Chapter 132: Preparing a Gift
Many days have passed since the last turmoil, and Huo Dagui has not recovered from it. I often work alone in a daze, and I am stunned when I eat.
Even a sluggish person like Horu sensed it, and everyone in the family began to worry.
Li Cuilian held a family meeting behind Huo Dagui's back, feeling that this was not a good sign. Something must be done to make the old man happy: "People of this age can live for as many years." And after his brothers got married, they were all separated, and he, an old man, just couldn't get over the hurdles in his heart. This year's May Day happens to be his birthday, and our family has never had a birthday, so I gave him one this year. Don't tell him if your family buys something!"
Although Li Cuilian has a lot of problems with this woman, she is actually very concerned about her children and her husband. Maybe this is everyone's weakness, watching Li Cuilian try to make Huo Dagui happy. Kou Xi thinks that this may be the ultimate goal of marriage, so let's come to husband and wife less often.
Li Cuilian did not forget Huo Jiaojiao, and asked Huo Jiaojiao to bring the two children over to celebrate the old man's birthday. Huo Jiaojiao brought Qian Dun'er over in advance, saying that Qian Duoduo had chickenpox at home, and Qian Ming was watching it. just took this opportunity to bring Qian Dun'er out, because he was afraid that his sister's chickenpox would infect his brother.
Huo Dagui didn't care, he didn't know that this was a surprise specially made for him. I just thought that Huo Jiaojiao led the child back to avoid chickenpox, and she was just as happy. Zhang Luo bought a lot of food and play, and let Qian Dun'er lead his younger brothers and sisters to play at home.
Qian Dun'er is a big child, and he is no longer willing to lead Huo Tianyi out to run stupidly. begged Huo Jiaojiao, who was going to go shopping in the city, to take her, and said that she wanted to go to Xinhua Bookstore to read books.
When Huo Jiaojiao heard that her son had such a request, she hurriedly took it as if it were a holy decree. She begged Kou Xi to accompany her, and the two adults and children got on the bus early in the morning and went straight to the city.
On the way to the city, Huo Jiaojiao admitted frankly that she wanted to buy Huo Dagui a black short-sleeved shirt to wear. And it should be the kind that looks foreign, has good quality, but is cheap.
"What are you going to buy for our father?" Huo Jiaojiao looked curious: "You have seen a lot of the world, you will definitely be able to buy good things." ”
Kou Xi said frankly: "I want to buy a birthday cake for the old man and eat it on his birthday tomorrow." Then buy him a pair of reading glasses, even if you don't need it now and in the future. ”
Huo Jiaojiao sighed and started a new 'teaching': "You are too young and have been married for a young age. I don't know if this is to buy things for the elders, especially the in-laws, there are a lot of things to pay attention to. ”
Kou Xi looked surprised: "What's so exquisite?"
"You said you bought something to eat and play, did it go away after eating? Who knows that you bought something to honor the old man, and the old man forgot about it after he finished eating. The last turn and said that you don't honor him, you don't have him in your heart. ”
As soon as these words came out, Kou Xi immediately understood what this meant, no wonder Huo Jiaojiao wanted to buy clothes for her father to wear.
"You buy reading glasses, to put it bluntly, the old man can use it at home, that is, when he looks at a medicine box. Whoever usually goes out has a reading glasses stuck in their eyes, how amusing. You will buy something for our dad in the future, and you don't buy food and don't give money. You buy things that work, and you have to use them. You have to make it visible to others, and our dad can remember that you bought it as soon as he uses it. That's it!" Huo Jiaojiao looked at Kou Xi proudly after speaking, and a smile appeared on her face, as if to say, "Look, I'm amazing!"
"It's still the eldest sister who is amazing, she is really experienced. I never thought that I would waste money by buying things blindly!" Kou Xi's stupid expression was very useful to Huo Jiaojiao.
"You have been competing with this mother-in-law for three years at your mother-in-law's house, and you will understand everything. I'm telling you, that's what this man is. When it's good, I can't wait for the two of them to wear a pair of pants. When it's not good, dig up all the 18 generations of your ancestors! You say that you are filial to your mother-in-law, but whoever sees it, what do you do with it? When people scold you, what do you do? There is no basis for what you say!"
Huo Jiaojiao talked about her experience: "The concubines in our family will turn over their small intestines as soon as they fight. Later, I learned well, and I bought clothes for the old lady. If you fight with me again, I'll say I bought whatever I bought, and I bought whatever I bought. Why don't I be filial, I am more filial than all of you. That's what you see, and what you haven't seen. ”
Kou Xi nodded, and said in his heart that this trick was especially suitable for dealing with Li Cuilian. The woman turned her face faster than she could turn a book. And he likes to reverse black and white, and he definitely can't do it if he doesn't guard against it.
When she arrived in the city, Huo Jiaojiao had long forgotten the Xinhua bookstore that her son wanted to go to. dragged Kou Xi to the market to sell clothes, and the left and right looked endless.
"Didn't you buy clothes for our dad?" You see all women's clothes!" Kou Xi pulled Huo Jiaojiao: "Let's go, let's buy Dad's clothes first!"
Huo Jiaojiao touched the dress on the hanger, and her face was full of like: "Oh, you let me try it." ”
Kou Xi looked at Huo Jiaojiao's figure, short and thick, not to mention that her breasts were not too big, and her buttocks seemed to have a big cauldron. She had a yellow-haired and black-skinned face, which was not suitable for that color at all.
"Poof!ha!" The seller hung up a cloth curtain, and Huo Jiaojiao sat in the curtain to change clothes. When she came out, Qian Dun'er took the lead in smiling unkindly.
Kou Xi shook his head at Huo Jiaojiao: "It's not good-looking, don't buy it!"
"Why doesn't it look good!" The seller saw that his business was about to be lost, and hurriedly praised him with a three-inch tongue.
"How good this little dress is, how foreign it is to wear on your sister. Let me tell you eldest sister, don't look at you fat, your body is very evenly proportioned. Wearing this skirt doesn't show your belly at all, and you can also cover the meat on your buttocks. The point is, it looks very rich and foreign, and it fits well and looks good. After speaking, he said: "The color is also suitable for you, don't take it off, you see how good it looks generous!"
Kou Xi rolled his eyes, he had also gone out to work in the past. I have also sold goods in this kind of place, and this kind of saying is used by anyone. Regardless of whether she is arrogant, fat and thin, she will sell her clothes to you first.
Huo Jiaojiao is obviously this kind of person, and she doesn't have any opinions when buying clothes. Obviously, I came to buy an old man's shirt, but I had to take a walk around the women's clothing area. It doesn't matter if there is a demand for this dress, if the seller says it looks good, then buy it. I bought it and put it there without wearing it, or I sighed and regretted it.
"What do you think?" Huo Jiaojiao looked at Kou Xi, who had many years of experience and understood it. Huo Jiaojiao thinks the price is too expensive, and she doesn't have too much of a matching style. I was embarrassed to say that I didn't want it, so I gave this opportunity to Kou Xi.
"It's not good-looking, take it off, and look at other houses!" As soon as Kou Xi's voice fell, the proprietress changed her face.
What used to be a wild kitten has now become a leopard that wants to eat people.
"What's wrong? Is the price bad, or what's wrong? How beautiful your sister is dressed, why don't you let people buy it. I look the best, you don't know how to be aesthetic!"
