This is the oldest department store in the capital. Before entering the department store, she had heard that sales clerks nowadays would decide their attitude based on the customer's clothes.

If I were wearing the clothes I just bought at the black market, I can imagine the salesperson's expression. I go shopping for comfort, not to cause trouble.

So I went into the space in advance, washed my face, changed into clean clothes, and combed my hair into a high ponytail.

This department store is four stories high and covers a large area. The building can be considered high-end and classy in this era.

Most of the people who come here to buy things are well-off families or young couples who are buying things for their wedding.

So when Xu Niannian walked into the hall, the number of people he saw was not as many as the people queuing up to buy pork at the supply and marketing cooperative in the morning.

Women's clothing is on the second floor, and as soon as you go up you can see a wide variety of clothes.

Although people of this era generally wore gray, black, and white, department stores were indeed at the forefront of fashion, so there were still many styles of clothing available.

She even vaguely saw wide-leg pants, but they were still not popular and were put in a corner.

Summer women's clothing is mainly skirts, and Xu Niannian also plans to buy a skirt. After all, it is a blind date, not a job.

Soon, a denim dress that was being promoted at the door caught her attention. This dress slightly pinched the waist among many other dresses that didn’t show the waist.

She was just about to ask the salesperson to take it off for her so that she could compare it in front of the mirror.

Then I heard a familiar voice behind me:

"Conghao, look at that dress, I quite like it."

Xu Niannian frowned. Wasn't this Xu Ruhua's voice? Could it be that they had met their enemies?

Thinking of the scumbag, she immediately lost interest in the dress and was about to leave.

Then she heard someone behind her pulling her back:

"Niannian, you won't talk to me when you see your sister now?"

Xu Niannian clenched his fists, turned around, and sure enough, it was that pair of pretentious people.

He Conghao looked at Xu Niannian with a complicated look. He really liked this little girl at the beginning, but she was too immature and too aggressive. Just like his mother said, when getting married, one should find someone who understands his feelings.

A long time ago, his mother had criticized him, saying that Xu Niannian had a vixen-like appearance and a small butt, and that he didn't look like someone who could give birth to a son or be able to work.

Let him know the limits and never marry her home.

It only took him two years to go from being annoyed by her mother's words at first, to becoming numb to them, and finally for Xu Ruhua to break into his world.

When we met again after half a year, it felt like a lifetime ago. Her features had become more delicate, and her peach blossom eyes seemed to be telling me why I abandoned her.

Those who were attracted once would indeed be attracted again, and he clenched his fists at his sides.

The moment Xu Niannian turned around, Xu Ruhua was stunned for a moment. She judged that it was Xu Niannian based on her height, body shape and clothes.

How come after being so hungry, Xu Niannian became thinner, whiter, and more tender, and even had some of the temperament that her descendants described.

She pursed her lips, retracted her hand, and said nonchalantly:

"Conghao finally came back and insisted on buying me clothes. I had no choice."

Xu Niannian's mouth twitched:

"Is your family so poor that they can't afford to buy you clothes? You're not even married yet and you're asking for clothes. I'll ask you when I get back. I'll tell you how I taught you."

Xu Ruhua was stunned for a moment. She wanted to show off, so why didn't she play by the rules? She regretted it a little and stopped herself.

This time Conghao also said that he wanted to go to her house to settle the matter. After she had finally managed to get away with it, this put her in a difficult position again. Should she agree or not?

However, after reacting quickly, she lowered her head in grievance, her tone full of tenderness:

"It's all my fault, but please don't speak so loudly outside. You're disturbing others."

Xu Niannian glanced at the people who were shopping around her. They all had rosy faces and looked very impressive while shopping in the mall. They really knew how to put on hats.

She waved her hands quickly:

"It stinks, sister, you haven't brushed your teeth for a few days."

After hearing this, Xu Ruhua blew a breath into her palm.

People nowadays are not so particular. Toothpaste is very expensive, costing one dollar a tube.

After her rebirth, she paid great attention to hygiene. Her toothpaste had just run out and she had not had time to restock it, but she also rinsed her mouth with salt water in the morning.

"I don't smell anything at all."

When he looked up, he saw Xu Niannian's sly smile, and he knew she was playing a trick on him, so he raised his hand to slap her:

"How dare you play tricks on me?"

Before she knew it, she had blurted out her catchphrase from her previous life.

However, Xu Niannian caught the hand steadily. She had eaten a meat bun on the road and was very full after the meal.

When she was caught, Xu Ruhua didn't think that she couldn't hit him, but that she had just said the wrong thing.

He looked at He Conghao in a panic, not knowing whether the other party would misunderstand him.

Xu Niannian pushed her back and released her wrist:

"Good sister, go and continue to pretend to be elegant and generous. Don't forget how you beat me when no one is at home."

As he said this, he pulled up his clothes, revealing a little redness and swelling on his arm, which looked quite scary.

She came out today to buy clothes and had no intention of lingering on the battlefield. After saying this, she left.

As for whether He Conghao would believe it or not, she didn't care. She just wanted to sow a seed of doubt.

Maybe it will be useful at some point in the future.

Xu Ruhua couldn't hold it anymore, and couldn't control her voice:

"I didn't, don't talk nonsense."

But her aura seemed to be able to kill people, and there was a hint of ferocity on her face.

She could never have imagined that the naive and foolish girl would actually trick her today.

She didn't dare to look, but had to turn her head to meet He Conghao's gaze.

It was a complicated look.

Because he grew up with Xu Niannian, even if she became willful and domineering when he was not around, he always believed that she would not lie.

Yes, Xu Ruhua is her stepsister. Maybe he trusted other people too much in the past.

Without considering whether the other party is pretending or lying.

A date that ended unpleasantly.

When Xu Ruhua returned home, she was so angry that she told her mother all her grievances.

Xu Niannian was still strolling around the mall. The quality of the clothes in this mall is very good, both the style and the fabric are great.

She walked around and finally chose a piece of braid with a very delicate collar and cuffs, a ruffled neckline, and a retro Hong Kong color. If the times had allowed it, she would have wanted to perm her hair into big waves, which would have made her look much better.

When I asked about the price, I found out that the skirt was very beautiful and the price was even more beautiful. It cost 20 yuan, which was equivalent to the monthly income of an ordinary worker.
