The fruit tree in Su Jinyan's yard produced a lot of fruits this year. Su Chengguo took away two large baskets, and Su Jinyan and Sun gave more than ten fruits to each of the neighbors.
Sun was a simple man, but just like when he was in the village, he wanted to have good relations with his neighbors. Not only did he give apples, he also picked two cucumbers, two tomatoes, and a handful of cabbage for each family.
In this regard, Su Jinyan is not as good as Sun.
In her previous life, when she was a child, she lived in a bungalow and still interacted with her neighbors. Later, she lived in a high-rise building and didn't even know the people next door. When they met, they just nodded. Did they exchange gifts? That didn't happen.
"Yanyan, let me tell you, our neighbors are all very nice. They even took me to the nearby supply and marketing cooperative, grocery store, grain store, and market."
"This capital city is really great. There are so many supply and marketing cooperatives, and the things inside are also good."
Speaking of this, Sun smacked his lips. It was really good, but also expensive.
At this time, Su Jinyan remembered that it had been more than half a year and she and Zhao Yuanyi had never taken Sun shopping!
Sun is illiterate and has never been to the city, so he must be very scared of this place.
What an incompetent person.
"Mom, I'm sorry, I forgot to take you and Dad out for a walk. Let me call Meijun, and we'll go around the area now. You can get familiar with the environment first."
Sun was stunned and waved her hands hurriedly, "No, no, I know the way. You can just walk around with the neighbors when you have time."
Su Jinyan smiled and said, "It's okay. I just want to go shopping. Call dad and let's go to the department store."
Sun nodded happily, "Okay, let's go shopping for a while. If you get tired, we'll come back."
Su Jinyan smiled and nodded, "Then go home and change your clothes. Put on the black pants and black flowered shirt that I bought for you, and put on your leather shoes."
Sun nodded and said "hmm", she was sure not to embarrass her daughter-in-law.
The two returned home. Su Jinyan said something to Chen Meijun, drank a glass of water, and picked up a thermos cup of water. While waiting for Sun and Zhao Zhengjun, she and Chen Meijun explained the reason for going out.
"Since returning to the capital, I have been busy doing nothing for half a year. I haven't even taken my parents-in-law out for a walk. As a result, they have to be accompanied by neighbors when they want to go out."
Chen Meijun nodded calmly, then changed the subject and said, "Why do I feel like your parents-in-law are a little afraid of you? What did you do?"
"Ah? Really?" Su Jinyan blinked in surprise and whispered, "My father-in-law was a soldier. He injured his leg during a mission, and my mother-in-law got her eye pierced while working, which caused her eyesight to be not very good. I always thought they felt inferior to me, a city girl."
No matter how hard she racked her brains, she couldn't figure out why Sun and Zhao Zhengjun were afraid of her. The original owner hardly interacted with them before, but after she came, she treated them very well... right?
Chen Meijun nodded affirmatively, "Your father-in-law and mother-in-law always ask you about everything they do, and they unconsciously look at you when they speak, as if they are afraid of upsetting you."
Su Jinyan looked up at the sky in silence, "I'm so pretty and cute, and I don't have a bad temper, right? Why are you afraid of me? I'm not a big bad wolf!"
Chen Meijun smiled, maybe it was true that rural parents-in-law were afraid of their daughters-in-law.
Then I thought to myself that it would be great if I could find parents-in-law who are afraid of their daughter-in-law and listen to her in everything, even if they are from the countryside.
It's better than fighting with your in-laws all day long.
During the conversation, Sun and Zhao Zhengjun came out. They both changed into new clothes and leather shoes. Chen Meijun wanted to laugh when she saw them.
Su Jinyan also discovered this problem. In the hot summer, it seemed a bit hot to wear leather shoes. He decided to buy a pair of Huili shoes for them later.
The sun was blazing, Su Jinyan went back to the house and got two black parasols, and handed one to Sun. Unexpectedly, Sun quickly shook her head and said, "No, Mom doesn't need it. You and classmate Chen can use it." Then she explained, "When Mom was in the village, she also worked at this time. She is used to it. This little bit of sun is nothing."
Zhao Zhengjun also said: "Yanyan, we don't need it, you and classmate Chen can use it, you girls can't get sunburned."
Sun Jinyan no longer forced it and gave Chen Meijun an umbrella. They walked out of the yard and she pulled Sun to open the umbrella to shade them from the sun.
Sun was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling along the way.
As they walked, Su Jinyan introduced the surrounding environment to the two of them, including shops, post office, how to take the bus to her school and Zhao Yuanyi's school, how to take the bus to the train station, and then to the nearest department store.
It was just past noon and it was Friday, so many people had gone to work and there were very few people in the department store.
Su Jinyan added some shampoo and shower gel to the house, and bought two boxes of vanishing cream and a box of Harry oil for Sun. Then he bought the two of them a pair of Huili shoes and a piece of white Dacron to wear these days.
The ready-made clothes she bought for Sun and Zhao Zhengjun were something they were reluctant to wear, so she bought them fabric. Sun knew how to make clothes, so she was willing to pass on the ones she made herself.
The four of them took their things and walked all the way to the third floor of the department store. Su Jinyan saw the radio and TV and she felt very itchy. Unfortunately, she didn't have tickets for the radio and TV.
It’s really hard to get tickets for TV these days.
"Hey, waiter, what is this? Is it a refrigerator?"
Su Jinyan saw something that looked like a refrigerator and asked excitedly.
The waiter lifted his sleepy eyelids and looked at her. Perhaps because he saw that the girls were dressed well, he replied coldly, "Well, refrigerator, 1,600 yuan plus refrigerator ticket."
Fridge tickets!
As expected, you need a refrigerator ticket for everything!
Suddenly, Su Jinyan thought that Cheng Jingwen seemed to have collected a lot of refrigerators and washing machines in her space, so she would go back and look for similar ones.
Having enjoyed the benefits of modern electronic products, she was dazzled by the sight of a refrigerator.
"Mom, let's go. I'll go find my aunt and uncle and ask them if they can get tickets for the refrigerator and TV."
My uncle's family has a black and white TV that has been there for several years. It is the smallest model, the 14-inch one. Nowadays, department stores only have 18- and 20-inch ones.
There was only one kind of refrigerator, a light green one with a single door, upper and lower doors. There were only two of them. As for what was inside, Su Jinyan didn't even look.
The waiter looked up at her, then leaned on the counter and continued to squint.
The four of them went downstairs, and Su Jinyan bought some cakes and fruit candies, milk candies, brown sugar, white sugar, etc. She could see that Sun liked to eat candies and egg cakes very much, and even if she had saved money all her life, she would never buy them no matter how greedy she was.
When Sun saw Su Jinyan buying so many candies and cakes at one time, she felt a little distressed. She would never be willing to eat and drink so lavishly in her entire life, but she didn't say anything in the end.
My daughter-in-law is pregnant and gets hungry easily, so it’s only right to prepare some pastries at home.
