80s Returning Doctor

There is a big department store not far from He Jing’s house. Next door to the department store is the Overseas Chinese Remittance Store. At this time, most things still need coupons. He Jing does not have a ticket, but he has Overseas Chinese Remittance Coupons.

They walked there. Fortunately, there were many buildings on the side of the road. They walked in a shaded place, and it wasn't very hot.It didn't take long for them to arrive at the place. There were not many people in the department store, and it was not time to get off work.

Mother He took He Jing to the place where the pork was sold first. The weather was so hot that the place where the meat was sold smelled very bad, and there was not much meat left on the stall.Mother He frowned and looked at it. It was all lean meat, and there was almost no place with a lot of oil and water.

"Comrade, is there any fat left?"

The pig butcher glanced at them casually, "It's gone, that's all that's left."

Mother He was very dissatisfied, and said critically: "There is no fat at all, it's all skinny!"

"If you want to buy fat meat, come early tomorrow. You are lucky to have meat at this time!" In the service industry of this era, there is no such thing as the idea that customers are gods, and the man speaks very rudely.

He Jing hurriedly said to He Mu: "Mom, just buy lean meat. I don't like to eat fatty meat now." It was also in this era, because people generally have little oil and water, so everyone is very eager for fat meat.In later generations, almost every household has meat on the table, and not many people like to eat fatty meat, which is unhealthy and greasy.

"Okay, comrade, cut me two catties of meat, and give me a bone..." It's not that I don't want to buy more, but it's too hot to let it go.

The man's hands and feet were quick, and he cut the meat for He Mu very quickly. He Jing didn't rush to give the money. First, he didn't have a meat ticket, and even He Mu would never let him give the money.

Afterwards, Mother He brought He Jing to buy a lot of vegetables. If the fish and the like were not sold out by now, Mother He wished to buy them all by sea, land and air, but there were not many.Not only that, she also went to the snack counter to buy some snack biscuits, which she didn't dare to buy more before.

"Son, what do you think of this dress?" Mother He asked He Jing, pointing to a white men's shirt.

"It looks pretty good." The men's clothes don't have so many styles, and they all look similar at first glance.

"Hey, then let's buy one!" Mother He smiled satisfied, and reached out to take off the clothes.

"Hey, what are you doing? These clothes are very expensive, don't touch them!" Suddenly a sharp middle-aged female voice came, and Mother He's hand was pushed away.

He Jing's complexion changed a bit, this man was too arrogant.Mother He was very used to it, and she still smiled and said: "Big sister, let's buy clothes!"

The middle-aged woman looked at the two of them, and saw that He Jing seemed to be well-dressed, and he was not the kind of person who couldn't afford to be touched, so her attitude was better.

"Sister, I really didn't mean to hurt you just now. This dress is too expensive. It's made of real silk. It's 49 yuan a piece. It's easy to get snagged."

Mother He was shocked, "It's so expensive!" 49 yuan, which is almost two months' wages of ordinary workers, and it's just a shirt.

"That's not true. It's from Hong Kong Island. The style and quality are the best. Otherwise, you wouldn't have taken a fancy to it at a glance."

Mother He looked at He Jing hesitantly. He Jing really had no shortage of clothes, so she hurriedly said, "Mom, forget it, I have a lot of clothes, so I don't need to buy them."

"How many clothes do you have? I looked at them yesterday, and you only have a few sets in your suitcase."

"I still have a lot of things to send back, but it just takes a little time." The current domestic logistics is very slow, let alone international logistics, which requires crossing the ocean.

"Okay, it's rare for you to come back, buy it!" The last two words were said to the salesperson.

The salesperson was very happy that such expensive clothes could be sold, and he took them off immediately, "Okay, I'll wrap them up for the elder sister. The clothes are very good, comfortable to wear, and very breathable. , which is much better than that.”

"Okay, I just look at this dress." Although she was heartbroken that it cost so much money for a dress, she was also happy that her son was comfortable in it.

"Sister, your son looks really good-looking, he must work in a good unit?" It was rare to see such a good-looking young man, and the salesperson was really interested.Seeing He's mother spend so much money on a piece of clothing, she knew that the family's conditions must be very good. There is still a young girl in her family. Maybe this is the future in-laws!

These words reached Mother He's heart, and she left in no hurry, "Yeah, he's going to be a teacher at Q University soon!"

The big sister of the salesperson's eyes widened, "Oh my God! Big Q, it's really a good unit, big sister, you will really enjoy yourself in the future." She has already given up her previous thoughts, such an intellectual, her that A girl who graduated from junior high school is not good enough.

