Chapter 364 Buying Gifts
Fortunately, he was in good health, because the snow was too thick, he could only run very fast so that his feet would not sink so easily.
Fortunately, the normal two-hour journey was not enough for Zhao Shengrui's running speed, and he arrived at the commune in more than an hour.
Even though he had been running for more than an hour and it seemed like a long time, to Zhao Shengrui he had only just begun to sweat. There was nothing he could do about it, his physical condition was getting better and better, and this little amount of exercise meant nothing to him.
When I arrived at the commune, I took the three large sacks of meat when no one was around, and went to the post office to mail them.
The staff at the post office said he was lucky because they had been on holiday since the next day, and if he didn't come until after 12 o'clock, they wouldn't be able to send the mail to them.
When it's 12 noon and the post office closes, all the goods in the post office will be delivered, so Zhao Shengrui is so lucky.
When waiting for the mailing, there were many envious eyes again. After all, to be able to bring so much meat, he must have some family background. Xi saw that Zhao Shengrui didn't look like someone who was not easy to mess with, so no one dared to ask anything. They could only pack it for him, fill out the form and send it to him according to the procedure.
After all the things were settled, Zhao Shengrui went to the post office, looked at the clock on the wall and it was half past nine. He thought it was still early, as the Chinese New Year was tomorrow, so he went to the supply and marketing cooperative today to see if there were any good things, just in time to choose a New Year gift for his wife.
My wife has worked hard taking care of several kids at home, and I can't always be with her. I still feel guilty about that. Although I can't help much, I can still buy her a gift to cheer her up.
I did it as I thought and walked directly towards the supply and marketing cooperative. Maybe it was Chinese New Year tomorrow, and the supply and marketing cooperative was crowded and I couldn't squeeze in.
Moreover, there was a steady stream of people outside trying to squeeze into the supply and marketing cooperative. When Zhao Shengrui saw this, he wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead and could only bite the bullet and squeeze in. After all, it was still early. When it got later, people from villages from all directions would come, and more people would crowd into the supply and marketing cooperative. By then, it would not be as easy to get in as it is now.
Zhao Shengrui relied on his tall stature and used some skill to get into the crowd. He quickly took a few steps forward until he reached the stairs leading to the second floor, where there were fewer people.
Thinking that there was nothing to buy downstairs, I would definitely go upstairs to choose a gift for my wife, so I turned around and went upstairs.
He originally thought that there would be fewer people upstairs, but unfortunately he underestimated the enthusiasm of the people during the Chinese New Year. He bought things that he was reluctant to buy at other times, but during the Chinese New Year he did so.
The second and third floors all have relatively expensive things, and people are only willing to buy them during Chinese New Year, so relatively speaking, there are still a lot of people, but not as scary as downstairs.
Zhao Shengrui walked around the second floor, where there were bicycles, sewing machines, watches, cloth clothes and the like for sale. Of course, he also saw some accessories, but he felt that they were not as pretty as the ones his wife brought with her, so he didn't like the things in there.
I can only say that I have seen too many good things, so I have become more picky about these things. I don’t even look at where the things his wife brought came from. How can things that have been brought back decades later not look good?
Thinking that my wife has been making clothes for herself at home these days, why not buy her a sewing machine to make her feel more relaxed? I took out the tickets in my pocket and looked at them, but found that there was no sewing machine ticket. I can only regretfully buy it next time.
Before leaving, I took a few more glances at the sewing machine. I was not well prepared. My cousin also had two wives, and the bicycle was not used at home.
I went directly to the third floor. There were relatively fewer people on the third floor, most of whom were middle-aged ladies and girls who were dressed well.
Zhao Shengrui took a look and then looked at the things on the third floor carefully. After all, she had never been to the third floor before, and she didn't know what the things sold there were like. She just heard that the things on the third floor were a bit expensive, so she didn't come up without some money in her pocket.
Although Zhao Shengrui didn't look closely at the people around him, he was noticed by others as soon as he went upstairs. After all, he was really good-looking, otherwise Tang Yue would not have fallen in love with him at first sight.
The one who fell in love with her was a girl next to her, who was accompanied by her mother. When she saw Zhao Shengrui coming up, she quickly pulled her mother's hand, wanting her mother to see what this guy was like.
As a mother, she certainly knows her daughter very well. As soon as she sees her daughter's expression, she knows what's going on. However, she is always more knowledgeable and experienced than her daughter. At first glance, this guy doesn't look like an unmarried person.
After all, a single guy will always take a second look at a pretty girl when he sees her. This guy just glanced at her and then looked away, which shows that he has a wife at home and won't look at others outside.
After taking a closer look, she knew that her daughter had no hope. "Look more carefully, and you will find that this guy is married."
The girl didn't believe it. How could her mother tell at a glance that the boy was married?
The girl shyly glanced at Zhao Shengrui. There was nothing she could do about it. He was indeed too handsome. She leaned against her mother and asked, "Mom, how did you see him?"
The middle-aged woman looked at her daughter with dismay and whispered in her ear, "So I told you to look around more. Look at this guy, he looks so serious, he doesn't look like someone who comes here often. Look at the things on the third floor, most of them are sold by women. He must be buying things for others when he's here. I didn't expect that."
After listening to her mother's words, Miss 께 thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. She felt very disappointed instantly. Fortunately, as a girl from a good family, she was well-educated, so she didn't go up to ask directly, but just stood by and watched Zhao Shengrui silently.
The middle-aged woman didn't say anything when she saw her daughter like this. After all, they had all been young before, and all they had to do was know their limits. Who hasn't met a few people who amazed their entire life when they were young?
It is normal to be moved when seeing outstanding people, as long as she can control herself, she will not pay too much attention to them. She still has faith in her daughter. The infatuation is only temporary and she will wake up sooner or later.
As an excellent soldier, how could Zhao Shengrui not feel the gazes from the side? He just saw that it was a girl, and there was no dangerous aura on the girl, so he didn't pay too much attention to her.
