Chapter 739 Stocking up on wine
As her eighteenth birthday approaches, Yunyi also starts to get busy. After all, after receiving the marriage certificate, she still has to hold a simple wedding banquet here.
Although everything is kept simple, the dowry still needs to be prepared. After all, it is a major event in a lifetime, so this should not be troublesome.
On his day off, Huo Jingrui borrowed a car from the machinery factory and took Yun Yi to the city. In this era, they all had the three-turn and one-ring bells required for weddings.
As for wedding quilts, blankets, etc., my future mother-in-law has already prepared them. They are all going back to Beijing anyway, so there is no need to prepare too much.
After walking around in a circle, Huo Jingrui had nothing but a large bag of milk candies and fruit candies in his hand: "Yier, go to the clothing area and buy some more clothes."
Yun Yi waved her hands and said: "No, I prepared two sets in the package that my aunt sent from Beijing last time, as well as a few sets you brought for me on a business trip before. There is no shortage of clothes at all. Besides, I bought too much for returning to Beijing. It’s also a time of trouble.”
Huo Jingrui looked at her determined expression: "Then let's go to a place that sells shoes. It's getting colder every day and see if there are any suitable shoes."
Yun Yi thought about it. If nothing else happened, she would stay here until after the college entrance examination. She had no shortage of clothes, but she should buy two pairs of warm shoes.
The two walked over there and chose two pairs of shoes for Yun Yi, a pair of pigskin semi-high-heeled short boots with wool lining, a pair of flat cowhide winter shoes, and a pair of cowhide shoes for Huo Jingrui.
When I was about to leave, I heard the salesperson at the tobacco and alcohol counter on the first floor say that a new batch of Moutai had arrived and had just been unloaded into the warehouse.
Thinking that Huo Jingrui still had a lot of wine tickets: "Jingrui, let's stock up on some Maotai liquor."
Naturally, Huo Jingrui would not object: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
The two of them walked straight to the tobacco and alcohol counter: "Comrade, how much does a bottle of Moutai cost?"
The salesman didn't even raise his head: "Eight yuan a bottle, a drink ticket."
Yun handed the things in her hand to Huo Jingrui and was ready to show off her skills: "Comrade, can I buy more?"
This time the salesperson finally raised her head and opened her mouth to say something, but when she saw the two people standing in front of her, her words changed: "One person is limited to two bottles." Yun Yi heard the purchase limit one by one, and was a little disappointed. He found four drink tickets in his bag and said, "Then give me four bottles."
The salesperson might have been distracted, so he opened his mouth and said, "Didn't I just tell you that each bottle is limited to two bottles?"
Yun Yi pointed at Huo Jingrui beside him: "The two of us have four bottles in total, right?"
The salesman wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he shut up and took four bottles of Maotai directly from under the counter.
After paying the ticket and leaving the counter, Huo Jingrui said, "Wait for me here. I'll put my things in the car and come over."
After saying that, he wanted to get what Yunyi was holding.
As a result, Yun Yi stopped him directly: "I'll go with you, it's hard for you to take it alone."
Huo Jingrui saw Yun Yi insisting and didn't object.
After putting the things in the car, Huo Jingrui closed the trunk and asked, "Do you still want Maotai?"
Yun Yi raised her eyes and looked at him: "Do you have anything to do with it?"
Huo Jingrui smiled and said: "Guo Qiming's cousin-in-law is the section chief of the purchasing department of the department store. He happened to be here. Let's go over and recognize him."
Yun Yi punched Huo Jingrui with her arm: "I didn't tell you earlier."
The two went directly to the office area of the department store. Huo Jingrui walked to an office with ease and knocked on the door.
