At the department store.
The department stores of this era were more complete than the large supermarkets of the future. Basically, all the goods sold in the market could be bought here.
Cao Feng walked into the department store and went straight to the bicycle shop.
After a while, he decided on the bicycle he wanted to buy. It was the Yongjiu 28 Big Bar bicycle.
"Comrade, give me a bicycle of this brand and style.”Cao Feng said to the salesperson who was standing at the counter and munching on melon seeds.
This era was a seller's market, and the seller was more powerful than the buyer.
When the salesperson heard Cao Feng's words, she wouldn't have paid him any attention if she hadn't seen him wearing a Chinese tunic suit and looking like a leader.
You're disturbing her eating melon seeds. Just you wait!
But even so, the salesperson still had an indifferent expression on her face as she asked Cao Feng in a bad mood,"Do you have tickets?"
"Yes!" As Cao Feng spoke, he took out the bicycle ticket that his second uncle had given him from his pocket and showed it to the salesperson.
The salesperson looked at Cao Feng's bicycle ticket and did not say anything else.
Instead, she continued to munch on her melon seeds until she finished them.
Then, he clapped his hands and said to Cao Feng,"Come here and settle the car purchase procedures.”
"Oh, okay."
Cao Feng wasn't angry at the salesperson's attitude.
This was how it was in this era. In the Dongzhimen Grain and Oil Station where he worked, the attitude of the grain salespeople was almost the same as that of the salespeople who were talking to him now.
He was already used to this kind of attitude.
He was too lazy to care.
However, he did not know if the salesperson was a resident of Dongzhimen Street Office.
If so, he would definitely let the salesperson know what it meant to give her a taste of her own medicine.
Take the tickets and pay.
The permanent 28-bar bicycle was priced at 215 yuan.
An hour later, Cao Feng pushed his bicycle out of the department store.
After leaving the department store, Cao Feng hurried to the nearby police station to stamp his newly bought bicycle.
When Cao Feng finished all the procedures, it was already noon.
He was a little hungry, so he rode his bicycle to find a restaurant for lunch.
Just as he was searching and passing by an intersection, he heard a strange woman's voice say,"Hey, isn't this Cao Feng, Deputy Commander Cao? Why do you have the time to stroll around Zhengyangmen Street today?”
Listen to the sound to distinguish the position.
Cao Feng turned around and saw Chen Xueru in a cheongsam standing not far away, looking at him with a righteous look.
Looking at Chen Xueru's expression, Cao Feng instantly remembered the night before yesterday. He and Chen Xueru had a drink at the tavern in front of the door. When he put his arm around Chen Xueru's shoulder and sent her home, he promised Chen Xueru that he would continue drinking with her the next night.
"Manager Chen, what a coincidence!" Cao Feng got out of the car and greeted Chen Xueru.
He had stood her up and now he was caught red-handed. How could he be embarrassed?
He couldn't blame her for saying those strange words to him.
"Cao Feng, what did you call me?"
"You actually called me Manager Chen? When you sent me home two nights ago, you called me baby. Now you…"
Cao Feng panicked when he heard Chen Xueru's words.
This was the main street!
If someone heard this, he and Chen Xueru would not be able to get away with it.
He couldn't bear the crime of fooling around with men and women.
Cao Feng hurried to Chen Xueru's side and explained in a voice that only the two of them could hear,""My good sister, don't be angry! Wasn't this the main street? Do you think it's appropriate for me to call you baby instead of Manager Chen?”
"If you want me to scream, I'll scream for you now.”
Cao Feng looked at Chen Xueru.
He was to blame for this.
When he went to Xueru's satin shop to customize clothes, he saw Chen Xueru, who had just divorced Hou Jie (her first husband).
Moreover, when he was drinking with Chen Xueru in the tavern, he even used the same method he used to woo Chen Xueru before he transmigrated.
Chen Xueru was getting angry at him because of his nickname. He knew that he was not far from taking Chen Xueru down.
However, with Chen Xueru's current reaction, he did not dare to provoke her again.
Nothing had happened between him and Chen Xueru yet, and Chen Xueru dared to make a scene with him on the street.
When he really started, he would have to marry Chen Xueru.
Chen Xueru was a divorced woman. How could a young man like him marry Chen Xueru?
(Note: In order to allow the characters of "Siheyuan" and "Little Woman" to interact perfectly, the plot time of "Little Woman" was deliberately delayed by 10 years.）
Chen Xueru finally realized the problem after hearing Cao Feng's explanation.
She looked around and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that no one was paying attention to her and Cao Feng.
She had a good impression of Cao Feng and liked him a little. She wanted to be with Cao Feng.
However, she had just divorced her dead husband not long ago. If news of her affair with Cao Feng spread at this time, her reputation would definitely be damaged.
However, although she was wrong just now, it was impossible for her to apologize to Cao Feng.
Therefore, she immediately changed the topic."Speak! The night before yesterday, when you sent me home, you promised to drink with me at the tavern the next day. Why didn't you come?”
"Didn't I have something to do and can't leave?”
"What's keeping you here? She would rather stand me up than accompany me.”
"Two days ago, a chicken thief appeared in our courtyard. The three elders in the courtyard held a meeting at night, so I couldn't leave.”
"It was already very late when the assembly ended, and Dongzhimen, where I lived, was so far away from Daqian Gate, so I didn't come to drink with you.”
"Really?" Chen Xueru looked at Cao Feng doubtfully.
In fact, she only wanted Cao Feng to have an attitude.
For the past two days, she did not miss Cao Feng. If not for her misgivings, she would have gone to Cao Feng's workplace to look for him.
As for whether Cao Feng had lied to her? She did not care at all.
"Why would I lie to you?" Cao Feng patted the bicycle he just bought and said to Chen Xueru,"You see, in order to make it convenient for me to drink with you in the big front door tavern in the future, I specially went to the department store to buy this bicycle today.”
"It really is!" Chen Xueru looked at the new bicycle that Cao Feng was pushing and felt relieved.
He directly went forward and hugged Cao Feng's arm with both hands, saying,"It's noon now. Have you had lunch? Let's go to her sister's house for lunch and have a few drinks with her.”
"Sister Xueru, don't be like this.”Cao Feng quickly pulled his arm away from Chen Xueru's hands and said,"Also, I can go to your house to have lunch with you, but I don't drink. I have to go back to work at the station later.”
"Alright, alright, alright. I'll do as you say."
