Asti Girl Carrying the Curse
Chapters 184. At the Shopping Event
The report came from Puspita, if they need to shop to fill the merchandise that is only a little left in the clothing store" Muslimah" While the goods ordered from the subscription convection has not been sent. Thank you, the convection party owned by Ibu Saidah got a barrier from the scarcity of raw materials... That is the difficulty in the supply of cotton fabric materials from textile factories in other cities.
This time Asti promised to also go shopping merchandise for the store. The two made a promise to leave on the next two days.
Ningrum seemed to have been trustworthy guarding the shop alone. So Puspita is more quiet shopping with Asti, to look for merchandise to the larger market in the city of Solo.
All Asti buys needs for himself personally. Especially the underwear and daily clothes for Qani and Akbar, whose body size has grown. So it needs a new one.
Dimas who asked Mr. Leon to remain a driver for Asti to bring the new Inova. Because Mr. Leon is increasingly unsettled if Asti travels in a new car with a distance far enough.
Especially as a mother, Asti is also less comfortable if traveling a long time without bringing her two children. So they went with the group, with two children and two caregivers at once who would take part in the shopping event.
" We're going to Klewer Market, Ma'am! Check out the latest hijab models and dresses there !" ribbon Proposal.
" Maybe, let the kids wait in the parking lot!" Answer Asti. Unimagined reports brought Akbar into the market, because the place was always crowded by visitors almost every day.
Ma'am Putri is quite happy to be invited to travel, this time. Because this simple girl rarely goes far from the surrounding area . He kept remembering Mr. Leon's message, to keep an eye out for Akbar. Because, Akbar can not be left without close supervision... Akbar's curiosity about something is very big. Without the little child to pay attention to the various dangers that exist threatening around him.
The trip takes more than 1 hour, to visit the city of Surakarta... Their cars must be carried away with the heavy flow of traffic in the city on certain segments. As at the intersection of red lights, also alternative roads that can only be passed one way only.
" Dimas, you're looking for a shady parking spot, yeah! ... Please help keep an eye on Akbar!" asti Pinta.
" Done, Ma'am!" Said Dimas politely.
Asti gave a piece of money fifty thousand... " This is, to buy coffee! Please if you're smoking somewhere safe, some distance from Qani!"
Asti knew very well, some of the employees in Leon's office also like to smoke. But they do these activities at rest hours, also outside the office area. Because of working and dealing with clients or crowds, Leon wants his office to be smoke-free and cigarette ash-free. Moreover, the workers there are men.
Cars were parked along with dozens of other cars across the market building. It looks like the building is getting better after several renovations due to a fire accident some time ago.
Dimas managed to get a very strategic parking lot. Be him carrying Qani and Akbar to be able to rest in the car or outside the car park area. Because the place is quite shaded with a lot of greenery trees and roofs of big stores and street vendors arranged neatly next to it.
Shortly after, Asti and Puspita entered the two-story building to shop. Akbar also asked to get out of the car and accompanied by the Princess. Various small foods and drinks were removed from the backpack carried by the Princess Mother. All of that was a snack for his two children Asti Mbak. Qani also asked to come down, and a stroller was prepared so that Bu Jum was not too tired. Because it must continue to carry Qani who is getting heavier just the scales.
Usually Asti stopped by first to the store owned by one of his many subscriptions that have stock items in the form of batik skirts, batik culottes, and long batik cloth modified as well as some tops of the latest batik blouse models.
The workers there immediately packed Asti's request. Because Asti buys quite a lot for each model, size and different motifs. Because it has been a long subscription, Asti can usually exchange defective items or the count is less on the owner of the store. Of course after sending the news is also evidence of photos of damaged goods.
Pita was busy taking notes and keeping those grocery notes. Also pay close attention to the location of the stall. Because there are hundreds of stalls selling almost similar goods.
While the requested groceries are being prepared by the store clerk. They moved to other stores that sold various batik for clothing, bed linen and daily necessities such as bags and sandals.
" Aren't you going to buy a robe for mom, Pita?" asti bargain. Because the gamis with batik materials are sold there, the price is not too expensive. Depends on the mode and the material.
" Asti wants to buy it too?"
" Maybe, make people at home later.."
They choose a game made from a mixture of batik, brocade or with variations of other materials. Asti also bought 2 batik shirts which material is quite good for Leon. Leon usually uses a batik shirt for formal and non-formal events, outside office hours. Such as attending invitations from business friends or meetings between fellow entrepreneurs who often hold various events at regular intervals.
Asti was looking for teenage boys, who used to offer freight services in the market. He used the energy of three teenage boys to carry three large cardboard boxes and crisp bags for them to carry. After the cardboard boxes have been prepared and neatly tied by employees at the original store.
The teenagers were very happy because they could bring a lot of heavy groceries. The three teenagers quickly descended the concrete staircase towards the outside door of the market, from the front.
They were assisted by parking officers in front of the building, while crossing the street in front of the city's largest textile market. In addition to many visited buyers from other small merchants. The place was also made as a tourist attraction and tourist visits. Seen there are some shopping boules, escorted by a guide from a travel agent.
" Mr Asti?" call Dimas." We're here!"
Shouted Dimas after the man saw the group of teenagers and Asti who became a guide. Dimas immediately opened the trunk behind the car and helped the teenagers put their groceries there . From afar, it looks like Akbar is walking led by Mbak Putri and Qani in Bu Jum's car.
" Thank you, Mom!" said the teenager when Asti gave a pretty decent wage for them. S The wage is enough to buy just lunch with a decent and complete menu.
"'So, Mr. Leon called, Ma'am! He said we were waiting at a restaurant. I have got the location, Ma'am! " Report Dimas.
" How, Pita?"
" It's up, Madam Asti... But do we not look like this village, Ma'am? Just coming home shopping, I'm messy and the veil is like this. Even at a meeting with Mr. Leon's business friend...."
"How, Dimas?" asti asked also hesitating.
" Mr Asti Kayak does not know Mr. Leon... He was happy to meet his wife and son at the restaurant while having lunch together... Especially if the business is successful this time... We've got a good meal!"
" Substantial, you're Dimas! Food is still being thought of! Your body remains thin this way... Meat is not the food you eat. It even became..."
" Wind off, Mrs Jum. Alias mambu !" princess's Reply.
Bu Jum laughed amusedly, looking at the Princess' slightly silly answer. They immediately got into the car... Assisted by the Princess who sat in front while holding the expensive hape Dimas. They will search for a place, a restaurant where Leon and his business friends meet, through a GPS application.
In the car, Asti was helped by Bu Jum to clean the mouths of the children from crackers. Moreover, Qani whose eyes have been five watts after being given one dot bottle of formula milk. Extra milk in addition to breast milk on the instructions of the pediatrician, which is recommended by Leon's best friend.
