Chapter 34: Buying a bra: Which married man likes his wife's breasts bigger?
Chapter 34 Buying a Bra
Yan Jiuru originally wanted to take his parents to shop starting from the fifth floor and then go downstairs to take a quick look before deciding what to buy.
It was only when I reached the fifth floor that I discovered that the entire floor was occupied by offices. The fourth floor was very special. Not only was there a very large Xinhua Bookstore, but there was also a public-private joint venture barber shop, a shoe and hat shop, a tailor shop, a watch repair shop, a youth cinema, a restaurant, and so on.
Even on the side, Yan Jiuru spotted a sign that said "Second Agricultural Materials and Seed Service Station of a certain province."
No wonder it's so lively here.
After taking a look around, Yan Jiuru decided that he must come back to this floor to have a good look around, maybe give his parents and himself a haircut, watch a movie, or even eat in a nice restaurant...
The third floor is for selling expensive and heavy items. I don’t know if they are afraid of losing them or what, but he doesn’t quite understand why such a heavy item as a bicycle is carried to the third floor for sale.
But that’s not important, what’s important is that there are women’s bikes here!
There are also imported mechanical watches for men and women. They are beautiful in appearance, accurate in timekeeping, and waterproof. The salesperson said they are waterproof even under 50 meters.
Sewing machines, table clocks, horseshoe watches, electric fans, televisions, and even refrigerators and washing machines that he had never seen before. The prices were so high that he couldn't afford them even if he had several thousand in rewards.
The second and first floors are more everyday, with all kinds of daily necessities, candies, biscuits, etc. There is indeed a rich variety of goods and people are bustling about.
Yan Jiuru pulled his parents into a corner, away from people, and handed his mother a handful of money and tickets. He said, "You two go shopping first. Buy whatever you want. If you can't decide, just look around. I'll go check out the bookstore and the agricultural supply and seed station. It's late and they'll be closed."
His family is not so short of food and clothing now, and they can buy them anytime, but such a large bookstore and agricultural supply station are so close by, and he can't appease his farming heart if he doesn't go and have a look.
His father said with a smile, "If you hadn't told me, I would have liked to go and see it myself someday. How about letting your mother go first, and then we can go to the agricultural supply station together?"
There was also eagerness in his father's eyes. After all, he was a genuine old farmer.
His mother, who had money in her pocket, was not in a hurry. "You two go ahead. I'll just watch the fun first. If I want to buy anything, I'll come back to the bookstore to find you two. Anyway, you two can't go fast enough."
Yan Jiuru was not afraid that his mother would lose it, he just reminded her not to put money and bills in her pockets as they could be easily swiped and stolen.
"Who would still put money in their pocket if they knew you caught a thief?" His mother ran to the fabric counter with the money in her hand.
The father and son stayed behind to rub their noses and went up to the agricultural supplies station.
***
His father is a genuine old farmer. As soon as he entered the agricultural supply and seed station, he felt like a fish falling into the river or the sea, unable to pull his eyes out.
What about the high-yield rice varieties No. 1 and No. 2, and what about the high-quality corn, peanuts, and wheat? When I inquired about them one by one, I found out that they were all experimental varieties of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. They had just come out and had not been widely promoted yet.
In addition, there are fertilizers, pesticides, and the most special thing is plastic film, diesel engine water pumps, water hoses, etc.
His father was intent on finding good varieties, but Yan Jiuru took a fancy to a diesel water pump, which made watering much easier.
Their brigade has no electricity, so this oil-powered water pump is just right. However, it is not cheap, costing more than two hundred yuan.
His father happened to have a letter of introduction from the brigade, and he bought some good seeds, pesticides and a small amount of chemical fertilizers.
There is no way around it. This kind of agricultural supplies are basically allocated by the state, that is, the agricultural supply stations in the provincial capital only have sporadic supplies, but they are also limited.
There is no limit on the quantity of plastic film, but it is not cheap and not many people use it, so I sold them two large rolls.
