You Xinyao teased Liu Jingze familiarly, "Mr. Liu, what do you mean by saying Tiantian looks good in a skirt? It's obviously Tiantian wearing anything, but you still say it looks good. Come on, Tiantian, take a look at this one. Pair it with a pair of ankle boots, it's fashionable and neat."
You Xinyao picked up a skirt and handed it to Su Tiantian.
This loose-fitting khaki straight skirt is crafted from comfortable cotton and is perfect for fall. The loose, round neckline makes it easy to put on and take off. The waist features an adjustable drawstring, allowing pregnant women to adjust the fit to their belly size. The skirt reaches just above the knee and features a delicate lace trim at the hem.
Su Tiantian's eyes lit up: "Sister Xinyao has good taste, I like this skirt."
Liu Jingze was also looking at these maternity dresses. After a while, he picked up two dresses.
A pink woolen suspender skirt, paired with a solid white crew-neck knitted top. The skirt reaches mid-calf and has a wide hem, creating a graceful and elegant look. It also features two large pockets on each side, making it both practical and stylish.
This is a loose-fitting light gray hooded sweatshirt dress made from soft, thickened cotton for warmth and comfort. The hood adds a casual touch, and the hood features a cute pom-pom embellishment. The dress, which hits just below the knee, features a cute, vibrant cartoon pattern. It has two large pockets on each side, and the cuffs and hem are ribbed to keep out drafts.
The skirts Liu Jingze chose all had big pockets, as he thought it would be convenient for Su Tiantian to put snacks in them.
The salesperson immediately said, "Ms. Liu has excellent taste. These two maternity dresses are one ladylike and one casual. They will definitely look good on Mrs. Liu."
Su Tiantian said, "I'll try these two as well."
Grandma Lu pointed to a dark brown skirt and said, "Tiantian, try this one too."
Su Tiantian said: "Okay."
Grandma Lu chose a vintage-style dark brown corduroy maternity dress. The dress has an A-line silhouette with a square neckline and matching lace trim, creating a sweet and elegant look. The sleeves are long and trimmed with matching lace, and the waist has a loose tie that can be adjusted to the size of the abdomen.
In the end, Su Tiantian bought two two-piece maternity suits, five maternity skirts, a cotton coat, a sweater, a knitted cardigan, and other baby products. She really came back with a lot of stuff.
You Xinyao said, "I'll have someone send these things to the Liu family. You guys can choose the crib, and I'll have someone send it over when the time comes."
Liu Jingze said: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
It’s actually quite nice to take grandma to the maternity and baby store.
Grandma Lu was quite strong when she was young. After all, as a widow living with her son, she had to be strong. Later, her son often went out, so she had to be strong.
But she has one advantage: she listens to the opinions of her son and grandson, and values her grandson's wife. Therefore, there are no arguments about buying things such as what must be bought and what must not be bought. Moreover, she is willing to spend money on her great-grandson, and does not mind the price. What she cares about is quality.
After they left, the salesperson who greeted Su Tiantian and the others said to You Xinyao, "Miss You, Mrs. Liu and her friends are very quick with their purchases. For example, they bought five maternity dresses right away. She's about to give birth, right? It would be a waste to buy too many."
You Xinyao said, "Tiantian isn't even seven months pregnant yet. I hope she doesn't give birth so soon. The Liu family isn't short of money and they value children, so how could they not be happy? After the baby is born, I'll buy more. In short, I'll treat them well."
The salesperson said, “I understand.”
Another salesperson (the one who had been serving the arguing couple) said, "I often see mothers and sisters shopping in maternity and baby stores, but this is the first time I've seen a grandmother shopping there. This old lady Liu is very up-to-date and willing to spend money. What's remarkable is that she didn't start an argument with her grandson's wife."
You Xinyao said, "Grandma Liu has confidence because her children and grandchildren are both ambitious and filial. Also, don't underestimate Mrs. Liu. She doesn't rely on her husband, and buying these things is effortless. She's capable and able to earn money, and she got pregnant with twins shortly after getting married. How could her family look down on her?"
On the other side, Su Tiantian sat in the car, a little silent.
Liu Jingze held her hand and asked, "Tiantian, what's wrong? Are you too tired?"
Su Tiantian shook her head and said with a hint of emotion, "Sister Xinyao just told me that people often quarrel in the store over what kind of baby products to buy. There are husbands and wives, mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, sisters-in-law and pregnant women, and even fathers-in-law and daughters-in-law. I didn't expect to see such a scene so soon."
Grandma Lu's eyes were wise and deep: "For some people, 288 yuan for a maternity dress is indeed expensive. It's not easy to make money. Anyway, buy things based on your own wallet."
Su Tiantian pretended to complain: "It's so expensive, and you still asked me to buy so many skirts."
Grandma Lu said proudly, "Those skirts do look good on you. Buy two more to change into. It makes your mother happy, and your baby will look even better. It's not like we can't afford them."
Liu Jingze said: "Grandma is right, and not every skirt is 288 yuan. My sister-in-law even gave us a discount."
Su Tiantian asked: "How much discount is it?"
Liu Jingze said, "30% off. The checkout list will be sent to you soon. Tiantian, I won't be like that man who complained that his pregnant wife's purchases were too expensive."
This discount is really not small.
Su Tiantian really found it funny: "Brother Jing, the problem is that sometimes I don't want my husband to buy expensive things. Just buy something suitable, like the little clothes grandma bought. They are really beautiful and comfortable."
At this point, Grandma Lu was happy: "I was worried that you would think the clothes I bought were old-fashioned, but those small clothes are all pure cotton. I think they are better than the onesies I saw at the maternity and baby store just now."
Su Tiantian agreed: "Grandma, the two-piece suit you bought is good. It's convenient for changing diapers. But you'll have to buy new clothes soon. Xiuli said that children grow very fast, so they'll have to change a new batch of clothes very quickly."
Grandma Lu said cheerfully, "I'll buy it when the time comes. There's a store that sells really good baby products. The styles and colors may not be that fashionable, but the materials and craftsmanship are good. I'll take you there next time."
Su Tiantian said, "Grandma, I know which store it is. Mom said we should go there to buy a baby carrier. She said grandmothers need baby carriers, clothes, and a small blanket. She wants a red one. But you've already bought the baby carrier."
Granny Lu smiled even more contentedly: "Yes, your mother knows where to buy them. It doesn't matter if there are two extra straps. We can switch between them later."
The corners of Liu Jingze's lips couldn't help but rise. It was really nice to have a considerate wife. Having a caring grandmother made life even better.
