Chapter 540
"You reminded me of this"
Li Guangnian was standing in the yard with his hands behind his back, looking at Li Xuewu and Gu Ning who walked in.
The surprise and fear in Gu Ning's eyes made Li Guangnian frowned.
Li Xuewu didn't care about this, he looked at the coffin in the shed pretendingly, and said: "You didn't prepare well for the funeral, I happen to have a few pairs of high-quality birthday materials in my hand, and the color is also very good. Would you like to think about it?"
Li Guangnian was already used to Li Xuewu's disrespectful speaking style, so he would not believe that Li Xuewu really had any birthday gifts in his hands.
Because no one would believe that a deputy director-level cadre would engage in the business of selling coffins, unless he was a fool.
The old man was obviously not a fool, and he was not angry with Li Xuewu who took him for a fool.
This young man is the deputy director, but today Li Xuewu did not come in this capacity, nor did he come to handle official business.
Li Xuewu is an ordinary 20-year-old young man who is common in Forty-Nine City.
So he didn't think anything of it, because he was very used to this way of speaking, which was the most common way of speaking for the young and old in Forty-Nine City.
This is a pain in the ass not talking a few words!
Of course, those fastidious people are not included here.
A social gangster like Li Xuewu certainly knows what to talk to. This old man is an old Beijing jerk who has seen the world but has no culture.
You have to tell him that politeness can kill him, and don't talk about those poor and elegant bells and whistles, because this old man must have more knowledge than you.
He may not be able to understand the truth of what you said, but he knows that what you said is meaningless to him.
Just like when experts appraised a painting, no matter how they identified it, it was true, but Aunt Pu froze and said it was fake.
How do you know it's fake?
Aunt Pu said this frankly belongs to our family!I'm tired of watching it every day, and I still don't know if it's true or not?
Of course, the original words must not be like this, and it may be more damaging than this.
So Li Xuewu never pretended that he knew so much in front of these old people, that would only make these old people see that he was playing tricks, and despise his childish and ridiculous in his heart.
He would only tease those old people who understood and cared about them, and grabbed these old people's lifeblood and beat them fiercely.
But this kind of operation will make these old people pay attention to him, annoy him, and like him.
Gu Ning watched Li Xuewu bicker with this strangely dressed old man, and unconsciously thought of what Zhou Yamei said when he was at home.
He always has a way of making people like him.
The reason why Gu Ning said that the old man's clothes are weird is because Li Guangnian is now wearing the shroud he prepared for himself.
Anyone who sees a walking old guy in a shroud will think it's weird.
Just when Li Xuewu was about to comment on his clothes, Li Guangnian lost his patience.
“good good”
Li Guangnian waved his hand, and said to Li Xuewu in a conceited manner: "I know, you succeeded, you are fine, and you have such a good wife, don't need to show off to me."
This is why Li Xuewu is mean to these old men, they can always find a suitable position to attack you violently.
Now Li Xuewu pointed to the old man's clothes calmly and asked, "Don't you want to change it? It's time to cover the prickly heat."
The old man nodded and said, "I'm not afraid of prickly heat, I'm afraid of heatstroke."
While leading Li Xuewu into the courtyard, he muttered, "I know you won't save me."
"You are thinking too much"
Li Xuewu smiled at Gu Ning with an expression that you guessed it, and walked into the courtyard.
With Li Xuewu by his side, Gu Ning didn't seem scared anymore, but he followed Li Xuewu's footsteps into the courtyard.
The old man led Li Xuewu into the living room of the main room, pointed to the armchair and said, "Sit first."
After finishing speaking, he ignored Li Xuewu and the two, and went straight to the back room.
Different from the door design of ordinary people's houses, the door of the old man's house is set in the inner position, which seems a bit more hidden.
Li Xuewu looked at the furnishings in the room, it was very simple but not so simple.
To put it simply, it is because there are not many things in the house, including the radio and other fashionable items. There are only tables, chairs, benches, vases and small tables.
It is not easy to say that these things are placed very carefully, showing the folk culture of the host family everywhere.
Maybe it is the simple but not simple meaning mentioned in the advertisements of later generations.
The room is not as lifeless as Li Xuewu imagined, on the contrary, it is set off by the green plants on the small table, which is very demure.
This doesn't match Mr. Li's temperament.
There is no slovenliness, no old people's unique taste, and no lonely and decadent style.
After entering the house, Gu Ning sat next to Li Xuewu, and her mood calmed down. Seeing the old man, seeing the situation in the house, and thinking about the coffin in the yard, she didn't seem nervous anymore.
This is a kind of old helplessness, but also a kind of lonely stubbornness.
She felt that this old man must not have made arrangements for his death as Li Xuewu said.
What the old man was asking for was that people from the street would not drag him to the fire and burn him, so that he could prepare his own escape route and reduce other people's troubles.
"How much do you want to do?"
The old man changed into a robe and gown in the back room and came out. Without the permeable clothes, he looked a little hale and hearty now.
"I don't recommend you to order a coffin bearer now"
Li Xuewu looked at the spirit of the old man, and said with a smile: "I even doubt that they won't survive you."
"It's okay, I will find you when the time comes"
The old man's mouth is also bad, and he secretly means that Li Xuewu is very good at raising arguments.
Li Xuewu smiled, nodded indifferently, and then said: "Although you think my question is nonsense, I still want to ask you, what kind of clothes do you know, or what kind of clothes do you suggest we should do?" .
"understood"
The old man nodded, expressing that he understood what Li Xuewu meant.
"If it's a wedding, in summer, um..."
The old man thought for a while and said: "This kind of formal occasion must start with the shirt."
After saying this, the old man turned his head to look at Li Xuewu and asked, "Is it inappropriate for me to discuss the twelve collar styles of shirts with you?"
Li Xuewu looked at the old man who stood in the professional field and despised him speechlessly, and asked, "It's like I was discussing with you how to shoot an old man without making him fart immediately?"
The old man looked at Li Xuewu in shock, then looked at Gu Ning and said, "So it's more appropriate for me to discuss with you, what's the girl's name?"
Gu Ning looked at the expressionless Li Xuewu, and couldn't help squinting her eyes. Now she wanted to discuss with Li Xuewu how to stab a expressionless fiancé with a scalpel, but she was actually pretending to hide her knowledge of tailoring. The subject that made him die.
"Hi, my name is Gu Ning"
Gu Ning nodded, and said frankly: "My knowledge of tailoring is limited to watching my mother mend clothes with needles and threads, but I have never done it myself."
The old man nodded, thought for a while, then turned to Li Xuewu and said, "You are a good match."
"Thank you!"
Li Xuewu stood up and went to try the thermos bottle. Since this old man doesn't know how to treat guests, he can't treat himself badly.
The old man pointed to the drawer under the tea cabinet and said: "There is tea there, make me a cup too."
Li Xuewu turned his head to look at the unceremonious old man, seeing that he had already started discussing with Gu Ning, he consciously rummaged through the tea leaves.
After he made the tea and brought it over, the old man had already drawn a sketch for Gu Ning with the pen and paper he brought.
To be honest, women are indeed talented in mastering the skill of tailoring, but this does not include Gu Ning.
The old man also discovered this after talking for a while, so he changed his mind and drew clothes that could be made and suitable for Li Xuewu, and let Gu Ning and Li Xuewu choose.
Gu Ning's clothes are all bought in stores, so naturally they won't fit so well, and there are not many styles to choose from.
Now a tailor draws a sketch for them to choose, which makes Gu Ning a little picky.
Tailoring is definitely not an easy job, let alone a skill that anyone can master.
Otherwise, there would be no aristocratic families in Paris, and the Champs Elysees would be just ordinary streets full of filth.
Although Li Xuewu has no talent in fashion design, he has a vision beyond this era.
During the discussion, he was the main force talking to the old man.
In the end, he decided on his clothes including shirts, jackets, Chinese tunic suits, etc., while Gu Ning's were women's shirts, jackets, skirts and other clothing.
