Dreaming of Lion Rock: Recipe in Hand

Chapter 162 Shopping

The next day, Chunni said goodbye to Qianjin and went out with her grandparents. Qianjin's family had to prepare for the wedding, so there were many things to do.

Chunni first found a place to have morning tea. Then she strolled in this ancient yet young city. The three of them walked along the streets with arcades, listening to grandparents telling stories of the past. When they were tired, they sat by the long embankment, feeling the cool breeze, watching the vendors carrying loads passing by, and the sound of the wave drums could be heard from far away.

"Life is really going to get better!" Old Master Chu couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes! If the policies are good from above, the people below will have an easier life." Old Mrs. Chu's weathered face was filled with satisfaction.

"I don't know if the fruit is delicious." After resting enough, Old Master Chu prepared to buy some fresh fruits to try.

Old Mrs. Chu took Chunni's hand and said helplessly, "Your grandpa is delicious! I can't change it in my life."

Chunni thought that it was no big deal if it tasted good. She had heard of people losing their fortunes gambling on antiques, but she had never heard of anyone losing their fortune just because it tasted good.

“It’s delicious and there’s nothing wrong with that.”

Old Mrs. Chu also knew that her granddaughter was also a delicious food, so she smiled and tapped her forehead.

Chunni and her friends went to the clothing wholesale market. It was a rare opportunity to come here, so how could they not do some shopping?

"Grandma, look at this pair of jeans. Isn't it nice? Let me see if there is a size that matches yours."

"Hurry up, this is good-looking and trendy for you young people, but it doesn't look good for grandma at her age to wear this."

Old Mrs. Chu has a ladylike air in her bones, and she is a little restrained. Old Man Chu is different, he goes with whatever is fashionable. He wants a set of denim clothes, and he also wants to match them with leather shoes and a cowboy hat. He wants a baseball jacket, and he wants to match them with a pair of Warrior shoes. He wants to buy a suit, and he wants to wear it to the wedding. Floral shirts are nice, bell-bottom pants are also good, and sunglasses are fashionable, he wants them all. He also enthusiastically helped the old lady match a few sets of clothes. Old Mrs. Chu also believed in his vision, so she let him do it.

Chunni doesn't need to match anything, she just needs to pay.

Old Master Chu also did not forget to buy some clothes for Qiu Guo, Dong Lin and the missing Xia Zhi. Of course, Chun Ni and He Yan Qing also got some. Then he took a taxi back to the hotel.

"It's such a pity that Dong Lin didn't come." Old Master Chu felt very sympathetic towards his poor little grandson who was left all alone in Lion Mountain.

"You old man, Dong Lin will be in the third grade next year, so naturally his studies are the most important!" Old Mrs. Chu felt sorry for her grandson, but she also knew that studies were the most important thing.

"Grandpa, let's pick out two sets of clothes to wear these days, and send the rest by mail, right?" Seeing that the old couple were about to quarrel again, Chunni hurriedly interrupted them.

Old Master Chu was very happy with his shopping today. He looked radiant and waved his hand, "You can arrange these small matters yourself. Have a good rest today. Tomorrow we will go to the Friendship Store to see if there are any new things."

"Old lady, let's go back to the room and don't disturb Ni'er's rest. You are so young, but your physical strength is not as good as an old man like me."

Chunni admitted that she was not as stamina as the old man. She would sleep until she woke up naturally every day, unlike the old man, who had to get up in the morning for morning exercises even though he was old!

Chunni stood up and walked them to the door, waving her hand, "Grandpa and grandma, you guys take a rest first, I'll call you later when it's time for dinner."

The old couple of the Chu family turned and went into the next room.

The next day, Old Master Chu came to call Chunni to get up in high spirits!

"Ni'er, Ni'er, get up quickly. Let's go eat rice noodle rolls. Let's go to the department store first, and then go to the Friendship Store."

Chunni hid her head in the quilt. She was exhausted yesterday and didn't want to get up! But the two people at the door were her grandparents! She couldn't refuse!

The three of them first went to the hotel lobby to call Chu Hua, and made an appointment to come to Yangcheng tomorrow, and then went to eat rice rolls.

After finishing his long-awaited rice noodle rolls, Old Master Chu looked very satisfied. "For lunch, let's go eat seafood. Grandpa will treat us."

"Well, I haven't even eaten in the morning, but I'm already thinking about noon. It's like I haven't had a full meal in my entire life." Mrs. Chu didn't want to look at the old man. It was really embarrassing! He was so embarrassed that he even came to Guangzhou!

