Pure White Core

Chapter 38 New Clothes

Early in the morning, when I yawned and got up from the bed on the sofa, Huihui was already squatting by the stove and lighting a fire. She had the key to my house, and she wanted to make breakfast for me today.In Huihui's words, I'm always lazy and incapable of doing things. If it were her, she would be a hundred times better than me.

Although she was clumsy, stumbling and stumbling, I wasted a lot of effort, but after all, I was able to have a hot breakfast lying on the sofa, and I was very grateful even if there was no way to make milk powder and sweet bread.

Huihui babbled to me while gnawing on the bread and told me that after she 'opened her eyes' yesterday, she saw a lot of light red silk thread on Grandpa's body, and pulled off one after another, making a big ball, and now it's all in the ring hiding.

I asked her if her grandpa felt better, and she said that she felt that grandpa slept soundly last night, and he felt much better today.

The red silk thread she collected is not the "source of disease", but something called "inducing source". Repelling is good for the body.

I don't understand what these things have to do with the "curse". Could it be that the so-called "curse" is to put various "sources of disease" with negative effects on the target?

Huihui and I were rewarded with the ability to "open eyes" and touch the source of the disease, but we didn't know anything about the functions and effects of these things, and we had to explore slowly by ourselves.

On the way to school in the morning, the cold wind was blowing, and my thickest clothes were long gone. Now I am thin and shivering from the cold.

When I passed by the school next door, I pointed out the red gate to Huihui. I knew that through the gate, I could see a spacious yard, but there was a big dog in the yard, and it would bark when people approached. Neng pointed out from a long distance: "This yard is about three to four hundred square meters including a few broken brick houses. After buying it and renovating it, you can live in it. I tied the sheep under the fruit trees in the yard..."

well!I don’t know if people sell this yard, if they sell it, how much, who should I ask to buy it for me, and will the person who buys it for me bully me when I am young and embezzle my money?

Until I sat in the dark classroom, I was still having a headache about it. What should I do?

Today is Tuesday, which means that Huihui and I will enter the Pure White Core again in six days, and our lives will be gone at any time, but we haven't figured out how to spend the money yet...

Maybe we should give the money to the one-legged old man. Even if the greedy old man will hide most of it, even if the greedy old man will try to extract the source of the money from us, we can still enjoy a small part. It's better than pinching your hands and not being able to spend it now.

The end of morning reading is the time for wealthy students to buy breakfast and show off while eating, while those who have no money and poor are forced to pretend to read texts and write new words to study hard. Huihui and I were full before we came, chatting with our heads on our arms.

"Huihui, what do you want?" I put a piece of paper in front of me, planning to make a list and buy them all when the time comes.

"I don't know." Huihui was at a loss, tilted her head and thought for a while before slowly saying, "I don't seem to have anything in particular."

"You don't want new clothes?" I asked her.

She hesitated, as if she wanted to say she wanted it, but she felt that it was not that urgent.

"That's it," Huihui looked down at her dirty coat chest, "I think I'm fine now."

Uh... I really don't know what to say.

To be honest, I also had a similar confusion. I was very excited when I had five dollars in my pocket. I wanted to tell the world, I wanted everyone to know that I had five dollars, and I wanted to spend the five dollars immediately. It is good to be able to use a thousand kinds of flowering methods to flower it in different ways.

Now I suddenly have 1 yuan, thinking that I can buy whatever I want, but the house I want to buy can’t be bought, and I suddenly feel as if I don’t need anything, so that’s fine.

This is definitely not possible now, I have to change, at least when I go to the White Core again this weekend, Huihui and I have to wear strong, warm and easy-to-move clothes, we have to bring enough water, food and tools, Even Xu Dazhi and Wang Shufen can think of things, I have no reason to do worse than them.

I have to eat well, I have to exercise, I have to read some books about survival in the wild, and I'd better find someone to learn boxing kung fu...

I really have a lot to do.

"Yu Shaorong, are you going to buy clothes after school?" Hui Hui grabbed my arm and frowned, "But I have to go home after school, so I can't go with you." Her grandfather was waiting for her, and she was 10 minutes late when she came home. call her.

"You don't have to go, I'll buy your clothes for you." Huihui is as tall as me, and there is no difference in the size of our clothes. When I buy clothes, I just need an extra set.

"I want to go with you. I haven't been there yet." Huihui is worse than me. She hasn't bought clothes yet.

"I will take you to buy it when I have time on the weekend. I will go shopping by myself today."

Despite Huihui's reluctance, I still sent her home after school, and then went to the trade center by myself.

