When Jiang Sui learned that she was going to town, he called her back to the bedroom and took out a book from a small cupboard nearby. There was a stack of banknotes inside the book.

Mixed in this large stack of banknotes were some food coupons, cloth coupons, and meat coupons.

"I don't need any of that."

Before Jiang Sui could open his mouth, Xiang Baiwei shook her head to reject him.

"Take it, let's go to town and buy something you like. Your hair is so black and shiny, it's a pity to just put it up like this. You should buy some beautiful accessories to wear."

Jiang Sui took out ten yuan and said, "Use this money first, and keep the rest at home for emergency use."

Xiang Baiwei didn't want to take his money.

"You can keep it for yourself. I'm going with Liu Mei, so I don't need the money. Now I'm leaving. Liu Mei is still waiting for me outside. I'm sorry to keep her waiting too long."

After she finished speaking, she hurried out of the bedroom and came to Liu Mei, who was obviously waiting impatiently in the yard: "Let's go, I've finished talking, let's go to town quickly, I'm in a hurry to come back at noon."

Liu Mei looked back at Jiang Sui who had not come out of the main hall, followed Xiang Baiwei out of the yard, and began to inquire inconspicuously: "What were you two talking about just now? Why did you talk for so long? Is it because Jiang Sui was reluctant to let you go out?"

Liu Mei looked at Bai Wei anxiously, wanting to know what Jiang Sui had said to her in the room, and deliberately kept it a secret: "It's obvious what a young newlywed couple would say."

Liu Mei felt as if her heart was being stabbed by a knife when she heard her extremely ambiguous tone.

But no matter what she said, Xiang Baiwei refused to tell the truth.

In the end, Liu Mei's heart twisted, and she pretended not to control her strength and twisted towards Bai Wei: "Silly girl, we have such a good relationship, and you are still keeping it a secret from me."

Xiang Baiwei also twisted back with superb acting skills: "You are the annoying one. I have to explain to you what I say to my man in private! Why are you so overbearing? You are the stupid girl."

Liu Mei, who didn't get any advantage, looked pale and had frighteningly gloomy eyes from an angle where Bai Wei couldn't see.

There was no need to look back, Xiang Baiwei could feel how jealous Liu Mei was right now.

But the more uncomfortable Liu Mei felt, the happier Xiang Baiwei felt.

You deserve it. You make a fool of me. I won't do what you want.

You'll be pissed off.

There will be many more opportunities to stimulate you in the future. Now is just the beginning. I will let you know how stupid it is to think about other people's men.

After the two walked for a distance, they happened to meet a villager from the neighboring village who was going to the town to exchange eggs. The villager was some relative of Xiang Baiwei. Xiang Baiwei sweetly called him "Fourth Uncle" several times, and the other party was very enthusiastic and invited them to sit on his mule cart together.

Thanks to this mule cart, Xiang Baiwei and Liu Mei arrived in the town in just one hour.

After getting off the bus, Xiang Baiwei was pulled by Liu Mei to the supply and marketing cooperative.

As soon as they entered the door, Liu Mei took her to the east side, where daily necessities that girls liked were sold.

Here we have everything that girls love, including flowered hairbands and handkerchiefs.

"Weiwei, did you see those two headscarves? Aren't they very fashionable? They must look great on you."

Liu Mei pointed at two overly fancy headscarves on the shelf at the back.

Xiang Baiwei was very familiar with that headscarf. She was tricked by Liu Mei into buying those two headscarves back then.

"It's too fancy. I don't like it. If you like it, you can wear it yourself," Xiang Baiwei said, and then she came to the stationery area and pointed at the notebooks and pencils at the back. "I want the cheapest two."

She has been studying with Jiang Sui these days and using his stationery.

It is always embarrassing to use other people's things for free, so Xiang Baiwei decided to buy some stationery to please him. It happened that she saw that Jiang Sui's pencils were so used that they could no longer be used.

Liu Mei followed and looked at the pencil and paper in her hand with a strange look: "Could this be bought for Jiang Sui?"

"Yes, I'm his girlfriend, so of course I have to buy him what he needs." Xiang Baiwei looked at Liu Mei proudly, "You don't understand this feeling now, but you will understand it when you find a partner and get married in the future."

Liu Mei laughed: "It's almost done. The tailor is here today. I'll go over and help you get some floral fabric to make a dress. Your dress is exactly the same as other peasant women's. It doesn't look good at all."

Xiang Baiwei lowered her head and glanced at her body: "Is there? This dress was made for me by my mother before I got married. When I put it on this morning, Jiang Sui praised me for how good it looked."

Seeing that she kept emphasizing how well she and Jiang Sui were doing, Liu Mei felt extremely upset.

Why are you so arrogant? You used dishonorable means to snatch Jiang Sui away. Sooner or later, I will make you cry.

Does the toad still dream of staying with the white swan forever? Let me teach you to face the reality as soon as possible!

Seeing that Xiang Baiwei refused to buy clothes, Liu Mei was not discouraged. She took her to the skin care products counter and commented on Xiang Baiwei's hands: "Look at your hands, they are so rough. They hurt when I hold them. Hurry up and buy some ointment, otherwise you will age early."

Liu Mei pointed at the lipsticks and rouges behind the counter and said, "Girls in the city all know how to put on makeup. Since you married a boy from the city, you have to learn how to put on makeup. Buy some rouge. I think the dark red one is pretty good. You have a fair complexion, and it will set off your complexion well."

Xiang Baiwei's face certainly couldn't be as white as snow as she did farm work in the countryside and was exposed to the sun every day.

It can even be said to be more bronze in color.

This is all due to sun exposure. In her previous life, after she moved to the city, she saw less sunlight and her face gradually regained its fair color.

But now, with her bronze face and dark red rouge, she looks ugly no matter how you think about it.

Liu Mei really went to great lengths to embarrass herself.

"I don't like rouge, and it's so expensive. With that money, I could buy more soy sauce and vinegar."

Xiang Baiwei shook her head again to refuse.

She had big plans in mind, and didn't want to spend her own money on those messy things just to make Liu Mei uncomfortable.

Besides, she didn't need rouge, lipstick, etc. In the past, she would be bewitched by Liu Mei and buy those messy clothes and skin care products to please Jiang Sui.

But she doesn't need it now.

Jiang Sui is such a taciturn guy that it's not worth it to try to please him.

"Why do you keep pushing me to buy things?"

Xiang Baiwei turned to look at Liu Mei who was chattering non-stop and trying to persuade her to buy rouge, "Didn't you say you wanted to go shopping on the street? I see you didn't buy anything, why did you let me buy only?"

"I thought I would buy it with you first, and then I would buy it for myself." Liu Mei was afraid that she would discover her purpose, so she hurriedly explained.
