Arriving on the third floor, Zhang Yuwan first checked out the appliances, bypassing the TV and heading straight for the washing machine. Looking at the simple twin-tub model, she felt a pang of sadness. It was still semi-manual! Although most of her clothes were delicate and needed hand washing or dry cleaning, she was still willing to buy a fully automatic washing machine.

It would be great if I could go abroad, buy all the home appliances I like, and pick out some expensive furniture or even antique furniture. Zhang Yuwan was silently thinking about how to go abroad.

Seeing Zhang Yuwan hesitating in front of the washing machine, Song Changzhou asked the salesperson directly, "Hello, comrade, how much is this washing machine?"

There were hardly any people on the third floor. This washing machine had been there for almost a year, and while many people had looked at it, no one had bought it. The salesperson was surprisingly nice. "Comrade, this washing machine is the latest model, Lotus brand, and of very good quality. Now it's 380 yuan and you need a washing machine ticket."

"Comrade, do you have a refrigerator?" Zhang Yuwan asked.

"Yes, the refrigerator costs 685 yuan and you need a refrigerator ticket." The salesperson looked at the two people in front of her with some surprise. They were dressed appropriately, especially the woman who, although in a wheelchair, had a delicate face and noble manners. It was obvious that she was well-fed. Although she had not seen many wealthy people, Zhang Yuwan's clothes were not ostentatious, but she did not look like an ordinary person.

Nowadays, material conditions are limited and incomes are not high. People would rather buy a TV than spend money on a washing machine and a refrigerator. It is too luxurious to spend money on something that can be done by hand. There is no need for a refrigerator either. Every family has a food quota, and not many wealthy people need a refrigerator.

"What do you think?" Song Changzhou asked Zhang Yuwan what he meant.

"Do you have a ticket?"

"You can't get it back today. You have to wait for me to exchange the ticket."

Song Changzhou shook his head, but these two tickets were easy to get. He could exchange them for sewing tickets and watch tickets. These two tickets were in high demand and very popular. He could exchange them for them, and if that didn't work, he could also ask on the black market.

"Although the refrigerator is a bit small, it is enough for the two of us. The only problem is that the washing machine is not a drum. Hmm, let's buy one first! We can get a better one in the future when we have the chance." She even wants to add a dishwasher, oven, dryer and a washing machine for underwear.

Song Changzhou felt that he had underestimated his wife's living standard, but he could buy the radio today.

The salesperson next to him took a breath quietly and said, "Oh my god, what kind of family is this? They complain that the washing machine is not good enough. What should a good one be like?"

A washing machine plus industrial roller costs almost 500 yuan!

"Let's decide on this!" Zhang Yuwan didn't have any requirements for the radio, as long as it could be used. She didn't care about the brand, she didn't understand anything about it.

A radio costs 38 yuan plus a radio industry ticket, and a Phoenix brand women's bicycle costs 128 yuan plus a bicycle ticket.

The washing machine, camera and refrigerator have to wait for the tickets to be exchanged.

Zhang Yuwan didn't like the fabric sofa, so she chose a three-person rattan sofa and coffee table, a rattan lounge chair, and a single wide rattan chair with a sponge cushion. It looked simple and rustic, and the price was surprisingly pleasant. The whole set cost more than 80 yuan including a furniture ticket.

I bought two more glass cabinets, one as a sideboard and the other to store my collection.

Zhang Yuwan didn't like the rest, she wanted to customize them or buy some antique furniture.

Zhang Yuwan saw that there were purple clay teapots next to the teapots for sale, so he picked up a set and flipped through it to see the signature, which was Wang Yinchun. He then looked at the price, took a breath, and bought it!

I flipped over the back of another purple clay teapot and bought it!

She had to buy the whole set. Her father would probably not be able to sleep well if he had to pay less than 50 yuan for two sets of master-level purple clay teapots.

His father only had one set of top-quality old items, which were handmade by Wang Yinchun and cost a few hundred yuan at the time.

