Hearing Song Zhiyao's words, he quickly nodded.
Seeing how well-behaved her younger brother and sister were, Song Zhiyao discussed with them about going shopping together early tomorrow morning and asked them for some ideas.
Because they were going to their uncle's house, everyone in the Song family got up early and changed into new clothes. They were all good-looking.
After changing into new clothes and wearing a red scarf, which was knitted by Lai Yanling herself and features a popular pattern, everyone felt several times more energetic.
The four of them went out early in the morning, and everyone was wearing new clothes, which naturally attracted the attention of the neighbors.
"Oh, Yanling, where are you and your family going with all these nice clothes? It looks like all your clothes are new. This must have cost a lot of money, right?"
Song Zhiyao looked up and saw that this was the gossipy old lady next door named Cai. She was always gossipy and couldn't stand others being better than her. She especially liked to stare at their family's movements.
Every time they ate some meat, she would deliberately bring her grandson to hang around the door. It was normal for children to want to eat meat, but this old lady Cai didn't go home and cook for her grandson herself.
Instead, they stared at other people's houses all day long, thinking that Song Zhiyao had just returned and was a young girl who was a little shy, so they would just stare at her and call them to eat.
Who would have thought that Song Zhiyao would ignore her completely? This old lady Cai started to say everywhere that Song Zhiyao was stingy. If everyone didn't know who she was, they would definitely be fooled.
Song Zhiyao heard her saying these bad things several times. After staring at her with cold eyes several times, did she hear it?
Now, hearing this annoying old lady Cai asking about their family affairs, Song Zhiyao felt a little annoyed and didn't intend to pay any attention to her.
Unexpectedly, Lai Yanling changed her usual behavior and stretched out a hand in front of Aunt Cai, "Aunt Cai, let me show you the material of my clothes. It is very warm when you wear it.
Our family of four all wear this, and we don’t even need a sweater when we wear this.”
When Mrs. Cai heard this, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes. She didn't know what Lai Yanling meant, so she could only ask again sourly, "These clothes are expensive, right? Doesn't your family need to pay off foreign debts? Can't you live with buying four pieces at once?"
Lai Yanling knew that Mrs. Cai would be jealous, so she didn’t see it, “I have to make ends meet. How can I afford it with my salary? After paying for the family expenses, the rest is used to pay off debts.
These four pieces of clothing were bought by my daughter Zhiyao. This child told me not to buy them, but she insisted on buying one for each of the three of us, while I, as her mother, didn't buy her anything.
I feel uncomfortable just thinking about it.”
When she heard that it was bought by Song Zhiyao, Mrs. Cai felt even more jealous. She had thought that the person who came back was also a young lady. After all, she had lived in the Luo family for so many years and that family was well off.
If she comes back, she will definitely not know anything. Even if Song Zhiyao is a genius doctor, so what? She is just a little better at work, but her personality is definitely not much better.
She rarely greets people when they meet on the street, and she must not get along well with Lai Yanling and others at home. This is the speculation of most people in the textile factory.
Now, hearing that Song Zhiyao bought such nice clothes for her family, Mrs. Cai felt even more unhappy and wanted to find fault and make some sarcastic remarks.
Lai Yanling, who was familiar with Mrs. Cai, didn't give her a chance. "Aunt Cai, I won't talk to you any more. Today is my brother's birthday, and Zhiyao said she wanted to go to the department store to buy something for her uncle!"
After saying this, he took one of his daughters in each hand and disappeared in front of Mrs. Cai.
Mrs. Cai, who stayed there to wash clothes, felt more and more upset. Why was Lai Yanling so lucky that she lost a troublesome daughter and got such a well-behaved daughter back?
After arriving at the department store, Song Zhiyao went straight to the counter selling clothes and shoes on the second floor. Last night, she heard from her younger brothers and sisters that her uncle often had to go on business trips.
I thought that the police would definitely not wear uniforms when they were outside and would wear their own shoes, so I planned to buy a pair of boots for my uncle, a pair of cowhide boots that would be warm and wear-resistant.
When the clerk at the counter saw the new clothes the family of four were wearing and the quality of the clothes, he knew that this family could afford the things here, and his attitude improved.
When Song Ruyun saw the salesperson's nice attitude, she remembered that when she and her classmates went shopping here before, most of the salespeople were extremely arrogant and always said, "If you can't afford it, don't mess around. If you break it, you can't afford to pay for it."
Thinking about the patched clothes I wore before, and then looking at the new clothes I am wearing today, I immediately understand the saying that clothes make the man.
After looking for a while, Song Zhiyao took a fancy to a pair of gray leather boots. She had asked Lai Yanling's uncle about his shoe size before, so she asked the salesperson to pick up a pair for her to look at.
"Mom, look at this pair and see if it's suitable for uncle?"
Lai Yanling felt the shoes to feel their quality and thought about her brother's body shape, believing that they would definitely fit him well.
I felt very emotional because I had never given my elder brother such a good thing, but now my daughter bought it for my uncle.

She didn't say much, after all, this was in a department store, so she just nodded.
Lai Yanling also knew the attitude of the sales clerks in the department store. If she said something irrelevant, they would start scolding her later. There was no need to argue with them on such a good day like today.
Seeing Lai Yanling nod, Song Zhiyao didn't look at the others. She was very satisfied with this pair. "Comrade, please help me put it together and I want this pair."
The salesperson immediately became happier for the day. He placed a sale early in the morning and completed his job for the day. Recently, there have been a lot of street vendors outside, which has had a big impact on their department store.
Each of them now has a target, and being able to complete a deal early this morning is a good start. They are even more enthusiastic about Song Zhiyao, and they feel that this family has an extraordinary temperament.
I quickly explained to them how to maintain these leather boots.
After leaving the department store, Lai Yanling heard that Song Zhiyao was going to the vegetable and meat market, and she quickly muttered, "Zhiyao, you have already bought such an expensive pair of boots for your uncle, so there is no need to go to the market to buy meat."
I just bought this pair of shoes for 80 yuan, which is Song Zhiyao's two months' salary. Now that she has been converted to a regular employee, her salary has increased by 10 yuan, and other subsidies have also increased.
I have saved some money in the past few months, so I still have enough money to buy my uncle a pair of shoes and some meat for his birthday.
He ignored Lai Yanling's nagging and dragged his brother and sister straight to the meat shop.
Lai Yanling, who stayed where she was, had to hurry up and catch up. She was actually very happy while muttering to herself. She also hoped that her eldest brother could have a good birthday today.
I also feel like catching up and keeping this amount in mind.
