Chapter 71 Buying a sewing machine for a lover comrade

"This is a gift from Xu Ying, thanking you for helping her find her job in the cafeteria." Li Wenxiu took out a pack of cigarettes and handed them to Wang Lin, "Hongtashan! It costs 14 yuan a pack!"

Wang Lin took the cigarette and said with a smile: "Why give me this? Why don't you give me a few catties of meat!"

Li Wenxiu said: "She knows you smoke, so she gave you cigarettes. She also said that when you are free, I will treat you to dinner! I found that you are quite capable? How can you help her resume work? Woolen cloth?"

"Hehe! I'm so capable!" Wang Lin opened the cigarette, took out a pack, lit one comfortably, and slowly puffed out the smoke.

Li Wenxiu said: "By the way, when I was sorting out some of your purses, I found that inside that old-fashioned purse, there were several pieces of paper with portraits of women drawn on them. Whose portraits are those?"

"Portrait? Where did the portrait come from?" Wang Lin asked puzzled.

Now that he has more money, he bought two brand new leather bags, each of which contained hundreds of thousands of dollars when he went out.

Fortunately, the one-hundred-yuan new coin has been issued. Although he is carrying a leather bag, although it is a bit heavy, he can still accept it.

The old leather bag was eliminated.

Li Wenxiu still sewed the space of the leather bag into evenly sized grids with cloth, and put exactly [-] yuan in each grid.

She got up and went into the room, took out some papers, and handed them to Wang Lin: "Here, these are the papers. Isn't this a portrait?"

Wang Lin looked at it and said with a broken smile, "This is not someone's portrait. This is a costume design draft I drew! Why is it in the purse? It's useless, throw it away!"

"Costume design?" Li Wenxiu looked at the clothes above seriously, "These styles are so trendy? If they are made, they must look good!"

"of course!"

"Did you draw it?"

"Otherwise? In my family, who else can design clothes?"

"My natal family has a sewing machine, and my mother doesn't use it very much. I'll get it back later, and I'll make a dress like this." Li Wenxiu said.

"Can you make clothes?" Wang Lin asked with a smile.

"What's the fuss about this? I've learned how to cut clothes since I was a child. My mother also told me that if I don't do well in school and can't find a job, let me set up a stall on the street and become a master tailor!"

"Oh? Really?" Wang Lin pondered, "Then try it, can you make it? We can just buy a sewing machine ourselves."

"You don't need to buy it. Speaking of which, it's also a breach of etiquette in my family. You came as a bride price. When we get married, my family should send three big gifts."

"Hehe, did you know? You chose to pretend to be blind before?"

"You!" Li Wenxiu blushed and said, "Are you mocking me with every sentence? I can't decide my family's affairs! It's not like you don't know about my family's situation. If there is any surplus, it wouldn't be— — Forget it, let’s not mention the past.”

Wang Lindao: "If I don't mention it, I won't mention it. I'll buy this sewing machine myself. I won't bring back an old one from your house, and then you will say that it was sent by your house!"

Li Wenxiu couldn't hold back her smile and said, "Are you so fussy? My people are here, so you still care about a sewing machine?"

"Not just a sewing machine. No bicycles and no television, okay?"

"Hey! Who told you to marry me, a poor wife? If you find a rich family, you don't need a penny of betrothal gifts, but I will send you three big gifts!"

"Who told me to like you!" Wang Lin blurted out, then coughed lightly, "I mean back then!"

Li Wenxiu glanced at him lightly: "What's wrong? You don't like me now?"

"I like it! Is there a use for it?" Wang Lin waved his hand, "Forget it, I will buy a sewing machine, and it won't cost much. We have a million now! Let alone a small sewing machine, it is I can afford a car too! Did all the bullshit I bragged about come true?"

Li Wenxiu brows and eyes brimming with a happy smile: "I know you're amazing! But there's really no need to buy a car. What's the use of it? I go to work all day, and you go to other provinces all day, who will use it?"

"Whether you need it or not! But you must buy it! This car is like a country's nuclear weapons. You don't need it, but you can't have it!"

"What do you mean? Why can't I understand?"

