Chapter 124 First Prize
Grandma Wen and Grandpa Wen usually live a frugal life. Wen Yu plans to lie to them that the card was won in a "mall lottery" so that they won't feel so bad when using the card.
Wen Yu told Song Shinian his thoughts.
Song Shinian made an "OK" gesture towards Wen Yu: "I understand."
It has to be said that Wen Yu was more thoughtful than he imagined.
Song Shinian's original plan was to have someone give him some cash and stuff it inside his quilt before leaving, so that Grandma Wen would find the money when she tidied the quilt.
He originally thought his idea was good, but now that he saw Wen Yu bought a "membership card", he realized how stupid his previous idea was.
Grandma Wen and Grandpa Wen have been frugal all their lives, and they will most likely continue to save this money for Wen Yu. However, it would be different if they exchanged it for a shopping mall membership card. This membership card can only be used for shopping in the mall. If Grandma Wen and Grandpa Wen don't use it, the money in it will be wasted...
According to Grandpa Wen and Grandma Wen's personalities, they will definitely not let this money go to waste. They will go shopping more frequently and buy more things...
Song Shinian once again felt grateful for Wen Yu's thoughtfulness in his heart.
"You remember what I said, don't you?"
Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to Grandma Wen's house, Wen Yu looked in the direction of Song Shinian again.
"Remember."
Song Shinian sighed helplessly and repeated, "Today, we went to the mall and happened to run into their lucky draw. You were lucky enough to win the first prize, a 'membership card'. The card has 11,000 yuan in it. You can use it to buy things in the mall, and the money on the card will automatically expire after one year."
"right."
Wen Yu nodded with satisfaction.
"It will automatically expire after one year" was added by Wen Yu. He was worried that Grandpa Wen and Grandma Wen would be reluctant to spend money, so he added a "one year" deadline. As long as he told them that the money would expire if not spent, they would become generous when buying things.
"And the massage chair..."
Wen Yu was still a little worried.
"I won the massage chair in a lottery at the mall..."
Song Shinian sighed helplessly: "Are you sure Grandma Wen will believe what we say?"
"It all depends on our acting skills."
Wen Yu blinked at Song Shinian and said, "I remember your acting skills were very, very good. This little thing shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"
Wen Yu has said so much, what else can Song Shinian say?
He could only say "OK" helplessly and lovingly.
…
Wen Yu checked the lines with Song Shinian, and after confirming that they were correct, they pushed open the door.
"Grandma! We're back!"
Grandma Wen was sitting in the yard, knitting a sweater for Wen Yu.
In the winter, when she has less free time, Grandma Wen would take advantage of this time to knit clothes for Wen Yu, including hats, scarves, sweaters...
Grandma Wen had originally planned to give these clothes to Wen Yu during the Chinese New Year, but unfortunately Wen Yu did not go home for the Chinese New Year last year.
This time, Wen Yu finally took the initiative to go home, so Grandma Wen found the clothes again and planned to let Wen Yu take them back tomorrow.
"Xiao Yu'er, come and see the sweater I knitted for you."
When Grandma Wen saw Wen Yu, her eyes were filled with kind smiles.
"nice."
Wen Yu was generous with his praise.
Grandma Wen was once again beaming with joy at Wen Yu's praise.
"Grandma, look what goodies I brought you."
Wen Yu spoke mysteriously to Grandma Wen.
"What?"
Grandma Wen looked at Wen Yu curiously.
“Dangdangdang…”
Wen Yu took out the membership card like a magic trick and handed it to Grandma Wen: "I participated in the shopping mall's lucky draw today and won the first prize."
"First prize?"
Grandma Wen was stunned for two seconds: "Is it the mall in town?"
There is only one big shopping mall near their home.
Grandma Wen had been there several times to buy things for Wen Yu, and she remembered that the things there were more expensive.
"right."
Wen Yu nodded.
He then began to vividly describe today's lucky draw: "Xiao Nian'er and I were at the mall, and we happened to see a lucky draw going on. Anyone who spent 79 yuan could enter. We tried it out, and guess what happened?"
Wen Yu had a smile on his face while he was speaking.
Grandma Wen was infected by his joyful mood, and a smile appeared on her face. She cooperated and asked, "What's the matter?"
"I won the first prize! Xiaonian won the special prize!"
Grandma Wen likes to call her "Xiao Nian'er", so Wen Yu also follows her and calls her "Xiao Nian'er", which makes it easier for Grandma Wen to understand.
"First prize? Special prize?"
Grandma Wen repeated Wen Yu's words blankly: "What is it?"
"The first prize is a shopping mall membership card."
Wen Yu smiled and explained, "As long as you have this membership card, you don't have to pay cash when you buy things. You can just swipe the card."
"so good?"
Grandma Wen knew about the "membership card". When she went to the mall before, the clerk tried to sell it to her, but she thought it was too troublesome and didn't get it.
"Uh-huh."
Wen Yu nodded and continued, "Not only that, there's 11,000 yuan in this membership card."
Grandma Wen's eyes widened in shock: "...How much?"
"Eleven thousand dollars."
Wen Yu explained calmly, "There's only one first prize, and the money is topped up by the mall itself. The validity period is one year. If you don't use the money after one year, you can't use it anymore."
Grandma Wen looked at Wen Yu suspiciously.
She set her eyes on Song Shinian who was not far away: "Xiao Nian'er, is this true or false?"
Grandma Wen has a particularly good impression of Song Shinian.
Song Shinian looked like a very well-behaved and sensible child. Wen Yu always liked to lie when she was a child, so compared to what "Wen Yu" said, Grandma Wen was more willing to believe what Song Shinian said.
"real."
Facing Grandma Wen's question, Song Shinian added calmly, "Actually, there's only one special prize, and the store clerk said we're both incredibly lucky."
Grandma Wen glanced at Wen Yu and then at Song Shinian.
Seeing that there was no trace of "lying" on their faces, he breathed a sigh of relief: "That's really great..."
It took Grandma Wen a minute to accept this fact.
"that……"
Wen Yu coughed twice and said, "The massage chair is in the car. Xiao Nian and I will move it in for you."
Wen Yu is now saying "Little New Year" more and more easily.
Song Shinian also gradually got used to this name.
"good."
Grandma Wen nodded.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that Xiao Yu'er had become much more mature and sensible...
Is life outside too hard?
Thinking of this, Grandma Wen began to feel sorry for Wen Yu again.
