Siheyuan: Start with Security

"This is beer. It's delicious. It costs fifty cents a bottle. Would you like a can?"

Yang Chen said with a smirk, this is beer, it's the first time I drink it, I definitely don't think it tastes good.

"Is this higher than baijiu?" Qin Jingru didn't immediately agree. She also drank baijiu at home, but she could only drink one glass, not a bottle.

"A bottle of beer is equivalent to half a glass of white wine."

"That's okay, I'll drink a bottle." After hearing this, Qin Jingru brought a bottle directly, opened it and took a sip.

In the next second, she directly frowned and said:

"It's so hard to drink, it tastes so weird."

"If it doesn't taste good, stop drinking it and eat more meat."

Yang Chen said with a smile, people who drink beer for the first time will indeed feel uncomfortable.

"Forget it, it's fifty cents a bottle. If you don't drink it, it's a waste. It's all money."

Qin Jingru shook his head and continued to drink.

Seeing this, Yang Chen didn't persuade her, beer is so delicious, you can experience its delicious taste after drinking it.

The two ate hot pot while chatting, and soon they were full.

Yang Chen got up to pay the bill, took Qin Jingru's little hand and walked out.

"Brother Chen, shall we go back now?"

After coming out, Qin Jingru looked at Yang Chen, and said with a bit of reluctance.

She finally saw Yang Chen, and she didn't want to be separated for a moment.

But after returning to Qin Huairu's house, it's not very convenient to go to Yang Chen's house, after all, the relationship between a man and a widow is not confirmed, and it is easy to be scolded by others behind his back.

"Of course I won't go back. It's still early. I'll take you to the mall."

Yang Chen pointed to the shopping mall not far from the hot pot restaurant, and said with a smile.

"Why don't we go somewhere else."

Qin Jingru looked at the shopping mall in front of her and shook her head. She has no money in such a big shopping mall, so why go in?

"Let's go, go in and take a stroll." Yang Chen smiled, took her hand, and walked towards the mall.

He understood Qin Jingru's thoughts. In this era, many people are like this, and even in later generations, many people are like this.

That is, when you go to a shopping mall or any consumer place, you must buy something. If you don’t have money in your pocket, you dare not go in.

"I don't buy anything when I go in, so I don't want it."

Qin Jingru hugged Yang Chen's hand anxiously, and said coquettishly.

"We have known each other for so long, I haven't given you anything yet, I'm going to buy you a padded jacket today, let's go."

Yang Chen smiled, feeling that Qin Jingru was so cute to her in an instant, he couldn't help but gently pinched Qin Jingru's face with his hands.

"They didn't buy you a gift. I'm embarrassed to ask you to give it to me."

Although Qin Jingru wanted it in her heart, she was afraid that Yang Chen would look down on her, so she was very entangled for a while.

Yang Chen touched Qin Jingru's head again, and said with a smile: "Then, when you go back, help me clean the house, it's considered a gift."

"Brother Chen, you are too kind to me." Qin Jingru looked at Yang Chen with bright eyes, and those eyes contained emotion and friendship.

"Don't worry, I'm here. I'll keep your house clean. As long as I come to the city, I'll clean it for you."

"Well, then I will leave the hygiene of my house to you."

Yang Chen said with a smile, then took Qin Jingru's little hand, and walked towards the department store.

He really likes Qin Jingru a little bit now. Although many people say that she worships money, her wish is to marry in the city, and after marriage, to be a good wife and mother.

If he really worshiped money, then Xu Damao went to pick up bottles and became a beggar. Why didn't Qin Jingru abandon him?

But Teacher Ran is also very good, and Qin Jingru is also very good, hey, who should I choose as my wife, it's so embarrassing.

"A lot of beautiful clothes, Brother Chen."

After entering the department store, Qin Jingru said in amazement, interrupting Yang Chen's thoughts.

Yang Chen looked in the direction she pointed, these clothes looked very rustic in his eyes, but in the eyes of people of this era, they were indeed trendy.

Compared with the clothes Qin Jingru was wearing, she looked even more beautiful.

Her cotton-padded clothes had traces of mending from the beginning to the end, and it could be regarded as a response to that sentence. It took three years to reverse, and three years to mend and mend.

Yang Chen pulled her in, and no one greeted her along the way.

The salespersons were chatting in groups of three or five, and if they saw them, they would not glance at them.

But this is also normal. Whether it is a shopping mall or a restaurant, everyone is like this in this era.

These people all regard themselves as workers, and they are too proud. They look down on factory workers, let alone ordinary people.

Yang Chen didn't care, after all, don't talk about himself, even if it's a big leader, as long as they are not in charge of them, they will have the same attitude.

