Chapter 1490: Massive Purchases 3
Feng Qingxue, accustomed to spending generously without a second thought, moved to the counter selling pastries, candies, and preserved fruits and turned back to her two nephews, "Come over here, choose whatever you like to eat, let’s buy more, several dozens of pounds of it. We can send some to relatives and friends, and some to Xiaoyue, she’s pregnant and needs to nourish herself well."
When her husband was not around, Feng Qingxue dressed very plainly, even wearing old clothes with patches.
To the sales clerk, she looked downright shabby, after all, the clerk was accustomed to interacting with foreigners or high-ranking officials and their children, most of whom dressed much better than the average person. So when she heard what Feng Qingxue said, she snorted arrogantly, "Do you know where you are? This isn’t some place for country bumpkins, and you’re talking about buying dozens of pounds!"
Country bumpkins? Feng Qingxue looked down at herself, then looked at her two nephews.
Even though they were indeed wearing last year’s old clothes, with their family upbringing and impressive knowledge, their temperament was far from that of simple country folks, right?
"Aren’t you supposed to serve the people, what kind of way is this to speak?" Guan Yu’s temper flared up, and his hometown dialect spilled out.
The sales clerk gave them a look as if to say ’I told you so’ and glanced at him disdainfully.
"Ayu, who are you? Why bother arguing with her?" Since Feng Qingxue planned to come back to buy Beijing specialty snacks like ’Jingba Jian’ for Christine before she left, today’s shopping was for the family and friends. Feng Qingxue slapped a few bridge bills on the counter, "Six pounds of Tuckahoe pie, six pounds of walnut cookies, six pounds of fruit preserves, six pounds of milk candies. About one pound of ’Jingba Jian’ will require six boxes, and for the two-pound ’Jingba Jian’, six boxes as well. If the overseas Chinese currency isn’t enough, I’ll cover it with additional tickets!"
