Chapter 130 Buying Gifts

Liu Xiaoru never expected that there would be such wealth and honor falling from the sky during the Dragon Boat Festival.

She took one hundred taels of silver and divided it up on the spot. She and Zhang Yunniang each got thirty taels, and Niu Niu was given forty taels. This distribution method was completely based on the shares occupied in the shop.

"Thanks to Niuniu's reminder, I didn't think of suing the official, otherwise I wouldn't have any money to get it. I'll give Niu Niu another ten taels of silver as a thank you." Liu Xiaoru took the initiative and took out ten taels of silver notes and gave it to Niu Niu.

Zhang Yunniang directly stopped Liu Xiaoru from trying every possible means to give money to Niu Niu. .

"This is Niuniu's shop too. She should do something. Don't give her money for any reason."

When Liu Xiaoru saw that the gift of money failed, she suddenly looked regretful.

Niu Niu raised her hand and wanted to give the money to Zhang Yunniang for safekeeping.

Zhang Yunniang smiled and said, "Keep it yourself."

After Niu Niu learned that she could freely spend such a large amount of money, she did not save it like lucky money. She proudly said to her family on the spot: "Go shopping? I'm treating you!"

Liu Xiaoru knelt down, deliberately teasing Niu Niu, and said, "I don't want children to treat me."

Niu Niu asked very seriously: "Don't Aunt Liu like me?"

Liu Xiaoru immediately asked: "Why do you say that? How could I not like Niu Niu? I like Niu Niu the most."

Niu Niu tilted her little head and said solemnly: "My mother said that any relationship can only last long if it comes and goes. Aunt Liu is good to me, and I am good to Aunt Liu, so that we can always be good friends."

When Liu Xiaoru heard this, her heart felt like it was lightly burned by something.

Zhang Yunniang patted her gently and said, "Children have filial piety. As the elders, why bother to stop her."

Gu Zhao had been listening to their conversation with open ears. When he heard Zhang Yunniang's statement, he immediately asked: "Mom, do you really agree to my sister's treat?"

Zhang Yunniang nodded lightly.

Gu Zhao immediately looked happy and began to think about what he wanted: "I want to buy sugar figures, sugar paintings..."

But then he said: "You are not allowed to buy anything more than ten cents, and you are not allowed to buy candy! Do you still want your teeth?"

Gu Zhao immediately grimaced and whispered, "Mom is so stingy."

Zhang Yunniang raised her hand and knocked on her youngest son's forehead.

Niu Niu walked majestically at the front. She carried a large banknote and looked like the richest man in Guang'an County.

"This dress comes in two colors, pink for Aunt Liu and light green for my mother!" Niu Niu said to the proprietress in the clothing store with her head raised.

The proprietress still remembered Niuniu. They had bought spring shirts in her store before.

"Niuniu, you have to pay to buy things. Do you have any money?" the landlady asked with a smile.

The richest man, Niuniu, looked back at the family behind her and said with great enthusiasm: "I have money! I want to buy clothes for the whole family!"

Liu Xiaoru didn't want to take advantage of this, and she always wanted to pick cheap clothes when buying clothes. However, Niu Niu fell in love with the most conspicuous dress in the shop at a glance, so she almost rolled on the floor and asked her to try it on.

Zhang Yuniang advised from the side: "My child is really filial, so just bear with it."

Liu Xiaoru covered her heart and said, "I don't want her to spend too much money. I always feel uneasy."

Zhang Yuniang understood her mentality very well and said: "Just get used to it. Although we are elders, elders are also human beings. We also want to wear beautiful clothes and eat delicious food. If we just leave all the good things to the younger generations, it will become worse over time." , but they feel that their elders are not worthy of enjoying good things.”

What Zhang Yunniang said is undoubtedly contrary to the mainstream concept.

When the world talks about parents, they always talk about how hard they endure and how much they sacrifice for their children, but rarely pay attention to their human side.

"The younger generation is truly filial, and the elder is happy to accept it. Only in this way can it be considered complete filial piety." Zhang Yuniang said.

Zhang Yunniang's two-way filial piety concept was deafening to Liu Xiaoru's ears. Niuniu not only bought clothes for them, but also bought clothes for her grandparents and Gu Mingda who didn't come.

But when she was about to buy clothes for her two brothers, Zhang Yunniang stopped her and said, "Your father and I are here to buy clothes for my brothers. Just buy them some snacks."

