Qiqi naturally wanted to sleep with Sisi at night, and she couldn’t take her eyes off Sisi’s Princess Room when she saw it, and was dazzled by Sisi’s luxurious big bed and all the dolls on it.
"Sisi, I don’t want to go back anymore, I just want to stay with you!"
Qiqi threw herself onto the bed and clung to the dolls, collecting dolls was her biggest hobby. Yet from childhood to now, she only had five dolls, unlike Sisi, who actually had more than a dozen!
"Sure, as long as your Daddy and Mama agree, I have no objections!" Sisi said with a chuckle.
Qiqi’s face fell imdiately, "Ah, never mind then. I will just sleep holding a doll tonight."
Sisi didn’t tease her anymore. She took a doll half a ter tall out of the wardrobe and handed it to Qiqi: "Here, take this one. I originally planned to ask Third Aunt to take it back for you, but it’s even better that you ca by yourself."
"For ? Sisi, really for ?"
Sisi nodded with a smile. Qiqi jumped up and hugged her tightly, planting kisses on her cheek which left Sisi both laughing and crying.
Qiqi happily played with the doll. The doll was a beautiful foreign little girl dressed in a pretty light blue dress, with long curly brown hair, wearing a white scarf on her head, blue eyes, and brown leather shoes on her feet, paired with white socks. It was dressed just like a real little girl.
These kinds of dolls were only sold in Overseas Chinese Stores. One of her classmates had an uncle in the United States, and her family had a Foreign Remittance Ticket. She had a doll similar to this one and often invited classmates to her ho to show off her doll.
Hmph, now I have one too, and it’s even prettier than hers, Qiqi thought to herself, deciding that once school started, she would invite the girls in her class to co over and regain her reputation.
"Sisi, thank you. This doll isn’t cheap, right?" Qiqi felt a bit embarrassed, she had heard from that classmate that even with a Foreign Remittance Ticket it costs over fifty yuan.
"No worries, it’s not expensive. I bought it in Beijing. I got two, so now we each have one."
Sisi spoke while pulling out another doll from the bed. This one was dressed in a shirt and capris, looking exactly like the one Qiqi had, except for the outfit. Maybe it’s an early version of a Barbie doll.
The Foreign Remittance Ticket is very precious for others, but it’s nothing unusual for Mr. Yun. It’s said that it was Luo Datu who got them, which Sisi guessed were stolen, but now the tickets they used were obtained by Tian Xinhua, and Xinhua’s thods are much more civilized, usually exchanging them from relatives of overseas Chinese.
Furthermore, with Mr. Yun’s status, they could enjoy special services. At that ti in Beijing, there were exclusive stores near the East Gate of Donghua, serving high-level officials from the Central and military, at least at the deputy minister level or above.
The products in the exclusive store included imported brand-na appliances, watches, perfus, fabrics, chocolates, foreign liquors, jewelry, etc. Arican cola, top Russian caviar, and French foie gras were just ordinary items here, and buying here didn’t require tickets, the prices were also very low, the only requirent was your status.
So every ti Sisi went to Beijing, Luo Datu would take her shopping in the exclusive stores. Of course, she was not interested in the jewelry or perfus, but was most intrigued by the food and kitchen appliances, like microwaves and electric ovens.
Because Tian Sisi often went to those exclusive stores to shop, and with Living Yama Luo Datou accompanying her, she unwittingly beca famous in that Beijing circle. Now everyone in that circle knew about the temperantally eccentric Old Man Yun and his doted-upon beautiful little girl, who resembled a foreign doll.
It was said that she was Old Man Yun’s distant granddaughter; others said she was his illegitimate daughter. Opinions were divided, but no one could confirm Tian Sisi’s real identity except for the Yang Family, who of course wouldn’t blabber and reveal the truth.
"Right, Sister Qiqi, if my Third Aunt and Tian Lili see it, just say you asked to buy it in Beijing, so we can avoid those two making a fuss again."
Tian Sisi added another line, imagining how Xu Qianwen and her daughter Tian Lili would make a huge scene if they knew she gave a doll to Liu Qiqi but not to Tian Lili.
"Got it, I definitely won’t give them an excuse to make a scene." Liu Qiqi confidently knew how to handle such people.
The two close friends slept together at night and chatted for a long ti. Tian Sisi brought up the peculiar Zhou Nana and asked about her.
Liu Qiqi frowned, saying disdainfully, "Zhou Nana is still as annoying as before. I took your advice and stopped engaging with her, but Zhou Nana thought I was scared of her, almost flipping her tail sky-high. I don’t know how her parents raised her, committing such evil deeds and not even punishing her?"
"Sister Qiqi, just let her flip her tail. We should stay away from such lunatics. What if she goes crazy one day and treats you like she did her cousin? What would you do then?"
Tian Sisi thought Zhou Nana definitely had so ntal illness and intentionally made it sound more serious to prevent Liu Qiqi from being careless and falling into her trap.
Liu Qiqi shivered as she recalled the blood all over the ground three years ago, solemnly nodding her head, "I know, my mama also said the sa, to keep my distance from such people, respect but keep a distance, better to suffer a small loss."
"By the way, how is Sister Xiaomi doing? I quite like her." Liu Qiqi rembered Mo Xiaomi and brought her up.
Tian Sisi couldn’t help but smile, "Sister Xiaomi is doing well. She’s teaching at our town’s middle school now, in the sa school as my Brother Shouhua."
After high school, Tian Shouhua went to Wangjiazhen Middle School to teach Chinese, and Mo Xiaomi also went to Wangjiazhen Middle School the sa year, teaching mathematics. Coincidentally, they ended up teaching the sa class, truly fated.
Liu Qiqi’s gossip fire blazed, "Really? Brother Hua and Sister Xiaomi are teaching together? I think they’d make a couple, truly brought together by destiny!"
"I think so too. I heard from Sister-in-law Le Ping that originally Sister Xiaomi was going to teach at her hotown’s middle school, but by chance, their Baita Town middle school had enough teachers, so she ended up coming our way and teaching in the sa class as my Brother Hua!" Tian Sisi, who also loved gossip, excitedly discussed with Liu Qiqi.
"Really? That must be fate! I think Brother Hua and Sister Xiaomi are quite a match. A talented man and a beautiful woman, their children will definitely be good-looking in the future!"
"Yeah, they’d look good no matter whom they resemble!"
In Baita Town, Mo Xiaomi and Tian Shouhua sleeping in bed simultaneously sneezed. Who’s talking about !