Following the tailoring rules at this time, the old man asked Li Xuewu whether he should prepare his own clothing materials or buy them together.
Of course, the old man also explained first that the current fabrics are not easy to buy, and he has no unit, so his purchasing power is limited.
Li Xuewu looked at the old man and asked what kind of fabrics he needed, including colors and so on.
Finally, it was decided that Li Xuewu would prepare the fabrics himself.
Gu Ning didn't think that Li Xuewu would care about such a matter, let alone compete with Li Xuewu over the fabric and money.
However, the feeling of this professional custom-made clothing is indeed much more comfortable than going to a clothing store to buy it yourself.
Of course, what she didn't know was that ordinary tailors would not ask her to drink tea while patiently introducing her styles or giving her advice.
Old man Li stopped making clothes for outsiders a long time ago, and he didn't even bother to make clothes for himself.
This time it was because of the need to repay Li Xuewu's favor, although neither Li Xuewu nor Li Guangnian said anything about it.
However, Li Guangnian would not be so foolish as to think that he was lucky enough to avoid the danger of having those precious clothes confiscated once.
Not to mention what a noble person Li Xuewu is, who took the initiative to help him avoid the embarrassment of being humiliated at such an advanced age.
So when Li Xuewu asked him to make clothes, Li Guangnian didn't refuse, let alone said that he had retired.
Because Li Xuewu didn't care whether he retired or not, he didn't care about his old antiques, and he didn't care about his identity or his actions that seemed to be prodigal by his neighbors.
Equal respect is the default basis for exchange between the two.
Li Xuewu helped him out of the predicament. He helped Li Xuewu make clothes and did his best.
After agreeing on a time to deliver the fabrics, Li Xuewu took Gu Ning out of this small courtyard that looked dilapidated on the outside but was actually clean inside.
"You can really touch it"
After getting into the car, Gu Ning couldn't help but praise Li Xuewu.
Of course, this kind of praise is still accompanied by Gu Ning's ridicule of Li Xuewu's social gangsters.
Li Xuewu was very pleased with Gu Ning's tone, at least he could see that Gu Ning's character was changing because of him.
What disliked Gu Ning at first was that he didn't want to cause trouble, and he didn't want to endure an ice cube while causing trouble.
You're so fucking awesome, how can you let others bully you?
Of course, after that shot, he knew he was still a human being, not a god.
So feeling the special care of his mother-in-law, and the way Gu Ning peeked at him outside the ward door, he decided to experience the love he had cultivated.
Li Xuewu is already ready for a protracted battle, but Gu Ning is not that stubborn character, let alone the inherent thinking of this era.
It can be said that Gu Ning can understand most of his jokes and understand his thinking mode.
Li Xuewu would rather believe that the two have a similar aura than being considered as having the same disease.
"It's nothing"
While driving home, Li Xuewu looked at his watch. It was already time for dinner. If he missed the time, he might be punished.
"I also know a cobbler, so you don't need to try on the shoes. I know the shoe size and foot shape."
Gu Ning squinted his eyes and looked at Li Xuewu, without any intention of thanking Li Xuewu.
Because she thought of the bad guy touching her feet when she was in Steel City.
Although she was condemning Li Xuewu in her heart, Gu Ning didn't realize that many of her behaviors and language were gradually matching Li Xuewu.
Like squinting and raising eyebrows.
She would never do this kind of frivolous action before, but now she will do it when she is with Li Xuewu.
But this is mostly the "presumptuousness" that is only available when she is with Li Xuewu. At home and at work, she is still the ice beauty who is used to being calm.
"Why did you come back~"
Just when Li Xuewu parked the car at the gate of the courtyard, Liu Yin, who couldn't help but come out to check, still complained.
"Go order clothes"
Gu Ning may be in a much better mood, and took the initiative to explain to his future mother-in-law, which also saved Li Xuewu from being scolded by his mother before the meal.
Naturally, Liu Yin would not blame Gu Ning, she nodded in satisfaction when she heard the explanation, but then she frowned and nodded when she looked at her son.
Li Xuewu cocked his mouth and did not explain or complain. In this situation, he is the most status-less.
Fortunately, the mother-in-law was still thinking about him, and when she saw Li Xuewu coming in, she asked, "Is everything settled?"
"Yes"
Li Xuewu took the initiative to report the process of visiting Zhang Shuting and Yu Huaiyou, and briefly talked about ordering clothes with Gu Ning.
Ding Fengxia is most satisfied with Li Xuewu's calmness and ability. She doesn't need her daughter to worry about anything, and handles everything in an orderly manner.
Although I told Liu Yin not to spoil Gu Ning, let her mother-in-law discipline her.
But my daughter hurts herself, so Gu Ning is not willing to suffer here.
If it wasn't for Gu Haitao's denial, she would have wanted to arrange the chef and waiter here.
Li Xuewu naturally understood a mother's love, so he was very patient with Ding Fengxia's inquiry.
Ding Fengxia also liked this uncle, and while urging Li Xuewu to wash up, she asked about the details of clothes and other matters.
Liu Yin and the old lady couldn't help but smile at each other when they saw their in-laws passing towels to Li Xuewu and Gu Ning who had finished washing.
All of this was seen by Mu Hongyan. She ignored Li Xuewu today, and even scolded Li Xuewu in her heart.
What's more, his lover felt that it was worthless to give the clothes to Li Xuewu. This bad guy failed the kindness of Gu's family to him.
But at the moment she is a little awkward, because it's okay for her mother-in-law to be nice to Li Xuewu, after all, she is fascinated by Li Xuewu.
But why is Gu Ning so different from yesterday?
She didn't want her sister-in-law to be sad and sad all the time, but she was still in that state yesterday, and today she can get along with Li Xuewu's family with a smile.
This not only made her think of herself, but also how she faced her in-laws back then.
It must be, my sister-in-law must have been bullied by Li Xuewu, there is no other way, I can only endure the pain and pretend to be calm.
The more he felt this way, the more Mu Hongyan looked at Li Xuewu to hate him.
But now she is not the protagonist of today, nor is she Gu Ning's elder, with her mother-in-law here, there is no reason for her to be in charge.
So Mu Hongyan decided to hold back, just like what my sister-in-law said, she will settle her affairs by herself.
But there must be a limit.
Li Xuewu knew why Mu Hongyan was angry with him and didn't provoke this sister-in-law again, so the next dinner did not touch Mu Hongyan's limit.
Because Liu Yin prepared meat stuffing, the staple food is dumplings.
Zhou Yamei had already made arrangements, so besides dumplings, there were shallot eggs, stir-fried dried lentils, cold potato shreds, braised carp, stewed tofu, and fried mushrooms on the table.
Fortunately, the tables in the restaurant are big enough, and they all sat down after squeezing hard.
This was because Li Xuewu wanted to coax Li Shu, and Fu Zhidong didn't go to the table, he sat on the sofa resting with a small bowl, and ate on the coffee table.
Li Shu was naturally dissatisfied seeing everyone at the table eating and drinking lively.
But my father was by my side, so I could only point my little finger to the other side of the table, and babbled a few words to my father.
Today is a special day, both the old lady and Liu Yin went to the table to accompany Ding Fengxia, so Li Xuewu took the initiative to accompany his daughter.
Seeing that my daughter was anxious now, she smiled and hugged her to the kitchen and walked around, filled a small bowl with a few eggs and came back, and fed her bit by bit with chopsticks.
Li Shu is naturally satisfied when she has something to eat, but she still looks at the table, she still prefers the excitement over there.
Ding Fengxia couldn't help smiling when she saw how her uncle was taking care of the child, and she said something to Liu Yin beside her, and both of them laughed.
Gu Ning is not so comfortable eating at the table, because whether it is the mother or the Li family, they will more or less look at her.
So he took a few mouthfuls, put down his chopsticks, followed the elders politely, got up and went to Li Xuewu to pick up Li Shu.
Li Xuewu looked at Gu Ning and asked, "Why don't you eat any more?"
