Chapter 104: Getting burned
“Go, go, I’m here early and I’ve already bought half a catty of meat!”
You need meat coupons to buy meat. You can buy half a catty of meat. For ordinary families in the city, it is a very happy thing to be able to buy it once a week.
The reason?
In addition to the monthly fixed quota issued by the unit, it is not easy to get a few more meat tickets.
Jiang Li smiled and looked away from the sister-in-law who was talking to her, and walked to the back of the queue to buy meat.
Fortunately, the salespersons at each window were fast enough. It took about forty minutes to buy all the vegetables, fresh pork, chicken legs, and a frozen hairtail I wanted to buy today.
If this were placed in modern times, if you walked into the supermarket to purchase, you would have to buy a lot of things in about forty minutes. However, in this era, you can buy all the ingredients in Jiang Li’s vegetable basket at the vegetable supply point, and it takes about forty minutes to buy all the ingredients. Not a long time.
Ignoring the stunning glances that fell on him, Jiang Li walked back to the courtyard carrying the vegetable basket.
She was wearing a simple, slightly loose braid today just like yesterday. She was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and a black knee-length A-line skirt. The short-sleeved shirt and skirt were made of fine and soft texture, and the hem was tied inside the skirt. Slender, walking like a weak willow supporting the wind.
Well, Jiang Li's body is really delicate. Not to mention other things, just from her often pale face, it is not difficult to tell that she is born with a weak body, and she is also thin. Although she is not skinny, she is really thin.
However, there is no ambiguity at all about where flesh should grow.
Knowing that she was in poor health, even though she had taken Dali Pills, which gave her immense strength, her physique had not changed at all. However, Jiang Li did not want to make herself look too delicate, so she used her unique aura to spread out from her bones as much as possible. The delicate feeling on her body was covered up to avoid being called "Sick Yangzi" behind her back.
Of course, from her daily expression, and from the front, you can’t really see much of her fragility, but the back view still gives people the feeling of being very fragile.
Unknown to Jiang Li, someone in the compound had already used the nickname "Sick Yangzi" for her.
“Why do you think Professor Luo found a sick man to come in?”
"Professor Luo didn't find that person himself, it was Song..." The speaker whispered in the ear of the woman next to him: "Director Song found him, do you understand? I heard from Deputy Director Wei's family. What Comrade Wang said cannot be false.”
"What does Director Song mean? Since we are looking for a partner for Professor Luo on behalf of the organization, why do we have to find a sick man?"
“Who knows.”
"I guess Director Song has good intentions. Think about it, Professor Luo already has two sons and one daughter, and now a sick child comes in, which means it is difficult for her to get pregnant. In this case, she is afraid that she will treat the three of them The child is not good?"
As soon as the woman who said this finished her sentence, several women standing beside her coughed slightly in embarrassment, and then looked at Suman intentionally or unintentionally.
Yes, it was Suman they were looking at, and Suman was standing with a few people. She came back from shopping for groceries and met these women from the same compound. Because everyone looked familiar, after entering the compound, she reluctantly They kept getting together to chat, but unexpectedly they happened to bump into Jiang Li coming in from the courtyard door carrying a vegetable basket.
So, when Suman "inadvertently" brought up the topic around Jiang Li, the women began to make irresponsible remarks about Jiang Li.
But Suman never expected that the fire would burn herself.
Especially one of the women has a very good relationship with her and knows that she is pregnant with a child. What will that woman think of her at this time?
Will she spread the word about her pregnancy, causing rumors to slander her in this courtyard?
There are still updates. . .
