Finally back home
The first group's trip to Hong Kong was only eight days long, but this eight-day tour had a significant impact on other aspects.
For example, this first tour group caused a huge response in society. People said that this tour group built a bridge of friendly communication between the people of the mainland and Hong Kong, allowing relatives and friends who had been separated for many years to reunite through this opportunity.
For example, this tour group laid the foundation for a long-lasting Hong Kong itinerary. Victoria Peak, Ocean Park, a night view of Kowloon, and dining at Jumbo Seafood were all must-dos. Also, a variety of gold jewelry, medicine, and watches were must-buys.
For example, since the first tour group returned, the number of people signing up for Hong Kong tours has steadily increased. Citizens clamor for more independent tour groups to Hong Kong every day. One such tour after all this time simply isn't enough! Cross-Strait relations are one family, and the previous cumbersome procedures are no longer sufficient to meet the growing needs of the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. The top leaders have decided to gradually ease restrictions, increasing the number of tour groups from one per day to 12. Even then, it's still not enough. The number of applicants continues to grow exponentially!
The first group had a profound impact, but these dozens of group members did not feel it deeply. They are now in this Lushan Mountain and still don’t know the true face. Several familiar group members are saying goodbye to each other in Guangzhou and going home.
The final day of the trip quietly arrived. Jian Jianan's family of four finally packed their voluminous luggage. Back then, the logistics industry was still underdeveloped, so they had to carry all the souvenirs they wanted to take back home. Fortunately, transportation was well-developed along the way, so they didn't have to rely on their own strength much. With the driver's help, they loaded their luggage onto the bus and then chatted animatedly with their fellow group members.
After the trip over the past few days, many group members have become familiar with each other. Now on the last day, a feeling of reluctance to leave filled the space. Everyone left their contact information, and some even gave their business cards to those who liked each other.
Mrs. Chen really liked Jian Jianan's family. When she gave Su Qinxuan her business card, she also reminded him, "Please keep in touch in the future. We also have a house in Luohu, Shenzhen, which is not far away. If you have any questions, you can come to me."
Jian Jianan's eyes lit up when he heard this. Wow, Aunt Chen, you are a native of Guangzhou, how come you have a house in Shenzhen?
It sounds great. She has houses in so many places. Doesn't this mean that she can stay in her own home wherever she travels?
Jian Jianan made a decision that when he grows up, he will buy houses all over the world!
Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping nodded repeatedly, and promised to come out for dinner when they had time. After all, they lived close by, so it was convenient to go out.
Jian Jianan was communicating with Cai Chengyu.
Cai Chengyu is worthy of being the top student in the provincial No. 1 Middle School. After the incident the day before yesterday, she has now fully adjusted herself. If people who are not familiar with her see her, they will definitely think that she is normal.
The current Cai Chengyu is more in line with her name, like a piece of polished jade. After going through setbacks and hardships and getting rid of villains who are not suitable for her, she finally broke free from everything that dragged her down, and finally became a beautiful jade.
Cai Chengyu smiled and said to Jian Jianan, "Anyway, we already exchanged our addresses and email numbers a few days ago. Write to me when you have time. I will remember you and write to you often. Anyway, we shouldn't lose contact!"
Jian Jianan nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, yes, I know, Sister Xiaoyu, I will definitely remember to write to you. As for you, next semester is the crucial semester for the college entrance examination. I don't know if you will have time to communicate with me!"
Cai Chengyu smiled brightly and generously: "Haha, don't worry about that. I have a good foundation. Even if I take out ten or twenty minutes every day to write to you, my grades won't drop. I still have this confidence!"
Is this the confidence that only belongs to top students?
Jian Jianan was shocked.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Gao Liuqi and her son standing together like conjoined twins. Ever since the incident at Ocean Park, she became increasingly confused about the situation of the mother and son.
Not to mention that they did not help the person in danger that day, these two people should have changed a little, but they acted as if nothing happened. Gao Chunlai looked down on Cai Duoyan and her daughter as always. The two families maintained a tacit understanding to maintain the last bit of decency.
