When Xu Qi heard this, he didn't ask any more questions. The girl had mentioned it to him the last time they met.
"So what gift are you going to give?"
"I'm still not sure. I'm here to ask you to go pick some together. If you're not busy, would you like to come with me?"
"It's rare that you have free time, so of course I have to accompany you." Xu Qi held the little girl's hand with his left hand, and was reluctant to let go, while his right hand was quickly taking notes in the notebook.
After marking everything and putting all the account books into the cabinet and locking them, he took the little girl to the purchasing office.
"What do you think is suitable?"
Xu Qi took the little girl directly to the wedding supplies section, where various bright red items related to wedding were displayed.
Song Tanglan felt a little dazzled when she looked at the pile of things. The colors were really too bright. She was almost scared and turned around and ran away. However, thinking that she was here to buy wedding gifts, she could only calm down and choose carefully.
"This is a nice pair of pillowcases, what do you think?"
"It's really pretty. If you like it, I'll buy it and we can each have one."
"I'm buying it as a gift. You're overthinking it." Seeing the man was so shameless and trying to take advantage of her, Song Tanglan couldn't help rolling her eyes.
What she was holding in her hand was actually a mandarin duck pillowcase. In this era, mandarin duck pillowcases were a must-have for weddings, not to mention that she didn't like such bright colors.
"That's a shame. We can only buy it when we get married."
After Xu Qi finished speaking, he still felt very regretful. He just stared at Song Tanglan without blinking, looking at her ears, which had changed from the original white to the current pink. Looking at those cute ears, he almost couldn't help but pinch them.
But he knew that if he dared to touch her at this time, the girl would definitely be angry.
Song Tanglan heard him teasing her again, but she pretended not to hear him and continued to pick out the remaining things.
She wondered if a pair of pillowcases might be too light, so she thought about taking another look. In the end, she couldn't find anything else suitable after choosing for a long time.
The truth is that they bought a lot of things before moving into their new home, and they didn’t have access to many of them.
In the end, Song Tanglan couldn't pick a suitable person, so she chose a piece of vanishing cream and perfume.
I plan to use these two items as gifts privately, and the pillowcase will be given openly.
As for why she gave these two things, it was because she had just seen the ointment and smelled it and found it smelled quite good. In addition to the gifts, she also bought two small boxes for herself.
One has the scent of gardenia and the other has the scent of peach.
These two were her favorites among the many floral scents, so she bought them without much thought. After all, she was a wealthy woman now.
What's more, the man next to her didn't even give her a chance to pay. He just took out the money, paid and left.
Although we are now in the black market, as a black market person we can keep accounts directly, but after all, there are so many people coming and going to buy things, so we don’t want to expose our identities because of such a small matter.
After leaving the black market, Song Tanglan took Xu Qi to the supply and marketing cooperative, intending to spend the bills that were about to expire.
As for why she didn't use it on the black market, it was because very few people coming and going would use tickets to buy things on the black market.
Even if you buy it with tickets on the black market, the price will be much higher, so in the end, it is more cost-effective to buy it directly with money.
What's more, bills that are about to expire are rarely accepted on the black market. Such bills can only be registered and cancelled at supply and marketing cooperatives and state-owned restaurants.
"Speculation and profiteering" like the black market can only backfire on your own.
Fortunately, they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative not too late, and with Xu Qi protecting them from behind, they quickly squeezed to the front and bought what they wanted.
Xu Qi took the backpack and helped the little girl carry it, then asked, "Where are you going next? I'll go with you."
"Then come with me to the post office! Sister Tian said last time that a new version of stamps will be coming soon, and I'm just in time to buy one."
"Do you like stamp collecting?" Xu Qi asked in surprise, as he rarely heard the little girl have other hobbies.
"Yeah, I've already bought several versions. Why, I don't look like someone who likes stamp collecting?"
He said this while staring at him fiercely, waiting for his reply without blinking.
"No, I didn't expect Lanlan to have such a hobby. If I had known you liked it, I would have asked someone to make a few more copies for you."
"No, no, I already have many versions." Song Tanglan waved his hand after saying this.
The stamps she could actually get were actually obtained by Sister Tian, an old employee, who had already gotten them for her.
She even managed to get three copies of The Whole Country is Red.
When she saw this stamp, she almost jumped up with excitement. It is really very valuable in the future and has great collection value.
"Okay, you can tell me if you need anything." At this time, Xu Qi also remembered that Chen Feng had several stamp books in his inventory, and thought of exchanging some good things with him and giving them to the little girl to make her happy.
"I'll tell you. Come on, let's get the stamps and then go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner. I'll pay."
After Song Tanglan finished speaking, he patted his bulging backpack.
Seeing her smug look, Xu Qi said jokingly, "Ah, since Xiao Song Zhiqing wants to treat me to a meal, I can only respectfully obey. After all, it's Xiao Song Zhiqing who coveted my beauty!"
"Don't keep talking nonsense. Have some shame. You're still outside!"
Song Tanglan was so angry that she glared at him, looked around, and was relieved to find that no one was paying attention to them.
She really didn't want to embarrass herself in public.
