There was no way around it; she had many family members, relatives, and friends.
This country girl rarely comes to the city, so she definitely wants to bring back some gifts for her relatives and friends.
Ningbao and Su Yuanzhi would leave each shop with their arms full of things they bought, and after a while, when they reached a secluded spot, the things would simply disappear.
Although the two bought quite a few things, they were all small trinkets and didn't cost much money.
Ningbao stared longingly at Su Yuanzhi, looking at the candy figurine stall by the roadside.
Looking at his junior sister's big, bright eyes, Su Yuanzhi waved his hand.
"Junior Sister, would you like some sugar figurines? How many? It's on me, Third Senior Brother."
Ning Bao raised an eyebrow.
"Are any of them okay?"
"A few are fine." Sugar figurines aren't expensive, and his junior sister can't eat many even if she wants.
Su Yuanzhi was surprised that Ning Bao jumped up with joy after hearing his words.
"Third senior brother, you're so kind! Let's go buy sugar figurines."
I want to give one to Dad, one to Mom, one to Daddy, one to Mommy, one to Grandpa, one to Mommy, one to Grandpa Zhou, one to my eldest brother, one to Aunt Gu, one to Brother Mu Yang, one to Master, one to my eldest brother…”
"Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!"
As Su Yuanzhi listened to Ning Bao reciting names one by one, she was completely exasperated.
"You're not going to buy one for someone in your family who doesn't have anyone else, are you?"
"no."
Su Yuanzhi breathed a sigh of relief...
"I'm not only going to buy one for everyone in my family, but I'm also going to buy one for each of my friends, and one for Aunt Qiao, Grandpa Fan, Grandpa Xiang..."
"Alright, alright, buy them all!"
"It's just a few sugar figurines, Third Senior Brother can afford it." Su Yuanzhi said, reaching for his purse at his waist...
wrong!
Why is there an empty space around my waist?
Where is my wallet?
Ning Bao glanced at Su Yuanzhi's face and said something very perfunctorily.
"Wow! Third senior brother, you've lost money."
That thief has a good eye; he always targets the wealthy.
Su Yuanzhi glanced at his money-grubbing junior sister.
"Aren't you worried about your senior brother losing his silver notes?"
Ning Bao shook her head.
"Don't worry, Ningbao's isn't lost."
Ningbao patted her small crossbody bag as she spoke.
Su Yuanzhi looked dejected. Although he didn't care about the money, he didn't want it stolen.
He looked up and saw his junior sister, who had paid for the sugar figurine herself, and a sudden idea struck him.
"Junior sister, little cousin, how about you help your senior brother catch a thief?"
Ningbao carefully arranged the large handful of sugar figurines, raising an eyebrow mischievously as she did so.
“Master said that even close master and disciple should keep clear accounts. Although we are both master and disciple and cousins, we still need to keep accounts.”
Su Yuanzhi nodded.
"Yes, it definitely counts."
I wonder how Junior Sister plans to calculate this.
Ning Bao raised his voice in a serious tone,
"Whoever catches her is hers."
Su Yuanzhi glanced at his junior sister with a sense of annoyance. Although she was young, she was always shrewd.
Everyone in the entire Sanqing Taoist Temple knows that his junior sister can find anything by simply holding her little compass in her hand.
Su Yuanzhi held up five fingers.
"Fifty-five!"
Ning Bao shook her head.
Su Yuanzhi continued,
"Four six!"
Ning Bao shook her head again.
"Sanqi!"
Ningbao crossed her arms and said, "I'm not going!"
"Two-eight!"
"I'm not going!"
"19!"
"Okay! No take-backs allowed!"
"Wait here and don't get lost!"
After saying that, Ningbao immediately ran away.
Su Yuanzhi: "…………"