Cai Chengyu noticed Jian Jianan's gaze and followed her gaze. She understood what she meant and sighed, saying, "I couldn't sleep all night long before. It was only later that I finally figured it out and realized how naive I was back then."
At this point, she smiled brightly. "So, don't worry too much about me! I've figured it out now. I was blind to fall for Gao Liuqi before! Maybe it was because of the high-pressure study environment I was in before, and the similarities between Gao Liuqi's experiences and mine, that I mistakenly thought the relationship between Gao Liuqi and me was heterosexual love."
"But now I've finally seen through the fog. Gao Liuqi has always been the little boy who was blocked by his mother. He felt at ease and didn't have the slightest thought of resistance. So he didn't take any responsibility at all. Otherwise, he wouldn't have watched me fall without saving me that day!"
"I don't know why, but the sight of them leaving kept lingering in my mind. It was almost becoming a nightmare. Eventually, my mom, who lives with me, noticed something was amiss and woke me up. I have to say, my mom is always a reliable person. I was initially heartbroken. Anyone with a boyfriend like that would probably think the same thing. Why do I have such poor taste? But then I figured it out. Just because Gao Liuqi isn't a good person doesn't mean I have poor taste. It's entirely his fault!"
Very good, Jian Jianan nodded. After just a few days, Cai Chengyu has completely transformed, from "self-reflection in everything" to "blaming others more and not reflecting on himself"!
Cai Chengyu smiled faintly in the sunshine. Her smile was completely free of gloom, as if she were reborn.
She stretched out her arms and sighed, "Oh! My head hurts so much just thinking about going back from this trip. I'm already in my third year of high school, and the college entrance exam is just a few months away. I can't have a leisurely winter vacation. I don't know how many exams and homework are waiting for me. We can't even use up our winter vacation completely. It's going to end right after the Chinese New Year at the end of January, so we won't even have a full winter vacation!"
"Ah!" Jian Jianan, who was interacting with high school seniors for the first time, was shocked. "You guys are working too hard!"
Wouldn't their school be like this by then? Once they reach their third year of high school, they won't even be allowed to take holidays?
Since it was about vacation, the two girls immediately stopped caring about Grade 6 or Grade 7, and immediately put their heads together and started chattering about high school studies.
"What? You don't have a holiday for Qingming Festival?"
"Yeah, yeah, I remember there was no holiday in the first year of high school. The pretext was that the third year of high school had to start from the first year. Don't you have this rule? Do you have a holiday?"
"Of course we have holidays. Even the employees of our hotel have to go home and worship their ancestors!" Jian Jianan said firmly.
"What! I'm so envious!"
…
Although Gao Liuqi was standing and talking to his mother, his eyes were involuntarily attracted to Cai Chengyu. He didn't even hear Gao Chunlai calling him several times, and was absent-minded.
"Liuliu! Liuliu! Mom is talking to you! Can you hear me?"
Gao Chunlai saw that his son's eyes were almost stuck to someone and couldn't be torn off, and he couldn't help but shout out in anger.
"Don't you think you didn't hear me? I've known about this for a long time. I just didn't want to ruin your college entrance exam by telling you about it. After the exam, we can sit down and talk about this matter!"
After hearing what his mother said, Gao Liuqi finally withdrew his gaze and focused on the woman in front of him who was over 50 years old.
He raised his eyes and asked quietly, "Oh, then, why don't you expose this matter now? You hate Cai Duoyan and her family so much, and now that you've finally caught them, why don't you think about making a big deal out of it?"
Gao Liuqi didn't even think of asking Gao Chun to answer, and continued, "Is it because you have something against me as well? Is it because you feel embarrassed that you don't want to expose it?"
It has to be said that Gao Liuqi's words really shocked his mother. Gao Chunlai seemed to have never really known his son. He took a few steps back, unable to believe his ears.
"You, what are you talking about? I, I don't understand what you are talking about!"
Gao Liuqi took a look at the panicked woman in front of him, and finally felt guilty and stopped talking to provoke her.
But in a very rare move, he did not wait for his mother, but walked forward alone, leaving the group of people who were still chatting behind him far behind.
