Everyone was overwhelmed by the things in the department store. There were many things in the department store that the supply and marketing cooperatives did not have, and there were also many foreign things, such as chocolate, which they had never seen in the supply and marketing cooperatives.
But when they saw the price, they immediately gave up the idea.
The things here are so beautiful and the prices are so high that they simply cannot afford them.
So Lin Meiyu and the others could only take a look from below.
Tian Tian quietly told the Tian family that if they had anything they were used to, they should tell her and she would buy it for them.
This time when Li Jiuniang came to attend Tian Tian's wedding, he also specially brought a lot of money to Tian Tian, saying it was Tian Tian's dividend for the first half of the year.
Tian Tian did not save the money. She planned to use it to buy things for Lin Meiyu and others.
Tian Tian didn't say this out loud, "You don't plan to tell Wu Juan and the others."
They came to attend Tian Tian's wedding, and it was normal for Tian Tian to cover their food and accommodation, but this did not mean that Tian Tian had to pay for all their expenses. Tian Tian was not such a sucker.
Because Wu Juan brought her two children with her, they were strolling around the toy area downstairs.
The rest of the people went up to the clothing area on the second floor.
You're not daydreaming. It's a rare trip to the provincial capital, so you might as well buy two sets of clothes for your children.
Many of the items below did not require invoices, and Lin Meixia also thought that she did not need invoices to buy clothes either. She thought about borrowing some money from Tian Tian first, buying the clothes first, and then paying back the remaining money slowly.
When he went to take a look, he found that the clothes were not only beautiful but also extremely expensive, costing hundreds or even dozens of dollars per piece. Tian simply couldn't afford them, not even by borrowing money.
In the end, Lin Meixia gave up the idea with a gloomy face and just wandered around bored.
Lin Meiyu and the others didn't dare to buy the clothes because of the sky-high prices, but they saw one or two clothes that they had at home while sitting in the mall.
Chen Guihua asked Tian Tian in surprise, "Did you buy all the clothes you bought for us here?"
"I've only bought one or two pieces. They're not expensive and are considered relatively cheap clothes here." Tian Tian said with a smile.
"Child, why did you buy such expensive clothes for us? We do farm work every day and can't wear these nice clothes. We would be so sad if they were worn out. You don't have to buy these clothes for us in the future. If you really want to, just buy us the cloth and we can make our own clothes then!" said Chen Guihua.
"Don't worry, aunt. I didn't buy too many clothes. Just one or two pieces. They were all made of coarse cloth. You can keep those two pieces for going out. Look, you are all wearing them now, aren't you? It's not a waste!" Tian Tian said with a smile.
The clothes that Chen Guihua and the others are wearing now are the ones that Tian Tian bought from the department store before.
Tian Tian also knew that clothes here were expensive, so she didn’t buy too many pieces. She just bought one set for each of them, also wanting them to have clothes to wear when they went out.
When buying clothes, Tian Tian did not forget Chen Guihua's family, mainly because their two families had a good relationship. Although they have separated now, their friendship has not diminished.
When Tian Mu and Tian Zhuo have nothing to do, they will stay at each other's house for a night and have a meal. When there is something happening at Tian Tian's house, Chen Guihua and others will also come to help. For example, when Tian Tian's family was building a house, Tian Lisong and others went to stay at Chen Guihua's house.
Moreover, if either family had any rare items, they would send a portion to the other family.
For example, Tian Tian's family is living a better life now, but Chen Guihua and others are not jealous of Tian Tian or do anything bad.
Especially now that Tian Zhuo can also earn money, Chen Guihua will not look down on herself just because Tian Zhuo earns less money now and the things he buys in the county town are not as good as those of Tian Tian's family. The two families also have normal interactions.
Tian Tian thought this was a good idea. Since they had a good relationship with her parents and were her close uncle and aunt, who had taken care of Tian Tian since she was a child, they were no different from Tian Tian's second mother. Tian Tian was also willing to treat them well and would never forget to buy them anything she bought.
Chen Guihua and the others also reciprocated the favor. For example, whenever Tian Mu bought something, they would send a portion to his home.
As time went by, the two families not only did not become distant, but became closer.
"Just one set of clothes is enough for you. Don't buy any more clothes for your family in the future. We farmers don't have an occasion to wear clothes out all year round. If you buy so many clothes and keep them at home, isn't that a waste?" Chen Guihua taught Tian Tian a lesson.