Yan Jiuru bought the water pump he liked.
The agricultural seed station was full of samples, and they had to pick up what they wanted from the warehouse. Yan Jiuru took the opportunity to ask if they could deliver it to a guesthouse, especially the water pump, which needed to be tested.
The other party collected the money, gave them a receipt, and promised to deliver it to them around 8:30 tomorrow morning. He would also try out the water pump and provide guidance on its use.
Yan Jiuru thought about going back and discussing with Comrade Sun about setting off later tomorrow, so he agreed.
***
Both father and son bought what they liked. Dad Yan went to see his wife, while Yan Jiuru went straight to the Xinhua Bookstore.
This bookstore is two or three times bigger than the one in Ze County. It has a wide variety of books and picture albums. In addition, it also sells portraits of various leaders, badges, etc.
Yan Jiuru first asked where he could buy mechanical books. He wanted to find some technical books on water pump maintenance, so that he wouldn't have to go back and fumble around if something broke. He would have to ask someone from far away to repair it. Not only would it be troublesome, but it would also waste time.
"Water pump maintenance. There aren't any specialized books on this, but there are similar mechanical techniques. They're all in the third and fourth rows. Take a look first."
When the salesperson heard that he wanted to buy a technical book, he thought he was a technician or something and gave him some guidance very enthusiastically.
Yan Jiuru glanced at the mobile red flag on his post and found that he was a model worker.
Yan Jiuru spent more than an hour in the bookstore. He not only picked up a pile of books on mechanical and electronic technology, but also bought a pile of junior and senior high school textbooks and tutorial books.
He and Chen Yin both love studying. Although they cannot take the college entrance examination now, all companies that recruit employees require exams. They can take a look at it when they are free to avoid falling behind.
The key point is that the content of these textbooks and materials is much richer than what is taught in their commune high school. They have not learned a lot of the content, and the value of this high school diploma is probably not as good as that in big cities.
Lord Demon has always wanted to stand at the top whenever he has the chance. He will definitely make up for his shortcomings when he has the chance.
In addition, he found a pile of obvious processed items at the bottom of a row of shelves.
He went to the sales representative to ask about it. He dragged out several cartons of old books and whispered, "These are from the former Commercial Press. They're an elementary school collection, 500 volumes. They said they're going to get rid of them. Don't we have time?"
This book is a good one, but I got it from a certain Brother Su, so it’s a bit sensitive, so I’ve kept it secret and never made it public.
Yan Jiuru understood.
This is a pity that everyone feels, and they are trying to find a way to preserve it temporarily, but it can only be preserved temporarily, not necessarily for a long time.
Yan Jiuru was not afraid: "I am a farmer. I will go back to the countryside tomorrow. If it is cost-effective, I will take it back to burn."
The business model had an expression that said, "If I believe you, you'd be stupid." If he hadn't seen the other party buy several stacks of books at once, he wouldn't have dared to say this to the other party.
"Take all five dollars!"
Yan Jiuru: "Okay, I'll take them all."
He also picked out a dozen picture albums, several picture books, some portraits of leaders and quotations, etc.
I also found a counter selling pens, ink, paper and inkstones in a corner of the bookstore. They actually sold rice paper, brushes of different thicknesses, inkstones and ink sticks. Moreover, they were all in good condition, which is really not easy to come by.
Yan Jiuru asked directly: "Is there anything better? Do you have cinnabar?"
The other party looked at him and silently dragged out a box of stock from the warehouse.
Yan Jiuru has money, so he just issues an invoice and pays directly.
When his parents came over, they saw their son and the salesperson moving and lifting several boxes of books and other things.
"Your injury has just healed, don't stretch it." Yan's father hurried forward to take it.
The salesperson also asked: "Are you injured? Sorry, I didn't notice it."
As a business model, he will definitely do his best to help. If the person's wound is serious, he will not provide good service.
Yan Jiuru smiled and said, "It's okay, it's a work injury, it's almost healed."
Then he looked at his parents and asked, "You two didn't buy anything?"
