Chapter 148 Return Trip
Even if Gu Hansong cared about the Meng family's business, he couldn't have made a special trip to bring sample clothes to Meng Changli.
So, it was Meng Shulan who lied.
The clothes were bought by Gu Hansong specially for Meng Shulan. It was a complete set, including a coat, pants, and a shirt with a bow tie.
Gu Hansong didn't want to keep the clothes he brought back from Hong Kong City at the bottom of the box, so he took them out just now.
This is his intention, Meng Shulan will definitely accept it.
But I didn’t know how to tell my sister, so after thinking about it, I came up with this excuse.
This time when they came to Nancheng, the two sisters did everything together. Meng Shulan had no chance to buy things alone outside. It was impossible for her to buy them by herself, so she could only tell such a lie.
Meng Shulan was confident that her sister would just take a good look at the clothes and eventually wear them herself.
In short, as long as the goal is achieved.
Meng Changli placed the clothes on the bed and was surprised after looking at them carefully.
"Shulan, did Gu Hansong really just buy this casually? This style and material feel too high-end."
"Yeah?"
Meng Shulan put down the basin and came over.
Previously, she had put all the things in the bag and she didn't look at them carefully.
Now when I looked at it, my mouth opened unconsciously.
A lake blue cashmere coat, a beige polka-dot shirt with a big bow, and apricot trousers.
Where did he buy this suit?
It doesn't feel like something from this era. Even in Hong Kong, a set of clothes like this would only be available in some specific places.
this……
It's expensive, right? Meng Shulan knew that Gu Hansong was very generous.
In the previous life, he always came to the hospital to see me empty-handed.
It’s okay to bring food and daily necessities, but sometimes they also bring out-of-print books, limited editions or collectibles.
At that time, Meng Shulan didn't have much experience and didn't know anything at the beginning.
Once, Song Huailing, who was already the museum director, came to see her and pointed to a vase on her bedside table, saying that it was a foreign collection that was a thousand years old.
Meng Shulan really didn't realize that, although she worked in a cultural center, the knowledge she was exposed to was limited to domestic affairs. The foreign area was not her responsibility, so she didn't know much about it.
When Gu Hansong sent flowers, he also brought this vase. She felt that the thing was good, with an exquisite and special shape. She thought it was made of colored glass, but who knew it was jade.
In his previous life, he was successful and famous, so it was nothing for him to give himself a collection. He had reached that level of ability.
But now, his career has just started!
Is it possible to spend so much money? "Shulan, this dress looks really good, try it on and show it to me."
Meng Changli stared at the clothes with shining eyes.
I can't believe that something I just bought can have such level and quality.
Look at this belt, the cut of the clothes and the stitching when it was made, it doesn't look like something made on an assembly line at all.
The ones who can make something like this either have more advanced new machines or are experienced old tailors with skills.
Meng Changli felt that she could not reach this level, not only in terms of production, but also in terms of styles, which she had never seen before.
Meng Shulan quickly changed her clothes. The weather here was much warmer than over there, and a shirt and a thin cashmere jacket were just right for her at the moment.
Gu Hansong should have considered it carefully when buying it, as this set of clothes can be worn immediately now.
Looking at her sister who had changed so much, Meng Changli was stunned. "This is too suitable. It looks like I bought it for you."
Meng Shulan's smile froze, and she said guiltily, "Sister, what are you talking about? Gu Hansong said it was a sample for your reference."
Meng Changli laughed, "Yes, I must find a chance to thank him. This dress is really nice, but it's a pity that the material is too hard to find, and it's definitely not cheap. I guess it can't be made for the time being, so I can only look at it. I can refer to the style, I'll remember it in my mind and draw it in a notebook later.
Okay, Shulan, this suit is yours."
Meng Shulan even pretended to ask, "Sister, don't you want to pick one?"
Meng Changli clicked her tongue, "I'm already a mother of two kids, why should I wear such pretty clothes? These clothes are for you older girls."
Why can't I dress up if I have two babies? Even if I'm in my seventies or eighties, I can still look glamorous as long as I have a fashionable heart.
But this outfit...
Meng Shulan naturally had no choice but to endure it without saying a word.
Meng Changli: "How much is it? Have you given it to them?"
Meng Shulan said vaguely: "I gave it to you."
…
Early the next morning, the four of them packed their luggage, checked out of the hotel, and prepared to go to the train station to buy tickets back home.
Yesterday afternoon, Jiang Jun found a small truck outside and came this morning to transport the cloth, and the four people could also go along with the truck.
The journey took more than three hours, and it was already past nine o'clock when we arrived at the train station.
A few people went to handle the freight first, and then Gu Hansong arranged the two sisters to a nearby guesthouse and let them have a rest first, as he and Jiang Jun still had some things to do.
The return bus doesn't arrive until around 5pm. He will go buy the ticket later and they just need to wait in the guesthouse.
In fact, Meng Changli felt that there was no need to spend the money. They could just find a place to stay near the train station. But when she thought about having to endure another twenty hours before returning, she followed the arrangement.
At noon, Gu Hansong and Jiang Jun were not there, so the two sisters ate something casually near the guesthouse and then took a nap.
Around four o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Jun came to pick them up. When they arrived at the train station, Gu Hansong had already bought the tickets, and they were sleeper berths.
Meng Changli: "Aren't sleeper berths only available to those with work permits? Gu Hansong, you are amazing, how did you buy one?"
Not to mention Meng Changli, even Meng Shulan was a little surprised.
Where did he find someone to get him sleeper tickets? And four of them?
Gu Hansong: "Find a friend for help."
Friends again! This is only his second time here, how come he can meet so many talented friends?
The four of them sat in the waiting room for a while and soon got on the bus.
The return trip was a sleeper ticket, which allowed me to sit or lie down, and was much more comfortable than the previous hard seat.
People who can sit in the sleeper berths are different in terms of their status. Everyone is polite, the environment and atmosphere are better, and they all look like cultured people.
When the tickets were being distributed downstairs earlier, Gu Hansong, not sure if it was intentional or not, specifically allocated a position for him and Meng Shulan to get off the bed.
It’s not that it’s convenient and comfortable to get out of bed, but that the two of them can be closer and can see each other by turning sideways, while Meng Changli and Jiang Jun who are sleeping on the middle and upper bunks cannot notice it.
When putting things away, Meng Shulan noticed this detail and quietly went to see Gu Hansong who was making the bed opposite.
The latter acted as if nothing had happened and just sat there doing his own thing, looking as if he hadn't noticed at all.
This person...
Sometimes he's quite stuffy.
