Chapter 457 Buying things at the wholesale market
Chapter 457 Buying things at the wholesale market
Soon, Qin Yunzhou and Xu Suiyi brought the children to the largest department store in Fengyang County.
This was Jinbao's first time visiting such a grand department store. Seeing so many wonderful things, he looked a little timid, holding tightly to Qin Yunzhou's clothes, and couldn't help but look around.
Although Baozhu was a bit timid, she was the only child in her family and was pampered by her parents. She often visited this department store, so she wasn't particularly curious about her surroundings.
Needless to say, Yan Yan and Yao Yao had lived in a big city like Beijing before, and had been to all kinds of department stores, let alone the department stores in this small county town.
The things here are nowhere near as fresh and fashionable as those in Beijing; some of the clothes are even outdated and still on display.
There are also various snacks and candies here, but the variety isn't as extensive as in big cities.
Yao Yao was quite looking forward to it, and couldn't help humming a little tune along the way, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Today, both my parents were free to spend time with them, and we also had a cousin and a paternal cousin with us, making it a very lively day.
This was her first time going out to play with so many people.
Although his older brother usually keeps him company, his brother is too quiet and doesn't like to talk, so he's not fun at all.
However, upon arriving at the largest department store in Fengyang County, a hint of disappointment flashed in Yao Yao's eyes.
Ah, is this the biggest department store? But it doesn't feel very big at all.
They didn't have many pretty clothes or dresses, let alone delicious food or fun things to do.
Although she was very disappointed, her beautiful, watery almond-shaped eyes seemed less bright and clear, and even a little misty.
However, Yao Yao didn't say it out loud; she was just clearly not as excited as before.
This is what my mother taught me: to be polite.
Although Yao Yao is rather carefree, she is actually a very thoughtful, obedient, and well-behaved child. Even though she clung to her mother the whole way, she didn't forget to care about her cousin Bao Zhu and her cousin Jin Bao, and talked to them as much as possible.
"Sister Baozhu, Brother Jinbao, what do you want to eat later? I'll buy it for you, it's on me, I have money."
Yao Yao turned her head and patted the small military green crossbody bag hanging on her body, straightened her chest and raised her chin.
"This money is all from my own savings and earnings; it's enough for us to have a good meal today."
"By the way, Dad, Mom, brother, what do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you."
"I'll let you in on a secret, but don't tell anyone else, I brought all the money I've saved over the years, it'll be more than enough."
Yao Yao winked at everyone, raised her hand in a shushing gesture, and secretly whispered something in a low voice.
"Why did you bring everything? You don't need to pay today. Your dad brought the money. With him here, it's not your turn to pay. Let your dad pay."
Xu Sui glanced at her daughter's small handbag and couldn't help but smile.
The army green crossbody bag isn't very big, but it's bulging, a style suitable for children around five or six years old.
If you didn't tell me, you probably wouldn't guess that this small child's handbag was full of money.
Yao Yao glanced at her own father, then leaned closer to Xu Sui, thinking she was speaking quietly, but everyone could hear her.
"Forget it, I'm richer than Dad."
"Let's keep Dad's little bit of money."
Don't think she doesn't know that her father hands over all his monthly salary and subsidies to her mother, keeping only a little pocket money for himself. If anything happens and he doesn't have enough pocket money, he has to ask his mother for more.
She had been curious about how much pocket money her father received each month, only to find out that it was just five yuan a month.
This amount of money is less than the amount of money she and her brother saved from their mother.
According to my mother, the father offered the 5 yuan on his own initiative. My mother wanted to increase his allowance, but he disagreed.
So the poorest person in the whole family wasn't the two children, but the father.
Xu Sui immediately understood what the child meant. She couldn't help but smile, her eyes crinkling, and looked up at Qin Yunzhou.
"Since Yao Yao has money, let her pay."
Qin Yunzhou's expression remained unchanged, without any change in emotion. He glanced at his daughter's fair and delicate face, which he thought was being very quiet.
Here, she is very similar to one's own wife, making one hesitant to say anything harsh.
However, this girl's personality isn't as good as her own wife's; she's usually quite mischievous.
Whenever he's home and has free time, she'll act cute and clingy, wanting to ride on his shoulders and pestering him to buy him this and that, squeezing every last penny out of his allowance.
He didn't spoil his child unconditionally. Although his daughter was young, she was very good at math and also very good at making money.
At only five or six years old, he already knows to go to Xu Sui to learn how to make money, such as helping Xu Sui with accounting at their machinery factory and helping out in their finance department.
To be honest, this kid may be young, but he's absolutely talented in this area. Even Old Zhang from the finance department of the machinery factory is praising him for his abilities, saying he's almost on par with those college graduates majoring in accounting.
Seeing that her daughter indeed had talent in this area, Xu Sui didn't restrict her. Instead, she often took her to the finance department to learn and help out, and even gave her a part-time job.
We pay Yao Yao based on how much work she does.
Sure enough, in just one or two months, this kid earned more than 20 yuan in part-time work by helping out at the factory whenever he had free time.
There's also Yan Yan. He has excellent drawing skills and great talent. Last time, he helped catch a few human traffickers at the train station and received a reward from the police and the train station. He got a total of thirty yuan and a big red certificate.
Including the New Year's money given to the two children each year, the siblings have quite a bit of savings.
He's much richer than his father.
Normally, Yao Yao is very frugal, so it's rare to see her so generous. Of course, we have to make her bleed a lot.
Since the children agreed and their father didn't object, Xu Sui didn't say anything more. She took the children's hands and beckoned them to walk forward.
"Alright, let's go."
Yao Yao ran enthusiastically to Bao Zhu's side, took Bao Zhu's little hand, and then took Jin Bao's little hand with her other hand.
"Sister Baozhu, Brother Jinbao, what do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you."
"I'll buy you whatever you want to eat. Don't worry about not having enough money; my dad's here for you."
Qin Yunzhou: "..."