The bustling flow of people in winter and the huge and dilapidated billboards in the trade center show two completely contradictory temperaments of prosperity and decline. At the entrance of the "famous brand children's clothing store" full of cottage atmosphere, the middle-aged women in gaudy clothes are crossing their legs in boredom. Watching the story meeting, she just glanced at me and didn't bother to pay attention, I'm not her client.

I'm really not her customer, although for a few seconds I wanted to go in and buy clothes for myself and Huihui that didn't look so shabby, but the fancy clothes in the store and the fat butterfly-like proprietress all exuded disgust. Breath, I don't want to spend money at her house.

I went into the sporting goods store next door.

My shabby and dirty clothes guide the clerk to give me the treatment I deserve. The owner of the sporting goods store has glanced at me intentionally or unintentionally since I came in. Poor people like me will come in sneakily.` Nine is stealing ping pong balls or shuttlecocks.

"Is there a coat I can wear?" I asked him.

"You?" He was a little surprised: "How tall are you?"

"1.2 meters."

"You have 1.2 meters?" The boss didn't quite believe it and asked for a ruler.

"1.1 meters."

"Huh?" The boss pulled the tape measure away.

"Not so much." I kind of want to hit someone.

Judging by the boss's appearance, I don't think I can afford his clothes. The black sportswear fabric is indeed very strong. I took off my coat to reveal an old sweater with creaky holes. The boss couldn't hide his disgust.He definitely doesn't want me to try on his clothes, it's hard to sell them if they're dirty.

"Don't be afraid, I have money." I took out five 100-yuan bills from my trouser pocket and patted them on the counter.

"I'm not afraid, you can try it if you don't buy it." The male boss spoke in a loud voice, but he must have said something insincere.

I like this black close-fitting jacket. After trying it on for a while, I took it off, picked out the chemical fiber vest, sports underwear and sports shorts, and went to the fitting room to change.

Tank tops, bodysuits and thick long football socks, with a layer of light sweatpants and a sports vest, then a light tight top, and finally a coat with a hood.

If you count my sneakers with metal studs on my feet and a comfortable line cap on my head, I'm fully equipped.

"Are you hot?"

"It's okay," I wiped off the sweat from my forehead. "I'm very satisfied. I'll get another set in this size. Do you have any styles for girls? Just get two more sets in this size."

"There are some brighter ones, red and yellow, but they are not resistant to dirt." The boss probably rarely sees such a bold young customer, and he can't speak very fluently.

"Forget it, if you don't need other colors, just take the black one, and get me two more sets."

I bought a total of four sets of sportswear from the inside to the outside. I added a few more sets of underwear and sports socks for washing. To be honest, the shape of the sportswear is dark and dull, but it is for the next time I go to pure white. Nuclear preparation, strong and comfortable first, appearance does not matter.

Huihui must know how to save her life, and then she will have the simple reason of not being able to wear out all the flowery skirts in the future.

This time I spent nearly 700 yuan on shopping. I am not good at bargaining, but since the boss offered me a lot of things, I didn’t think about it. I noticed that there are also strong ropes and some Simple outdoor tools are already hard to come by in a small county like ours. I will come back to buy more things on weekends.

All the coats, underwear, shoes and socks I wore when I came here were stuffed into plastic bags and thrown into the garbage dump. The things I just bought were packed in three big plastic bags. I hired a rickshaw to take everything home.I haven’t seen a rickshaw for many years. I sat in a position where the wind leaked and watched my stooped body pedaling hard. I was not used to this indescribable sense of disobedience.

"Yu Shaorong, are you back?" Huihui poked her head out from the gap in the door curtain: "Wow! New clothes!"

"Finish the meal!" The loud voice of the one-legged old man was useless at all. His granddaughter ran out of the house like a rabbit when she saw me, and then came in with me, bang!Shut the door tightly with a bang.

"Two sets of yours, everything from underwear, shoes and socks to coats. These are what you wear when you go to the Pure White Core. You can wear them like this first, and I will take you to buy better clothes later when you have time."

"Wow!" Huihui raised the coat high and put it on her body again: "It's so beautiful!" Seeing gray marks on the clean black coat rubbed by her clothes, she hurriedly threw her hands in distress, but her hands and sleeves were dirty, and the more she Instead, he smeared more dirt on it, so anxious that he just wanted to cry.

"You can change after you take a shower," I said.

"Bathing?" Huihui doesn't take a bath twice a year.

"...Just wash your face and hands and wear it directly." What else can I say?

Huihui washed her hands in a washbasin poured with warm water, and when she pinched the soap, black marks were left on the soap.

