Back to that night, she flirted with the cold-faced rough man

Chapter 33

The commune is obviously much more lively than the brigade. There are all kinds of people here, and their clothes are much better. Unlike the farmers, they don’t wear the same clothes for three to five years, and they are covered with patches.

The two men entered the supply and marketing cooperative, and were shocked to see a slogan posted in the cooperative that read "Beating or scolding customers is strictly prohibited." This shows how arrogant the salespeople of that era were.

Bai Ying came to the cloth, shoes and hats area and started choosing the fabrics she wanted to buy.

Huang Xia pointed to a roll of gray-blue fabric and said, "Yingzi, look at this color of fabric. It makes people look mature."

Mature?

Bai Ying's mouth twitched. Is he too mature?

It's not like the previous years when the situation was so strict that people had to be careful about how they dressed, and if someone found an opportunity, they would criticize them. Now the overall situation is not as strict as before, and people's clothes have many more colors.

The color Huang Xia chose was obviously not for a girl of Bai Ying's age to wear. It would be more accurate to say that the fabric was chosen for Huang Xia herself rather than for her.

Even if I take this fabric back, I can't make clothes for her, so in the end it will be sold cheaply to Huang Xia. I have to say that her sister-in-law is really thoughtful.

If Bai Ying was really the same as in her previous life, a girl who was too embarrassed to express any opinions or contradict her sister-in-law Huang Xia, then maybe after buying the fabric, she would really give it to Huang Xia at a low price.

Bai Ying naturally wouldn't be fooled. She stared at Huang Xia with a pair of clear eyes, "Sister-in-law, it's a good thing you followed me and helped me open my eyes. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know what color clothes to wear to the wedding. Sister-in-law, you are so good to me, you are simply my own sister-in-law!"

"Puchi!" The saleswoman at the side couldn't stand it any longer. She glanced at Huang Xia and said, "Who's little girl would buy this color of cloth for her wedding?"

She had worked in the supply and marketing cooperative for several years and had seen many people coming and going. In her opinion, this sister-in-law clearly had bad intentions and was deliberately making fun of her own sister-in-law.

The salesperson didn't give Huang Xia any face at all, and rarely took the initiative to greet Bai Ying, "Little girl, don't listen to your sister-in-law. Look at how festive the red of this cloth is! Once it's finished, you can wear the dress not only for weddings, but also for daily wear. You'll look like a city girl when you put it on."

"Thank you, saleswoman," Bai Ying said with a sweet smile, "but I don't want to buy cloth. I want to buy a skirt directly. Can you recommend one?"

I have to go back and get some cloth to help Chu Xianglan sew clothes. My mother's eyesight has always been poor, and in her previous life, she went blind because of crying because of her and my second brother. I have to protect her eyes well in this life. I absolutely cannot let my mother sew clothes at night by lighting a kerosene lamp.

Especially when she came, Shen Ao told her that she could spend the money he gave her without worry.

Well...the marriage certificate has been submitted anyway, and the marriage certificate will be issued soon. The two will be husband and wife soon. There is really no need for her to save money. She might as well just buy ready-made clothes.

With the salesperson's recommendation, Bai Ying finally picked out two pieces of clothing.

A machine-knitted white sweater paired with a maroon plaid corduroy suspender skirt with a tightened waist design is very suitable for girls of Bai Ying's age and can be worn when going out.

The sweater cost 6.2 yuan, the skirt cost 13.5 yuan, and I also bought a pair of white cotton tights for 2.1 yuan and a pair of women's cloth shoes with drawstrings for 3.8 yuan. They were made of black cloth with a white bottom and a white orchid embroidered on the upper, which looked smart and cute.

"The total is twenty-five dollars and sixty cents," said the salesperson.

Huang Xia's eyes widened when she heard this, "How much?!"

A set of clothes costs nearly thirty yuan? It's even more expensive than the betrothal gift she received when she got married!

The subsidy Bai Ying received was only twenty yuan. How much money did her parents-in-law subsidize Bai Ying privately?

Huang Xia was almost irritated by Bai Ying's extravagant spending. She could only pinch her own Ren Zhong repeatedly, fearing that she would faint from anger in the next second.

However, this was not what made Huang Xia most upset.

After buying clothes, Bai Ying did not leave the supply and marketing cooperative. Instead, she asked the salesperson to bring her another pair of men's shoes. "I also want to buy a pair of shoes for my partner."
