Chapter 399 Those Neighbors (2/2)



That bowl of meatballs was truly substantial; all the other women came empty-handed, but she alone filled her bowl to the brim with meatballs.

Putting aside his temper, his style of doing things is acceptable.

There weren't many pedestrians on the road during the Spring Festival. The two of them didn't take a car or ride a bicycle, but walked side by side. At this time, there weren't many couples or even married couples holding hands on the road. Everyone was quite reserved, and they felt embarrassed if their hands touched.

The military area was quite a distance from the department store, and the two walked for a long time. They weren't bored along the way, though. Lu Yunzhou asked about her hot pot restaurant and pastry shop, which she had already made very successful in just half a month.

Upon arriving at the department store, the two headed straight for the snack section.

"We can just get some pastries from the shop later, and they also have cooked food," Qiao Wanyue stopped Lu Yunzhou from buying pastries.

Lu Yunzhou chose some melon seeds and peanuts. Everyone in the compound sees each other all the time. Before the New Year, red envelopes are given to people with children. Even if you don't have children, you still have to give red envelopes to acquaintances.

I ordered ten catties of melon seeds, ten catties of sugar, and ten catties of small biscuits. At this time, most of the sugar was fruit candy and milk candy, as well as some regional flavored candies. I ordered a little of each, and the price was the same. The colorful candies piled together looked quite nice.

After packing up the snacks, they went to the living area.

Before long, Lu Yunzhou's hands were full of bags and packages. He went to the furniture section, where they could deliver to the military area. He also had them deliver all the bags and packages there.

I paid a few dollars more than I should have.

The two continued strolling around.

They spent the whole morning strolling around, and around noon, the two ate lunch before heading back.

The furniture delivery team had arrived at the door in their truck, and a large crowd had gathered around it.

At this time, there was less entertainment available, and the children were very curious about the vehicles, peeking inside while the adults strained their necks to see what they had bought.

The Lu family is really wasteful.

Lu Yunzhou and Qiao Wanyue strolled back.

"Bring them inside." A washing machine and a refrigerator.

Lu Yunzhou hadn't bought any before, but when he came back, he found that it was still too cold to wash clothes in winter. He wasn't short of money, and the washing machines and refrigerators in the mall didn't require coupons, but they were quite expensive and ordinary families couldn't afford them.

Lu Yunzhou bought one directly.

"Yunzhou, is this yours?" a woman asked.

Can such a big thing really clean clothes?

Lu Yunzhou nodded good-naturedly.

"Your wife is lazy too. Why waste the money? She can just rub it herself," the women said bluntly.

She had just secretly asked, and the washing machine was a Swan brand, costing over seven hundred yuan. Seven hundred yuan could buy a dozen wives in their village, enough for a family to spend for several years. Lu Yunzhou's wife was too extravagant.

Lu Yunzhou frowned, his tone sharp, "Sister-in-law, you're meddling."

His tone suddenly turned cold.

Although Lu Yunzhou usually had little expression, he was always quite gentle. He would ask and answer the questions his wives asked. Compared to those arrogant officers, Lu Yunzhou was not pretentious in front of them. Lu Yunzhou rose through the ranks quickly, and for a time, his wives even regarded him as a soldier under their husbands.

He was suddenly warned and his whole body stiffened.

Only then did they realize that the person standing in front of them was no longer the Lu Yunzhou they knew before; it was now the deputy division commander of the Third District.

They don't put on airs.

It doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
