秋天的北京，空气中有微微的凉意，

In the autumn of Beijing, there's a slight chill in the air.

王府井大街上灯笼高挂，庆祝刚过去的中秋节。

Lanterns hang high on Wangfujing Street, celebrating the recently passed Mid-Autumn Festival.

人来人往，路边摊飘来糖炒栗子的香气。

People come and go, and the aroma of roasted chestnuts wafts from the roadside stalls.

李明和小雨正在大街上穿行，他们今天的任务是为即将到来的冬天购买保暖的衣服。

Li Ming and Xiao Yu are walking down the street with today's task of buying warm clothes for the approaching winter.

"李明，我们先去商场看看吧！"小雨兴奋地提议。

"Li Ming, let's check out the mall first!" Xiao Yu suggested excitedly.

"好，但我希望能找到价格实惠的衣服。"李明说道，他向来重视预算。

"Okay, but I hope we can find clothes that are reasonably priced," Li Ming said, always mindful of his budget.

他们走进一间大商场，琳琅满目的冬季服装让小雨目不暇接。

They walked into a large shopping mall where the dazzling array of winter clothing left Xiao Yu dazzled.

可是，李明却有些失望，因为价格比他预想的要高。

However, Li Ming felt a bit disappointed because the prices were higher than he expected.

他开始担心，自己的预算是否能买到足够暖和的衣服。

He began to worry whether his budget would be enough to buy warm clothes.

"别担心，我们再多找找，说不定能找到好东西呢！"小雨鼓励地说。

"Don't worry, let's keep looking. We might find something good!" Xiao Yu encouraged him.

两人继续走过几家店铺，看看这儿，翻翻那儿，但李明仍旧愁眉不展。

They continued walking through several stores, browsing and checking everywhere, but Li Ming still looked troubled.

"我们是不是应该去别的地方看看？"李明思索着。

"Should we check out other places?" Li Ming pondered.

就在这时，小雨拉了拉李明的袖子。

Just then, Xiao Yu tugged on Li Ming's sleeve.

"你看，那边的小店好像在打折！"

"Look, that little store over there seems to be having a sale!"

他们急忙走过去，那家店虽然不大，但橱窗上贴着大大的“清仓大甩卖”。

They hurried over. The store wasn't big, but the large sign on the window read "Clearance Sale."

"我们进去看看吧！"小雨兴奋地说。

"Let's go in and take a look!" Xiao Yu said excitedly.

店里人不多，挂着的外套样式经典，摸起来也很厚实。

There weren't many people inside, and the coats hanging there had classic designs and felt very sturdy.

李明挑选了一件试穿，感觉非常合身。

Li Ming picked one to try on, and it fitted perfectly.

价格也在他的预算之内，小雨则自告奋勇地上前与店主交流，最终成功地为李明争取到了一些折扣。

The price was within his budget, and Xiao Yu enthusiastically stepped forward to negotiate with the store owner, eventually managing to get a discount for Li Ming.

李明高兴地买下了这件外套，脸上露出了满意的笑容。

Delighted, Li Ming bought the coat, a satisfied smile on his face.

他们走出小店，王府井街上仍旧是一片热闹的景象，月光柔和地洒在街上。

As they left the small store, Wangfujing Street remained bustling, with moonlight gently illuminating the road.

"谢谢你，小雨，今天真是谢谢你帮我找到这件好外套。"李明诚恳地说道。

"Thank you, Xiao Yu, really, thank you for helping me find this nice coat today," Li Ming said sincerely.

此时，他意识到小雨那种精力充沛的性格，有时真的能带来意想不到的惊喜。

At this moment, he realized that Xiao Yu's energetic personality could indeed bring unexpected surprises.

"不用谢！以后有什么需要，我都很乐意帮忙。"小雨也微笑着。

"No need to thank me! If you ever need anything, I'm always happy to help," Xiao Yu smiled back.

两人继续走在大街上，秋日的灯笼在他们身后摇曳，

The two continued walking on the street, with autumn lanterns swaying behind them.

李明心中变得暖和起来，甚至比那件新买的外套还要温暖。

Li Ming felt warmth in his heart, even more so than from the newly purchased coat.
