1960s: The crazy life after the alchemy furnace became a spirit

Chapter 41: Drive Away
"Sister-in-law, it's okay. It's just that some people look down on others. My parents think I'm pretty and don't like me, so they just start to curse me."

Gu Qingwu said in a cold voice, and the manager twitched his mouth.

Since he got here, the other party has been constantly attacking him, and he can't even find a reason to refute.

"Swearing? Insulting a military wife?"

Chen Hongxia's face turned even darker. She looked coldly at the manager and the saleswoman. The manager's expression changed again at this time.

"sorry."

The manager apologized again, but Gu Qingwu didn't even look at him.

"If you don't give me a satisfactory answer today, I will go to the Revolutionary Committee."

Although she didn't like the Revolutionary Committee, when the time came, she didn't mind using some special means. She didn't care why the other party was angry with her, she didn't want to suffer this injustice.

"Apologize."

The manager looked at the saleswoman who was still standing there without any scruples, pushed her hard and said.

"Go to the Revolutionary Committee."

When the saleswoman heard Gu Qingwu's words, she was no longer afraid. Her brother-in-law was suitable to be the director of the Revolutionary Committee.

Gu Qingwu immediately realized that this female salesperson had support in the Revolutionary Committee.

"Haha, do you believe it or not, your support is of no use to me?"

Gu Qingwu looked at the other person mockingly and said, why is this person so bold? He must have someone in the Revolutionary Committee.

"Don't worry, comrade. I'll transfer her to the warehouse to clean. I won't let her appear at your counter again."

The manager was so angry that he wanted to hit someone. He exposed his background so blatantly. Did the Chairman of the Revolutionary Committee really think he could cover up everything?

"manager?"

The saleswoman didn't expect to hear such a punishment, and she immediately quit.

"Shut up."

The manager didn't even look at the other person and apologized to Gu Qingwu again.

Gu Qingwu waved her hand.

"No need to apologize or anything like that. I won't buy anything either. Since your department store doesn't serve the people and doesn't take them seriously, and you classify people into different classes, even if a beggar comes in to buy something, as long as he gives money and a ticket, you should be able to sell the goods, right?"

Gu Qingwu was too lazy to waste time talking to them.

"Haha, I hope your backer can always protect you."

After Gu Qingwu finished speaking, she turned and left.

When Chen Hongxia saw Gu Qingwu turn around and leave, she sighed softly.

"I will report today's incident directly to the army when I return. We, the military wives, were scolded outside, and this matter will not be let go like this."

After Chen Hongxia finished speaking, she turned and left.

When the manager heard this, his face turned red with anger.

"Go back to your home. You don't need to come here anymore."

The manager said angrily, pointing at the door of the department store. The saleswoman rolled her eyes when she heard what the manager said.

"Humph, if you dare to chase me away today, don't beg me to come back."

After the saleswoman finished speaking, she took off the sleeves in her hands and threw them on the counter. The manager was so mad at her. At this time, she still thought that her brother-in-law could protect her.

What a fool.

"You should still hope that your brother-in-law can protect you."

I just don't know if this woman will still dare to be so arrogant when the time comes.

… “Qingqing, are you okay?”

After leaving the department store, Chen Hongxia looked at Gu Qingwu with concern.

Gu Qingwu smiled and shook his head, looking at Chen Hongxia apologetically.

"I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I've caused you trouble."

Gu Qingwu apologized directly. There was no other way. She had met a fool, so she had to apologize. After all, she had implicated the other party.

"Hey, what's this?"

Chen Hongxia didn't feel that she was implicated. She didn't buy the yarn, but she could buy it next time.

"Sister-in-law, why don't you go back?"

Gu Qingwu looked at Chen Hongxia apologetically and said that Chen Hongxia was usually very busy, and it was not easy for them to come to the county town.

"Okay, stop worrying."

Chen Hongxia looked at Gu Qingwu with amusement as she looked guilty. She had long been fed up with the sales clerks in the department store.

"Sister-in-law will take you to a place."

Chen Hongxia thought of the black market. The goods there were complete and the attitude was good. Wasn't it just a matter of spending a little more money?

"Sister-in-law, no need."

Gu Qingwu hurriedly grabbed Chen Hongxia. If it weren't for Chen Hongxia, she could go to the black market by herself, but now, it is better not to take the risk. After all, if she was caught, it would have a bad impact.

"Aren't you going to buy yarn?"

Chen Hongxia asked again and Gu Qingwu shook his head.

"At most, my sister-in-law can just bring it back for me next time she comes to the county town."

No matter what you buy, the department store has probably blacklisted her, so she'd better not look for trouble.

"How about you, sister-in-law, go buy it for me. I'll wait for you at the state-owned restaurant."

Gu Qingwu still wanted to take the opportunity to take out some things from the space.

What she needed to do most now was to get Chen Hongxia away.

"alright."

Chen Hongxia thought about it and decided to go back.

"If you want to walk around, you can walk around outside. It's still early and we won't be back until the afternoon."

Chen Hongxia gave Gu Qingwu a worried reminder. Gu Qingwu nodded after hearing what Chen Hongxia said.

Seeing Gu Qingwu nod obediently, Chen Hongxia turned around and went back to the department store. She did have a lot of things to buy.

Gu Qingwu walked slowly around the county town. She found a secluded place and took out a lot of cotton and cotton cloth. These two things could be bought on the black market.

If she had the means, she could buy it in the department store. The temperature here is so low, she has the clothes she is wearing, but no winter clothes yet.

She took out more than ten kilograms of cotton, preparing to go back and make two sets of cotton coats, and also make one for Qin Haonan. She could see that Qin Haonan's life was particularly rough. All his clothes were issued by the army. He never bought clothes on a regular basis. Gu Qingwu didn't know how Qin Haonan had been living all these years.

He had only bought two new sets of clothes recently, and they were made by her.

She even prepared some underwear for him. She felt embarrassed at first, but when she accidentally discovered that Qin Haonan's underwear was torn, she had no choice but to make it for him. There was no other way because underwear was so hard to buy nowadays.

Thinking of Qin Haonan, she felt much better.

Of course, she did not ignore the saleswoman. She cast a wisp of spiritual consciousness on her. She planned to take time out in the next two days to visit her brother-in-law. If her brother-in-law did anything against the law, she would definitely make him suffer a fate worse than death. As for the saleswoman, she would also investigate her. If she did anything speculative, she would retaliate directly.

Yes, Gu Qingwu had no intention of letting the other party go. As for what Chen Hongxia said about reporting to the army, Gu Qingwu didn't take it to heart at all. Although the army would protect her, she was not injured or anything, so no matter how much the army protected her, it would be useless.
