Chapter 58 Peeling the Skin
"Tsk tsk tsk...why are you laughing so meanly?"
Xu Qiang saw Shen Cheng's seductive smile with those dazzling eyes. As a childhood friend, Xu Qiang always felt that he had some bad intentions.
It's still about Shao Yang.
He immediately became interested, with a sense of saccharine happiness: "What's wrong? Do you know Shao Yang, the blind date? Is he not easy to pester?"
"No." Shen Cheng restrained his smile. He did not comment on girls' habits.
What's more, he didn't understand Jiang Pengyu's sister's personality.
He just said, "I just think Shao Yang might fall."
The personality differences between the two siblings shouldn't be too big.
Jiang Pengyu has a straight-forward and masculine personality, so his sister shouldn't be too gentle.
Shao Yang has no other talents, but his face is acceptable.
If they really meet and the other person likes him, Shao Yang will be in trouble.
Shao Yang has been hypocritical since he was young. Although he is cunning, when he meets girls, he can never bring himself to say harsh words because of his hypocritical nature.
It would be even more interesting if Peng Yu's sister fell in love with him but he looked down on her. At least he would be skinned alive.
It’s better for the brother and sister to pick it together.
Xu Qiang was so speechless that he rolled his eyes.
He laughed so happily when he thought Shao Yang was about to fall. They are indeed childhood enemies. But why does he also want to see the joke?
"By the way, you haven't told me why you asked for leave this time?"
Xu Qiang knows Shen Cheng very well. He likes the life in the army so much that he is basically a workaholic who will not take leave unless it is something important.
He doesn't even take a day off when it's his turn.
"To treat an illness." Shen Cheng had nothing to hide from Xu Qiang.
Because Xu Qiang was also involved in that operation, he knew more than others.
Hearing this, Xu Qiang was stunned for a moment: "What disease?"
"Yeah." Shen Cheng nodded. He sat lazily on the chair and took the rifle model that Xu Qiang had placed on the table to play with.
Speaking of this, Xu Qiang was quite concerned. He took the puzzle model from Shen Cheng's hand and asked excitedly, "Is there hope?"
Shen Cheng thought of that soft voice and her clear eyes, and a smile unconsciously appeared at the corners of his lips.
"If nothing unexpected happens, this time it will be completely cured."
"That's fine. That's great."
Xu Qiang patted his shoulder and laughed, as if a big worry had been solved.
He didn't pay attention, so he didn't realize that when Shen Cheng said this, the smile in his eyes was not one of excitement and joy, but rather one with a hint of rippling charm and an indescribable subtle ambiguity.
Just like the male fox when he was about to seduce someone.
-
Here, Jiang Nianzi walked around the department store.
She was stunned when she saw the price of the sewing machine.
In this era when you can buy a big popsicle for one cent and a pound of meat for a few dimes, sewing machines are sold for more than 180 yuan.
It was simply an outrageous price. She thought it might be cheaper, but it was the cheapest one. Of course, there might be more, but they were not available in the department store.
And the tickets are hard to find.
This made her back off instantly. Forget it, why not buy a second-hand one?
Jiang Nianzi simply went out to ask around to see if there was such a second-hand market.
She was pretty and sweet-spoken. After asking an old lady, the old lady immediately and enthusiastically showed her the way. She was afraid that she couldn't hear clearly, so she took her there personally.
The old woman left only after we sent her to the trading market.
It is called a second-hand trading market, but in fact it is just a small alley that is not open to the public.
Because many things are still not allowed.
Jiang Nianzi looked at the desolate scene and felt a little disappointed.
Maybe there is really no way.
She didn't hold out much hope and went to take a look around.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she walked quickly towards an aunt.
In front of the aunt was a large thing covered with cloth, which looked like a sewing machine.
"Auntie, is this a sewing machine?" Jiang Nianzi asked.
Jiang Nianzi was wearing a snow-white winter cotton skirt, the same style as the red one.
Because the style was too novel and she was beautiful, it attracted a lot of attention when it appeared in this shady second-hand market.
The aunt looked her up and down and made a definition of Jiang Nianzi in her mind - she must be a girl from a wealthy family.
Her face immediately broke into smiles, and she raised her hand and quietly lifted a corner of the curtain to show her: "Yes, yes, it's a sewing machine, girl, do you want to buy it?"
Sewing machines are hard to come by these days, and you need money and connections to buy one.
Even if it is second-hand, there is no problem in selling it.
But the sewing machine in front of me is not only of ordinary brand, but also of shabby style.
The iron sheet was rusty and looked like it had been used for at least five or six years and had not been well cared for.
Jiang Nianzi frowned, but thought, as long as it can be used, it's fine.
"How much?" she asked.
Seeing that she was dressed like a girl from a wealthy family, the aunt immediately smiled and pointed up two fingers.
twenty?
Jiang Nianzi raised her eyebrows, thinking it was impossible.
"You plan to sell a sewing machine like this for two hundred?"
The aunt laughed and said, "Look at what you said. This is a rare thing. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it. I'm selling it for 200 yuan, and there are many people vying for it."
What the aunt didn't say was that if her sister-in-law hadn't died early, she wouldn't have been able to monopolize this thing.
Oh……
Jiang Nianzi said, "Auntie, you've been using this sewing machine for five or six years, it's so worn out, even if you can't find a ticket, it's hard to buy a new one, at most it'll cost a hundred."
