After hanging up, Xu Qing fell into deep thought.
Qin Hao was honest, but he was not stupid. He knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch.
The girl named Liu Jingfang whom he met in the afternoon was not very good-looking, but she was dressed like a city beauty. She was tall, had bright eyes, and wore light lipstick. When she stood next to Qin Hao, the dark, short, and strong man, others would think that Qin Hao must be rich.
Returning to the sofa, the two boxes of yogurt were empty. Jiang He stared at the computer, where several people were fighting fiercely on the bridge on horseback. There were all kinds of cars parked on the modernized bridge, and the three people from the Ming Dynasty shuttled back and forth with cold weapons, creating a strange sense of conflict. This was the climax of the movie.
"Do you know how to ride a horse?" Xu Qing asked casually.
"Yes, but I don't ride much. I only need it when I go far away."
"Hmm … I want to see it."
Xu Qing thought of something and chuckled. Then he looked at the empty yogurt box on the table. "Why is my box of yogurt gone?"
"I drank it."
"You gave it to me. I just made a phone call and put it away."
"…"
Jiang He felt guilty and did not say anything.
Eating too many melon seeds made her thirsty, and when she was thirsty, she wanted to drink water. Water was not as good as yogurt, so she drank one more box.
When she looked in the fridge, she found that it was the last two boxes, and she had not bought new ones.
After the movie, she would go out and buy a new one for him to drink. Anyway, it was gone now. She even licked the box clean and threw it into the trash can.
The movie was coming to an end, and Xu Qing did not disturb Jiang He. He sat on the sofa and touched her hand, thinking about Qin Hao.
Qin Hao was a guy who guarded his chastity like a jade. It was impossible for him to be seduced and then take over. However, there were pros and cons. If there was really something wrong with that Liu Jingfang, Qin Hao would be at a disadvantage. He had to be cautious about dating.
Sometimes Xu Qing felt that Qin Hao was born in the wrong era. If he had been born in the sixties or seventies, when he would blush and his heart beat faster just by touching his hand, he would definitely be very suitable. If a girl took a fancy to his hardworking and simple nature, he might even blush and ask loudly, "Are you a party member?"
Then he would have lived a happy life with a hard-working and simple girl.
Seeing that the movie was over, Xu Qing stopped his messy thoughts. He did not show the second sequel to Jiang He because the second one was too lousy.
"I will go out to buy groceries, and then buy a yogurt."
Jiang He stood up, but his hand was held tightly by Xu Qing and refused to let go. He could only sit back down and see what Xu Qing wanted to do.
"Stick your tongue out."
"Do what?" Jiang He was stunned.
"I want to see if my yogurt is still there." Xu Qing tried to deceive her with a very lame reason.
"I have drunk it."
Jiang He gestured to the empty box in the trash can, and there was nothing left in it. Seeing Xu Qing's indifferent look, she hesitantly spat out a small part of the tip of her tongue.
"It's really gone." Xu Qing exclaimed.
Jiang He stared at him and did not speak. She knew that it was not as simple as looking. She drank the yogurt that he was going to drink, so she must have some compensation. She had seen through this person's routine.
When two people were together, they always had to accommodate each other's thoughts. Although Jiang He was ignorant in this regard, she could slowly learn something after staying with Xu Qing for a long time.
Noticing that Xu Qing's pig trotters did not move, she did not hold Xu Qing down anymore. She dawdled on the sofa for a while, then got up shyly to clean up the table and put away the snacks she had eaten. Then she put on her shoes and urged Xu Qing to go out to buy groceries with her.
The vegetable market was not far from the community. This kind of old community was always very convenient. If it was not convenient, someone would make it convenient.
For example, buying groceries and clothes. At night, some people would drive a van to the side of the road and open the trunk to find a stall with all kinds of cheap shirts on it. It was almost summer, and it was the change of seasons. The business was not bad, and the buy two get one free activities were also popular with the residents.
If it was at the entrance of the new community in the city center, not many people would look at such cheap goods. The young man selling clothes had already tried it, and it was still better to sell in this relatively remote old community.
