Chapter 165: Look Down on People



Xu Xiangyang heard his words and nodded.

Their house is indeed a mess. At least the older sister is not an easy person to deal with.

But after hiding from his family, a love rival appeared this time, which was really unbearable.

The two returned to the department store and wandered around.

The things here no longer had much appeal to Xu Xiangyang. After all, he could see better products every night, so these were a bit inferior.

He sighed, realizing that he really couldn't be exposed to modernization anymore, otherwise he really couldn't stand the current environment.

Although the air is good, it is not convenient.

"Brother Xu, I heard that Hong Kong is developing very well. I really want to go and see it." Qian Wenqing sighed.

He also travels frequently on business and has seen many department stores in big cities, so he naturally looks down on places like Xincheng.

When Xu Xiangyang heard this, he patted him on the back and said, "Watch your words!"

It's not that he is too sensitive, but if other people heard such remarks at this time, they would easily be pulled away and scolded!

Qian Wenqing also knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he pouted angrily and stopped talking.

It was almost eleven o'clock when the two left the department store. Xu Xiangyang looked at the restaurant with a new sign hanging not far away.

Over there is a newly opened state-owned restaurant, whose specialty is Sichuan cuisine.

Since the movement began, Lao Moxi Restaurant has been closed. Now if you want to eat something good, you can only go to the state-owned restaurant.

Although Xu Xiangyang is not greedy, he is still a human being and he always needs to eat something good to change his taste.

"Let's sit by the window?" Qian Wenqing suggested.

Xu Xiangyang didn't care where he went and nodded in agreement.

He glanced at the menu that showed today's offerings and said, "I'll have twice-cooked pork and a spicy chicken."

Qian Wenqing:!!!

Oh shit! He didn't plan to order this!

They are indeed two dishes, but are they...

Too expensive?

He turned to look at Xu Xiangyang, who ordered another pound of draft beer and then ran to sit at the table by the window.

Shedding tears of regret, Qian Wenqing felt that he was still too young!

I paid the money ticket, but this month's meat ticket is gone, and there is still half a month left.

Seeing his distressed look, Xu Xiangyang said maliciously, "Are these two dishes enough? Don't you want to order something else?"

You little brat! Why are you still messing around with him?

Qian Wenqing almost burst into tears and said aggrievedly, "Brother Xu, I have used up all my meat coupons for the month. What else can I order? Just make do with what you have."

After saying that, he felt something was wrong. Who could afford to eat two meat dishes at a meal? Wasn't it already Chinese New Year?

"Why is there no window seat?" At this time, a male voice sounded.

Two men came to the door. They looked to be in their early thirties and were dressed slickly.

At least in this era, most cadre families dressed like this.

Xu Xiangyang looked around and saw that all the window seats were full.

Another person said, "It's the same sitting inside, let's go in."

The two of them ordered food at the ordering window, then sat down at the table next to Xu Xiangyang, which was leaning against the wall.

There is a one-and-a-half-meter gap between the two tables, which is enough for walking.

Xu Xiangyang withdrew his gaze and looked out the window.

It is very impolite to keep looking at strangers at this time, so he will only look at them twice and will not look at them again.

But Qian Wenqing was different. He would stare at people because they were dressed well.

There's nothing much to say just by looking at it.

The two people also noticed Qian Wenqing's eyes, but pretended not to see it and continued chatting and doing other things.

Qian Wenqing blinked and asked, "Hey, buddy, where did you buy those big leather shoes? They're so impressive!"

He was really envious. He could see that the watch required foreign exchange, so he didn't think about it anymore.

But if you think about leather shoes, you can buy a pair if you work hard.

When Xu Xiangyang heard his words, he set his eyes on that person.

He was about thirty years old, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, a slicked-back hair, and a high-end Mao suit that didn't look like it was bought in a department store.

The watch on his wrist is also a well-known foreign brand, which requires foreign currency to buy.

Although I don’t know what brand the shoes on his feet are, they are definitely not ordinary leather shoes. At least the workmanship and leather are different.

The man glanced at Qian Wenqing indifferently, raised the corner of his mouth and said nothing.

Another man spoke up, "Brother, I'm not looking down on you, but these shoes are hard to find in Beijing. You should just look at them in the department store and stop overthinking it."

Although the two men didn't look down on each other, the contempt in their words made Qian Wenqing blush.

He really couldn't afford what others said, but that didn't mean he couldn't afford it even if he gritted his teeth!

Xu Xiangyang frowned, thinking that this person was talking too much. He said, "You don't know what you are talking about, or you can't buy foreign goods here, so what?"

He starts by saying "I don't look down on you", which is obviously a sign of contempt.

Xu Xiangyang said in a deep voice, "Comrade, aren't you being too harsh? It's just a question. If you don't want to answer, you don't have to say anything. You can just ignore it."

After saying this, he "inadvertently" revealed the Rolex on his wrist and then adjusted his collar.

(∩?_?)?: Open your eyes wide and see what a watch is! Country bumpkin!

Everyone: Σ(°△°|||)

Oh shit!

The man with gold-rimmed glasses immediately showed a look of surprise, and so did the man sitting opposite him.

Obviously, these two men have seen the world and have seen this kind of thing.

Qian Wenqing, who was sitting opposite Xu Xiangyang, was completely bewildered. "When did Brother Xu change his watch?" He had to admit, this thing was truly impressive, even better than the one with the glasses.

This should be a foreign product, right? I didn't expect Brother Xu to be such a secretive person. I haven't seen him wearing it for so long.

Xu Xiangyang succeeded in pretending to be a tough guy, then he coughed lightly and said to Qian Wenqing, "The food is ready, bring it over and eat."

It’s been so long, I’m already hungry, let’s eat quickly!

"Okay, okay." Qian Wenqing immediately stood up and went to serve the food.

In any case, his embarrassment was over and nothing happened.

The two people on the side looked at each other and then said nothing.

The man with gold-rimmed glasses looked at Xu Xiangyang deeply and memorized his appearance.

Maybe he was the son of a leading cadre in Xincheng? He had never seen him before?

Xu Xiangyang finished his meal under Qian Wenqing's envious gaze, then stood up and left gracefully.

On the way, Qian Wenqing hurriedly asked, "Brother Xu, when did you buy this watch? Where did you buy it? I've never seen it before."

It’s amazing! He has never seen such a beautiful watch in his life!

If Xu Xiangyang wanted to know what he was thinking, he would have to complain.

How old do you have to be to count your whole life?

This old monster who has lived for thirty years longer than before hasn't said anything yet!
