Jun Qingng said with a hint of exasperation, "Tongtong, sit still and don’t cause any trouble. I’ll help you find them in a minute."
After getting Tongtong fitted for her shoes, Jun Qingng, who was wearing white cartoon socks, finally tried on her own pair.
A perfect fit, and very comfortable.
"Do they look good?"
Jun Qingng took a few steps in the shoes.
" too, Grandma, look!" Tongtong, wearing her new shoes, carefully stepped onto the floor, her face begging for praise.
Lin Qiu nodded, looking them over. "Very nice. They look great on both of you, and the quality looks solid, too."
"When you get ho, rember to have Liu’er wear his, too. That way you’ll really look like a family."
"Okay." Jun Qingng’s face turned a little red.
She had never even worn matching couple’s outfits, let alone family ones.
’I’m so excited!’
"Do you have the Patrick style in a larger size? It’s for the kid’s dad."
The young clerk asked nonchalantly, "What size does your husband wear?"
"44," Jun Qingng said.
Jiang Liu wore a size 44. Before entering the store, Jun Qingng had already confird it with him over WeChat, and had also taken the opportunity to ask for his clothing sizes.
After buying Jiang Liu’s shoes, Jun Qingng turned her head and glanced around the luxuriously decorated shop.
"Excuse , where is the children’s clothing section?"
"It’s on the other side."
Jun Qingng went to the children’s section and pulled out a few articles of clothing to look them over.
Besides buying for Tongtong, she also wanted to buy so clothes for Jiang Liu.
’I want to dress my boyfriend up to look super handso!’
But after looking for a long ti, Jun Qingng, with her picky taste, didn’t find anything she wanted.
"Just the shoes, then. How much are they?"
"One thousand four hundred sixty-four."
Lin Qiu stepped forward and paid.
The price was certainly not cheap. If Lin Qiu were buying for herself, she definitely wouldn’t have been willing.
But when it ca to her little ones, no price was too high.
Besides, her son was making good money now.
Without realizing it, the old couple felt much more confident.
Soon, the shoes were all boxed up.
The three pairs featured SpongeBob, Patrick, and Crab Boss. The shoes themselves were white with raised cartoon characters printed on them.
Even the insoles were designed after the cartoon characters.
The four of them visited a few children’s clothing stores one after another.
There was a wide variety of styles.
Holding Tongtong’s hand, Jun Qingng picked out two cute dresses, two children’s tank tops, three pairs of durable jeans, and so small underwear.
’How embarrassing.’
Tongtong needed to wear underwear too.
Everything at Wanda was very expensive, but the quality and styles were quite nice. The few children’s items totaled over two thousand.
Jiang Dahai was just about to pay.
But Jun Qingng had already held out her phone’s QR code and paid.
With the BEEP of the paynt confirmation, Lin Qiu and Jiang Dahai imdiately grew anxious.
"Why did you pay? You don’t have to, child. I can pay for you all."
"We earn money just to spend it on you three, oh my."
’We agreed to take our daughter-in-law out to buy clothes,’ they thought.
’She hasn’t even bought anything for herself, and she’s already spent over two thousand.’
The old couple was frantic with worry.
Jun Qingng brushed her side-swept bangs aside and smiled shyly. "Auntie, it’s alright. Honestly, the reason I earn money is to buy things for Tongtong and Jiang Liu."
"I don’t usually have much to spend money on, so you don’t have to worry."
Lin Qiu and Jiang Dahai were moved.
Their daughter-in-law was so sensible, so sensible it made their hearts ache for her.
At the sa ti, the old couple grew even more dissatisfied with their own good-for-nothing son.
’He must be blind! Such a wonderful girl, how could you reject her?’
’It’s infuriating!’
Tongtong hugged the new clothes, so happy she was on the verge of tears. "Teacher Qingng, you’re too good to Tongtong! I’ve never had so many new clothes, WAH. When you’re old, Tongtong will definitely be good to you."
"Of course! When your teacher is ninety and can’t walk, you’ll have to help ."
"Then Tongtong will be... huh? How old will I be?"
"Over sixty, probably."
"We’ll both be old, WAH! You can help instead, Teacher Qingng."
Jun Qingng lightly flicked her forehead.
"You lazybones!"
"Hehe."
Jun Qingng carried the clothes for Tongtong and took her little hand in hers.
"Let’s go, Auntie, Uncle. It’s after ten. We should go look at so clothes for Jiang Liu."
"Daughter, let’s buy for you first. It doesn’t matter if that stinky brat of mine gets new clothes or not."
Jiang Dahai was eager to buy his daughter-in-law so nice clothes.
"It’s fine. I have plenty of clothes, so I’m not in a hurry to buy any. The n’s clothing store is right next door; we can just pop in and take a look."
Unable to dissuade Jun Qingng, the two had no choice but to agree.
"Alright, then."
Twenty minutes later, Jun Qingng had personally picked out a few pairs of stylish, loose-fitting jeans and two cartoon T-shirts for Jiang Liu.
