Chapter 27: Let’S Go Shopping
The library is a long time ago, and some of the cement on the outer wall has peeled off, revealing mottled red bricks, and some dark green and crimson creepers.
The library has a total of four floors, the first floor is the reading room, and the upper three floors are all kinds of books.
Since the three of them came to study, they went directly to the reading room on the first floor. Because it was a weekend and there were many people in the reading room, the three of them managed to find a place where they could sit.
Seeing Xu Ziran sitting down first, Tian Jiaqi quickly sat beside Xu Ziran, Qiu Yurou was stunned, and had to sit opposite.
The table is about half a meter wide. After Qiu Yurou sat down, she always felt that when she lowered her head, she could touch the same lowered head of Xu Ziran on the other side.
Xu Ziran sometimes noticed it, so he raised his head and smiled at Qiu Yurou.
When he laughed, his eyes were slightly curved, and a segment of sunlight stopped on his eyelashes.
Qiu Yurou began to not understand what topics she was working on, she was full of thoughts, Xu Ziran was so beautiful, no wonder others wanted to be friends with her.
So now, are the two of them friends?
Qiu Yurou wasn’t sure, since she was a child, she has always been the one to be hated because of certain things, and now she is beginning to be confused as to what it is like not to be hated.
But at least one thing she can be sure of is that she hopes to continue getting along with Xu Ziran.
People in the library came and went, and when they looked up again, it was three o’clock in the afternoon.
Xu Ziran didn’t realize that so long had passed, but when she got stuck on a question, Tian Jiaqi suddenly bumped her arm with her elbow, and handed over a scrap paper and said softly, “Guess this is what.”
Xu Ziran thought Tian Jiaqi was thinking about the question, but just as she was about to say that she didn’t necessarily know, she saw a cartoon head drawn on the scratch paper, with short hair, big eyes, and a long neck.
Xu Ziran replied, “You yourself?”
Tian Jiaqi said, “Of course not, I drew you.”
Xu Ziran: “…”
Next, Tian Jiaqi drew another dog, a cat, and Qiu Yurou to ask her what she drew. The fourth time she heard a rustling sound, Xu Ziran finally realized that Tian Jiaqi was probably annoying.
She had finished her homework on weekends, and she didn’t want to continue doing questions and reading books, so she kept trying to attract Xu Ziran’s attention. She definitely didn’t mean to disturb Xu Ziran, but she couldn’t sit still.
She sighed and was about to speak, when Yu Guang suddenly saw that Qiu Yurou was not doing the quiz, but stared at Tian Jiaqi’s scratch paper.
Xu Ziran looked at the exercise book in Qiu Yurou’s hand, and found that the other party had only done five questions for so long.
So it seems that Qiu Yurou’s efficiency today is also quite unsatisfactory.
Now that he has lost his interest in studying, he might as well just relax. Xu Ziran closed the book and suggested to go out for a walk.
Tian Jiaqi’s face suddenly lit up, vividly expressing the meaning of “I’ve been waiting for your words for a long time”.
A thousand meters away from the library, there is a commercial pedestrian street. In Xu Ziran’s impression, this street is selling some little girls’ items. I came to see it today, but I found that there are actually many brand-name stores and electrical appliances stores here. Restaurants and the like, but probably because they couldn’t afford others and were not interested in others, so they were all selectively ignored.
Man, you can only see what you want to see.
Xu Ziran is not very interested in shopping. Tian Jiaqi likes to go shopping in the past, but now he is even less interested. Originally, he wanted to buy clothes. When he entered two clothing stores, he was scared off by the terrible aesthetics inside. Finally, he thought about the situation of the wardrobe at home. , or decided to buy a versatile t-shirt, so I went to a certain store, chose the most plain white t-shirt, and asked the owner: “How to sell this one.”
The owner was sitting at the counter nibbling on melon seeds, looked up and saw three pretty little girls, all of whom looked very plain, and said, “Eighty, you don’t look at the style, but you can tell by touching the material that it’s worth it. ”
In fact, she really likes to do business with little girls, because although the little girls have no money, they are thin-skinned and embarrassed to bargain.
Unexpectedly, this time she met a strange flower.
Xu Ziran didn’t even raise his eyebrows, and said, “Is it for sale at twenty.”
Shopkeeper: “…”
Even Tian Jiaqi and Qiu Yurou felt that her bargaining went too far, and cast a surprised look at her.
But Xu Ziran was not aimless, she touched the clothes, at most thirty, out of the general rule of haggling, shouted lower first, leaving a little space for each other to step back.
Seeing that the shop owner didn’t speak, she said, “I sincerely want to buy it. This dress is worth the price. I still understand.”
