Chapter 4 Are you jealous?

Jiang Yu was speechless when she heard this. No matter

who she was jealous of, she couldn't be jealous of Jiang Ting. She

certainly couldn't be jealous of her marrying Fu Xiangyang!

But she didn't refute it. Jiang Ting was like a madman now. She hadn't even met Fu Xiangyang, but she thought he was perfect.

"Mom, didn't you say we were going to buy clothes this afternoon? You have to give me money, right?" Jiang Yu asked.

Although it wasn't for her, Jiang Yu also wanted to go shopping in the city.

Wang Meili searched around and took out a big wedding receipt, and finally stuffed it into Jiang Yu's pocket.

"Take it, you have good taste, pick two nice ones for your sister."

The pants were all the same, either black or navy blue, and there was no difference, so she didn't have to buy them.

Instead, she could pick two nice tops.

Jiang Yu pouted, ten yuan is not enough.

Jiang Ting said unhappily: "Buy clothes for me, why give her money."

Wang Meili glared at her, "How can I trust you to take the money when you are like this today?"

Beating Yang Cuilan is not a big deal, but it is a pity that she was beaten at this stall, and in front of so many people.

In the afternoon, Jiang Yu and Jiang Ting went out together.

As soon as they reached the entrance of the village, Jiang Ting stretched out her hand to Jiang Yu.

"Give me the money, I don't need you to accompany me, I will go by myself!"

Jiang Yu refused, "Mom said, I have a good eye, I will pick two nice ones for you."

"I don't need you to pick!"

"It's up to you, anyway, this money is given to me by mom, so I have to take it." Jiang Yu ignored her.

After reaching the commune, they had to take the bus to the city.

Jiang Ting had a sullen face and would rather stand than sit with Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu looked out of the car window and breathed the air outside. It was up to her, she wasn't the one suffering anyway.

When they got off the car in the city, Jiang Ting was almost vomited by the shaking of the car.

Especially on a hot day, the smell inside was suffocating.

Jiang Yu seldom went to the city, mainly because she had no money.

But she longed for the city. She also wanted to be like the girls in the city, dressed beautifully, without having to work in the fields, or feed pigs and chickens.

Jiang Ting snorted, "Are you jealous? Are you regretting it? It's too late!"

Jiang Yu: "...Where are you going? Do you know where the clothing store is?"

Jiang Ting said without even turning her head: "It's in the department store. I'll go directly there. The clothes there are nice."

Jiang Yu paused and became even more suspicious.

Jiang Ting has been to the city less often than she has. How did she know where the department store is?

Jiang Yu followed Jiang Ting into the department store, unable to hide her surprise.

"You actually know where the department store is!"

Jiang Ting was quite proud of herself. Although her family conditions were difficult in her previous life, she had been to the department store several times.

The department store in the city has three floors, selling all kinds of trendy goods.

Opposite is the Friendship Store Building, where you need to use foreign exchange coupons to buy things. At first, only foreigners could enter, and she had never been in.

Jiang Yu suppressed his doubts and came to the clothing store to let her choose.

Jiang Ting has a dark complexion, so she has to avoid bright colors, otherwise she will look like a country girl.

"Buy a white shirt, it will go with your black pants, it will be neat and good-looking."

Jiang Yu held a cotton shirt and gestured at Jiang Ting.

There were also Dacron shirts in the store, but the lowest price was 11.8 yuan, and they couldn't afford it.

Jiang Ting pushed her hand away, "I don't want white, I'm going on a blind date, not to a funeral, why should I wear white!"

The salesperson who was wearing a white shirt turned pale.

Jiang Yu: "...Okay, you choose it yourself, I don't care."

Jiang Ting finally chose a pink floral shirt for herself, which cost 7.2 yuan, not cheap.

But she liked it very much. She couldn't buy herself a red dress until she died in her previous life.

Even for a wedding, there wasn't even a proper wine ceremony, let alone a red dress.

Jiang Yu wanted to remind her several times, but later, seeing that she really liked him, he gave her the money.

After buying the clothes, minus the car fare, each of them could get just one dollar.

Jiang Ting sneered, "You usually come to visit your aunt, and you must have cheated your parents of their money, right?"

Jiang Yu ignored her sour words, "If you don't want it, just give me the money."

How could Jiang Ting not want it? She had no money, and if she married Fu Xiangyang, Wang Meili would definitely not give her a dowry.

She had to save some money herself.

"I'm going to the National Cotton Mill No. 2, don't follow me." Jiang Ting left after saying this.

Jiang Yu was speechless again, because Jiang Ting acted as if she was very familiar with the city.

Has she been to the National Cotton Mill No. 2? It seems not.

She pulled the corner of her lip, without thinking any more, turned around and went to the nearby street office.

When she arrived at the door of the street office, Jiang Yu stood for a while.

"Hello comrade, I'm looking for Director Yao Xiangling, is she here?"

The clerk who was stopped by her looked at her, "Hello, who are you to Director Yao?"

"She is my great aunt, I've been here before, you must be the new clerk, I haven't seen you before."

Jiang Yu would look for Yao Xiangling every time she came to the city, and she became familiar with the people in the street office.

The male comrade smiled and let down his guard against her.

"Yes, I'm a temporary worker who just joined the company, I'll go ask for you."

Not long after the male clerk went in, he turned around and came out to call her.

"Comrade, Director Yao wants you to come in."

Jiang Yu smiled, "Thank you, you are such a good person."

The male clerk was distracted by her smile, and his ears turned red.

Jiang Yu didn't pay any more attention to him, and walked into Yao Xiangling's office as if she knew the way.

"Aunt!"

Yao Xiangling is the cousin of Jiang Yu's grandmother, but they are not very close.

She was married, but her husband cheated on her, so she decisively divorced him and made him leave the house.

Maybe that marriage broke her heart, or maybe she felt that marriage was meaningless, so she has been single since then, with no children.

When Jiang Yu and Jiang Ting were born, she helped in the hospital and wanted to take Jiang Yu away for adoption, but was rejected by Wang Meili.

The girl could be raised to be exchanged for betrothal money, so how could she be given away for nothing?

Wang Meili was unwilling, so Yao Xiangling did not force it.

Over the years, she would occasionally take care of Jiang Yu.

"Why are you here today?"

Yao Xiangling was a serious person, wearing black glasses, a shirt and black pants. She was very strict in her actions and not gentle in her words.

Jiang Yu said, "Jiang Ting is going on a blind date, and my mother asked me to accompany her to buy some clothes."

Yao Xiangling raised her eyebrows, "Who is the blind date that is worthy of your mother's attention?"

Jiang Yu briefly said a few words about the situation of the Fu family.

Yao Xiangling pushed the frame of her glasses, thinking: "Fu family?"

Jiang Yu's eyes were bright, "Aunt, is there any problem with this Fu family?"

Tell me quickly, maybe you can pull Jiang Ting out of the quagmire.

Yao Xiangling thought for a moment and shook her head.

"The Fu family of the National Cotton Mill No. 2 has good conditions. They have two full-time workers. The little girl is still studying in a technical secondary school. I guess she will graduate soon... maybe she has already graduated. After graduation, she can be assigned a job, and the family will have three full-time workers."

A family with three workers is not a bad condition.

Jiang Yu pouted, "I heard that Fu Xiangyang is in poor health?"

"That's right, but I haven't heard that he has any serious problems."

Jiang Yu didn't ask any more questions. Thinking about it, even if there is any problem, the Fu family will not publicize it for their son.
