Sun Yan'er and Liu Lan were shocked when they saw the salesperson from the department store coming up to deliver cloth to Dong Sisi and the others.
Sun Yaner said directly, "Sisi, do you two know the salesperson?"
Dong Sisi naturally didn't know him, but she thought Li Mingxi knew him, so she didn't refute it and just looked at Li Mingxi.
Li Mingxi was shocked at this time. She looked at the salesperson's actions and was very confused. She really didn't know what was going on!
First of all, she didn’t know the salesperson, and secondly, how would the salesperson know what she wanted to buy?
Thinking of this, Li Mingxi looked around. She always felt that someone was watching them secretly, so she knew what they were going to buy.
But she looked around and didn't find anyone suspicious.
The salesperson was waiting for Li Mingxi to take the cloth, but after waiting for a long time, she still didn't reach out to take it.
I thought about what the man had said just now: if I gave the cloth to this woman, he would give me two dollars.
That was two dollars, equivalent to her two days' salary. Thinking of this, she spoke again.
"Comrade, this is your cloth, take a look at it!"
When the people around heard what the salesperson said, they gasped. Who in this day and age is so capable as to buy a whole piece of cloth in one go?
Especially the one who just said that Li Mingxi and the others cut in line, when she saw the salesperson coming directly to them with the cloth in her arms, she was so annoyed that jealousy was evident in her eyes.
Li Mingxi saw that everyone around him was looking at him, and suddenly he felt like an animal in a zoo, being watched by others.
But she really didn't know the person in front of her, so she asked directly.
"Comrade, I don't know you. Are you mistaken?"
Dong Sisi was also confused just now. She thought Li Mingxi really knew this person. Now after hearing her say this, she finally reacted.
She looked at the salesperson in front of her and inexplicably felt that this person was probably a liar or a rogue. As long as they accepted the cloth, this person would immediately accuse them of being thieves.
So, Dong Sisi unconsciously stood in front of Li Mingxi and stopped the salesperson.
They asked directly, "Who are you? We don't know you, why did you give us the cloth? Besides, we haven't even told us what kind we want to buy, and you just gave it to us. What's your purpose?"
What purpose could the salesperson have? She just wanted the two dollars commission.
So, she spoke directly, "Someone just bought this and wants to give it to you. It's already been paid for. You can just take it. The ticket has been issued."
As the salesperson said this, he held the receipt in his hand and was about to hand it to Li Mingxi.
Li Mingxi didn't take it. "I can't accept it, comrade. You said it was a gift from someone. Regardless of whether I know the person or not, you said it's just such a large piece of cloth. How can I have the nerve to accept it?"
Li Mingxi looked at the piece of cloth in front of her and really didn't know who could give her a piece of cloth. Among the people she knew, no one was so generous!
Besides, why would that person give me a piece of cloth for no reason?
The salesperson didn't expect that these two dollars would be so hard to earn. If it were someone else, when they heard that someone gave them a piece of cloth, no matter whether they knew the person or not, they would be so happy!
Such a great deal, it would be a shame not to take it, but the girl in front of me is really not an ordinary person, she insists on taking it, what should I do?
For a moment, she was holding a piece of cloth, not knowing what to do. The man had already left.
Now, I can’t deliver the things. What should I do if someone finds out and comes to trouble me?
Thinking of this, she stood there in a daze, regretting that she shouldn't have agreed just now because of the two dollars. Now, isn't this causing herself a big trouble?
So, Li Mingxi saw the salesperson who insisted on giving her the cloth, with a gloomy look on his face.
When the people around saw that Li Mingxi didn't want the cloth, they talked about it and thought that this girl was really a fool.
Li Mingxi doesn't care what others say. She never accepts things from strangers.
At this time, the queue had reached Dong Sisi and her group. Dong Sisi asked for the cloth directly, which was enough to make a set of clothes.
Then he turned around and asked Li Mingxi, "Xiaoxi, do you want to buy it?"
Li Mingxi wanted to make a coat for both his grandmother and mother, so he asked for fourteen feet.
Dong Sisi didn't ask anything about how Li Mingxi could come up with so many cloth coupons at once.
She knew that Xiaoxi's father was a truck driver and traveled frequently, so he must have a lot of tickets!
Dong Sisi knew it, but others didn't. So, Sun Yaner's sister-in-law Liu Lan asked directly.
"Comrade, what do you do for a living? How come you can come up with so many tickets at once?"
Li Mingxi didn't feel offended when she heard someone asking her this, but she wouldn't tell them the specific situation of her family either.
After all, cloth coupons were so hard to get in that era. It was normal for people to be curious when she took out so many at once.
So, she spoke directly, "I'm not working. I'm just at home helping with housework. We've been saving this money for a long time! I can finally make two sets of clothes."
Liu Lan nodded and said, how could an ordinary family come up with so many cloth coupons all of a sudden, except for a family like Dong Sisi who lives alone.
However, looking at the outstanding-looking Li Mingxi in front of her, she felt that this girl was a perfect match for her brother from her mother's side.
Thinking about this, she asked again, "Sisi, how old is your friend? Why does she look younger than you?"
Dong Sisi replied truthfully, "She is younger than me. She is only sixteen this year."
"Have you been to school yet?"
Dong Sisi didn't know why Li Mingxi was asked whether he had gone to school, but she still answered truthfully.
"She went to school and graduated from high school. She's so smart!"
Li Mingxi felt a little embarrassed when he heard Dong Sisi praising him.
"No, not at all, sister-in-law, don't listen to Sisi's nonsense."
When Liu Lan heard Dong Sisi say that this girl is very smart in school, she became even happier. She now thought, so what if this girl doesn't have a job?
When you marry my younger brother, I will find her a temporary job in the county. After a long time, she will definitely be able to become a regular employee. After all, she has the academic qualifications!
Besides, this girl is so pretty and smart. When she has a child with my brother and me, it will definitely be pretty and smart.
Thinking of this, Liu Lan found Li Mingxi more and more pleasing to the eye.
"Come, I'll help you." She now treated Li Mingxi as her own sister-in-law. Seeing her carrying things, she felt that she would be exhausted!
"No need, I can do it myself," Li Mingxi rejected Liu Lan's kindness. She didn't know why Liu Lan was suddenly so enthusiastic towards her.
There must be something wrong when things are abnormal, so Li Mingxi refused her help without thinking.