If the ticket to buy a sewing machine wasn't hard to find, her old sewing machine would cost no more than fifty yuan.
It's so broken, I don't know how it got broken.
When she heard that she had bargained halfway, the auntie's face immediately turned ugly and she said in a long face: "Then you can buy it somewhere else."
If Jiang Nianzi stayed for one more minute, it would be disrespectful to the money she had worked hard to earn.
She turned and left.
Seeing her leave so decisively, the aunt was dumbfounded.
It's actually not that easy to sell this thing, because people of her class can't make any connections with rich people.
It is rare, but too expensive and many people cannot afford it.
But after thinking about it, the aunt calmed down again.
Humph, the little girl doesn't look like someone who is short of money. She must have thought that she left so easily, so she would call her back immediately.
She wasn't going to be fooled.
The aunt folded her arms and waited slowly for Jiang Nianzi to come back and bargain with her.
The posture is particularly dignified.
Even if she couldn't sell this sewing machine for two hundred, she had to sell it for at least one hundred and eighty.
As a result, no one came after waiting for a long time. The aunt regretted it so much that she should have lowered her head a little more.
Jiang Nianzi walked through all the alleys of the second-hand market, but did not come across another sewing machine.
Jiang Nianzi's personality is typical of someone who responds to soft words but not hard ones.
The eldest auntie had a very arrogant look on her face, and she would not buy anything even if she was the only one at the table.
So he walked straight down the alley.
She didn't know that because of her outstanding appearance, she had already been noticed when she walked in the alley.
A middle-aged man with a wretched appearance followed her all the way into the depths of the alley.
Going out from the end of the alley where the second-hand market is located, there is a winding alley.
It didn't take long for Jiang Nianzi to realize that someone was following her.
When they reached a deserted place, the man behind them hurried over.
Jiang Nianzi turned around.
The man smiled maliciously: "Little girl, where are you going? Do you want your uncle to take you there?"
Jiang Nianzi stood there coquettishly, without a trace of fear in her eyes, and even with a hint of coldness.
Dirty dog man.
"Where do you want to take me?"
"Well...it depends on whether you cooperate or not." He stretched out his hand towards Jiang Nianzi's face.
The little face was so white and tender that it made his heart itchy.
Jiang Nianzi's eyes turned cold. No matter what era, there are always malicious people.
Just as his hand was about to touch her face, Jiang Nianzi moved as fast as lightning, grabbed his wrist and suddenly broke it downward.
The reason why she held the wrist was because Jiang Nianzi was disgusted and didn't want to touch such a dirty person at all.
His wrists were still covered by his sleeves.
The man let out a sound like he was slaughtering a pig. Jiang Nianzi turned him over with all her strength, clamped his hands behind his back, and pressed his shoulders with one hand, pushing him against the wall.
The man didn't expect that the delicate and weak girl could be such a tough person.
"Girl, spare my life, spare my life..."
"Spare my life?" Jiang Nianzi sneered: "If I were powerless, would you ever think of sparing my life?"
The man's wrist felt like it was about to be broken.
He groaned in pain: "I, I didn't want to kill you, I just wanted to..."
"You want to flirt with me, right?" Jiang Nianzi's smile became more brilliant, and her eyes became colder.
She suddenly raised her knees and pushed hard.
This time, she couldn't get rid of her disgust and covered his mouth.
To deal with such beasts, she only wanted to destroy the basis for them to do whatever they wanted, so as to prevent future troubles!
The man nearly fainted from the pain.
He collapsed directly to the ground.
Jiang Nianzi walked past him and sneered, "Don't think that women are easy to bully. This is the end of your attempt to bully women."
After leaving the alley, Jiang Nianzi looked at the blue sky and felt it was gloomy.
Because she was in a bad mood.
This is the kind of person she hates most in her life.
Unfortunately, no matter how annoying they are, these people will always exist.
-
Jiang Nianzi and Shen Chengyue met at the door of the state-owned hotel.
Shen Cheng was afraid that Jiang Nianzi would be waiting, so he chatted with Xu Qiang for a few words and then went to the door of the state-owned hotel to wait.
After waiting for about an hour, I finally saw that beautiful figure.
Jiang Nianzi bought the two missing medicines in the clinic.
He held a large bag in each hand.
Shen Cheng stepped forward and took over naturally: "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"
"No, I'm full."
Jiang Nianzi's tone was calm, but there was no smile on her face.
Shen Chengguan is good at observing people's expressions. He has known Jiang Nianzi for a while, but he doesn't know her very well. However, she always has a smiling face, and is gentle and polite.
He has never had such a stern face and looked in a bad mood like today.
Shen Cheng's eyes flashed. What happened?
She said she didn't want to eat, but Shen Cheng didn't just ignore it.
They came from the hospital together.
She just had something to eat in the morning.
"Wait for me, get in the car first."
The car is parked nearby.
Jiang Nianzi said, "Thank you."
Shen Cheng bought a few meat buns and carried them into the car.
After getting in the car, Jiang Nianzi turned around and asked him, "Is there any water?"
Shen Cheng thought she was thirsty, so he took out a green iron kettle from the back and handed it to Jiang Nianzi.
"There's still half a bottle left. I've drunk it. If you don't mind..."
