her a perfect and graceful figure. For those who saw her for the first time, they thought she was a rich lady.

"Knock," she knocked gracefully on the door.

He Hansheng heard the knock on the door and immediately went to open it.

He Hansheng was wearing a gray vest, and his strong and elastic shoulders were exposed.

When Charmanti saw it, her face immediately turned red.

"Mandy, come in." He Hansheng smiled enthusiastically.

"Han-Hansheng, where is Sister Jiahui?" Charmanti suddenly stammered nervously.

"I'm washing Jiejie's face."

"Mandy, you sit down first. I'll wash Jiejie's face and leave. Hansheng, pour Mandy a glass of water. ”

"No, no, no." Charmanti hurriedly refused.

He Hansheng had already poured a glass of water from the kitchen and brought it out.

"Mandy, drink some water first." He Hansheng put the water on the coffee table.

Charmanti looked up, and they looked at each other. He Hansheng's eyes were bloodshot, and she guessed that she might not have slept well because of work.

The sun outside was shining warmly through the windows. The crab claw orchid on the balcony is blooming with delicate flowers, which are particularly beautiful against the backdrop of the sun.

"Sister Jiahui, your house is very hot." Charmanti suddenly felt hot and dry.

"Now it's 25 degrees at home, and the sun is hotter, you see that Hansheng is wearing a vest hot."

Charmanti stood up and walked to the balcony. Leather shoes are crisp and loud when stepped on the floor.

"Sister Jiahui, why did your crab claw orchid bloom so much?"

"I guess it's enough light. It is open at this time, and it is particularly festive. ”

A crab claw orchid has more than 20 flowers. Each flower hangs down like a bell.

Charmanti gently held one up with her hand, and the yellow stamen was blooming in the middle of the red petals, which was particularly delicate and moving.

The whole house is quiet and peaceful, and it seems that there is no interference from the outside world. But Charmanti's heart kept pounding.

"Han Sheng, hug Jiejie. I'm going to clean up. ”

"Sister Jiahui, let me hug it, Jiejie likes me a lot."

"Mandy, don't get your clothes dirty." Peng Jiahui reminded.

Families with children are also more troublesome to go out, diapers, milk powder, feeding bottles, tissues, etc.

"Sister Jiahui, hasn't Jiejie been weaned yet?"

"Not yet. Prepare for this month's break. ”

"Jay Jie is a boy, now one and a half years old, and can be weaned."

"Well, yes. I'll be on duty in two months. Let him get used to it in advance. ”

"It's all packed, let's go."

"Okay." Charmanti glanced at He Hansheng and guessed that He Hansheng would not go with him.

"Hansheng, aren't you going with you?" Peng Jiahui asked again.

"No, I won't. Don't forget to buy me shoes. That's right, with a credit card. ”

He Hansheng sent them out the door and then went back to the house.

They chatted again in the car.

"Sister Jiahui, what are you responsible for in the company?"

"I'm in charge of the personnel section of the General Affairs Department."

"That's good, it's easy and not tired."

"It's a busy day. What about you? ”

"I'm in quality, and I'm busy and chaotic every day."

"None of the jobs are easy."

"That is, especially the private sector, to use people hard."

"By the way, Hansheng asked me to buy him a pair of shoes, saying that they were for work. Does he still have to work on the workshop? ”

"Sometimes there are not enough people to help load trucks, unload and unload goods, but occasionally they don't do it often."

"Oh. The company doesn't let people sit idle for a moment. By the way, how many months do you intern in your company to sign a contract? ”

"Generally three months. Did Brother He sign the contract? Charmanti asked deliberately.

He didn't say either. Probably not. He has been in the company for more than four months. Your company is really true. ”

"Our company is not very formal."

Charmanti hurriedly comforted. Her heart suddenly became sad. She was also sure that He Hansheng hadn't told her wife about yesterday, and her wife had so much expectations of him. She had to pretend that she didn't know anything, and still looked happy.

Soon, they were on the high street.

In fact, Peng Jiahui is only one year older than Charmanti, and when they are together, they obviously don't feel like people of the same age.

