When Shen Mianmian and Xiaocui arrived, they saw Zhou Siyu at the doorstep of Zhang Changfa’s house, telling children of her age about some of the things she had seen in the city, and everyone was fawning over her.
"Siyu, I heard that the roads in the city are all paved with asphalt, and you don’t even need to wear rain boots when it rains, is that true?"
"There are also a lot of cars in the city, and something that can carry a lot of people, is it a long bus?"
"City folks are so rich, they don’t have to farm."
All of them were teenagers who had never been to the city and were engaged in farming at home.
They all longed for the city, and the information they got was either from other people’s descriptions or from TV dramas.
They were all envious of Zhou Siyu, who had been to the city.
They wanted to hear more about the city from Zhou Siyu.
"What long bus? That’s called a bus," Zhou Siyu said with disdain, looking at the child who had asked the question, thinking that the child was so rustic for not even knowing what a bus was. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝※𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖※𝕟𝕖𝕥
"Have you ridden on it?"
The child who asked the question was quite innocent and didn’t pick up on Zhou Siyu’s tone of disdain.
Seeing everyone looking at her with anticipation and envy, she snorted and said proudly, "Of course, I have ridden it."
Suddenly, a wave of envious exclamations arose from the children.
Xiaocui looked at Shen Mianmian with curiosity and said, "Did Siyu really ride in it?"
"Bullshitting?" Xiaocui looked confused.
"It means she’s lying." Shen Mianmian blinked.
Xiaocui was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter upon realizing what was meant.
The laughter drew everyone’s attention, and they turned their heads only to see Shen Mianmian.
They all rushed over to Shen Mianmian to check out her clothes.
Their admiring eyes almost popped out as they showered Shen Mianmian with compliments, and who still remembered Zhou Siyu?
The busy Zhang Family women looked outside and only caught a glimpse of Shen Mianmian’s back, not recognizing her at first, and curiously asked.
"Which village is that girl from? Her clothes look so nice."
In that era, there weren’t many entertainment programs. When people were free, they were either watching television or gossiping about household matters. If there was any slight commotion, one would be more curious than the next.
Upon hearing the Zhang Family women’s words, everyone looked over curiously.
Aunt Liu was also present and, noticing her own daughter standing there, took a closer look and exclaimed in surprise.
"That looks like Mianmian."
As soon as she spoke, Zhou Lanfang, who was watching TV, had her attention drawn.
She also glanced toward the doorway and her eyes widened.
"If not her, then who?"
Just then, Shen Mianmian walked in.
Down jackets had just come out, and many people were seeing one for the first time, but one look at the material, and they knew the clothing was not cheap.
"The little bear on this jacket is even hand-stitched."
"That must cost quite a bit, right?"
"This thin, is it warm?"
"I think cotton-padded jackets are warmer, this one looks nice but isn’t practical."
"These little leather shoes even have fur inside."
"Is this real leather?"
Everyone was pulling at Shen Mianmian’s clothes, inspecting them from all angles.
Shen Mianmian didn’t mind it.
Villagers liked to do this; growing up in the countryside, although she didn’t like it much, she was used to it.
Zhang Family’s daughter-in-law said sourly, "Lanfang, has Jianhua been making a lot of money lately? Buying such expensive clothes for Mianmian?"
This outfit must cost at least a couple hundred.
That’s what someone else might spend in a year.
Shen Jianhua must really be willing to spend!
Previously people said he was partial, but who knew he would turn around and buy such expensive clothes for Shen Mianmian.
