Chapter 366: A sweet smile, a beautiful person
Gu Xiaoxi smiled and said, "It's not that I don't recommend it, but of course when shopping, you should buy what you need and like first. If the budget is sufficient, you can buy some other things. The weather is cold now, and cashmere sweaters are cold-resistant and warm, so you can wear them now. The embroidery in our country is very exquisite, and cheongsams are elegant and generous. Wearing them in warmer weather will show your temperament and characteristics..."
As she spoke, she took them to a place selling embroidered cheongsams.
Because she saw a gorgeous embroidered wedding dress for the bride on display, she also focused on explaining Chinese weddings and Chinese red to the wives of her companions.
She described it so beautifully and solemnly that a lady bought it on the spot for a large sum of money and added a set of headdresses, saying that she was giving it to her daughter.
Afterwards, Gu Xiaoxi highlighted the exquisite embroidered handkerchiefs and silk scarves, which are perfect gifts.
She even demonstrated how to use and tie various scarves.
She is good-looking. With a silk scarf tied around her neck and a sweet smile, she looks even more beautiful.
Several ladies came to buy again.
Passing by a counter selling Toshiba televisions, Gu Xiaoxi couldn't help but take a few more glances.
The Friendship Store really has everything!
When Mrs. Jones saw her stop, she thought she was going to introduce the TV to them, but after waiting for a while, she saw Gu Xiaoxi leading them away again.
A lady asked with a smile: "Why didn't Miss Gu introduce that TV to us?"
Gu Xiaoxi smiled and said, "That TV is an imported product, not a Chinese product. Besides, I think you must have this kind of home appliance at home. I only looked at it a few more times because I don't have one at home. If there were no restrictions on purchases, I would like to buy one for my grandparents."
Seeing her honesty, Mrs. Jones couldn't help but say, "If you like, I can buy it for you."
Gu Xiaoxi shook his head. "This is too precious. If possible, please buy it for me and I will give you the money later."
Mrs. Jones smiled and said, "How about I give you a TV and you give me a few bottles of scar cream?
Gu Xiaoxi smiled and nodded, "I have something better for you than scar cream."
"That's great, it's a deal!" Mrs. Jones was very happy and immediately placed an order for the Toshiba TV that Gu Xiaoxi wanted.
The salesperson who witnessed this scene was extremely jealous.
After shopping at the Friendship Store until one o'clock, Gu Xiaoxi left with a few ladies who had returned with great purchases.
Because Mrs. Jones and her family were staying at the Peace Hotel, Gu Xiaoxi also got off the bus here.
She was originally worried about how to move the TV back home, and then she saw Lu Jiansen.
She greeted Mrs. Jones and ran towards Lu Jiansen.
"I asked Mrs. Jones to help me buy a TV. You can bring it back whenever it's convenient for you. Let grandpa and grandma take it back to Kyoto tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll bring it back in the evening. Have you eaten yet? How about we eat together?"
"No, Mrs. Jones invited me to lunch with them. I'm their interpreter for the day."
"Okay." Lu Jiansen already knew in the morning that his little girl had become the translator for several foreign guests, so he didn't ask any more questions and moved the TV to his car first.
Gu Xiaoxi also followed.
When no one was around, she got out of the car, took out an exquisite little bamboo basket with a lid from the space, put twelve beautiful red apples in it, and then took out four boxes of calming incense.
"I'll be here this afternoon, in the same room as last night. If you come back early in the afternoon, come find me and we'll go back together." Lu Jiansen said softly.
"Yeah. Got it."
After parting with Lu Jiansen, she took her gift to Mrs. Jones's room and explained to her the effect of the calming incense.
Mrs. Jones found it curious and ordered it immediately.
But the effect of this was that she relaxed and didn't want to go to the restaurant for dinner.
It was not until several ladies came to call her that everyone went to eat.
After lunch, Mrs. Jones wanted to take a nap, so she made an appointment with Gu Xiaoxi for afternoon tea at four o'clock.
Gu Xiaoxi thought that her grandparents also wanted to go shopping at the Friendship Store, so she went to find Lu Jiansen and asked him to take her back to Pingyuan Street.
As luck would have it, when the two of them arrived at the door of the house, their grandparents were just going out.
So they put the TV down and drove everyone to the Friendship Store.
Because Gu Xiaoxi had just been here in the morning, the salesperson here was particularly enthusiastic and friendly to her.
Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu were very happy watching this.
After accompanying the family for half an hour, Gu Xiaoxi and Lu Jiansen left first.
Wei Mingying was unable to walk as she looked at the embroidery and cheongsams. She wanted to buy everything, and she wanted to buy them all for Xiaoxi.
Grandma Lu was in a similar mood. Every time she picked something, she would say, "This will look great on Xiaoxi!"
"This brook will love it!"
"Buy some for Xiaoxi, too..."
"This watch is also very nice. Xiaoxi has been married to Xiaosen for such a long time, and we have never bought these things. Now let's make up for it..."
So, in the end, most of the things they bought were for Gu Xiaoxi.
Meanwhile, at the Peace Hotel, Mrs. Jones had an exceptionally sound sleep, so much so that during afternoon tea she repeatedly praised Gu Xiaoxi.
After afternoon tea, Gu Xiaoxi accompanied Mrs. Jones to an invitational dinner hosted by the Chinese side and was busy until ten o'clock in the evening before she met Lu Jiansen.
"If we go back now, will grandpa and grandma be asleep?"
Lu Jiansen smiled and nodded slightly, "It's time to go to bed. We can just go back early tomorrow morning."
"Yeah." Gu Xiaoxi didn't bother to think about it. He washed up and prepared to go to bed.
But Lu Jiansen was also very good at making good use of his time. He took a two or three minute bath and then took the pretty and attractive little girl on the bed into his arms.
…
Six o'clock in the morning.
Gu Xiaoxi prepared a bag of breakfast and two bags of food for the car, and returned to Pingyuan Street with Lu Jiansen.
When they got home, everyone was already awake and the luggage had been placed in the yard.
Wei Mingying took Gu Xiaoxi's hand and said, "Xiaoxi, the things in the house that we didn't take away were bought by your aunt and me, as well as your grandpa and grandma. You can take your time to pack them up later."
"You and Xiao Sen are busy with work, so you should take good care of yourselves. Come back when you have a family leave. I am fully recovered now, so you don't have to worry too much..."
Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu kept sounding the alarm for their grandson.
"Xiao Sen, you have to take good care of Xiao Xi. When you are not on a mission, you should spend more time with her and don't let her get hurt..."
Lu Jianlin didn't want to interrupt at this time, so he just quietly distributed breakfast to everyone.
After everyone finished breakfast, Yan Xueqi also came over.
After talking for a while, we prepared to leave for the station.
Because there were so many things and the car couldn't accommodate many people, Gu Xiaoxi could only send everyone to the door and say goodbye.
