As soon as Jiang Huamei left, Jiang Shushu closed the courtyard door and called Jiang He to help unpack the packages. "Dad, come and help unpack the packages. Otherwise, it won't look good if they're piled up in the main room."
"good."
Jiang Shushu and Jiang He split up and opened the package together. Huan Huanle was there to help, but they ended up making things worse. Jiang Shushu took things out and the other two stuffed things back in, making Jiang Shushu want to slap their little butts.
Jiang Shushu had no choice but to take out the big package of toys from the bottom and open it in front of the two little ones.
Huanhuan saw her favorite stuffed toy, "Wow..."
Lele saw a wooden pistol, "Wow..."
Every time Jiang Shushu took out something, the two little guys would say, "Wow..." and then turn around to look at this one, then at that one. For a moment, they didn't know which one to choose to play with, because they liked them all.
Jiang Shushu gave all the toys he took out, including dolls, guns, wooden toy cars, wooden puzzles... to the two little ones.
"These are for you. You two just stay and play over here, okay? Mom and Grandpa want to unpack the packages." If you two make trouble, I'm afraid I'll get itchy hands and kill you for the sake of justice.
The two little guys nodded vigorously, their faces full of smiles, "Okay, okay, okay, we'll be good and play by ourselves."
He happily pounced on the toys, pressing one with his body, holding one with his left hand, and one with his right hand.
Jiang Shushu smiled. "Don't be greedy. How are you two going to play like this? There are eight toys in total, four for each of you. You can keep your own toys and play with them whenever you want. You can also exchange them. Huanhuan, you choose one first, Lele chooses one, and then Huanhuan will choose one, until all the toys are divided."
The toys were all selected by Jiang Shushu according to their preferences. They chose them happily and quickly, and there were no quarrels.
After the toys were divided, Huan Huanlele took their own toys and started playing happily. The two of them no longer had time to pay attention to Jiang Shushu. It seemed as if the "mom" on the left and right just now was all an illusion?
Jiang Shushu: "..." Is this a typical case of forgetting the mother once the milk is available? Where's the promised deep mother-son love? My heart suddenly sank.
Jiang Shushu turned his head back: Forget it, out of sight, out of mind, let’s get to work.
Jiang Shushu and Jiang He unpacked all the packages together and sorted out a lot of things.
Jiang Shushu roughly divided the things into five piles: Jiang Shushu and his wife's things, Huanhuanle's things, Jiang He and his wife's things, Jiang Mingli's family's things, and food and drinks at home.
"Dad, I've already divided the things. I'll pack our things and Huanhuanlele's things, and you put away yours and Big Brother's things. I'll pack the food and drinks later."
Jiang He looked at the pile of clothes and shoes and couldn't help but say, "Shushu, tell Dad, how many did you buy for me and your mom?" This is too much. I even doubt that my wife and I can't fit them all in our closets.
"Not many. You and mom bought three sets each for each season, and you also bought a set of winter clothes for your third uncle, eldest cousin, and eldest cousin's wife. The colors are similar. I don't know which set it is until I take it apart. Anyway, it's in your pile of clothes. You can try the clothes with my mom when the time comes. The ones that don't fit are from your third uncle. If I really couldn't pick out clothes that are suitable and good-looking for you, I would buy a few more sets." Compared with our family of four, you have very few clothes.
The clothes in City G are sold directly by manufacturers, with good quality and low prices. The most expensive set of winter clothes is less than 100 yuan, not to mention summer clothes, which are even cheaper.
Jiang He: "..." 12 sets? Oh my god, my daughter actually bought me 12 sets of clothes at once! I never dared to think of this in my life.
"Shushu, you've made a fortune? You won't spend all the money you earn, will you?" Jiang He felt sad when he thought about all the money he had spent.
Jiang Shushu: "..." Dad, do I look so useless? I've been out for more than three months, and this is all I've earned?
"Look at what you said, Dad. Who am I, your daughter? But I am your Jiang He's daughter. I have the strength, the brains, and the looks. Do you know what kind of person I am? - A talent. A talent like me has been hanging around outside for more than three months. If I don't achieve anything, wouldn't it be a disgrace to you? Is it justifiable? Don't worry, I didn't spend much on the things I bought (only 7,800)." To underestimate me is to underestimate yourself.
"Dad, you should wear what you need to wear and eat what you need to eat. Don't be frugal. What is the purpose of making money? It's to be spent, to improve your life. Otherwise, what's the point of making money?"
Jiang He chuckled: "Thinking back to when I was a teenager, I fought in the battlefield and traveled all over the country. I am worthy of being Jiang He's daughter. A tiger father has a dog daughter! Awesome, haha..."
"Dad is just inexperienced and was shocked. I have never seen so many new clothes at once!" My daughter has broadened my horizons again. That's great. My daughter is a little cotton-padded jacket. What she said is true.
"The first time is new, the second time is familiar. You will get used to it in the future. Next year when the new styles come out, I will buy you a dozen new sets. I guarantee that you and my mother will be the most handsome and fashionable old man and old woman in the village and the city. So you and my mother don't have to be reluctant to wear them. Just wear them and make other old women and old men envious. They will be far behind." I will go and make some money during the Chinese New Year. What clothes do you want?
When Jiang He heard what Jiang Shushu said, although he felt sorry for the money, he felt warm at the same time. He couldn't lower the corners of his mouth, and the wrinkles on his face became more and more.
Jiang He took a lot of willpower to hide the smile on his face. After all, the frugality that was deeply rooted in his bones still came into play at the critical moment. "No, no, no, Dad knows your filial piety, but let's be low-key. You have too many clothes and Dad can't wear them all. I can wear these clothes for at least five years. We'll buy more when they are worn out." Others only buy one set every five years, but buying 12 sets in five years is already a lot for me.
Seeing Jiang Shushu's disapproval, Jiang He immediately changed his tone, "Haha... If you really want to buy clothes for your parents, then we can just buy one set a year."
"Dad, times have changed now. In the past, we couldn't mend clothes for three years after three years. Now we can eat well and wear well, so of course we have to enjoy them. A piece of clothing can only be worn for two years at most. Three sets of clothes in a quarter are just enough for you." If I wasn't afraid that you would be too stressed and unable to sleep at night, I would have to buy a few more sets of clothes every quarter. How much does a set of clothes cost?
"How can a piece of clothing only be worn for two years? It can be worn for at least four or five years. If it is well protected, it can be worn for seven or eight years." Wearing a new piece of clothing every two years is too extravagant. Although new clothes are good, they cannot be wasted like this.
