173 How can I have pocket money~~
The next day was Fu Zhengtu's mid-year report meeting, and Su Taotao didn't have to attend.
Fu Zhengtu and Mo Gong went to the meeting, so she took the three children to tour the capital alone.
Seeing that the flag-raising ceremony was too early, they couldn't get up that early, so they gave up this project. After all, there was a long time to go.
Climbing the Great Wall in such a hot day was not a good choice. First of all, Su Taotao couldn't hold on, so this option was also given up.
After thinking about it, the best choice turned out to be to visit the department stores in the capital.
Although shopping malls across the country are now similar, at most the goods they supply are different, but the size of the capital's shopping malls and the number of goods they supply must be the largest in the country.
The three children looked at the dazzling array of goods, and then looked at their pitiful pocket money, and dared not buy anything.
"You can each choose a gift, but only one, and the price cannot exceed two yuan, go ahead." Since they were already here, they couldn't let the children go home disappointed, so Su Taotao simply fulfilled their little wish.
Mumu touched the pitiful one yuan and seventy cents in his pocket and shook his head: "Sister Taozi, I don't want it, let Ah Hang and Chen Chen choose, I'll just take a look."
Su Taotao smiled and asked him: "Really?"
Mumu forced his eyes away from the set of "A Barrel Gun" comic books that he liked very much.
Su Taotao sighed, "Before I left, Aunt Zhong left some money here for use, saying that it can be disposed of at her discretion. If you don't want it..."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Mumu's eyes lit up, "Sister Taozi, I want it. I want this comic book!"
In fact, the comic book only cost a few cents, and the money Mumu had on him was enough. In the past, he would have bought it without a second thought. It was not because he and Fu Yuanhang worked hard to chop coconuts for a whole morning and only earned fifty cents, but also because Su Taotao "showed special favor" to make so much money.
So, he was actually a little reluctant to spend it.
But he was still willing to use Miss Zhong Xiumei's money!
After all, Miss Zhong was a stingy person, and it was not easy to spend her money once!
Su Taotao didn't really want to spend a few cents from Aunt Zhong's 100 yuan, she just said that because Mumu liked it.
Chenchen actually wanted to buy chess, but this time he wanted to buy Go.
He actually already has many kinds of chess, but he wants to buy all the chess he hasn't seen to play with.
It seems that Fu Haochen's hobbies have been a little "distorted" by Fu Gong. He also likes small toys that children like, such as slingshots, shuttlecocks... These, he will play with occasionally.
But he is more keen on various machines, origami, chess pieces, calligraphy and painting... These are obviously not things he should like at his age.
These are Fu Gong's hobbies. It can only be said that genetics is really a great subject.
Before Fu Yuanhang chose what he wanted, Mumu couldn't wait to open the comic book he had just received.
The painting skills were good, but the simple black and white comic book with simple patterns was not very delicate. It was interesting when combined with the accompanying text below.
Mumu flipped through a few pages and said to Fu Yuanhang casually: "I think your painting is better, Ah Hang, I think if you draw comic books, many people will definitely scramble for them."
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. The listener was not Fu Yuanhang, but Su Taotao.
Fu Yuanhang never dared to think in that direction.
Fu Yuanhang didn't take it seriously: "You really dare to think."
But Su Taotao was different. She had "some connections" with the printing factory affiliated with the base. It was not impossible to print at her own expense. As long as there were good line drawings and stories, publishing comic books was completely possible.
It was just better to submit it to a publishing house.
"Mumu's idea is good. If Xiaohang is interested, he can use his spare time to tell the story in the form of comic books with pictures and texts, and then submit it to a publishing house so that more people can see it."
Fu Yuanhang was shocked and looked at Su Taotao in disbelief: "Sister-in-law, are you kidding?"
He? Write a story? Submit it to a publishing house? Then put it in a bookstore and let some people like Mumu who like to read comic books buy it?
Fu Yuanhang never dared to think of this in his dreams.
Su Taotao found it quite amusing to see the expression of pupils shaking:
"What's the big deal? Have you forgotten that you also designed the packaging bag for the coconut candy? Tomorrow I will take it and the coconut candy to promote it all over the country.
The same goes for picture books, as long as it is a good idea and a good work, it is worth promoting and should be carried forward."
Fu Yuanhang still couldn't imagine the scene of drawing a picture book and letting children all over the country buy it.
He took a deep breath to calm his disordered heartbeat, and shook his head: "That's different."
Su Taotao touched his head: "Just think about the idea, draw and write, and leave the rest to your sister-in-law."
Fu Yuanhang looked at her with his bright and beautiful eyes: "Then let me try?"
Su Taotao: "Well, don't feel pressured. If you are interested, just think of one. If you are not interested, forget it. It doesn't matter."
Fu Yuanhang nodded: "Okay."
The tired little Fu Haochen was still lying on his uncle's back. He poked his head out and asked Su Taotao: "Then what about me, mommy~~What can I do~~"
Su Taotao touched the child's head: "You just grow up well and be happy every day."
Chenchen nodded slowly: "Yeah~~I am very happy every day~~"
...
In the end, Fu Yuanhang didn't buy anything for himself, but used his own "small treasury" to buy a Dacron floral skirt for Zhou Linglan.
After he saw Li Xiangyang's mother wearing it, he was more determined to buy one for Zhou Linglan.
In fact, he also wanted to buy one for Su Taotao, but unfortunately Su Taotao didn't like it, so he had to give up.
Chen Chen also wanted to buy something for his grandmother, but he had no money, so he asked his mother: "Mom~~When can I have pocket money~~"
Su Taotao looked at him in surprise. She originally planned to wait until he was three years old, and give him one yuan pocket money every month like Fu Yuanhang.
Chenchen is smarter than other children of the same age. I don't worry that he will spend his pocket money recklessly or get cheated, so I can start giving him pocket money when he is three years old.
But I didn't expect that he wants it now.
"What does Chenchen need the pocket money for?" Su Taotao asked.
Chenchen said seriously: "Buy things~~for Mommy~~for Grandma~~"
Su Taotao: "Then maybe Chenchen needs to work part-time to earn money, and then buy things for Mommy and Grandma, which will be more meaningful."
Chenchen tilted his head and thought for a while: "But~~Mommy doesn't say~~Chenchen just needs to be happy~~Grow up~~
Buy things from Mommy and Grandma~~Chenchen is happier~~"
Su Taotao: "..." Who can tell her why a two-year-old child has such a strong logical thinking?
"Chenchen is still young, it's okay if you have this intention. If you need to buy something, just tell mom and mom will buy it for you."
Chenchen pouted and lay listlessly on the shoulder of his uncle: "Okay~~"