Gao Chunlai hurriedly followed her son. She didn't dare to ask her son to walk slower because of her disabled legs. She had a premonition that if she didn't do something, she might really lose her son this time.
There will be nothing you can do by then!
Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping finally finished greeting their group members. The conversation came to an end and it was time for everyone to go home.
Although Jian Jianan was very reluctant, she knew that all good things must come to an end, and it was time to say goodbye to Cai Chengyu.
Cai Chengyu was actually very reluctant, but she knew that as long as two people were thinking about the same thing, missed and cared about each other, even if they were separated by a long distance, even if they could not see each other again in a short time, they were still walking on the same path.
"goodbye!"
Jian Jianan said goodbye loudly to Cai Chengyu and waved her hands, as if she wanted to remember the person opposite her clearly in this way.
Although the journey lasted only eight days, it must be said that these eight days left a deep impression on everyone.
The group members not only experienced the charm of Hong Kong firsthand, but also met more than 20 short-term friends of different ages, identities and personalities. Some of them even developed into lifelong close friends in these few short days.
Even Jian Jiabei, who always prided himself on being very rational and never emotional, couldn't help but shed tears as he sat in the car that picked them up. The scenes of the journey were replaying in his mind.
Even if you are thousands of miles away, we will eventually part ways.
Jian Jianan and Cai Chengyu have said the word "goodbye" enough times. Although they really don't want to face separation, they really have to say goodbye this time.
Cai Chengyu's family is in Guangzhou, so they can go back directly later, but Jian Jianan's family of four has some trouble. After saying goodbye to their group members, they cannot go home immediately. Instead, they have to take a bus back to Shenzhen, return from Guangzhou to Shenzhen, and then return to their own homes before they can have a good rest.
It happened that there was a traffic jam on the way back to Shenzhen. The entire lane was constantly crowded with cars. Even if they were sitting in a very fast four-wheeled car, they could hardly move forward.
"Roads are being built everywhere, and development is happening everywhere!" Su Qinxuan sighed.
Jian Jianan continued, "That's right, development is happening everywhere, especially in Shenzhen. The speed of building a floor in three days is not in vain!"
The family immediately laughed when they thought of this, and the joy of returning home filled each of their hearts.
It was still four o'clock in the afternoon when they returned to Guangzhou from Hong Kong. The winter sun was still high in the sky, but by the time they actually returned to their home in Donghu Liyuan, the sun had already set for several hours.
With the help of the driver, Jian Jianan's family of four moved all their luggage back home. Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping bought a lot of things, especially Su Qinxuan. She was very generous, had a lot of business contacts, and knew a lot of people, not to mention that she had also promised to buy things for a large group of relatives and friends.
The local specialties brought back from Hong Kong filled the entire living room. Jian Jiangnan took a quick look and felt that two-thirds of them were the work of Su Qinxuan.
If you ask who buys the least among their family of four, it must be Jian Jianan herself!
She had already eaten all the food she liked locally and seen all the scenery, so there was really nothing she had to buy and bring home. Apart from the more than 400 grams of gold, Jian Jianan didn't buy anything else.
The remaining one-third of the luggage was the masterpiece of my brother Jian Jiabei.
Don't get me wrong, this is not solid evidence that he spends money lavishly. Most of the things that Jian Jiabei carried back with great difficulty were purchased by others who asked him to help buy them!
His own things only accounted for a small part.
"Alright!" Su Qinxuan checked that all the spoils had been moved back, and nothing was missing or wrong. He stood in the middle of the living room and clapped his hands, attracting the attention of the whole family. "We've got everything back. Now go wash up and go to bed. We'll deal with packing tomorrow. It's so late now, I'm tired, aren't you tired too?"
Jian Jianan shook her head, looking energetic and not looking tired at all, in stark contrast to her brother Jian Jiabei who was yawning beside her.
"I'm not tired, Mom! I don't feel tired at all. I can pack my things first!" For her, returning home does not mean everything is fine. The 400 grams of gold she bought is still in her arms. The most urgent thing is to find a place to sell them all. She is not in a hurry to sleep.
