Chapter 455 Children's Gifts
Everyone’s notice has arrived, and we’ve made an appointment to celebrate together at Suihua Building on our day off.
Although Pengfei School is not as good as Xiaoting and Dongzhe, Zhuang Hualin is already very satisfied.
She knew that if it weren't for everyone in this room, Pengfei wouldn't be where he is today.
She didn't know how to repay him, so she took Pengfei's hand and said:
"You have to respect the people in this room today as much as you do us. You have to respect them the same way you respect us."
Pengfei nodded:
"Mom, I know everything. I've kept it in mind."
Dongzhe and Xiaoting greeted him at the door, so he patted Zhuang Hualin's hand and ran over.
The three of them didn't know what to do, and the adults were chatting affectionately, just like a harmonious big family.
At this time, the three children came back.
Pengfei and Dongzhe were responsible for carrying the paper bags, and Xiaoting was responsible for delivering the gifts.
Each mother received a pearl necklace, and each father received a wallet.
"Where did you get so much money?" Zhuang Hualin was surprised when he saw the gift in his hand and knew it was not cheap.
"Every penny of our earnings is given to Xiaoting to save for us..."
"You three have saved so much money!" Song Ying was also quite surprised.
Huang Ling took out a small mirror from her bag, and Zhou Huaiyi helped her hold it. She held the pearl necklace around her neck and gestured, saying to Song Ying:
"That's definitely impossible! Xiaoting usually gets a lot of bonuses, and they gave Xiaoting the extra money they had from selling eggs before, but they didn't dare spend it. And look at these two sons, they've gotten a lot darker since the exams, and you can hardly find them at night unless they're smiling. They must have been selling eggs again!"
Song Ying suddenly realized: "I thought they were sunburned while playing basketball!"
Zhuang Hualin was stunned when he heard this and murmured, "Pour the eggs!"
"They have a big business. They bring more than a dozen boys from the countryside to sell eggs in the city, and they also collect and sell waste." Huang Ling introduced to Zhuang Hualin.
Zhuang Hualin finally understood why Huang Ling said Pengfei had a talent for business. It turned out he had actually done it!
The two looked at each other, and Dongzhe said:
"Not this time. This time we took the high-end route. Actually, we earned it, and Brother Hongbin also contributed to it."
Now it was Zhuang Hualin's turn to suddenly realize: "Could it be those broken radios?"
The two nodded.
"Your brother Hongbin is about to vomit from repairing it. It turns out that you want to sell it for money!" Zhuang Hualin shook his head helplessly.
"Brother Hongbin didn't ask for our repair fees. He didn't ask for them before we sold them, and he didn't ask for them after we sold them." Dongzhe said gratefully.
Hong Bin smiled innocently, "Why would I want it? It's not a big deal, especially since I'm buying gifts for my aunt and uncle!"
Zhuang Hualin wanted to say something, but when she saw Huang Ling and Song Ying putting on the necklaces, she kept praising the children for their good taste. Her eyes met Huang Ling's. Huang Ling looked at her meaningfully, and she swallowed the words she wanted to say.
The children were very happy because the elders liked the gifts they gave.
The food hadn't arrived yet. The children found it difficult to sit still, so they went to feed the fish and turtles as usual.
Hongbin followed Zhu Xiu Yu to her office to pack some things and took them home to put in her suitcase.
The two of them are going to Shanghai tomorrow. Zhu Xiu Yu wants to go and see Hong Bin's unit first, and then go over the shop they had selected before. If there is no problem, they will decide on it. They may need to stay for two more days.
Huang Ling smiled and said that she was the same as herself now. Once she went out, it was impossible for her to do only one thing.
Huang Ling finally shortlisted three locations for site selection, and Zhu Xiu Yu chose one of them.
Because Huang Ling only knows about the flow of people, customers, and dishes, but the actual operation of a restaurant, such as water, electricity, oil smoke, fuel, etc., has its own rules, and Zhu Xiu Yu has to confirm it. It is not possible to have good flow of people but these supporting facilities are not in place, which will affect the business.