Mother He smiled so much that her eyes almost narrowed, her son really showed her face, she was happy, and she didn't feel that the money was spent too much, so she bought a lot of things with a wave of her hand, such as cloth, lunch boxes, Many of them were prepared for He Jing.By the time Mother He finished shopping, He Jing had already carried a lot of things in his hands.

"Hey, it's a bit too much, son, what else do you want to buy?"

"Mom, let's go to the next door and have a look?" He Jing almost walked around the department store. Now there are many electrical appliances, such as washing machines, refrigerators, and large fans. They just need industrial coupons. He Jing doesn't have them, so he just I want to go to the Qiaohui store next door.

Mother He stared wide-eyed, "What are you doing there? There are foreigners going there. I heard that things are very expensive and you need a remittance certificate. It's not the place for us to go."

"I have a lot of overseas remittance vouchers in my hand, so I have to go and use them quickly, or it will be bad if it expires." He Jing wanted to buy something for his family, so he brought all the overseas remittance vouchers with him.

"How many?"

"It's more than 1000. Let's go and have a look. The weather is so hot now. Let's go and see the electric fan."

"Okay, okay." Mother He reluctantly agreed. Although she didn't want her son to spend more money, she couldn't waste the overseas remittance coupons. They can be used as money. She also lived in foreign countries today, so go and have a look .

The Overseas Chinese Remittance Store looks much more luxurious than a department store, and there are much fewer people inside. There are even blonde foreigners there, and even the service staff are much more enthusiastic.

He Jing took He Mu directly to the place where he bought electrical appliances. The first thing he looked at was the washing machine. Although there were not many He family members, they also had a lot of clothes every day. The men in the family seldom do housework, so He Mu and Grandma He works very hard, and having a washing machine can relieve a lot of burden, especially in winter.

"He Jing, didn't you mean to look at the fan? Why did you come to this place?" Mother He was a little apprehensive when she came in. The floor was too bright, and she was not used to it.

He Jing smiled reassuringly at her, and strode over to a double-tub washing machine, "Mom, how about we buy a washing machine?" The washing machines of today are not as smart as those of later generations, or they are pure single-tub washing machines , or it is a double-cylinder with a dryer, and many of them need to add water by themselves.

"What kind of washing machine do you want? It's a waste of money. It's useless. It's not as clean as I can wash it myself." Naturally, there are people who use washing machines.

The salesperson who greeted her also heard what Mother He said. This is a young and beautiful girl, and she saw the watch on He Jing's wrist at a glance. They also have this kind of watch. It is a purely handmade mechanical watch imported from abroad, which costs thousands of yuan. , Naturally understand that this is a big customer, the attitude is extraordinarily enthusiastic, and the face is full of smiles.

"Auntie, you can't say that. The reason why your son wants to buy a washing machine is because he feels sorry for you. Think about it, it's okay in summer now, but it's so cold in winter that your hands will crack after washing clothes. Using a washing machine It’s different. Although it’s not as clean as washing by hand, it’s not as easy. Especially for those big sheets and quilts, it’s much more convenient to use the washing machine. This double-cylinder also has a drying function, and winter clothes dry quickly. That would save a lot of trouble!"

Someone helped to persuade He Jing, and he felt a lot more relaxed, "Yes, Mom, my grandma is getting old, not only you need to use it, but she also needs to use it. Besides, I will go to work soon, and I will earn a lot of money in the future. We can totally afford these things."

Mother He is still a little hesitant, if she wants to buy it for her alone, she will definitely not want it, just do the laundry, she is used to it, how tired it can be, but the son wants to respect his grandma, he is really It's hard to say anything.

"How much is this?"

"This kind of double cylinder, right? This kind is imported from country R, ​​and the quality is very good. It needs 300 overseas remittance coupons and [-] yuan."

Mother He was shocked by the price, "It's so expensive!" Her agitated heart just now disappeared, and it was almost a thousand.

"Ma'am, this price is really not expensive. This washing machine is of good quality and can be used for at least ten years. Think about how much time you can save by spending only 2 cents on this day. What can you do with so much time. And you don't touch it often in winter. With cold water, your hands won’t crack, and you can save a lot of medicine money, it’s definitely worth it.”

"And think about it, if such a big guy buys it back, the people around will know about it, and they won't all envy you for having a good son! It will be easier to find a wife in the future, right?"

The little girl's eloquence is really good, and she also understands the thoughts of people of He Mu's age very well. What she said almost went to He Mu's heart. She hesitated, and her determination not to buy had already been shaken.

He Jing: "Mom, let's just buy this one? I saw that the quality is not bad." One of the biggest advantages of this era is that there are fewer places to cut corners, and everything is very solid.
