Qin Shuangshuang felt that the looks from the car that were moving away made her very uncomfortable, but she didn't care very much.
After all, she didn't think twice about anyone in the army who could be hostile to her, except Chen Zhuzhu.
Yang Tianhe didn't hate her as much as Chen Zhuzhu.
Shen Chenming was the man Chen Zhuzhu had chased. She must have been very angry when she failed to catch him and fell for him.
But she didn't care. Chen Zhuzhu didn't have the ability to chase Shen Chenming. That was because she was incompetent. What did it have to do with her?
The army was quite far from the town, and it took about forty minutes of riding to get there.
The town is not big, just one street, but although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.
There are post and telecommunications offices, supply and marketing cooperatives, credit unions, food stations, grain management offices, and town governments.
A street of almost a hundred meters is packed to the brim. No matter what you want to do, you don't have to go to Haishi. You can do it here.
Shen Chenming and Qin Shuangshuang had clear goals and went to the supply and marketing cooperative as soon as they arrived.
Even though the store is not big, the inside is quite big, almost two hundred square meters.
In the middle of the entrance are various department stores, and on the left is the non-staple food counter. You can buy almost everything you need for daily life, including cigarettes, wine, tea, soy sauce, rapeseed oil, salt, MSG, etc.
On the right are pots and pans and a briquette stove, plus cart tires, bicycle tires and so on.
Anyway, there are a lot of things.
Of course, I only put out a few samples of each product, and when they are sold out, I go to the warehouse to restock.
Shen Chenming and Qin Shuangshuang didn't go anywhere. They went to the place selling pots and pans, picked through and bought a bunch of things.
A briquette stove is essential, so I bought one, a single-hole one. There are only two people at home eating, so there is no need to buy a three-hole one. The kind is prepared for more people at home.
I also bought a cooking pot with a handle, so that it can be easily picked up and plated after cooking. I also bought a pressure cooker, size 24. I didn’t dare to buy a size that was too small, for fear that one pot of rice wouldn’t be enough for a treat.
It’s too troublesome to cook two pots.
Save the trouble by buying a big one and cook it in one pot.
I picked ten plates, ten medium-sized rice bowls, and twenty pairs of chopsticks.
If it's not enough, let them bring their own.
I also bought two teapots for making tea.
After buying the things, the store clerk enthusiastically packed them in sacks and prepared to put them on the back seat of the bicycle and take them back later.
The back seat of the bicycle was so full that Qin Shuangshuang couldn't sit on it, so the two decided to walk back.
We have to walk anyway, so we can't waste a trip. We have to buy some things for the guests, including oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, rice, vegetables and meat.
Bring some tobacco and alcohol, some sugar, and some noodles and rice noodles.
Seeing someone selling fish and shrimp caught in the river at the door, Qin Shuangshuang also bought a basin and packed it in a nylon bag.
The small fish and shrimps are wrapped in flour and deep-fried. They are crispy and delicious and are the best for entertaining guests. I have a refrigerator at home, so I don’t have to worry about it getting damaged.
After buying, the two went to the food station. The meat inside had been sold out, and there were only some pork bones left.
Qin Shuangshuang picked and bought a lot. Bones were cheap and lotus roots were available at this time. When the time came, they would stew a large pot, which would be enough for everyone.
Finally, I bought some winter melons, pumpkins, autumn eggplants, and autumn loofahs, packed them in bags, and carried them all on the back seat of the bicycle.
Shen Chenming looked at the little girl spending money with his mouth curled up. He thought that the girl was always busy at home, reaching for food and opening her mouth, so she didn't know how to plan the necessities of daily life.
Unexpectedly, she is quite smart when it comes to shopping. She specializes in picking out cheap and easy-to-use items. She counts every penny very carefully. At first glance, she is someone who refuses to suffer a loss.
After shopping, the two walked home side by side, Shen Chenming pushing the bicycle.
He is good-looking, and Qin Shuangshuang is not bad either. The two of them are a unique sight when walking on the streets of the town.
It caused a very high return rate.
They didn't care and just walked on by themselves.
Yang Tianhe, who came out of the post office, happened to see this scene and was stunned.
A few days ago, my mother called the army. When she answered the phone, she cursed him all over the place, making him blush and feel ashamed.
He knew that what he did was unethical, hurt the hearts of the Qin family, and failed his grandfather's expectations.
But he knew very well that with his conditions, if he wanted to reach a new level, he would not be able to do it without a backer.
He has no education. The place for further study was given to him or was obtained by Shen Chenming for him. But he failed to pass the exam. What can he do?
When Chen Zhuzhu took the initiative to pursue him, he felt that a God-given opportunity had come and he must seize it. Otherwise, he can only stop at his current position and stand still, not knowing whether it will be his turn to be promoted in the year of the monkey.
My mother is just a rural woman and doesn’t understand his hard work, let alone his ambition to climb up.
If a stepping stone was handed to him, why should he miss it?
The only thing he didn't expect was that after Qin Shuangshuang returned home, all the money and tickets he took from him were returned to his parents.
This was very unexpected to him.
Logically speaking, it was his fault that he and Qin Shuangshuang broke off their engagement, and it was normal for the woman to demand a certain amount of compensation.
She wanted it while in the army, but when she returned home, she returned it intact to her parents.
From this point of view, Qin Shuangshuang is a very reasonable person, not the kind of messy shrew.
When he heard that they had bought a car full of furniture and appliances, Chen Zhuzhu had whispered in his ears many times that they also wanted to get married as soon as possible.
They also need to buy new furniture and appliances, and move next door to where Qin Shuangshuang lives. That row of bungalows is newly built, with complete supporting facilities, including independent bathrooms and kitchens.
He calculated that he was afraid he didn't have enough money on hand, so he sent a telegram back and asked his mother to send him the money and tickets that Qin Shuangshuang took away.
These days are a critical period, so you can't fall out with Chen Zhuzhu because of this matter. Just follow her orders in everything, and you'll be fine once you get married.
Looking at the backs of Qin Shuangshuang and Shen Chenming walking side by side, Yang Tianhe stared blankly for several minutes.
Shen Chenming is his immediate boss, and his family's conditions should be very good, otherwise he wouldn't have so much money. In addition, he has been performing tasks abroad over the years and has received relatively large bonuses.
It is not surprising at all to be able to afford the three major items of TV, refrigerator and washing machine.
Unlike him, most of his jobs in these years were clerical jobs, and he lived on his salary. He also had to send some money home from time to time to support his younger brother's education.
After deducting all the miscellaneous fees, there is nothing left.
Chen Zhuzhu was clamoring to compare Qin Shuangshuang to others, and clamoring to buy something, which made him dizzy.
If he married Qin Shuangshuang, would she clamor for this or that?
Certainly not.
They will only hold weddings according to the customs of their hometown. It would be nice to buy a bicycle. They want three major electrical appliances, but they don't have any doors.
Shen Chenming felt eyes following him like a shadow. He turned around suddenly and saw Yang Tianhe hiding in the post office in panic.
Seeing him suddenly turning around, Qin Shuangshuang turned around and said, "What are you looking at?"