Gu Ning shook his head and said, "I'm full, give me the child."
Li Xuewu knew that Gu Ning was still a little uncomfortable in such a crowded place, so he didn't say anything else. He gave the big devil to Gu Ning, went to where Gu Ning was just now, and took the wine bottle to his mother-in-law and grandfather. A round of wine was poured.
Maybe I'm happy today, maybe it's because Li Xuewu and Gu Ning have grown up, and it's because Li Xuewu's attitude towards children makes everyone feel more at ease and happy, as long as the food is good, everyone can drink They all brought glasses.
Especially after Li Xuewu came to the table, he offered to toast frequently, which also raised the atmosphere on the table a lot.
The elders are naturally delighted with Li Xuewu's changes and growth, and even more delighted that the two people with very different personalities can get along well.
It can be seen from the situation of taking care of Li Shu that Ding Fengxia feels that Li Xuewu can be so patient with her children, so she can also be patient with her daughter.
Liu Yin and Li Shun felt that Gu Ning must be a good daughter-in-law for being so considerate of Li Xuewu and taking care of Li Shu.
Li Shun stared after being respected twice by his son, but Man Yin's movements could still tell that he was in a good mood today, with a feeling that he was about to consummate his merits and virtues.
But looking at the third child who was also drinking with a wine glass, he couldn't help but glared again.
The feeling of consummation of merit and virtue dissipated in an instant.
Naturally, Li Xuewu couldn't understand his father's feelings. While respecting his elders and family, he also respected Zhou Yamei.
Today, Zhou Yamei has made great contributions to entertaining the families of the two parties, and she has made great contributions to it. Just one table of food is worth Li Xuewu's toast.
Zhou Yamei also took this opportunity to bless Li Xuewu and Gu Ning.
Taking advantage of the convenience of this time, Li Xuewu also secretly introduced Zhou Yamei's care for himself and Gu Ning and his family to everyone.
Li Shun knew about it a long time ago, but he wasn't too surprised. What others didn't understand clearly was also half-knowledgeable.
Only Mu Hongyan looked at Li Xuewu in astonishment. She really didn't expect that Li Xuewu was sick just like his sister-in-law.
That's right, who can do such a thing as a normal person~——
After drinking and eating, naturally all the women stretched out their hands to help Zhou Yamei clean up the kitchen.
Among the women who did not participate was sister-in-law Zhao Yafang, because she was too young to bend over and was tired.
Li Xuewu found tea from the tea cabinet and made tea for everyone one by one.
It was Li Xue who saw that the second brother was busy, and took the initiative to come over to help serve tea and water, which won a big smile from Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu didn't blame the third brother for not knowing how to help, because the kid drank a little too much and was sitting on a chair with a blushing face in a daze.
“The garden is well looked after”
Grandpa watched Li Xue serve tea with a smile, and said something to Li Xuewu who came over.
Li Xuewu also replied with a smile: "Sister Zhou helped to serve, and said that she can save a lot of food money in the fall."
Li Shun nodded and said, "That's the reason."
While talking, he turned his head to look at the grandma and said, "There is still some space in the courtyard of the third child, and I will plant something later."
This may be the influence of Chinese people's planting genes, and Li Shun has long wanted to grow some vegetables in the yard.
Yan Fugui's family across the door uses flower pots to grow vegetables every year, which can save some money.
This made Li Shun and Liu Yin, who were diligent and thrifty, talked about it a few times, but they didn't have so many flower pots at home, let alone such a big place, so they had to give up.
Li Xuewu nodded to the old Biaozi who was sitting beside him and said: "There is a piece of land on the mountain, and some vegetables are planted. In summer, Biaozi will bring it to the family. Don't waste that matter."
Li Shun looked at Li Xuewu, and said, "It's so troublesome to eat vegetables, how can there be benefits from growing at the door of the house."
Li Xuewen frowned and said: "Dad, let's listen to martial arts, it's not suitable."
Because of Zhao Yafang's influence, Li Xuewen has been reading newspapers recently, and has learned a lot about the current situation.
Especially regarding the field of culture, he had to pay attention.
Words derived from culture are not very popular, especially at this time, some things seem to be nothing, but they are actually pigtails.
Seeing that both the eldest son and the second son objected, Li Shun also thought of something.
He drank a lot today, but his mind was not muddled, he nodded clearly, and did not continue this topic.
After Liu Yin and the others finished cleaning up, the living room became lively again.
Li Xuewu and Gu Ning chatted with everyone for a while, and then were urged by their mother to go shopping.
This is what Li Xuewu said earlier, because he is getting married and hasn't bought anything for Gu Ning yet, so he decided to go out for a stroll today.
The two families wanted to chat for a while at the villa, but Li Xuewu had already arranged for Lao Biaozi to help, so he took Gu Ning out of the house after saying hello.
"Let's go to see the fabric first, and then go shopping."
What Li Xuewu took Gu Ning to visit was the Wangfujing shopping mall that he had encountered here before, and there were many things here.
Gu Ning didn't have any objections, as if he was dealing with a task, he regarded this kind of shopping as an obligation that must be fulfilled before marriage.
Because she doesn't like this kind of crowded environment, and she doesn't like shopping.
Li Xuewu knew this about her, so he didn't plan to torture Gu Ning, and took her to the fabric counter facing the lobby on the first floor with a purpose.
There are many kinds of colors and fabrics here. Li Xuewu remembered the materials and specific data explained by Li Guangnian, so it was not difficult to choose.
The salesperson also prefers people like Li Xuewu, who don't need nonsense explanations or introductions.
This five feet, that ten feet, Li Xuewu chose what he didn't have in his hand, and told the salesperson the size, and the salesperson took a yellow wooden ruler and quickly measured it.
After measuring, use scissors to open an opening, and tear it open with your hands with a squeak.
He folded the cut fabric and put it aside, then went to measure the next material Li Xuewu wanted.
The salesperson's efficiency is so high, it's all because Li Xuewu patted the cloth ticket on the counter first, otherwise he wouldn't be so happy.
"Let's go upstairs and have a look"
After buying the fabrics, Li Xuewu temporarily stored them on the counter and took Gu Ning to the second floor.
Gu Ning followed behind and looked at the people in the mall, and asked Li Xuewu, "What do you want to buy?"
"for wedding"
Li Xuewu said back to Gu Ning while climbing the stairs: "I always think it seems like something is almost there."
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu, and said: "There is nothing missing, I can take it home if I am in a hurry."
I don't know if it's to avoid trouble, or to save trouble, Gu Ning's way to deal with lack of things is to go home and get them.
In her concept, home is everywhere, and it is something she can use and control, and it is normal to take it wherever she takes it.
Li Xuewu was not in a hurry to correct Gu Ning's concept, because when she realized the gap, it was precisely when she was confused and sad.
"You want to buy a watch?"
When Gu Ning followed Li Xuewu to the watch counter, he looked at Li Xuewu in surprise.
Because she knew that Li Xuewu had a watch.
Li Xuewu nodded, did not answer, but looked down on the glass counter.
At this time, there were fewer styles of watches. Simply put, they were a large piece of round shape and a large piece of steel chain.
This is also related to people's aesthetics at this time, and it is also related to usage habits. The emphasis is on durability.
Li Xuewu tried his best to choose two very similar watches from the counter, including the brand and shape, dial and shape.
But the difference is that one watch is big and the other is small.
Li Xuewu also wanted to buy couple watches directly, but there was no such concept at this time. Neither the manufacturers nor the shopping malls put forward matching watches as a marketing concept.
Thanks to the simplicity of the current watch, this pairing is not difficult.
Li Xuewu turned his head to look at Gu Ning, and asked, "Do you like it?"
"You want to buy two?"
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu, and then looked at the watch inside the counter.
"Swiss-made mechanical watches in West Malaysia, thinner than domestic ones, all-steel shockproof"
The salesperson also saw that the two of them were not short of money, because they were dressed more neatly today.
