Liu Changqing said goodbye to the second trial team, then got on his bicycle and left with He Qunfang and Liu Fei.
Two bicycles traveled along a country road, a gentle breeze brushing against their faces, bringing a touch of coolness.
Sitting in the back seat, Liu Yue couldn't help but ask curiously, "Xingman, my aunt told me that someone recently introduced you to a blind date. How are things going?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Xingman's face immediately turned somewhat depressed. He sighed and said, "It's nothing, I'm not interested in her, let's not talk about it anymore, it's ruining my driving mood!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yue secretly chuckled in the back seat.
Along the way, everyone chatted and laughed, and soon they arrived at Wenshu Street.
The streets were bustling with people, shoulder to shoulder, creating a lively and vibrant atmosphere.
They parked their bicycles in front of a shop owned by an acquaintance.
"Uncle, Aunt, I'm going to the barbershop for a haircut," Liu Xingman said after parking his bicycle.
“Okay, you go ahead and do your thing, we’ll go buy some things too,” He Qunfang replied with a smile.
Then, Liu Yue pulled her toward the clothing store.
Liu Feng and Liu Fei followed behind, and the five of them disappeared into the bustling crowd.
He Qunfang and her children stopped frequently to look at the goods on the stall. They visited several clothing stores and carefully compared the styles and prices of the clothes.
In the end, He Qunfang carefully selected a new outfit for each child.
Liu Yue wore a pink cotton-padded jacket paired with light blue jeans; Liu Fei wore a brown jacket and black pants...
However, Liu Feng's gaze kept falling on his parents.
Watching them, dressed in worn-out clothes, bustling about in the crowd, he felt a surge of indescribable emotion.
He knew that his parents worked hard all year round for the family and for their children, and had hardly ever bought themselves any new clothes.
So, he and Liu Yue pushed He Qunfang and Liu Changqing into the largest clothing store again.
This time, their goal was to pick out some suitable clothes for their parents.
First, they had Liu Changqing try on a dark gray Zhongshan suit. The suit was well-tailored and had smooth lines. When Liu Changqing wore it, his mother, He Qunfang, couldn't help but be impressed and showed a satisfied smile.
Next, Liu Feng and Liu Yue picked out a red woolen coat for He Qunfang.
Although He Qunfang was initially hesitant, feeling that this style of clothing was more suitable for young women, she decided to give it a try after being persuaded by Liu Yue and the shop owner.
When He Qunfang put on the red woolen coat, she seemed to radiate a new glow.
This coat is not only brightly colored, but also stylish, and it fits He Qunfang's figure perfectly.
She stood in front of the mirror, looking at herself from left to right, and seemed very happy.
But when they saw the price tag on the clothes, they both shook their heads and waved their hands, their faces showing a resolute expression: "Too expensive, no, no."
The price of a Zhongshan suit is 160 yuan, while a woolen overcoat costs as much as 280 yuan, which is indeed a considerable expense for them.
Looking at his parents' insistence on not buying it, Liu Feng felt a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
He knew that even if his parents suddenly had some money, they would still be reluctant to spend it on him, which moved him and made him feel sorry for them at the same time.
So, after whispering a few words to Liu Yue, he turned to his parents and said, "Mom, Dad, my eldest sister, my youngest brother, and I want to go for a walk up ahead. We'll wait for you on the street in a bit."
He Qunfang and Liu Changqing still had a lot of New Year's goods to buy, so they agreed to the children's request, gave them a few words of advice, and then parted ways.
Liu Feng and his group turned around and went back to the clothing store they had just been in.
When the shop owner saw that it was a group of children returning, she didn't smile much. Her parents had tried on clothes for a long time but hadn't bought anything, which made her a little unhappy. She had a look on her face that said, "If you can't afford it, don't try it on."
Liu Feng had seen too many such faces in his previous life, so he didn't care much.
He walked straight up to the proprietress and said, "We'll take those two outfits we just tried on!"
Upon hearing this, the proprietress immediately put on a smiling face, quickly wrapped up the clothes, and waited for Liu Feng to pay.
Liu Feng discussed the price with her and got a slight discount.
Finally, he took out five brand-new bills and handed them to the proprietress, asking her to give him change.
The proprietress took the five brand-new RMB bills, and her smile became even brighter.
She also became more affectionate towards Liu Feng, constantly praising him for being filial and having good taste.
Liu Yue and Liu Fei stood aside, dumbfounded.
"Where did you get the money? Didn't you give it all to Mom?" Liu Yue asked repeatedly, puzzled.
"I kept some for myself!" Liu Feng smiled.
Liu Yue was the first to come to her senses. She blinked and then joked with Liu Feng, "Since you're so rich, you'll have to pay for anything your sister likes later!"
As she spoke, she winked playfully at Liu Feng, and Liu Fei looked at Liu Feng expectantly, hoping that he would agree.
"No problem, buy whatever you like!" Liu Feng agreed without hesitation, seeing their expectant eyes.
The proprietress next to them, watching the interaction between the three siblings, couldn't help but feel curious.
She looked at Liu Feng and wondered how this child, besides being good-looking, could have so much money.
She couldn't help but glance at Liu Feng a few more times, trying to figure out something.
Noticing the proprietress's gaze, Liu Feng didn't pay any attention. He casually asked her for a large snakeskin bag to carry things later.
They continued shopping, and when they reached the Post Office Bank, Liu Feng went in alone. After some persuasion, he successfully exchanged the two thousand yuan for small denomination bills of ten, five, and one yuan from the counter.
These small bills were stacked together, forming a large, thick stack.
As he was leaving, Liu Feng slipped the large wad of money into his pocket when no one was looking, actually storing it in his magic gourd space.
Back on the street, Liu Feng said generously to Liu Yue and Liu Fei, "Buy whatever you like, don't worry about the money!"
His words surprised Liu Yue and Liu Fei, who initially didn't quite believe him.
But when they saw Liu Feng pull out a large wad of money from his pocket, they believed it was real.
However, Liu Yue and Liu Fei were both children from poor families, and they learned to be frugal from a young age.
Despite seeing that Liu Feng had money, they did not make any unnecessary purchases.
Liu Yue saw many things she liked, but couldn't bear to buy them. She would just touch and look at them, then shake her head and say no.
Liu Feng saw this and felt very uncomfortable.
He thought to himself that now that he had been reborn, he had to meet the needs of his siblings and parents.
He didn't want them to be like they were in their previous life, where every time they went to the market they just watched the excitement and then went home hungry without buying anything.
