No, that's absolutely impossible.
How could someone like Zhao Qing genuinely want to reclaim the red dates? Or perhaps Zhao Qing discovered that their family was actually quite wealthy, and therefore wanted to use the red dates to make money? Hmm, that's somewhat possible.
Ning Hong spent several days in Beijing but found no useful clues.
But the more he couldn't find it, the more worried he became.
There must be something wrong with it; otherwise, how could it be hidden so well?
On the other side, Ning Hongzao touched the remittance certificates in her handbag, feeling somewhat excited.
Her brother's birthday is coming soon, and she wants to buy him a gift.
She had gone shopping earlier but hadn't seen any interesting gifts. Coincidentally, her brother had given her a stack of remittance certificates before he left, so she came here to take a look.
Although the remittance certificates were given by her brother, she had saved the money herself. She was sure her brother would be very happy.
She browsed through the shops one by one. To be honest, over the years, her brother had bought her a lot of things, all of them high-quality, which had greatly improved her taste.
Her gaze shifted past a watch shop, and then she was drawn to an imported watch. This one looked pretty good; just like her brother had said, high-end, classy, and sophisticated.
"Comrade, could I take a look at this watch?"
"This form costs 450, and it also requires a lot of remittance certificates. I'd better not look at it. It's too much trouble for me to take it out." The woman sitting at the counter was knitting a sweater. When she heard Ning Hongzao's words, she raised her eyelids and glanced at her from head to toe.
Ning Hongzao usually wears fairly fashionable clothes at school, and Ning Hongze usually gets them for her.
However, when she wasn't in school, she usually wore a cotton-padded jacket made by her grandmother and a cloth bag sewn by her father. No matter how you looked at it, she looked like a country bumpkin.
Such a person actually came to this Overseas Chinese Shopping Mall.
They probably just came to take a look.
She's seen plenty of people like that; when she goes back to the village, she can brag about it.
"Comrade, may I take it out and have a look?"
"What are you looking at? You can't afford it anyway."
"What kind of attitude is this? Is this how you serve the people?" Ning Hongzao was annoyed, and her delicate brows furrowed.
"I'm happy to, so what? A young girl like you, so vain, what's wrong with just looking?" The saleswoman changed her posture and continued knitting.
In her opinion, this girl definitely couldn't afford it.
Serving her is a waste of time; I'd rather knit a sweater for a while longer.
"Hey, lady, you're here too." Seeing that the sales clerk still refused to help, Ning Hongzao sighed and prepared to walk to another counter.
Just then, a joyful male voice rang out beside her.
She looked up and was shocked to see that it was the man she had met in Tiananmen Square that day, along with his several followers.
"You're here to buy a watch?"
Luo Yu asked excitedly.
He really wanted to get to know this girl when he first met her, but unfortunately, all the girls around him were holding him back. That's why he missed out on the girl he liked. He hoped that he could meet her again someday, and it seems that God heard his prayers. He met her again.
"Yes, my brother's birthday is coming up soon, and I want to buy him a watch."
"Oh dear, you've gone the wrong way. If you're buying it for your brother, you should turn the corner and go to the other side. The watches there are much cheaper," Zhao Yun scoffed.
This woman is so ungrateful! How did she end up at the Qiaohui Shopping Mall? Can she even afford it?
Forget about affording it, does she even have remittance certificates?
“You need remittance certificates to buy things here, do you have any?” Zhao Yun asked. Luo Yu glared at her, then turned back and asked softly, “If you don’t have any, I have some here, I can buy one for you.”
"No."
"Oh my, being good-looking is really an advantage. Look at you, it hasn't been that long and you've already found someone to buy you a watch," the saleswoman sneered.
On the surface, they were praising Ning Hongzao for her good looks, but in reality, they were implying that she was selling her body.
Ning Hongzao was so angry by what this person said that her face turned red.
She took a deep breath and turned to a counter across the street.
"Comrade, at your service."
This counter is also a watch counter; the brands are different, but the prices are almost the same.
Standing in front of the counter was a young woman.
She has a gentle appearance and a smile in her eyes.
It's so appealing that it makes you feel good at first glance.
"I want to buy a watch for my brother."
"Oh dear, does she think she can buy a watch just by changing the counter?" Zhao Yun laughed even harder. "Xiangling, look at this world, there are always people who overestimate themselves."
A couple of days ago, she was dressed quite well in the square, but look at what she's wearing today.
This brightly colored floral cotton-padded jacket is absolutely hilarious.
Ning Hongzao glanced at her and took out a stack of remittance certificates from her cloth bag. "Comrade, I have about five hundred remittance certificates." She then took out a small banyan tree-shaped piggy bank from her pocket. This piggy bank was bought for her by her brother. She didn't know where he bought it from, but it was quite exquisite.
Ning Hongzao took out her key and unlocked the small lock on the piggy bank, revealing a stack of ten-yuan notes and some smaller bills. "There's about a thousand yuan in here. What kind of watch can I buy with that?"
