Chapter 388 Six Dollars and Eighty Six Cents
"As long as you like it, Grandpa!"
Xiao Chengjin also laughed, and his heart finally settled down.
Su Runruan held the rubber shoes and looked at Xiao Chengjin with complicated eyes.
During this period, Xiao Chengjin went to the county town almost every other day or every two days, and his skin color became a lot darker.
She thought he got tanned on the road, but she didn't expect that after arriving in the county town, he had to work in the fields and go from street to street to sell vegetables, which was why he got tanned.
Although the prices of things sold on the black market are high, you can't find buyers every day.
Xiao Chengjin’s dishes should not all be sold on the black market. The hardships involved are definitely not something that can be summarized in just a few words.
After working hard for several months, I only earned six dollars and eighty-six cents in the end.
He spent all his money without buying anything for himself.
How could she not like Xiao Chengjin like this?
Since her rebirth, she has had no shortage of food, clothing or money. Even now, there is still a lot of money in the cash box in the treasure space.
But all that money and stuff combined are not as heavy as the pair of rubber shoes in his hand.
Xiao Chengjin really cared about her, so he remembered every little thing related to her clearly.
She just looked at his rubber shoes a few more times and said a few casual words, but Xiao Chengjin took it to heart and spent several months to buy her the shoes.
She wouldn't think Xiao Chengjin was incompetent, as it would take him several months to save enough money to buy a pair of shoes.
She just felt that Xiao Chengjin's love for her weighed heavily on her heart.
After Xiao Chengjin finished talking to Su Aimin, he turned around and saw Su Runruan standing there with her head down, holding the rubber shoes.
Xiao Chengjin thought Ruanruan was excited, so he walked over to Su Ruanruan and rubbed the back of her head. "What are you thinking about? With rubber shoes, you don't have to be afraid of rainy days in the future."
Su Ruanruan took a deep breath and looked up at Xiao Chengjin, "Even if I don't have rubber shoes, I'm not afraid of rainy days, because I have you!"
Hearing Su Ruanruan's words, Xiao Chengjin's face suddenly turned red.
Grandma Chen and Su Aimin are still here! Why did Su Ruanruan say that? Xiao Chengjin secretly glanced at Su Aimin and Grandma Chen, and saw that one of them was staring at a book, and the other was fiddling with a headscarf, as if they didn't hear Su Ruanruan's words at all.
Seeing this, Xiao Chengjin also smiled, "Yes! You don't have to be afraid of anything with me!"
"You haven't eaten yet? Let me make you something to eat! Eat some watermelon first, and I'll make you dinner in a little while."
Su Ruanruan said this and went into the house holding the rubber shoes. When she came out, she was holding a kitchen knife in her hand.
There was a small round table in the yard. Su Runrun put the watermelon on it and cut it, then went back to the kitchen with a knife.
Xiao Chengjin sat next to the small table, picked up a piece of watermelon and ate it slowly, feeling that everything was worth it.
Rubber shoes were not something he could buy just by saving up enough money, so he first borrowed five dollars from Xiao Xiulan and asked Xiao Xiulan to help him find out about the department store and get him a pair as long as there were rubber shoes for sale.
The shoes had been bought a month ago, but he had not saved enough money and had not yet taken them back.
Xiao Xiulan told him to take the shoes back first and there was no rush for the money later, but he refused.
This was something he wanted to give to Su Ruanruan, and it must have been bought with his own money.
