Fu Wenjing smiled and raised his hand to rub Su Runruan's head again, "Okay! Comrade Su Runruan, in the days to come, let's learn from each other, make progress together, and strive to make our lives better and better!

Wife, can we go in and buy something now?"

Su Ruanruan nodded heavily, "Yes!"

Su Ruanruan didn't care and didn't want it, but she really wanted to buy clothes.

The original owner's clothes were very worn out. They were three years new, three years old, and three years of mending.

There were only a few sets of clothes to begin with, and I don't know how many years I've worn them. There are patches and puddings on them. Even if the original owner had good sewing skills, these clothes are too old to look good.

It’s okay for outer clothes, but Su Ruanruan really can’t stand close-fitting clothes.

The two entered the department store, went straight to the second floor, and found the cloth counter.

Most of what is sold at this time are fabrics, there are very few ready-made clothes, and there are only a few styles, which are very expensive.

Su Ruanruan had heard about Dacron shirts and braided skirts from the older generation before she traveled through time, and now she finally saw the real thing with her own eyes.

As a piece of clothing that is popular all over the country in this era, it still makes sense.

Dacron shirts are quite stiff, and because they are made of chemical fiber fabrics, they feel smoother and whiter. Wearing them makes a person look energetic and respectable.

A braji is a skirt, and a skirt with a design.

It has a round neck, a nipped waist, a large skirt, and puff sleeves with some pleats, and comes in a variety of colors and patterns.

There are red, white, pink, yellow and green floral patterns, and some have doll collars or ruffled necklines, which look beautiful no matter how you look at them.

There is no girl who doesn't like to be pampered. Compared with the gray, blue and black tops and pants, the braid is of course more fashionable and more popular.

But to make a braid for adults, you need at least nine feet of cloth, and one foot of cloth costs fifty cents, which means one braid costs four dollars and fifty cents.

In 1970, the salary of an ordinary female worker was only 20 to 30 yuan, and an apprentice earned more than 10 yuan.

If you are single and can earn your own salary, you can grit your teeth and do one of these.

But if you have a family, or if you don’t have full control over your salary, you’ll have to save money for several months if you want to make a piece of braid.

There were two pieces of bragi hanging behind the cloth counter, one with small goose yellow floral patterns and the other with white floral patterns.

For this era, these two pieces of bragi are really good-looking. I wonder how many girls will envy me when I walk down the street wearing them.

Su Ruanruan was staring at it when she heard Fu Wenjing's voice.

"Like this? Then buy it!"

"Don't!"

Su Ruanruan quickly turned to look at Fu Wenjing, "I'm just taking a look, no need to buy this."

"You don't have to worry about not having money or tickets. I have them all. I exchanged a lot with my teammates before I came back."

As Fu Wenjing spoke, he began to search his pockets. He not only took out a thick stack of money, but also a lot of colorful bills, and placed them all on the counter.

The waiter standing behind the counter saw this scene and his eyes widened.

Su Ruanruan was also very shocked. Fu Wenjing said a lot, really a lot!

After a careful count, it was discovered that there were thirty-five feet of cloth coupons alone.

For someone of Su Ruanruan's stature, a set of spring and autumn long-sleeved trousers would take about seven feet of cloth.

If you make cotton-padded clothes in winter, separate the inner and outer parts, and use double the amount.

Summer clothes are short-sleeved, so you can use less, about five or six feet is enough.

If Su Ruanruan used all these cloth coupons to buy cloth, she could make five or six sets of clothes.

Su Ruanruan pulled Fu Wenjing's sleeve and said, "With so many cloth coupons, why not just buy them all as cloth? I can make new clothes for you and for my parents."

"No need to make it for me." Fu Wenjing refused directly, "I wear military uniforms, and at most I can make some close-fitting clothes with leftover fabrics.

You don't have to worry about your parents. I've already given mom 25 feet of cloth coupons, enough for her and dad to make new clothes. These are all for you."

Fu Wenjing originally just came back to visit his relatives and had no intention of getting married. The cloth coupons he exchanged were also prepared for his mother, Wang Maoni.

But plans could not change quickly, and they got married the day after they returned. He could only give Wang Maoni more money and exchange the cloth coupons after he returned to the army and then send them back.

After hearing what Fu Wenjing said, Su Ruanruan couldn't help but smile.

It’s not because Fu Wenjing gave her more cloth coupons, but because when Fu Wenjing did something, he could think of his mother and would not forget his wife.

Such a Fu Wenjing is definitely not a mama's boy or a henpecked man. He can balance the relationship between daughter-in-law and mother very well. He will also help Su Runruan better integrate into the Fu family and get along better with her mother-in-law Wang Maoni.

As for what the sisters-in-law of the Fu family think, it doesn’t matter.

Whether they have cloth coupons and new clothes to wear is something their men should worry about, not Fu Wenjing, their brother-in-law.

The thirty-five feet of cloth coupons were finally all used to buy cloth.

Su Ruanruan did not choose colors that were too eye-catching. She only wanted the most common colors: black, blue, gray, green, and white.

Fu Wenjing was somewhat dissatisfied, so he changed the gray to goose yellow and light pink.

"You have fair skin, so these two colors will definitely look good on you."

The salesperson smiled when she heard this, "You two just got married, right? You have a great relationship! This man really loves his wife!"

Being teased by the salesperson, Su Runrun's cheeks turned slightly red, but she couldn't hide her smile.

Thirty-five feet of cloth rolled up together is not only quite large, but also very heavy.

But this was nothing to Fu Wenjing, he carried it easily with one hand.

Compared with so much cloth, the sewing kit looks very inconspicuous and can be bought for just a few cents.

At this time, most people wore homemade cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles, and some wore straw sandals.

Of course, department stores also sell rubber-soled shoes, sneakers, leather shoes, and those plastic sandals that cost two dollars a pair.

Fu Wenjing seemed to have turned into a money-giving boy, insisting on buying two pairs of every kind of shoes for Su Ruanruan. However, Su Ruanruan held him back and he only bought a pair of cloth shoes with rubber soles and a pair of white sneakers in the end.

The two pairs of shoes cost eight dollars in total, which is really not cheap.

However, compared with the things on the first floor, the clothes and daily necessities on the second floor are still relatively cheap.

After all, the first floor sells bicycles, watches, sewing machines, radios, flashlights, electric fans, etc.

Among these things, the cheapest is the flashlight.

The flashlights at that time were silver iron flashlights, which cost three dollars and twenty cents each.

The flashlight is not expensive, but the batteries are expensive!

A flashlight needs to have two large batteries at a time. One battery costs 26 cents, so two batteries cost 52 cents, and they won't last long.
