Su Meng's face turned red, but he nodded: "I'll take you to the warehouse to have a look. If you like it, you can buy up to seven kilograms."
Qi Mengmeng was waiting nearby. Su Meng told the person at the counter next to him and took Qi Mengmeng to an office at the very edge.
When the person at the door saw Su Meng, a look of surprise flashed across his face, but he quickly returned to normal and greeted with a smile: "Su family girl, who is this?"
"An acquaintance of my sister." Su Meng said in a low voice.
The man reminded: "There aren't many things in there."
This means that the two people should take it slowly, otherwise he will have trouble explaining to others.
Su Meng nodded, waved to Qi Mengmeng, and the two of them walked in.
"It's right here, take your pick." Su Meng took Qi Mengmeng a little further inside and pointed at a cardboard box on the ground.
Qi Mengmeng squatted down and looked around. Most of them were gray, with a few white. She estimated the weight and picked out some gray ones.
Su Meng took a look and took out a ball of wool from it: "These are almost enough for seven pounds, do you want them all?"
"Both." Qi Mengmeng nodded quickly.
Although the wool here is dyed badly, it is only the color that has a problem and the thread is still good. She can weave the dyed areas into one place, which looks good and not obvious.
When she was in modern times, in order to save money, she knitted gloves and scarves for herself. Although she never knitted sweaters, it seems to be similar.
Seeing her nod, Su Meng said nothing more. He led her to the door to pay the bill and found a paper bag for her to pack the wool.
Jiang Shan had been standing at the door and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two people come out.
"Sister-in-law, let me take it." Jiang Shan took two steps forward and took the paper bag from Qi Mengmeng's hand.
When Su Meng saw Jiang Shan, her face turned red instantly and she turned her head to look away.
Qi Mengmeng felt that some things needed to be made clear. She couldn't sell Jiang Shan for seven kilograms of wool. Now, she had to buy the wool she needed first.
Qi Mengmeng followed Su Meng back to the counter, bought three kilograms of wool, and after paying the fee, she asked about Su Meng's age.
Su Meng whispered that she was nineteen years old, one year older than Qi Mengmeng.
Qi Mengmeng has run the store for so many years and is quite good at judging people. With her deliberate efforts to make friends with him, she quickly got to know Su Meng.
Su Meng has two sisters. His elder sister is Su Mei, who sells bicycles upstairs. His father is the purchasing director of a department store, and his mother works in the street office.
Such a family is almost hard to find in the provincial capital. Why did Su Mei want to introduce Jiang Shan to Su Meng after just one glance?
Qi Mengmeng had a question mark in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She smiled and greeted Su Meng before going to buy other things.
Washbasins, kettles, plates, bowls, chopsticks, these are all very old-fashioned things. Qi Mengmeng bought them all in department stores because she had a lot of money.
Seeing that Jiang Shan had no time to carry the things she bought, she went to the first floor to push her bicycle.
Jiang Shan followed behind and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't expect Qi Mengmeng to spend so much money. In less than half a day, Qi Mengmeng actually spent three or four hundred yuan. It was terrible.
Qi Mengmeng went to pick up her bicycle and unexpectedly saw Su Mei. She greeted her in surprise, "Hello, Sister Su."
Su Mei stepped forward with a smile: "The bicycle I just picked out for you is guaranteed to be the newest one."
All the bicycles are shipped in from other places, and occasionally there are scratches on the paint, which they repaint themselves.
Su Mei wanted to make friends with Qi Mengmeng, so naturally she had to pick the best things for her.
Qi Mengmeng thanked Su Mei, held her hand, and stuffed a few candies into her palm.
Su Mei came from a wealthy family, so of course she didn't care about these candies, but Qi Mengmeng's attitude was more important. She put the candies in her pocket and moved closer to Qi Mengmeng.
"Sister Qi, I see that young man is not very old, does he have a girlfriend? Look at my sister, she works in a department store and she is pretty."
Su Mei started introducing the person directly, which made Qi Mengmeng even more confused.
Normally, women would be reserved, but Su Mei was too active. What if Su Meng had any problems? Wouldn't that be a mistake for Jiang Shan?
"Sister, I just came to join the army, and I don't know much about his situation. How about I go back and ask my man, and then I'll get back to you." Qi Mengmeng was trying to shirk responsibility.
Su Mei naturally understood what she meant, but her sister's situation was special and there was no time for her to think about it slowly.
Su Mei gritted her teeth and pulled Qi Mengmeng aside: "Sister, I'm telling you the truth. There's a second-rate guy on our street who has taken a fancy to my sister. Don't worry, my sister has a job, and my parents will give her a lot of dowry. She is honest and virtuous."
Nowadays, military wives are very respected. Once Su Meng becomes a military wife, that person will definitely be in trouble.
Su Mei's family is in the military and has no connections, so she was so enthusiastic when she saw Jiang Shan accompanying Qi Mengmeng shopping.
Qi Mengmeng frowned: "Since Sister Su told the truth, I will go back and ask for you. As for whether it will succeed or not, I can't make the decision."
Su Mei nodded hurriedly, as long as Qi Mengmeng helped to ask.
"If he has a partner, can Sister Qi find a single one for my sister? Don't worry, my sister is a very nice person. If the marriage is successful, I will give you a 20 yuan red envelope for being the matchmaker."
Su Mei added another sentence, and it can be seen that she was indeed very anxious.
Qi Mengmeng didn't need the twenty dollars, she just asked and didn't agree directly.
After leaving the department store, Jiang Shan rode his bicycle to register, and Qi Mengmeng went to the state-owned restaurant to wait for him.
Originally, Qi Mengmeng said she would take the things, but Jiang Shan was afraid that Qi Mengmeng would be tired, so he took all the things away himself.
When Qi Mengmeng arrived at the state-owned restaurant, it was half past eleven and half of the seats were occupied, so she went to queue up to buy food first.
Worried that there wouldn't be enough food, Qi Mengmeng bought braised pork, stir-fried pork with hot peppers, two bowls of dumplings, and ordered ten buns. If she couldn't finish them, she would just put them in her space and eat them slowly.
The waiter saw that she ordered a lot and frowned: "You ordered too much, you can't finish it."
"I have a patient at home, and I have to take the food back to the patient after I finish eating."
Qi Mengmeng whispered that when she handed over the money, she put two pieces of White Rabbit milk candy under the money.
The waiter reluctantly took the money from Qi Mengmeng's hand, then froze for a moment, and soon the expression on his face relaxed: "Go and wait."
Qi Mengmeng found a seat and sat down, then she heard someone next to her say, "Mom, you said she ordered so much, is there enough to eat?"
"Stop talking and eat quickly." Zheng Meili noticed Qi Mengmeng as soon as she came in. In order not to be recognized, she kept her head down.
Qi Mengmeng recognized Zheng Meili's voice, but since the other party had no intention of recognizing her, she sat there without moving.
She waited for a while, but Jiang Shan didn't come. She told the waiter and went to the door to check. A little boy of three or four years old hugged her legs and shouted, "Mom."