"Mandy, you're in such a good shape."

"Sister, you're in good shape."

"Since I got married, I've become a yellow-faced woman. Especially since October 1 last year, Jie Jie's sister-in-law gave birth to a child, and Jie Jie's grandfather was sick and had surgery, and our family has not stopped for a moment. I haven't been here in over three months. ”

"If you have a family, there will definitely be more things. Unlike me, one person is fed, and the whole family is not hungry. ”

"I really regret marrying early."

"Sister, don't say that. Brother He, how good. If I could meet a handsome guy like Brother He, I would have married a long time ago. ”

"What can you do with handsome, it's not as practical as a pack of diapers." The poor life made Peng Jiahui realize that in today's society, ability and ability are the most important.

They laughed, and what they said was from their hearts, but the two of them had different angles.

"There are hairpins here, sister, buy one."

"I don't have a perm, it doesn't look good with it."

Indeed, Peng Jiahui's hair was not permed or dyed, but simply tied in a ponytail, while Charmanti's brown curls looked particularly shiny in the sun.

"Mandy, this pink and blue hairpin is quite suitable for you."

"I'll try." Charmanti said as she pulled the hair on the back of her hair and put the hairpin on.

"Sister, this hairpin is so beautiful," the little girl who sold the hairpin praised.

"Mandy, this little girl is right. You've got this hairpin in it even prettier. ”

"Okay. Then I want it. Charmanti didn't take off her hair clip and paid for it.

"Sister Jiahui, you have such a good vision."

"Where. You look good, you look good in whatever you wear. ”

They walked all the way and soon came to the foreign trade store.

"Welcome." The clerk was very friendly and said hello.

"Sister Jiahui, this store has both men's and women's models, and there are many styles. By the way, there is a baby chair here, let Jiejie sit, it's too tiring to hold. ”

Indeed, Peng Jiahui has been holding Jiejie, and her arms are numb.

They each chose their favorite clothes. Peng Jiahui is optimistic about two, but she doesn't know which one is more suitable for her.

"Mandy, you see these two are good, which one do I want?"

"Then buy them all."

"Just buy one."

"Why don't you buy this one you're wearing? Soon spring is coming, and this light-colored thinner one is more suitable. ”

"Well, okay."

"Sister Jiahui, there are men's shirts here, why don't you buy one for Brother He."

"He likes to slim down."

"Sister, the shirts we have here are all Korean slim. How tall is your big brother? ”

"Around 178,145 pounds"

"Pretty much the same as wearing a 180. Sister, these are all 180 above. ”

"The light blue checkered one."

"Okay." The clerk quickly took it off. "By the way, sister, we still have cotton underwear here, don't you want to buy one for the eldest brother?"

"I used to buy it for him, but it was always too small, and I didn't want to wear it once."

"We have a plus-size one here, like your big brother should be able to wear a 3X."

"Otherwise, I'll ask him. Mandy, you can help me take a look at Jay. ”

Peng Jiahui walked to the door while making a phone call.

"Little handsome guy, give a toy to play with." The clerk gave Jiejie a small robot.

"Jiejie, thank you, Auntie." Charmanti said busily.

Sure enough, Jie Jie made an arch gesture that amused them both.

"This kid is so cute, with double eyelids and big watery eyes." The clerk couldn't help but kiss Jiejie on the face.

Peng Jiahui is back.

"He said he wanted a 4X."

"Hmm. On the west side these are all 4X's. ”

Hearing 4X, Charmanti was not surprised. Because her ex-husband always wore a 3X. ”

A pack of three, Peng Jiahui chose a pack with white, purple and blue.

At the time of payment, Charmanti spent eight hundred and five, and Peng Jiahui spent four hundred.

They went to a shoe store again. The new models are basically more than 300, and the discounted ones are also about 200.

Peng Jiahui couldn't help but sigh that the salary is not high now, but the price is not cheap at all. She took a fancy to a pair of cushions.

"Waiter, how much does this pair cost?"

"After the discount, one hundred and eighteen."

"I think this pair is very good, but I don't know if Hansheng is dressed appropriately."

