Tian Tian took a fancy to a camel-colored cashmere coat, took it off and tried it on. She found that the size was perfect and the style was particularly nice, which was more suitable for a petite person like her.
Tian Tian was a little tempted. She flipped over the tag and took a look, then immediately handed the clothes back to the salesperson.
Excuse me, she can't afford it.
This dress costs one thousand yuan. Not only can she not afford it now, she couldn't even afford it in her previous life.
Zhou Yang reluctantly withdrew her gaze from the dress. She had just seen that Tian Tian looked very good in the dress and actually wanted to buy one for herself. However, when she heard the price of one thousand yuan, she immediately gave up the idea. Although her family was well-off, it was not so good as this.
The two of them went shopping in the women's clothing mall again, and finally Zhou Yang bought a women's shirt for more than two hundred dollars.
Tian Tian, with empty hands, pulled Zhou Yang towards the men's clothing section.
The clothes on the men's side are more monotonous than those on the women's side, mostly four-piece suits and coats.
Tian Tian was dazzled by the selection among the pile of suits. These suits looked so similar that except for some slightly different details, you couldn't tell any difference at a glance.
Tian Tian looked and touched all the way, and finally picked out a dark blue suit. This was the only one with the stiffest style, the most comfortable fabric, and the price was also suitable. It was the type that Tian Tian could afford if she gritted her teeth.
Finally I packed up the clothes and paid the bill. The total cost of the whole set of clothes was four hundred and thirty.
After Tian Tian paid the money, she felt very sad in her heart. It turned out that there would always be rich people. Even in such a difficult time now, there were still thousands of clothes to sell.
The money her family spent on building a house was not even as expensive as this set of clothes.
The shirt Zhou Yang bought cost about 200 yuan. The clothes bought by both of them were quite expensive. After carefully packing the clothes, the two of them rushed back to the machinery factory without stopping.
They came out a little late this afternoon and spent quite some time shopping. It's already around four o'clock.
Tian Tian had to hurry back to have dinner with Gu Zhao, so time was running out.
After arriving at the machinery factory, Zhou Yang reluctantly said goodbye to Tian Tian and agreed to go out and play together in the future.
The experience of going shopping with Tian Tian today was so pleasant. When she went shopping with her classmates before, her classmates would always refuse her. If she didn't go out, they would always nag in her ear that it was unnecessary to buy such expensive things. Over time, Zhou Yang was no longer willing to go out with them, and had a resistance to going out with her classmates.
But this never happens when I go out with Tian Tian.
Tian Tian would never say such discouraging words in her ear, and would even help her to see if the dress looked good on her. The material was not very comfortable, and she could buy more comfortable material at the same price. She liked to go out with Tian Tian.
Zhou Yang herself is not a fool, but this thing is too expensive and she really can't afford it. She will definitely not pay for it. Since he bought it, it means that this thing is within his ability, so she doesn't need someone to persuade her that she can't spend so much money, she should spend less and be more frugal. She just needs someone to help her choose things and not spoil her fun.
In other words, the experience of shopping with Tian Tian was very pleasant. Zhou Yang couldn't wait to make an appointment with Tian Tian next time. She also saw small leather shoes in the department store. The styles were quite nice, much better than those in the supply and marketing cooperative. She also wanted to buy two pairs of small white shoes.
Tian Tian didn’t know what Zhou Yang was thinking, she just agreed because Zhou Yang asked her out and she had nothing else to do.
Tian Tian took the clothes she bought for Gu Zhao and the lunch box she wanted to bring to Gu Zhao, and went straight to Gu Zhao's unit.
Gu Zhao is considered a scientific researcher. They have a separate building for research. The canteen is not far downstairs from them. It is also the canteen with the highest investment in his entire provincial machinery factory.
Although all of them work in the provincial machinery factory, there are still clear divisions between departments, just like the teachers in their school will not easily go to the cafeterias of other places to eat.
Teachers rarely meet the employees in the machinery factory workshop. Their children are not sent to school, so they may just pass by each other on the road, but it is impossible for them to get to know each other.
It took Tian Tian a long time to arrive. Gu Zhao was already waiting downstairs of their office building. Tian Tian saw Gu Zhao from a distance and hurried over.
