When they passed Jinma Street, Yi Qingqing pointed it out to them.
Yi's father and mother, as well as Su Cai and Yi Zhigang, all looked curiously, and only turned their heads away when they could no longer see it.
"8751 Clothing Store? Why is it given such a strange name?" Yi Zhigang asked curiously.
"It's not strange at all. This name has a great meaning. It was chosen by me, your sister, and it was decided by voting," Yi Qingqing explained the meaning of the name.
"Now that you put it that way, it becomes much more interesting," Yi Zhigang said, "This is the first time I know that people with the surname Yi can be represented by '1'!"
"The store looks really busy," Su Cai said, "Business is pretty good!"
Yi Qingqing nodded: "There is a New Year promotion going on recently. If you buy one, you will get a chance to win a prize."
"My daughter is amazing. She is still studying and she can open a shop to make money." Zhao Xianglan became more and more proud as she looked at it. "Qingqing, take us to the shop this afternoon to have a look! This year we are celebrating the New Year in the capital. Your father and I will pay for new clothes for our family. I think your shop is good and it looks lively!"
"Good!" Yi Qingqing was very moved. It is good to have a child who is loved by his mother.
She has never been willing to buy ready-made clothes. She gets fabrics from the factory and makes her family's clothes all year round. Suddenly, she is so generous. Isn't it just to show her support? It's full of love for her!
She doesn't need to be polite to her own parents. If they are willing to support her, then they will support her. She now has an obvious source of income, so she just needs to show filial piety to them.
After a few more stops, they arrived at the station near Luoguxiang, and Yi Qingqing got off the bus with her family.
Ten minutes later, at the entrance of No. 45 Luoguxiang.
Yi Qingqing stopped and said, "We're here!"
The Yi family looked at the vermilion gate and the high courtyard wall in silence.
Isn't Xiaoyun an orphan? Such a big house, it looks like a wealthy family lives there.
Yi's father and mother were worried that Xiaoyun would have no support from her family, and when she got married to Qingqing, they would not be financially well off when they started their own family. That's why they decided that their son and daughter would support them together in their old age, and that the two of them would also help out.
Now it seems that they underestimated Xiaoyun.
Her father is not around and her mother doesn’t care about her, but she is capable and can buy such a big house while she is still studying!
But their Qingqing is not bad either, and now she has opened a shop. They should help out a little in the future. They can't let their precious daughter be looked down upon by others!
Yi Jianshe and Zhao Xianglan looked at each other and secretly decided to find an opportunity to inquire about how much the house cost. They also needed to use this as a reference to prepare more dowry for their daughter!
"Dad, Mom, what are you doing standing there? Come in!" Yi Qingqing opened the door and invited them in.
Only then did the Yi family follow in.
"Cat!" Xiaohui exclaimed when she saw the little fat cat jumping down from the wall.
"Meow~" Da Fu glanced at the biped cub and was forced to make a friendly call.
There's no way. A few days ago, its owner kept repeating three times a day that his family was coming and there were two children, so he asked it to be more friendly.
"This is Dafu, a kitten I picked up in the Forbidden City," Yi Qingqing said.
"Da Fu?" Zhao Xianglan lowered her head to look. "This cat... looks really plump. Seeing this cat, I believe that you are living a really good life in the capital."
Such a plump cat is rare nowadays.
Many people can’t even eat well, let alone raise cats and dogs!
Xiaohui squatted down and wanted to touch the cat, but Dafu quickly ran away.
It has already greeted people politely, but it doesn't want to sacrifice itself!
Except for the owner, no one can touch its precious fur!
When they reached the hanging flower gate, they saw three small courtyards connected in front and back, with a total of five rooms. Yi's father asked, "Are these all Xiaoyun's?"
It is big, but too long and not very regular.
"Well, this is the front yard. The three rooms in the middle are the back houses, where the male servants lived in the past. The one next to the gate is the sedan room, and the innermost one is the south study. But now they are empty and have not been used. Ayuan and I mainly move around in the main yard and the back yard," Yi Qingqing introduced them and led them into the main yard.
After crossing the door to the main courtyard, a larger and more spacious courtyard appeared.
Yi's father then realized that he had made a joke. The row of yards just now was nothing at all.
"Uncle, aunt, this is the room reserved for you two. Take a look and see if you like it. Do you need anything else?" Yun Guyuan brought their luggage to the main door of the east wing, and then opened the door of the room on the left: "Brother, sister-in-law, you stay in this room."
As soon as the two elders and Brother Yi and Sister-in-law entered the house, they were stunned by the furniture in the house: "Isn't this furniture a bit too eye-catching?"
Everyone knows that furniture like this looks good, but in recent years these things were the source of trouble!
"Don't worry, things are different now than before. This house and the furniture inside were sold to Ayuan by the original owner after he returned to the city. Now that the owner is back, there will be no problem with the furniture." Yi Qingqing quickly reassured them.
"Qingqing is right. Now that there are no more educated youth and no more people going to the countryside, we can trade freely. Things will only get better and better! These furniture are so beautiful, maybe they will appreciate in value in the future!" Su Cai is more open-minded and bold.
After Mom and Dad put all the things in the house, Yi Qingqing took them to see several rooms in the west wing.
She tidied up the study, library, pharmacy and drugstore yesterday, and put away all the things that shouldn't be there in her personal space.
Only some common and easy-to-edit sources are left here.
"This is obviously a place for intellectuals! There are so many books!" Su Cai took a quick glance at the titles of the books and began to admire her sister-in-law and her partner. She couldn't understand many of the titles and could only roughly guess that most of them were about medicine.
She would never be able to read so many books in her lifetime: "Xiaohui, Sisi, you should be more like your aunt and study hard!"
It is better for girls to read more books. The more books they read, the wider their paths will be.
Yi Qingqing knew that her two nieces were coming, so she went to the bookstore some time ago and bought a few sets of picture books. Now that she was reminded of this, she hurried to find the books for them.
"The two girls will be very happy now. They love reading picture books the most," said Yi Zhigang.
The two little girls can't read yet, but they love looking at the pictures in picture books. Su Cai often tells them stories from the picture books.
"Hurry up and thank your aunt!" Su Cai reminded her two daughters.
The two little girls smiled and said thank you in a crisp voice.
Yi Qingqing patted the two girls' heads and said, "You're welcome!"
"Aunt, is this the picture book you drew yourself?" Xiaohui asked.
Both she and Sisi raised their little heads and looked at her with sparkling eyes.