"Why don't you let Brother He come and try it. The shoes only after trying them know if they fit. ”

"I'll let him come over and try it." Saying that, Peng Jiahui called again.

"Han Sheng, I took a good look at a pair of shoes in the commercial street, I don't know if you wear them well, you better try them."

"Buy a double, four, or three yard, you can look at it."

Charmanti silently thought in her heart: Hansheng should come.

"If it's not suitable, you won't be able to go to work, and if you do, you'll have to go next weekend. Let's give it a try. ”

He Hansheng, who was very depressed, didn't want to go anywhere at this time. However, if you go to work and have work such as loading and unloading trucks, you won't have any shoes to wear. He thought about it and went anyway.

"Okay, I'll be over in a moment. Send me a location. ”

Hearing that He Hansheng was coming, Charmanti didn't expect her prayer to come true. She instantly had a sense of anticipation.

They were also tired of standing, so they sat down on the couch and rested for a while.

"Come, Jayjack. Let's go down and take a walk. Charmanti said with a smile.

"Jie Jie doesn't dare to go, just hold on to something."

Peng Jiahui hugged Jiejie down. Jiejie walked cautiously around the sofa.

Soon, He Hansheng came.

"Look, how about this pair? Try it out. ”

"Is there a four-three?"

"Yes. I'm going to get a pair. "The clerk went to pick up the shoes.

"Jiejie, come here. Daddy hugs. ”

Jie Jie saw his father, stretched out his hand, ran over crookedly, and threw himself into He Hansheng's arms.

"Oh, my good son, he can walk." He Hansheng's proud words were accompanied by some joy.

Charmanti saw all this in her eyes, and she was about to cry with envy. How she wished she could have such a husband and son.

The clerk came over with his shoes.

"Jiejie, come here, let Dad try on shoes."

Jie Jie trembled and went to find his mother again.

He Hansheng gave it a try, and it was quite suitable.

"These shoes are fine, so I want them."

"Okay, please come here and pay."

"Give me a credit card." He Hansheng asked for a credit card from his wife.

"One hundred and eight in total, please enter the password."

He Hansheng felt that it was a little expensive, but he had already bought it, so he had to press the password.

Charmanti looked at the time, and it was already twelve o'clock.

"Sister Jiahui, your family is here. I'll invite you to dinner. ”

"We should have asked you, and now you are still our creditor."

"Brother He, don't be polite to me. Let's go eat the muscles. ”

"But, Mandy, don't mind if you borrow your money for a little longer."

"Where to say. You're welcome. I don't need it urgently, I can use it anytime. ”

He Hansheng is grateful to Charmanti from the bottom of his heart, in this society, not to mention borrowing tens of thousands, even borrowing thousands without borrowing, and Charmanti lent him so much at once, he is already very grateful. This meal at noon, he wants to invite it anyway.

He Hansheng and his wife have been here before, they choose their own dishes, and after the store is cooked, they eat them with dipping sauces, and they all like it.

At noon, there were a lot of people, and there was only an empty table near the counter.

It was very hot inside, and He Hansheng took off his down jacket as soon as he entered. He wears a pink shirt with a white vest clearly visible.

When choosing dishes, Charmanti followed behind He Hansheng. A faint smell of perfume emanated from He Hansheng from time to time.

He Hansheng's body is well proportioned, with a slightly slender lower body, and his shirt tucked into jeans, which just reflects his perfect waistline. The social experience did not leave too many traces on him, and he was full of the youthful atmosphere of a young man. And all this is also the root of Charmandy's fascination.

"Look how fresh these artemisia are, how many will you clip?"

"It's smelly, I don't want it. I still want spinach and lettuce. ”

"Jiahui likes to eat vermicelli, I'll order more."

"I also like to eat vermicelli, give me some." Charmanti was happy like a child.

"That's fine." He Hansheng clamped a big clip.

"Too much, less is fine."

"Do you want beef bone marrow and tendons?"

"The bone marrow is too oily, give me two tendons."

After choosing, they went to weigh and pay together.

"Let's count these shares together."