The department store in Yangcheng may be affected by the market economy, and its business is not as good as that in Tuoxian. Because there are more small vendors outside, people have more diversified ways to buy goods. As a result, the goods in the department store are cheaper than those in his hometown. After choosing from left to right, Old Master Chu chose a table clock.

"This clock is good. It looks a bit like the ones we hung in the homes of wealthy families in Shanghai back then. It is beautiful and practical." Old Master Chu said confidently.

"Those fabrics are good, durable, with nice patterns and colors, and they feel comfortable to the touch. It's a pity that my eyesight is not very clear, otherwise I would make you two sets of clothes." Mrs. Chu is old and has a little blurry eyesight. Chunni has long stopped her from touching needles and threads. She runs a clothing store herself, so how can she not have clothes to wear.

"We'll go to the Friendship Store tomorrow and wait for your aunt to come and make her bleed profusely." Old Master Chu had thought it all out.

"When is the good day for moving forward?" Old Mrs. Chu asked Chunni.

"I asked last night. The day after tomorrow is a good day."

"Okay, I still have time to go around tomorrow."

The sun was high in the sky, bringing warmth. Old Master Chu couldn't help but sigh: "Yangcheng is a really nice place. It's November, but it's not cold at all."

It is more comfortable to spend the winter in Hainan. I will definitely go there when conditions permit!

The three of them had a seafood feast at noon, and then slowly walked to the hotel. The old couple of the Chu family did not go out in the afternoon, and Chunni went to the clothing wholesale market with Yang Bangming. She hadn't been here for a long time, so she still wanted to take a look at the latest popular styles to get a good idea of ​​them.

"Brother, will you come back for the New Year?" Chunni asked her cousin who had been transformed.

Qianjin is going to hold his wedding here, and Yang Bangming, as his cousin, will definitely attend.

Yang Bangming, who had been the boss for half a year, no longer looked frail as he did in his early years. He stood there straight and had a slight dignity. He put out the cigarette in his hand, threw it on the ground and stepped on it, then said: "Why don't you go back? The brothers also need a vacation. We have been out for half a year and we all miss home."

Chunni was very happy, "Then the village will be lively. Will you come again next year?"

Yang Bangming said without hesitation, "Come, why not come."

"What about my sister-in-law? It's impossible for the couple to be separated for a long time!"

"She has to stay at home to take care of the children." After the words came out of his mouth, Yang Bangming felt something was wrong. Yes, the last time Chunni got married and he went back, he always felt that there was a distance between him and his wife.

After thinking for a while, Yang Bangming said: "It is difficult to be both loyal and filial! If you want everything, you will get nothing in the end. However, I will consider this matter carefully."

Chunni said nothing more when she saw this.

After visiting the clothing wholesale market, Yang Bangming spoke again, "I thought, why not buy a house in Yangcheng so that we can have a place to stay during holidays. If your sister-in-law wants to come and play for two months, she will also have a place to stay."

Chunni's eyes lit up. Yes, my uncle and his wife probably wouldn't come all the way here to live. My sister-in-law has to take care of the elderly and the children, so she can't stay here for a long time. But after buying a house, she can come and live for a month or two from time to time and reunite with her.

Chunni thought about the account she had just reported to her cousin. She had received quite a lot of dividends in the past six months. She might as well buy a house in Yangcheng while the house price was low. Thinking about the sky-high prices of houses in Yangcheng in the future, Chunni secretly thought that she might as well buy a piece of land and build two houses.

"Brother, please keep an eye out for me. I also want to buy a house, just like Shaohong's. It's best if it has its own door and yard. Newly built is fine, but older ones are fine, too. If you come across any land, please keep an eye out for me."

Yang Bangming glanced at Chunni, not quite understanding what she meant. However, it was her own money, so she could spend it however she wanted.

The next day, Chu Hua also rushed to the Pearl River Hotel and took his parents and niece out for a big meal. Then he heard his father say he wanted to go to the Friendship Store, so he took a taxi and went there without saying anything.

"Dad, Mom, Chunni, don't hesitate to take anything you see later." Chu Hua acted like a wealthy woman who was in charge of everything. Well, she was really rich.

Old Master Chu looked at his youngest daughter with satisfaction, threw the crutches to Chunni, and rushed into the crowd quickly.

Chunni...

Old Master Chu took a fancy to two watches, which were made in Switzerland and were ridiculously expensive, but Chu Hua bought them without blinking an eye.

"One for the old woman and one for me. Haha, now it's good. I will never forget the time when fishing again."

Chunni felt that she didn't have anything to buy. Chu Hua took matters into her own hands and bought a silk scarf for Chunni and Qiuguo, and selected some perfume and lipstick. She even didn't forget to buy two ties for He Yanqing.

The group really returned with a lot of gains!
