In 1985, at the county supply and marketing cooperative, saleswoman Ye Qianke was confronting Zhu Tietuo over three kilograms of brown sugar. Veteran Luo Xingwu suddenly said, "Don't arrest people without evidence." This was the beginning of tit-for-tat confrontation between the two. She was serious enough to look for sugar residue in her sleeves, and he was so silent that he only used his actions to protect her from the gangsters. This pair of "golden partners" who seemed to be incompatible, but in the collision between the ledger and the bullet casing, a prairie fire started.
Ye Qianke could calculate the profit and loss of the three-foot counter, but she could not calculate Luo Xingwu's tenderness hidden behind the military medals; Luo Xingwu could carry the heavy goods in the warehouse, but he could not carry the bowl of ginger soup she handed him. From working together to expose Zhu Xiaobao's conspiracy to falsify accounts, to carrying her through the flood on a rainy night to grab the account books; from finding a way out for Lan Jindie's honey, to accompanying Murong Li in negotiating foreign trade orders, in the small world of the supply and marketing cooperative, they turned their tit-for-tat into a tacit understanding of "you settle accounts, I support you."
When the signboard of "Xingke Supermarket" replaced the old supply and marketing cooperative, and when the shell pendant reflected the white hair of the golden wedding, Ye Qianke realized that his words of "responsibility" back then were actually his lifelong guard; Luo Xingwu also realized that the crisp sound of her abacus had become the most stable heartbeat for the rest of his life.
This is not an earth-shattering legend, but just two ordinary people living their lives seriously and warming up the years with perseverance - just like the old counter of the supply and marketing cooperative. The longer it is worn, the more fireworks and affection in the world can be hidden.