In particular, Li Xuewu had a piece of West Horse in his hand, and now it looks like two pieces, so he also took the initiative to introduce it.
"This kind of watch strap not only has a steel chain, but also leather, which is said to be from a crocodile."
The salesperson introduced Li Xuewu in an indifferent and non-guaranteed tone, and his attitude couldn't be better, because the salespersons in the mall were much better than other places.
Gu Ning looked at the dial, it was the common white background at this time, with patterns in the disc, and golden Roman numerals on the outer dial.
At this time, the mechanical watch is not popular to leave the dial empty, so that you can see the structure inside, so the choice is mostly based on the style.
"I have a watch"
Gu Ning looked at this area, raised his head and said something to Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu smiled, and said to the impatient salesperson who heard Gu Ning's words: "Help me take out the two watches, let's try it, if it fits, please help us replace it with a leather strap."
The salesperson looked at Li Xuewu in surprise, she thought that the young woman would not buy it if she said she had it.
Looks like it's really worth the money.
"One hundred and six for men, one hundred and fifty for women"
The salesperson didn't say anything else, just quoted the price, and then looked at Li Xuewu, waiting for Li Xuewu's decision.
This means, I can take it, but it’s not for nothing, you should first consider the money in your pocket, you won’t be able to afford it if I don’t take it out.
Li Xuewu nodded with certainty, saying yes.
He didn't give a damn about the salesman's attitude, because if you cared about that, you wouldn't go out.
I searched all over the city, except for special stores, basically the service attitude was the same, or even worse.
Seeing that Li Xuewu insisted, the salesperson opened the cabinet door and took out the two watches.
Li Xuewu took the initiative to take the lady's money and helped Gu Ning carry it.
"After thinking about it, I still need a token of love before I get married."
Gu Ning let Li Xuewu help him put on the watch, but he didn't expect to hear Li Xuewu say this.
At this moment, regardless of the salesperson standing opposite to the light bulb, Gu Ning raised his head and looked into Li Xuewu's eyes.
Li Xuewu has never seen the light in Gu Ning's eyes like this before, and he can definitely understand the meaning in Gu Ning's eyes.
"I'm sure"
"Um"
Gu Ning nodded, looked down at the watch on his wrist, shook it, and felt very satisfied.
Maybe he leaned over the counter to choose it hard, maybe he also chose a pair that was like a person.
Li Xuewu turned his head to look at the salesperson who was watching the excitement, and said with a smile: "Thanks for your hard work, we want it."
"it is good"
The salesperson was also happy, and invoiced the two watches, collected Li Xuewu's money and tickets, and then took the watches and two boxes to the watch repair shop at the other end.
"Your monthly salary is gone"
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu, and said something briskly.
Li Xuewu turned his head, blinked his left eye, and said softly: "In the future, we can't negotiate salary outside. Those who don't believe it say we're bragging, and those who believe it will attract people's envy."
Gu Ning pursed his lips, but was still amused by Li Xuewu and smiled.
Indeed, there must not be many people who say a salary of more than 300 yuan at this time, especially a young man like Li Xuewu.
The nature of society is such that young people, even college students, do not make too much money.
Li Xuewu didn't dare to say that he was a college student, his college was like a joke.
"Are you free tomorrow?"
Li Xuewu asked: "If you can ask for leave, let's get the certificate tomorrow morning."
"Still wanting to tell you"
Gu Ning looked into Li Xuewu's eyes and said, "Maybe it's Tuesday, and there will be surgery on Monday."
Li Xuewu tilted his head, and nodded in disbelief. This is not a special TV series, and he will miss it for a lifetime after a while.
A day's delay won't matter, so Li Xuewu nodded happily.
"Then Tuesday morning, I'll pick you up"
Li Xuewu looked at the time in his hand and asked, "Shall I go and see the jewelry later?"
"No"
Gu Ning shook his head and said to Li Xuewu: "I don't like wearing those things, don't buy them, and you can't wear them to work."
What Gu Ning said could not be worn at work was not that doctors could not wear rings and earrings, but that they could not wear them during surgery.
Especially the ring, even the watch that Li Xuewu bought because it was a token of love, otherwise she would not have worn it.
So looking at Gu Ning, he just turned his face to the sky, without any decorations on his body, let alone any gold or silver things.
It's not that simple people in the era would not wear jewelry, old ladies wear bracelets, women wear ear coins, and no one said this.
I don't wear them because I don't have the money to buy them. Those who have money wear them well, and they also wear jewelry.
Li Xuewu nodded in understanding, and said: "I know you don't like it, so I just ask casually and try my luck."
Gu Ning pursed the corners of his mouth, looked at Li Xuewu and found that there was no disappointed expression on this person's face, but he was a little thankful.
Seeing Gu Ning staring at him, Li Xuewu smiled and said: "If you really want to go shopping, I must have enough money, but I don't have a single ticket."
Gu Ning pursed his lips and couldn't help laughing, then turned to look at the salesperson who came over.
"The strap has been replaced"
The salesperson put the watch on the box and pushed it over, and said in his mouth: "The metal watch chain is in the box, and if you change it again, you will have to charge a handling fee."
Of course, Li Xuewu would not expect the service of replacing the watch strap for free for life, and he did not eat bad things.
Picking up the lady's watch, he gestured to Gu Ning. Gu Ning pursed his lips and smiled, looking at Li Xuewu like a naive ghost, but still handed over his wrist.
Li Xuewu helped Gu Ning put on the watch very seriously, then deliberately shook Gu Ning's palm, as if checking whether the watch fit or not.
Gu Ning just watched Li Xuewu shaking his hand while standing at the counter was a salesperson with a mouthful of dog food and a very uncomfortable expression on his face.
He had never seen such a brazen person.
Li Xuewu also felt the disgusting look from the salesperson, so he had no choice but to let go of Gu Ning's hand, took off his watch and put it in his bag, and put on a new one.
When he was about to take Gu Ning to leave, Li Xuewu saw the salesperson rolling his eyes, and suddenly turned his head and asked, "Do you want to send watch strap care oil?"
The salesperson was taken aback by Li Xuewu's sudden turning back, and then looked at Li Xuewu in disbelief when he heard this, and then rolled his eyes.
That seems to mean: Are you crazy?We are so polite enough to sell you a watch, but you still think about what watch strap care oil I will give you for free?
Of course, Li Xuewu didn't want some care oil, but just deliberately frightened her.
Gu Ning saw that Li Xuewu was being mischievous on purpose, and stretched out his hand to pull him.
Knowing that Li Xuewu is not a nonsense person, he was teasing himself, deliberately making trouble with the salesman, so that he could take the initiative to talk to him to stop him from doing this.
But for the sake of Li Xuewu's good performance today, Gu Ning chose to give him this face.
Li Xuewu, who had gained face, was really sensible. He took the fabric he had saved from the counter on the first floor, and walked in front of him to open the door for Gu Ning.
Gu Ning kept smiling all the time. It can be said that today is a very happy day when the two are alone together.
It's not like I didn't get along alone in the past, but today's life is fulfilling and enjoyable.
Maybe this is the reason why women like to go shopping to relieve their worries, cure all diseases?
"Do you want to go to the bookstore?"
Li Xuewu put his things on the back seat, checked the time after getting in the car, and asked Gu Ning.
He knows that Gu Ning still prefers to visit bookstores.
"still not"
Gu Ning looked at the watch on his wrist unaccustomed to it. The waiter had adjusted the time just now, and it was already past three o'clock before he knew it.
"Go back and have a look"
"Um"
Li Xuewu nodded, knowing that Gu Ning was worried about the family, and Li Xuewu also understood the reason why he didn't leave both parents at home, and the two were happy outside.
When I drove the car back to the villa, I found that the car at the gate was gone and the gate was closed. Obviously, the families of both parties had left.
Li Xuewu and Gu Ning got off the car and entered the courtyard, but there was no one in the hall, and Zhou Yamei just walked down the stairs.