Su Qinxuan's face immediately hardened upon hearing her daughter's words. She said very seriously, "I don't care what you think, I care what I think. How can you not be tired after playing for so many days and coming home? Besides, it's already ten o'clock in the evening. You and your brother used to go to bed at nine o'clock. Going to bed too late is not good for children's health."
Jian Jianan protested in dissatisfaction: "Mom! How can you say that! I remember you always told me this when I was in elementary school. Now that I'm in high school, you're still scaring me about the dangers of staying up late!"
Although very reluctant, if possible, Jian Jianan even wanted to perform Wu Song fighting the tiger in front of his mother to prove that he was now full of energy and vitality. However, under the majesty of the head of the family, Su Qinxuan, the two children could only wash up and go to bed obediently.
In this family, the top of the food chain is Mom, Su Qinxuan. Once she makes up her mind, no one else can change it. Didn't you see that Dad, Jian Yangping, just stood there with a silly smile on his face? He didn't even respond to the siblings' eye contact, and it was obvious that he was definitely on Mom's side.
Jian Jianan thought regretfully that it seemed that he could only get down to business tomorrow morning.
When Jian Jianan just finished taking a hot bath and lay in bed, she was still making a list in her mind, listing the things she needed to do tomorrow one by one and making a plan in advance. In this way, when she got up tomorrow, she could complete them one by one in an orderly manner according to the contents of the plan.
I didn't expect that I would feel sleepy so suddenly as soon as I lay down on the warm mattress. It was hard to guard against it.
The last second before Jian Jianan lost consciousness, the only thing in his mind was "Mom is worthy of being the big boss who has developed the Nanbei Group to such a large scale. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so predictable. She is really - tired - now - ah -"
Then, Jian Jianan had no other thoughts at all, and she fell asleep.
People often sleep most soundly when they are most tired. Jian Jianan slept soundly all night long until the next morning, and she wanted to continue sleeping.
Then I was woken up by a knock on the door.
"Knock, knock, knock! Knock, knock, knock! Mr. Su! Mr. Su, are you home now?"
"Sister Qin! Sister Qin! It's time to go to work! Are you awake? There are many things waiting for you in our two stores!"
"I'm coming! Wait a minute, I'll be there soon!" After the knock on the door, mother Su Qinxuan's voice was heard. Her footsteps sounded, and the door creaked open.
Jian Jiannan was sleeping in the quilt, but she could vaguely hear the doorbell and people talking outside the room. It sounded like her mother and Sister Xiaotao were discussing something.
Jian Jianan woke up and wanted to continue sleeping but couldn't. He simply threw away the warm quilt and got up.
Jian Jianan came to the living room with sleepy eyes, and saw that his living room was nothing like usual, and was filled with various documents.
On the coffee table in the living room were various documents and contracts. Yang Tao and a young assistant who looked familiar to Jian Jianan were sitting on Su Qinxuan's left and right, discussing something.
Seeing Jian Jianan coming out, Yang Tao and others immediately greeted her.
"Long time no see, Nannan!"
Jian Jianan rubbed his eyes, rushed over with a look of surprise, and greeted excitedly: "Long time no see, Sister Xiaotao!"
It seems like they haven't seen each other since they went to Hong Kong, which has been about ten days!
Yang Tao has been working for Su Qinxuan and accompanying Jian Jianan since the days of the Nanbei Restaurant. Now she can almost be considered half her elder.
It is of course a great surprise to see you again after such a long separation!
Yang Tao opened her arms to Jian Jianan, looked her up and down for several times, and finally came to a conclusion: "A little fatter."
Jian Jianan raised his head proudly: "Of course, I ate from the beginning to the end of my trip to Hong Kong. Besides, it's autumn and winter now, so I need to gain weight!"
The daughter got up, and for a moment the living room was filled with laughter and joy, so they couldn't continue discussing important matters.
But it doesn’t matter. Anyway, I have already discussed several important matters with Su Qinxuan.
