Chapter 12: Buying Wedding Supplies
Jiang Xian told Lu Bin his thoughts:
"I think we should just buy some basic necessities first."
"It's like bed sheets, quilt covers, pillowcases, washbasins, soap and towels."
"As for the rest, we don't really understand either. Let's go back and ask the old people in the village what we should buy, and then we can buy them slowly."
After Jiang Xian finished speaking, he looked up at Lu Bin. There was a big difference in height between them.
When they stood together, Jiang Xian needed to look up at him.
Because the distance was close enough, Jiang Xian could even see the pores on the man's face.
She couldn't help but admire in her heart that this man had such good skin, without even a blackhead, and his pores were not large. His skin was much more delicate than her skin in her previous life.
His skin color is just the right shade of bronze, somewhere between black and white, and coupled with his strong facial features, he is simply the best among men.
Jiang Xian thought to herself, she really got lucky, she could marry such a good man just after traveling through time.
It's a blessing in disguise.
Jiang Xian stared at Lu Bin's face again and again, and couldn't help but become obsessed with him.
It wasn't until Lu Bin responded to her that she reacted.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
"Let's just take a look around and buy something if we find something suitable."
After Jiang Xian heard what Lu Bin said, he finally moved his eyes away from his face.
hey-hey.
It's a bit embarrassing.
She actually stared at Lu Bin and was obsessed with him for such a long time.
How embarrassing.
Jiang Xian shook his head and thought to himself, I have traveled through time and space in a book, why am I becoming more and more unfocused?
"Okay, let's go shopping first."
After Jiang Xian said this, he pulled Lu Bin and started shopping in the department store.
Both of them were novices, so they were somewhat confused when they were walking around.
Jiang Xian, in particular, looked at the objects in the department store that were full of a sense of age, and she found each one of them very rare.
These were things she had never seen before.
So she touched left and right, wanting to buy everything she saw.
But I held back.
Because the economy does not allow it.
Buy something practical.
All of Jiang Xian’s shopping experience in his previous life came from online shopping, and he had basically never been to a physical store.
After seeing the atmosphere inside the department store, she discovered that the shopping experience in physical stores seemed to be quite good as well.
You can also touch the actual item you want to buy and feel its texture and quality.
She first took Lu Bin to look at the sheets and quilt covers.
They were received by an aunt in her fifties. As soon as she saw the two of them, she guessed that they were going to get married.
Then, the aunt recommended to Jiang Xian the best-selling bed sheet in their store.
The pure cotton fabric is printed with a pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water. The bright red color is so festive.
Jiang Xian touched it and his eyes lit up instantly.
The quality is not generally good.
Jiang Xian bought it without hesitation. In addition, she also bought a set of pillowcases and a pair of pillowcases.
It cost more than thirty dollars in total, and it hurt a bit.
But on second thought, to be honest, I'm already frugal enough. After all, I'll only get married once in my life.
So, you still have to buy something good.
After buying this big item, what's left are just some small miscellaneous items.
Toothpaste and toothbrush, a red washbasin, a red towel, red socks, and a red double happiness window decoration.
Each one was carefully selected by Jiang Xian.
Lu Bin was standing behind her and did not spoil her fun. Every time Jiang Xian was struggling between two items of the same category, she would ask Lu Bin, and he would always give her a good suggestion.
Very patient and not impatient.
Even though Jiang Xian procrastinated for a long time, he did not show any dissatisfaction on his face. He just stood silently behind Jiang Xian, paid the money, and acted as a bag carrier.
After buying everything.
Lu Bin saw that it was almost time.
So, I suggested leaving here first, going to the photo studio to pick up photos, and then register.
Jiang Xian naturally agreed, but before leaving, she suggested to Lu Bin that they go to the supply and marketing cooperative to take a look.
She wanted to buy some food or something to give to Lu Bin's parents. After all, she was about to get married to Lu Bin.
After becoming a legal couple, it is natural for them to meet their parents-in-law.
As the old saying goes, an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law. Since they are going to be a family, she still has to visit them. She can't go empty-handed and make people laugh at her.
Even if the original owner has no father or mother, he must not lose his manners.
When Lu Bin heard Jiang Xian say that he wanted to visit his home, he had no objection. After all, marriage was a big deal, and they had to sit down and discuss the wedding date and the amount of the bride price together.
Also, they were too impulsive in the beginning. Jiang Xian was an educated youth who went to the countryside, and her parents lived far away in the provincial capital. If they were to get married, they would definitely have to inform her parents.
He didn't know the situation of Jiang Xian's family, so he could only take it slowly, step by step.
However, when he heard that Jiang Xian was going to buy something for his parents.
The man frowned, feeling that there was no need to be so polite.
There is no need to waste this money. His family has everything they need. It will be good enough as long as Jiang Xianren arrives.
So, he immediately spoke:
"You can just go there, you don't need to bring anything."
According to the old couple in the family's expectations for their daughter-in-law, they are afraid that after seeing Jiang Xian, her illness will be cured by half.
No one cared whether she brought anything or not.
Jiang Xian shook her head after hearing this. She insisted on buying it:
"You don't understand. This is basic etiquette. It's my first time visiting you. I can't be so rude."
After she finished speaking, seeing that Lu Bin was still reluctant, she simply pulled him aside and took him to the supply and marketing cooperative inside the department store.
Jiang Xian thought about bringing something for Lu Bin's parents, but after looking around, he found that in this era, the food suitable for buying for the elderly was too few and too monotonous.
After picking for a long time, Jiang Xian finally bought two bottles of canned yellow peaches, and also added two pounds of brown sugar and two pounds of peach cakes.
In this era, it can be considered a very impressive item.
When it was time to pay, Lu Bin was about to pay, but was stopped by Jiang Xian:
"What's the matter with you paying?"
"I bought this for your parents. It's a token of my love. Don't fight with me for it."
As for Lu Bin, he just felt that since the two of them were about to get their marriage certificate, there was no need to divide the finances so clearly.
If a couple were to settle accounts openly, it would seem a little too distant.
But Jiang Xian insisted on paying for it herself, and Lu Bin couldn't persuade her, so he had to go with her in the end.
After buying everything, the two of them went to the photo studio to pick up the photos, carrying large and small bags.
