Chapter 305: Beating is Love, Scolding is Love



Tian Yuzhu, who had walked a little further out, began to worry: "Will Ding Weiwei win?"

She found herself funny after she said that. Although Li Shengli was a man, he would definitely not fight back, at least not for the sake of Ding Weiwei's father.

Shi Zhentang was also troubled. "They won't fight, they've been like this for the past two years. But Yuzhu, let me ask you a question. From a woman's perspective, does Ding Weiwei really like Shengli? After all the arguments, how can she still like him?"

"You don't understand this, don't you? Beating is love, scolding is care. That's how enemies become enemies."

"So do you think Victory will yield?"

"Who knows, maybe they'll develop feelings for each other as they fight?"

“…”

There are not many streets in the county town, and it doesn’t take long to walk to the photo studio.

Photo studios in this era were also state-owned units, and taking a seven-inch black-and-white photo cost about one dollar.

Shi Zhentang suggested taking two photos, one of the couple sitting side by side with a retro tea machine prop placed in the middle.

In another photo, Shi Zhentang is standing and letting his daughter-in-law sit, with his big hand gently resting on her shoulder.

After taking the photo, the staff asked if they could print an extra one to display in the window in the future.

The young couple thought this was also an interesting thing in life, so they agreed.

You can only pick up the photos after three days.

Tian Yuzhu planned to go to the department store to find her sisters-in-law. She asked Shi Zhentang to go to the Workers' Cultural Palace to read a book and wait, as he was also very tired from shopping with a group of women.

Shi Zhentang was worried that his wife would be squeezed by too many people, so he insisted on following.

On the way, he remembered to take out the thirty yuan salary from his jacket pocket and said, "I got my salary from the army this morning. Buy whatever you want. Don't save. Buy whatever you want to eat."

"Why don't you go send the money home first?"

It was originally agreed that I would give Shi De three dollars a month. It's not certain where my grandma's family lives, so if there's money, I'll send more, and if there's no money, I'll send less, but it won't be less than five dollars.

Shi Zhentang said, "Buy the things you need first, and we'll talk about it after you've bought them."

He would not give a penny less than what he had promised to give, because he was worried that if he sent her the money, his wife would think it was too little and would be reluctant to spend it.

Tian Yuzhu smiled and said, "I'm mainly buying cloth today..."

Speaking of cloth, he thought of the clothes at home, so he said, "Then send the photos later, and then send Chengcheng and Doudou's clothes back as well."

After the discussion, the two continued to go to the department store.

Tian Yuzhu hesitated for a moment but still did not tell Shi Zhentang how much money she had on hand.

She didn't want to hide it from him, but she felt that he only made 30 yuan a month, while she had earned more than 1,000 yuan in such a short time. The difference in amount was so big that it made her feel that everything was so unreal.

When she really does start a business after the reform and opening up in the future, she can slowly show off her wealth in front of him so as not to put psychological pressure on him.

So when she bought things in the department store, she always spent according to Shi Zhentang's balance of income and expenditure.

Finally she bought a few pieces of cloth and planned to send them back together after three days.

Ever since she knew she was pregnant, grandma must have been so happy that she wanted to do something, but the family's conditions were limited, and the old lady must have been so worried that she couldn't sleep well.

It would be better to just send the fabric back and ask her to make tiger-head hats and shoes for the two kids.

This way the old lady feels useful and has made a contribution, and future babies can wear it happily.

When Tian Yuzhu expressed her ideas, Shi Zhentang naturally gave her full support.

Wang Xiu Di and the other two asked her to help choose materials.

Tian Yuzhu planned the materials according to the gender, personality and age of each of their children.

You can buy more of some main fabrics, but it’s okay to buy less of the colored fabrics that are just for small decorations. If you buy too much, it won’t match with other fabrics and will just be stored at the bottom of the closet in the future.

With this plan, the sisters-in-law's money will be used effectively.

After buying daily necessities at the department store, Liu Xiaohui suggested going to the black market.

this……

Wang Xiu Di and Zhao Cui both looked at Shi Zhen Tang with embarrassment.

Going to the black market to buy things is essentially not allowed, and now there is a battalion commander standing in front of you.

Shi Zhentang looked a little embarrassed: "..."

Tian Yuzhu was the smart one: "Zhentang, aren't you going to the Workers' Cultural Palace to borrow books? Go quickly. We'll meet at the intersection in two hours."

"Well, then...sisters-in-law, please help take care of him." He had no choice but to leave now. The black market was a gray area, and it was not appropriate for a soldier like him to go there.

The three sisters-in-law immediately replied with a smile: "Don't worry, we are here for you!"

After leaving the department store, everyone started discussing things. Liu Xiaohui hoped to meet Gu Dagang, the purchasing manager of the guesthouse, today.

"The meat sold by Dagang is really good, and the price is 20 cents cheaper than the one sold at the grocery store."

I still remember the last time I bought meat with Gu Dagang, the sisters-in-law all tasted the sweetness, so naturally everyone wanted to buy some more today.

However, this kind of opportunity is hard to come by. After looking around in the black market, I didn't find anyone.

Seeing that the plan to buy meat was about to fail, everyone turned their attention to eggs.

"By the way, Yuzhu, it's good to eat goose eggs when you are pregnant. Take a good look at them later and buy the ones you like if you find one that suits you." Wang Xiu Di suddenly remembered this.

Liu Xiaohui also offered advice: "There are also supplementary foods, dates, brown sugar and the like. Buy as much as you can to keep in stock. When you're in confinement, you won't have that many sugar coupons for a while."

Zhao Cui saw that her two sisters-in-law were so thoughtful, so she said nothing. After walking around for a while, she whispered to Tian Yuzhu, "Yuzhu, don't plant your vegetable garden anymore. From now on, I will help you plant it. Anyway, my land is not enough for planting. You just wait to eat the vegetables."

"No, sister-in-law..."

Tian Yuzhu was very touched, but she also felt uneasy about bothering others so much.

She was about to say something when she suddenly saw a familiar figure walking towards her from the other end of the street.

It turned out to be Huang Ju’s cousin Zhang Xiaoling.

Zhang Xiaoling, an outgoing person, accidentally spotted Tian Yuzhu and immediately waved cheerfully, "Sister Yuzhu."

As he spoke, he trotted over to me and asked, "Are you in the county town?"

"Yes, Xiaoling, I didn't expect to meet you here." Tian Yuzhu was infected by her simple smile, and at the same time she remembered something: "By the way, Xiaoling, did you see Brother Dagang today?"

The last time she rented a short-term house, it was Zhang Xiaoling who helped her find Gu Dagang to get the key. Also, because of Huang Ju, they must be familiar with each other.

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoling looked alert: "Sister, what do you want to do with Brother Dagang?"

Tian Yuzhu didn't hide it from her: "Buying things."

Zhang Xiaoling then looked around at the passersby, came forward and whispered, "Actually, I'm here to help Brother Dagang scout the way. He has a lot of things to buy today, and since I have nothing to do, he asked me to check if there is a security team."

"Really? That's great. Do you have any meat? If you do, we'll buy it all."

Liu Xiaohui, who was listening to their conversation, came over immediately. When she heard the good news, she couldn't help but cheer.
