Chapter 156 Buying a Radio for My Wife
Li Hongmei was furious at her outrageous demands, trembling with anger: "You're simply unreasonable!"

She made herself so clear yesterday, and Zhao Caihua still came to cause trouble. Does she really think she's someone important?

"I'm unreasonable? I think you've forgotten your roots!"

Zhao Caihua glared at her: "If it weren't for me back then..."

"enough!"

Li Hongmei interrupted her sharply, "Don't talk about those things here! If you keep causing trouble, I'll call the police!"

Zhao Caihua was startled by her imposing manner and paused for a moment before reacting: "Go ahead and call the police! I want the police to judge whether it's illegal for a daughter to disown her own mother!"

With the two sides deadlocked, Liang Yi, holding An Min's hand, stood quietly outside the crowd watching from a distance.

“I went to find Li Hongmei on purpose. Do you think Li Hongmei would let it go after she found out that Zhao Caihua was asking us for money but didn’t tell her?”

Liang Yi said this with a smile.

He's trying to shift the blame onto Li Hongmei and Zhao Caihua.

Zhao Caihua and Li Laonian are like two stubborn plasters, the kind you can't shake off.

"That was a really clever move of yours."

An Min couldn't help but give Liang Yi a thumbs up in praise.

Liang Yi chuckled and took her hand: "Alright, this time, no one will bother us anymore."

"I'll take you to buy something."

During this period, Anmin's mood was not very good because of Zhao Caihua's appearance.

Today, Liang Yi entrusted Si'an and Shouye to Sister Wang for temporary care, and he brought Anmin out.

Firstly, it's to watch the excitement; secondly, it's naturally to buy something nice.

"What are you doing? Wasting money again."

Anmin grasped his hand in return and gave a coquettish sigh.

Liang Yi didn't say anything, but gestured for An Min to get on the bicycle. He then took her to the largest department store in the area.

An Min's eyes widened slightly when she saw what Liang Yi wanted to buy.

"radio?"

This stuff isn't cheap, and tickets are hard to get.

"Hello comrade, could you please give us one that can access international channels?"

Liang Yi knew that the head of the research institute had an idea.

He wanted Anmin to work at the translation station.

Anmin understands Russian and can also do simultaneous interpretation, which is both excellent and accurate.

This is a rare talent.

Liang Yi then thought of buying her a radio so that she could listen to international news at home and improve her dictation skills.

Moreover, she can listen to many things on the radio, so she won't feel bored if she's there.

He originally wanted to buy a television, but television tickets were extremely rare, so Anmin had to make do with the radio for now.

The sales clerk deftly took out a jet-black radio.

The outer casing was polished to a shine, gleaming with a warm glow under the light.

Liang Yi took it and tried it out. The tuning knob made a crisp click when it was turned, and the announcer's voice came through the speaker, so clear that it sounded like someone was speaking right next to his ear.

"That's it."

Liang Yi paid the money and the ticket, and carefully put the radio into his bag.

An Min leaned closer, her fingertips lightly touching the bag, a smile she couldn't hide on her lips: "From now on, we can listen to storytelling at home?"

"Not only can we listen to storytelling, but also the weather forecast, opera, and whatever else we want to listen to. Once we get a TV ticket, we'll upgrade to a bigger one."

Liang Yi pulled An Min up to the top of the department store, wanting to buy her a new dress.

"Aren't we going home?"

An Min looked at a red lacquered wooden sign hanging at the top of the stairs on the second floor, with the words "Clothing and Footwear Section" written in white paint on it, the edges of the lettering slightly worn. Liang Yi pulled her upstairs, and the faint sound of announcements coming from inside the building made it feel less deserted.

Why are you in such a hurry to go back?

Liang Yi turned to look at her, a smile in his eyes.

"Li Hongmei is keeping an eye on Zhao Caihua's side, so she won't cause trouble here for a while. Sister Wang can take care of the child. Besides, didn't you mention last time that you didn't have any new clothes to wear for the changing season?"

An Min's cheeks flushed slightly; he had remembered a casual remark she made last time.

The second floor is brighter than the first floor, with several rows of wooden shelves standing against the wall.

It was covered with all kinds of clothes, blue, gray, military green, and occasionally you could see a few with floral patterns, like starlight emerging in a gray world.

The saleswoman was a woman in her thirties with short, ear-length hair. She greeted them warmly as they approached.

"Comrade, what would you like to buy? Look at this girl's figure, she'd look great in one of our new floral dresses."

As she spoke, she took a light blue dress from the shelf. The hem was printed with tiny white jasmine flowers, and the fabric was crisp polyester that shimmered softly under the light.

"Isn't this color too bright?"

Anmin subconsciously took half a step back, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

She usually wears plain colors, so this bright color seemed a bit too eye-catching at first glance.

"It looks better when it's bright."

Liang Yi took the dress, held it up against An Min, and his eyes lit up.

"My wife has fair skin and is very pretty. This blue color suits her perfectly. Shall we try it on?"

He shoved the dress into Anmin's hands and pointed towards the fitting room to the sales clerk.

He remembered that Anmin was wearing similar clothes when they first met.

The blue dress is absolutely gorgeous.

Like a delicate porcelain doll.

"Thank you for your help, comrade."

The fitting room is a small space separated by a curtain.

She quickly changed into her dress, hesitated for a moment behind the curtain before gently lifting it a crack.

Liang Yi was leaning against the shelf waiting when he saw her come out, and his eyes widened a little.

The light blue dress, just reaching her knees, made her already fair skin appear even more translucent.

The jasmine on the hem of her skirt seemed to come alive, swaying gently with her movements.

Anmin felt uncomfortable under his gaze, nervously clutching the hem of her skirt with both hands, and asked softly, "Does it look bad?"

"It's beautiful, so beautiful."

Liang Yi stepped forward and reached out to straighten her collar.

His fingertips accidentally touched her neck, and An Min flinched, but he didn't move his hand away; he just lightened the pressure.

"This is it. I'll also put a cardigan on it for you so you can wear it when it gets cool in the mornings and evenings."

The sales clerk chimed in with a smile, "This lady is so thoughtful. This skirt goes perfectly with that light gray cardigan. It just arrived last week; the material is pure cotton, and it's so soft."

Liang Yi had An Min try on the cardigan, and it suited her perfectly.

Without much hesitation, he asked the sales clerk to issue a receipt, then turned to Anmin and asked, "Want to see anything else? Socks or hair clips?"

Anmin quickly shook her head: "That's enough, that's enough. Buying so many has already cost a lot of money."

She looked down at her new dress, feeling a sweet warmth in her heart.

Liang Yi paid for the clothes, carefully folded the new dress and cardigan and put them in his bag, then naturally took An Min's hand: "Let's go, I'll make you braised pork when we get home to celebrate the arrival of our new baby."

"Ah."

Anmin agreed and followed him downstairs with light steps.

Sunlight streamed through the glass windows of the department store, falling on their clasped hands.

The distant arguments had long been forgotten; at this moment, the world seemed to consist only of the people around me and my heart full of joy.
