After they bought clothes, Sheng Zhiyi took Mu Yunxi to the place where watches were sold.
"Xixi, you can choose a watch too. I brought a watch ticket, and it will expire soon if I don't use it."
Mu Yunxi was speechless. He was just trying to appease a child. How could watch tickets expire in this era? If he was willing to sell the tickets, who knows how many people would rush to buy them.
Mu Yunxi already had a watch and didn't want him to waste the money, so she refused.
"But I already have a watch. I can't wear it that much even if I buy another one. How about buying you a watch for yourself?"
Sheng Zhiyi smiled dotingly, "You already have a watch, so you can buy another one. Besides, your previous watch was bought for you by your parents, but this one is a gift from your partner, so it's different."
"Come on, let's not waste the watch ticket. Go and pick out the style you like."
The salesperson at the watch counter knew from their demeanor that they were well-off and immediately greeted them warmly, "Are you buying watches for your significant other? Take a look at these styles, they're all very nice. The ones on the left are imported watches, and the ones on the right are new arrivals from Hai City, just arrived yesterday. Take a look and see if there's anything you like. I'll show you some to try."
"Hurry up and see if there is a style you like. Ask her to take it out for you to try on." Seeing that his girlfriend was standing still, Sheng Zhiyi hurriedly urged.
Mu Yunxi still wanted to refuse, but seeing Sheng Zhiyi's insistence, she had to compromise in the end.
After choosing from many options, she finally settled on a classic women's mechanical watch from the Plum brand. The style wasn't new, but it was very attractive, and Mu Yunxi quite liked it.
But I have to say that the price of this watch is really a bit high, and watches of this era are really expensive.
Seeing that she had picked out a watch she liked, Sheng Zhiyi was also very happy: "Xixi, this watch looks really good on you. Don't take off such a beautiful watch. Just wear it on your wrist all the time."
Mu Yunxi saw through his little thoughts at a glance, but she was also happy to go along with him: "Okay, then don't take it off."
Sheng Zhiyi, whose little wish was satisfied, smiled from ear to ear and readily handed the money and ticket needed to buy the watch to the salesperson.
After buying the watch, Sheng Zhiyi took Mu Yunxi away from the watch sales floor with satisfaction.
Mu Yunxi was a little confused. Why did Sheng Zhiyi seem happier than if he had bought the watch himself even though it was clearly a watch he bought for her?
Could it be that he has some hidden trait that he's unaware of? Like maybe he enjoys feeding people? Or buying things for others? …………………
Mu Yunxi glanced at Sheng Zhiyi secretly, and a lot of wild thoughts ran through her head.
The two of them walked around the department store together. Sheng Zhiyi wanted to buy anything he thought was suitable for Mu Yunxi. He also bought a lot of snacks, such as cakes, fried fruits, White Rabbit candies, glutinous rice sticks, rice crisps, melon seeds, nuts, peanut crisps...
It was not until both of their hands were full of things and they could no longer carry any more that Sheng Zhiyi finally stopped.
Mu Yunxi used to only know that women loved to go shopping, love shopping, and love buying random things.
But she never expected that her partner was also a shopaholic.
Even I can't match her shopping desire.
After buying so many things, it was inconvenient to continue shopping, so the two of them prepared to go home.
Sheng Zhiyi put all the things he bought on the front and crossbar of the bicycle, then rode the bicycle with Mu Yunxi back to Yanshan Village.
However, in a corner that neither Sheng Zhiyi nor Mu Yunxi noticed, a young man was staring at Mu Yunxi's direction with eyes full of shock and disbelief. He did not look away until Mu Yunxi's figure gradually went away and even disappeared.
As soon as Sheng Zhiyi and Mu Yunxi entered the village, the villagers who saw them riding bicycles began to gather together and discuss.
"Oh, isn't that Sheng Zhiqing and Mu Zhiqing? Did they buy bicycles?"
"These educated youth are really rich! They can easily afford a bicycle. Even if we work in the fields our whole lives, we may not be able to afford one."
: "Yeah, that big bicycle must cost several hundred!"
"I know. That's a Phoenix brand bicycle. They sell it at the Red Star Commune supply and marketing cooperative. It costs over 200 yuan, and you need a bicycle ticket to buy it."
"Wow, this bicycle is so expensive! We can barely save a few dollars working in the fields all year round. If we want to buy a bicycle, we'll have to go without food and drink for several years to be able to afford it."
"That's not true. In our entire village, only the captain's family has a bicycle. And that's because his son is a successful soldier in the army and sends his allowance back every month, so he can afford it."
"That bicycle is really fashionable. If I had one at home, the girls who want to come to my house to marry me would definitely break down the threshold of my house." At this time, a dark, thin, short boy fantasized with a silly smile on his face.
This statement caused everyone to burst into laughter.
An old lady who was laughing so hard that she was out of breath said to the young man, "Even if you buy a bicycle, those girls will still look down on you. Why don't you go look in the mirror and see what you look like? Which girl would be so blind as to marry you and even knock on your door... Hahahaha..."
After the aunt finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter, but without exception, they were all laughing at the young man for overestimating his own abilities and having no self-awareness at all.
