I don't know when Song Yongren will come to the capital again, so I must bring back more things this time.
Song Lili happily dragged Song Fang to buy things—some for Song Jianshe, some for the children, and of course, some for Xia Niu.
Anyway, she packed four bundles of odds and ends, two of which contained clothes, and the rest contained food and toys.
Then, Song Lili felt that there were still many things that hadn't been packed, but there were already so many.
Song Yongren was very annoyed by the ever-increasing burden. Every day he would say, "Stop pretending, there's too much to carry," but Song Lili just wouldn't listen and continued to do things her own way.
By the time Song Yongren left, the bundle had multiplied to five. Looking at the bundles scattered all over the floor, Song Yongren looked helplessly at Song Lili.
"There are so many things, I can't carry them all. Lili, I'll just take one, and leave the rest."
Song Lili shook her head, "No, these are all for you. How can we leave them behind? We won't need them!"
The clothes were all bought according to each person's size, so no one else could fit into them. Of course, even if they could fit, she wouldn't agree to keep them.
The food was specially prepared for the family, and they can buy it if they want to eat it, so why keep it?
This time, it was Song Yongren chasing after Song Lili, trying to persuade her, but Song Lili just ignored him.
This made everyone else laugh again; the father and daughter were just too funny.
Finally, after much persuasion, Song Yongren took three bundles containing food, but he couldn't carry the two bundles containing clothes, nor did he want to.
Song Lili glanced at Song Yongren's hands, which were covered in things, and finally agreed.
After careful selection, she kept two for Song Yongren to carry with him, and planned to mail the rest back.
Since Song Yongren can't get it anyway, we might as well spend more money.
After Song Lili resolved her issue, Song Fang brought over a lot more things. The two sisters' belongings were piled up like a small mountain, leaving Song Yongren feeling helpless yet gratified, and also a little embarrassed!
The awkwardness stems from feeling embarrassed that one is eating and taking things in front of Zhang Shengtian. Is this really a good thing?
Why doesn't Lili have any consideration for others?
Although she's the one who earns the money, a family can't live as it pleases; some compromises are necessary.
And Fangfang too, why is she joining in? Lili has prepared enough, why is she preparing too?
However, no matter how much he complained, it couldn't compare to his concern for his two daughters. Song Yongren swallowed it all and picked and chose, thinking of taking some of Fangfang's as well.
Those are the children's heartfelt wishes; we can't just throw them away like that.
However, Song Lili stopped Song Yongren, saying, "Forget it, just take those two bundles. You don't need to take anything else."
Everyone was surprised. Just a moment ago, Song Lili seemed to want Song Yongren to take everything. Why did she suddenly change like this?
Has Song Lili changed? Actually, no.
She just suddenly realized that Song Yongren and the others still had a long way to go after getting off the train, so she decided to give up.
Let Song Yongren have an easier journey. The rest of the things have been packed and mailed.
Since it's going to be mailed anyway, what difference does it make if there's a little more or a little less? That's why I told Song Yongren not to bring any.
Song Yongren is only carrying food, which he can finish on the bus. He'll only have one bag when he gets home.
"Then... take these foods." Song Fang thought for a moment and handed one of the bundles to Song Yongren, who took it.
Everything else was left in the alley, only the food was brought along.
Li Weiguo and his wife weren't doing much better either; they had several large and small bags, each carrying a full load in their hands.
Seeing them, Zhang Shengtian couldn't help but laugh, "It seems that these kids are all the same, wishing they could move the entire capital back to you."
However, this is a good thing. It's always better for children to be filial than to be heartless and cruel.
"Hey, I told you not to bring it, but you insisted. Look at all this, it's tiring!"
"I only managed to pack less because I kept reminding them, otherwise there would have been even more." Li Weiguo looked on with a headache.
Looking at Song Yongren, he only had two bundles, far fewer than the others. I couldn't help but say to Daqing and Yangmei, "Look at Lili, she didn't prepare much."
After he said that, everyone laughed, which puzzled Li Weiguo. What funny thing did he say?
Seeing Li Weiguo's clueless expression, the others turned around and revealed the small mountain that had been placed on the ground. Li Weiguo's eyes widened in shock, his mouth agape, and he was speechless.
"This...this is way too exaggerated!"
"Uncle, are you still saying Lili wasn't prepared?" Wang Daming looked at Li Weiguo with a hint of schadenfreude.
"Oh dear, it seems I still haven't had enough. Well, I feel better now." Li Weiguo said, somewhat startled, after letting out a sigh of relief.
"Haha, Dad, now you know, right?" Yang Mei laughed. She had said before that Lili would prepare a lot, but Li Weiguo wouldn't listen.
Now that's settled, seeing is believing, so you should believe it now, right?
"Okay, okay, take all of these?" Looking at all that stuff, Li Weiguo felt overwhelmed.
"No need, my boss will only take these two." Song Lili pointed to the two bundles on the ground. "You don't need to take the others."
"You're not bringing it?" Li Weiguo asked in surprise.
Song Lili shook her head again, "No, it's just that it's too heavy and troublesome to carry, so I just sent it back."
Everyone was speechless. So that's what you were planning. No wonder you were suddenly so agreeable.
Song Fang finally understood why Song Lili had stopped her earlier. Mailing was indeed more reliable; how much could one person earn?
Song Fang secretly gave Song Lili a thumbs up, saying that Jue Mei's idea was absolutely brilliant.
Then, without any further questions in her mind, she simply stared at Li Weiguo in astonishment.
"Send...send it back?" Looking at all that stuff, how much will it cost to send it back?
"Big Brother, this is a good idea. Why don't you put your things down too? Just take the food, and I'll send the rest back to you." Daqing agreed from the side.
This made Li Weiguo immediately shake his head, "No need, no need, we'll take it back ourselves, we can carry it."
I will never complain about having too much stuff again, for fear of making him put it down and then seeing even more stuff when he gets home.
"Hehe..." Seeing Li Weiguo's frightened expression, some people couldn't help but laugh out loud, including Song Lili.
Song Yongren opened his mouth, wanting to take it too, and said there was no need to send it, but before he could speak, Song Lili said it directly.
"Even if you take it now, I'm still going to send it to you. What do you think we should do?"
