Li Donglai knew nothing about Yu Li's little thoughts. He was immersed in the joy of his upcoming wedding.
For a period of time after that, apart from going to work, I worked with Ding Qiunan to buy things for this small family.
Everyone in the hospital also knew that the two were about to get married and would take the initiative to help them share the work.
No, when the bell rang at noon, Ding Qiunan took Li Donglai and went straight to the Capital Department Store.
Li Donglai was a little confused. He had planned to go shopping with Ding Qiunan after get off work in the afternoon.
But he was robbed first.
What else is this fool going to buy me?
These days, Ding Qiunan spends all her previous savings.
Of course, most of it was spent on Li Donglai.
Now Li Donglai has two sets of Chinese tunic suits, three pairs of pants, and even two pairs of leather shoes.
The old leather shoes with half of the soles worn off and the mouth open were found and touched by Yan Bugui.
Of course, Li Donglai was taller and had bigger feet than Yan Bugui. Putting on those old leather shoes, Yan Bugui felt like rowing a boat.
But this couldn't help Yan Bugui, so he asked the third aunt to put two pairs of shoe mats inside.
This operation made Li Donglai stupid.
Is this the legendary saying, how big are your shoes and how big are my feet?
...
Arriving at the Capital Department Store, Ding Qiunan pulled Li Donglai directly to the second floor and to the clock counter.
"Brother Donglai, let's buy a watch?"
"Where did you get the clock coupon?"
"The old man handed it out at school yesterday."
"What a coincidence, I also have one here." Li Donglai smiled and took out a coupon, "I was thinking about buying you a watch, but I didn't expect that we would go together."
Tears slowly accumulated in Ding Qiunan's watery eyes.
"Brother Donglai..."
"Let's choose quickly. We have to go back to work later." Li Donglai stretched out his hand and flicked her forehead.
"...."
There are seven or eight models of watches on the counter, including Shanghai brand, Seagull brand, Dongfeng brand...
Li Donglai's eyes lit up when he saw the Shanghai watch.
In previous lives, there was a saying that the poor played computers and the rich played watches.
Since he came to this era, he has always paid attention to watches, a symbol of successful men.
Among the watches, Shanghai Watch is the most respected. The bright case has the words "Serve the People" engraved on the back, which is deeply loved by the people in the capital.
However, Shanghai brand watches are not only expensive but also available in limited quantities.
They only cost more than a dozen yuan a month in Beijing, and they are often sold out as soon as they arrive.
I met it today and naturally I can’t miss it.
"Comrade, help me get a Shanghai watch." Li Donglai said with a smile.
The salesperson put his hand into the counter, then retracted it, and asked seriously: "There are two types of Shanghai watches, which one do you want?"
"Two types?" Li Donglai came to the counter to take a closer look, and sure enough he saw two Shanghai watches with different styles inside.
"What's the difference?"
"The one on the left is a semi-steel watch, priced at 70 yuan and a watch ticket." Perhaps the salesperson was afraid that it would be difficult to explain, so he simply took out both watches, "The one on the right is an all-steel watch, priced at 120 yuan.
Yuan plus two watch tickets.”
Li Donglai reached out to take it and picked it up. Sure enough, the right side was much heavier than the left.
The style of the watch is also more powerful. The hands are inlaid with purple gemstones, which makes it look much nobler.
If you have to choose, definitely buy an all-steel watch.
Money is no problem, but two watch tickets are required.
Once you buy an all-steel watch, you can't buy a watch for Ding Qiunan.
Next to him, Ding Qiunan saw Li Donglai staring at the all-steel watch. He stretched out his hand to pull the corner of his clothes and whispered: "I heard from others that there are very few all-steel watches. We are really lucky to meet us today. Why don't we get this one first?"
I’ll take the all-steel watch, and I’ll buy another watch when I get the chance in the future.”
Li Donglai smiled and shook his head, and handed the all-steel watch back to the salesperson: "Comrade, I buy this semi-steel watch. Then take out the Seagull women's watch and let us take a look."
Ding Qiunan pouted and muttered in a low voice: "Why are you so stubborn!", but his heart felt sweet.
...
Some people's hearts are as sweet as honey, and some people's hearts are as sweet as yellow lotus.
At this moment, the weather is hot and dry, the machines in the workshop have been running all morning, and the heat emitted turns the entire workshop into a big steamer.
Everyone was hiding under the shade of the trees outside to rest, and Jia Xudong sneaked into the workshop.
He walked around the workshop and saw no one else. With a smile on his face, he tiptoed to a steel coiling machine.
There was half a piece of white iron sheet inside this steel coiling machine. Jia Xudong wanted to take it off and wrap it around his waist until he got off work.
Nowadays, steel rolling mills are strictly managed and almost no one can carry anything out. The reason why Jia Xudong took the risk was because he owed a lot of gambling debts to others.
Those people were so cruel that if Jia Xudong didn't pay back the money on time, he would lose one of his hands.
Jia Xudong knew that those people could do what they said, but all the Jia family's money was in the hands of the Jia Zhang family.
There was really no other way, so Jia Xudong had no choice but to steal foreign iron sheets and sell them in the pigeon market.
He had already succeeded two days ago and was very experienced, so he did not choose the iron sheet on the ground next to him.
Because the tin sheets are in complete pieces, once they are cut, they will easily attract the attention of the workers.
The iron sheet in the steel rolling mill has already been cut off in half, and even if it is cut into two feet, it cannot be seen.
Although there was no one in the workshop, Jia Xudong was still afraid of being discovered by someone who accidentally broke in.
While looking outside, he picked up a pair of powerful pliers and cut along the iron sheet.
As luck would have it, Yi Zhonghai had a salty meal at lunch and returned to the workshop to get the enamel jar.
At this time, the iron sheet was only half cut, and Jia Xudong suddenly panicked when he heard footsteps coming from outside.
He wanted to cut off the iron sheet with great force, but unexpectedly the handle of the pliers hit the button on the machine.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The machine started instantly, and the steel rod rotated rapidly, driving the steel cable below.
Jia Xudong happened to have one foot on the steel rope. By the time he realized something was wrong, it was already too late.
After a burst of severe pain, his vision went dark.
Hearing the roar of the machine, Yi Zhonghai quickly ran over and saw Jia Xudong being caught in the rolling mill.
He quickly pulled off the switch and burst into tears: "Xudong, wake up, Xudong, I am your master!"
Soon, the workers who heard the noise rushed over. Seeing the tragic scene, they hurriedly comforted: "Master Yi, don't cry in a hurry. I think Xudong can still breathe, let's send him to him quickly."
Hospital."
"Yes, yes, I'm confused!" Yi Zhonghai hurriedly got up from the ground and called on the workers to rescue Jia Xudong from under the rolling mill.
At this time, Jia Xudong's lower body was already bloody and bloody.
After being sent to the rolling mill hospital, considering the critical situation, surgeon Dr. Huang immediately performed surgery on Jia Xudong.
Li Donglai and Ding Qiunan returned to the Steel Rolling Mill Hospital from the department store, and happened to meet Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu in the corridor who had come after hearing the news.
Seeing their panicked expressions, Li Donglai's heart sank.
