Chapter 97 The History of Zhou Caiyun's Blood and Tears
The clothes sold at that stall were very fashionable. The bat shirts, bell-bottom pants and dresses were all very beautiful, and many young women rushed to try them on.
Just as Lin Mai was about to reach out and take a look at a bat shirt, the stall owner quickly stopped him: "High-end products, don't touch them if you don't want to buy them."
A piece of fiber clothing becomes a high-end product? This is a strange thing in this era.
If you don't want to touch it, don't touch it.
Lin Mai pointed to the bat shirt and asked, "How much does it cost?"
The stall owner looked her up and down several times and said lazily: "Eighteen yuan, can you afford it?"
Haha, I can afford it, but I can’t bear to part with it, it’s too expensive.
A shirt in the mall only costs six to eight yuan. The quality is pretty good, but the style is conservative and outdated.
Lin Mai only hesitated for a moment, and immediately a girl bought the bat shirt without hesitation for eighteen yuan.
Lin Mai was a little shocked. In this poor era, girls were not reluctant to buy beautiful clothes.
This black market was taken over by Chen Fenggang, and Forsythia accompanied him on his inspection tour.
As soon as he entered the black market, Chen Feng was grabbed by a second-rate dealer, who was talking about business in a low voice.
Forsythia stood beside him, looking around, on guard.
Last time Chen Feng was alone and was stabbed by his enemy, Forsythia has been blaming herself.
I always feel that he suffered a big loss because I was not by his side, so now I am inseparable from him.
Suddenly, her expression froze and she stared at Lin Mai, who was standing in front of the clothing stall not far away.
Chen Feng dismissed the second-rate dealer and was about to continue his inspection when Forsythia suddenly looked in pain and covered her stomach.
Chen Feng hurriedly supported her and asked: "What's wrong?"
Forsythia frowned and said, "My stomach hurts so much. It can't be appendicitis."
Chen Feng saw her trembling in pain as she spoke, and said, "It doesn't matter if it's appendicitis or not, just go to the hospital for a checkup and you'll know." After that, he helped her to the hospital.
The corners of Forsythia's lips evoked a smile that no one noticed, but it was fleeting.
Lin Mai stared at the clothing stall owner making a lot of money for a long time, and then went to buy ingredients.
I bought ingredients, bought cloth tickets from the ticket seller, and went to the mall to buy shirts and pants for her mother, daughter and Zhou Caiyun. Then I returned home with a full load and rode a tricycle back to the snack bar.
Zhou Caiyun not only built the wall in the backyard and installed the iron gate, but also kept the house clean.
Yesterday, when I was painting the walls, a lot of white wall powder dripped onto the windows and the floor. Now it's all been cleaned up, and the windows upstairs and downstairs look brighter and cleaner.
Zhou Caiyun washed her hands and helped to get the things.
Lin Mai gave her the shirt and pants he bought for her: "This is for you, see if you like it."
Zhou Caiyun said angrily: "It's not like I don't have any clothes to wear, so why buy them for me? Just buy them for you and Doudou."
He says this with his mouth, but his body is very honest.
He unpacked a piece of clothing, scratched it on his body, and said with a smile: "It looks so good!"
Lin Mai also smiled and said: "When we open a store and do business in the future, we must dress decently. They are too shabby and will be an eyesore to customers. Besides, I also bought new clothes for myself and Doudou."
Doudou and Ah Huang were playing happily upstairs when they heard Lin Mai's voice coming from downstairs, and they ran downstairs.
Doudou Nai asked in a sweet voice: "Mom, did you buy me something delicious?"
"Bought." Lin Mai took out a few pieces of lard candy from the basket and handed them to the little cute baby.
Seeing that the little cute baby was dirty, he asked with a smile: "Why are you so dirty? Did you roll on the road?"
Zhou Caiyun said angrily: "We Doudou are not that naughty. I was helped to build the wall and clean the house, and that's why I got so dirty."
Lin Mai rubbed Doudou's little head: "Our Doudou is really sensible."
Doudou, who received the praise, smiled happily, took the lard candy, and took Ah Huang out of the door.
