Chapter 84 Chapter 84 Xia Li agreed to both of them,...
Charlie promised them that she would take them out to buy a Rubik's Cube, but there were conditions.
That would have to wait until she finished her work.
I don’t know why my son is so anxious to buy toys for other people’s children.
Xia Li saw that Jiang Zai's face changed as soon as she finished speaking, and it seemed that he didn't want to waste her time.
She felt a little strange, but she didn't know why. She just thought Jiangzai wanted to take the opportunity to go out and play. It had been a long time since she had taken him out for a walk, and her aunt had left a note today, probably meaning she wanted her to spend some time with the child.
She knew her aunt's intentions. She always felt that she spent too little time with her child. She said that the child was still young and needed his mother's company and care.
Xia Li agreed, but she didn't think she was wrong. While children certainly need companionship, she felt they needed other things even more, like money. Without money, how could a child attend such a good kindergarten with foreign teachers and a variety of engaging classes? Without money, wouldn't the child be able to afford any delicious food or fun toys? Wouldn't that make the child feel inferior? Having been through childhood herself, she knew what was most important to a person: spirit, confidence, and determination. Without these, nothing could be accomplished. And these things were precisely related to money.
When she first came to Guangzhou alone, it was money that gave her a foothold, and it was money that gave her confidence and courage. So, she believed in it.
Therefore, she can only give her children the most important things. She works so hard and strives to make further progress, because she wants not only to live a good life for herself, but also for her children.
What's more, compared to before, now at least she goes home every day, and Jiangzi sees her every day. She and the child are not just for show, and there is no communication, so how can this be said to be less companionship!
However, she listened to what her aunt said and was willing to fulfill Jiang Zai's little wish.
It's just going out to play, of course you can.
After washing the clothes, she briefly mopped the floor. After she finally finished cleaning up, it took about half an hour.
The two children finally thought they could go out, but Charlie said embarrassedly that she needed to change her clothes again. The clothes she just wore were for work and she felt embarrassed to go out in them.
Then, under the constant accusations of the two children, she quickly changed her clothes, combed her hair, and finally went out at 2:30.
When they were in the alley, Charlie ignored them and let them run however they wanted since there was no car anyway.
When they were about to walk out of the alley, she asked the two of them to stand beside her.
Jiangzai had something to ask of his mother, so he obediently ran over and stood beside her. But Anan was a person who couldn't understand her expression. Xia Li thought to herself, what a jerk he is, asking for toys but not obeying.
She pretended to cough twice, but the person who was supposed to hear it didn't hear it, and instead she coughed for her son to hear.
"Mom, is your throat uncomfortable?" Jiang Zai asked with concern.
Charlie lowered her head and looked at her son, then said softly, "Mom is fine, don't worry, baby." Her voice was gentle and full of love.
When Jiangzai heard his mother calling him "Zizi", two little red clouds floated silently on his face. His mother was so gentle, but he was so mean, and he even cheated on his mother with his brother Anan.
Xia Li didn't notice her son's little thoughts. She looked at the little boy Fang Nan who was still running and shouting in front of her, and her head hurt.
Can I take a good look at him today?
She felt that she was asking for trouble.
Jiang Zai was indeed her good son. Perhaps he noticed Xia Li's difficulty, so he took the initiative to step forward and bring his brother Anan back.
She also promised her mother that she would hold her brother's hand well.
Charlie thought about it and decided that she should hold his hand.
So, in the end, Xia Li held Xiao Fangnan, Xiao Fangnan held Jiangzai, and the three of them walked together, which was a unique harmony.
Based on Jiang Zai's description, Xia Li concluded that the toy store wasn't too far away. After all, her aunt had bought it on the way home from picking up the child, so it must be on this route.
She brought two children out, and one of the children was particularly restless. Although her hands were held tightly, Xia Li could not control her feet.
Fang Nan found it very interesting. He would rush forward, then jump upwards. After each movement, he would let out a sharp cry unique to children.
Charlie felt like she couldn't even face anyone.
In comparison, she and her child were truly a fairy baby, and her feelings had never been so profound.
Thank God for giving her the child Jiang Zai, thank Jiang Dong's mother for taking care of and raising the child, and thank Jiang Zai for being a good boy.
If someone who doesn't know the situation is familiar with the situation, they might wonder whether these two children are both hers, and might even wonder why their personalities are so different.
In fact, she did encounter such a thing on the road.
The other person was an elderly woman sitting in front of her shop, seemingly basking in the sun. There were few cars on this back street, just bicycles and motorcycles, but not many. The two children were walking on the inside of the street, while Charlie was on the outside.
When passing by a place, someone suddenly asked, "Are these two your children?"
Xia Li looked over to find an elderly man. She smiled, but before she could say anything, the elderly man acquiesced, "They're all handsome!"
Charlie smiled and nodded. Yes, that was absolutely true.
"But why do the two children have such different personalities? One is very calm and the other is very lively." The old man suddenly said this.
Charlie couldn't help but smile awkwardly.
"You are really lucky!"
