Seeing Bai Huirou picking out clothes, Chen Suwen didn't plan to leave so soon; she hadn't bought clothes for her daughter-in-law and grandchildren yet.
Although she initially planned to buy new clothes for Shen Wenxiu and her two daughters, she thought about it and decided to buy clothes for the whole family as well.
But she had already spent 38 yuan on a new dress for herself, so if she bought clothes for the whole family, the cost would immediately go up.
There just happened to be a sewing machine at home, which was a betrothal gift that Zhou Cunzhi bought for Xu Huixue when he got married.
Xu Huixue brought the sewing machine with her as part of her dowry after getting married. In fact, Xu Huixue herself used it most of the time.
Shen Wenxiu also knows how to use a sewing machine, but she rarely does; the original owner of this body hardly ever used one either. Having a daughter-in-law truly liberated her, and all the sewing and mending work was left to Xu Huixue.
Therefore, Xu Huixue used the sewing machine herself, and no one from the Zhou family took her "dowry".
Chen Suwen didn't think it would be too much trouble for Xu Huixue to make clothes for the whole family, so she planned to buy fabric and have her make new clothes.
Winters in Guangzhou are not long, and the weather is not very cold during the Spring Festival, so there is no need to make new clothes that are particularly thick.
She chose mostly cotton fabrics, but people of that era really liked Dacron, so she bought a whole bolt.
She bought cotton fabric for the rest, as she liked cotton clothes, her husband liked them too, and it would be best for the children to wear cotton clothes as well, so the polyester fabric could be left to those who preferred it.
"Hey pretty lady, get me a few bolts of fabric." Chen Suwen didn't want to bother two people at once. She had just bought a dress from Bai Huiya, and now she was asking her to help her get the fabric.
Bai Huiya's eyes lit up when she heard Chen Suwen's call. She told her sister to wait a moment and hurried over to greet Chen Suwen.
"Auntie, how many bolts of fabric do you want? What material? What pattern?"
Bai Huiya was indeed a professional, and quickly introduced several suitable fabrics and patterns to Chen Suwen.
When Bai Huirou saw Chen Suwen, she felt that she looked familiar, but she didn't recognize her.
After all, Guangzhou is where she has lived since she was a child, so it's not surprising that she would run into people she's met before.
She just couldn't place the woman because she thought she looked familiar.
"Huirou".
At that moment, a magnetic and pleasant voice rang out, and a tall, strong man walked steadily toward her.
Bai Huirou was surprised to hear the voice and looked up at him abruptly, "Qin Feng?"
The man was a full 1.85 meters tall, with a handsome face and sharp features. Everyone who saw him would say, "What a handsome man!"
Chen Suwen was no exception.
She likes to look at beautiful women, and of course she also likes to look at handsome men. This man named Qin Feng is really top-notch in terms of looks, figure, and temperament.
"It's me." Qin Feng walked up to Bai Huirou and nodded to her. "Here to buy clothes?"
“That dress suits you very well.” Qin Feng’s gaze fell on a certain dress, a long dress with blue and white floral patterns, which matched Bai Huirou’s temperament perfectly.
"That one is nice too."
The other pea-green dress is also very pretty and would suit Bai Huirou perfectly.
"Salesperson, please wrap these two dresses up for me, I'll take them." Qin Feng glanced at them a few times and immediately told the salesperson that he wanted to buy the two dresses.
Since he thought these two dresses would suit Bai Huirou, and he had the money to buy them, there was no need for him to hesitate; he could just buy them and give them to her.
"What are you doing?" Bai Huirou saw that he wanted to buy the dress without even blinking and wanted to stop him.
"You...you didn't buy this for me, did you?" Bai Huirou took a few deep breaths to confirm whether he had bought it for her.
Qin Feng looked at her and said, "Didn't I tell you the dress suits you perfectly? Of course I bought it for you."
"But Qin Feng, this dress is very expensive. I have no relationship with you, so you don't need to give me a dress."
These two dresses look quite expensive. Why would she accept dresses from Qin Feng, who has no relation to her?
"Am I not pursuing you? When you're pursuing someone, you have to give them gifts, right?" Qin Feng said with utmost seriousness.
Bai Huirou: "...I may pursue you, but we have no relationship right now, so it's inappropriate for me to accept gifts from you."
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow. "If I say it's suitable, then it's suitable."
Bai Huiya, on the other hand, was too embarrassed to come over and wrap up the dress, since she had said it was a gift for her sister.
If she rushed over and wrapped up the skirt so hastily, wouldn't that make her seem like she was greedy for other people's things?
That way, it will embarrass her sister and make her look like she's so vain.
But Bai Huiya wasn't the only one in the department store, and she wasn't the only salesperson at the clothing counter, so another salesperson quickly packed up the clothes.
She'd rather make money than worry about other people's grudges and feuds; it's none of her business.
"Didn't Bai Huiya's older sister get married?"
When Qin Feng said he wanted to give Bai Huirou a dress, those who knew a little about the Bai family couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
"Oh? You didn't know? Bai Huiya's brother-in-law sacrificed his life, and her sister is now a widow."
Another person who knew the inside story explained it to her.
"Widow?" Upon hearing the word "widow," the man looked down on Bai Huirou, but seeing her beautiful and charming face and her equally handsome suitors, she could only feel envy and jealousy.
"Bai Huiya's older sister is already a widow, so how come there's still such an extraordinary-looking man pursuing her?"
It was so sour it made her jealous.
It's one thing for Bai Huiya to make her jealous normally, but now that her sister is a widow, she still makes her sour.
