Chapter 95: Can't Hide
After leaving the store, Lu Bin and Jiang Xian went straight upstairs, intending to take a look at other women's clothing to see if there was anything they liked.
After all, the mall is so big, you have to take a good look around.
Shop around to find the one that suits them best.
Jiang Xian bought two sets of clothes and a skirt. Lu Bin was easy to deal with. He was not picky. He would wear whatever clothes Jiang Xian picked for him. It only took him five minutes to finish a set of clothes.
Jiang Xian felt helpless and thought that this man was too casual. He didn't even care about the clothes he wore. She realized that maybe all men in the world were like this. In her previous life, her father also didn't care at all about dressing.
Jiang Xian thought secretly in her heart that if she got married in the future, she would definitely tidy up this man's wardrobe.
It goes without saying that there are not many good clothes in Lu Bin's wardrobe. For a fashion designer like her, this kind of thing is simply unbearable.
As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse.
No matter what, a person must have a few good clothes in the bottom of the closet. In case there is a formal occasion, he can't go out wearing a tattered work suit.
After they get married, she will take the initiative to tidy up Lu Bin's wardrobe.
Whether the man agreed or not, she would throw away all his tattered clothes and replace them with new ones.
The prerequisite is that they must have enough money.
If life is not going well, there is no money to buy new clothes.
So let's take it one step at a time and see what happens.
But this idea has already taken root in Jiang Xian's heart.
She thought that even if she had to buy cheap clothes, she would buy Lu Bin a few more new sets of clothes.
She couldn't let him go on like this, she really couldn't bear to see it anymore.
Jiang Xian had this idea in her mind, but she did not mention it to Lu Bin. After all, even if she didn't say it out loud, she could guess in her heart that if Lu Bin heard her proposal, he would definitely refuse it. After all, this man really didn't care about clothes.
Maybe when the time comes, after she says this and puts forward this idea, he will only say that he is a grown man and does not need to care about these things, as long as the clothes are wearable, he does not care whether they are appropriate or not.
Jiang Xian felt a headache just thinking about it.
For a moment, she didn't know what expression was on her face. Sometimes she frowned, and sometimes she looked sad.
Looking at Lu Bin, he was a little puzzled, thinking that he seemed to be in a good mood just now, how come he became like this in just a moment.
He thought Jiang Xian was too tired from walking around, so he asked:
"Why do you look so sad? Is there something you haven't bought yet? Tell me, and we'll go buy it."
"Don't feel embarrassed. If you have any requests, just ask. After all, this is only a one-time marriage, so of course you want it to be satisfying. That way, everyone will be happy."
"I see you're frowning, maybe you're tired from shopping? If that doesn't work, let's find a place and have a good rest."
"Are you hungry? If you are, let's go to the state-owned restaurant and have a meal to fill our stomachs."
Although Lu Bin was usually frugal with himself, after all, he still had to be frugal due to the situation at home, but when it came to Jiang Xian, he couldn't be stingy at all. He wished he could put all the good things in the world in front of Jiang Xian.
Now, seeing her sad and frowning face, I couldn't help wondering what kind of mood she was in.
This is what the legend says: too much concern leads to confusion.
Lu Bin felt that he, as a grown man, was a little pretentious. If, under normal circumstances, another woman made such an expression in front of him.
He would only feel that it was an eyesore, and, staying far away, he probably wouldn't even look at it for a second. However, if it were Jiang Xian, he would only feel worried in his heart, wondering what kind of emotion she was in.
He has never been in a relationship, nor has he had much contact with women.
Seeing Jiang Xian like this at this moment, I don’t know what Jiang Xian is feeling.
I can only ask carefully.
When the two of them were getting along, Lu Bin was somewhat overly cautious.
When Jiang Xian heard this and looked at Lu Bin's nervous expression, he knew that he had misunderstood.
So I just started to explain:
"I am indeed a little tired. I feel like I have been walking around all day without any rest. And then something like that happened just now. It really takes a lot of energy."
"I'm really a little hungry right now. Why don't we go to the state-owned restaurant to have a meal? It's still early and we can make it in time."
Jiang Xian thought about how Lu Bin had already spent a lot of money buying her clothes, so she felt embarrassed to ask Lu Bin to treat her to a meal at this moment, so she took the initiative to propose:
"You just bought me clothes, so now, I will treat you to a meal."
"Even though we are a couple, I can't ask you to spend the money alone. It's fair for each of you to spend half."
Lu Bin shook his head helplessly, but when he saw Jiang Xian's determined look, he was too lazy to say anything more to Jiang Xian.
At worst, after they get married, he can transfer all the money he has to Jiang Xian.
"There is no distinction between you and me between husband and wife. It is not reasonable for me to ask you to pay for dinner when we go out to eat."
"Besides, after we get married, all our family's money will be handed over to you for safekeeping. You can spend it however you want."
"From now on, I won't keep a single cent in my pocket. When the time comes, if I need to spend money when I go out, you will have to pay for it. When I don't have any pocket money, I will ask you for it. What do you think?"
Jiang Xian did not refuse this. After all, in their era, it was usually women who managed the money.