Yang Tao smiled and said to Jian Jianan, "I've been so busy lately, and your mother chose such a busy time to go traveling. It's really true. A few other people and I stayed in the store and worked ourselves to death. Your mother really doesn't care about our lives!"
As she spoke, she nodded in Su Qinxuan's direction and jokingly said, "I knew you guys came back yesterday. I thought you must be very tired after just getting home. I was thinking of giving you a night to rest and then going back to work today. But this morning, I waited and waited in the store, but our boss Su Qinxuan, who never comes late, rain or shine, didn't show up. I had no choice but to come to his house in person."
"It's funny, Sister Qin was still sleeping when I came over this morning, and she was woken up by my knocking on the door. Is she still blaming me for being so tactless and disturbing her sleep so early in the morning?"
She also knew that it was not very kind to disturb people's sleep so early in the morning, but there was nothing she could do. Su Qinxuan had to make all the decisions in the store, big or small. She had been away for so many days, and she didn't know how many things were piled up in the two stores waiting for her to decide.
Originally, Yang Tao was just the manager of the Nanbei Hotel, but during the time when Su Qinxuan was away, why did the people from Jinhuiju always come to him for help whenever something happened?
She is just a small store manager, not the boss!
Therefore, after waiting for Su Qinxuan to finally come back as if every day was a long time, and after waiting in the hotel for a long time in vain, Yang Tao finally couldn't bear it anymore and decided to go to the house to find him in person.
The scene when Su Qinxuan opened the door for him just now was so funny!
Yang Tao couldn't help laughing just by recalling Su Qinxuan's expression at that time.
What kind of expression is that?
His face was a mixture of confusion, helplessness, and even an emotion called "not wanting to go to work".
Jian Jianan knew Yang Tao was joking, but as a "mama's girl," she immediately spoke up to save Su Qinxuan's face: "This is normal. Mom has been working in the store for several years. Even her holidays are spent in the store. She has never gone out to play. She finally got this opportunity to travel to Hong Kong. I'm so happy for her!"
Then she immediately praised Yang Tao: "Speaking of which, my mother can go out and have fun without worrying about it, and entrust such a large restaurant to you, thanks to you, Sister Tao! You are so capable and strong, why should my mother worry?"
Yang Tao felt relieved after hearing this. Seeing Jian Jianan's hurried look, she asked, "Why are you eating breakfast so hastily? You just came back from playing. Is there something urgent you need to do?"
Jian Jianan was still chewing on the millet cake produced by Jinhuiju and had no time to speak, so Su Qinxuan answered for her daughter. She smiled and shook her head, "Don't mention it!"
"You don't know, this kid is completely obsessed with money. Even when she's out having fun, she doesn't forget to make a living. She was shopping on the streets of Hong Kong when she suddenly saw the price of gold. She thought it might be possible to buy low and sell high. She could buy gold there and then sell it back in Shenzhen to make a profit. So, she spent all her money on gold, and she came home with hundreds of grams of gold in her pocket. We carried large bags of clothes and souvenirs, but she carried 400 grams of gold on her back. Her brother saw that she was a little tired and asked if she wanted help carrying it, but she refused. She was so reluctant to part with it!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
“I’m dying of laughter!”
"Why is there such a thing?"
As soon as Su Qinxuan said this, Yang Tao and the other assistants burst into laughter. Jian Jianan is so cute, especially in Su Qinxuan's description, he is simply a cute little money-grubber who will not do anything without profit!
Su Qinxuan seemed to be complaining to her friends about her daughter's money-grubbing personality, but she was actually sweetly showing off. Yang Tao, well aware of her sister Qin's subtle thoughts, immediately spoke up for Jian Jianan, "Okay, okay, Sister Qin, isn't Nannan doing great right now? She's perfect for being your successor and taking over those two restaurants! Since she's such a money-grubbing person, you don't have to worry about anyone using this to bully her for not knowing how to run a business, right?"
Su Qinxuan nodded with a smile, agreeing with Yang Tao's words. Although she said that just now, she still admired her daughter's character. Jian Jianan always had a pair of eyes that could find business opportunities in the details, and she was particularly proactive and had strong execution ability. Once she thought of a possibility, she would do it immediately and would not delay it until the next morning or later.
