Everyone exchanged a few simple greetings at the gate of the military compound. Grandma Lin repeatedly reminded everyone to be careful and come back early, then she watched everyone leave reluctantly.

Wen Yu, Zhang Yao, Lin Zhiyue and Mu Yushang walked slowly along the street. Along the way, everyone tacitly did not mention going to the supply and marketing cooperative, but walked towards the bustling department store tacitly.

The morning sun shines softly on the street, and the breeze blows gently, bringing a hint of coolness.

Mu Yushang and Lin Zhiyue walked in front, like good friends who had not seen each other for a long time, arm in arm, looking curiously at the shops on the street, sharing little interesting things in each other's lives, and crisp laughter echoed in the air from time to time.

Wen Yu and Zhang Yao followed slowly behind, sometimes talking in low voices, sometimes looking at the two children with a smile, their eyes full of love.

Soon, a grand department store appeared before everyone.

The entrance of the mall is bustling with people coming and going, and colorful banners fluttering in the wind, as if warmly welcoming every customer.

Walking into the mall, bright lights illuminate every corner, and a wide variety of goods are neatly displayed, making you dazzled.

Wen Yu and Zhang Yao instantly turned on "shopping mode", their eyes full of excitement and anticipation.

They took the two girls straight to the women's clothing area. Wen Yu shuttled between the hangers, searching for clothes that would suit Lin Zhiyue with a keen eye. She picked up a light blue floral dress and tried it on Lin Zhiyue. After looking at it carefully, she nodded with satisfaction: "Yueyue, the color of this dress suits you very well, and the style is fresh too. It will definitely look good on you."

At the same time, Zhang Yao was not idle either. She picked out a white chiffon shirt and paired it with a dark blue pleated skirt. She held up the clothes and waved to Mu Yuchang: "Yuchang, take a look at this outfit that your mother picked for you. It's especially suitable for a girl of your age."

Lin Zhiyue and Mu Yushang looked at the two mothers' enthusiastic expressions, smiled at each other, and took the clothes.

Lin Zhiyue and Mu Yushang looked at the clothes carefully selected by the mothers, and became more and more satisfied.

Lin Zhiyue turned around with a bright smile on her face and said to Wen Yu, "Mom, this one you picked is really beautiful. Let's take it. I like it very much."

Mu Yuchang also nodded vigorously, excitedly pulling Zhang Yao's hand and saying, "Mom, you have a great taste. This dress is tailor-made for me. I love it so much. Let's take it."

At this moment, Wen Yu's eyes were attracted by a light green braid on the hanger not far away.

Her eyes lit up instantly, and she walked over quickly, gently took off the skirt, raised her hands and came to Lin Zhiyue, saying expectantly: "My daughter, look at this light green braid, the color is fresh and elegant, and the style is also very unique. Doesn't it suit you very well? As soon as I saw it, I felt that you would look very beautiful in it."

Lin Zhiyue looked in the direction of her mother's finger, and saw that the braid was glowing softly under the light, with a delicate neckline and cuffs, and fine pleats. Every detail exuded a unique charm.

She looked at it carefully for a while, nodded constantly, her eyes full of love: "Well, Mom, it's really good. I like this color and style very much."

Seeing that her daughter was also satisfied, Wen Yu smiled and walked towards the salesperson, and asked politely, "Comrade, how much is this braid?"

The salesperson smiled and replied, "Hello, this is the last skirt left. It's 38 yuan."

At that time, 38 yuan was not a small amount of money, but when Wen Yu heard the price, she was just stunned for a moment, and then her mind emerged with the beautiful look of Lin Zhiyue wearing this skirt. She did not hesitate at all and said to the salesperson directly: "Okay, comrade, then please help me pack it."

The salesperson folded the bragi skillfully, put it carefully into the bag, and handed it to Wen Yu.

Wen Yu took the bag, walked to Lin Zhiyue, patted her shoulder gently, and said softly: "My daughter, mom hopes that you can be happy and beautiful every day."

Lin Zhiyue took the bag, her heart full of emotion. She hugged Wen Yu tightly and said softly, "Thank you, Mom. I love you so much."

After buying clothes, Wen Yu was still not satisfied. She gently pulled Zhang Yao's arm and said with expectation in her eyes: "Yao, let's go to the shoe store and have a look. Yueyue just came back and is still in need of a pair of decent shoes. I want to pick a pair for her."

Zhang Yao smiled and nodded, "Okay, let's go, maybe we can find someone who's particularly suitable."

The two of them took Lin Zhiyue and Mu Yushang and followed the signs in the mall to the shoe counter.

There are so many kinds of shoes here, with various styles, it's dizzying.

Wen Yu's eyes moved among the many shoes, and suddenly, a pair of exquisite little leather shoes caught her eye.

This pair of small leather shoes is shiny black all over, with a few tiny rhinestones inlaid on the uppers. They sparkle charmingly under the light. The simple yet elegant design makes Wen Yu's heart instantly moved.

She quickly asked the salesperson to take the pair of small leather shoes, held them in her hands and examined them carefully, while looking at them, she asked: "Comrade, how much are these shoes?"

The salesperson introduced enthusiastically: "This pair of small leather shoes is our new style, the quality is very good, 68 yuan."

Wen Yu knew that this price was not cheap, but when she thought of how Lin Zhiyue would look wearing this pair of beautiful shoes, she took out the money from her bag without hesitation and said to the salesperson, "Okay, this is it. Please give me the invoice."

After paying, Wen Yu carried the bag of shoes with a satisfied smile on her face.

She turned to Lin Zhiyue and said, "Girl, try these shoes later, they will definitely look good."

Lin Zhiyue looked at her mother, her heart deeply moved, and nodded slightly.

Then, Wen Yu enthusiastically led everyone to the watch counter.

Her eyes wandered among the various watches, thinking about choosing a watch for Lin Zhiyue that was both practical and beautiful.

Just as she was about to ask, Lin Zhiyue gently pulled the corner of her clothes and whispered, "Mom, I have a watch, you don't have to buy me one."

Wen Yu was stunned for a moment, then reacted, smiled and touched Lin Zhiyue's head and said: "Look at my memory, I almost forgot. Okay, since you have it, then we won't buy it."

Although she gave up the plan to buy a watch, Wen Yu was still in a good mood.

She looked at Lin Zhiyue, Mu Yushang and her good friend Zhang Yao beside her, and felt that the time they spent shopping and choosing items together was so precious and beautiful.
