Chapter 137: That Kid Is an Orphan?

"I think the clothes of this Marine Corps are better than those of the previous forbidden army, fresh and peaceful."

"Really? Each has its own characteristics. ”

Xia Xiaoshi praised the color of the Marines' uniforms, which she found slightly darker blue-green to be very eye-catching.

Because he was very busy these days, and Jiang Xinzhou's transportation to the city was inconvenient, Zhou Changfeng didn't see her for more than half a month.

It happened that today's New Year's Day, the troops canceled training, prepared a sumptuous banquet and activities, and had a happy holiday, so Zhou Changfeng became the shopkeeper and came to take care of his personal affairs.

Since the beginning of the constitution of the fifth year of Zhichang, the imperial court decided to use the Gregorian calendar, but did not abandon the traditional lunar calendar, and January 1 of each year was designated as the New Year; A few years later, in the eighth year of Zhichang, it was officially named "New Year's Day", corresponding to the "New Year's Day" on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Now it is only after the second industrial revolution, and the entertainment methods are not as colorful as the information age, and the date between men and women is basically in the form of visiting parks, watching movies, eating, and shopping.

In a ready-to-wear store, she hesitated while picking on a dress, "Speaking of which, I think my parents seem to know ......."

Zhou Changfeng was not surprised by this, he smiled: "Knowing a son is like a father, knowing a daughter is like a mother, it is still easy for parents to notice the subtle changes in this regard." ”

"Yes."

"Let's talk about it first, I'm not worried at all anyway, I dare if your father invites me to be a guest."

"......" Xia Xiaoshi, who was full of black lines, was a little speechless, "When did you think about coming to the door?" ”

"Ahem," Zhou Changfeng coughed dryly, "Say it casually, say it casually, it's up to you to decide how to do it." ”

"Hmm... According to the folk practice, if you are sincere, then add another marriage proposal. ”

"Hey, what you said, it's not sincere without a marriage proposal?"

Xia Xiaoshi snorted, "It's just a form." ”

Scold! Sure enough, women care about form after all!

Zhou Changfeng smiled slightly, and said casually without thinking too much: "Don't be afraid, you are already a fish in my fish pond, and you can't run away." ”

???

Damn it! What are you talking about!

Xia Xiaoshi was furious when she heard this, she gritted her teeth and said, "The surname is Zhou, what are you talking about?!" ”

It's not for nothing that the IQ of men and women in love plummets, at least Zhou Changfeng just now purely spoke without a brain.

He said embarrassedly: "It's wrong, it should be a fish tank, and it's only you, a big yellow croaker." ”

"Why is it a big yellow croaker?"

"Because... It's expensive. ”

"Oh, that's pretty much it."

The two quarreled for a few words, and then returned to their daily routine.

There may not seem to be many people in this huge ready-to-wear store, but the truth is the opposite, and the list of clothes ordered from here can be queued for months.

Zhou Changfeng followed Xia Xiaoshi with a newspaper, and the two walked around in this way, and after shopping for a long time, Xia Xiaoshi fell in love with a material, so he called the clerk.

"Good eyesight, this is a new style of three-warp cable Luo, the texture is first-class, and it's not too expensive, it can be described as affordable."

There are many kinds of traditional Chinese fabrics, and the texture of Luo is quite good, soft, light and breathable, which is the best choice for spring, summer and autumn clothes. However, good goods are not cheap, Luo fabric is more delicate, not wear-resistant, not pull-resistant, and more expensive.

Zhou Changfeng glanced at it, and the unit price of "one round star anise per foot" felt a little painful when he looked at it.

The three-and-a-half-foot-wide three-and-a-half-foot cable Luo is 1.8 yuan and one foot long, and the costume for making a set of tops and bottoms must be at least more than one zhang, that is, more than ten feet long.

Obviously, Xia Xiaoshi will still try to save money in this regard, she told the clerk her requirements while thinking about it, "Mix the ingredients, just put it in one and a half zhang......

Assembling is not to use a whole piece of fabric to sew clothes, but to maximize the use of small pieces of leftovers, which can save a lot of money; As for the "pendulum", it refers to the circumference of the skirt after it is spread out, and the longer the pendulum, the more fabric it will naturally need.

After communicating with the clerk, she agreed on the time to pick up the goods, and finally sold the deal at a price of 27 yuan for 15 feet, which is only the price of the fabric, not including the manual tailoring fee.

Although he didn't spend his own money, Zhou Changfeng also felt a little painful, when he was in middle school and college, he never cared about this, he bought clothes and pants casually, he didn't think about spending thousands of dollars to buy clothes and pants, and the habit he developed since then has continued to this day.

Waiting for this ready-to-wear store, Xia Xiaoshi said matter-of-factly: "The new clothes are available, and there is still a hairpin that can be matched with it." ”

My hint should be obvious enough, right? This guy used to be so good at messing with flowers, so he must have understood it all of a sudden.

After finishing speaking, she pretended not to care, but in fact she was waiting for Zhou's reaction.

Zhou Changfeng snapped his fingers and said easily: "This is simple, wait a few days, I will send you a unique one, the kind that is guaranteed to make people sigh." ”

Oh? Amazingly unique?

His words made Xia Xiaoshi wonder, what kind of hairpin would it be? Judging from the pragmatic nature of most men, I am afraid that they will not make a pure gold.

In this way, with the longing and anticipation of the unknown, she still thought about it and the future after returning home, so much so that she lost her mind at dinner.

Seeing his daughter holding chopsticks and staring at the rice bowl in a daze, Gao Linglu frowned slightly, and was about to open her mouth to remind, but Xia Bing next to her spoke first.

He coughed lightly, and when Xia Xiaoshi came back to his senses, he said lightly: "Tell me, which kid is it?" ”

Scold! Today, I want to ask which pig is arching his cabbage!

Xia Xiaoshi, who came back to her senses, weighed the current situation in a very short time, but fortunately, she was mentally prepared and knew that her parents had guessed the roughly, so she chose to confess directly.

"Uh... He is the head of the house himself. ”

"Fatherless and motherless?" Xia Bing felt that something was wrong.

"Orphans?" Gao Linglu's words are even more straightforward.

Objectively speaking, what Xia Xiaoshi said was completely correct, but at the cost of Zhou Changfeng, who had just gotten off the boat and was about to return to the camp, sneezed.

"No, it's just that his father died on the frontier a long time ago, and his mother later died of illness, and then his sister was also married."

"What's going on today? What for? "Compared with Xia Bing, Gao Linglu, who is a mother, seems to be more anxious?

In fact, Xia Bing knew that his daughter was unlikely to be fooled by ordinary people.

After Xia Xiaoshi stated Zhou Changfeng's resume and experience in 1510, both parents were obviously relieved.

In the past two years, they have been thinking about giving Xia Xiaoshi Zhang Luo's lifelong events, but it is not appropriate to choose left and right, and the two are unwilling to wronged her, so they have dragged it on until today.

But what I never expected was that I could really meet such an excellent candidate?