This kind of thing is hard to come by, and Zhang Yuwan feels that if he has nothing to do, he can really buy some things that appreciate in value and keep them in his hands.

All the spending on these two sets of purple clay today is worth it, as they will be worth hundreds of thousands of times more in the future.

Besides, there is nothing wrong with using different teapots for different teas.

She also picked out a set of enameled porcelain tea sets, which were more feminine. She liked all kinds of pottery, porcelain and glassware, which also cost more than ten yuan.

If you add it up, I spent more than a thousand today, mainly because the home appliances, clothes and shoes are more expensive. It is said that the broken house is worth a fortune, and the miscellaneous things in the house seem worthless, so it is not a small amount of money to buy them all.

In a few days, I will buy a washing machine and a refrigerator, and build a few sets of furniture. The total cost will be about three thousand.

"Changzhou, let's go to the garbage station again in the next two days! Just in case there are any old furniture or something that can be cleaned up and used." Zhang Yuwan wanted to see if there was anything that could be picked up.

Song Changzhou had no objection, Zhang Yuwan's opinion was his opinion.

How to decorate the house is mainly based on the hostess's preferences.

After purchasing, Song Changzhou found a deliveryman to deliver the furniture to his home.

The things had just been delivered to the gate of the family quarters. I registered and checked the goods on the truck before arriving at my doorstep. I saw many older sisters and sisters-in-law chatting at the door.

Seeing them pulling a cart of things back, everyone gathered around and looked at what they bought curiously.

Captain Zhao's wife, Mrs. Wang, loved to join in the fun and was very loud. Looking at the truckload of furniture and other shopping items, she couldn't help but sigh, "Deputy Regimental Commander Song must have spent a lot of money on these things! Let me tell you, the things in the department store are really expensive!"

Song Changzhou said to his sisters-in-law, "We'll have everything ready someday so please come to my house and have a seat. You sisters-in-law must come to the wedding!"

Song Changzhou first took the wheelchair down, and when he wanted to pick up Zhang Yuwan, Zhang Yuwan quickly said, "Changzhou, go and do your work first! I want to stand for a while. My waist is sore after sitting all day."

Looking at Zhang Yuwan's coquettish expression, he leaned his back against the car door, holding the medical record rolled into a roll in his hand.

Song Changzhou said to his sisters-in-law, "Sisters-in-law, please help take care of it. I'll move the things first."

Sister Li was standing next to their family and said warmly, "Don't worry! It won't get lost."

"That's right, just go and do your thing! There are so many of us here!"

Amidst the banter and banter of his sisters-in-law, Song Changzhou began to unload and move things with the driver.

"Xiao Zhang, right? You are an educated youth, right? Oh, look how white you are! How can you look like someone who works in the fields every day? When I was in my hometown, I worked in the fields every day and rolled in the mud. I was not so delicate and tender. Don't you work at all?" The speaker was Sister Huang, Captain Zheng's wife, who also came from the countryside to join the army.

"Sister-in-law! I can't get tanned by the sun. I turn red every day, but I turn white after a rest!" Zhang Yuwan took the opportunity to attract some hatred.

Only you understand!

"How much did you spend on all these things?" Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up eagerly.

The other sisters-in-law also listened attentively. Although it was normal for a newlywed to buy some things, buying so many things at once was quite a big expense!

Zhang Yuwan smiled with sincerity and clarity, "We just got married and have nothing at home. We'll buy the most important things first. For the rest, we plan to buy some defective furniture from a furniture factory or have a carpenter make a set."

She looked pained and reluctant again. "These things cost more than 200 yuan, which is several months' salary for our Song Changzhou. Later, I didn't want to use the sewing machine anymore. In life, you have to save money. Otherwise, I would feel uneasy about spending so much money!"

"I don't know if this is the right thing to do. I'm young and don't understand. My parents are far away and there's no one to talk to me."
