That evening, in the side room of the Sun family's house.
Excited, Sun Zheng'an couldn't sleep and insisted on chatting with Sun Zhengguo.
"Brother, after you get married, when do you think I should ask Mom and Dad to propose marriage?"
"Why wait? If you can't take it anymore, you can go now. Why are you asking me?"
Sun Zhengguo was getting sleepy and didn't want to waste time arguing with his brother, so he spoke in a sharp and sarcastic tone.
“I asked my mom, and she said that once I graduate and get a job, I’ll be able to support a wife, and then she’ll ask her to propose marriage to me.”
"I think Mom is right. Just wait a little longer, it'll be no more than a year."
"this……?"
Sun Zheng'an was speechless. Was that what I meant?
Tonight, after seeing his older brother receive 1,000 yuan, he admitted he was tempted and wanted to get a share of the money so he could get married sooner. However, Sun Zhengguo didn't take the bait.
"Brother, can you give me some advice? Is it possible to get my parents to give me that 1,000 yuan ahead of schedule?"
"Hey! Brother, why aren't you saying anything?"
"Snoring...!"
As if in response to Sun Zheng'an's words, a series of snores came from the bed opposite.
Ignored by everyone, Sun Zheng'an could only helplessly turn over, his back to Sun Zhengguo, and fall into deep thought, unable to fall asleep for a long time.
The following morning, after the family finished breakfast, Sun Zhengguo began packing his things to go out.
Sun Zhenghong came in from outside and happened to see this scene.
"Brother, you're going shopping today, do you want me to give you some advice?"
"No need, your sister-in-law and I aren't children, we don't need your advice."
Sun Zhengguo didn't want a little tagalong following him around. Wasn't it better for her to enjoy her own private time with him?
"Stop messing around, Zheng Hong. Your brother went on a date, why are you following him?"
Seeing that his mother also didn't support him, Sun Zhenghong made a face and left.
"Mom, I'm leaving now."
"Okay! Take it easy. By the way, are you coming back for lunch?"
"You guys eat! Don't wait for me."
After Sun Zhengguo finished speaking, he pushed his bike out of the courtyard and rode it for about ten minutes to Ning Xiaowei's house.
When Wang Guiying saw Sun Zhengguo, she immediately stopped what she was doing and welcomed him into the courtyard.
"Auntie, go ahead and do what you need to do! Don't worry about me."
Sun Zhengguo has now become a seasoned veteran and doesn't need Wang Guiying's help at all.
"It's alright, it's alright. I can do it after you leave."
As the two were talking, Ning Xiaowei came out of the house.
She dressed up specially for going shopping today, and even used the perfume that Sun Zhengguo gave her.
Now that she's met Sun Zhengguo, she's definitely going to show off.
"You're here, Jung-guk. How's my outfit today?"
After saying that, Ning Xiaowei put one hand on her hip and spun around.
Wang Guiying, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but cover her face. This silly girl was still the same as when she was a child. As long as she dressed up a little nicely, she would definitely show off.
"Alright, alright, it's getting late. You two should go buy your things! Stop showing off here. If you want to show off, go back inside and do it."
Wang Guiying's words left both of them speechless.
The two of them went back inside to show off? Mother-in-law, are you serious?
Sun Zhengguo thought to himself, "If you don't object, I'd really like to give it a try."
Seeing the somewhat awkward atmosphere in the courtyard, Wang Guiying realized that her words earlier were inappropriate and quickly said something.
"What are you all standing there for? Zhengguo, weren't you going to take Xiaowei shopping? Hurry up and go. Remember to come over for lunch, and I'll kill a chicken for you."
Upon hearing the words "killing chickens," Sun Zhengguo glanced at the chicken coop and then said with a smile.
"Auntie, it's not easy for you to raise these chickens, so please keep them! We're leaving now, we won't be back for lunch."
After saying that, the two left the courtyard together, got on their bikes, and headed towards Wangfujing Street.
As soon as the car started moving, Ning Xiaowei in the back seat couldn't help but ask.
"Jung-guk, you still haven't answered my question when I was at your house earlier."
"My mother-in-law was here just now, how am I supposed to answer?"
"Now that there's no one else around, you can talk now, right?"
Ning Xiaowei's stubborn streak kicked in; she was determined to hear the answer today.
"Xiaowei, you're beautiful even without makeup, let alone after you've dressed up."
"real?"
"Xiaowei, if you don't believe me, let's find a secluded place, and I'll let you kiss me a few times to prove I'm not lying."
"Get lost! You're always so irresponsible. No wonder you couldn't find a girlfriend in school. What woman would want to marry someone like you?"
"Look at what you're saying! You've confused yourself. Aren't you a woman?"
"Hmph! You still have the nerve to say that? It's because you took advantage of me that I got on your pirate ship."
"Hahaha……."
The two chatted and laughed all the way, and before long they arrived at the department store on Wangfujing Street.
After locking their bicycles, the two entered the department store.
Seeing the dazzling array of goods and the constant flow of people inside, Ning Xiaowei couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
Wow! Jung-guk, there are so many things here, and look how many people are buying things.
"Of course, this is the number one store in China, and it's the weekend, how could it not be crowded?"
"So, what should we buy first?"
"No rush. Since we're here, let's look around first, and then we'll buy you a watch. Look at such a beautiful wrist, what would it look like without a watch?"
Which girl could resist such simple and honest language?
Ning Xiaowei was deeply moved and felt a warm glow inside, nodding blankly the whole time.
Actually, with the Ning family's means, buying a watch wouldn't be a problem at all.
The reason she didn't buy it wasn't because Wang Guiying was stingy. She planned to buy it when her daughter got married, so that it could be part of her dowry and would be more prestigious. That's why she kept putting it off until today.
After discussing it, the two started strolling around. If they saw something they wanted to buy, they would write it down and come back later.
Half an hour later, the two of them finished browsing the entire building and returned to the second floor, because the watch section was located on the second floor.
"Wow! Zhengguo, there are so many brands here, I don't know which one to choose."
"It's okay, whichever one you like, we'll buy it. I'm not short of money."
Sun Zhengguo's extravagant behavior failed to win the heart of the beautiful woman; instead, he was met with a cold shoulder.
Ning Xiaowei didn't understand any of this; she just watched anyway!
The two first looked at the Shanghai brand, but neither of them liked it. Then they looked at the Seagull brand, but still couldn't find a suitable one.
"How about we go take a look at imported watches?"
Faced with Sun Zhengguo's suggestion, Ning Xiaowei hesitated. Who wouldn't want an imported watch? But it must be expensive.
"It won't hurt to go take a look. Besides, imported watches aren't necessarily expensive."
Sun Zhengguo noticed Ning Xiaowei's concerns and offered some words of advice.
"Okay! Let's go take a look. But let's make it clear first, if it's too expensive, then we don't need to buy it."
After discussing it, the two headed towards the imported watch section.