The shop owner knew that he had met someone who knew how to do it, so he said helplessly: “Twenty is too low, forty.”
“twenty five.”
“…”
After a tug-of-war between the two, the last 30 transactions were exactly Xu Ziran’s psychological price.
When Xu Ziran bought the clothes, he was not very happy, but a little melancholy.
If it weren’t for the fact that there were only fifty on hand, why would he cut so hard?
Xu Ziran thought the price difference was ordinary, but Tian Jiaqi and Qiu Yurou seemed to be surprised by her, and then they went shopping and asked her for tips on bargaining.
Xu Ziran doesn’t have any tips for bargaining. When she has no money, she buys less clothes. When she has money, she doesn’t buy clothes that can be bargained. Tian Jiaqi taught her to bargain at the beginning.
When she first went to college and had extra money, Tian Jiaqi would often come to Xu Ziran’s school to find her, and the two of them ate the whole university street and visited one wholesale market after another.
At that time, they didn’t even know how to bargain, so they asked the price of clothes from store to store, but they didn’t buy them. laughing out loud.
Thinking about it carefully, it should be that I have been shopping a lot, and I have a rough estimate of all the clothes of different materials and different methods in my heart. In addition, I have made clothes later, so before I know it, I already know that a piece of clothes can really start. what is the price.
This is not a trick that can be taught in one sentence or two, and Xu Ziran still didn’t say it in the end.
When she thought about the future, she couldn’t help but feel lost again. When she saw Tian Jiaqi and Qiu Yurou who had turned into an accessories store, she felt as if she had seen her former self.
I used to think doing these things was fun and interesting, but now I’m starting to get tired.
Sure enough, after a certain age, if you do the same things again, you won’t have the same happiness. This is probably what the ancients said – if you want to buy sweet-scented osmanthus with wine, it’s not the same, just play as a teenager.
… Of course, the reason for the fatigue may also be that these accessories are too ugly, and the heart is tired. It turns out that the aesthetics is ahead of the public. , cast a scrutiny on these ornaments.
Probably because when Tian Jiaqi wanted Xu Ziran to show what she liked, Xu Ziran always showed a mysterious and heavy look. She quickly stopped asking Xu Ziran and asked Qiu Yurou instead, so unknowingly, Xu Ziran was left hanging. Away, Tian Jiaqi and Qiu Yu were as soft as glue.
Xu Ziran didn’t care, so he looked at the system panel or some small objects, but when he looked up by chance, he saw Tian Jiaqi and Qiu Yurou looking at him, as if they were talking about something, and they laughed together.
—Ah, girl.
When Tian Jiaqi went to pay, Xu Ziran asked Qiu Yurou softly, “What did you and Jiaqi say to me just now?”
Qiu Yurou shook her head mysteriously, the corners of her mouth curved slightly, and her smile was intriguing.
Xu Ziran then thought: Qiu Yurou hasn’t changed in this point. Whatever she doesn’t say, no matter how she asks, she will never say it.
Probably because she was embarrassed for not answering Xu Ziran’s question, Qiu Yurou changed the subject herself, put the newly bought headband on her head, and asked her with a blushing face if she looked good.
Xu Ziran was speechless. The blue hard nylon bow was also inlaid with purple artificial crystals. This style really made people not even complain.
So Xu Ziran had to say: “It’s hard to say a word.”
But when she saw that Qiu Yurou was disappointed because of her evaluation, she hurriedly added: “I mean, although you can’t see it when you put it on the shelf, it still looks good when you wear it.”
Qiu Yurou became happy again, and she didn’t even doubt that this was a polite remark.
Compared with Qiu Yurou, Tian Jiaqi complained when Xu Ziran said such a thing: “Come on, don’t you mean it’s actually ugly.”
At this time, they had already bid farewell to Qiu Yurou and were on their way home.
As the sun sets, the cement road is dyed a beautiful and gentle orange-red, bringing some warmth to the way home.
Tian Jiaqi said with a smile, “Although I’m still angry that Qiu Yurou has attracted too much of your attention, she’s still a good person.”
Xu Ziran smiled and said, “Didn’t you both talk to yourself later?”
Tian Jiaqi glanced at her arrogantly and said, “Why, you’re jealous.”
Xu Ziran followed the conversation: “Yeah, I’m jealous, so can you tell me what you said?”
Tian Jiaqi paused for a while before saying, “Actually, I’m talking, I think you’ve changed a lot.”
Xu Ziran’s expression was complicated. Of course, she thought that Tian Jiaqi would find her change, but she didn’t imagine how she would react to it.
But now, she saw Tian Jiaqi, who was a little tangled, frowning and said, “I always feel that you seem to have changed.”
Xu Ziran paused in footsteps, and said calmly, “Oh?”
