Next comes the crucial moment of pleasing your wife.
Pei Yuanzheng took Ruan Niannian to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Ruan Niannian was so nervous that her hands were sweating, "Sister-in-law is here."
He didn't even tell his family that he was still in the commune. Maybe he didn't want his family to know?
"It doesn't matter. We won't run into each other if we don't visit this area."
As he spoke, Pei Yuanzheng pulled Ruan Niannian to the place with the least people in the entire supply and marketing cooperative - the watch counter.
"Do you like this one?" Pei Yuanzheng pointed to one of the women's Longines watches.
Ruan Niannian looked over and found that the watch was a couple's watch. This style of watch basically attracts young people who are in free love nowadays.
Where Ruan Niannian couldn't see, Pei Yuanzheng quietly put his hands behind his back and took off the watch he was wearing.
The salesperson at the watch counter was a young-looking woman with two pigtails and a sweet girlish voice.
"Comrades, you are so lucky. This pair of Hucheng brand couple watches just arrived yesterday. One is 120 yuan, and two are 240 yuan. You need a watch ticket."
The salesperson didn't do anything else after he said that. He just looked at them with a smile on his face.
As for trying it on? It's impossible to try it on. Such a precious item is worth several months' salary for a salesperson. What if it breaks?
She was doing her job well by introducing the products to them with a smile. Which salesperson in this era doesn't see what's above their heads?
Ruan Niannian looked at the watches carefully. The women's model was exquisite, while the men's model was grand. The Hucheng brand was also a big brand. Although it was not as famous as Longines in later generations, it was also rare at the moment.
And this is the only model that has a couple's watch.
Ruan Niannian immediately understood Pei Yuanzheng's thoughts.
It’s really like what people say in later generations, don’t men understand?
No! They understand better than anyone else, it just depends on whether they are willing to understand.
"Do you like it?" Pei Yuanzheng held Ruan Niannian's hand and kept stroking her fingers to relieve the tension in his heart.
He could shoot one man after another without batting an eyelid when performing missions, but facing the woman in front of him, with whom he had physical contact and who had become the love of his heart, he unconsciously became nervous.
Ruan Niannian nodded, "I like it."
She deserves anything no matter how expensive it is.
Feeling sorry for a man’s money? Not true!
A few decades later there will still be a fashionable quote: Feeling sorry for a man's money is just abusing yourself!
Pei Yuanzheng immediately took out his wallet, took out two watch tickets, and counted out twenty-four Great Unity tickets.
"I want these two watches."
Looking at the clear mark of the watch on the man's wrist, the salesperson understood that he was changing the watch on the spot in order to make the beauty smile.
"Nian Nian, this is a meeting gift."
When Pei Yuanzheng put the watch on Ruan Niannian, Ruan Niannian also saw the marks on his wrist and felt a little sweet in her heart.
This is probably what it feels like to be in a relationship.
She thought that even if the misunderstanding was resolved, she and Pei Yuanzheng would directly enter the mode of an old married couple.
After all, Pei Yuanzheng's personality in his previous life was not romantic.
Even after her death, he was rude to all women.
After helping Ruan Niannian put on the watch, Pei Yuanzheng put it on himself to cover up the marks left by the previous watch.
The political commissar said that if you wear a watch, you should wear a couple's watch. This way you can show your love for your wife and declare to the outside world that you have a partner.
Love?
Pei Yuanzheng didn't know either.
He only knew that he would feel happy when he saw Ruan Niannian. He would think about whether she would like it before doing anything. Occasionally, he would even think to himself that this was his future daughter-in-law.
He was very happy.
Wearing couple watches, they walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative hand in hand.
Ruan Niannian turned her wrists under her sleeves. This feeling was very novel, as if she had obtained a beloved item, but it was different from the feeling of being given by her parents.
The two walked along the commune street, neither of them speaking a word.
Pei Yuanzheng remembered what his comrades-in-arms had said, that when you are not with your wife, you should always care about her, otherwise the love she has for you will become less and less.
He asked, "Niannian, has my mother given you any trouble these past two days?"
This was one of the things he was more concerned about. After all, he had such concerns before he left.
"No." Ruan Niannian shook her head.
He recounted what happened after he left.
Finally, he concluded, "My mother is very good, and my eldest sister-in-law is also very nice. But Chen Panpan may hate me. My father told me to stay away from her. I am afraid..."
She bit her lower lip, looked up at Pei Yuanzheng, and showed her panic-stricken look.
Pei Yuanzheng squeezed their clasped hands and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I have something to deal with here, and I will be back after I finish it. With my sister-in-law accompanying you, she won't dare to do anything."
"Don't go to work these two days. When you have time, let your sister-in-law accompany you to buy some things for your wedding."
Ruan Niannian listened carefully when he spoke, and was a little surprised to see that Pei Yuanzheng did not make any other moves after listening.
Then what?
Don't I need to give her money and tickets to buy things for her wedding?
Just such a light sentence?
He wasn't like this in his previous life. Even when they were in the cold war, he would give her money for household expenses. So he started to be stingy in this life? That can't be right?
Just as she was daydreaming, Ruan Niannian was taken to a photo studio by Pei Yuanzheng.
"Should we take a picture?"
"Yeah." Pei Yuanzheng nodded, "Our leader said that taking wedding photos should be more festive."
Ruan Niannian looked at her white shirt and bell-bottom pants, which seemed quite formal.