"You guys are back~"
(End of this chapter)
"You reminded me of this"
Li Guangnian was standing in the yard with his hands behind his back, looking at Li Xuewu and Gu Ning who walked in.
The surprise and fear in Gu Ning's eyes made Li Guangnian frowned.
Li Xuewu didn't care about this, he looked at the coffin in the shed pretendingly, and said: "You didn't prepare well for the funeral, I happen to have a few pairs of high-quality birthday materials in my hand, and the color is also very good. Would you like to think about it?"
Li Guangnian was already used to Li Xuewu's disrespectful speaking style, so he would not believe that Li Xuewu really had any birthday gifts in his hands.
Because no one would believe that a deputy director-level cadre would engage in the business of selling coffins, unless he was a fool.
The old man was obviously not a fool, and he was not angry with Li Xuewu who took him for a fool.
This young man is the deputy director, but today Li Xuewu did not come in this capacity, nor did he come to handle official business.
Li Xuewu is an ordinary 20-year-old young man who is common in Forty-Nine City.
So he didn't think anything of it, because he was very used to this way of speaking, which was the most common way of speaking for the young and old in Forty-Nine City.
This is a pain in the ass not talking a few words!
Of course, those fastidious people are not included here.
A social gangster like Li Xuewu certainly knows what to talk to. This old man is an old Beijing jerk who has seen the world but has no culture.
You have to tell him that politeness can kill him, and don't talk about those poor and elegant bells and whistles, because this old man must have more knowledge than you.
He may not be able to understand the truth of what you said, but he knows that what you said is meaningless to him.
Just like when experts appraised a painting, no matter how they identified it, it was true, but Aunt Pu froze and said it was fake.
How do you know it's fake?
Aunt Pu said this frankly belongs to our family!I'm tired of watching it every day, and I still don't know if it's true or not?
Of course, the original words must not be like this, and it may be more damaging than this.
So Li Xuewu never pretended that he knew so much in front of these old people, that would only make these old people see that he was playing tricks, and despise his childish and ridiculous in his heart.
He would only tease those old people who understood and cared about them, and grabbed these old people's lifeblood and beat them fiercely.
But this kind of operation will make these old people pay attention to him, annoy him, and like him.
Gu Ning watched Li Xuewu bicker with this strangely dressed old man, and unconsciously thought of what Zhou Yamei said when he was at home.
He always has a way of making people like him.
The reason why Gu Ning said that the old man's clothes are weird is because Li Guangnian is now wearing the shroud he prepared for himself.
Anyone who sees a walking old guy in a shroud will think it's weird.
Just when Li Xuewu was about to comment on his clothes, Li Guangnian lost his patience.
“good good”
Li Guangnian waved his hand, and said to Li Xuewu in a conceited manner: "I know, you succeeded, you are fine, and you have such a good wife, don't need to show off to me."
This is why Li Xuewu is mean to these old men, they can always find a suitable position to attack you violently.
Now Li Xuewu pointed to the old man's clothes calmly and asked, "Don't you want to change it? It's time to cover the prickly heat."
The old man nodded and said, "I'm not afraid of prickly heat, I'm afraid of heatstroke."
While leading Li Xuewu into the courtyard, he muttered, "I know you won't save me."
"You are thinking too much"
Li Xuewu smiled at Gu Ning with an expression that you guessed it, and walked into the courtyard.
With Li Xuewu by his side, Gu Ning didn't seem scared anymore, but he followed Li Xuewu's footsteps into the courtyard.
The old man led Li Xuewu into the living room of the main room, pointed to the armchair and said, "Sit first."
After finishing speaking, he ignored Li Xuewu and the two, and went straight to the back room.
Different from the door design of ordinary people's houses, the door of the old man's house is set in the inner position, which seems a bit more hidden.
Li Xuewu looked at the furnishings in the room, it was very simple but not so simple.
To put it simply, it is because there are not many things in the house, including the radio and other fashionable items. There are only tables, chairs, benches, vases and small tables.
It is not easy to say that these things are placed very carefully, showing the folk culture of the host family everywhere.
Maybe it is the simple but not simple meaning mentioned in the advertisements of later generations.
The room is not as lifeless as Li Xuewu imagined, on the contrary, it is set off by the green plants on the small table, which is very demure.
This doesn't match Mr. Li's temperament.
There is no slovenliness, no old people's unique taste, and no lonely and decadent style.
After entering the house, Gu Ning sat next to Li Xuewu, and her mood calmed down. Seeing the old man, seeing the situation in the house, and thinking about the coffin in the yard, she didn't seem nervous anymore.
This is a kind of old helplessness, but also a kind of lonely stubbornness.
She felt that this old man must not have made arrangements for his death as Li Xuewu said.
What the old man was asking for was that people from the street would not drag him to the fire and burn him, so that he could prepare his own escape route and reduce other people's troubles.
"How much do you want to do?"
The old man changed into a robe and gown in the back room and came out. Without the permeable clothes, he looked a little hale and hearty now.
"I don't recommend you to order a coffin bearer now"
Li Xuewu looked at the spirit of the old man, and said with a smile: "I even doubt that they won't survive you."
"It's okay, I will find you when the time comes"
The old man's mouth is also bad, and he secretly means that Li Xuewu is very good at raising arguments.
Li Xuewu smiled, nodded indifferently, and then said: "Although you think my question is nonsense, I still want to ask you, what kind of clothes do you know, or what kind of clothes do you suggest we should do?" .
"understood"
The old man nodded, expressing that he understood what Li Xuewu meant.
"If it's a wedding, in summer, um..."
The old man thought for a while and said: "This kind of formal occasion must start with the shirt."
After saying this, the old man turned his head to look at Li Xuewu and asked, "Is it inappropriate for me to discuss the twelve collar styles of shirts with you?"
Li Xuewu looked at the old man who stood in the professional field and despised him speechlessly, and asked, "It's like I was discussing with you how to shoot an old man without making him fart immediately?"
The old man looked at Li Xuewu in shock, then looked at Gu Ning and said, "So it's more appropriate for me to discuss with you, what's the girl's name?"
Gu Ning looked at the expressionless Li Xuewu, and couldn't help squinting her eyes. Now she wanted to discuss with Li Xuewu how to stab a expressionless fiancé with a scalpel, but she was actually pretending to hide her knowledge of tailoring. The subject that made him die.
"Hi, my name is Gu Ning"
Gu Ning nodded, and said frankly: "My knowledge of tailoring is limited to watching my mother mend clothes with needles and threads, but I have never done it myself."
The old man nodded, thought for a while, then turned to Li Xuewu and said, "You are a good match."
"Thank you!"
Li Xuewu stood up and went to try the thermos bottle. Since this old man doesn't know how to treat guests, he can't treat himself badly.
The old man pointed to the drawer under the tea cabinet and said: "There is tea there, make me a cup too."
Li Xuewu turned his head to look at the unceremonious old man, seeing that he had already started discussing with Gu Ning, he consciously rummaged through the tea leaves.
After he made the tea and brought it over, the old man had already drawn a sketch for Gu Ning with the pen and paper he brought.
To be honest, women are indeed talented in mastering the skill of tailoring, but this does not include Gu Ning.
The old man also discovered this after talking for a while, so he changed his mind and drew clothes that could be made and suitable for Li Xuewu, and let Gu Ning and Li Xuewu choose.
Gu Ning's clothes are all bought in stores, so naturally they won't fit so well, and there are not many styles to choose from.
Now a tailor draws a sketch for them to choose, which makes Gu Ning a little picky.
Tailoring is definitely not an easy job, let alone a skill that anyone can master.
Otherwise, there would be no aristocratic families in Paris, and the Champs Elysees would be just ordinary streets full of filth.
Although Li Xuewu has no talent in fashion design, he has a vision beyond this era.
During the discussion, he was the main force talking to the old man.
In the end, he decided on his clothes including shirts, jackets, Chinese tunic suits, etc., while Gu Ning's were women's shirts, jackets, skirts and other clothing.
