Lin Qingqing, who was sitting in the back of the car, finally asked, "Does Miao Xinru also work in your institute? What does she do there?"
"I only found out this morning that she came to the institute to work. I don't know what she does specifically, and I'm too lazy to ask about people who have nothing to do with me." Xiao Wen looked straight ahead and answered frankly.
After hearing what he said, Lin Qingqing had to say that the breath that had been blocked in her heart suddenly cleared up.
"I think she has bad intentions. Just stay away from her in the institute." She warned him awkwardly.
The driver secretly glanced at the young couple in the back seat through the rearview mirror and thought to himself that Mr. Xiao's wife was too overbearing. Mr. Xiao would probably be angry soon.
Just when he was thinking about trying to stop the fight later, he suddenly heard that Mr. Xiao, whom he admired, actually agreed in a good mood.
"I understand. Even if you don't remind me about this, I will stay away from her." He answered seriously.
The driver was stunned for a few seconds, but soon he regained his strength and continued driving.
When the car passed the department store here, Lin Qingqing suddenly shouted to the driver, "Master, stop, we are parking here."
The car soon stopped in front of the department store.
"I'll take a walk inside with your Engineer Xiao, and we'll go back by ourselves later. You can leave work early today." After getting out of the car, she walked to the passenger side and spoke to the driver.
The driver didn't know what to do for a moment and immediately looked towards Xiao Wen.
Seeing this, Xiao Wen immediately spoke up, "Listen to my wife, you go back first, I will go back by myself."
After he said this, the driver drove away from the department store.
As soon as the car left, Lin Qingqing took his hand and walked inside to where large appliances such as refrigerators were stored.
In this day and age, such large appliances are still considered expensive daily necessities. Although many people come here to see them, few are willing to buy them.
So when the young couple came here, there were also a few men and women there watching these things.
Lin Qingqing took his hand and walked directly to a refrigerator placed here.
There are no double-door or three-door refrigerators now. There are only old-fashioned refrigerators that look a bit bulky.
But at this time, this old-fashioned refrigerator was also a rarity.
"What do you think of this refrigerator?" Lin Qingqing pointed at one of them and asked the man next to her.
Xiao Wen didn't have any idea about this kind of thing. He said, "If you think it's okay, buy it. I'll listen to you."
Lin Qingqing curled her lips. There was one advantage of being with this man, which was that he would not have any opinions and would buy anything she wanted.
"Then it's decided. Buy this refrigerator."
Xiao Wen naturally had no objection and nodded.
Lin Qingqing immediately called the salesperson next to her.
"Excuse me, how much does this refrigerator cost?" Lin Qingqing asked, pointing at the refrigerator she had just chosen.
The salesperson looked at the refrigerator she pointed to, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
She has been working here for more than half a year, and the number of customers she has met who actually bought something can be counted on one hand.
The month is almost over and she hasn't made a single sale.
I didn't expect to be so lucky today. I actually got a business deal just before getting off work.
"Dear customer, are you sure you really want this refrigerator? If so, would you like it without a ticket or with a ticket?" the salesperson introduced enthusiastically.
When Lin Qingqing heard that she could actually buy it without a ticket, she was delighted and immediately chose this.
"How much does this refrigerator cost without a ticket?"
The salesperson still replied enthusiastically, "If you don't need a ticket, this refrigerator will cost one hundred yuan more, six hundred and fifty yuan each."
Although she knew that this refrigerator would not be cheap, Lin Qingqing was still surprised when she heard the price.
This number is almost catching up with modern refrigerators.
"What if we use tickets?"
"If I use a ticket, it will only cost five hundred and fifty yuan."
"Then let's choose the one without a ticket. Please pick a newer one for us. Also, can you help with the delivery?"
There’s no way the two of them could get such a big thing back.
The salesperson didn't expect the young couple to be so happy to order one right away, and his face was immediately filled with happy smiles.
"Of course that's no problem. We guarantee delivery. Just write down your address and our people will deliver it to your home." The salesperson said sincerely.
After all, he is a big customer, so of course he must be treated well.
After getting this answer, Lin Qingqing finally didn't have to worry about how to get the refrigerator back.
He quickly turned around and followed the salesperson to pay.
After paying the money and writing down the address, the couple went shopping in other parts of the department store.
When they finally left, both of them came out with large and small bags in their hands.
On the way back, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but feel a little pain when she thought about the thousands of dollars she had spent today.
"We spent a lot of money this time. In the days to come, we can't be as lavish as usual and eat meat whenever we want." Sitting on the bus, Lin Qingqing leaned her head on his shoulder, sighing from time to time.
At their feet were several packages of things they had bought, a radio, a few boxes of vanishing cream, two cans of chicken essence, and some paper, pen and ink.
Hearing the sad voice in his ear, Xiao Wen patted the back of her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, the money is spent. Your man is still quite capable of making money. He won't let you and the children go hungry. It will be the end of the month soon. When the salary is paid, I will give it all to you."
After getting off the car, the couple ran into a truck delivering refrigerators from the department store before entering the village.
The arrival of a truck in the village caused such a big commotion that it naturally attracted the attention of the villagers.
Curious villagers went over to inquire and immediately found out that the Xiao family had bought a refrigerator and taken it home.
This news immediately spread like wildfire in the village.
No one in their village has ever bought this thing.
As soon as the refrigerator was moved into the Xiao family, many villagers came to watch the fun.
Since they were all villagers from the same village, the couple had no choice but to take out some snacks to entertain them.
"Xiao Wen, you must have spent a lot of money on this refrigerator. I heard it's quite magical. After you put vegetables in it, they won't turn yellow or rot for several days. Is that true?" The person asking the question was a villager from the village. While asking the question, he did not forget to touch the new refrigerator.
Xiao Wen smiled and nodded, "That's true. This refrigerator is used to preserve fresh food and can also freeze meat."
