"Loua is back? I thought you wouldn't get home until tomorrow morning."
"Mom, I'm taking a plane, not a train. The plane is so fast. Whoosh, it's only a few hours away. Where are dad and brother?"
"Your dad is watching TV in the house, and your brother...well, your brother bought you a bunch of junk again."
"Then are you going out? It's so late."
"No, I had a premonition in my heart. I always felt that someone was coming to the house, so I thought about opening the door and taking a look. I didn't expect that my son was back."
Li Xiulian downplayed it, but Jiang Yulou could hear her mother's longing for him.
Jiang Yulou's eyes turned red, "Mom..."
"Who's here, Lou Wa?" Jiang Jianguo's voice came from inside.
Li Xiulian wiped the corners of her eyes, smiled and said loudly: "It's Lou Wa who's back."
"Look at me, my son is still blocking the door when he comes back." Li Xiulian said with a smile: "You haven't eaten, I guess. I'll cook whatever you want."
"No, Mom, I'm not hungry."
"Okay, my mother will prepare delicious food for you tomorrow." Li Xiulian looked at the big and small bags in her son's hand and said quickly: "Oh, is this something I bought in Xiangjiang? There are too many, mother. You take it in."
"It's too heavy, I can just carry it myself."
Soon Jiang Jianguo and Jiang Yuanchao heard the sound and came over, helping Jiang Yulou bring the large and small bags he was carrying into the house.
Obviously the weather in Yanjing in August is extremely hot, but at this time Jiang Yulou doesn't feel hot, only feels extremely warm.
Jiang Yulou entered the yard and found that in the past few days since he had been away, the yard had been cleaned cleanly, and the trees, flowers and plants had been well taken care of. The growth was gratifying and lush, making people forget their worries.
After just one week's trip to Hong Kong, I felt at ease after returning.
Sure enough, it's better to be at home.
Back in the house, Jiang Yulou took out two big bags and said, "Mom, Dad, brother, here are the clothes and shoes I bought for you. Take a look and see if you like them."
"We have clothes and shoes at home, and your dad and I don't need them. Even if we want to buy them, we in Yanjing don't have anything, so we have to go to Xiangjiang to spend such money. I heard from neighbors that things in Xiangjiang are very valuable." Li Xiulian felt distressed. frown.
Jiang Yulou smiled and shook his head: "On the contrary, the clothes in Xiangjiang are much cheaper than here."
"Since it is my son's wish, let's not refuse."
Jiang Jianguo happily accepted his son's kindness and even persuaded his wife.
"You." Li Xiulian sighed, picked up the clothes her son gave her, and looked at them.
The clothes Jiang Yulou chooses for his parents are not trendy styles, but are suitable for the elderly and focus on comfort. The price is also moderate, but the colors and fabrics are much better than domestic ones.
After the old couple saw it, they both liked it very much.
Jiang Yulou pushed a bag of clothes in front of his eldest brother Jiang Yuanchao, "Brother, take a look at it too."
Jiang Yuanchao hesitated for a moment, but still did not refuse. Almost everything he has now is brought by his younger brother, and it seems meaningless to refuse.
After he opened the bag, the first thing that caught his eye was a pair of jeans.
"Are these jeans?"
"Brother, do you know him?"
"Well, I saw a lot of rich young people in Yanjing wearing it, and it's become popular."
“The material of jeans is durable and you can wear them for several years.”
"Thank you, brother." Jiang Yuanchao said seriously.
Jiang Yulou smiled but said nothing.
After dividing the clothes, Jiang Yulou picked up the bag containing the clothes he was going to give away and returned to his house.
The next day, he changed into a white T-shirt, jeans, and a pair of sneakers. I jumped on the spot twice, feeling a long-lost sense of relief.
His outfit would still be timeless even before he traveled through time.
He bought a lot of jeans, and apart from giving them away, he would keep five or six pairs for himself, as well as four pairs of sneakers, enough to last him several years.
The reason why I buy so many is not because I like them very much, but because they are comfortable to wear. This is a habit brought from the previous life, and it is not easy to change.
After changing clothes, he first went to a phone booth in the alley and made two calls, then carried a big bag and rode an electric bicycle out, with his destination being Lao Mo.
When he arrived at Lao Mo and ordered the food, Wei Guoping and Wang Shuo arrived not long after.
The two came together and saw Jiang Yulou as soon as they entered. There was nothing I could do about it. This guy was dressed too fashionably. He was wearing a white T-shirt and jeans. In the entire Yanjing 49 cities, few people were seen dressing like this.
Especially since this guy is tall and a bit handsome, plus he is still young and has a fresh look, how can he not attract attention?
He didn't see the girl at the table next to him, and kept glancing at him, obviously taking a fancy to him.
Wang Shuo greeted him with a smile, and then asked: "Yulu is back, how is Xiangjiang?"
"It's not interesting. It's all the corrupt ideas of the bourgeoisie, that is, there are more high-rise buildings and more cars, and there's nothing special about it." Jiang Yulou curled his lips.
Wei Guoping said with envy: "You are too dissatisfied, that's Xiangjiang!"
"Can you be more ambitious? In a few years, we will be better off than the people in Xiangjiang." Jiang Yulou sounded confident when he spoke, but Wei Guoping did not have this confidence.
After sitting down, Wang Shuo asked like a scoundrel: "Stop talking about this, you went to Xiangjiang and didn't you bring any gifts for your brothers?"
"Yes, you are indispensable."
Jiang Yulou picked up the bag next to him and patted it.
Wei Guoping was very curious, "What are they?"
"Clothes and shoes." Jiang Yulou said calmly.
Wei Guoping opened his mouth and said with slight hesitation: "I heard that prices in Xiangjiang are quite cheap..."
Wang Shuo didn't pay much attention. He took the clothes and shoes and looked at them happily, "Oh, let's not mention it. The fabric of these clothes and pants is really good, much better than the ones in our country."
"Yeah, let me take a look."
After hearing what he said, Wei Guoping quickly took the clothes and shoes given to him, pulling them and breaking them, and he was very happy to test them.
After a while, he sighed: "Don't mention it, the things in Xiangjiang are a bit expensive, but the quality is nothing to say."
"Things are expensive, but wages in Xiangjiang are also high. I think it's the same." Wang Shuo said.
Wei Guoping said longingly: "When will our wages be as high as this?"
hehe!
Jiang Yulou smiled and said nothing. In more than ten years, his salary would have increased a lot, but by then, the one hundred yuan would be spent without even hearing a sound. That's all. The problem is that I can't buy anything yet.
Just say it's annoying.
In the years before he time traveled, not only wages had dropped, but the purchasing power of wages was even worse than in the 1980s.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's get something to eat quickly. I've been to Xiangjiang for a few days. I really miss our restaurant in Yanjing."
Afterwards, the three of them chatted while eating, and Jiang Yulou also paid attention to the progress of Wang Shuo's work.