Following the tailoring rules at this time, the old man asked Li Xuewu whether he should prepare his own clothing materials or buy them together.
Of course, the old man also explained first that the current fabrics are not easy to buy, and he has no unit, so his purchasing power is limited.
Li Xuewu looked at the old man and asked what kind of fabrics he needed, including colors and so on.
Finally, it was decided that Li Xuewu would prepare the fabrics himself.
Gu Ning didn't think that Li Xuewu would care about such a matter, let alone compete with Li Xuewu over the fabric and money.
However, the feeling of this professional custom-made clothing is indeed much more comfortable than going to a clothing store to buy it yourself.
Of course, what she didn't know was that ordinary tailors would not ask her to drink tea while patiently introducing her styles or giving her advice.
Old man Li stopped making clothes for outsiders a long time ago, and he didn't even bother to make clothes for himself.
This time it was because of the need to repay Li Xuewu's favor, although neither Li Xuewu nor Li Guangnian said anything about it.
However, Li Guangnian would not be so foolish as to think that he was lucky enough to avoid the danger of having those precious clothes confiscated once.
Not to mention what a noble person Li Xuewu is, who took the initiative to help him avoid the embarrassment of being humiliated at such an advanced age.
So when Li Xuewu asked him to make clothes, Li Guangnian didn't refuse, let alone said that he had retired.
Because Li Xuewu didn't care whether he retired or not, he didn't care about his old antiques, and he didn't care about his identity or his actions that seemed to be prodigal by his neighbors.
Equal respect is the default basis for exchange between the two.
Li Xuewu helped him out of the predicament. He helped Li Xuewu make clothes and did his best.
After agreeing on a time to deliver the fabrics, Li Xuewu took Gu Ning out of this small courtyard that looked dilapidated on the outside but was actually clean inside.
"You can really touch it"
After getting into the car, Gu Ning couldn't help but praise Li Xuewu.
Of course, this kind of praise is still accompanied by Gu Ning's ridicule of Li Xuewu's social gangsters.
Li Xuewu was very pleased with Gu Ning's tone, at least he could see that Gu Ning's character was changing because of him.
What disliked Gu Ning at first was that he didn't want to cause trouble, and he didn't want to endure an ice cube while causing trouble.
You're so fucking awesome, how can you let others bully you?
Of course, after that shot, he knew he was still a human being, not a god.
So feeling the special care of his mother-in-law, and the way Gu Ning peeked at him outside the ward door, he decided to experience the love he had cultivated.
Li Xuewu is already ready for a protracted battle, but Gu Ning is not that stubborn character, let alone the inherent thinking of this era.
It can be said that Gu Ning can understand most of his jokes and understand his thinking mode.
Li Xuewu would rather believe that the two have a similar aura than being considered as having the same disease.
"It's nothing"
While driving home, Li Xuewu looked at his watch. It was already time for dinner. If he missed the time, he might be punished.
"I also know a cobbler, so you don't need to try on the shoes. I know the shoe size and foot shape."
Gu Ning squinted his eyes and looked at Li Xuewu, without any intention of thanking Li Xuewu.
Because she thought of the bad guy touching her feet when she was in Steel City.
Although she was condemning Li Xuewu in her heart, Gu Ning didn't realize that many of her behaviors and language were gradually matching Li Xuewu.
Like squinting and raising eyebrows.
She would never do this kind of frivolous action before, but now she will do it when she is with Li Xuewu.
But this is mostly the "presumptuousness" that is only available when she is with Li Xuewu. At home and at work, she is still the ice beauty who is used to being calm.
"Why did you come back~"
Just when Li Xuewu parked the car at the gate of the courtyard, Liu Yin, who couldn't help but come out to check, still complained.
"Go order clothes"
Gu Ning may be in a much better mood, and took the initiative to explain to his future mother-in-law, which also saved Li Xuewu from being scolded by his mother before the meal.
Naturally, Liu Yin would not blame Gu Ning, she nodded in satisfaction when she heard the explanation, but then she frowned and nodded when she looked at her son.
Li Xuewu cocked his mouth and did not explain or complain. In this situation, he is the most status-less.
Fortunately, the mother-in-law was still thinking about him, and when she saw Li Xuewu coming in, she asked, "Is everything settled?"
"Yes"
Li Xuewu took the initiative to report the process of visiting Zhang Shuting and Yu Huaiyou, and briefly talked about ordering clothes with Gu Ning.
Ding Fengxia is most satisfied with Li Xuewu's calmness and ability. She doesn't need her daughter to worry about anything, and handles everything in an orderly manner.
Although I told Liu Yin not to spoil Gu Ning, let her mother-in-law discipline her.
But my daughter hurts herself, so Gu Ning is not willing to suffer here.
If it wasn't for Gu Haitao's denial, she would have wanted to arrange the chef and waiter here.
Li Xuewu naturally understood a mother's love, so he was very patient with Ding Fengxia's inquiry.
Ding Fengxia also liked this uncle, and while urging Li Xuewu to wash up, she asked about the details of clothes and other matters.
Liu Yin and the old lady couldn't help but smile at each other when they saw their in-laws passing towels to Li Xuewu and Gu Ning who had finished washing.
All of this was seen by Mu Hongyan. She ignored Li Xuewu today, and even scolded Li Xuewu in her heart.
What's more, his lover felt that it was worthless to give the clothes to Li Xuewu. This bad guy failed the kindness of Gu's family to him.
But at the moment she is a little awkward, because it's okay for her mother-in-law to be nice to Li Xuewu, after all, she is fascinated by Li Xuewu.
But why is Gu Ning so different from yesterday?
She didn't want her sister-in-law to be sad and sad all the time, but she was still in that state yesterday, and today she can get along with Li Xuewu's family with a smile.
This not only made her think of herself, but also how she faced her in-laws back then.
It must be, my sister-in-law must have been bullied by Li Xuewu, there is no other way, I can only endure the pain and pretend to be calm.
The more he felt this way, the more Mu Hongyan looked at Li Xuewu to hate him.
But now she is not the protagonist of today, nor is she Gu Ning's elder, with her mother-in-law here, there is no reason for her to be in charge.
So Mu Hongyan decided to hold back, just like what my sister-in-law said, she will settle her affairs by herself.
But there must be a limit.
Li Xuewu knew why Mu Hongyan was angry with him and didn't provoke this sister-in-law again, so the next dinner did not touch Mu Hongyan's limit.
Because Liu Yin prepared meat stuffing, the staple food is dumplings.
Zhou Yamei had already made arrangements, so besides dumplings, there were shallot eggs, stir-fried dried lentils, cold potato shreds, braised carp, stewed tofu, and fried mushrooms on the table.
Fortunately, the tables in the restaurant are big enough, and they all sat down after squeezing hard.
This was because Li Xuewu wanted to coax Li Shu, and Fu Zhidong didn't go to the table, he sat on the sofa resting with a small bowl, and ate on the coffee table.
Li Shu was naturally dissatisfied seeing everyone at the table eating and drinking lively.
But my father was by my side, so I could only point my little finger to the other side of the table, and babbled a few words to my father.
Today is a special day, both the old lady and Liu Yin went to the table to accompany Ding Fengxia, so Li Xuewu took the initiative to accompany his daughter.
Seeing that my daughter was anxious now, she smiled and hugged her to the kitchen and walked around, filled a small bowl with a few eggs and came back, and fed her bit by bit with chopsticks.
Li Shu is naturally satisfied when she has something to eat, but she still looks at the table, she still prefers the excitement over there.
Ding Fengxia couldn't help smiling when she saw how her uncle was taking care of the child, and she said something to Liu Yin beside her, and both of them laughed.
Gu Ning is not so comfortable eating at the table, because whether it is the mother or the Li family, they will more or less look at her.
So he took a few mouthfuls, put down his chopsticks, followed the elders politely, got up and went to Li Xuewu to pick up Li Shu.
Li Xuewu looked at Gu Ning and asked, "Why don't you eat any more?"