There was no need to go to the night market a few roads away. When she went out to buy groceries, she could buy good and cheap clothes. Cheng Yulan liked it very much. She carried the basket in front of the clothes stall to see if there were any clothes suitable for her and Old Wang. She bought them and wore them when the weather was hot.
"This one looks good. It looks fashionable."
Xu Qing pulled Jiang He to stop and look at it for a moment, giving advice to Cheng Yulan.
Cheng Yulan looked at it and felt that it was really good. She handed the basket to Xu Qing and held the clothes in front of her with both hands. "Does it look good?"
"Well, very good." Xu Qing said and looked down at the basket. There were not many vegetables in it. There were only two people in Cheng Yulan's house, she and Old Wang did not need to buy many vegetables.
Jiang He was very envious that Cheng Yulan had a basket to carry. She went around the supermarket but did not see the same basket.
"This dress suits you. Look how energetic it is!"
The young man selling clothes was very perceptive. He held up a mirror and showed it to Cheng Yulan, praising it again and again.
"Then this is it. Hahaha, you guys choose well. It's getting hotter and hotter, and the long sleeves can't be worn anymore."
"It's going to be summer soon, right?"
Xu Qing didn't have to go through so much trouble to buy clothes. After waiting for Cheng Yulan to bargain, he found two clothes that seemed to fit his eyes and asked the young man to wrap them up. There was no need to waste any more words. Naturally, the clothes were the same price as Cheng Yulan's — this should be the lowest price. Anyway, he admitted that he could not bargain better than Cheng Yulan.
He didn't buy Jiang He's short-sleeved shirt. Jiang He had already bought it on Taobao, and he also bought summer pajamas. He didn't buy a couple's short-sleeved shirt. It was okay to wear a couple's sweater inside. If he wore a couple's sweater all the time when he went out, he would always feel that it was too much.
"I'm a man, so I can wear anything. Moreover, I'm handsome, so I can also wear cheap clothes. You're different. You're a girl, so you'll look more beautiful if you wear better clothes. In this way, when we walk together, I'll look more elegant."
Xu Qing didn't have many requirements for clothes. In winter, he bought a good down jacket to keep him warm. In summer, he always bought shirts and T-shirts casually. The cheaper they were, the more he could change them. He didn't have to wear them repeatedly, and he didn't have to feel bad about it. It was different if he bought a good one. If he didn't want to wear it next year, he would have to think about the price and feel bad about it. It was quite self-torture.
"Why do you look more elegant if I wear beautiful clothes?" Jiang He couldn't understand this point.
"Because you're my girlfriend." Xu Qing looked at the distant sky and seemed to think of something. He chuckled and turned his head to her. "Actually, your clothes aren't very expensive. It's normal for them to cost more than 100 yuan."
It didn't matter if he earned 10,000 yuan or 50,000 yuan. For him, things like summer clothes were all the same. There wasn't a big difference. If he bought something too good, he might as well spend the money elsewhere.
At the same time, because of his upbringing and the environment he grew up in, he always thought that men earned money for the sake of their wives and children. Therefore, his girlfriend should wear good clothes.
Although he had always wanted to get rid of the influence of Xu Wenbin and the others, some things were still subtly rooted in the depths of his heart.
The problem was that reality told him that if a man only invested in himself, dressed himself up well, wore branded clothes, sprayed perfume, and used hair gel, and was reluctant to clean up and buy decent clothes for his girlfriend, making her look sloppy and disdainful of her, even though he was a scumbag, he was still very popular.
On the contrary, if he was an honest man who wholeheartedly cared for his girlfriend, raised her well, and was reluctant to invest in himself, and didn't know how to dress himself, like Qin Hao, who only had a crew cut, no matter how good he was to the girl, she would still disdain him.
It was very strange.
Unless he was extremely lucky and met a girl who also liked to dress him up, it was difficult to escape this strange circle.
Fortunately, Xu Qing had his own good looks.