After washing his hands, the water in the basin has turned gray.

I didn't help her change the water. She added some hot water and washed her face. After getting her hair wet, she simply washed it off too. The water really turned gray-black.

Put on warm water and wash it again. This time, it was much better. I even scrubbed her neck and arms because it was really unsightly. With all due respect, she doesn't look like a girl no matter where she looks.

When taking off her shoes, she was so suffocated by her torn socks and smelly feet, she threw away the shoes and socks and washed her feet twice before letting her change into a whole set of underwear, shoes and socks.

Huihui is slightly taller than me, and she fits her sportswear better than me. Huihui couldn't put it down because of her beautiful soccer shoes with metal studs.

It's almost time for school, and the two of us started to pack our things.

"I should have bought two schoolbags." Carrying the tattered schoolbag, I regretted it.

"Yes, I still need a schoolbag." After wearing new clothes, Huihui didn't want to carry her dirty schoolbag on her back, for fear of rubbing the dirty clothes.

"I can put my schoolbag in the ring." Huihui said.

"It's better not to, the school is inconvenient to take it out, just carry it in your hand."

"Oh." Huihui was sullen.

"We're going to school!" Huihui yelled at her house.

"Slow down on the road!" The one-legged old man who didn't know that his granddaughter had changed his shotgun also yelled in a hoarse voice.

I could feel that everyone's eyes were involuntarily focused on me and Huihui along the way. I was a little more natural, but Huihui was much more timid. She drooped her shoulders and walked in a hurry, as if fleas had gotten into her clothes. Feeling uncomfortable all over, when others saw her, she lowered her head to the ground with guilt.

If you ignore Huihui's thatch-like withered yellow braids on her head, we should look like twin brothers from the back.

When we entered the classroom, Huihui and I received unprecedented attention once again. Some people's eyes turned into copper bells, and some people's mouths opened into hippopotamuses.

The sound of metal spikes stepping on the brick floor quickly attracted them. When they looked down and saw the clean, bright and beautiful football shoes on the feet of Huihui and me, many young boys immediately blushed and their hearts beat. Look, I still want to touch it with my hands.

"Is there a real nail underneath?" Although he could see the metallic color from the side, Niu Laxiang still didn't dare to confirm it.

"Yeah." I raised my foot to show him, and Niu Laxiang and the male students around were all in awe.

"Wow! It's true! There are iron nails, so handsome!" Niu Laxiang's handsome uncle in the Public Security Bureau loves him very much, but he will not buy him 200 yuan a pair of football shoes.

"Yu...Yu Shaorong, did your mother buy it for you?" Liu Hanghang, who owns a pharmacy at home, leaned over enviously: "Why is Fang Huihui wearing the same one? Did you buy it from a style store? I've seen your shirt before." Woolen cloth."

I was already sitting in my seat, and there were people squatting beside me to study my sneakers, and some people boldly pulled up their trouser legs, and immediately saw the long football socks inside, and there was another burst of chattering.

Huihui's head was almost retracted into her arms, she had never been so noticed before, she would not answer when others spoke to her, she wished she could dig a hole and bury herself.

Not only did the male students warm up to me, but a girl even came to talk to me after the first class. Although the content was not nutritious, I should be flattered, because this was the first time.

Very good and powerful, the new battle armor defeated the classmates in the class, and also shocked the teacher. The second class in the afternoon was a nature class. The teacher's eyes frequently landed on the area where Huihui and I were. Picked two relatively simple questions for me to answer, and tolerantly gave me encouragement and appreciation after I answered the wrong question.

"You...you are Yu Shaorong?" During extracurricular activities, the red scarf who came to look for me stood far away, not sure.

"Well, it's me." I nodded.

Originally, I was going to continue to sit on the steps as usual, but Huihui said that there was a lot of soil on the steps, and I would sit on dirty new pants, so I specially moved two stools from the classroom to sit on. Now I am sitting outside the classroom under the warm sunset Playing with her fingers, Huihui was fiddling with the smooth zipper on her coat.

"Gao Xiao...Lin...brother..." Huihui's voice was shy and embarrassing, and the word 'brother' at the end was so soft that she probably couldn't hear it clearly.

"Yu Shaorong, your new clothes are so handsome!" The red scarf with thick eyebrows and big eyes smiled very happily, and came over to fiddle with my clothes with a grin. I didn't mind, so I just sat upright and let him watch.

"It's so good," he blushed, he couldn't help taking off his gloves and touching my hair, and when he touched my eyes, he smiled like a crescent moon: "It's so beautiful... so good!"