Sometimes, Su Qinxuan wondered what kind of influential person her daughter would be when she grew up. This scene made her look forward to it just by thinking about it!
Grow up quickly, my little baby. I will shelter you from the wind and rain and protect you in places you can’t see or can see. All you have to do is move forward boldly!
Jian Jianan was used to this kind of banter and wasn't at all offended by her mother's jokes with her sisters. After finishing her breakfast in just three or five minutes, she shouted goodbye to her mother, "I'm done with breakfast! I'll go look for places where I can sell second-hand gold. I'll be back at noon. Goodbye, Mom, goodbye, Sister Xiaotao, goodbye, Sister Xiaoli!"
Yang Tao immediately stopped Jian Jianan and said to her, "Are you going to sell your gold now? Then go to the old street and have a look. I remember there are a lot of gold shops there. They're always busy, with a lot of incoming and outgoing gold. The daily gold prices are in line with international standards, so they're quite regular compared to other small shops!"
Jian Jianan was stunned. Yes, how could she have forgotten? Yang Tao was a local, so if she wanted to find a second-hand gold shop, it would be best to ask her.
Jian Jianan immediately replied cheerfully, "Okay, thank you Sister Xiaotao. I'll be leaving first!"
She opened the door as she finished speaking, and a second later, the three women in the living room watched her disappear through the door.
Yang Tao hurriedly came back to her senses and frowned. "This child, why is she so impatient? I haven't even finished my words, and she ran away in a hurry! I haven't even finished my words yet. Although there are many gold shops in the old street, the whole street is full of gold shops, but there are good and bad ones, some are formal and some are informal. She is just a child, she looks so young, what will happen if she gets cheated!"
Su Qinxuan comforted her: "Okay, okay, don't worry, you have to trust Nan Nan, she will definitely be able to tell the difference!"
Yang Tao raised her eyebrows and glanced at Su Qinxuan, "Sister Qin, Nannan is your biological daughter, why are you so calm?"
Su Qinxuan said leisurely: "If you knew her glorious past, you wouldn't be as anxious as I am."
Su Qinxuan's words brought back their memories of Jian Jianan's past deeds. They immediately laughed together and went on to discuss things in the store.
As for Jian Jianan, she followed Sister Xiaotao's advice and took the bus to the old street. As soon as she got off the bus, she was shocked by the golden atmosphere.
This entire street is actually full of gold shops buying and selling gold. Moreover, there are a lot of people. There are countless people crowded in each gold shop. It seems that their local gold market is also very lively!
Jian Jianan first found a gold shop. Although she had all the gold in her arms, she did not rush to sell it immediately. Instead, she took out 100 grams and asked the boss behind the counter, "How do I sell this?"
The boss originally thought that Jian Jianan was a little girl and didn't want to spend much effort to greet her, but in a blink of an eye, he was frightened by the gold she took out. The golden light was really frightening.
When he saw the gold that Jian Jianan took out, he didn't even bother to answer and hurriedly picked it up and looked at it in his hand.
"This gold bar of yours... isn't very good..." The gold shop owner pondered, his heart filled with excitement and great joy, but his expression didn't show it. Instead, he frowned and looked distressed. "Your gold bar doesn't look good. I think the quality isn't very good either."
Jian Jianan had long seen through the boss's intention to lower the price, and immediately made a gesture to take it away. "The quality is not good? Oh, that's strange. I just bought it, and I don't know why the quality is not good. Could it be that the boss deliberately deceived me? No, I have to take it back and have a good talk with him!"
The boss became anxious and didn't even bother to speak. He leaned forward and grabbed Jian Jianan's hand as he tried to take back the gold bar. "No, no, no, no, no, I was just distracted. This one is quite good. How about this, I'll give you this price."
After saying that, he made a gesture to Jian Jianan.
Unexpectedly, Jian Jianan still disagreed. She looked at the sign outside and made a gesture to herself.
The boss struggled with his conscience for a while, and then felt that he could still make a profit even with this number, so he gritted his teeth and agreed.
