Jiang Wenwan responded with a hearty laugh.
"Yes, we are all military wives."
I'm here in Guangzhou to make some purchases today.
I've heard that people in Guangzhou dress quite fashionably, and I think it looks pretty good on me too!
They don't even have the same bright and beautiful style as us military wives stationed on the islands!
Look at these jeans I'm wearing. This denim material is something you only find overseas.
We don't have any like this in China!
These pants cost 70 yuan, that's too expensive, it breaks my heart.
But my husband said that following him in the military is too hard, and I should be dressed nicely.
I thought this man was just good at talking.
Unexpectedly, they dressed up nicely just because I told them to.
So they bought me a pair of jeans.

"It's not even as good-looking as mine!"

"Oh my, these pants cost 70 yuan? I saw them over there and bought them for only 60 yuan."
Jiang Wenwan looked at the woman who spoke with a surprised expression. How could it be 60 yuan?
They said it's a fixed price of 70 yuan, and it won't be cheaper.
"Then you've probably been tricked. There are two stores selling these jeans in that market over there."
I went to see one yesterday that cost 60 yuan.
I thought it was too expensive and didn't buy it, but I didn't expect it to be even more expensive here.
Those sour-tongued women immediately looked at the woman who had spoken.
"Really?
There's also one at number 60. Let's go check where it is.
"Yes, yes, let's go and see where it is."
