[Military Marriage, Sweet Pampering, 1980s, Marriage Before Love, Transmigration]
Wen Jiu opened her eyes to find herself pressed against the paper-thin male supporting character. She then re...
Chapter 53: I advise you not to meddle in other people’s business!
"Come back in the evening and have dinner at my house. I will buy your favorite duck in soy sauce." After saying this, Wen Jiu took Lu Qingqing away.
The original owner of the book had a pampered script, but she was a jerk, and those who pampered her all ended up with a bad ending.
All of Wen Chuji's money was spent by her. All the girls introduced to him by others were bullied and ran away by her using various means. She was afraid that Wen Chuji would no longer favor her after getting married. As a result, Wen Chuji was 27 years old and still unmarried, and he probably already had several children of the same age.
She has never enjoyed the warmth of a family, and this identity may be her compensation. She will enjoy their love, but she will not let them go to their original ending.
Wen Chuji looked at her leaving back with a faint smile on his lips.
His sister has finally grown up.
In the past, every time she saw him, she either asked him to give her money to buy clothes and other things, or pestered him to take her out to play, or she got into trouble and needed him to clean up the mess, and she would take away any money in his pocket no matter how much.
But now she refuses it even when he offers it to her, and even asks her to buy him some duck with sauce, which is really good.
Lu Qingqing and Wen Jiu were walking on the street. This time she was much more confident than the previous two days. The previous two days, when people looked at her on the street, she lowered her head, wishing she could be invisible, as if she was very ashamed.
But today she was completely different.
Even though she was being seen, she still did what she was supposed to do, without being influenced by others at all.
Lu Qingqing thought for a moment and asked, "Sister-in-law, what should we buy first?"
I have a lot of things to buy today.
Wen Jiu replied: "Let's buy some cloth first!"
The fabric is light and convenient to carry around. You can’t just buy food and run with it!
When she bought clothes for Lu Qingqing the day before yesterday, she had basically gone around the town, so buying fabrics was not difficult. She just went straight to the stores she remembered, and after going to two stores she bought all the fabrics and materials she needed.
It cost twenty dollars in total.
Most of the cloth and materials she bought today were intended for making clothes for her family.
So the price is more expensive.
After buying the wine, I prepared to go buy vegetables. It is more convenient to buy vegetables at the market, there are more varieties and you can compare prices.
The markets in the 1980s were not much different from the markets today. Both sides of the street were lined with vendors pushing carts, carrying baskets, or placing vegetables on the ground. The various shouts were particularly loud and it was very lively.
There were many people buying vegetables at the market in the morning, and Wen Jiu was afraid of being swept away, so he pulled Lu Qingqing with him.
There were seasonal vegetables in the family garden, so she didn't need to buy too many vegetables. She mainly bought some meat and bones. But even so, she had no place to warm the wine in the end.
There were no plastic bags in those days, so she used the cloth bag with a bracelet on it to carry things.
Wenjiu and Lu Qingqing looked at each other.
There are still many things I haven’t bought yet!
Lu Qingqing suggested, "Sister-in-law, why don't we buy a backpack? We don't have one at home, and it can be used when buying things in the future."
Wen Jiu didn't understand, "Where can I buy it?"
I didn't see who was selling the backpack.
Lu Qingqing smiled slyly and pointed to the street behind her where people were buying vegetables. "Here! Many of them carry vegetables in baskets. If we want to buy some, there will definitely be someone selling them."
You can also buy cheap ones!
Wen Jiu raised his thumbs up and said, "Great! Then you stay here and watch the things while I go buy them. It's inconvenient to carry things around."
With the backpack, they instantly had a place to put the vegetables in their arms.
To buy grain and oil, you have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative.
And you need a ticket.
Before the reform and opening up, you needed a ticket to buy everything, but after the reform and opening up, the state no longer cared about anything except grain and oil, because grain was the foundation for people to live a peaceful life.
The country had just opened up, and if the price of food was driven up by someone with ulterior motives, it would easily cause chaos.
In the supply and marketing cooperative where you buy grain, the grain is packed in specially made large cabinets, and the oil is packed in large oil barrels with oil pipes inside, so anyone who wants to buy oil can draw oil at any time, which is very convenient.
The grain was weighed on a large scale, which could easily cheat people out of two taels of grain if used outside. However, Wen Jiusi had no worries at all in the supply and marketing cooperative.
Everyone here is paid by the government, so it will not benefit them if they cheat on the food.
Watching the money flowing out, Wenjiu felt like his heart was bleeding.
It's easy to spend money but hard to make money!
"Sister-in-law, have we bought everything?" Lu Qingqing asked while carrying a backpack on her back. The cloth and materials for making clothes, vegetables, meat, grain and oil, they had already bought everything, so there shouldn't be anything missing.
Wenjiu shook his head. "Not yet. Just wait here for me! There is shade from the trees. I will bring back the remaining things."
And she hasn’t bought her brother’s duck with sauce yet!
"Okay, then you go early and come back early."
There aren't many shops selling cooked food on the street, because it's risky to sell cooked food in the summer as it's easy for it to go bad. I searched for a long time before I found one, and was very lucky to buy the last soy sauce duck.
She was walking back happily when suddenly someone in the alley next to her shouted, "Catch a thief!"
"Catch the thief!"
"Help! Catch the thief! He stole my money..."
The person whose things were stolen was an old woman. She couldn't run as her legs were broken, so she sat on the ground crying with snot and tears all over her face.
This place is quite remote and there weren't many people around. The old woman called for a long time but no one came to help.
Wenjiu hated to see this scene, so he chased the thief for two blocks with the duck in his hand, and finally blocked the thief in a dead end.
The thief saw that he had no way to escape, so he turned around and glared at Wenjiu fiercely, pointing the knife at her.
"I advise you to mind your own business!"
"Otherwise I'll stab you to death!"
Although the original owner was in good physical condition, she was still exhausted from warming the wine because the weather was too hot. She thought about the soy sauce duck she had bought with great difficulty, which was almost thrown away because of this idiot.
She became even angrier.
"Hurry up and return the old woman's money!"
"Give it back to your mother, you stinky bitch!"
"How dare you scold me!" Wen Jiuqi laughed, hung the sauced duck on the tree next to him, rolled up his sleeves and rushed over.
"If I don't beat you today so hard that even your own mother won't recognize you, I won't have the last name Wen!"
The thief relied on the knife in his hand and didn't pay any attention to the warming wine. However, he didn't pay any attention to the warming wine just by waving it twice. He was soon knocked down, stepped on, and made to kiss the hot ground with his mouth.
"Who bitch? Huh?"
"Wuwuwu..." The thief was unable to speak, his lips were almost burned.
"You have hands and feet, but you are a thief. Do you want me to cut off your hands and feet? Then you can find a broken bowl to beg?"
“Woo woo woo…”
"Oh, you, my Lord!"
"If I catch you stealing anything again, I'll knock your head off!"
Wenjiu picked up the thief, beat him until his face was bruised and swollen, and he swore that he would never be a thief again in his life, and then took him to the police station.
This kind of bad embryo!
We must hand this over to the police for education!
