Chapter 420: Moving to a New House, Downtown Trip
Qin Wenbin put away his phone, turned around and replied, "It's half past eleven. It seems that the Zhang family has started moving."
Father Qin stood beside Qin Wenbin, standing on tiptoe and looking out. The place where they lived was relatively high, and from here they could see some scenes of the village. He looked for a long time, until the sound of firecrackers gradually faded away, then he retracted his gaze and said, "You go in and sleep, I'll keep watch."
Qin Wenbin asked curiously, "Dad, do you think my sister moved with the Zhang family?"
Father Qin shook his head without even thinking, "Impossible, it's not the right time yet! Your sister and Bai Yan haven't even registered yet, so they're not considered Zhang family members. How can your sister go with them if they move? I guess she should be staying at the old house to look at houses."
"Then I'll go over and take a look." Qin Wenbin said excitedly.
Father Qin yelled, "Don't mess around! Is your sister still asleep at night? She has to get up early to work tomorrow!"
After hearing what Qin's father said, Qin Wenbin gave up the idea of going over to watch the fun.
At the Zhang family's side, the car drove out at midnight. Zhang's father, who was sitting in the passenger seat, set off firecrackers all the way. Zhang Wanwan and Zhang's mother were carrying things in the back seat. Zhang's mother was holding a red basket with an incense burner in it, and was lighting sandalwood. Zhang Wanwan was holding a bowl of water with something like branches on it.
Along the way, Zhang Baiyan deliberately drove the car much slower, and estimated that he arrived at the new house at almost twelve o'clock. After parking the car, Zhang's father took a brazier and placed it at the door. When it was twelve o'clock, he took the lead and stepped into the new house.
The family went through the formalities of ceremony again in the new house before returning to their rooms to rest.
Zhang Wanwan threw herself on the 1.80-meter bed, rolled back and forth several times, got up, changed into a new silk nightgown, and snuggled into the quilt. She was so sleepy that she couldn't fall asleep, so she simply picked up her phone and posted a message on her Moments: First day of moving, tired but happy, and attached a photo of her back.
After a while, Leng Ziyue sent her a message: Why aren't you sleeping so late?
Zhang Wanwan: I can’t sleep. I need to adapt to the new house.
Leng Ziyue: Do you want me to come over and accompany you? You will definitely sleep well with me around.
Zhang Wanwan's pretty face turned red, and she simply replied with two words "hooligan" and ignored him.
I don't know how I fell asleep afterwards.
The next day, when she opened the curtains, she found that it was sunny outside. It seemed that it was already late. After changing her clothes, Zhang Wanwan went out to see that her mother had already finished praying. There was movement in the kitchen, so she went over to take a look, rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked, "Mom, you're up so early!"
Zhang's mother was in high spirits because of the good news. She glanced back at her and said angrily, "It's late! Don't you see what time it is? You're going to have lunch right away, okay?"
Zhang Wanwan nodded coquettishly, her head resting against Zhang's mother, and she seemed not to have fully woken up yet.
Mother Zhang said quickly, "Okay, okay, hurry up and make it. See if you want some porridge. Your dad and your brother should be back later. Also, do you need to take care of the bakery downstairs? We can't keep it closed forever! I was thinking that you should start working quickly so that you can bring Wenjun over and let her and your brother develop a better relationship."
This is the key point!
Zhang Wanwan secretly complained, thought for a moment, and said, "How about this, you ask my brother to pick up Wenjun tonight, and I'll start work tomorrow. It just so happens that the express delivery company will be working on the seventh day after tomorrow, so we can ship the goods."
"Okay!" Zhang's mother smiled from ear to ear, wiped her hands and immediately called Zhang Baiyan, "Baiyan, when you're done today, take your sister and Wenjun to the city to buy some wedding supplies, and bring Wenjun directly to the new house in the evening. Your sister will start work tomorrow."
Zhang Wanwan almost choked to death on her own saliva. She looked at her mother in shock and waited until she hung up the phone before asking, "When did I say I was going out today?"
"Your mother said so." Zhang's mother said confidently, "We agreed before that you two would go to the city together. You have to start work tomorrow, so how can you have time later? It's a good idea to go out for a walk today since you are not busy."
Zhang Wanwan was unable to refute. She frowned in frustration, ate a bowl of porridge as if to vent her anger, and then reluctantly went to lie down on the sofa. However, before she could even warm up the sofa, Zhang Baiyan's phone call rushed her out like a death warrant.
In the car, Zhang Wanwan finally calmed down and asked the two people, "What do you plan to buy first?"
Qin Wenjun subconsciously looked at Zhang Baiyan. She was completely clueless about things like marriage and she didn't even know what to buy.
Zhang Baiyan was driving the car. He saw Qin Wenjun's expression in the rearview mirror and laughed, "I don't know what to buy, but I have to buy a bright red four-piece suit, and gold for the wedding. These are also necessary. I'll call mom for the rest later."
Qin Wenjun felt a little embarrassed to hear Zhang Baiyan speak so intimately, but she got used to it after a while.
The car entered the city and drove through familiar streets, but the three were a little confused. Pu City is still a small city, the roads in the city are small, and traffic jams are commonplace. It is very convenient for them to drive here, but it would be very inconvenient if they drove around the city.
Zhang Wanwan thought about it and immediately asked Zhang Boyan to park the car in the basement of the shopping mall. The three of them directly rented three electric cars to drive around the city.
First I went to see the gold.
There are many jewelry stores in the city, and they are much larger than those in the county. The three of them found a famous jewelry store and went in.
Qin Wenjun subconsciously looked towards the gold necklace, but was grabbed by Zhang Wanwan, who dragged her to the display cabinet on the wall, "Take a look and see which one you like?"
"This... Do you want to buy this?" Qin Wenjun was shocked. What was placed in front of her was a super gorgeous necklace, made of solid gold and in pieces. It could only be used as a decoration at weddings and could not be worn outside at other times. She subconsciously wanted to refuse.
Zhang Wanwan said, "My parents are quite traditional. You will definitely wear Chinese-style gowns when you hold your wedding banquet in your hometown. This headgear is indispensable. My mother specifically told me to buy this and the wide bracelet. You must choose at least one pair of that. You must also get a pair of earrings that are more exaggerated. After you get married, you can put them away and treasure them. Then I will buy you a safe."
Zhang Wanwan said half jokingly and half seriously.
Because she pushed Zhang's mother out, Qin Wenjun didn't dare to object and had to choose a pair according to Zhang Wanwan's wishes. After buying these, Qin Wenjun didn't want to look at those small necklaces anymore. But Zhang Baiyan insisted that she choose another set to wear on a daily basis and a pair of platinum rings.
When the three of them came out of the jewelry store, Qin Wenjun was so heartbroken that she couldn't speak. With this amount of money in and out, 70,000 or 80,000 yuan was gone in an instant. If her brother followed the Zhang family's standards, would he be able to find a wife in his life?
