After hearing what Ma Xiaoli said, Xu Rong accepted it and took the money and went to the counter.
"Comrade Shen, I've found some fabric, and there's just one piece left," the salesperson's voice sounded.
Shen Man turned around and walked over, "Let's issue the ticket."
She didn't go to Ma Xiaoli. It wouldn't be good to handle this matter. After all, it was someone else's business.
But this cloth is heavy enough, so I can take it to Gu Chen's office and take it home when he gets off work.
As for here, there is no tailor. When the time comes, we need to find someone else, so there is no rush.
Shen Man went to pick out some sheets and quilts, trying to choose solid colors or plain ones.
Li Jinhua likes to bring flowers, so she bought some and tried her best to take care of everyone.
These things take time, so she bought the last kind of white towel to cover the sofa and appliances, and she had completed the task.
There were too many things. Shen Man took the small parts back by himself and sent the rest to Gu Chen's office.
The sales staff here are very enthusiastic and many people come to help.
"Thank you." Shen Man handed out toffee one by one. She still had some of these and usually gave out two pieces to children when she saw them.
"Oh, you're welcome."
"That's right, they are all from the same unit. Of course we have to help Director Gu with his matter."
Everyone was very enthusiastic, and most of them did it for Gu Chen's sake.
Of course, when you sit in this position, it is normal for those below you to fawn over you.
After thanking everyone, Gu Chen closed the office door.
"Just let me do this. Why do you go there yourself?" He walked over and took Shen Man's hand.
Alas, I don’t know why, but he likes Shen Man.
I wish I could nail a board to the wall and put it on it, but I wouldn't even want to touch it.
Shen Man smiled and said, "I have nothing to do anyway. Besides, I picked the ones I like. What do you know?"
The two chatted for a few words, and then she went home.
In the following days, Gu Chen was very busy looking for someone to customize furniture.
After Shen Man saw Xu Rong last time, he felt a little worried about Ma Xiaoli.
That person is obviously Phoenix Man's wannabe, and if he continues to be deceived, I'm afraid Ma Xiaoli will be defrauded of all the money she saved for her two sons.
Thinking of this, Shen Man went to find Ma Xiaoli and prepared to inquire about the situation.
It's definitely not okay to say that someone cheated you out of money.
Ma Xiaoli was washing clothes at home and was a little surprised to see her come.
"How did you know I had a day off today?"
Hearing this, Shen Man smiled and said, "I passed by the food factory and asked about it, then I came over."
She specifically called Director Liu to ask about someone passing by.
Director Liu was not from the secretary's office, so he asked someone to inquire before he found out the result.
Seeing what she said, Ma Xiaoli didn't ask any more questions, and the two started chatting instead.
Shen Man noticed that there were several men's clothes in the pool. They looked relatively large and could not belong to the two children.
The two of them couldn't turn around Xu Rong, so she got up and walked around, then stopped next to the pool.
"Hey? Sister Xiaoli, do these clothes belong to your child? They look so big." She said casually.
What she didn't expect was that Ma Xiaoli reacted so strongly.
"Ah?" The man came over in a hurry, pulled his clothes, and smiled awkwardly.
Maybe he didn't think of a good excuse, so he said: "The person you met that day is currently in college in the city and has no time to wash clothes, so I helped wash them. It was only two pieces of clothes. I washed the family's clothes and took them with me. one time."
go to school?
Shen Man then remembered that many people who took the college entrance examination last year went to the city.
Nowadays, there is a wave of returning to the city to study, and many people in their thirties are also rushing to go to college to find a way out.
People like Xu Rong are not uncommon. Most of them just want to turn around and don't want to stay in the countryside for the rest of their lives.
Hearing this, Shen Man hesitated and said, "Sister Xiaoli, is he single?"
At this time, few educated youths who went to the countryside remained single, especially Xu Rong, who was not young at all. He looked to be about thirty years old. It was impossible for him to remain single forever, right?
Ma Xiaoli didn't know why she asked, but she still replied: "He said he was alone, I don't know either."
The two have known each other for so long, but it seems that they have never seen other women appear next to Xu Rong.
"You misunderstood!" Ma Xiaoli suddenly came back to her senses and said with a smile: "I don't have that idea about him."
After all, she is older than the other person, no matter what the situation, she is embarrassed to admit it.
Thinking of this, she looked inferior again.
Seeing this, Shen Man said calmly: "Sister Xiaoli, I heard that many female college students have been deceived recently. Some educated youths came back to deceive people into being single, but they are actually raising families in rural areas."
"You'd better be careful. It's okay to be defrauded of money, but it's not that uncomfortable to be defrauded of your feelings and money."
This was the reminder because they had a good relationship. After all, they had been together for several years. If they were just friends, she wouldn't bother.
What's more, Ma Xiaoli is no longer a single girl. She is a mother of two children. She must choose the right person when she remarries, otherwise she will not be able to lose.
Ma Xiaoli's face turned pale. She naturally did not expect such things to happen.
After a while, she smiled awkwardly: "It's impossible, right? Can college students still lie to others?"
"Liars don't care about academic qualifications." Shen Man gave her a slap in the head.
If you try to persuade people to think better at this time, isn’t that deceiving yourself and others?
It would be fine if this person had nothing else on his mind...
However, Shen Man feels that this situation is unlikely. Otherwise, how could a woman buy clothes for him?
If you lose your money, it will be the same next time you buy it.
Ma Xiaoli didn't speak anymore, and she didn't know if she heard it.
After chatting for a few words, Shen Man saw that she was distracted and went back.
As for whether this person is thoughtful or not, that doesn't matter. All that needs to be said has been said.
After Shen Man left, Ma Xiaoli pursed her lips and stopped washing her clothes.
She looked at the time and saw that it was still early, just past ten in the morning.
Then I packed up, changed my clothes and went out.
Yes, she does have some thoughts about Xu Rong, and he is single and has ambiguous behavior towards her.
So Ma Xiaoli decided to get along with him, but she didn't expect Shen Man to say this today.
She was not unhappy, but rather a little suspicious, because Xu Rong was indeed a little anxious. They had only known each other for a month, and the other party was anxious to confirm their relationship.
Then there was the matter of spending money, everything was so sudden.
When Shen Man returned home, he packed his things first.
The quilt at home has been used for several years, but it is actually not as warm as before.
The winter in Northeast China is very cold, so I need to make the quilt again.
One thing I have to say is that the Northeast has four distinct seasons and can feel all the 24 solar terms. Other places are completely different from here.
Shen Man calculated how many quilts he needed, and then wrote down that he would need to make a large purchase tomorrow.
Find a tailor by the way and we can make curtains together.
Looking at it this way, I need to make these preparations in the next month.
But that’s okay, decorating your own home is a very satisfying thing.
