Isn't that just a coincidence? God is going to punish you. Besides, do you think you don't need to buy a fan if there's no electricity? Did you ask? Did I agree?
Your smile is uglier than your cry. Does it hurt? It's okay to feel heartbroken.
"Let's go! If Mom and Dad can receive your gift, they will definitely have an extra bowl of rice tomorrow night."
Jiang Mingli didn't know whether to leave or not. He was reluctant to go in and buy something, but he was afraid that Jiang Shushu would make a fuss if he didn't go in. Jiang Mingli really wanted to slap himself in the face.
What a stupid idea! If I had known this earlier, I would have just denied it.
Jiang Shushu took two steps, and when he saw Jiang Mingli hadn't caught up, he turned around and said, "Are you not happy to spend some money on our parents? I'm actually interested in your mother-in-law. Why don't you take me to meet her and see how charming she is. She's willing to let her son-in-law spend money on her, but she wouldn't be happy to spend a penny on her own parents."
Jiang Mingli quickly stepped forward and said, "What are you thinking? How could I not be willing to spend money on my parents? I just didn't react. Let's go buy them an electric fan."
The two of them came to the place where electric fans were sold, and met Lin Yihao who had just paid the bill. Seeing that the aura between the brother and sister was not right, Lin Yihao quickly found an excuse to slip away after greeting them.
Is the relationship between these two siblings good or bad? If it's good, the atmosphere doesn't seem right, and there's not much brotherly love. If it's bad, they can still go shopping together in the department store.
Jiang Mingli wanted to make a quick decision, so he pointed to the cheapest one and planned to buy it.
Jiang Shushu pointed to the most expensive one and said, "Waiter, please help me try that one and see if it can turn."
Jiang Mingli had to swallow back what he was about to say.
Seeing that the electric fan was running normally, Jiang Shushu immediately turned to Jiang Mingli and said with a smile: "Brother, how about this one? The style and color are tailor-made for my parents, they will definitely like it." He still wanted to choose the cheapest one, but that was impossible.
"Isn't this one too big? It will be inconvenient for you to carry it back. This one is smaller and easier to carry. Let's buy this one." That one is worth two for the price of one. They are both fans. It's fine as long as they can blow air. Why buy one so expensive?
"It's okay, just put it in the car. What's so hard about it? We need something tall and big like this so it won't fall over. It's more suitable for my parents. If I buy a small one and it falls, my parents will be heartbroken. I guess they won't be able to sleep no matter how many electric fans they use."
Jiang Mingli: "..." Now that you've said that, what else can I say? Even if I say it, you probably won't listen!
"Then let's take this one!" Jiang Mingli took out 120 yuan and a ticket for an electric fan with a heartache.
I have never bought such an expensive electric fan in my life.
When Jiang Mingli took out the money and bills, Jiang Shushu noticed that there was quite a lot of money and bills in his bag.
Jiang Shushu's eyes rolled around, and he planned to get some more money.
After spending some time together just now, combined with the fragments in her memory, she could guess a little about Jiang Mingli's character. He cared about face and was selfish, but not completely bad. He had some filial piety, but not much. He would avoid taking care of the elderly if he could, and would pretend to be deaf and dumb if he could. But if faced with a head-on confrontation, he would do it for the sake of face if it was reasonable.
Jiang Mingli felt guilty today. If he wasn't allowed to bleed today, it would be difficult to make him bleed again tomorrow when he realized what was happening.
"Brother, could you please get the electric fan?" This thing weighs almost 30 kilograms, why not use it if you have the labor?
Jiang Shushu stood motionless at the place where cotton-padded clothes and trousers were sold.
"Why don't you leave? Let's go!"
"Brother, when I saw these cotton coats and trousers, I thought of my parents. They haven't had new clothes made for seven or eight years. They've been mending them for three years. Especially the cotton coats and trousers, they're all knotted. I just started working, and my parents were sick a while ago, so I spent all my money. I heard it's very cold this year. Can you buy them a set each? So they won't get cold this winter."
Jiang Mingli looked up at the waiter's gaze and touched his pocket with a heartbroken look. "What are you talking about? Do you even need to ask? Of course, I bought fans for my parents in the summer, so how could I not buy them cotton-padded clothes?"
"Thank you, brother."
Jiang Shushu described the height and body shape of Jiang He and his wife to the waiter and asked the waiter to find two sets of good quality.
Seeing how filial the brother and sister were, the waiter said something extra, "Do you have any shoes left? Thick Liberation shoes."
Jiang Shushu didn't hesitate for a second. "Yes, women's size 39, men's size 42."
The waiter also brought two pairs of thick Liberation shoes.
Waiter: "Shoes are three yuan each, cotton coats are 11 yuan each and 12 yuan each, cotton pants are 9.5 yuan each and 10 yuan each, all without coupons, total 48.5 yuan."
When Jiang Mingli heard the price, his heart ached. His monthly salary was gone. Jiang Mingli endured the pain and paid the money.
"Let's go!" Jiang Mingli learned his lesson this time. He picked up the electric fan and walked away, fearing that Jiang Shushu would suddenly stop somewhere.
But before he got far, Jiang Shushu called him back, "Brother, wait a minute."
Jiang Mingli knew that it was definitely not a good thing when he was called, so he pretended not to hear and continued walking towards the money.
Jiang Shushu yelled, "Jiang Mingli."
Jiang Mingli continued to move forward.
"Jiang Mingli carrying an electric fan."
My goodness! As soon as these words came out, Jiang Mingli felt that everyone around him was looking at him, making it impossible for him to move forward.
Jiang Mingli looked confused, as if he just realized that it was him who was called. So he turned around and walked towards Jiang Shushu, carrying the electric fan.
"Little sister, you called me? I was thinking about something and didn't pay attention. What do you want?"
"I see! I thought you were angry because you didn't want to buy clothes for your parents?"
"How come?"
"I was wrong about that, brother. My parents' quilt has been there for 30 years, and it's not warm at all. I just saw someone selling quilts, and they don't even need a ticket. It's really hard to find one. How about you buy a new quilt for my parents? I'm young and can handle the cold, so it's okay. But I'm worried they can't handle it. They just recovered from a serious illness. If it gets really cold this year and they get sick, they'll probably have to be hospitalized. Then neither of us will be able to work with peace of mind."
Jiang Mingli was originally thinking of reasons to refuse, but when he heard that he was sick and had to be hospitalized, he immediately changed his mind.
If they really get sick, the medical expenses might be more valuable than the quilt. Now my younger sister is such a person that if the two old people get sick, she will insist on me paying half of the money, and she might even ask me to take leave to go home and take care of them.
"Of course you do. Wait for me here. I'll go buy a quilt." Jiang Mingli quickly put down the electric fan and ran to the place where quilts were sold.
Damn, he ran so fast and still wanted to choose the most expensive bed. He really got it cheap.
Jiang Mingli came to the place where quilts were sold and directly chose the cheapest cotton quilt weighing eight kilograms, spending 25 yuan.
