Jiang County is more than two hours' drive from downtown Jiangcheng.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the family arrived at the department store.

What catches your eye is a seven-story Soviet-style building with a beige exterior wall and ten Roman columns holding up a gilded slogan "Develop the Economy and Ensure Supply", which stands out among the surrounding buildings.

“How impressive.”

The two kids raised their heads and looked up from below. They felt that the roof of the building was about to break through the clouds.

Jiang Ningning had seen many skyscrapers in her later life, so this was nothing. The elevators in the New World Daimaru Department Store in Shanghai could actually turn.

It happened to be a weekend today, so many people came to the department store to shop.

The four members of their family are all very good-looking, with handsome men and beautiful women, and the twins, a boy and a girl, are so cute. Especially since Huo Donglin was wearing a crisp green military uniform, he looked very impressive.

Immediately attracted countless sidelong glances.

After these days, Manman and Xiaxia, the two little girls, have become comfortable facing all kinds of stares.

But when my shoes stepped on the bright and clean terrazzo floor in the mall, I couldn't help feeling inferior.

This has something to do with the environment I used to live in. I had to stay in the garbage dump and rummage through toothpaste tubes and iron sheets for hundreds of days and nights.

The garbage dump was just outside my comfort zone, but I was always afraid of embarrassing my mother if I suddenly set foot in such a magnificent place.

Yu and the others huddled close to Jiang Ningning, their big eyes full of dependence on her.

The first floor of the mall is full of daily necessities, tobacco and alcohol, with rows of glass counters with merchandise displayed inside. The Shanghai watch shone with a cold metallic luster on the velvet tray, and bicycle bells were strung together to form a crystal curtain.

Sales clerks wearing navy blue uniforms and revolutionary hairstyles stood inside each counter, looking either arrogant or enthusiastic.

The line at the checkout counter formed a long dragon. Young men were counting the Double Happiness coins on the enamel basin. Housewives were sniffing the fragrance of the iron box of Friendship Cream. An old country man in a patched cotton-padded jacket was looking up at the plaster five-pointed star relief on the ceiling with his neck bent into a question mark.

When they entered the door, Jiang Ningning was keenly aware of the little ones' sensitive and inferior emotions, but she said nothing. She held their hands gently and firmly, and led them directly to the clothing area.

The average temperature in Jiangcheng in winter is about 15-22℃, with a large temperature difference between morning and evening, and the lowest temperature is around 8℃.

After the typhoon, the weather is getting hotter day by day, so I have to buy thin spring and autumn clothes.

The third floor specializes in clothing.

There are different brands and fabrics with a very complete range of categories, including boys' and girls' clothing, which is incomparable to the supply and marketing cooperatives in the county.

"Let mom pick it first!" Xia Xia said very sensibly.

And she had a feeling that her mother would look prettier than her other aunts in her new clothes!

Manman pointed to the third counter and said excitedly, "Mom, try on that light yellow braid."

Jiang Ningning couldn't persuade the two little girls, so she took them up to the store and asked the salesperson to take down the skirt her son pointed to. She also picked out two Dacron shirts and a pair of black trousers.

The mother and her two children were wearing ill-fitting cotton jackets, but they were clean and tidy, with no dirt even under their nails.

The salesperson's eyes were shining.

There's no other reason, this lesbian is so iconic, like a movie star in a magazine. His cold white skin seemed to glow under the light, and he stood in front of the counter with his curved eyebrows, so dazzling that I couldn't take my eyes off him.

Unfortunately, the flower has already been taken away.

The officer's handsome face was stern, his hands hung at his sides, and even his hair was as hard as iron.

His cold and stern attitude scared others away from approaching.

The salesperson not only readily found the three sets of clothes that Jiang Ningning specified, but also took out two extra sets of the most popular styles.

"It's okay if you don't buy the others. I just think they will look really good on you."

Her tone was particularly sincere, and the items she held were all the right size for Jiang Ningning.

Jiang Ningning couldn't bear to reject her feelings for him: "Okay, I'll try them all."

She took her clothes and went in to change.

Huo Donglin was waiting outside with the children. In the past, he would never waste time on such meaningless things, but now he was happy to do it and was quite patient.

It seemed that as long as he was with Jiang Ningning and the children, even breathing became meaningful.

A pair of dark eyes stared straight at the fitting room, his heart was so nervous that it was covered with sweat.

It was a rare occasion that Manman didn't tease him, because he stretched his neck and waited expectantly for his mother to finish trying on clothes.

Jiang Ningning came out soon after changing.

The top two buttons of the white shirt were unbuttoned, and it was neatly tucked into black trousers, revealing a thin waist.

The smallest size of pants still leaves a fist full of space. Although she is skinny, she has a very good figure.

Her breasts were high, her buttocks were round, and her slender waist seemed to be completely grasped by a big hand.

It would be better if you match it with a pair of leather shoes.

"Does it look good?" Jiang Ningning raised her watery autumn eyes and looked over, her eyes clear and innocent.

She is innocent and yet charming.

Many people in the mall were dazzled.

Huo Donglin's gaze stayed on her for a long time, his dark eyes gradually darkened, "Beautiful!"

The dry words were quickly drowned out by the son who was full of flattery, "Mom, you are the most beautiful woman in the world. This dress is tailor-made for you. With such a fairy mother, I am the happiest child in the world."

Xia Xia ran forward and pulled Jiang Ningning to the fitting room, "Hide."

My mother is so beautiful that she has to be hidden to prevent her from being snatched away by bad guys.

Jiang Ningning took the opportunity to replace Bragi.

A shirt paired with trousers will always make you look smart and professional.

But the light yellow braid makes her skin look even more tender, as if she could squeeze out water from tofu, and her temperament is gentle and soft.

It is no exaggeration to say that she looks like an 18-year-old girl, and you can't tell that she is the mother of two children at all.

The last two outfits are average, but Jiang Ningning has a good figure and pretty looks, so she can definitely carry them off.

The fabric is comfortable to wear and will not cause itching.

The price is also not cheap. Just this pair of blue overalls I just tried on and a pink Dacron shirt cost 15 yuan.

If you add the other three sets of clothes and underwear, it would be over a hundred.

Jiang Ningning was a little hesitant.

"purchase!"

Huo Donglin, who had been silent nearby, took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket and placed them on the counter.

"I want them all. Comrade, please pack them for me. My wife can just wear the one she's wearing."

The salesperson was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. Although this military comrade had a stern face and was a little scary, she didn't expect that he actually loved his wife.

You don't have to queue up for clothes, just pay at the counter.

The salesperson folded it up neatly, put it in a plastic bag, and handed it to Huo Donglin, "You can get your clothes tailored for free at the corner of the stairs on the third floor. If you feel it doesn't fit, you can take it in for alterations and pick it up on the same day."

The family left the women's clothing counter, and soon a woman came over with her child.

Her face was also delicate and beautiful, but it was obvious that she had done a lot of farm work in the countryside, and her skin was a healthy wheat color.

The hands were rough and dry, with calluses all over the palms.

The salesperson thought of the clothes Jiang Ningning had just worn, and felt that the two had similar figures, so he directly recommended: "Comrade, take a look at these clothes..."