Zhang Yunniang knew very well that snacks only cost a few pennies, but the price of clothes was not cheap. Neither Gu Yan nor Gu Zhao had as much money as Niu Niu. The two brothers couldn't come up with a return gift of equal value, so it was better not to let them accept their sister at all. Such a valuable gift.

Zhang Yuniang felt that being filial to elders and being filial to brothers were two different things. She still remembered what happened to Liu Erni and did not want to raise her daughter to have a character that only wanted to help her brothers. She was also afraid that her sons would get used to taking advantage of their younger sisters and become useless. brother.

Niu Niu whispered: "But my brothers usually take good care of me. I want to buy them clothes."

Zhang Yunniang touched the small knot on her daughter's head and whispered: "If you buy new clothes for your brothers, they will definitely be eager to give you new clothes. They will have to empty their wallets to buy them. Sorry, your eldest brother has no money to buy his favorite books, and your third brother has no money to buy snacks. Isn’t it pitiful? "

"I can buy them books and snacks. I have a lot of money." Niuniu said.

Zhang Yuniang said with a smile: "I praised you for your good memory, but you forgot what you just said? Any relationship has its backs and forths, and it will not last long as long as one party continues to give."

Niu Niu suddenly became dejected, sighed heavily, and said: "When it comes to the people you like, you just want to be good to them. If you see what you want, you should give it to them. How can you think about how much you get?"

Zhang Yuniang does not want her daughter to develop the habit of giving casually. She understands better than anyone else that if a woman wants to live well in this world, the most important thing is to have a clear mind.

Niuniu suddenly raised her head, looked at Zhang Yunniang, and whispered: "Mom, you must like me very much. When you took me home, you never seemed to think about getting anything."

Zhang Yuniang was startled when she heard this.

Niu Niu added: "Although Mom has never asked me to do anything, I must be very, very good to Mom. Niu Niu likes Mom the most!"

Zhang Yuniang could never stand her daughter's sweet words. After hearing these words, she wanted to buy all the good things she saw and give them to Niu Niu.

Niu Niu spent money to buy clothes for her elders. Mrs. Gu did not expect to receive Niu Niu's filial piety so soon.

She put on the newly bought ready-made clothes on the spot, and almost said to someone she met: "Have you seen this dress of mine? My little granddaughter bought it. She is a filial child. I want her to spend less money and she will return it." I’m not happy, there’s really nothing I can do about her!”

Liu Xiaoru only found it funny when she saw Mrs. Gu's behavior, but she did not hesitate to give in. Every time she met an acquaintance, she would show off the new clothes she was carrying, and then explain calmly: "My sweet baby bought it for me. I don't want it even if I don't want it."

Then she would reveal the golden sheep pendant around her neck and show off again: "Guobao won this for me specially."

Even the stupid old man Gu would pull on his new clothes and emphasize in a vague voice: "New clothes...Niuniu...Niuniu bought them!"

The whole family went to the market in a grand way and arrived at the old place.

Niuniu's eyes suddenly lit up. She pointed to the Guanpu stall not far away, where many people gathered around her, and asked Zhang Yunniang: "Mom, it's a holiday today, can I play?"

Gu Zhao was also very excited and joined the Waimao team on the spot; "Mom, I want to play too, and I also want to get good things for you!"

Mrs. Gu also looked moved and said, "Mother Yun, it's the festival. If the children want to play, let them play. At worst, let them use their own money."

Zhang Yunniang glanced at everyone. Liu Xiaoru was already looking at the stall with half of her body. Even the young and mature Gu Yan had a look of emotion on his face at this time.

"Children can only play three times with their own money." Zhang Yunniang said helplessly.

Niu Niu let out a cheer on the spot.

Gu Zhao had a sad face, because he had already spent all his money, so he could only borrow money pitifully from his brother and sister.

After borrowing the money, Gu Zhao started shaking again and said to Niu Niu: "Niu Niu, look at what you want, and I'll win it back for you!"

As soon as the Gu family squeezed into the crowd, they saw the familiar two brothers at the stall.

The stall owner, who is the elder brother, took out a gold hairpin and said: "Twenty cents a time! Don't miss it when you pass by! For only twenty cents, you can take away this gold hairpin worth five taels!"

As soon as the stall owner finished shouting, he turned around and saw Niu Niu who had squeezed to the front. He instantly recalled the painful past and was so frightened that he almost closed the stall and ran away!
