Early the next morning, Chen Zhangsheng and Ma Juhua took Jiujiu to the county town on the village's ox cart.
The county town was as lively as a modern market. Hawkers could be seen everywhere, and snacks could be found on both sides of the street, emitting a charming fragrance.
Chen Zhangsheng and Ma Juhua sold some of the game they usually picked, and then took Jiujiu to the jewelry store to buy things.
Chen Zhangsheng couldn't afford the large items, but he had enough money to buy a pair of bracelets and a hairpin.
Chen Zhangsheng took Ma Juhua to the jewelry store to choose, comparing the styles and prices. After a long time, they finally chose a pair of simple and elegant silver bracelets and a silver hairpin.
After carefully putting away the things they had bought, the three of them went to the cloth shop to buy some cloth.
Because Jiujiu was newly married, the cloth they bought for Jiujiu was a brighter color. As for Chen Zhangsheng, he also bought cloth for himself and Ma Juhua, and Jiujiu dragged Chen Zhangsheng to buy a blue cloth.
In fact, last time Jiujiu found that Huang Yixiao's clothes were a bit old.
Although Huang Yixiao's clothes were clean, those who were more attentive could see that Huang Yixiao only had one or two pieces of clothing. However, Huang Yixiao's temperament was good, and every time they met, he would wash his clothes until they were spotless. This made people subconsciously ignore the fact that his coarse old clothes were already very worn out.
But Jiujiu looked at Huang Yixiao all the time, and naturally found that most of Huang Yixiao's clothes were very old. Looking carefully, she could see that they had been worn for many years.
But thinking about it, most people in the mountain village made their own clothes. Huang Yixiao's clothes were naturally made by Li Qiuyue. Li Qiuyue was paralyzed in bed for a long time, so how could she make clothes for him? Presumably, the clothes he was wearing were made by Li Qiuyue in the past.
Previously, he clearly had money in his hands, but he spent a large amount of money to buy her a flashy moisturizer and gave her all his money, but he was reluctant to buy her a new set of clothes. This kind of man was simply a man that all women wanted.
To return the favor, Huang Yixiao treated her wholeheartedly. Naturally, Jiujiu would also treat Huang Yixiao wholeheartedly. Therefore, Jiujiu was going to make a set of clothes for Huang Yixiao.
Moreover, not long after they got married, Huang Yixiao would have to go to school in the county. At that time, he would be dressed too shabbily, which would inevitably be a little bad. Since Huang Yixiao was her man, Jiujiu naturally had to think of him in all aspects.
In Jiujiu's opinion, green was the most suitable color for Huang Yixiao.
By the time they finished buying the cloth, it was almost noon. However, the things in the county were too expensive, so Chen Zhangsheng and Ma Juhua were reluctant to spend money on a meal. In order to save money, they hurried back home.
Just as they reached the door, they saw Huang Yixiao waiting with food in his hands. When he saw them return, Huang Yixiao hurriedly went forward to take the things Chen Zhangsheng was carrying. As he walked inside, he said, "Why didn't Father-in-law call me? I can also help you carry things."
After putting the things inside the room, Huang Yixiao hurriedly came out and took the cloth from Jiujiu's arms so that Jiujiu could rest for a while.
When he put the cloth back and saw the green cloth, Huang Yixiao was stunned for a moment. Then, as if he understood, he revealed a smile.
Chen Zhangsheng and Ma Juhua's clothes were mainly made of dark colors, while Jiujiu's clothes were naturally made of bright colors. It went without saying who this batch of green cloth was for.
Huang Yixiao could guess that Chen Zhangsheng was going to buy Jiujiu's dowry, but he did not expect that Jiujiu would actually buy cloth for him.
When he lowered his head and saw that his clothes were clean but unavoidably worn out, Huang Yixiao's eyes flickered and he could not help but reveal a faint smile.
He liked Jiujiu and Jiujiu, but not all liking came without asking for anything in return. He treated Jiujiu well, so he naturally wanted to receive a response. Now that he received a response from Jiujiu, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was wild with joy.
The corners of Huang Yixiao's mouth curled up as he looked at Jiujiu with eyes as gentle as water.
Chen Zhangsheng and his family went to the market early in the morning and strolled until noon before returning. The whole family was so hungry that their chests were sticking to their backs. Now that Huang Yixiao brought food, they naturally ate without any reservation.
Huang Yixiao, who usually left after delivering food, did not leave this time. Instead, he sat to the side and quietly looked at Jiujiu.
Jiujiu's brows and eyes were so beautiful. Her lips were pink and tender like the most beautiful flower petals. When she chewed, her cheeks were as cute as a little mouse. He could not help but want to poke them to see if they were really as round as a little mouse.
After Chen Zhangsheng and Ma Juhua finished eating, they saw Huang Yixiao looking at Jiujiu with an infatuated expression. The two of them looked at each other and quickly left.
It was a good thing that her son-in-law was willing to get close to her daughter.
Chen Zhangsheng and Ma Juhua's departure gave Huang Yixiao a good opportunity to get close to Jiujiu.
Huang Yixiao sat across from Jiujiu and watched as Jiujiu ate like a little mouse. His gaze became increasingly gentle.
Being watched by Huang Yixiao's gentle gaze, even if Jiujiu's skin was thick, she still could not take it. After swallowing the last bite of food in her mouth with difficulty, Jiujiu raised her head and looked at Huang Yixiao. "Big brother Huang, why are you looking at me like that?"
A small red cloud appeared on Huang Yixiao's robust cheeks. His fine eyelashes gently fluttered, hiding the myriad of thoughts in his eyes. He softly said, "It's nothing. I just want to look at you."
From when he was young until now, aside from Li Qiuyue, this was the first time Huang Yixiao had been so close to a girl. Moreover, when he thought that this girl would be his future woman, Huang Yixiao's heart swelled up as if he had eaten a ginseng fruit. His entire body felt comfortable.
Jiujiu pursed her lips and looked up timidly at Huang Yixiao. She quietly said, "Big brother Huang, I-I'm going to clean up the dishes."
"I'll help you." Huang Yixiao immediately stood up and quickly picked up all the bowls and chopsticks on the table. Then, he directly walked into the kitchen. Not long after, there was a clattering sound. Not long after, Huang Yixiao walked out with wet hands and said to Jiujiu, "I'm done washing up. Is there anything else you want me to do?"
Jiujiu pursed her lips and thought for a moment. "Then come with me. I'll take your measurements."
Huang Yixiao had a tall stature and was a size wider than the average man. The matter of clothes was neither too big nor too small. If it was a normal person, it would not be a problem. However, Huang Yixiao was different. He would be going to school soon. If he wore clothes that were too big, it would inevitably give people a wanton and unrestrained feeling. If it were too small, it would not be good. It would not be comfortable and would not look elegant.
Therefore, Jiujiu prepared to take Huang Yixiao's measurements to make clothes that were more suitable for him.
