Zhou Xiaoye ultimately couldn't resist Li Weidong's insistence and went on the date with him.
However, to be honest, she herself was reluctant to miss this rare opportunity.
If you think about it carefully, it has been several months since the two got engaged, but they have hardly had any time alone together.
What a coincidence!
Li Weidong held her hand as they walked through the crowd, feeling an immense sense of satisfaction.
My little wife is always so shy.
Zhou Xiaoye has been raised in the Li family for so long, and she has not only grown tall and slender, but even her hands, which were originally rough and full of wounds, have become much whiter and smoother.
Li Weidong held her small hand, occasionally kneading and pinching it, which made her blush even more.
"Brother Weidong, please...please don't squeeze my hand!"
Zhou Xiaoye's voice carried a hint of coquettishness.
Li Weidong laughed and pinched her cheek: "How about pinching here?"
"Hate!"
Zhou Xiaoye stomped her feet in anger.
She usually either appears shy or mature beyond her years, so this charming and innocent girlishness is something she has never shown before.
Li Weidong was stunned.
"Make way! Make way!"
An older woman carrying half a pig's leg complained, "What are you doing standing in the middle of the road? You're blocking the way!"
"If the young couple has a good relationship, they should go home, close their bedroom door, and go to sleep. What are they doing outside?"
This remark drew a lot of good-natured laughter.
Zhou Xiaoye's face instantly turned bright red, and she was so embarrassed that she couldn't lift her head.
Li Weidong pulled her into his arms and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, we'll be leaving now."
I was so stunned that I forgot I was in a market.
This little incident completely destroyed the ambiguous atmosphere between the two.
Seeing that Zhou Xiaoye was extremely shy, Li Weidong couldn't bear to tease her any longer, so he simply took her hand and walked forward.
Let's go buy some things first!
He muttered, "Mom will buy the New Year's goods and stuff. We'll just buy you two new outfits and some snacks you like, that should be enough."
Anyway, it's absolutely impossible to buy all the New Year's goods in one day. I'll have to come back a few more times. I can just come back later to buy the things I didn't get.
Zhou Xiaoye nodded shyly, but then said, "Brother Weidong, you need to buy new clothes too, right?"
Li Weidong laughed and nodded emphatically: "Buy them all!"
It's Chinese New Year, how can you not buy new clothes?
Most of the clothing vendors at the market set up racks and hung up various styles of clothes and trousers.
If you see something you like, just use a cloth to fence off an open space and try it out inside.
Because of the Lunar New Year, there are many people buying clothes.
When Li Weidong led Zhou Xiaoye to the clothing stalls, every single one was packed with people.
The sounds of bargaining and praise filled the air, creating a lively atmosphere.
"Oh, Auntie, I'm not exaggerating, but this dress looks absolutely stunning on you! You won't regret buying it!"
"Hey girl, if you wore this dress, wouldn't you drive your man crazy?"
"Too expensive, can you lower the price?"
"Our business is so small, we don't make much money. These clothes are all trendy styles from the south. Once you buy them, you'll be sure to find no other clothes like them. You won't regret spending your money!"
"Okay, then wrap this one up for me!"
"Those pants are really nice too. I've never seen this style before. Can I have a pair?"
Everyone was chattering about the clothes they wanted to buy.
Zhou Xiaoye sighed softly, "These people buy clothes like they're free..."
Li Weidong laughed: "No matter how tight life gets, at the end of the year, shouldn't we all have one more comfortable day?"
"To get rid of the old and welcome the new, we definitely need to buy new clothes."
He then pulled her into the crowd, saying, "Come on, let's see if there's anything you like. We'll buy it all today!"
At first, Zhou Xiaoye was a little reluctant to spend the money, but under Li Weidong's repeated persuasion and the festive atmosphere, he gradually got carried away.
When Li Weidong met up with Zhao Xiulian and the others at noon, he was already carrying several bags.
Most of them belong to Zhou Xiaoye.
I bought several pieces of clothing, from clothes and pants to shoes, and even the undershirts I wore underneath.
At first, Zhou Xiaoye was embarrassed, but Li Weidong's words, "I am your man," made her lose her composure, and she blushed as she bought a lot of underwear.
Zhao Xiulian and Li Xiaoli were already waiting next to the tricycle, which was piled with a lot of things.
"Brother, what did you guys buy?"
Li Xiaoli rushed forward and reached out to grab the bag from Li Weidong's hand.
Li Weidong gave him a sharp rap on the head: "What are you curious about? I only bought some clothes. Didn't Mom buy you anything?"
"I bought so much, I bought so much!"
Li Xiaoli became excited when talking about her new clothes, and walked to the car to show them off: "I have a yellow cotton-padded jacket, it's so pretty!"
As he spoke, he rummaged through the bag, trying to take something out.
Zhao Xiulian glared at her: "Why did you take it out when it was all neatly packaged? What will you do if you get it dirty!"
"It's so late, get in the car first, we'll talk about it when we get home!"
Li Xiaoli shrank her neck and leaned closer to Zhou Xiaoye: "Xiaoye, how many clothes did you buy?"
"Let me tell you, we just saw some juggling performances, it's such a shame you didn't go!"
"And also, there's a place over there selling sesame cakes, they're delicious, I saved some for you."
The two girls huddled together and started whispering to each other.
Zhou Xiaoye stopped insisting on sitting in the front and squeezed into the back of the tricycle with Li Xiaoli, having a great time discussing things.