"Nuclear weapons are a symbol of a country's comprehensive strength! They are a guarantee of a country's prosperity and strength! The role of a car is almost the same!"

"vanity!"

"I'm just being vain! I'm going to see the car tomorrow. Are you going?"

"I told you, don't buy it!"

"Li Wenxiu, this is the money I earned, why don't you let me buy it? Can you control it?"

"Other things, I don't care about you, but I have to take care of buying a car. You can't buy it! At least not now!"

"I can't tell you! I will make the decision! Not only do I want to buy it, but I also want to buy a good car!"

"What kind of nice car?"

"Mercedes-Benz W123!"

"Never heard of it. How much?"

"Changchun FAW-Benz, a joint venture domestic car, is not expensive, with a low configuration of more than 60 yuan and a high configuration of more than 90 yuan! Tiger-headed Benz, a classic style, is worth collecting! It can be driven for 30 years! It is cheaper than imported Mercedes-Benz. Hundreds of thousands!"

"Oh my God!" Li Wenxiu was stunned by the price he said, "More than 90 yuan? Buy a car? Unless you're crazy! You managed to earn so much money, and you actually spent all of it on just one car? What are you planning?"

"Thousands of money are hard to buy, I am happy! Just like when I spent three thousand yuan to marry you, I am so self-willed! If you like something, you must get it back!"

"Wang Lin, I really don't recommend you to buy a car so early. You'd better keep the money as capital first! I know what I say, and you won't listen to it, but I have to say it!" Li Wenxiu turned her back, angry ignore him.

Wang Lin's tone softened, and he said with a smile, "I'll listen to you. Instead of buying a car, I'll buy the sewing machine for you first, okay?"

"I'll go shopping with you. I have to choose the sewing machine myself. I really like sewing and tailoring!" Li Wenxiu smiled again.

"Okay, let's go buy it now?"

"Well, wait, I'll change clothes."

"Put on the skirt I bought for you, you will look good in it."

"Don't wear it!"

Li Wenxiu pursed her lips into a smile, and entered the bedroom.

After a while, she opened the door and came out.

Wang Lin's eyes lit up!
Li Wenxiu put on the dress that Wang Lin bought for her.

For a skirt worth ten yuan, she wore a style that cost thousands of dollars.

She wore high-heeled sandals bought by Wang Lin and a long skirt, revealing a section of white greasy calves, delicate and clean feet, slim and graceful, especially showing the S-shaped curve of her waist and buttocks.

Domestic clothing is about flat and loose, so that women can't show their figure when they wear it.

Hong Kong and Taiwan styles of clothing emphasize the S-shaped beauty of women.

Seeing him staring at her, Li Wenxiu asked shyly, "Isn't it ugly?"

"It's beautiful!" Wang Lin said with a smile, "Heavenly Immortal!"

Li Wenxiu turned around lightly, the hem of her skirt fluttered into a circle.

"I really like this dress." Li Wenxiu said, "You really have a good eye, and it fits me perfectly."

"Of course, you are my wife. How can I not know your figure?" Wang Lin said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go buy a sewing machine."

Li Wenxiu told her sister a few words, and came out with Wang Lin.

The two came to the No. [-] Department Store.

Li Wenxiu took a fancy to a Butterfly brand sewing machine, the price of which was 185.6 yuan.

"It's a bit expensive." Li Wenxiu touched the shiny black fuselage. The three golden characters of the butterfly brand shone dazzlingly on the fuselage.

"Buy it if you like it. This machine is good." Wang Lin said with a smile, "It can be used as an antique collection in the future!"

"Well, then buy it? I have a ticket." Li Wenxiu took out a sewing ticket and said, "I've always wanted to buy it, but I just can't bear more than a hundred dollars."

"Didn't you say that? Things that can be used are not expensive!" Wang Lin immediately called the salesperson, paid the money readily, and bought the sewing machine.

The two called a delivery tricycle at the door and dragged the sewing machine home.

Li Wenxiu bought a sewing machine worth more than [-] yuan, and she was as happy as a man who bought a Mercedes-Benz with several million dollars. She hummed a song and went into the house to find fabrics to make the clothes designed by Wang Lin.
