94 Chapter 94: Exchanging Buns
Ever since this woman came, the food and quality of life at home had indeed improved a lot.
However, he never saw her taking care of their clothes.
It had been a long time since the family had bought new clothes. Also, she bathed every day, so her clothes were worn out quickly. Some parts of her clothes were torn, but she didn’t even notice it.
His mother would occasionally help her patch up her clothes, but sometimes she missed out on certain parts.
In addition, she had lost a lot of weight in the past month.
The clothes she was wearing now were a little loose, but she didn’t seem to care at all.
Forget it. He had to buy clothes for his family anyway, so he would count this woman in.
“May I know the size?” The shopkeeper quickly asked.
The whole family was buying clothes together, so the profit from this business deal would not be low.
Song Que frowned slightly.
“I didn’t measure the size in advance. I can only tell you their approximate body length and body shape. Can you help me calculate?” he asked.
“Sure. However, there might be some discrepancies in the calculations.”
Song Que smiled and said, “It’s fine.”
Then, he told the shopkeeper about the height and shape of everyone in the family, except for Qin Xiaoyao.
After informing him, Song Que turned to look at Qin Xiaoyao.
Qin Xiaoyao’s face turned red again.
Then, Song Que said to Qin Xiaoyao, “Ahem! You can tell the shopkeeper yourself.”
Qin Xiaoyao was stunned.
Only then did she realize that her attractive husband also wanted to buy her cloth.
Her already restless heart instantly went into a state of turmoil again.
The shopkeeper looked at Qin Xiaoyao with a smile.
“This lady’s measurements can be taken on the spot. I have a measuring tape here,” he said.
When he saw Qin Xiaoyao’s clothes, he knew that this woman probably hadn’t bought new clothes for a long time.
In addition, the clothes she was wearing now were a little loose, so her previous clothes size was definitely not accurate.
“Oh, okay.” Qin Xiaoyao quickly agreed.
She was busy earning money at home and was busy every day, so she was not very particular about what she wore.
Since her attractive husband wanted to buy her cloth, she naturally had to accept it.
However, Song Que turned to look at Qin Xiaoyao and frowned.
He saw the shopkeeper bring a measuring tape. Then, he reached out his hand to him.
“Shopkeeper, you can guide me from the side. I’ll take her measurements,” he said immediately.
The shopkeeper was caught by surprise.
His gaze swept over the two of them, and then, a faint smile of understanding appeared on his face.
He passed the measuring tape in his hand to Song Que.
He had been guessing the relationship between the two. As their appearances were incompatible, he didn’t dare to guess even though he saw their intimate behavior.
Now it seemed that these two people were really husband and wife.
Sigh! It was such a pity for such a handsome husband to marry such a wife.
Qin Xiaoyao didn’t notice the shopkeeper’s thoughts. At this moment, her body was almost frozen.
This was because her attractive husband was using a measuring tape to take her size.
His hand was pressing on her body, and because they were standing so close, she could even feel her attractive husband’s breathing.
She could only feel that her face was about to burn.
“I can’t stand it, I can’t stand it…” she thought.
Fortunately, the sweet torture finally ended after a short while.
Song Que returned the measuring tape to the shopkeeper.
Then, he turned his head and glanced at Qin Xiaoyao.
When he saw the woman’s flushed face, he was surprisingly in a good mood.
The shopkeeper took back his measuring tape and ignored those two. He took a brush and began to calculate.
After calculating the rough amount of the fabric, he informed Song Que.
Song Que asked for the price and was ready to accept.
At this moment, Qin Xiaoyao suddenly came to a realization. She hurriedly went forward and began to bargain with the shopkeeper.
After haggling for a while, she finally relented and allowed the cloth to be cut.
Seeing the shopkeeper’s helpless expression and Qin Xiaoyao’s delighted expression, Song Que’s heart trembled slightly.
After a while, the shopkeeper finished cutting the cloth.
Qin Xiaoyao took out her money bag and paid the bill. Then, she took the cloth and helped Song Que out of the fabric shop.
After that, she pushed the handcart and continued to move forward.
...
Suddenly, Song Que said, “Let’s go to the grocery store and buy a pair of shoes for everyone in the family.”
Qin Xiaoyao was stunned.
When she recalled that everyone in the family was wearing straw sandals, she felt that her husband was very thoughtful and quickly agreed.
Thus, she pushed Song Que toward the grocery store she was familiar with.
All of a sudden, Qin Xiaoyao’s stomach started rumbling, and it even rumbled a few times in a row.
It was only then that she realized she was hungry.
Qin Xiaoyao was a little embarrassed when her eyes met Song Que’s gaze.
She then said quickly, “I almost forgot. I bought some buns at the market on South Street!”.
“Hubby, if you’re hungry, you can have some first to fill your stomach.”
“It’s in the second basket beside you. You can just take the bag on the left!”
Song Que finally looked away from Qin Xiaoyao.
...
Then, he reached out to get the buns.
Following Qin Xiaoyao’s instructions, he took the bag on the left.
After opening up the oilpaper, he took out a bun to eat.
When he discovered that it was actually filled with meat, his eyes were filled with joy.
Seeing this, Qin Xiaoyao swallowed her saliva as a smile appeared on her face.
However, she immediately saw Song Que raise his head to look at her.
Her face froze.
Then, she heard Song Que say, “Stop and rest for a while.”
Almost immediately, Qin Xiaoyao automatically carried out the order and put down the handcart.
Song Que continued, “It’s not completely cold yet. Come over and have one.”
Qin Xiaoyao’s heart stirred, and she chose to listen to him again.
However, when Song Que handed her the large bag of buns wrapped in oilpaper, she quickly came to her senses and turned him down.
Then, she went to the basket and took out another bag of buns with a smile.
“I’ll just eat this,” she said with a smile.
Following that, she ignored Song Que’s slightly displeased expression and opened the oilpaper bag, taking out a bun to eat.
Song Que, who was still a little angry, was stunned when he saw that the bun Qin Xiaoyao had bitten contained a vegetarian filling.
Then, his anger finally vanished. Instead, he gave Qin Xiaoyao a strange look.
After that, when Qin Xiaoyao was about to eat the second vegetarian bun, Song Que stopped her in time.
“Eat this bun,” he said.
Qin Xiaoyao was surprised.
“I said, eat this bun!” Song Que said again, raising his voice.
Qin Xiaoyao was a little hesitant.
Only when she saw Song Que frowning did she reach out her hand.
Then Song Que added, “Give me your bag!”
Qin Xiaoyao looked at the vegetarian buns in her hands and hesitated for a moment. In the end, she still handed the bag of vegetarian buns to Song Que.
Song Que took it, and without looking at Qin Xiaoyao again, he took out a vegetarian bun and continued eating.
Qin Xiaoyao was very moved.
Just as she was feeling touched, she heard Song Que say, “Why are you staring into space? Hurry up and eat. We still have to go to the grocery store to buy shoes after eating!”
“Okay,” Qin Xiaoyao replied dumbly before taking out the meat bun to eat.
After eating two more buns, Qin Xiaoyao’s stomach felt better. She then wrapped the oilpaper back and placed them back into the basket.
Song Que glanced at Qin Xiaoyao, then allowed her to continue on their journey.
Following that, the two of them went to the grocery store and bought five pairs of shoes.
Qin Xiaoyao had made straw sandals for everyone in the family before, so she remembered their sizes very clearly. It wasn’t too troublesome to choose their shoes.
