Yu Sui had never paid attention to precious metals before. He only knew about gold and platinum. This was the first time he heard of purple gold.
Xia Lin replied, "An old comrade who knows the business said that purple gold isn't as expensive as gold, but it gets brighter the more you wear it, and it's very beautiful. Girls love it, and the Russians use it as a wedding gift. Oh, there were people selling emeralds, and the knowledgeable ones said emeralds are better and we should buy emeralds. But I think rubies look good, and you have fair skin, and rubies look so festive against it, so I bought you a ruby one. Do you think it's okay?"
Xia Lin said this while observing Yu Sui's expression, afraid that she didn't like it.
Yu Sui looked at the pendant over and over again and found that it was indeed something very attractive.
From her unprofessional perspective, the purity of this ruby was very good, but the cutting was not up to par. The purple gold texture of the outer shell had a special beauty, and the ridges on the edge were also very exotic.
Yu Sui held it to her chest and compared it: "It looks pretty good. I'll braid a string and hang it around my neck tonight. This must have cost a lot of money, right?"
Seeing that she liked it, Xia Linbei grinned happily: "As long as you like it, why bother talking about money? Isn't my money supposed to be given to you?"
This genuine joy, these unconcealed words, made Yu Sui feel extremely happy as well. She leaned over and kissed him, "Thank you for thinking of me, but you don't have to buy these for me in the future. Let's save the money first. When the national policies change in the future, we can have the money to do what we want."
Unfortunately, Xia Linbei's mind was filled with his wife at the moment, and he didn't understand the hint at all. He just thought his wife was so nice and even kissed him, which made him so excited that he hugged Yu Sui's head and kissed her.
This time, I couldn't control the kiss.
The two hugged each other, and saw anticipation in each other's eyes. Their hands and feet seemed to be uncontrollable and wanted to hug each other tighter and tighter, wishing they could embed themselves into each other's bones.
Unfortunately, there was a knock on the door outside, and there was also a deliberately suppressed laugh: "Captain Xia, Captain Xia, I heard that my sister-in-law is here, please show her to us!"
Xia Lin shook his head helplessly: "These guys just can't stand seeing me doing well. Oh! You sit down, I'll go chase them away."
Yu Sui: "Hey, they are all your comrades. You are in a hurry today and will come again tomorrow. You might as well let them in openly. Anyway, I brought you a lot of things for them. Go open the door."
Xia Lin asked: "Did you bring back those sweets and other things?"
"Yes. I also made you some dried meat and some stir-fried snacks that I made myself."
While the two of them were talking, the others outside couldn't wait any longer and banged on the door, shouting, "Sister-in-law, did you bring anything delicious? Sister-in-law?"
Xia Linbei then went to open the door: "You guys can't wait like this!"
A few olive-green guys rushed in and started chattering outside: "Hey, who said the candy was so delicious last time? How about it, did my sister-in-law bring any? Even if we give her one, we won't bother her, okay?"
Yu Sui opened her luggage bag, took out some of the prepared items, and walked out openly: "Hello everyone, I brought some local specialties that I made myself. Everyone, come one by one."
The few people who were lively and noisy just now suddenly became quiet.
These soldiers were very young. Although they came in noisily, when they really saw the unfamiliar female comrades, some of them were very shy and blushed. Only the bolder ones stammered and called out "sister-in-law".
They all had a common feature: their skin was somewhat dark, some had frostbite on their faces, and their lips were generally chapped.
That kind of spirit and energy, which is mostly due to soldiers, is really not something that rural members can possess.
Yu Sui opened the big bag in her hand and put the things she brought on the table: "If you don't mind, just eat it."
The young men finally regained their energy and rushed to the table to get food.
First they asked "What is this?" and "What is that?", then they scrambled to eat. After a while, a large bag of food disappeared, but they started talking more.
Some said: "It's delicious, sister-in-law, did you really make this yourself?"
Some asked: "Sister-in-law, what's in that dried meat? It smells so good!"
Yu Sui answered their questions one by one, and the young men praised Yu Sui even more.
"Sister-in-law is really good, she knows everything."
"Sister-in-law, if you have anything delicious, don't forget us."
One of them even asked, "Sister-in-law, last time Captain Xia wore a pair of shoes, high-tops with wool inside. He said you made them, and they were so warm. Sometimes we borrow his shoes when we go on duty in the snow, and they keep our feet warm for a long time!"
Someone pulled him: "Hey, hey, hey, stop talking, you're wearing the company commander's shoes, your sister-in-law will be unhappy!"
The young man pouted helplessly and whispered, "Oh, if only my sister-in-law was my real sister-in-law, I could ask her to make a pair for me too."
This made everyone laugh: "You are so beautiful!"
Yu Sui looked at these people and felt a strange feeling in her heart.
To be honest, in her previous life, she spent most of her time thinking about how to make good handicrafts in order to attract more fans so that she could convert traffic into money faster. However, now that she came here and saw these people, she felt a lot of emotion in her heart.
The motherland has a long border and there are still various problems now, but these young people are stationed on the border without regrets and without any complaints.
How rare!
Yu Sui smiled: "Little brother, I'm here as a temporary worker, so I don't have time to make shoes for everyone. But I have a paper pattern of that kind of shoes. I'll make a copy for you later, and you can ask someone to make it for you, okay?"
The young man's eyes sparkled: "Okay, okay, sister-in-law, give me a shoe pattern and I'll find someone to make it."
Everyone else was vying for their hand.
Some said: "I want it too. I'll ask my partner at home to do it for me."
The relationship was exposed: "Wake up, you don't have a partner!"
It made everyone laugh.
The atmosphere was particularly good. Yu Sui noticed that many of the hands stretched out to her had frostbite marks on them.
Yu Sui went to the inner room and took out a few small bottles and a piece of paper and placed them on the table:
"This is an anti-freeze and anti-crack ointment I made myself. If you're out on duty, you can apply it on your lips, hands, or face. I've given you the recipe. If you find it useful, you can ask my family to make it for you. The ingredients aren't hard to come by."
Several people were fighting over it and almost got into a fight. It was like having a bunch of kids at home, it was so lively.
Xia Lin couldn't stand it anymore and pushed these people out: "That's enough, you've eaten and taken, hurry up and leave."
Everyone was unwilling and helpless, with envy in their eyes, complaining that Xia Linba didn't want his brothers anymore since he had a sister-in-law, and was pushed out of the door.
Yu Sui and Xia Linbei smiled at each other in the room. Xia Linbei raised her chin high and said, "See? Everyone is so jealous. I'm the only one who has such a good wife!"