Lin Mai didn't care either.
There are few vehicles in this era, so there is no danger for Doudou to play in front of the store.
Lin Mai brought the ingredients into the kitchen, and sent her mother and daughter's new clothes to the room before going out again.
To open a shop to sell steamed buns, she needed coal. She had to go to the railway depot to buy some coal.
This time she bought hundreds of kilograms of coal in one go.
As soon as she came back, Zhou Caiyun clapped her hands and said regretfully: "If you had come back earlier, you could have met Professor Fang."
Lin Mai was startled for a moment: "He didn't go home to sleep, so why did he come here again?"
Zhou Caiyun climbed onto the tricycle and used a shovel to pile coal into the corner of the yard: "He bought clothes for you and Doudou and delivered them."
Lin Mai was startled again: "Why did he think of buying clothes for us~"
Zhou Caiyun glanced at her: "You have to ask Professor Fang, ask me, I don't know the reason!"
She winked at Lin Mai mysteriously: "Is Professor Fang interested in you?"
Lin Mai thought about what he told his colleagues that he only regarded her as his sister, and shook his head like a rattle: "Don't make blind guesses. He is good to me only for the sake of Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang."
"Really?" Zhou Caiyun was a little disappointed and whispered, "Why do I think he is interested in you~"
Lin Mai said seriously: "It's impossible, don't make random guesses!"
The two worked in silence for a while, and Zhou Caiyun asked: "Maizi, aren't you going to find a father for Doudou?"
Fang Zhuoran's handsome face flashed through Lin Mai's mind involuntarily, and he said with a smile: "You should worry about yourself, don't you want to find another one?"
Zhou Caiyun looked a little sad: "It's not that I don't want to find her, but...but I don't have the ability to have children. Who...who would want it?"
She said to Lin Mai sincerely: "I am already like this. You must be happy. Don't miss out on meeting a good man."
Lin Mai knew who she was talking about and changed the subject: "Your in-laws think you are infertile.
Don't listen to their nonsense. Generally, if a couple does not have children, the man is more likely to be infertile.
You'd better go to the hospital for a checkup to confirm."
Although her education level is not high and she only has a junior high school education, she has been exposed to the Internet in her previous life and knows a lot.
Zhou Caiyun lowered his eyelids to cover up his sadness, and said in a low voice: "Why should I go for a check-up? That scumbag already has a child with someone outside, so there is no need to confirm..."
Lin Mai was stunned: "How did you know?"
Zhou Caiyun raised her head and smiled sadly at her: "Why do you think I was driven back to my parents' home?
It’s because the scumbag wants his wild woman and son from outside to live in, and I have to make room, so let me get out!”
Lin Mai was speechless.
She always thought that Zhou Caiyun was kicked out of her home by her husband's family because she failed to give birth to a child. She never expected that she would have such a period of blood and tears.
She comforted Zhou Caiyun and said: "If you are single, just be single. Don't you still have me to accompany you? We don't have to rely on men to live, and we can live well alone."
Zhou Caiyun nodded: "That's right!"
After stacking the coal, the two of them washed their hands. Zhou Caiyun boiled the bath water and asked Lin Mai to go upstairs to take a bath while she started making dinner.
Lin Mai bought pork ribs, and simmering the pork ribs soup was very time-consuming.
Lin Mai carried a bucket full of bath water in one hand and a bath basin in the other, went upstairs and entered the room.
I saw several unopened clothes on her big bed, some large and some small.
At first glance, it looked like Fang Zhuoran had bought it for Doudou.
She put down the bucket and bathtub, walked over, picked up the few small clothes, took them apart and looked at them.
A white puff-sleeved shirt paired with dark red overalls will definitely look good on you.
The weather in this month is the worst for dressing up. I can’t wear spring clothes because it’s too hot.
It will be a bit cold if you wear a skirt without stockings, so you can only wear a shirt and pants.
She picked up the clothes Fang Zhuoran bought for her and prepared to take them apart, but after thinking about it, she gave up the idea.
This dress is not suitable for her to accept. She should return it to Fang Zhuoran tomorrow, so don't take it apart.