While Jian Jianan was waiting for the boss to get the items and go through the paperwork, another young couple came to buy three gold jewelry.
The custom here is that before getting married, in order to show the husband's love and importance to his wife, the couple must give his wife three pieces of gold jewelry, which together form three pieces of gold: a gold bracelet, a gold ring and a gold necklace.
They look like a young couple and may be getting married soon.
As soon as the little girl entered the jewelry shop, she felt like she had entered a treasure trove. Her eyes lit up when she saw any gold jewelry.
When Jian Jianan was casually walking around the store, he heard the girl say, "This bracelet seems a little tight. Oh, it's really a little tight. I can't take it off even if I want to."
The girl wanted to take off the gold bracelet and was about to take it off and choose a new one, but her boyfriend grabbed her hand and stopped her from taking it off.
Her boyfriend argued, "What do you mean it's tight? I don't feel it's tight at all. Besides, it fits you perfectly. You're so thin and your arms are so thin. If you chose a thicker bracelet, it would easily slip off. What would I do if I lost such an expensive item?"
The little girl was not happy and immediately retorted: "How can it fit? How can it fit? It's so tight that anyone with eyes can see it!"
Jian Jianan wanted to laugh after hearing what the two people said, especially the man. It was obvious that the girl didn't like the bracelet being too light and wanted to buy a heavier, wider and bigger one.
But this is normal. The bracelet is indeed a bit tight for this little girl. It takes a lot of effort and time to put it on and take it off. In every way, it is not suitable for her.
And she was sure that the man in the couple also understood the implied meaning of this sentence, otherwise his reaction would not have been so intense.
The two of them kept pushing and pulling each other, and Jian Jianan even heard the little girl's voice suddenly rise an octave: "I know, I know, you just think I spend too much money and don't want to spend money on me!"
The man quickly begged for mercy: "No, no, I just think my parents are very hard-working. Look at how much money we spent on the betrothal gifts. Can't we save a little on the three golds? And think about it, the money we save will be used by the two of us in the future, and it will be spent on our little family. You can also enjoy it!"
Just at this time, the boss finished the formalities and handed the bills, documents and money to Jian Jianan.
Jian Jianan's presence finally caught the attention of the arguing couple. The man, wanting to distract his girlfriend, asked the boss, "Hey, boss, how many grams of gold did this girl pawn?"
The boss made a look at Jian Jianan, trying to get her consent. After she nodded, he said lightly, "It's not much, just 100g."
Man: “…”
The bracelet on his girlfriend's wrist seems to weigh only 3g, which is not even a fraction of what other people pay!
When did the girls nowadays become so rich?
Well, he shouldn't have asked that question.
After hearing this, the girlfriend immediately became even angrier. One hundred grams of gold is so heavy that it can be a family heirloom!
"Look at the 100 grams of gold they have, and then look at this bracelet on my hand, which weighs less than 5 grams. You still have the nerve to call it a gold bracelet when it's so thin..."
When Jian Jiabei left, the boss asked her one last question as usual, "That's all, right? No more?"
Jian Jianan reached into his pocket and felt around, feeling a few other gold bars, then shook his head.
She raised her head and looked behind the boss, where there was a large chart hanging. It listed the daily gold price and the average price of each month from three years ago to this year.
Jian Jianan looked at the price list which was rising steadily, and she was confident about the future price of gold. Besides, she was not short of money now, so of course she had to keep the gold for a longer time as it could preserve its value.
Jian Jianan did so many things in one morning, and when she returned home, her brother was still sleeping soundly in the room.
When Jian Jiabei got up, it was already past noon. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the back of a man sitting in the dining room reading a newspaper.
As soon as Jian Jianan saw his brother get up, he immediately raised his chin and pointed at the stack of cash on the dining table. He glanced at him indifferently and said, "Nuo, that's your money. I put it on the table for you. Remember to put it away."
Jian Jiabei: "..."
He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, still wondering if he hadn't woken up yet and was still dreaming. Otherwise, how could he see such a rare thing as his sister giving him money?