Gu Ning shook his head and said, "I'm full, give me the child."
Li Xuewu knew that Gu Ning was still a little uncomfortable in such a crowded place, so he didn't say anything else. He gave the big devil to Gu Ning, went to where Gu Ning was just now, and took the wine bottle to his mother-in-law and grandfather. A round of wine was poured.
Maybe I'm happy today, maybe it's because Li Xuewu and Gu Ning have grown up, and it's because Li Xuewu's attitude towards children makes everyone feel more at ease and happy, as long as the food is good, everyone can drink They all brought glasses.
Especially after Li Xuewu came to the table, he offered to toast frequently, which also raised the atmosphere on the table a lot.
The elders are naturally delighted with Li Xuewu's changes and growth, and even more delighted that the two people with very different personalities can get along well.
It can be seen from the situation of taking care of Li Shu that Ding Fengxia feels that Li Xuewu can be so patient with her children, so she can also be patient with her daughter.
Liu Yin and Li Shun felt that Gu Ning must be a good daughter-in-law for being so considerate of Li Xuewu and taking care of Li Shu.
Li Shun stared after being respected twice by his son, but Man Yin's movements could still tell that he was in a good mood today, with a feeling that he was about to consummate his merits and virtues.
But looking at the third child who was also drinking with a wine glass, he couldn't help but glared again.
The feeling of consummation of merit and virtue dissipated in an instant.
Naturally, Li Xuewu couldn't understand his father's feelings. While respecting his elders and family, he also respected Zhou Yamei.
Today, Zhou Yamei has made great contributions to entertaining the families of the two parties, and she has made great contributions to it. Just one table of food is worth Li Xuewu's toast.
Zhou Yamei also took this opportunity to bless Li Xuewu and Gu Ning.
Taking advantage of the convenience of this time, Li Xuewu also secretly introduced Zhou Yamei's care for himself and Gu Ning and his family to everyone.
Li Shun knew about it a long time ago, but he wasn't too surprised. What others didn't understand clearly was also half-knowledgeable.
Only Mu Hongyan looked at Li Xuewu in astonishment. She really didn't expect that Li Xuewu was sick just like his sister-in-law.
That's right, who can do such a thing as a normal person~——
After drinking and eating, naturally all the women stretched out their hands to help Zhou Yamei clean up the kitchen.
Among the women who did not participate was sister-in-law Zhao Yafang, because she was too young to bend over and was tired.
Li Xuewu found tea from the tea cabinet and made tea for everyone one by one.
It was Li Xue who saw that the second brother was busy, and took the initiative to come over to help serve tea and water, which won a big smile from Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu didn't blame the third brother for not knowing how to help, because the kid drank a little too much and was sitting on a chair with a blushing face in a daze.
“The garden is well looked after”
Grandpa watched Li Xue serve tea with a smile, and said something to Li Xuewu who came over.
Li Xuewu also replied with a smile: "Sister Zhou helped to serve, and said that she can save a lot of food money in the fall."
Li Shun nodded and said, "That's the reason."
While talking, he turned his head to look at the grandma and said, "There is still some space in the courtyard of the third child, and I will plant something later."
This may be the influence of Chinese people's planting genes, and Li Shun has long wanted to grow some vegetables in the yard.
Yan Fugui's family across the door uses flower pots to grow vegetables every year, which can save some money.
This made Li Shun and Liu Yin, who were diligent and thrifty, talked about it a few times, but they didn't have so many flower pots at home, let alone such a big place, so they had to give up.
Li Xuewu nodded to the old Biaozi who was sitting beside him and said: "There is a piece of land on the mountain, and some vegetables are planted. In summer, Biaozi will bring it to the family. Don't waste that matter."
Li Shun looked at Li Xuewu, and said, "It's so troublesome to eat vegetables, how can there be benefits from growing at the door of the house."
Li Xuewen frowned and said: "Dad, let's listen to martial arts, it's not suitable."
Because of Zhao Yafang's influence, Li Xuewen has been reading newspapers recently, and has learned a lot about the current situation.
Especially regarding the field of culture, he had to pay attention.
Words derived from culture are not very popular, especially at this time, some things seem to be nothing, but they are actually pigtails.
Seeing that both the eldest son and the second son objected, Li Shun also thought of something.
He drank a lot today, but his mind was not muddled, he nodded clearly, and did not continue this topic.
After Liu Yin and the others finished cleaning up, the living room became lively again.
Li Xuewu and Gu Ning chatted with everyone for a while, and then were urged by their mother to go shopping.
This is what Li Xuewu said earlier, because he is getting married and hasn't bought anything for Gu Ning yet, so he decided to go out for a stroll today.
The two families wanted to chat for a while at the villa, but Li Xuewu had already arranged for Lao Biaozi to help, so he took Gu Ning out of the house after saying hello.
"Let's go to see the fabric first, and then go shopping."
What Li Xuewu took Gu Ning to visit was the Wangfujing shopping mall that he had encountered here before, and there were many things here.
Gu Ning didn't have any objections, as if he was dealing with a task, he regarded this kind of shopping as an obligation that must be fulfilled before marriage.
Because she doesn't like this kind of crowded environment, and she doesn't like shopping.
Li Xuewu knew this about her, so he didn't plan to torture Gu Ning, and took her to the fabric counter facing the lobby on the first floor with a purpose.
There are many kinds of colors and fabrics here. Li Xuewu remembered the materials and specific data explained by Li Guangnian, so it was not difficult to choose.
The salesperson also prefers people like Li Xuewu, who don't need nonsense explanations or introductions.
This five feet, that ten feet, Li Xuewu chose what he didn't have in his hand, and told the salesperson the size, and the salesperson took a yellow wooden ruler and quickly measured it.
After measuring, use scissors to open an opening, and tear it open with your hands with a squeak.
He folded the cut fabric and put it aside, then went to measure the next material Li Xuewu wanted.
The salesperson's efficiency is so high, it's all because Li Xuewu patted the cloth ticket on the counter first, otherwise he wouldn't be so happy.
"Let's go upstairs and have a look"
After buying the fabrics, Li Xuewu temporarily stored them on the counter and took Gu Ning to the second floor.
Gu Ning followed behind and looked at the people in the mall, and asked Li Xuewu, "What do you want to buy?"
"for wedding"
Li Xuewu said back to Gu Ning while climbing the stairs: "I always think it seems like something is almost there."
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu, and said: "There is nothing missing, I can take it home if I am in a hurry."
I don't know if it's to avoid trouble, or to save trouble, Gu Ning's way to deal with lack of things is to go home and get them.
In her concept, home is everywhere, and it is something she can use and control, and it is normal to take it wherever she takes it.
Li Xuewu was not in a hurry to correct Gu Ning's concept, because when she realized the gap, it was precisely when she was confused and sad.
"You want to buy a watch?"
When Gu Ning followed Li Xuewu to the watch counter, he looked at Li Xuewu in surprise.
Because she knew that Li Xuewu had a watch.
Li Xuewu nodded, did not answer, but looked down on the glass counter.
At this time, there were fewer styles of watches. Simply put, they were a large piece of round shape and a large piece of steel chain.
This is also related to people's aesthetics at this time, and it is also related to usage habits. The emphasis is on durability.
Li Xuewu tried his best to choose two very similar watches from the counter, including the brand and shape, dial and shape.
But the difference is that one watch is big and the other is small.
Li Xuewu also wanted to buy couple watches directly, but there was no such concept at this time. Neither the manufacturers nor the shopping malls put forward matching watches as a marketing concept.
Thanks to the simplicity of the current watch, this pairing is not difficult.
Li Xuewu turned his head to look at Gu Ning, and asked, "Do you like it?"
"You want to buy two?"
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu, and then looked at the watch inside the counter.
"Swiss-made mechanical watches in West Malaysia, thinner than domestic ones, all-steel shockproof"
The salesperson also saw that the two of them were not short of money, because they were dressed more neatly today.
