As the saying goes, money cannot buy happiness.
Qiu Yuling could get a general idea from Li Qingtong's few words.
It was just a matter that hadn't even been decided yet, and she was too busy to take care of it right now, and she had no right to intervene, so she could only put it aside for now.
Li Qingtong deliberately interrupted and called Qiu Yuling to go to the second floor to look at the sewing machine.
When they went up, the last one had just been snatched away. Li Qingtong shamelessly asked the saleswoman if there were any sewing machines left.
"Who are you calling sister with your unshaven beard? Call her comrade!" Before he could even ask the question, Li Qingtong was still scolded back. It was obvious that this was how his niece acted.
Wow, he’s so successful!
Faced with the salesperson's cold stare, Qiu Yuling had no choice but to shamelessly make amends, "Salesperson, my uncle is getting married and wants to buy a sewing machine for the bride. He's been waiting for a long time, and if he doesn't buy one soon, the bride will be snatched away."
"You little girl, you have to call me auntie, understand? My dolls are as big as you."
"Ah? You have a doll this big? I can't tell at all, you look about the same size as my sister!" Qiu Yuling was so surprised that the salesperson was amused.
Tell her that another batch will arrive the day after tomorrow, but the quantity is limited, so she should come early.
"Thank you, big sister. Oh no, thank you, beautiful auntie! We'll come the day after tomorrow when the door opens." The saleswoman who had just looked at Li Qingtong with disgust, now waved her hand as if she was saying goodbye to a relative.
"Hiss~, I'm a few months younger than your big brother, why can't I call you sister?"
Qiu Yuling resisted the urge to complain and examined Li Qingtong carefully. "Fourth uncle, why do you have a beard? It looks so weird and sloppy. If someone didn't know you, they would think you were my dad."
Li Qingtong was surprised and touched his chin. Was he really that old? Didn't Xifen insist that he was older than him and it was inappropriate? Didn't he deliberately look older to please his sweetheart? Was he really too old?
"Fourth uncle, a man's maturity lies in his mind, not in his appearance or looks, do you understand?" Quickly tidy up. She thought he had been suffering recently and ended up like this. It turned out that he was deliberately making himself look ugly.
"Well, what you said makes sense. I'll go back and fix it."
Qiu Yuling went back to the first floor and bought her uncle a razor. What was wrong with being a sunny young man? He had to pretend to be a rough guy.
Li Qingtong secretly bought a hairband and quietly put it in her trouser pocket. The two of them also bought some commonly used household items, such as elastic bands, buttons and so on.
Qiu Yuling also bought two large tweezers for her grandmother to fix the hair at the back of the head. Her grandmother's tweezers are almost broken and may stop working completely one day.
"Fourth Uncle, do you have anything else to buy?"
"No, let's go out for dinner, then go back and lie down. You have an exam tomorrow."
"become!"
When going out with Li Qingtong, let’s not talk about other things for now, he never spoils the fun when it comes to dining.
The two of them ordered a big plate of chicken and two servings of white-skin wide noodles. Li Qingtong felt that his stomach might still have room, so the two of them exchanged glances and ordered another serving of braised hairtail fish.
After eating all of this, she said, "Yuling, what do you think of the chef's hands? How is he so good at cooking? I really want to be the chef's kitchen helper. Just smelling this smell every day can make me eat two more bowls of rice."
Qiu Yuling ate quickly and held her chin while watching her uncle eat. It was really more delicious than any food show she had seen in her later life. He was really eating.
She was so greedy that she would pick up a piece of food with her chopsticks from time to time. Before she knew it, she had eaten too much. This time she was really full, to the point of almost vomiting.
She urgently exchanged for a box of digestive pills, which were big and round, and in her uncle's words, looked like donkey dung balls.
"Eat quickly, it will help digestion, otherwise it will be uncomfortable to lie down."
"Why should I digest it? I'll be hungry again soon, and my meal would have been in vain." Li Qingtong teased Qiu Yuling nonchalantly.
Finally, when Qiu Yuling could no longer bear it, she threw it into the air, opened her mouth to catch it, chewed it, and swallowed it. "Mmm, delicious, give me another one!"
Qiu Yuling: ...
Her fourth uncle was the most mischievous adult she had ever met, always acting like a child who had never grown up.
With Li Qingtong's help, the two of them finished the digestive pills as dessert after the meal!
"Oh no, this is too effective! My stomach hurts. Go faster! I need to go to the toilet!"
Qiu Yuling didn't believe it. She thought the food she was taking was for digestion, not a laxative, but she still quickened her pace.
"You study, Fourth Uncle, take a nap. Otherwise, I'll be awake and talk to you, which will delay your studies."
A few minutes after he finished speaking, a deafening snoring sound came from under the quilt covering his head!
Qiu Yuling looked up at the sky speechlessly. She was more like the parent who took her child out!
The result was that the next day, Qiu Yuling had a pair of lifeless and cross-eyed eyes, staring at Li Qingtong with resentment. She endured the foot odor, but the snoring was as loud as thunder in her ears. She hardly slept a wink all night!!!
"Hey hey! Xiao Yuling, are you okay? Come on, pinch your uncle twice and you'll feel better."
"Why should I vent my anger? Stop bothering me, or you'll be late for the exam!" Qiu Yuling took advantage of Li Qingtong going to the toilet and changed to the same pill she and Qiu Dashu took before the exam, the [Refreshing Pill]!
This fucked up life, there is no link that does not require cheating, but what can be done? Who let her have the conditions!
This test lasted from morning to night.
From 8:00 to 10:00 in the morning, I took math. From 10:30 to 1:00, I took Chinese. There was an hour for lunch. Then from 2:00 to 4:00, I took physics and chemistry. From 4:30 to 6:10, I took politics. After that, I had dinner. The last exam was from 7:30 to 9:10, which was a foreign language...
After coming out of the examination room, no student was not exhausted.
Qiu Yuling realized that this exam not only tests learning ability, but also endurance and willpower!
To stand out in such a harsh examination environment is truly outstanding!
She had been forced to stay up all night the day before, and had been working hard with high concentration all day today. She no longer had the energy to hold on at night.
She only discussed it with her fourth uncle and asked him to wait for her to go to bed first. He could only go to sleep after she fell asleep. She didn't know whether Li Qingtong didn't sleep well at night or she slept too deeply, but that night, she never heard the terrifying sound of the chainsaw again.
"Fourth uncle, wake up quickly, sewing machine!"
"Haven't we already grabbed it? Why are we still grabbing it?" Li Qingtong rubbed his eyes and sat up. He had been grabbing it all night yesterday. As soon as he climbed up, he asked the people behind him to pull him away. As soon as he climbed up, he asked people to pull him away again.
The more setbacks he faced, the braver he became, and the braver he became, the more frustrated he became. Right now, he still has pain in his hips and elbows.
"What are you trying to rob? Fourth uncle, you must be dreaming."
It was like a dream, he got up early in the morning and sat on the doorstep of the department store. The northwest wind was blowing hard, and not only did his head hurt, but even his face felt numb!
