Han Qingsong took a look and raised his eyebrows, piqued by the claim that the items didn’t require tickets.

Cowhide leather shoes were more expensive than pig leather shoes. White socks and leather shoes were a perfect match in this era. She would definitely look good in them, but as it was quite pricey, she’d be unhappy if he bought it for her.

Though, he could purchase it during the end of the year.

However, the women’s underwear didn’t seem to be that expensive.

Han Qingsong didn’t touch it and merely looked. The pale blue undergarment for women seemed to be a bit shorter than that for men as he guessed that it probably wouldn’t be long enough to cover the belly button. The upper strap seemed to be quite thick and there were four buttons in the middle to fasten it.

He just didn’t know if this was facing forwards or backwards.

He asked, “Are there sizes for this?”

Men’s vests come in big and small sizes as someone of his stature would require a larger size.

Qiu Dongmei smiled and said, “Director Han buys these frequently, I see; you even know about the sizes,” She picked up a vest, fiddled with it and pointed to both sides to explain to him, “Look, these need to be sorted by sizes.”

Han Qingsong remembered that Lin Lan’s mounds were soft and full, so she probably needed larger sizes.

“Large,” he said.

Qiu Dongmei saw that the tips of his ears were red, but her heart was beating so fast that she was practically about to put the undergarment itself on her chest and gesture to him.

When Wang Huijuan saw it, she immediately came over and took the vest, “Get a large size for Director Han.”

Qiu Dongmei woke up from her trance and hurriedly took a large sized piece. She threw it on the counter, her cheeks hot.

Han Qingsong didn’t pay attention to her as he bought two pieces at once— one pale blue and one pale pink. After packing them up, he went ahead on his way.

As soon as he left, Wang Huijuan pushed Qiu Dongmei, “Did you drink some sort of ecstasy soup before this? Why did you do that?”

Qiu Dongmei bit her lip and murmured, “How was I to know that he would be that shameless?”

At this time, young men and women who were not in a relationship would undoubtedly turn embarrassed when approaching topics like this. It was especially true for soldiers, who didn’t have many chances to talk to women, so they would usually stammer or be unable to react. Who would have thought that not only was he unashamed, but he even had the courage to buy underwear for his wife.

Did he look at mine before saying that he needed a large size?

Was he interested in me?

Wang Huijuan poked her finger, “Him being shameless? I think you were the one who was shameless. If the President finds out about this, you won’t be let off that easily.”

Qiu Dongmei quickly pulled onto her, “Sister Huijuan, don’t speak nonsense. I-I’m not doing a-anything at all.”

Even so, she couldn’t help but head outside. Perhaps Han Qingsong was still out there, waiting for her?

After she stepped out, she was in fact, disappointed to find that there was no one.

Han Qingsong has already gone to the butchering team. This time, he reserved a pair of pig trotters and a pig tail. He also ordered half a catty of his meat that should be claimed in August and bought some bones.

Minister Zhao also sent him the claimable portions for July, granting him an extra meat ticket.

Lin Lan mentioned that since it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, paired with the fact that they officially moved into a new home today, it was more than reason to celebrate. He could buy more meat for them, and if there weren’t any, bones were fine as well.