"It won't be wasted. Just leave it there. The clothes won't wear out anyway. And you don't work all year round in the countryside. You don't have to work in the summer. You can wear those clothes and go out to show off!" Tian Tian knew that Chen Guihua liked to show off outside the most.
When Tian Tian just gave the clothes to Chen Guihua, the fabric of the clothes was not thin even in the summer, and it was very hot to wear. Even so, Chen Guihua could still go out for more than half an hour wearing that clothes, and her face was sunburned red when she came back.
Tian Tian was worried that Chen Guihua had heatstroke. But after Chen Guihua took off her clothes, she said she would wear them again tomorrow and go out for another walk. Tian Tian was both amused and speechless at the time.
"I'm so old, and I'm still showing off. I'm different now!" Chen Guihua said with a rare embarrassment.
Now that I'm older, I've become more stable. Mainly, Tian Mu is old enough now. Chen Guihua has been looking for a wife for Tian Mu for some time. I feel that I should be more stable, otherwise how can I be a good old lady in the future?
Tian Tian also knew that Chen Guihua was looking for a daughter for Tian Mu everywhere, and her requirements were quite high. To find a girl from the city for Tian Mu, according to Chen Guihua, she would never move to the city in the future and would live in this brigade, and would not become a burden to Tian Mu. Now Tian Mu was a worker in the city, so it was normal for him to find a city girl. The two of them could live their life in the city, and Chen Guihua would not have to worry about Tian Mu having no one to take care of him in the city. It also solved Tian Mu's marriage problem, which was a win-win situation.
"This is perfect. The new clothes will be ready for Tian Mu to wear when he gets married, and he doesn't have to prepare new clothes." Tian Tian said with a smile.
Chen Guihua rolled her eyes in annoyance, "You're waiting for him to get married, but we don't even know when he'll get married. You can't count on him at all!"
Chen Guihua has been looking for a partner for Tian Mu during this period, and she is so angry. Tian Mu's heart is not in this at all. He thinks about the parts in the workshop every day. It is harder than climbing to the sky to get him to meet a blind date.
Now Tian Tian is married, and the oldest among them is Tian Mu, who is already in his twenties. I don’t know what’s wrong with the Tian family, each one gets married later than the other. Tian Tian already has a partner when she was Tian Mu’s age, but Tian Mu doesn’t even have one.
"Forget it, let's not mention him. It makes me upset and in a bad mood when I mention him!" Chen Guihua said unhappily.
He pulled Tian Tian to look at clothes. Although the clothes in the department store were a little more expensive, they were really beautiful, and there were more styles and designs than those in the supply and marketing cooperatives. Although they couldn't afford them, after seeing how the clothes were cut, they could make a set for themselves when they went back.
The things above are really too expensive. They are either clothes that cost hundreds of dollars or large electrical appliances, such as washing machines, televisions, and refrigerators.
Chen Guihua and her friends thought that clothes were expensive, so naturally they would not buy these electrical appliances. However, they still showed great enthusiasm for them because these were the first time they had seen them. Not to mention televisions, although no one in their team had a television, everyone had heard of them. However, they had never heard of things like refrigerators and washing machines.
These things cost two or three thousand yuan at a time, and they didn't even dare to get close to them. They could only sigh at them from afar.
I have thought about buying a refrigerator or a washing machine for my home. It would be much better to store things in a refrigerator, at least things won't break down so easily in the summer. A washing machine would also make life a lot easier for my mother.
But then they thought again, they only wash clothes a few times a year, and summer clothes are basically worn out and thrown out on the same day. Whoever wears the clothes should throw them out, so Lin Meiyu and the others don't have to do it.
Moreover, it is too inconvenient to buy these things here. After buying things in the provincial capital, I have to find a way to send them to the county town. And if something breaks, I have no way to find someone to repair it. The price is also very expensive for Tian Tian.
So in the end Tian Tian said nothing.
Several people stayed upstairs for quite a long time, and finally went downstairs empty-handed. When they went downstairs, they heard some noise and the crying of children.
Tian Tian is a very good person. She just loves this kind of gossip. When they heard the noise, Old Lady Tian and Lin Meiyu ran over without even having time to stop Tian Tian.
Tian Tian was originally wondering whose child was not well disciplined and started crying again in the mall, but when she got there she found that it was Wu Juan’s two children. One of the children was rolling around on the ground, while the other was crying and trying to reach for the small toys on the counter.