"There are so many good things, I don't know which one is better. I'll wait for you to decide." As I get older, I feel a little restrained in the big city. I dare not make decisions on anything, except for the farming that I am familiar with.
Yan Jiuru looked at the boxes of books and other things and asked, "Do you have a cart? I'd like to borrow it."
Of course there must be one.
With the help of the business model, Yan Jiuru and his father pushed the cart back to the guesthouse first. By the way, they told Comrade Sun that the agricultural supplies station would deliver some things the next morning, so they might have to set off later.
Comrade Sun naturally agreed, and he even said considerately, "If you can't finish it tomorrow, you can leave early the day after tomorrow."
He sighed in his heart, he is indeed not an ordinary person.
The vast majority of people, not just farmers but also people from county towns, who come to the provincial capital don't buy clothes and daily necessities first? There are not many people like Yan Jiuru and his father who first rush to buy agricultural supplies and knowledge.
***
Yan Jiuru was actually not that high-class. He rushed back to the department store and helped his parents pick out fabrics, needles and thread, and various gifts such as rulers, tea, wine, and snacks.
He picked out a pair of black leather shoes with heels for Chen Yin and bought himself a pair of leather boots. He wanted to buy his father a pair as well, but his father strongly refused, so he gave up this time.
Then, at the counter selling shirts and vests, he saw a women's vest.
"Comrade, do you have a larger size for this small vest?"
The saleswoman lowered her voice when she saw that he was a man who came to buy a women's bra. However, as a March 8th Red Flag Bearer, she would not treat customers differently.
The salesperson asked enthusiastically, "Excuse me, do you know the size?"
Yan Jiuru: Although I am not shy, you don’t have to be so loud.
Facing the crowd's curious and fiery gazes, Yan Jiuru said with red ears: "The child is less than a hundred days old, and my wife is still breastfeeding..."
The March 8th Red Flag Bearer was also a mother, so she immediately understood. She pulled out a pink and white half-length vest with buttons on the front from the counter and showed it to Yan Jiuru: "This is most suitable for breastfeeding mothers. Which of these two sizes do you think is the right size?"
What married man doesn't know the size of his wife's breasts?!
There was no need for a ruler to measure. Yan Jiuru held up the two small vests with her hands and knew the number. "This is the size. What color are they?"
He picked a pink and white and a bright red. As a straight man, he thought his wife would like pink, but he liked her to wear bright red, which would make her look even whiter.
He also bought a plaid shirt for Chen Yin, a shirt for Ruchun, and a suspender skirt for Ruyue.
None of these cost much. The biggest expense was the pair of imported watches that he liked. He didn't need any tickets and spent a total of 1,785.6 yuan. After adjusting the time, he put them in a low-key and luxurious box.
Father Yan and Aunt Yan also had their hands full of things, but all their possessions combined were not as much as their son's.
After all, the money was earned by my son.
***
After dinner, Yan Jiuru waited for his parents to go to bed, and then he went out again while it was late at night and everyone was asleep.
It’s so hard to come to the provincial capital, I can’t miss it.
He didn't go looking for the black market specifically, but used his spiritual sense to look for places with few people, as well as abandoned houses and the like.
It is said that the bigger the place, the more rich people there are. That night, he spent more than three hours to find more than 200 yellow croakers of various sizes, as well as 20 to 30 pieces of high-quality jade and other items. He did not take any that were inconvenient to carry.
What's even more outrageous is that he ran into two gangs of gangsters fighting each other. They seemed to be from the Revolutionary Committee. He took advantage of the fight between the two gangs and secretly took away a bag of things, which seemed to be money and bills.
Make a small fortune again!
Just ask, who can be as lucky as him, where people come to him to make a fortune wherever he goes?
Back at the guesthouse, Yan Jiuru stuffed his belongings into the boxes he had bought and hid them. He didn't even dare to wash up before quietly falling asleep. In his dreams, he was still thinking about buying a women's bicycle for his wife.