Five items in total, and they weren’t cheap.
Two thousand nine hundred.
Lin Qiu hurriedly took out her phone.
But her phone wasn’t as fast as Jun Qingng’s reflexes.
Jun Qingng once again beat her to the punch and paid.
"You silly girl, your Auntie has money!"
"It’s alright, Auntie. It’s already paid for."
Jun Qingng just smiled.
She loved spending money on Jiang Liu.
As long as it was clothes she bought for him, seeing him wear them for a day would make her happy for a day.
After shopping for a while longer, Jun Qingng bought two pairs of ankle socks for Tongtong and a pair of sneakers for Jiang Dahai.
She just refused to buy any clothes for herself.
This made the two elders and the little cutie extrely anxious.
"Teacher Qingng, please buy sothing, I’m begging you! Tongtong wants to see you in new clothes."
"Daughter, whatever you want, Auntie will buy it for you. I have money, really, more than I can spend."
Jun Qingng shook her head and refused. "No thank you, Auntie, Uncle. Why don’t you sit down for a bit? I’m going to buy a bottle of water."
A short while later, Jun Qingng ca back, carrying a large bag.
It was a blue and white crossover dress, stylish and chic.
Upon seeing the dress, Lin Qiu was moved.
She had really liked it just now, but since the price was too high, she hadn’t said a word.
She never expected her daughter-in-law would turn around and buy it for her.
"Auntie, quickly, take it and try it on. See if it fits."
Jun Qingng took out the dress and held it up against Lin Qiu.
Lin Qiu pretended to be upset.
"Take it back, take it back. Auntie really doesn’t need it. I have dresses at ho. It’s so expensive! Co on, I’ll go with you to return it."
She couldn’t bear to spend her daughter-in-law’s money.
"Return it? Why? It’s fine. Didn’t you say before that we’re family, Auntie? What’s so hard to accept about family buying clothes for each other? Go on, go try it on, Auntie."
Under Jun Qingng’s sweet persuasion, Lin Qiu was coaxed into happily accepting.
"Alright, then I’ll go try it on!"
They shopped for a while longer.
Lin Qiu tried several tis to buy clothes for Jun Qingng, but was always rejected with the excuse that she didn’t like them.
"Auntie, it’s almost twelve o’clock. Jiang Liu is probably busy. Let’s go back."
"Go back?"
Tongtong’s little face fell. "Teacher Qingng, we haven’t bought anything for you yet."
’I really want to see Dad soon, but Teacher Qingng is important too!’
Jun Qingng pointed to the shoe box she was carrying. "Didn’t you buy a pair of shoes? Let’s go."
"But we all got shoes. Teacher Qingng didn’t buy anything just for herself."
"Let’s look a little more, daughter. Jiang Liu can manage by himself," Jiang Dahai coaxed.
Jun Qingng said, "So other ti. It’s not like this is the only ti we’ll ever go to the mall. Next ti, I want to co with Jiang Liu."
’She also wanted to pick out clothes for Jiang Liu, preferably the kind where she could watch him try them on in the fitting room.’
Hearing Jun Qingng say this, the old couple imdiately understood.
’That’s right. We should have let our son bring her. The girl would definitely be happier that way.’
Tongtong still didn’t want to leave, grabbing onto the escalator railing with an unhappy look on her face!
Jun Qingng knelt down and said, "Be good, let’s go ho now, okay?"
"No!"
"Your dad’s buns should be ready right about now. Freshly stead buns are the most delicious."
At the thought of her dad’s delicious food, Tongtong’s little tummy let out an inopportune GROWL. She blushed and said, "Then let’s hurry back and eat?"
"You little glutton!"
Soon, they left Wanda and the four of them headed to the parking lot to get the car.
The sun was even hotter now.
After just a few steps, the sun made Tongtong so dazed she felt disoriented.
The little one had delicate skin and couldn’t take much sun.
Tongtong gritted her teeth and endured. She was almost a big kid in the senior class, after all.
Jun Qingng secretly used a shopping bag to shield Tongtong from the sun.
"Huh, it’s cooler now?"
Lin Qiu nodded in gratification.
’This girl is definitely a thoughtful one.’
’If my son marries her, won’t he be blessed for life!’
Wanda wasn’t very far from Yangzhai Street.
In less than ten minutes, the four of them drove back to the front of the shop.
The storefront was bustling with people.
It was very lively!
Back in the shop, the front hall was empty.
Jiang Liu was in the back kitchen, plating a dish.
He was precisely slicing the pink tuna, its delicate texture like a work of art.
He was very excited right now.
Because, just a mont ago, the fourth delicacy had appeared.
It was another purple-quality item, and the page showed a bowl of soup.
The illustration was very detailed, and it contained many mushroom-like things.
It wasn’t clear exactly what kind of delicacy it was.
Jiang Liu guessed it was probably so kind of soup.
Unfortunately...
