After a big shopping spree, several people gathered at the door of the department store, each holding large and small bags.
They looked at each other in bewilderment. What else could they do with the item they had bought with their own money? Just take it home.
It was not a good idea to always stand at the door, blocking others from entering and exiting, so a few people moved the things to the corner first and then distributed them according to the situation.
Zhang Jidi bought the most. She was used to being the head of the household and taking care of everything. She took into account all the big and small items in the house, plus the interpersonal relationships, and there was so much that she couldn't even hold it all with both hands.
At this time, Yin Gan was particularly good at reading people's expressions and quickly shared most of the work with her.
Not only was he being attentive, he also smiled flatteringly and said, "Auntie really loves her family. Don't tire yourself out by buying so many things."
Huang He, who was standing nearby, watched the whole thing and shook his head silently. It seems that all sons-in-law behave like this before they call their mothers?
He thought about his own wife, who had to move supplies for his father-in-law in the middle of winter, making several trips back and forth until she was sweating all over. She was as hardworking and capable as a donkey.
The reward is just a few shy glances from my wife.
Look at this kid again, he is exactly the same as me back then.
After recalling the past, Huang He returned to reality. He could neither steal the belongings of Yin Gan's mother-in-law nor help Xiang Lili, the unmarried girl. These were all opportunities for Yin Gan to show his abilities.
I had to change my target and wanted to share some of the burden with Xiang Mianmian.
Xiang Mianmian bought little, so she prepared a gift for Teacher Guo first. After all, it was Teacher Guo who gave her the opportunity to study in Shanghai, so she had to express her gratitude.
I bought shin guards, wrist guards and elbow guards. In order to concentrate on repairing them, Teacher Guo always bumps and bruises these parts, so it’s better to protect them.
The ones I give to my family are some small things. Although they are small in size, they are expensive.
But she didn't buy a radio. She went to the counter and asked about it. She was told that it cost 480 yuan even with a ticket. It was obviously a robbery. Why would she buy it?
Isn't that 58 yuan radio in the system mall a good deal? Why would you go all the way to bring one home?
Xiang Mianmian was afraid of being discovered, so she even asked for a large cardboard box to store small items. When the time comes, she can take out the radio she smuggled from the system mall. Perfect~
As for the radio tickets and foreign exchange coupons, she had already sold them at the counter, and they were worth 120 yuan.
Xiang Mianmian made a lot of money on this trip to Shanghai and was very satisfied. She bought things for her family without hesitation and always chose the biggest and most expensive brands in the category.
There is a reason why it is expensive. Nowadays, the materials used are genuine and many things can be used for decades.
After packing up the huge pile of spoils they had bought, the two men carried the heavy loads and walked briskly in front, while the three women followed behind with the small items.
I didn’t feel the time passing while I was shopping, and by the time I got back to the guesthouse, it was already dark.
Everyone went to bed and planned to go to Shanghai the next day to have some fun, just like traveling and seeing the scenery that others were tired of seeing.
Sleep soundly and wake up early the next morning.
Several people were not familiar with Shanghai, and there were many scenic spots here, so they asked the owner of the guesthouse and went to see some famous attractions.
Xiang Mianmian was just curious about whether there was an iconic landmark building on the Bund - the Oriental Pearl Tower. When she arrived at the Bund, she turned her head left and right, but could not see the hundreds of meters high tower.
Construction on this landmark building only began in the 1990s, so it certainly wouldn't exist now.
The Pudong area opposite is still an undeveloped barren land with only scattered fishing households and boats, which is in sharp contrast to the prosperity of Shanghai.
Xiang Mianmian is so attracted by these places, it’s all about money!
She decided that when she had the chance, she would buy some land and build a house. In twenty years, she would be a landlady.
It makes me happy just thinking about it.
In one day, the five of them traveled to several tourist attractions on the Big Braid Bus and even took photos at the Bund!
Some cunning people noticed a business opportunity and used cameras to take photos of tourists on the Bund. The photos could be received on the same day they were taken, and the fee was relatively expensive, 1 yuan per photo.
But business was good, and Xiang Mianmian had to wait in line for several groups of people before it was their turn to take pictures.
They had already agreed while queuing that they would take a group photo of the five of them first, with Huang He and Zhang Jidi each taking one.
Then there are the separate photos: a solo photo of Huang He, a mother-daughter photo of Zhang Jidi and his two daughters, and in addition to the solo photo, Yin Gan also shamelessly took a photo with Xiang Lili.
When the photographer was taking pictures, he asked everyone to smile. There were no fancy poses. Basically, everyone stood straight or hugged each other.
The photo turned out to be black and white, but it’s worth the 1 yuan as it serves as a souvenir.
Zhang Jidi touched the mother and daughter photos again and again, feeling very happy.
She just hopes that her daughter will be well and live without any illness until she is 99. No one can bear the same thing as Xiang Lili again. She hopes that everything will develop in a good direction.
We were tired from playing, and by the third day everyone got up late, so breakfast became breakfast and lunch.
Fortunately, I bought a ticket for the afternoon train, so it doesn’t matter if I get off late.
After they got up, they gathered their things and packed them up to go home.
Zhang Jidi even bought a suitcase specifically for his purchases. The outside of the suitcase was made of high-grade brown artificial leather, with hidden locks on both sides and a visible lock in the middle.
When you open it, you will find a light pink cloth lining with a small cloth pocket and an elastic strap to secure items. There are also four metal feet under the side of the box.
The exquisite workmanship naturally makes it very expensive, fifty yuan, which is almost Xiang Lili's monthly salary.
