Gu Tingchen watched Li Mingxi riding away on a bicycle and wanted to catch up with him, but thinking about the black market, he had to turn around and leave.
Forget it, let’s just leave it at that for this time. Next time, when I see this person again, I must avoid her.
He really didn't want to have too much involvement with these people in the village.
Li Mingxi rode the bike panting and sweating from exhaustion.
Only after finally getting rid of Gu Tingchen did she slow down again.
After stopping, Li Mingxi thought about the tasks his grandmother had assigned him today.
After careful consideration, he went to the textile factory to find Dong Sisi first.
It was a coincidence that I saw Dong Sisi at the entrance of the textile factory just now.
Dong Sisi was talking to a male comrade. Seeing this, Li Mingxi shouted at her.
After hearing this, Dong Sisi waved at Li Mingxi.
Then, no one knew what Dong Sisi said to the man next to her.
The man glanced at Li Mingxi, then ran away embarrassedly.
As soon as Li Mingxi saw Dong Sisi, he started asking.
"Who is that man? Why did he leave as soon as I arrived?"
"Nothing, just a newcomer who's not very clear about the job description. That's why he just came over to ask me!"
Li Mingxi didn't believe what Dong Sisi said at all.
The way that man looked at Dong Sisi just now was obviously not innocent, right?
However, looking at her best friend in front of her, Li Mingxi felt that it was normal for that man to like her, since she was so beautiful!
Thinking of this, Li Mingxi spoke.
"It really doesn't matter, but why do I always feel that the way that person looks at you is unusual?"
Dong Sisi knew that Li Mingxi would tease her, so she immediately retorted.
"That's absolutely not the case. Don't forget, I said before that I won't look for another partner!"
When Li Mingxi saw that Dong Sisi seemed angry, he surrendered immediately.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more, okay!"
The two stopped joking and got down to business.
Dong Sisi was the first to ask.
"Xiao Xi, what brings you here?"
Li Mingxi nodded, and then explained the reason why he came to the county town.
"The New Year is coming soon, and my grandma arranged for me to go to the county town to buy some cloth! If you have nothing to do, come with me!"
"Okay, I also want to go to the department store and take a walk!"
In this way, Dong Sisi and Li Mingxi rode their bicycles towards the department store.
As soon as we arrived at the entrance of the department store, it was noisy with many people coming in and out.
After they stopped the car and locked it, they followed the crowd into the department store.
Then they started lining up. There were a few old women in front of them, and it looked like they knew each other.
At this moment, they were discussing what they were going to buy later.
Only one of the well-dressed maids spoke.
"Today's candies don't require tickets. I'll have to buy more later!"
"Yeah, I'll buy some more too. My grandson was clamoring for some candy a few days ago!"
Another old woman joined their discussion.
"I'm not buying candy. I'm going to buy some more cloth later. Chinese New Year is coming soon, so I want to make a set of clothes for everyone in my family!"
Li Mingxi listened from the side and always felt that this old woman who wanted to buy clothes gave people a sense of superiority, as if she was very powerful.
Anyway, looking at that old woman, Li Mingxi felt that this person had a sense of superiority. Anyway, she seemed quite annoying to Li Mingxi.
Sure enough, just as Li Mingxi thought, the people around her immediately complimented her when they heard her say this.
"Oh, Dali's mother, your family is having a great time. Everyone can wear a new dress!"
Another old woman also echoed.
"That's right, everyone knows that Dali and his wife can earn money, and their lives will be better than ours!"
Li Mingxi saw that the old woman gradually lost herself in the praise of several people.
"No way, no way, aren't your children all good?"
"My Dali is just a little bit stronger, but you shouldn't praise him like that."
When the others heard this, they all laughed in unison.
Just then, an untimely voice rang out.
"You're the ones praising her. Who doesn't know what she's done to her daughter and son-in-law for the sake of her son?"
"Who would have thought that her daughter's family, with two working people, couldn't even support two children?"
When the man said this, I don't know what he was thinking about. A hint of sarcasm appeared on his face, and then he started talking.
"She's well-dressed. A while ago, I saw her nephew and niece, two little kids, with clothes that looked like tattered clothes!"
When the old ladies who were still complimenting him heard this, they looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
At this moment, the old woman who had been pursued just now rushed forward with a roar.
"I told you not to talk nonsense," he shouted, while tickling the sarcastic old woman.
Li Mingxi was shocked when he saw the scene in front of him.
This is too fierce. They started fighting without saying a word.
However, now is not the time to lament this.
Looking at the two old women fighting, Li Mingxi felt that it would be better for her to hide to avoid being accidentally injured.
Just now she saw that a maid next to them was implicated.
Dong Sisi looked at the melee in front of her and spoke cautiously.
"Xiao Xi, why don't we go out first and come back later!"
