Chapter 164: Watching the Show

Su Qing had thought she understood what her elder sister was getting at, but now she was more confused than ever.

“Big Sister, I don’t understand. Is building good relationships better than being down-to-earth and carrying oneself responsibly?”

What was Big Sister trying to tell her? Why did it seem like she was flip-flopping between one set of values and another?

“It’s alright if you don’t understand everything I’ve said. When you have the time, I’d like you to think about what I’ve said. You need to start using your head more.” Su Wen led the way to the second floor. The mall had three floors and was the largest state-owned mall in the county; it stocked a wide range of items to satisfy the town’s needs.

Since they were already here, Su Wen could not allow herself to return empty-handed.

She planned to buy a few things and perhaps a small gift for her younger sisters.

Something like pens and pencils – stationery her sisters would need for school. Su Wen was not about to buy schoolbags for her sisters, though. Schoolbags these days were ugly, box-like contraptions that did nothing to alleviate the pain of carrying heavy books. More often than not, they did more harm than good since prolonged usage could negatively impact a student’s spine.

Fourth Sister and Fifth Sister would be high school students in the coming semester, while Sixth Sister and Little Sister Su would begin elementary school around the same time. All of them would need stationery for school.

“I’ll take this, this, and this. Yes, I’m sure. I want four sets of each, please. Do you also have any pens and notebooks? If you do, I’ll take them all. Make that twenty!”

Su Wen was a veritable whirlwind sweeping through the shopping mall, gathering everything her sisters would need. She never hesitated, quickly picking out the things she wanted. Her slender fingers tapped on the items once, and as if by magic, the items would pile themselves in the waiting arms of the salesperson assisting her. She was so fast that even the salesperson had trouble keeping up with her.

Su Qing watched the display, gobsmacked. She did not even get the chance to stop her sister.

Meanwhile, the salesperson was so happy that her smile shone as bright as the sun. She collected all the items Su Wen wanted, never failing to inform her how much each item would cost. By the end, the salesperson could not help but eye Su Wen nervously, wondering if she could afford the sum.

Su Wen paid without batting an eye.

Once she had bought all the school supplies her sisters needed, Su Wen went clothes shopping, but she did not find anything she liked.

Su Qing sensed her sister’s disappointment and suggested, “Big Sister, why don’t we get our hands on some fabric and make them ourselves? I know how to sew, and we just bought a sewing machine. Making clothes isn’t hard.”

Su Wen nodded in agreement.

Many good fabrics were sold in the shopping mall, but each came with a hefty price tag. Still, she could not buy fabric for herself alone – she had to think about her sisters. Hence, the bolts of cloth needed to be enough for more than just her.

Being picky, Su Wen found she did not like the material Third Sister had bought on her previous excursion. Now that she could choose, she would pick something better suited to her tastes.

This one isn’t bad.” Su Wen chose a fabric with simple but elegant designs. It was refreshingly plain, and the small floral prints would add color to Sixth Sister and Little Sister Su’s everyday wear. She also picked a vibrant red that matched Su Qing and Su Xiu’s looks.

Su Qing had never worn something with such a loud color, and her face turned red.

“Big Sister, isn’t this red too eye-catching? It’s the color of a wedding dress!

Only a bride would wear something so red…”

Su Qing felt she would die of embarrassment if she wore something like that out of the house.

“It looks good.” The color was rare; few places would offer a red in such a shade. Even Su Wen felt tempted to wear a dress using this bolt of cloth.

If it were turned into a dress, something passionate would be born.

The two sisters returned home with a full load; even the bicycle’s handrails had shopping bags tied to them.

“Quick, look! Su Wen bought a sewing machine!” “Let’s go and watch the show.” “Really? Did Su Wen buy a sewing machine?”

“I’m watching them get rich!”

No one knew who shouted first, but in less than half an hour, the whole village knew the Su family had bought a sewing machine, and they all wanted to watch the show. Some of the villagers were so envious their eyes turned red.

The number of people in Trinity Village who could afford a bicycle and sewing machine could be counted on one hand.

Li Xue, of the village chief’s family, had a sewing machine and offered it up as part of a dowry, causing an endless stream of people to propose to her and ask for her hand in marriage..
