Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 67 Shopping, Watches

After giving the money, Fang Yan looked at the time and told Ding Jian’s wife that he would come to see Ding Jian tomorrow afternoon. Then he left the ward without disturbing the family.

After saying goodbye to everyone, Fang Yan walked out of the inpatient department.

Only then did he remember that his mother had asked him to buy some candy and fruit as she also had to entertain Zhu Lin in the evening. With this delay, it would not be long before he would be off work.

Fortunately, this is the central area of ​​the capital, so shopping is relatively convenient.

After Fangyan left the hospital, he quickly found a place, bought some fruits, and then went to buy some candy. He originally wanted to buy White Rabbit milk candy, but it turned out that White Rabbit was in limited supply.

The only things you can buy are red, green and yellow fruit candies and hard candies.

These days, the urban population includes all non-agricultural population, and the monthly ration per person is half a catty to one catty. The agricultural population is supplied with half a catty per person per month based on their purchase book.

Urban sugar coupons are divided into baby sugar coupons, maternal sugar coupons, and special needs sugar coupons.

There is also a kind of egg and sugar ticket for the agricultural population, which is distributed to farmers after they exchange sugar for their eggs.

The thing in Fangyan's hand was a special sugar ticket, which was held by cadres, soldiers, and personnel in some key units.

Kong Yao had previously sold Fang Yan a few internal tickets from the Commercial Bureau, which were also considered special-needs tickets.

After buying everything, when Fangyan was passing by a department store, he suddenly remembered that he had not checked the time on his watch. Sometimes he can only rely on other people or guess.

So I walked to the watch counter and prepared to take a look.

Then he saw a few watches with modern designs scattered on the counter, with prices ranging from tens to hundreds.

What surprised Fangyan was that there were even Swiss brands on the shelf behind the counter, which looked like they had been there for quite a few years.

The price is high.

Although Fangyan believed that he would be able to afford it after getting the money from selling the prescription in a few days, he did not plan to buy it. He had very low requirements, as long as he could tell the time.

Fangyan looked at them one by one, comparing their styles and prices, wondering what he should buy.

At this moment he suddenly remembered that sales clerks these days seemed to be quite aggressive. Would he be expelled if he looked at them like this?
He looked up and found that the salesperson was standing far away. Two people were chatting happily and had no time to pay attention to him.

Fangyan looked around and finally set his sights on a Shanghai brand watch.

The price is 112 and a ticket is required.

He remembered that this style was taught by his elementary school teacher in his previous life.

It looked pretty good at the time.

He decided that after he got the money in a few days, he would buy a watch ticket and then come over to pick up the watch.

After finding the target, Fang Yan looked at the time. It was almost time to get off work, so he hurriedly left the department store and headed towards the hospital.

When I arrived at my mother's outpatient clinic, Zhu Lin and Shen Hong were already chatting, and my mother had already gone to the inpatient department to see her own patients.

Seeing Fang Yan coming, Shen Hong glanced at his watch and immediately said with a smile:

"Okay, I'll be leaving now. You guys can chat."

After saying that, he took off his white coat, picked up his bag, said goodbye to the two people, and left the department.

Only Fang Yan and Zhu Lin are left here.

Zhu Lin looked at Fang Yan and found that he was also looking at her. She quickly looked away, her ears turning red.

Fang Yan suddenly felt that the queen was like a little girl, so easily shy. However, Zhu Lin lowered his head and said nothing, blushing. Fang Yan felt that the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little ambiguous.

Just when Fang Yan was trying to find a topic, Zhu Lin opened his mouth and said to Fang Yan:

"When we were rehearsing today, I saw you in the inpatient department from the window."

After hearing what Zhu Lin said, he explained in dialect:
"My senior brother was injured while on a business trip in Shandong, and was transferred to the orthopedic department of Union Hospital today." Fang Yan did not explain the details of the incident, but only stated the reason why he was in the inpatient department.

Zhu Lin asked curiously.

Thinking that the queen seemed to like seeking excitement, Fang Yan thought about it and simply told her the story. Zhu Lin's eyes flashed with strangeness.

She had never heard of such a thing before, and the martial arts world seemed like a story in a novel.

She found the places that interested her and asked Fangyan to describe them to her in detail.

I want to know the connection between Kung Fu and traditional Chinese medicine, as well as the grudges and various rules in the martial arts world.

Fangyan didn't actually know much, but the little he knew was enough to surprise the Queen, as if she had opened the door to a new world.

The two of them kept chatting until He Huiru came back, and Zhu Lin still felt a little unsatisfied.

I was so happy to see Fangyan and Zhu Lin chatting enthusiastically.

This kid of mine originally said he didn't want to have a girlfriend, but now that he has met Zhu Lin, he has finally come to his senses and no longer insists.

Getting married early can also allow you to become a grandmother earlier.

Many of my colleagues of the same age as me have become grandmothers, but in my family, only my eldest daughter is married, and her husband lives in another city. I have not even seen my granddaughter yet.

Now I am looking forward to the dialect returning to the city to work harder.

Then the three of them went off work together, and Fangyan suggested inviting Zhu Lin's father to have dinner together in the evening.

Anyway, he is my father's colleague, and the two houses are only a few steps away from each other. Zhu Lin's mother is on a business trip, and her father is alone at home. It's a bit desolate with an empty stove and no pot.

Of course, my mother, He Huiru, had no objection. It was just that it was the first time I invited a girl to my home for dinner and I also invited her father along, which seemed a bit strange. However, Fangyan had no objection, so of course she was happy to do it.

After all, we are neighbors, and maybe I have even seen their dialects when they were little. They can be said to be children who grew up under my eyes.

After asking Zhu Lin for his opinion, she readily agreed. When she and Fang Yan passed by the vegetable market, they got off the bus at the first stop. Her mother He Huiru went back first, and while Fang Yan and the others were buying vegetables, she and Fang Zhenhua went to invite Zhu Lin's father to their home.

But this news might be a bit sudden for him. After all, he didn't know Fangyan before. Now he was suddenly invited to dinner, and he didn't know what his attitude would be.

But I think it shouldn't be a big problem. The two sides are well matched, there's nothing wrong with their dialects, and they're both good-looking.

He is three years younger than Zhu Lin, so I guess Zhu Lin’s father has nothing to complain about.

Fang Yan and Zhu Lin bought some vegetables for dinner at the market, and they prepared to take a bus home together. The market was still very busy as everyone was getting off work.

Zhu Lin was talking to Fang Yan about how he almost got lost in the vegetable market when he was a child. Just as they were about to reach the market entrance, he suddenly grabbed Fang Yan's wrist.

Fang Yan was stunned. He didn't expect the queen to be so proactive.

At this time, Zhu Lin came close to Fang Yan and whispered:
"In front, next to the pregnant woman, there is a thief stealing her bag..."

Fang Yan was slightly startled, then he looked forward following her gaze, and sure enough, he saw a young girl who looked a little dull next to a pregnant woman holding a child. She was using a clip to search the bag of the pregnant woman while looking around nervously.

At this moment, the girl seemed to sense the gazes of Fang Yan and Zhu Lin. She glanced at them, then her whole body froze and she stood there in embarrassment.