Because she was buying cotton clothes, Qin Jingru could only reluctantly let go of those beautiful clothes she saw just now.

The two walked to the place where cotton clothes were sold and looked at them.

"Brother Chen, this is so beautiful."

Qin Jingru had an admiring tone, and Yang Chen turned his head to look.

The dress she fancy is strictly speaking a military overcoat, keeping warm is to keep warm, if it looks good, then forget it.

But in this era, as long as clothes can appear in department stores, they are the best and most fashionable in this era.

And this military overcoat, even if many people in later generations will wear it, it looks good, if so, then buy this one.

Anyway, people are good-looking, and they look good in anything.

The main reason is that there is no choice, Yang Chen has already read all the cotton clothes just now, and there are only a few choices.

The army green coat is obviously the most popular, and it is placed in the most conspicuous place. The rest are different types, that is, different colors.

I thought department stores had different options.

Chapter 60 Deep Roots

"Comrade, pay the bill."

Yang Chen yelled loudly to the chatting salesperson several times, and the salesperson walked over impatiently.

"This dress costs 78 yuan."

The salesperson glanced at Qin Jingru, and could tell at a glance that she couldn't afford it, so she said directly to Yang Chen.

But with a little more money, it is enough to buy a bicycle. She really can't figure it out, these two people are stupid, come here to buy clothes.

Yang Chen wasn't surprised when he heard this, it's like this in this era, a piece of clothing can cost an ordinary worker a few months' wages.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be the phrase "three years of sewing and mending".

In this era, the cost of dressing is too high, because cloth and cotton are now in short supply.

Even if you are buying summer clothes and a month's salary, you have to contribute to it.

So except for some wealthy people, normal people, even if they wear new clothes for the New Year, they buy their own fabrics and make them.

"Why don't you buy it? It's too expensive."

Qin Jingru looked at Yang Chen and said distressedly, the clothes are too expensive, she used to sew clothes for her at home, and she didn't know the price of the clothes.

That's why I agreed to Yang Chen to buy clothes, but now that I know it, I don't want it anymore, it's a waste of money to buy clothes.

Yang Chen shook his head. Since he agreed, he will definitely buy it, and it's not for others, so there's no need to feel distressed.

"Take two and pay the bill."

Yang Chen took out a handful of unity from his pocket, counted it and handed it to the salesperson, then took out a cloth ticket from another pocket, and threw it on the sales desk.

The salesperson looked at Yang Chen in surprise. She didn't expect Yang Chen to ask for two at once. This is the son of that family, so rich?

"What are you doing in a daze? Get your clothes."

Yang Chen said impatiently, since he came to the mall, this salesperson has been out of shape.

Although he also understands that the salesperson is helping the government, it is normal to have a bad attitude, but now that the money has been paid, it is unreasonable to behave like this.

Seeing Yang Chen's posture just now, the salesperson thought it was the son of that family, and didn't dare to show his temper for a while, so he hurriedly went to get two pieces of clothes.

"Jingru, go and try this one." Yang Chen took one of them and handed it to Qin Jingru. As for the other one, he wanted to change it himself.

He hasn't bought any clothes yet when he came here, and what he wears all the time are the clothes that his predecessors have mended before.

Although this army green coat is not good-looking, but compared to the clothes he sewed, it is indeed fashionable.

"Okay, I'll try it."

Qin Jingru nodded, she was really touched just now.

It was the first time someone bought clothes for her, and the price was so expensive, she paid without saying a word.

Treating her better than her parents, such a man, I can't let him go until I die.

Yang Chen looked at Qin Jingru who was still stupidly standing there after taking the clothes, not knowing what he was thinking, and said with a smile:

"Jingru, what's wrong with you? Go and try it."

"Well, good." Qin Jingru was fantasized by Yang Chen, looked at Yang Chen affectionately, and went to change clothes.

Seeing her expression, Yang Chen was a little puzzled for a moment, but he didn't think about it, took the other one, and went into the fitting room to change.

Although he is not a woman, he can change outside, just take off the coat, but if the salesman says he is playing hooligans, it will not be fun.

Yang Chen changed into his overcoat in the fitting room, and felt a lot more comfortable in an instant. Sure enough, his own sewing is still not as professional as it is.

After I came out, I looked in the mirror, and my heroic appearance exuded a bit more temperament than before.

Sure enough, people rely on clothes, this coat, Yang Chen fell in love with it all at once, and completely forgot about the complaints he made in his heart just now.

After a while, Qin Jingru also came out, and Yang Chen was amazed when he saw it.
