Su Qingmeng checked the watches at the counter. The one she was wearing before was her grandmother's, but it was running slow, so she wanted to get a new one. They happened to have a watch ticket, and she took a fancy to the Shanghai Gem Flower watch, which was a bit expensive at 120 yuan.
Lin Xiuyao said, "If you like it, buy it." He asked the salesperson to issue a receipt. The salesperson looked at them. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. She said, "Young lady, listen to your partner. A man who spends money on you means he cares about you. Are you getting married?" Marriage is a three-turn and one-ring thing nowadays. She had just seen them buying bicycles.
Su Qingmeng was embarrassed. "We are married." The salesperson said, "Your lover is so considerate, you must have married the right person."
After being teased by the elder sister, the two left the counter and went downstairs to buy candy at the food counter. They bought a lot and wanted to mail one to their hometown.
"Su Qingmeng!" She heard someone calling her. She turned around and saw Gao Qin, holding a little girl's hand. "Are you here to buy something too?"
"Yes, the New Year is coming soon, let's buy some New Year's goods. Is this your daughter?" She knew Gao Qin had a five-year-old child.
Gao Qin nudged the little girl and said, "Yes, Tangtang, call me Aunt Su."
The little girl's voice was clear and crisp, "Hello, Auntie Su!" Su Qingmeng took out a White Rabbit candy from her bag, "Hello, Tangtang, here, I'll give you some candy."
Gao Qin asked, "Aren't you going back to your hometown for the New Year?" Today is the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month.

Gao Qin said, "It's great. The New Year celebrations in Beijing are quite lively this year." She enthusiastically recommended a few markets. "You can go and have a look. I heard there are performances."
Su Qingmeng thanked him, said a few more words and then said goodbye. Lin Xiuyao asked, "Is this also your roommate? I don't think I've seen her much."
Su Qingmeng: "We are not from the same department, and we are not very familiar with each other. It seems that you have never seen him before."
The two bought donkey rolls and honey-sliced jujube paste pastries at the dim sum counter. After leaving the department store, Lin Xiuyao went to Xinhua Bookstore and bought a book on basic scientific animal husbandry.
Now that reform and opening up have taken place, there are no restrictions on animal husbandry in rural areas, and these books can be used by the team.
On the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, according to custom, they did a thorough cleaning. The two of them simply cleaned the house, and it was not dirty, and there was not much garbage. The daily garbage was just kitchen waste and toilet paper. The unused items were thrown into the warehouse, and they would be taken out later as souvenirs with a sense of age.
