Speaking exercise

We started work in February, because we are food industry, our shop open everyday. I bought a new laptop. I wanted to buy a new laptop long ago, because my old one is too big and too heavy. When I use it, I have to stay at the desk, cannot in the sofa or in bed, because it can work shot time without electric. Though it’s old and work slow, but it’s not broke up.

At the beginning of last month, I told myself I have to buy a new one. I went to Huawei shop, the staff told me no laptop. Because of the virus, student have to face to face, so they bought a lot of computers. Most factories didn’t  resume work, their laptops is not in stock. Yesterday when I went here, I talked to my husband, just have a look, maybe they will have. They happen to have the type which I wanted to buy.  I was very happy, I can use it everywhere I want to use it, on the sofa, on the desk.

My husband and I are co-workers. I’m in charge of purchasing in the company. I bought face masks for my company. For myself, I only try to buy in TB. At the beginning of the virus spread, it’s hard to buy.
