I didn't expect that these little gadgets on the counter would cost more than four hundred yuan for a watch. They looked insignificant, but they turned out to be so expensive.
Chen Jianguo had never bought a watch before, so he was a little surprised when he heard that it cost so much money.
Just this little thing, which is neither food nor drink, costs him more than a year's salary.
Jiang Baige also thought that it was just for the convenience of checking the time, so what was the point of buying such an expensive one.
Besides, I have to carry it with me to work. If I buy such an expensive thing and it gets bumped or scratched, I will have to replace it. I will be so sad.
She returned the watch without any expression of reluctance.
"Comrade, give me a cheap one! It would be a shame to break such a good one."
Chen Jianguo also thought so. He still had to go to work, so there was no need to buy such good things.
I thought to myself, “When I have enough money, I will buy this piece and give it to Baige to play with.”
He thought about it and unconsciously raised the corners of his lips.
When he heard it was cheap, the salesperson took out an ordinary-looking watch from the corner of the cabinet.
It’s a small piece, the dial and strap are very thin, but fortunately it’s exquisite.
He asked, "Comrade, how about this? It's only one hundred and fifty, one industrial ticket."
“This is affordable and looks good.”
Jiang Baige took it and compared it on her wrist. It was a small piece, but quite nice.
Chen Jianguo stood behind her, watching quietly, thinking, "This hand bowl is so thin and white, it looks really good when worn."
His eyes fell on Jiang Baige's wrist, and he swallowed unconsciously.
After realizing it, he secretly cursed himself for being useless.
What were you thinking about in broad daylight? If the girl knew, she would definitely call me a hooligan.
The price was reasonable. Jiang Baige smiled and said, "Comrade, I want this one. Cut the label off for me! I'll take it with me."
Jiang Baige took out money and tickets from her pocket while looking at the salesperson's face.
The salesperson didn't expect that she hadn't sold a single watch in two months, but she actually sold one today.
Jiang Baige took out the money and tickets and placed them on the counter.
"Comrade, count."
The salesperson looked at the stack of money and industrial tickets on the counter and immediately started laughing, with the corners of his mouth stretching to his ears.
"Okay! Comrade, wait a minute, I'll go get some scissors to cut the tag for you."
When Chen Jianguo saw Jiang Baige taking out money, he secretly hated himself for not bringing any money today, otherwise he wouldn't have to hide behind and keep silent.
Jiang Baige put on the watch she had been longing for and was in a good mood.
Turning to Chen Jianguo, he said, "Let's go! Aren't you going to buy some candy for Jiaojiao? Hurry up and buy it. I'm going back."
Chen Jianguo held up a bag of candy in his hand and said, "I've already bought it."
After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Jiang Baige went to the place where she was waiting for the bus.
She glanced at her watch. It was already half past ten in the morning. If she returned to the village, it would be four or five in the afternoon.
After waiting for a while, the car arrived. Chen Jianguo helped her get on the car and bought her a ticket.
With a look of reluctance, he said, "Bai Ge, please be careful on the road."
Jiang Baige couldn't help but frown when she heard him call her that.
He said uncomfortably: "Comrade Chen, could you please not call me by my name like that? I'm not used to it."
Her colleagues used to call her by the code name Pigeon, but she didn't think it was a big deal at the time.
She was not used to hearing him call her Baige.
Chen Jianguo paused. What else could he call her if not Baige? Comrade Jiang? That sounded too unfamiliar. He didn't want that.
The car started, and Chen Jianguo waved his hand. "Then can I call you Xiaobai?"
Sticking his head out, Jiang Baige said, "No."
I thought to myself, "It's like a superior calling a subordinate. I might as well call him White Dove!"
Chen Jianguo watched the car leave and wished he could go back too.
I stay in this county town all day. How long will it take for me to find a wife?
There are so many young men in the village, including educated youth from the city. If anyone takes over first, he will have no chance.
When the car disappeared from view, Chen Jianguo hurried to the armed forces department.
Jiang Baige got off the bus in the town, came to a secluded place, and took out a bicycle from the space.
After being here for so long, now is the time when she is most free.
She didn't put the bicycle back into the space until she was almost at the village entrance. She glanced at her watch. It was five o'clock in the afternoon. Having a watch was really convenient.
He took out a bag of things from the space and went home happily.
It would take some time before work was done, so she could only go back to Grandma Meng's house first.
When I arrived at the door of my house, I saw that it was ajar and there was a rustling sound in the yard.
When I opened the door, I saw Grandma Meng weeding in the yard.
Hearing the sound, Grandma Meng asked loudly, "Who is it?"
Jiang Baige walked in with a smile, "Grandma Meng, I'm back."
Grandma Meng dropped the grass in her hand and stood up excitedly.
"You're back. Come inside quickly. Are you hungry?"
She said she would come back yesterday, but when the evening came, she still didn't come back.
The old lady was worried all night and waited for another day today, thinking that something had happened to her outside.
Jiang Baige put the things on her back on the ground, closed the door, and went to help Grandma Meng.
"Let's go! Go inside."
"Grandma Meng, your hand is not convenient. Didn't I tell you not to move?"
Grandma Meng smiled and said, "My bones have become stiff from lying down all day. It's good to move around."
Jiang Baige helped her into the house and took out the medicine she had bought. "You have to keep taking these medicines. You'll be fine after you finish them."
Grandma Meng patted her hands and said, "I, an old woman, will enjoy the happiness with you."