In particular, Li Xuewu had a piece of West Horse in his hand, and now it looks like two pieces, so he also took the initiative to introduce it.
"This kind of watch strap not only has a steel chain, but also leather, which is said to be from a crocodile."
The salesperson introduced Li Xuewu in an indifferent and non-guaranteed tone, and his attitude couldn't be better, because the salespersons in the mall were much better than other places.
Gu Ning looked at the dial, it was the common white background at this time, with patterns in the disc, and golden Roman numerals on the outer dial.
At this time, the mechanical watch is not popular to leave the dial empty, so that you can see the structure inside, so the choice is mostly based on the style.
"I have a watch"
Gu Ning looked at this area, raised his head and said something to Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu smiled, and said to the impatient salesperson who heard Gu Ning's words: "Help me take out the two watches, let's try it, if it fits, please help us replace it with a leather strap."
The salesperson looked at Li Xuewu in surprise, she thought that the young woman would not buy it if she said she had it.
Looks like it's really worth the money.
"One hundred and six for men, one hundred and fifty for women"
The salesperson didn't say anything else, just quoted the price, and then looked at Li Xuewu, waiting for Li Xuewu's decision.
This means, I can take it, but it’s not for nothing, you should first consider the money in your pocket, you won’t be able to afford it if I don’t take it out.
Li Xuewu nodded with certainty, saying yes.
He didn't give a damn about the salesman's attitude, because if you cared about that, you wouldn't go out.
I searched all over the city, except for special stores, basically the service attitude was the same, or even worse.
Seeing that Li Xuewu insisted, the salesperson opened the cabinet door and took out the two watches.
Li Xuewu took the initiative to take the lady's money and helped Gu Ning carry it.
"After thinking about it, I still need a token of love before I get married."
Gu Ning let Li Xuewu help him put on the watch, but he didn't expect to hear Li Xuewu say this.
At this moment, regardless of the salesperson standing opposite to the light bulb, Gu Ning raised his head and looked into Li Xuewu's eyes.
Li Xuewu has never seen the light in Gu Ning's eyes like this before, and he can definitely understand the meaning in Gu Ning's eyes.
"I'm sure"
"Um"
Gu Ning nodded, looked down at the watch on his wrist, shook it, and felt very satisfied.
Maybe he leaned over the counter to choose it hard, maybe he also chose a pair that was like a person.
Li Xuewu turned his head to look at the salesperson who was watching the excitement, and said with a smile: "Thanks for your hard work, we want it."
"it is good"
The salesperson was also happy, and invoiced the two watches, collected Li Xuewu's money and tickets, and then took the watches and two boxes to the watch repair shop at the other end.
"Your monthly salary is gone"
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu, and said something briskly.
Li Xuewu turned his head, blinked his left eye, and said softly: "In the future, we can't negotiate salary outside. Those who don't believe it say we're bragging, and those who believe it will attract people's envy."
Gu Ning pursed his lips, but was still amused by Li Xuewu and smiled.
Indeed, there must not be many people who say a salary of more than 300 yuan at this time, especially a young man like Li Xuewu.
The nature of society is such that young people, even college students, do not make too much money.
Li Xuewu didn't dare to say that he was a college student, his college was like a joke.
"Are you free tomorrow?"
Li Xuewu asked: "If you can ask for leave, let's get the certificate tomorrow morning."
"Still wanting to tell you"
Gu Ning looked into Li Xuewu's eyes and said, "Maybe it's Tuesday, and there will be surgery on Monday."
Li Xuewu tilted his head, and nodded in disbelief. This is not a special TV series, and he will miss it for a lifetime after a while.
A day's delay won't matter, so Li Xuewu nodded happily.
"Then Tuesday morning, I'll pick you up"
Li Xuewu looked at the time in his hand and asked, "Shall I go and see the jewelry later?"
"No"
Gu Ning shook his head and said to Li Xuewu: "I don't like wearing those things, don't buy them, and you can't wear them to work."
What Gu Ning said could not be worn at work was not that doctors could not wear rings and earrings, but that they could not wear them during surgery.
Especially the ring, even the watch that Li Xuewu bought because it was a token of love, otherwise she would not have worn it.
So looking at Gu Ning, he just turned his face to the sky, without any decorations on his body, let alone any gold or silver things.
It's not that simple people in the era would not wear jewelry, old ladies wear bracelets, women wear ear coins, and no one said this.
I don't wear them because I don't have the money to buy them. Those who have money wear them well, and they also wear jewelry.
Li Xuewu nodded in understanding, and said: "I know you don't like it, so I just ask casually and try my luck."
Gu Ning pursed the corners of his mouth, looked at Li Xuewu and found that there was no disappointed expression on this person's face, but he was a little thankful.
Seeing Gu Ning staring at him, Li Xuewu smiled and said: "If you really want to go shopping, I must have enough money, but I don't have a single ticket."
Gu Ning pursed his lips and couldn't help laughing, then turned to look at the salesperson who came over.
"The strap has been replaced"
The salesperson put the watch on the box and pushed it over, and said in his mouth: "The metal watch chain is in the box, and if you change it again, you will have to charge a handling fee."
Of course, Li Xuewu would not expect the service of replacing the watch strap for free for life, and he did not eat bad things.
Picking up the lady's watch, he gestured to Gu Ning. Gu Ning pursed his lips and smiled, looking at Li Xuewu like a naive ghost, but still handed over his wrist.
Li Xuewu helped Gu Ning put on the watch very seriously, then deliberately shook Gu Ning's palm, as if checking whether the watch fit or not.
Gu Ning just watched Li Xuewu shaking his hand while standing at the counter was a salesperson with a mouthful of dog food and a very uncomfortable expression on his face.
He had never seen such a brazen person.
Li Xuewu also felt the disgusting look from the salesperson, so he had no choice but to let go of Gu Ning's hand, took off his watch and put it in his bag, and put on a new one.
When he was about to take Gu Ning to leave, Li Xuewu saw the salesperson rolling his eyes, and suddenly turned his head and asked, "Do you want to send watch strap care oil?"
The salesperson was taken aback by Li Xuewu's sudden turning back, and then looked at Li Xuewu in disbelief when he heard this, and then rolled his eyes.
That seems to mean: Are you crazy?We are so polite enough to sell you a watch, but you still think about what watch strap care oil I will give you for free?
Of course, Li Xuewu didn't want some care oil, but just deliberately frightened her.
Gu Ning saw that Li Xuewu was being mischievous on purpose, and stretched out his hand to pull him.
Knowing that Li Xuewu is not a nonsense person, he was teasing himself, deliberately making trouble with the salesman, so that he could take the initiative to talk to him to stop him from doing this.
But for the sake of Li Xuewu's good performance today, Gu Ning chose to give him this face.
Li Xuewu, who had gained face, was really sensible. He took the fabric he had saved from the counter on the first floor, and walked in front of him to open the door for Gu Ning.
Gu Ning kept smiling all the time. It can be said that today is a very happy day when the two are alone together.
It's not like I didn't get along alone in the past, but today's life is fulfilling and enjoyable.
Maybe this is the reason why women like to go shopping to relieve their worries, cure all diseases?
"Do you want to go to the bookstore?"
Li Xuewu put his things on the back seat, checked the time after getting in the car, and asked Gu Ning.
He knows that Gu Ning still prefers to visit bookstores.
"still not"
Gu Ning looked at the watch on his wrist unaccustomed to it. The waiter had adjusted the time just now, and it was already past three o'clock before he knew it.
"Go back and have a look"
"Um"
Li Xuewu nodded, knowing that Gu Ning was worried about the family, and Li Xuewu also understood the reason why he didn't leave both parents at home, and the two were happy outside.
When I drove the car back to the villa, I found that the car at the gate was gone and the gate was closed. Obviously, the families of both parties had left.
Li Xuewu and Gu Ning got off the car and entered the courtyard, but there was no one in the hall, and Zhou Yamei just walked down the stairs.
"You guys are back~"
