Chapter 13 Procurement
Due to Shi Yanjin's leg problem, Meng Ruoxi chose to only shop on the first floor.
I first went to the clothing area and saw a salesperson sitting at the counter knitting clothes. When she noticed someone coming, she just raised her eyelids and lowered her head to continue knitting.
With no one paying attention to her, Meng Ruoxi felt more at ease and looked around at the clothes hanging on the wall.
After looking around, she set her eyes on two white shirts and two pairs of mid-high waisted flared jeans.
"Hello, please help me take down the second white shirt in the first row on the upper left corner behind you, and the first shirt in the second row on the lower right corner."
Then he pointed to the other side and said, "There are also the second pair of jeans in the third row and the fourth pair of jeans in the last row. I want all of them in the smallest size."
When the salesperson heard that this was actually a big customer, he immediately dropped the things in his hands, stood up, and took out the items for her one by one as Meng Ruoxi said, and also told her the price and cloth coupons.
At this time Meng Ruoxi saw that the salesperson took the bill that Shi Yanjin handed over, issued a receipt, but did not collect the money directly. Instead, she clipped the receipt and the bill together to one of the countless iron clips on a wire above her head.
Then the clip slid along the wire to the cashier counter at the back. After a while, the change and receipt slid back along the wire.
Seeing this scene with her own eyes, Meng Ruoxi was amazed.
It turns out that this is how you pay for things back then.
Clothes were very expensive at that time. Two sets cost me eighty yuan and countless cloth coupons.
When I was leaving, the salesperson even said, "Have a nice day."
Meng Ruoxi nodded politely and was about to leave when Shi Yanjin stopped her and pointed at the red dress hanging on the wall and asked, "What do you think of wearing it on your wedding day?"
"Okay." Meng Ruoxi nodded.
The one who paid was the eldest master, and since Shi Yanjin asked, it meant that he liked her, so she didn't care.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Shi Yanjin asked the salesperson to get it.
The salesperson did as he was told, but he was grumbling in his heart.
It turns out they are an engaged couple, I really can't tell.
The red dress costs thirty-six yuan. Although it is expensive, it looks good.
After buying clothes, it's time to buy shoes.
When they arrived at the shoe area, Meng Ruoxi picked out two pairs of shoes.
A pair of white Huili shoes is nine yuan, and a pair of black leather shoes is eighteen yuan.
She had good taste and the things she picked were quite expensive. Fortunately, Shi Yanjin had the money and tickets and was willing to spend them. He did not look unhappy at all during the whole process and his face was always smiling. You could tell at a glance that he was in a very good mood.
They went to the daily necessities area and bought some useful things. Since Shi Yanjin could not accompany them to the upper floor, he suggested that Meng Ruoxi go by herself and buy whatever she liked. He also gave her some money, but she refused.
There was a pile of things on the ground. Meng Ruoxi called the young man driving the ox cart over and helped him move the things onto the ox cart.
After moving, they started to feel hungry. Shi Yanjin suggested considerately, "I'm hungry, let's go to the state-owned hotel for dinner."
Meng Ruoxi nodded and said, "Okay."
When the two wanted to ask the young man to go with them, he rejected their kindness.
There were not many people in the state-owned hotel at that time. Meng Ruoxi went to the front desk to order food, Shi Yanjin paid the bill and the ticket, and the two of them found a table and sat down.
There were two men sitting against the wall, one was wearing a suit and tie, looking like an elite, and the other was wearing a Zhongshan suit, looking elegant.
They all looked under 30 years old, around 27 or 28 years old. They were all handsome with clean features, typical successful people and handsome guys.
Meng Ruoxi admired it for a few seconds and then looked away.
Perhaps he noticed someone was looking at him, so he turned his head to Cheng Wu, and saw a pretty and lively girl looking away, and he was stunned.
What a cute and lively girl!
As he was talking, the person in front of him suddenly turned his head to him. Sen Lingyin followed his gaze and was inevitably stunned.
He prided himself on being a beauty-seeker, but this was the first time he had seen such a lively girl.
The corners of his lips couldn't help but rise, making his handsome face even more beautiful and charming.
His brows wrinkled slightly, and he retracted his gaze. Shi Yanjin calmed his expression and looked intently at the girl in front of him.
After the waiter brought the meal over, Meng Ruoxi ate the meal elegantly, putting everything in the outside world behind her.
She knew that Shi Yanjin was always looking at her. She felt unhappy at first, but gradually got used to it.
After finishing the meal, the two returned to where the ox cart was parked and rode back to the village.
