Chapter 984 (Page 1/2)

After Huo Yining left, Song Jingjing hurriedly stuffed the candies and biscuits that the salesperson had already packed into the woven bag, as if she was afraid that they would be snatched away.

Lin Man, who was standing not far away, saw all of this and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

She watched Song Jingjing hurriedly stuffing things into the woven bag, and couldn't help feeling a little amused. Why did she look so much like a nouveau riche?

Song Jingjing finally stuffed all the things into the woven bag, then dragged it and walked to Lin Man with difficulty.

She forced a smile on her face and said to Lin Man, "Sister-in-law, are you here to buy New Year's goods too?"

Lin Man just glanced at her indifferently and replied casually: "Yeah. You are here too."

"I've been here several times, and I still have some left to buy. I'll come back tomorrow morning."

"Oh, then you're busy."

Seeing that Lin Man was so cold towards her and didn't seem to want to talk to her any more, Song Jingjing tactfully pulled the woven bag and turned away.

As soon as Song Jingjing left, Huo Yining couldn't wait to say to Lin Man, "Mom, did you see that? Second Aunt has started using woven bags to buy New Year's goods!

She just said she'd been here several times. It seems they're celebrating the New Year at home this year and buying a lot of stuff! Second Aunt must have made a lot of money this year!"

Lin Man smiled slightly and explained, "Celebrating the New Year is not a simple matter. It requires a lot of preparations and the cost is naturally not small.

Your second aunt chose to celebrate the New Year at home this year, so naturally there are more things to buy, so it is normal for her to make a few more trips.

Besides, your second uncle is busy with work and has no time to go shopping with her. If he were free, your second aunt wouldn't have to make so many trips."

Huo Yining nodded and then asked, "Mom, can we buy all the New Year's goods for our family today? That way we don't have to come again tomorrow, right?"

Lin Man replied, "Don't worry, son, I've already bought most of what I needed a few days ago.

Today we are here mainly to pick out some candies, cookies and snacks that you like."

"Well, I'll choose carefully later."

After Lin Man and her son finished buying candies and biscuits at the counter, they did not leave immediately. Instead, they took the child upstairs and picked out a piece of Jinhua ham.

Snow fluttered outside, and the mother and son went downstairs with their bags full of New Year's goods, ready to go home.

As soon as he entered the house, Huo Yining couldn't wait to throw down what he was holding and ran straight to his grandfather's room.

"Grandpa, do you know? When I went to buy New Year's goods with my mother today, I met a very interesting person!" Huo Yining said excitedly to his grandfather as soon as he entered the door.

Huo Li looked at his grandson with a smile and asked curiously, "Oh? Who did you run into?"

"Grandpa, we ran into Second Aunt today!" Huo Yining said excitedly. "She was carrying a urea bag and was frantically shopping for New Year's goods in the department store! Candy, biscuits, chocolate, she bought eight or nine kilograms of each!"

Huo Li was surprised when he heard this. "Why did she buy so many New Year's goods this year?"

Huo Yining blinked and said thoughtfully, "Grandpa, I think Second Aunt may have made a lot of money this year, and she may have to start giving gifts to the elders!

Look, I see her clothes and shoes are all brand new!"
