Chapter 448 Qin Huairu urges Xiaodang to get married
At the home appliance counter, Xiao Dang picked out a 21-inch color TV. Qin Huairu looked at the TV that Xiao Xuan picked out and wanted it very much, but she advised him, "Xiao Dang, this big color TV is so expensive! We can buy a smaller one and watch it just as well."
Xiao Dang knew what Qin Huairu was thinking and said, "Mom, you can listen to me." Then he said to the salesperson, "Comrade, I want this one. Please issue a ticket." After that, Xiao Dang took out a stack of foreign exchange certificates, counted out 25 foreign exchange certificates with a face value of 100, handed them to the salesperson and asked, "Do you deliver to your door?!"
The salesperson took the foreign exchange certificate and said, "We don't deliver to your door, but there are people who deliver goods at the door. If you live a short distance, you only need to pay 50 cents. If you live a long distance, you can negotiate the price yourself."
"Thank you!" Xiao Dang took the change and the delivery slip handed to her by the salesperson, turned her head to look at Qin Huairu and Huaihua, and said, "Mom, let's continue shopping."
Qin Huairu held Xiaodang and said, "We've already spent a lot of money today. Let's not go shopping anymore."
Xiao Dang said, "Mom, it's rare for us to go out for a walk. Besides, I still have a lot of foreign exchange certificates in my hand that I don't want to use!"
Qin Huairu's face changed and she said, "Listen to me! Let's not go shopping today!"
Seeing that his mother was about to get angry, Xiao Dang obediently agreed, "Okay! Let's not go shopping anymore! I'll go home with you." Then he asked, "Mom, what are we having for lunch today?!"
Qin Huairu immediately showed an embarrassment when she heard Xiaodang's question. After hesitating for a few seconds, Qin Huairu saw the counter selling cooked food in the Friendship Store and said, "There are cooked food over there. Buy whatever you like. We have ready-made two-grain steamed buns at home. You just need to steam them and you can eat them."
Xiao Dang sighed deeply and said, "Since I went to Hong Kong City, I have never eaten two-grain steamed buns again."
Huaihua asked: "Sister, you don't eat two-grain flour buns, do you eat white flour buns?!"
Xiaodang laughed and said, "They eat rice and bread over there. Anyway, there is everything there. You can buy anything you can think of." Then Xiaodang took out a foreign exchange certificate with a face value of 100 yuan and stuffed it into Huaihua's hand, saying, "Buy whatever you want to eat. Don't save money for your sister."
"Sister! I love you so much!" Huaihua ran to the prepared food counter. Looking at the prepared food at the counter, Huaihua was a little confused. There were too many things. After a struggle, Huaihua gritted her teeth and bought a roast chicken, a duck with sauce, and a piece of beef with sauce.
Qin Huairu was so distressed when she saw what Huaihua had in her hand! Qin Huairu looked at Xiaodang and asked, "How many foreign exchange certificates do you have? Give them all to me! So that you two sisters won't waste them."
"Mom, this is the money I earned, why should I give it to you?!" Xiaodang looked at Huaihua and said, "Let's go! Let's ignore our mom."
"Oh!" Huaihua responded and followed Xiaodang happily.
Qin Huairu looked at her two daughters from behind and suddenly had the urge to beat them up. However, Qin Huairu finally held back and chased after them angrily.
Xiaodang took Huaihua to the entrance of the Friendship Store, found a Wobo, and negotiated a price. Xiaodang took Wobo to the warehouse behind to pick up the newly bought TV and put it on a cart. Xiaodang saw that his mother was gone and asked, "Huaihua, have you seen our mother?!"
Huaihua looked around and said, "Our mother was here just now! How come she disappeared in the blink of an eye?!" Huaihua saw her mother talking to a strange man at a corner. So Huaihua pulled Xiaodang, pointed to the corner in front, and asked, "Sister, is that our mother?!"
Xiaodang looked in the direction Huaihua pointed, and it was Qin Huairu. Xiaodang muttered, "What is our mother doing there?!"
Wobo, who was standing nearby, said, "That man over there is Niu San, who deals in foreign exchange certificates in this area. Your mother is either exchanging foreign exchange certificates there or using them to exchange for our money."
Xiao Dang looked at Huaihua and asked, "Where is the foreign exchange certificate I got back from buying cooked food just now?!"
Huaihua answered honestly: "Mom said she had never seen a foreign exchange certificate, and she took fifty from her."
"Yes! Mom must be bargaining with them!" Before Xiaodang finished speaking, Qin Huairu came over with a look of victory. Xiaodang asked directly: "Mom, did you exchange the foreign exchange certificates you got from Huaihua for money?!"
"Yes!" Qin Huairu admitted it directly, and then said: "Foreign exchange coupons can only be used to buy things at the Friendship Store. It is better to exchange them for our local currency." Then he asked: "How much do you have left? Give it all to me."
Xiaodang said, "Mom, you don't have to worry about the foreign exchange certificates in my hand." Then he said to Huaihua and Wobo, "Let's go!"
"You little girl, was it easy for me to raise you to that age? What's wrong with me using some of your money?!" Qin Huairu saw that Xiaodang and Huaihua had already walked far away, and hurriedly chased after them.
"Qin Huairu, you're back?! What did you buy?!" Qin Huairu had just entered the alley with Xiaodang and Huaihua when the neighbors saw the things on the cart pulled by Wobo. They all gathered around like flies smelling fishy smell.
Qin Huairu smiled and replied, "My little girl took me and her sister to the Friendship Store today. She bought us a set of clothes each and a large color TV."
"Qin Huairu, you are so lucky!"
Qin Huairu felt a sense of ecstasy when she heard the compliments from her neighbors. Xiaodang and Huaihua saw Qin Huairu's expression and shook their heads at the same time, sighing. Xiaodang thought to himself, "It's over! I can't keep this mother anymore. I should find a way to take Huaihua away as soon as possible!"
Huaihua thought to herself, "Mom won't sell me out just because of a few compliments, right?!"
Xiaodang and Huaihua felt a little nervous when being stared at by their neighbors, and the two sisters unconsciously quickened their pace.
When Xiaodang installed the TV and adjusted the channels, Qin Huairu walked in from outside. Xiaodang and Huaihua looked at each other, and Huaihua asked, "Mom, when are we going to eat?!"
Qin Huairu asked: "Huaihua, where did you put the cooked food you bought?!"
Huaihua replied, "I put it in the kitchen."
"Okay! You two just wait! I'll get it done for you right away. I really owe you this in my previous life." After saying that, Qin Huairu turned and went into the kitchen next door.
After about a quarter of an hour, Qin Huairu came in with a plate in her hand and said, "Stop looking at me, both of you. Come on, give me a hand! Let's eat!"
"Oh!" Huaihua and Xiaodang answered in unison. Xiaodang turned off the TV and followed Huaihua to the kitchen to bring the food. The three of them sat together and started to eat.
Halfway through the meal, Qin Huairu said, "Xiaodang, you are not young anymore. Isn't it time to find a husband?!"
Xiaodang's heart skipped a beat and he said, "Mom, did those aunts and uncles at the door say something to you?!"
Qin Huairu said, "Xiaodang, you can make money. But as women, we must have a home, right?! In our area, the children of people your age are already in school."
