My daughter is smart!
........
On Saturday, He Tingchuan didn't take a day off. Yun Jin invited Li Aimei and Xiao Niangao to take the bus to the city to buy things.
When Li Aimei learned that her older brother was getting married and that Yun Jin had come to give her a wedding gift, she hesitated, saying, "Should I buy a gift too? I don't have much money on me."
"I'll lend it to you." Yun Jin is rich. Ever since she got her uncle's money back, Yun Jin is not short of money now.
In addition, He Tingchuan's salary increased significantly after his promotion. It used to be around one hundred yuan, but now it's one hundred and fifty yuan. With that extra fifty yuan, she can buy quite a lot of things every month.
The purchasing power of 150 yuan is equivalent to the purchasing power of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan in later times.
Yun Jin is definitely not short of money.
Li Aimei looked at Yun Jin gratefully: "Thank you, sister-in-law. I'll pay you back as soon as I earn money."
Yun Jin smiled and nodded.
The two arrived at the People's Department Store, a place Yun Jin was quite familiar with, and Xiao Niangao had been there before as well.
Yun Jin thought about the gift Li Aiguo gave them when they got married. If it was too bad, she felt embarrassed to give it; if it was too good, she felt like she was losing out.
Finally, I bought a hollow peanut weighing two grams at the gold shop.
It signifies that something good is about to happen.
I paid a few cents more for a gift box to keep it.
Gold prices have been good this year.
Yun Jin was happy to give Li Aiguo a little more money.
Seeing Yun Jin buying gold, Li Aimei was conflicted, unsure of what to buy.
Knowing that Li Aimei was short of money and embarrassed to borrow too much from her, Yun Jin said, "Since you've already lent it, it doesn't matter if it's just ten or eight yuan. I think that necklace is nice, why don't you buy one for your future sister-in-law?"
"37 yuan, that's so expensive. I don't even know if I'll be able to earn 37 yuan a month in the future!" Li Aimei didn't dare to take on such a debt. Even if Yun Jin didn't urge her to repay the money, Li Aimei would still feel embarrassed.
Finally, they went to the mall and wandered around again and again, only to find that everything in the mall was more and more expensive than the last. She couldn't afford watches, radios, or sewing machines.
I looked at the wall clock, and it cost several tens of yuan.
As for pots, pans, and other kitchenware, those will be sent as part of the dowry.
I won't use it even if I buy it.
In the end, Li Aimei realized that Yun Jin's suggestion was the best.
Especially Yun Jin's line: Is it better to buy gold as a store of value or jewelry? It looks good when you wear it, and you can sell it for money later. As for pots and pans, they just break when they break.
Thinking of this, Li Aimei gritted her teeth, stamped her foot, and looked pitifully at Yun Jin: "Sister-in-law, please lend me more money!"
