Chapter 101 Fashionable Clothes
It was Lu Xiang’s first time to be an official, and the Fu family was even more excited than she was.
Fu Qinhui also said he would buy her clothes.
The next day, the two of them went to the supply and marketing cooperative together. There were two sets of ready-made clothes in the cooperative, and the prices were relatively high. Everyone had seen them when passing by. They heard that these were fashionable ready-made clothes imported from Shanghai.
Lu Xiang took a look and saw one set was evergreen and the other was red. Both had tops and hip-hugging, knee-length skirts. If she wore a pair of cowhide high heels underneath, she would really look like an 80s magazine girl.
The salesperson at the supply and marketing cooperative knew the couple well and said with a smile, "I've always said that Miss Lu Xiang is pretty and should dress up more!"
The people around laughed and said, "She's so beautiful even without makeup. Once she does, she outshines us." Now everyone is really impressed by Lu Xiang.
I didn’t know her cooking was so delicious before. Ever since I ate the duck neck, I’ve almost become Lu Xiang’s little fan girl.
There were not many people in the supply and marketing cooperative. One of the women who had a crush on Fu Qinhui was later transferred to another position. After she left, everyone became more harmonious.
The salesperson asked Lu Xiang to try both pieces of clothing.
These clothes are hung in the window, and ordinary people are not allowed to touch them.
Lu Xiang tried them on and found that they both looked good. The blue one was dignified and majestic, while the red one was playful and cute.
Fu Qinhui watched from the side and said, "Then buy them all!"
The sales clerks were a little envious. This kind of clothes was priced at 25 yuan per piece, and even if you bought it internally, it would cost 15 yuan.
They also like nice-looking clothes. Only Shanghai can produce such beautiful styles, with slim waists and hips, showing off women's exquisite curves to the fullest.
But they were reluctant to buy it. Now they see Fu Qinhui being so generous to his wife, they are extremely envious.
But Lu Xiang only bought the blue one. The red one was too eye-catching and she really couldn't wear it out unless there was an important occasion.
Lu Xiang decided to buy only one blue one, and then to tear off two feet of blue cloth to make two pairs of blue trousers.
This way you can match it with this blue top. In the future, if you want to match it with pants, you can wear pants, and if you want to match it with a skirt, you can wear a skirt.
Wear one outfit two ways.
But Lu Xiang didn't know how to make clothes at all. The salesperson said, "My brother-in-law can make them. He's been a tailor apprentice in another city for five years. He only charged you one dollar for the workmanship. It would cost at least two or three dollars outside!"
The salesperson's clothes and pants were all handed over to her brother-in-law, whose craftsmanship was quite good. She had already brought in many repeat customers for her brother-in-law.
Lu Xiang asked, "Wouldn't this be taking advantage of you?"
The salesperson said, "It's okay. My brother-in-law just returned from studying, so it's a good opportunity to attract new customers!"
Only then did Lu Xiang feel at ease to hand over the two pairs of pants to her to make, and after measuring the sizes, he gave them to the salesperson.
After buying a set of clothes, Fu Qinhui took her to buy a pair of leather shoes. To buy leather shoes, they had to go to a state-owned store.
The supply and marketing cooperatives didn't have leather shoes, and the small leather shoes in the state-owned stores were very expensive, costing at least twenty bucks.
Lu Xiang was a little reluctant to spend money, but she had to wear leather shoes with a skirt, otherwise it would look out of place and ugly.
Lu Xiang made up her mind. She still had fifty yuan in her pocket, so she might as well buy it. She wouldn't buy it all the time.
After I got there, I tried on two pairs and finally decided on a pair of brown leather shoes.
This type of leather shoes is a classic style and will not be out of style even after 20 years. It turns out that pure leather shoes are comfortable to wear.
After Lu Xiang finished her shopping, Fu Qinhui went over to pay.
Lu Xiang asked, "Where does your money come from?" After deducting the money he handed over to the government from the little money he earned every month, there was very little left for him.
Is it private money?
Fu Qinhui saw that Lu Xiang was still lost in thought and said, "Borrowed it from my mother."
He had never spoken to his mother before; this was the first time. Xiao Cailian doted on her youngest son, and with the added bonus of duck necks as a regular income, she became more generous.
He took several dozen dollars specifically and said he didn't want it, so he gave the money to Fu Qinhui.
Now that Lu Xiang was at the store, she was reluctant to leave. She bought a shirt for Fu Qinhui. It was true, he was a college student, and he had a scholarly air about him. Putting on a white shirt, he looked so handsome that it was hard to look away.
Fu Qinhui took a look at the price, which was twenty yuan, and said, "No need to buy it, I can wear anything."
Lu Xiang said: "I like it, wear it for me to see!"
He looks so attractive in a white shirt.
Fu Qinhui had never heard such soft words before, and his ears suddenly turned red.
Lu Xiang didn't expect that he was even more shy than herself. She looked at his ears from time to time. Fu Qinhui got angry and pinched Lu Xiang's ears.
Lu Xiang blushed now: "Don't do this, there are always people watching outside!"
The two handsome men and beautiful women are attractive enough, and it looks even more inappropriate to see them fighting and playing around outside.
Fu Qinhui was most afraid of being seen by others. He said, "You are my wife." There was a rare domineering tone in his voice.
After they bought clothes, Lu Xiang returned to the village, and Fu Qinhui continued to work here.
As soon as I got back, I was surrounded by several sisters-in-law.
"What clothes did you buy?"
"Let me see!"
Lu Xiang took the clothes out and they took turns looking at them. They had never worn such fine clothes in their lives. Then they said with some longing, "The material of this dress is so fine and smooth, and the shape is so perfect."
This dress was displayed in the supply and marketing cooperative and everyone could see it. They had also imagined what they would look like wearing this dress. Now, seeing it, they couldn't let it go and caressed it.
Just like looking at luxury goods.
The three sisters-in-law have different personalities, but as women they all love beauty.
Mrs. Fu San spoke first: "After I pay back Mom's debt, I'll buy one too!" Then I'll have a dozen yuan a month, and if I save a little, I can buy this nice dress. A good dress can last for more than 20 years."
The second sister-in-law said, "Let's go together." She usually didn't want to eat or wear things, but now she was tempted by the nice things.
The two of them also persuaded their sister-in-law to go buy it together.
The eldest sister-in-law said, "I won't buy it!"
She has many children and many expenses, so she is reluctant to spend money on herself.
The second and third sisters-in-law are united in their stance: "Women have to love dressing up, otherwise men won't even look at them!"
The eldest sister-in-law was embarrassed by what they said: "You are already an old couple, what are you still looking at each other!"
The third sister-in-law said righteously: "That's different. Take a few more glances. If you have another little boy in the future, Mom will be so happy! We are also making a contribution to the old Fu family."
After a lot of discussion, the three of them finally decided to go buy it together, and Lu Xiang would accompany them.
Xiao Cailian was also vain. Seeing that Lu Xiang had bought such expensive clothes, she quickly asked her to put on the new clothes and accompanied her for a walk around the village.
As expected, as soon as I went out, many people asked me, "Isn't this clothing from the supply and marketing cooperative? It's very expensive!"
Xiao Cailian said, "My son bought it for me. A young wife should wear something nice!"
The person next to him laughed and said, "You're still dressing up. Aren't you afraid she'll run away with someone else?"
Xiao Cailian said, "Who are you running with? My son is a college student."
The people around him said that this made sense and no one was more powerful than Fu Qinhui.
He started praising Lu Xiang again.