She had originally thought that Lu Bin, as a grown man of this era, would be rather corrupt in his thinking. However, she had never expected that he would actually take the initiative to say that after they got married, she would be the one to keep all the money in the family and be the one to run the household.
This really surprised Jiang Xian.
But she also accepted it with pleasure. After all, this was what she had planned in her mind.
"Then you must remember what you said. When we get married, you must not regret it."
"When you get paid every month, you will take the initiative to hand over your salary to me to manage the household. I promise that our life will become more and more prosperous."
If a man is in charge of money, there are still some risks. If the man is frugal, then it is fine. But if he is a spendthrift, earning 100 yuan a month and spending 200 yuan, then the family will not only not save a penny, but also be in debt.
From this point of view, it would be more reassuring for her to keep the money in her own hands and let her keep it.
"Don't worry. A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. I promise that you will be in charge of the family's finances from now on, and I won't lie to you."
The two talked and laughed as they arrived at the state-owned restaurant. They ordered three dishes and a soup. Although Lu Bin's family was poor, he was very generous when doing things. When it came to food and drink, he was not stingy at all.
When they were at the state-owned restaurant, it was not meal time, so there were not many people dining in the restaurant.
Basically, after the waiter saw them and took their order, it took only fifteen minutes for the dishes to be served in the kitchen.
Lu Bin is a grown man who often does physical work, so he can eat a lot.
It consumes a lot of physical energy, so when ordering food, Jiang Xian basically chose meat dishes. In fact, there is another reason for this, that is, she is a complete carnivore and does not like to eat any vegetables.
She ordered a dish of seaweed egg drop soup to relieve the greasiness. She didn't know if Lu Bin was used to it. After all, it had only been two days since they met. She had no idea what kind of food the other person liked, so she ordered randomly.
This state-owned restaurant, opened here, must cater to the general tastes of everyone in this town.
Since these are dishes that can be eaten on a daily basis, I believe Lu Bin will not be too picky.
"I don't know what you like to eat, so I just ordered a few dishes at random. I don't know if they will suit your taste."
"See if you can get used to it. If not, let's order some other dishes."
When ordering, the waiter handed the menu to Lu Bin first, but Lu Bin didn't even take it. He directly handed the menu to Jiang Xian, leaving everything to Jiang Xian to choose.
When Jiang Xian was ordering food, she was actually quite conflicted, after all, she didn't understand the two people's tastes and preferences.
When Jiang Xian was ordering food, he paid special attention to Lu Bin's thoughts and even asked Lu Bin several times what he liked to eat, but the man kept his mouth shut and just said that he would eat whatever Jiang Xian ordered, without any pickyness.
Jiang Xian felt so nervous only after the dishes were served.
Facts have proved that everything Jiang Xian thought about was completely unnecessary. He was worried that Lu Bin, a grown man, would eat the same food as he wore clothes. He was not picky at all and only cared about what he could eat.
If Lu Bin knew what Jiang Xian was thinking at this moment, he would definitely laugh out loud. You know, he doesn't care about these things at all.
If we were to say what he cares most about when it comes to eating, it would probably be whether there is enough food. After all, he is a grown man with a big appetite. What he cares most about is not the taste of the food, but whether he can eat enough.
You have to know that their family was divided very early. Both Mr. and Mrs. Lu were bedridden for a long time and could not do physical work at all. As for eating, three meals a day at home were prepared by him, a big man.
After all, their family had been divided a long time ago, and their two brothers and their sister-in-law didn't care about the affairs of their family of three at all.
Only Lu Bin can cook, and as for the taste of the food, it’s hard to describe.
Lu Bin’s idea about eating has always been that it’s enough to be able to eat. The purpose of eating is to live, not to enjoy.
He didn't have the mind or time to enjoy himself. On weekdays, he was in the factory, just dealing with things casually. Only occasionally when the factory was on holiday would he go home to cook.
What he always thinks about is whether the family has enough money to spend. If not, then next month, the medical expenses for Mr. and Mrs. Lu will become a problem. Fortunately, those hard days are over over the years.
Now the money he earns every month is not only enough to cover the expenses of medicine and medical treatment for the two elderly people in the family, but there is even some surplus every month. To put it bluntly, only the three members of his family know about this. His two brothers and sister-in-law are completely unaware of it. They just think that after buying medicine, there is not much left of the salary he earns every month.
Because of this, they all avoided the three of them and stayed away from them, for fear that one day Lu Bin would run out of money and ask them to borrow money again.
Lu Bin did not take the initiative to tell them about this, for he was afraid that his two brothers and their sisters-in-law would find out and make trouble again since he had extra money in his pocket.
He couldn't tell what his two brothers and sisters-in-law were thinking.
After all, it is better to have less trouble than more.
If he had just kept this matter a secret, he could have saved his family a lot of trouble. After all, his two sisters-in-law were not easy to deal with.
If they knew that he still had savings in his pocket, they would definitely find ways to squeeze out all the money in his pocket. After all, his two sisters-in-law have always been like this.
By making them feel that they are poor and putting an end to their thoughts like this, he can save himself a lot of trouble. But now, after all, he and Jiang Xian are already married, and he still has to explain his past clearly. He cannot hide anything from his wife.