Looking at Gu Zhaodong's red face, he said distressedly: "It's a bit late, you didn't wait too long, did you?"
Gu Zhao grinned, and with his red face from the cold, he looked a bit silly.
"I just came out not long ago. I have been waiting in the building!"
Tian Tian touched Gu Zhao's hands, which were as cold as two lumps of ice. She placed Gu Zhao's hands on the back of her head, the part that was warm under the hat.
Gu Zhao's hands will be used to handle precision instruments in the future. If they are frozen, what will he do if he makes an operational mistake?
"Then let's go eat. I don't know if there is any food in the cafeteria at this time?" It was already six o'clock, and the other workers should have finished their meals by now. Only the two of them went a little late.
"If there is no rice, ask him to fry some. Chef Zhou's stir-fried dishes are delicious!" The chef's surname is Zhou. He gets along well with the people in their institute, and his cooking is also excellent.
When the people in their institute are not busy, they like to get together, order a dish, and then eat it slowly.
Gu Zhao took the things from Tian Tian's hand, lowered his head to open it and took a look, and asked casually: "What did you buy? It feels heavy when I lift it!"
"I bought you a suit today, and the lunch box you used when you gave me sweet and sour pork ribs last time." Tian Tian said.
"Take this dress back to the dormitory and try it on to see if it fits. If it doesn't, I'll go to the department store and exchange it for a different size next time!"
After saying that, Tian Tian looked Gu Zhao up and down. He had broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs, a standard model figure. With her many years of experience in making clothes, she knew that the clothes should fit him well.
Gu Zhao took out the clothes and took a look at them. As soon as he touched the fabric, he knew that the clothes must be expensive. "How much is this dress?"
When Tian Tian mentioned this, she felt a little painful. "Don't ask, the money has been spent, just wear it!"
Gu Zhao heard what Tian Tian said, and seeing the pained expression on Tian Tian's face, he smiled and put the clothes back into the bag. "Thank you very much. I really don't have a suit. This is my first suit. I'll wear it and show it to you when I have a chance."
It is not possible recently. He may have to wear tattered clothes to work. Mainly because he has to wear tattered clothes to work. He assembles parts all day long, and his clothes cannot be clean. He can only wear some resistant clothes. However, their unit will also specially give them work clothes, which are durable and sturdy.
The two of them went to the cafeteria hand in hand. There was still some food left in the cafeteria, enough for the two of them. They packed a whole box of food, picked a table and sat down to eat.
Gu Zhao was extremely hungry today. That was how things were in the laboratory. Once he got busy, he had no time to eat. He would only remember to eat when he was done with the work at hand. But by then it was already late and he was already too hungry, so he simply didn't eat.
Gu Zhao didn't have time to eat lunch today. After he finished his work, he saw that it was already around three o'clock. He remembered that Tian Tian asked him to have lunch together in the evening, so he simply skipped the lunch.
Tian Tian was a little hungry now. She had finished her lunch and returned to the machinery factory from the department store. Her stomach was growling with hunger, but she had no appetite when she looked at the food in front of her and her mood was not very good.
"What's wrong? Is the food not tasty?" Although Gu Zhao was concentrating on eating, he did not forget to care about Tian Tian's mood. Seeing that Tian Tian was in a bad mood, he looked up and asked.
"No!" Tian Tian sighed and told Gu Zhao what she was thinking. "I bought you that suit today. The whole set is not cheap. Other clothes in the mall are also very expensive. The cheapest one costs more than a hundred. Those prices suddenly made me think of my parents."
"They wanted to build a house, but they didn't have the money to do so. They probably spent all their savings. But I bought you a piece of clothing and it cost me four hundred and thirty. I could have paid for the house, but I only gave my parents three hundred. My dad was so anxious and angry. I felt so bad."
If Tian Tian really couldn't come up with the money, she would definitely not say anything. She is very rich now. Li Jiuniang would transfer some money to Tian Tian every quarter. That's three or four hundred yuan in four months, and she can earn more than a thousand yuan a year.
Although Li Jiuniang had run the factory for less than a year, he was not idle when he was in college. He often went to the south to sell clothes here, and Tian Tian also got some benefit from it.
