After four years of marriage, the military officer husband came back

Xia Qingning didn't expect that after she casually asked him what time it was, he would actually buy her a watch.

Watches are not cheap these days, costing several hundred dollars each.

Thinking about how he had bought so many things for her before, and how he had given so much money to her family when he went back to her parents' home, and how they were now just husband and wife in name only, and were still independent individuals in essence, how could she have the nerve to always take advantage of him, so she waved her hand and said:

"no need."

Lu Jingzhe frowned slightly, and said nothing more. He looked at the dazzling array of watches on the counter, raised his finger and pointed at one of them, and said to the salesperson inside:

"This one."

The salesperson saw that he was wearing a military uniform and had an extraordinary temperament. He also took a special look at the watch on his wrist and saw that it was an imported Rolex. He knew that such a person must not be short of money. He had an idea in his mind. After taking out the watch he chose, he raised his hand and took out a more expensive one and began to introduce it:

"Comrade, you can take another look at this one. It's imported from abroad and very small. This lady has a thin wrist, so it will look better if she wears this thin bracelet. Not only can she tell time, but it can also be used as a decoration, just like a bracelet."

Lu Jingzhe had never had much contact with girls before, and he didn't know what styles girls generally liked. After listening to the boss's introduction, he raised his hand and took it.

Seeing that Lu Jingzhe was about to be persuaded, Xia Qingning hurried over, knowing that he was determined to buy it for her, and it would be hypocritical for her to refuse.

Well, since you are going to buy it, of course you should buy what you like.

She looked at the one recommended by the salesperson, then lowered her head and looked carefully at the other styles on the counter, and finally her eyes fell on the one chosen by Lu Jingzhe.

I saw that the watch had a medium-sized dial without too much decoration around it. It looked simple and elegant. The hands were thinner than those of other watches. It was simple and elegant at the same time.

Watches should be more practical than decorative. She doesn't like fancy ones. Xia Qingning pointed at the one Lu Jingzhe chose and whispered to him:

"I like the one you picked."

It was obviously a simple sentence, but to Lu Jingzhe's ears, it sounded as sweet as the sound of spring water. Looking at the girl in front of him, she had beautiful eyebrows and starry eyes, with a smile on her face. She looked very bright and lovely. Lu Jingzhe responded:

"it is good."

Although it was just one simple word, I could inexplicably hear the meaning of doting in it.

Lu Jingzhe looked at the salesperson and said in a deep voice:

"That's it."

Seeing that both of them liked this one, the salesperson tactfully stopped trying to sell them other items and said with a smile:

"This one is also good. It's two hundred and six dollars in total. Here's the watch box. I'll help you pack it up."

"No need." Lu Jingzhe said, and quickly paid the money, then naturally took Xia Qingning's hand and prepared to help her put it on.

He saw that her wrist was white and thin, like a lotus root ribbon. He tried the watch on her wrist, then carefully adjusted the length of the strap. With a "click", the buckle was secured.

The silver watch looks very beautiful when worn on the fair wrist.

The salesperson handed the box containing the watch to Xia Qingning:

"Please keep the watch box."

Xia Qingning took the watch box, said "thank you", and left the counter with Lu Jingzhe. They were about to leave the department store, but just as they walked to the front, they were stopped by the uncle who sold the camera last time:

"Comrade, comrade, didn't you like this camera very much last time? Do you want to buy one today?"

He recognized Xia Qingning at a glance when he saw her buying a watch just now. In this era, there are very few female comrades who know about cameras, and she is so beautiful, so the boss remembered her immediately. Now that he saw that she bought a watch, he naturally asked her if she needed to buy a camera.

Xia Qingning was about to say "No thanks" when Lu Jingzhe had already walked to the counter and asked the uncle in a calm voice:

"Which one?"

The uncle hurriedly took out the "Seagull" brand camera that Xia Qingning valued last time from the display cabinet, handed it to Lu Jingzhe, and introduced it:

"The optical quality of this camera lens is the best among all the cameras here, and the photos taken are very clear."

This camera looks smaller than other cameras and is very suitable for ladies. Lu Jingzhe took the camera from the boss and found that it looked small but was quite heavy. He held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

Having already bought a watch, Xia Qingning didn't feel comfortable asking him to spend money on a camera. The camera wasn't a necessity, and it was so expensive. Even if he was rich, she didn't want to spend so lavishly. She hurriedly said to Lu Jingzhe:

"No need to buy, let's go."

"This female comrade knows a lot about cameras. She fell in love with this model at first sight when she came to my place last time, but she thought it was too expensive, so she didn't want to buy it." This uncle knows how to do business, and he said to Lu Jingzhe with a smile.

It was obviously hinting to him: Your wife likes it very much, but she just doesn't want to spend the money, so buy it for her quickly.

Xia Qingning was a little anxious, fearing that he would get carried away and really buy it for her after hearing what the uncle said. In a hurry, she called his name without warning:

"Lu Jingzhe."

She seldom called his name. Lu Jingzhe turned to look at her, and saw that she suddenly raised her hand and grabbed his sleeve, gently shook it twice, and said softly:

"Don't buy it. It's getting late. Let's go."

The way she pulled her sleeves was quite cute. This time, Lu Jingzhe did not insist. He put down the camera and said in a deep voice:

"Ah."

Xia Qingning didn't expect him to be so obedient, but she was relieved.

It’s not that she is stingy and reluctant to spend money, it’s just that the money belongs to others. She really doesn’t feel at ease spending so much at once to buy a luxury digital product in an era when many people still can’t get enough food.

"Come back next time when you need it." Seeing that he didn't buy it, the uncle was not angry. He still had a smile on his face and said to the two of them.

"Okay." Lu Jingzhe answered seriously, not at all perfunctorily, then turned to Xia Qingning and said:

"Let's go."

After saying that, the two of them walked out of the department store one after the other.

It takes about fifty minutes to ride a bike from here to the western suburbs. The road in the front is relatively flat, but the closer you get to the suburbs, the bumpier the road becomes. Xia Qingning originally held the things she bought, but when we got to the suburbs, Lu Jingzhe took them from her and hung them on the handlebars.

Because the road was bumpy, Xia Qingning didn't act pretentiously and simply raised her hand to grab Lu Jingzhe's clothes. But even so, she almost lost her balance once or twice.

Only then did Xia Qingning understand why Lu Jingzhe refused her request to buy some fruit. It was good enough that she could sit still on the road, and she would definitely not be able to carry another bag of fruit.

After riding for a distance, the person in front suddenly stopped the bike. His long legs naturally hung on the ground, supporting the bike easily. Then he took Xia Qingning's hand from behind him and wrapped it around his waist.