Zhu Xiuyu does not need to bring the deposit, she can directly collect it at the Shanghai branch of Yuesheng Department Store, which also saves her the unsafe journey of carrying the money to Shanghai.
Huang Ling looked in the mirror and asked Zhou Huaiyi to help her put on the necklace. Just as she was about to put the mirror away, Song Ying snatched it away and took a look:
"Our Xiaoting has good taste... I don't know how much money she spent, and whether she will be cheated..."
"Don't worry, it's a good thing that these three of them haven't cheated the store out of its business!" Huang Ling was very confident.
"Hahaha, that's true!" Song Ying thought about it and it made sense.
Zhuang Hualin looked at the two of them somewhat helplessly.
"Hua Lin, they are truly filial and their money was earned in a legitimate way. Let's not spoil their fun. Don't worry, they're not usually the kind of people who spend money lavishly. You said they've put so much effort into it, and you're still nagging them at this moment. How sad they must be!"
Besides, this is their ability. Look, who else's child can compare to ours, right?"
"That's right! Other people's children are still spending their family's money! Our Tunan and Hongbin have never spent our family's money since they went to college, and they even give money back home! They are so capable." Song Ying patted Zhuang Hualin's hand, gently took the necklace from her hand, and helped her put it on.
After hearing what Huang Ling said, Zhuang Hualin felt relieved. She was glad that she understood Huang Ling's eyes and didn't say anything more.
After a while, Xiaoting came back alone with a smile on her face.
"Where did Xiaoting and the others go to make trouble again?" Song Ying asked when she saw Xiaoting coming back alone.
"Auntie, Lin Dongzhe didn't see the turtle, so he insisted on looking for it in the rockery. He ended up stepping into the pond. Brother Pengfei went to pull him out, but he slipped and fell in too..."
After Xiaoting finished speaking, everyone laughed.
Song Ying sighed helplessly: "Why do Tunan and Hongbin seem to have become adults so quickly after going to college? This one in our family... never grows up! Oh..."
"Xiaoting, where is he now?" Huang Ling asked with a smile.
"Aunt Zhu took them to change clothes. She has new work clothes for the employees. As long as their shirts are not wet, they just need to change their pants and shoes." Xiaoting replied.
After a while, they came back, wearing pants and cloth shoes with the classic Tengyun pattern of Suihualou.
The two of them first poked their heads in through the door, afraid of being scolded.
Dongzhe took the responsibility first: "Blame me, Pengfei stepped into the water because he saved me, aunt, please don't scold him."
Everyone couldn't help laughing.
"It's okay, as long as you're not hurt! Come in!" Zhuang Hualin waved his hand, and the two of them entered the house.
Dongzhe didn't dare to pass by Song Ying, so he slipped towards the fathers, and Pengfei followed him.
"Come here." Huang Ling waved at him.
The two of them slid along the other side of the wall and moved closer to Huang Ling.
Anyway, Dongzhe knew that whether Huang Ling would hit him or not depended on the situation, but Song Ying would really hit him.
Huang Ling took out three boxes from her bag and handed them to three people:
"On behalf of the elders, I congratulate you!"
Dongzhe's eyes lit up and he quickly opened the box in his hand to see that it contained the mechanical watch he had been dreaming of.
The other two people's gifts were also the same.
"I wanted to buy you a mechanical watch a long time ago, but your mom said you were too impulsive and she was afraid you would break it, so she said she would wait until you went to college to buy it for you."
"Fortunately, you gave it to me now. If you had given it to me just now, I would have to take a bath!" Song Ying glared at her son.
"No, no, Mom, no! Thank you, Mom and Dad!" Dongzhe put the watch on his wrist and held it high while thanking them.
Xiaoting received an extra gift than Dongzhe and Pengfei. Song Ying called her home and gave it to her quietly. It was a gold necklace, which was now tucked into her collar.
Huang Ling said that she would wear the jewelry Aunt Song gave her and take it off when she went to college. Aunt Song would be happy when she wore it.