"Grandma, you are very lucky too."
Xia Li felt that she really couldn't handle such an occasion today, so she said goodbye to the grandma and quickly ran away with the two kids.
How embarrassing!
With Jiang Zai leading the way, the three of them soon arrived at their destination. Jiang Zai didn't want to buy anything else but insisted on buying it here, saying that the things here were good.
Charlie thought to herself at the time: My dear, you have grown so fast that you can now tell the difference between good and bad things.
This was the first time Charlie noticed the shop.
However, she soon discovered that the red sign on the shop did not say the name of a toy store, but a genuine stationery store.
From the outside, this stationery store is not small. The entrance is in the middle of the store, with large bright windows on both sides. People passing by can see the neatly arranged shelves and counters inside from outside the windows.
While Xia Li was standing outside, people who looked like students kept coming in and out in groups.
This store is obviously doing good business.
After being stunned for a moment, Charlie remembered that there seemed to be a primary school and a middle school nearby.
There are enough students, and the main products are stationery for students, no wonder the business is so good.
but.
After staring at the sign for a while, Charlie suddenly turned her head to look at Jiang Zai who was standing next to her. She remembered that her aunt said this thing was a toy.
Did you buy it in this stationery store?
Charlie was suspicious.
There was a table at the entrance of the stationery store, but there was only a large cardboard box on it and no one was standing there. She didn't know what they were doing. She walked in with her two children, but she didn't ask for help directly because the store was doing so much business that there were several people queuing up to pay.
Jiangzai raised his eyes and looked at his mother, tugged at her clothes with his little hands, looked in the direction of the crowd, and then looked at his mother, wanting to ask her what to do.
So Charlie asked him to take her to find a seat and see if there were any waiters nearby.
Jiang Zai knew where it was, so he went there with his mother and brother Anan. When they got there, he squatted down and took a square box from the second shelf below. He then held it up for his mother to see.
Fang Nan also took out another one and imitated Jiang Zai.
"Okay, I see." Charlie nodded, you two put it down.
She looked around and didn't see any waiters from this store. This place was against the wall, sandwiched between two shelves.
Charlie walked forward a few steps, went out, and saw a waitress who was obviously wearing clothes from the store, and greeted her.
The clerk in a small vest quickly came over and asked, "Hello, what can I do for you?"
She looked at Charlie, but her words were actually addressed to the children. After all, the things in their store were basically what children needed.
Charlie said, "My child bought one of your toys, but it's not enough for two people to play with, so we need to buy another one. Could you please teach them how to play?"
She asked politely.
The saleswoman said very kindly, "Sure, which toy would you like?"
Charlie gestured to Ginger.
Then Jiang Zai took out the Rubik's Cube in his hand and showed it to the shop assistant.
The saleswoman looked a little embarrassed when she saw the toy in his hand, and then said to Charlie apologetically, "I'm so sorry, I don't know how to play with this toy, and I may not be able to teach the child how to play with it."
In fact, she had tried to piece it together herself after getting it from the store and disassembling it for display on the shelf, but sometimes, despite her best efforts, she could only piece together a single piece. She really didn't know what the designer was thinking, how could anyone piece it together completely.
What surprised her was that this thing was very popular with parents and children, both boys and girls. Her store manager also said that this toy was good and could help children develop their intelligence.
The female clerk felt that her head was about to hurt from playing, so it must be true that it can develop intelligence.
However, those who like this toy are definitely not ordinary children.
Take her younger brother for example, she bet that guy would never like this kind of thing.
The female clerk looked at the little boy who looked very depressed after she finished speaking, and then looked at another little boy who didn't seem to care about anything and was only curious about the dazzling array of toys on the shelves, and suddenly remembered something.
She said hurriedly, "Please wait a moment," and left quickly.
Charlie looked at the female clerk leaving in confusion, not knowing what was going on.
"Mom." Jiang Zai said a little sadly.
He really wanted to be able to spell it well, but he couldn't do it no matter how hard he tried, so he felt like a stupid kid. He had originally thought that if only his mother brought him here, someone would teach him everything would be fine.
Charlie saw her son's pitiful look, and there was nothing she could do.
He spread his hands and shrugged.
"Why don't you take a look at other things first? Mom can give you and your brother Anan a toy each today. Of course, it doesn't have to be too expensive."
The female clerk returned soon. She smiled and said to the mother and her two children, "Sorry for the long wait. I asked our store manager, and the clerk who knows how to play with the Rubik's Cube has gone out to get some goods. He will be back soon. If you are not in a hurry, you can wait in our store for a while, take a look around, and then ask him to teach the child when he comes. Is that okay?"
After Jiang Zai came over from the female clerk, he kept looking up at her and listened to her words very attentively. He understood what she said and nodded as soon as she finished speaking.
Looks very urgent.
Charlie stood in front of the clerk, glanced at Jiang Zai's cute appearance, and nodded.
"Okay, let's go shopping first. When the clerk who can play with this, um, Rubik's Cube, comes back, please call us."
"Okay, okay." The female clerk said with a smile.
