Chapter 759 He is really awesome.
"I think everyone is tired. Otherwise, our trip will end here. There is a bus at the exit in front. Let's take the bus home. Wait until next time, when we have the opportunity, let's go "Want to finish the tour?"
"Okay, okay!" The four children rushed to agree.
On the way out, Chu Lin stared at the stall selling candied haws, unable to walk.
"What's wrong Chu Lin?" Xu Wanning asked softly.
Chu Lin looked up at her and asked in a sweet voice, "Auntie, the reward you gave me is my pocket money, right? Then can I use this pocket money myself?"
"Of course. Money. It’s already been given to Chu Lin. You can
spend it however you want.” “Then I want to buy candied haws.”
Just after Chu Lin finished speaking, Lin Quan disagreed: “The candied haws are made of sugar and hawthorn. They are sour and sweet. It doesn’t taste good. And you’re going to have a new tooth soon. If you eat too much sugar, you’ll get a toothache. Toothache is not a disease, but it can be fatal if you cry all day long. “
Chu Lin. The proposal was rejected by my mother. My whole body was like an eggplant beaten by frost, wilting, and exuding the aura of my unhappiness.
Lin Quan tried to catch Chu Lin and take him away, but Chu Lin avoided her clutches and held on to Lin's mother tightly without letting go.
Seeing this, Mother Lin hurriedly said: "It's really not good to eat too much candy, but our Chu Lin is obedient and doesn't usually eat much candy. Being able to ask today proves that the child really wants to eat candied haws. He eats it occasionally. What's wrong with Chulin? Are you going to reject his request because of something that didn't happen? "
Besides, Chu Lin just asked Xu Wanning if he could use his pocket money, and Lin Quan rejected Chu Lin.
Isn't this a clear slap in Xu Wanning's face? Lin Quan said hurriedly: "I don't mean that. I'm just worried..."
"What are you worried about? There will always be a day when you are going to die. If you worry about this and that all day long, just don't do anything and just feel at ease. You can wait for death at home."
Mother Lin took Chu Lin's hand and said, "Let's go, grandma will take you to buy candied haws."
Nowadays, there is only one type of candied haws, hawthorn.
Because sugar is a rare commodity, the price of candied haws on a stick is very high, selling for 30 cents a piece.
"How many do you want?"
Mother Lin's word "four" was already on her lips, but Chu Lin was counting on her fingers: "Three brothers, sisters and me, we want four. There are also grandma, aunt and mother, a total of Seven people. Boss, I want seven candied haws. "
"Okay, three cents each. Seven candied haws are two yuan and one cent."
Chu Lin didn't expect that he would spend the reward he just got. Halfway out, I was heartbroken.
But he still took out the money without hesitation, but his expression was particularly sad.
"Boss, we bought seven. Can we get rid of the ten cent change? My aunt and mother have a hard time making money."
The boss was amused by Chu Lin's tone. "Okay, okay, I think you bought it all at once." I'll give you a ten cent discount for the price of seven. It's delicious. Come again next time."
Chu
Lin hugged the candied haws with satisfaction and found the group.
"Grandma has one, aunt has one, mom has one, brother Songhan, sister Jinchu, and sister all have one."
After Chu Lin finished dividing all the candied haws, he ate his own one happily.
It's so sweet, it's sweet to the core of my heart.
Xu Wanning held the candied haws in her hand and asked with a smile: "Candied haws, aren't they cheap? They cost at least 30 cents each. Chu Lin bought seven of them at once. Did he spend more than half of his pocket money?"
Chu Lin asked. The candied haws in it made a crunching sound. After he swallowed it, he said: "The troops my aunt mentioned were not more than half gone, but half. Seven candied haws cost two yuan and a dime. I negotiated the price with the boss, and he had less You charged me a dime."
Xu Wanning didn't expect to hear this from Chu Lin, and she immediately said, "Bargaining? Did our Chu Lin negotiate the price?"
Mother Lin smiled as she described Chu Lin and the vendor just now. dialogue.
"Not only can I negotiate prices, but I can't even learn how to talk fluently. Our Chu Lin is really good!"
Listening to the praise from his grandmother and aunt, Chu Lin raised his neck proudly.
He can bargain.
He is the only child in the family besides his aunt and mother who can bargain.
He is so awesome!
Xu Wanning was really surprised.
Because individual vendors only emerged after the country's economic opening up, they used to be in places such as supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores. They bought with bills and money, and basically paid the price according to the price.
The children in the family were probably exposed to bargaining before summer, when Lin Quan went to sell posters and melon seeds in front of the cinema, and Xu Wanning once mentioned bargaining.
I didn't take it seriously at the time, but I didn't expect that Chu Lin heard it and even learned it.
Although the price was only a dime, Xu Wanning was deeply surprised and shocked that Chu Lin dared to say this.
She stretched out her hand and pinched Chu Lin's chubby cheeks, "Our Chu Lin is great! From now on, when aunt goes out to buy things, she will take Chu Lin with her. Chu Lin can help aunt negotiate the price, okay? With Chu Lin's help, aunt can save A lot of money."
Chu Lin patted his chest proudly: "Don't worry, aunt, I can definitely save money for aunt."
In the front, Xu Wanning and Chu Lin were talking and laughing, and behind, Lin Quan stared at the two walking side by side. His back was slightly furrowed, his eyes were solemn, and he didn’t know what he was thinking.
Mother Lin noticed that Lin Quan had not spoken for a long time, so she deliberately took a step behind, bumped Lin Quan with her shoulder, and asked in a low voice: "What are you thinking about?"
"Mom, do you feel that whether it is Chu Nian or Chu Lin? "My two children are closer to my sister-in-law?"
Take what happened just now. When Chu Lin gave the candied haws, he gave it to Xu Wanning first and then to Lin Quan.
If Chu Lin was still angry with Lin Quan for not letting him eat candied haws, it would be okay once or twice, but every time, when he sorted things out, Xu Wanning would always be ranked in front of Lin Quan.
Could it be that in his fixed mindset, his aunt is far more important than his mother?
As soon as this realization came out, Lin Quan felt his heart swell, he couldn't breathe for a long time, and he felt an indescribable feeling of suffocation.
After hearing Lin Quan's words, Mother Lin immediately looked at her solemnly.
"Lin Quan, how can you think so?"
"Try your conscience and think about it. Although your sister-in-law is as busy as you, does she devote far more energy and financial resources to the children than you do? ? "
"If your sister-in-law wasn't so generous, what qualifications would you, a married daughter, have to live in her house with her children? "
"More than that, every time she bought something good, there was no one without you and Chu Nian. From Chu Lin?
