Chapter 70: Jiaojiao is spoiled by the rough man

"Besides, am I not considering the whole family? Didn't I put all the things I bought back in the hall? I took them back to my own room because I saw you didn't need them. Don't say anything."

Not wanting to argue with Jiang Panhua again, Su Wanwan nodded vaguely, "I won't say much, I'll just remind you, Third Sister-in-law, do you know that these cosmetics have a shelf life? You bought four or five bottles of vanishing cream, and by the time you use up the last bottle, it might have expired, and the contents would have solidified."

Su Di was looking for reasons to persuade Jiang Panhua not to buy so many things. As soon as Su Wanwan said that, he immediately picked up a few bottles and jars and wanted to put them on the counter.

Jiang Panhua did not expect Su Wanwan to say this. It was as if her blind spot had been touched upon. She stared blankly at her husband as he put most of the cosmetics back on the counter in a daze.

"Okay, I think these are enough. These will be enough for you, sister-in-law, to use for a while. At least they can last until the end of the first month of the year." Su Wanwan simply counted the few small bottles and jars left in front of Jiang Panhua, and asked the shop owner for a bag with satisfaction.

Only after all the cosmetics were packed into the bag did Jiang Panhua reluctantly hold her bag and walk behind Su Wanwan with a gloomy face. The group completely left the supply and marketing cooperative.

"I want some candy, aunt! I want some candy!" Qinggui wanted to eat the same candy that she saw Su Wanwan eating last time, and this time she was extremely impatient.

"Okay, okay." Although Su Wanwan was being led by the little guy and agreed readily, she really didn't know where to buy that kind of candy. She had to walk forward while looking at Xu Yan who was walking beside her with a pleading look.

Why is Xu Yan always smiling at her?

Su Wanwan looked at Xu Yan several times and found that this guy didn't have any other expression except smiling at her.

Didn't he understand her request for help?

"Is this a shop selling candy?" Xiao Qinggui was illiterate, so she would look carefully at the door of every shop she passed by.

Su Wanwan stared at the sign of the tailor shop in front of them and decided to remain silent.

"That's great, let's go in and take a look at the fabric." Zhao Ying pulled Jiang Shuzhen and pushed the door open.

Since a day has been set aside specifically to purchase New Year's goods in the county town, it is also necessary to make one or two pieces of clothing for each member of the Su family.

This is the only tailor shop on the street, so she naturally couldn't avoid it today. Su Wanwan gave Qinggui a "helpless" look and quickly followed her mother Zhao Ying into the store.

The waiter who was walking with the big guy in the distance was still sitting on a chair by the roadside, with no intention of following in.

The tailor shop didn't look very eye-catching from the outside, but once they walked in, they saw that the walls were covered with cloth, which was much more upscale than the shops they had seen in the town.

Zhao Ying looked left and right several times before walking to the counter. Suddenly, he discovered that there were many ready-made clothes hanging on the wall behind the counter.

In the past, when they went to the town to get clothes tailored, they would select the material in advance, then ask the shop owner to measure their sizes and make the clothes according to the material. Often after selecting the material, they would have to wait for a while before getting the new clothes. Even if they asked someone to work overtime to make them, they would not be able to get them immediately.

Although they had heard that in recent years many young people liked to buy ready-made clothes, and did not want to wait for them even if they did not fit, and that this trend had gradually spread to small places like theirs, it was the first time they saw an entire wall filled with ready-made clothes in such a large shop, which really shocked their mother Zhao Ying and others.

The first person to react was Jiang Panhua, who was already carrying a bag of cosmetics. She pointed to a rose-red tweed dress hanging on the top shelf, and said with joy, "Can you take that down so I can see it?"

Material like this is easy to buy, but this color is not so easy to get. It takes some time to select the material and make it into clothes. The Chinese New Year is approaching, and if the selected material is not used to make new clothes by the Chinese New Year, it would be a waste of time.

She really likes this ready-made garment.

The shop owner took down the top women's rose-red wool coat, took the hanger off and handed it to Jiang Panhua.

Jiang Shuzhen and Zhao Ying also reacted and turned to look at Jiang Panhua. They saw her take off her coat and put on the new clothes easily. She turned back and forth twice and observed the details.

"How is it? Does this dress suit me?"

After all, the clothes were not made according to Jiang Panhua's body shape. Although they fit her well, the sleeves were still a little long and the hem of the clothes was a little longer than the original design.

Everyone looked at Jiang Panhua who happily turned around twice, and no one spoke first.

"Um, let me ask...how much does this dress cost?" The third brother Su Di had always only gone out with his mother Zhao Ying to buy material for clothes and had never bought a ready-made garment. Although he stared at Jiang Panhua wearing the new dress for a long time, he still asked hesitantly in a low voice.

"Oh, clothes like this save processing fees, but because they are made in advance, they cannot be returned or exchanged. If you want to modify them, you have to do it on the spot. If you bring them back for modification later, you will have to pay extra. And the clothes made in advance are definitely much more expensive than these materials."

As if he could see some of Su Di's embarrassment, the shop owner spoke in a kind tone, but he also explained all the problems clearly in one breath. Su Wanwan nodded as she listened, and her eyes moved away from Jiang Panhua to look at other clothes hanging on the wall.

If I could buy these ready-made clothes directly, I would save the step of waiting for them to be made, and I wouldn't have to find a way to come to the county town to pick them up next time.

Looking at it this way, it’s a lot easier, and it’s no different from buying clothes decades later.

"Mom, I think this is a good idea. It will be much easier if we can just buy clothes and bring them home." Su Wanwan said to Zhao Ying with a smile.

After hearing what Su Wanwan said, Zhao Ying wanted to nod, but then she looked at the shop owner: "How much is the one she chose?"

"This one was made by Nizi. The fabric is thick and it can be worn for ten or eight years without any problem. It's just a bit expensive, only nine dollars." The boss's eyes swept over the dress Jiang Panhua was wearing and he answered with a smile.

As soon as the price was announced, Jiang Panhua's originally cheerful face became visibly embarrassed, and she shook her head imperceptibly at the shop owner's mother, Zhao Ying.

"Nine dollars is enough to make two sets of clothes." The eldest brother Su Gao is always outspoken. When he heard the price, he immediately blurted out his thoughts without hesitation.

"Talk less." Jiang Shuzhen stood very close to Su Gao this time. As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Shuzhen pulled him closer and reminded him in a low voice.

"Nine dollars is indeed a bit expensive. I wonder how long it will take to pick up the clothes after they are made at your house?" Zhao Ying cleared his throat.
