But as far as he knew, Mrs. Ye didn't usually give Qingtian much pocket money.
The money in her pocket might not even add up to a penny.
But it’s good enough that the child has this kind of heart.
Meng Yu didn't want to disappoint Qingtian, so he stopped and said, "Then we have to go back and get some money!"
He had followed Mr. Cen for so many years and had managed to save some money.
Meng Yu thought about going back to get the banknotes. When the time comes, as long as he can afford the thing Qingtian chooses, he will buy it for her and give it to the old man.
Unexpectedly, Qingtian patted the small purse hanging on his waist and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Meng, you don't have to go back to get the money. I brought it with me."
Meng Yu looked at Qingtian's waist. The small purse looked quite bulging, but it must be full of copper coins, right?
"Okay, let's go over and take a look."
If the money is not enough then...
Meng Yu thought to himself, fortunately he had the Cen Mansion's badge with him. If he left it as a deposit at the store, he could at least get some credit, and then he could secretly send it to the other party to make up for it.
To Meng Yu's surprise, as soon as the two of them arrived at the door of Linglong Pavilion, the waiter came to greet them with a smile on his face.
"Miss Sunny, it's been a while since you came.
"Are you here to see Xiang Lei, or to buy something?
"Please come in and go to the private room on the second floor.
"I'll go get Xiang Lei right away. Tell me what you want to see or buy, and I'll get it for you to look at slowly."
Meng Yu was frightened by the waiter's eager attitude.
Are all the guys at Linglong Pavilion so enthusiastic?
Why did he always hear that the guys in this kind of store were all so arrogant?
Meng Yu lifted Qingtian off Feixue. The waiter immediately reached out and took the reins, helping him tie the horse to the hitching post outside the door.
Then the waiter invited them upstairs and shouted to the back, "Boss, Miss Qingtian is here."
There were not many people in the store at the moment. Manager Gao was not at the counter, but in the side wing, lying on a rocking chair to rest. When he heard this, he quickly got up, straightened his clothes and ran out.
"Miss Qingtian, you haven't been to the store for a while. Xiang Lei was still thinking about you a few days ago!"
Manager Gao took over the task of entertaining Qingtian and sent his waiter to call Ye Xianglei over.
"Uncle, how are you doing in the store recently?" Qingtian actually started to greet Manager Gao like a little adult.
"Good, very good!" Shopkeeper Gao said with a smile, "Mr. Liao likes him very much. Now that no one is in the store, I'm taking him to the Treasure House to teach him how to identify antiques.
"You know, it's not far away. We can get back in just a few steps."
Manager Gao invited Qingtian and Meng Yu to sit in the private room upstairs, and asked someone to serve Qingtian a fruit plate and snacks.
He didn't dare give her tea, so he sent someone to the street to buy a bowl of milk.
After a while, Shopkeeper Gao finally remembered to ask, "Why did Miss Qingtian come here today..."
Qingtian took off his purse from his waist and poured all the silver coins inside onto the table. At a glance, there were at least a dozen taels of silver.
"I want to buy a gift for my great-grandfather's birthday. This is all I have. Manager Gao, please help me see if there's anything suitable."
"Miss Qingtian, this..." Meng Yu was stunned by Qingtian's sudden action.
How can you buy things like this? You will be ripped off!
But the silver had already been poured out, everyone had seen it, and there was no way to take it back.
Meng Yu swallowed his words before he could finish them, feeling uncomfortable. The expression on his face was indescribable.
Shopkeeper Gao could see what Meng Yu was thinking, and he quickly said, "Don't worry, young man. The owner of our shop is the young master of the Qin Mansion, and this is not the first time Miss Qingtian has come here.
“Also, Miss Sunny’s uncle has been working as an apprentice in our shop for almost half a year.
"We can't fool anyone but Miss Sunny."
Meng Yu's thoughts were revealed, and he scratched the back of his head embarrassedly for a moment.
Fortunately, Ye Xianglei came back in time and helped him resolve the embarrassment.
"Qingtian, you're here." Ye Xianglei came running back as soon as he heard the news. "How long has it been since you last came to see me, you heartless little bastard? Have you forgotten about me, your uncle?"
"I didn't forget!" Qingtian said quickly, "I was just afraid of disturbing your studies!"
Although she said this, Qingtian was actually a little guilty. After all, she really hadn't thought much about Ye Xianglei recently.
"Okay, little liar, you have learned to lie to me, right?" Ye Xianglei reached out and gently pinched Qingtian's nose.
"Uncle, I'm here!" Qingtian quickly changed the subject, trying to get away with it. "Can you help me pick out a suitable gift for my elder's birthday?"
Upon hearing this, Manager Gao looked at Liao Zhenjiang who had followed Ye Xianglei back, wanting to know if Ye Xianglei could do it.
Ye Xianglei turned to look at his master with some uncertainty.
Liao Zhenjiang nodded and said, "Xiang Lei, you have been learning from me for such a long time. Today is a good opportunity to see what skills you have learned.
"As long as it doesn't cost more than Miss Sunny's money, you can take whatever you want from the store and the warehouse out back. Go!"
After getting his master's permission, Ye Xianglei immediately became excited.
He first took out a scale and weighed the grain and loose change on the table. "The total is twenty-one or fourteen cents."
After weighing the silver, Ye Xianglei did not rush to look for things, but asked Qingtian in detail about the situation and preferences of the person celebrating the birthday.
Liao Zhenjiang watched from the side and couldn't help but stroke his beard and nod repeatedly. The corners of his mouth, which were usually tense, also showed signs of turning up.
