Chapter 367 You Gave Too Much Money
Seeing that Huang Jiaqi was a little full, Chen Haoming said to her after paying the bill.
"Why don't we go for a walk nearby before going back? This will help digestion..."
"Okay, let's go for a walk. It's been a long time since I went out for a walk in Bincheng at night."
Whenever she has free time, she stays in the store, either working or studying.
It is also because of this that Zhao Jiaying is about to get married, but she doesn’t even have a boyfriend.
It’s not because she’s not pretty enough, nor because no one pursues her, but because she puts all her energy into work and study.
Although it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, there were still a lot of people on the street.
"Jia Qi, I feel like you work really hard. But you're a girl, so you don't have to work so hard."
Huang Jiaqi answered him: "I have to work hard. I am different from you. My family is not rich. So if I want to live a good life, I have to work harder than others. And I also hope that through my own efforts, I can build a career and make my parents' lives better."
Over the years, Huang Jiaqi has never revealed her inner thoughts to others. Chen Haoming is the first one.
Chen Haoming looked at the strong and hardworking girl in front of him and admired her very much.
If you want something, you have to work hard to get it. Instead of being like some women who just rely on and ask for things from others.
As they walked, they unknowingly arrived at a central square.
There are a lot of people here, some are dating couples, and some are middle-aged women dancing in the square.
They originally wanted to find a place to sit down and rest for a while, when suddenly a little girl about ten years old came up to them carrying a small basket of flowers.
The little girl said to Chen Haoming in a polite and sweet voice: "Handsome brother, do you want to buy some flowers for your girlfriend? Look at the sisters around you, their boyfriends give them flowers."
Huang Jiaqi knew that the little girl had misunderstood and was about to explain.
Then I heard Chen Haoming say, "Little sister, how much do you sell this flower for?"
The little girl replied, "Originally I wanted to sell them for ten yuan each, but now it's a little late and I want to sell them quickly so I can go home with my grandma. I'll sell them to you for seven yuan each..."
The little girl was actually quite pitiful. She spent the whole day selling here and only made seven or eight cents.
Chen Haoming looked at the little girl's flower basket and there were probably more than twenty flowers in it.
So he said, "Okay, then I want all your flowers."
When the little girl heard Chen Haoming say he wanted them all, she asked in disbelief, "Brother, are you serious? You bought them all."
Chen Haoming nodded: "Of course it's true."
The little girl happily took out all the flowers from the basket and counted them.
Then he said, "There are 26 flowers here, each one costs 7 yuan, so the total is 182 yuan. I'll charge you an integer of 180 yuan."
Chen Haoming took out five hundred-yuan bills from his wallet and handed them to the little girl.
The little girl took the money and saw that there was 500 yuan. She said, "Brother, you gave too much."
He took out three hundred yuan from it and took out a twenty-yuan note from his pocket and wanted to give it back to Chen Haoming.
Chen Haoming said: "Here you go, just take it..."
The little girl refused: "No, I should charge you what you deserve. Besides, I've already made nearly a hundred dollars from you by selling flowers here, how can I take more of your money?"
Chen Haoming admired the little girl's honesty.
Asked: "Little sister, have you had dinner?"
The little girl shook her head.
She just wanted to sell the flowers quickly and then go out to eat with her grandma.
Chen Haoming handed the flowers he had just bought to Huang Jiaqi.
"Jiaqi, do you like these flowers?"
Chen Haoming deliberately gave Huang Jiaqi a look.
Huang Jiaqi immediately understood and said: "This flower is so beautiful, I like it very much..."
Chen Haoming bought these flowers specially for her, how could she not like them!
Then, Chen Haoming turned to the little girl and said, "Look, my sister likes your flowers very much. In fact, I should thank you. If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have known to send flowers to my sister. So to thank you, I want to treat you to a meal. But my sister and I just had a meal and we really can't eat any more, so I can only give you money and let you go to dinner with grandma."
"But……"
"Don't refuse. Look at your grandma who has been waiting there for so long. She must be starving. So now, your most important thing is to take grandma to eat, okay?"
Chen Haoming said a lot of words earnestly.
In fact, when the little girl was selling flowers to them, he had already noticed that there was an old lady not far away who was always looking at the little girl.
And the little girl would look back at her from time to time and nod to her.
The grandparents and grandchildren would come out to sell flowers to make money during this festival. I guess their lives are not particularly easy.
So Chen Haoming just wanted to do his best to help them.
