Chapter 167 Shopping

"Lazy father, lazy father, too lazy, such a big man can't carry things, let a weak woman like mother carry things, it's embarrassing!" Guoguo scratched his nose beside him.

In Chen Bing's heart, Guoguo is a treasure.

"Baby, Dad didn't ask your mother to buy it. Your mother bought it herself."

After Chen Bing spoke, Guoguo said in a childish voice, "Dad, can you blame mom? Who told you not to stay at home all day? Mom said that our home is your hotel. If you want to come back, you can come back. don't want to come back."

After hearing this, Yang Xue gave Guoguo a hard look: "Guoguo, don't talk nonsense!"

"Mom, you said that!" Guoguo pursed her mouth, ready to cry.

Chen Bing saw that the baby was about to cry, so he hurriedly said, "Guoguo, don't cry, blame mom, wait a while, dad puts down the flour and beats mom for you!"

Guoguo laughed when she heard that Chen Bing was going to beat her mother.

"Just get used to her!" Yang Xue ran towards the house after finishing speaking.

Chen Bing hurriedly followed, and when he got home, he put the flour on the ground.

"Let's go, we haven't bought the New Year's goods yet, so hurry up and buy them"

Chen Bing knew that the eighties and 90s were an era when supplies were relatively scarce, that is, New Year's goods, if you stretch your hands slowly, they might be gone.

Yang Xue said: "Okay, since you won't be going home this year, let's buy some more food. You've been working hard for a year. I'll make you some delicious meals during the Chinese New Year!"

Chen Bing nodded slightly.

In Yang Xue's memory, during the Chinese New Year a few years ago, the family really ate their last meal, and the poor money they earned was already squandered by trash Chen Bing. How could there be any spare money for the New Year? To be honest, if you have a bag of white flour for Chinese New Year, then you will burn a lot of incense, but this year, to be honest, after the usual expenses, I still have more than 300 yuan in my pocket.

The more than 300 yuan is a huge sum of money to Yang Xue.

"Let's go, take a snakeskin bag." Chen Bing said.

The three of them ran towards the department store.

On the way, Guoguo said in a childish voice, "Dad, can I ask you something?"

When Chen Bing heard this, the precious daughter begged himself for something, and hurriedly said: "Guoguo, what do you want daddy to do, tell me!"

"Dad, look at my clothes are all torn, the sleeves are so short, Guoguo's arms are freezing!"

Chen Bing laughed loudly after hearing this: "Xiao Nizi wants new clothes, dad will buy them for you!" '

Before Chen Bing finished speaking, Yang Xue said: "Where is the clothes broken? Why is the clothes too short? This was just bought by your father when he came back from Qinjiang City. After wearing it for a month, why did it break? purchase!"

As soon as Yang Xue said that, Guoguo immediately frowned and cried: "Mom is bad, mother is bad!"

Chen Bing laughed and said, "Baby, don't cry, Dad will buy it for you!"

Yang Xue was speechless, and said: "Bingzi, just let her get used to it, you said, you just bought this dress, and after wearing it for a few days, it is said to be old, children can't grow Zhang It’s a problem of talking nonsense, so today, you can’t buy anything!”

Hearing Yang Xue's tone, Guoguo stared at Chen Bing's face with small eyes: "Father, should I buy it or not?"

If Chen Bing said not to buy it, she would immediately cry.

Yang Xue took the words and said, "Don't buy it, don't buy it!"

"Wow!" Guoguo cried.

Chen Bing wants to coax again.

Yang Xue directly took Guoguo from Chen Bing: "Don't cry, I'll count to three, if you cry, I'll throw you in the field!"

After Yang Xue said that, Guoguo really stopped crying: "Mom, bad!"

"Stop talking nonsense?" Yang Xue asked.

"Stop talking!"

"I have told you since I was a child that children must never tell lies. You are still telling lies with your eyes open today. Let me tell you that this is the last time. There will be another time. Let's see how I deal with you!"

Yang Xue's series of actions hurt Chen Bing to the bone. Seeing that Yang Xue had finished criticizing, he quickly hugged Guoguo.

Guoguo seemed very afraid of Yang Xue, and after being reprimanded by Yang Xue, she never dared to mention new clothes again.

Chen Bing and Yang Xue came to the department store and bought a lot of things.

Chen Bing found that as long as he bought things by himself, Yang Xue would definitely tremble all over. He knew that Yang Xue was afraid of spending money.

Chen Bing directly took out 2000 yuan from his pocket, held it in his hand, and said to Yang Xue: "This year's New Year's goods are only 2000 yuan, and I will spend it all!"

Chen Bing’s words almost scared Yang Xue to death. That’s 2000 yuan. My monthly salary is only 75. After a year, it’s still less than 1000 yuan. This 2000 yuan is more than my two-year salary. Chen Bing even said, New Year's goods, the 2000 yuan will be spent?
She knew that Chen Bing was rich, but no matter how rich he was, he couldn't make it like this. If it continued like this, even if there were gold and silver mountains, it would have to be spent.

"Bingzi, 2000 yuan is too much, you can't do this, it's so hard to earn money now!"

Chen Bing nodded slightly: 'I know that. '

Chen Bing knows whether the current money is good or not.

For Chen Bing now, money is very easy to earn. Only in 2021 will he understand how difficult it is to earn money.

Chen Bing didn't look Yang Xue in the eye anymore, he bought a lot of things, including pork, beef and mutton, peanuts, melon seeds, sugar, food and use, and divided them into three equal parts.

"Bingzi, why are you buying three copies?" Yang Xue asked.

"It's Chinese New Year, prepare more New Year's goods, keep one for us, one for your natal family to pick up, and another for home!"

The home Chen Bing mentioned was, of course, the trash Chen Bing's home.

After Chen Bing spoke, Yang Xue had tears in her eyes.

After shopping, I couldn't get it because I bought too much. Chen Bing is now a celebrity. Liu Dake, the manager of the department store, asked someone to help Chen Bing transport it home.

When he was about to go home, Chen Bing turned his head and saw that Guoguo was gone.

This frightened Chen Bing and Yang Xue into a complete mess.

"Where's Guoguo?" Chen Bing asked anxiously.

"Guoguo, I don't know, wasn't she still there just now?"

However, at that time, some people stole boys, and few people stole girls.

"Guoguo!" Chen Bing's cry was full of tears.

At this moment, Guoguo's little head appeared from behind a piece of clothing: "Dad, where am I?" '

Chen Bing hurried over and hugged Guoguo tightly in his arms.

"Dad, this dress is so beautiful!"

When Chen Bing saw Guoguo, he didn't know when he had already put on a child's clothing on her body.

Department stores back then sold everything, including clothes.

At this time, Yang Xue also ran over, saw Guoguo, and was about to hit her with her palm, but Chen Bing quickly stopped her: "What are you doing?"

"Comrade, how much is this dress?" Chen Bing asked directly.

"Five yuan!"

"Okay, five yuan!" Chen Bing took out five yuan.

"Are you really buying it?" Yang Xue said.

"Buy, what do I make money for, not for my little princess, she just doesn't want the sun in the sky, I will do it for her!" Chen Bing said.