"Farewell, Hansheng. I'll do it anyway. ”

"This one hundred and two, this eighty, together?"

"I'll come, I'll come," Charmanti said busily.

The clerk couldn't help but smile when he saw the two of them rushing to pay.

"It's better for this gentleman to pay."

"Okay then, I'll have to ask for it next time."

"Sir, please get your number." The clerk gave two numbered plates.

"Okay," He Hansheng looked at the 21st and 23rd.

"Sister Jiahui, look. Brother He has to fight to pay me. Charmanti said with some coquettishness.

"Mandy, you've helped us a lot, let's treat you this time."

"Mandy, do you want warm water or sour plum juice?" He Hansheng asked.

"I want sour plum juice."

"Jiahui, the sour plum juice is cold, let's bring you a glass of warm water."

"Well, okay. Jiejie can also drink some. ”

Soon, He Hansheng brought two glasses of sour plum juice and a glass of warm water.

"Twenty-one, twenty-threeβ€”" the clerk shouted.

"Mandy, you sit down, I'll serve it." He Hansheng went to serve a slightly smaller portion first, and then served a larger portion.

Peng Jiahui was also really hungry, she was blowing and eating at the same time.

He Hansheng was also hungry, and while eating in a big gulp, he didn't forget to put the bone marrow pig blood vermicelli into his wife's bowl.

Charmanti was nervous and excited, and she had long lost her appetite. But she was also trying to eat, and it took three bites of a lettuce leaf to eat. She didn't understand either, she missed He Hansheng when she couldn't see him, but she was nervous and excited when she saw it, just like now, a few of them seemed calm and happy, but this was not her normal state.

He Hansheng and his wife ate with relish, and drank some of the soup, while Charmanti's portion was barely moving, and she was still barely eating lettuce leaves. She didn't want to eat it, and she felt like she was going to vomit if she ate it again. She kept drinking sour plum juice to hide her inner turmoil.

"Sister Jiahui, I'll give you some of mine, I want a little too much to eat. Besides, I've gained weight again during the Chinese New Year, and I still want to lose weight. ”

He Hansheng and Peng Jiahui both believed it, and they didn't feel Charmanti's uneasiness and panic at all, and comforted them: "It's all vegetables, and you can't get fat by eating." ”

The meal was finally finished. Charmanti's share was still half, while Peng Jiahui had three full burps.

They went to the supermarket together again.

He Hansheng pushed the shopping cart, and Jie Jie sat inside. Peng Jiahui and Charmanti walked freely, and soon, the shopping cart was full. Milk powder, diapers, soy sauce, vinegar, apples, grapes, toilet paper, etc., could not be loaded, and Charmanti went to push another shopping cart.

At the end of the checkout, Peng Jiahui was four hundred and two, and Charmanti was seven hundred and three.

Charmanti drove them to the gate of the complex.

"Mandy, thank you for today."

"You're welcome. We'll visit another day when we have time. ”

"Okay. Go back and drive slower. ”

Charmanti drove away.

He Hansheng looked at the sisterly love between the two of them, and he was also very pleased.

He Hansheng hugged Jie Jie and carried a big bag, and Peng Jiahui also carried four big bags.

Buying things, especially buying a lot of things, does give people a sense of satisfaction, and Peng Jiahui deeply realized it at this time.

But for He Hansheng, who borrowed money, he was a little distressed. It's March soon, and a series of expenses such as property fees, utility bills, and mortgages have to be paid, and there are only two thousand five a month, how can it be?

"Spent a lot of money today, right?" He Hansheng asked.

"Hmm. More than a thousand. ”

He Hansheng was silent, he didn't expect that it would cost nearly half a month's salary to come out.

"By the way, hasn't your company signed a contract for you yet?"

"No, no." His wife's sudden question caught him off guard, so he hurriedly lied. "I guess it's going to be soon." He Han was afraid that his wife would be suspicious, so he hurriedly added.

"Your company is too informal. If you do this again, you won't be able to eat. ”

"That is, private companies, where to find regular." He Hansheng's forehead was sweating.
