Chapter 629: Chapter 625 Hey, Rich and Capricious 03【Seeking Subscriptions+】

-------------

Because tomorrow is New Year’s Day, Stone Street is really crowded with pedestrians. Upon seeing the bustling scene, Xie Jingchen would place the items he purchased into the cart, then continue leisurely strolling while embracing his little wife and protecting her.

Suddenly her gaze fixed on a spot. In the blink of an eye, Yan Jinsu actually saw several peddlers in the corner selling sugar paintings and gourd sweets—snacks for the little ones.

Surrounding them were children, with their parents waiting by, showing helpless but willing smiles on their faces. Although reluctant to part with their small change, they were still willing to make a purchase.

Upon seeing this, Yan Jinsu noticed that the treats could be packaged. Each stall had prepared kraft paper, and as the temperature was only a few degrees, these sweets wouldn’t melt away in an instant!

Delighted.

Yan Jinsu finally found them, items that would bring joy to the children! She immediately approached and ordered fifteen portions from several stalls. There was no helping it; with so many children at home, if the kids didn’t eat them, the adults could also give them a try.

As she walked along, Yan Jinsu also saw many handcrafted items, such as small abacuses that were clearly for children’s use, and she appreciated the craftsmanship of the shop owners, which was indeed meticulous.

However, Yan Jinsu was a bit frustrated because she didn’t know how to use an abacus. But thinking of the several nephews at home, she waved her hand and ordered ten abacuses, big and small.

The large ones for learning, and the small ones for playing!

Yan Jinsu really couldn’t find any toys for the children; the wooden items available in the market, her Grandpa at home could make, and the kids had grown tired of them.

Fortunately, it seemed as if Xie Jingchen knew, because after Yan Jinsu had bought almost everything, he led her to another street and that’s when she discovered that the children’s toys were in another secluded corner!

There was no shortage of items, such as whistles, slingshots, marbles, comic books, and paper cut-outs, and even hair clips and hair bands for girls!

Yan Jinsu’s eyes lit up when she saw the comic books—what a great find!

She had never read comic books before, so she signaled her husband to come over and choose with her, letting him pick out what was more suitable for the older children to read.

Seeing this, Xie Jingchen didn’t hesitate, his little wife really didn’t have the same understanding as he did.

Yan Jinsu stood by her husband’s side, supported by his arm, as her big eyes wandered around, and she spotted stickers of Sun Wukong, the Chinese zodiac, and bright red papercuts, which she found very attractive.

After mentioning this to her husband, she approached and picked out a lot, not only choosing for her own household, but also for the lower courtyard and the east wing.

She was completely unaware of the meanings behind these, but the shop owner was a talkative woman, who would from time to time explain them, and Yan Jinsu paid serious attention to her explanations.

Needless to say, she was a bit of a dunce when it came to this and couldn’t understand.

Of course, this didn’t deter her enthusiasm for making purchases.

To her surprise, she finally found ’trendy’ toys, although crudely made, these were the toy guns that the village children all ’envied’!

Oh, she also spotted little swords. Upon seeing these, Yan Jinsu had only one thought: Buy, buy, buy!

The consequence of having the money to indulge is, of course, that the rear seats and trunk of Xie Jingchen’s car were stuffed full of items, including everything.

The snacks that Yan Jinsu bought, Xie Jingchen feared they would melt, so he promptly put them in the car and then transferred them into the Space Button.

Feeling that she had bought enough, Yan Jinsu was finally satisfied.

The Xie Family didn’t lack meat. With Xie Jingchen around, Daqing Mountain was his private game preserve, but they lacked snacks.

After the couple finished shopping, Xie Jingchen then went to a private distillery and bought several dozen small wine jugs, both one-pound and three-pound sizes.

The car has limited capacity. It can’t fit too much.

At three in the afternoon, the couple returned to the Xie Family Courtyard. As soon as the car stopped, Zhou Xiuhua and her daughters heard it and came over.

"Mom, Second Sister, we’re back," Yan Jinsu greeted her mother-in-law and cousins with a smile, poking her head out of the window.

She thought to herself, thankfully, they had already moved the items that were temporarily stored in the space out.

"Are you back? Are you cold?" Zhou Xiuhua wanted to come closer but was held back by Xie Jinghong, who called out to the inside. Shortly after, Xiao Yi and the other older kids responded from behind.

It turned out that Xie Jinghong had already seen that the car was packed full of stuff. After calling out, she let go of her mother and went to close the gate of the large courtyard.

You can’t show off your wealth.

This was something the Xie Family understood from a young age and everyone in the family kept it in mind.

Xie Jingchen drove straight into the courtyard, and after parking the car, he went over to the front passenger side to help his little wife out.

Yan Jinmei was about to reach back into the passenger seat to grab some snacks, but Xie Jingchen’s big hand was already supporting her waist, and he said softly, "Wife, no need, I’ll get it."

Then he turned to his mother, who was approaching, and instructed, "Mom, you help little Ni into the main room, it’s too cold out here."

"Mm, little Ni, you don’t have to handle these things," Zhou Xiuhua took Third Son’s Wife by the elbow, leading her while continuing to ramble:

"After you and San’er left, Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi played with Xiao Si for half an hour before Xiao Shi remembered to look for you. Then she heard your dad went out shopping, she was so pouty, and even now is still in a bad mood. You should quickly go and coax your little treasure..."

"Heh, Mom, are Xiao Wu and Xiaoqi practicing their calligraphy again?" Little Shi always looks for her ’to complain’ the moment she sees that Xiao Wu and Xiaoqi aren’t playing with her.

"Yes, Xiao Wu and Xiaoqi saw your dad teaching Xiao Yi to write big characters, and the two little girls were rooted to the spot."

Xie Tiesheng may not be very cultured, but his brush pen handwriting is decent enough to show to others, and he has personally written the New Year’s couplets and Door Gods for the house in past years.

This year is no exception, but the old man has already started training Xiao Yi to take over.

Xiao’er was watching from the side. Xiao San was playing hide-and-seek with a few of the little ones in the backyard, and their voices were so loud they could be heard all the way to the front yard.

Little Shi was angry at Grandpa because her sisters Xiao Wu and Xiaoqi wouldn’t play with her, and she was pulling on Grandpa’s dark face with her little hands.

Xie Tiesheng didn’t mind Little Shi’s naughtiness and was carefully discussing the big characters Xiao Yi had written with him.

The New Year’s couplets were ready, and as soon as Xie Jingwei and families from the other households cleaned up the door lintels, everyone could take their couplets to put up.

Xie Jingchen had just returned at the right time, and it was Xiao Yi who responded when Xie Jinghong called.

Upon seeing Yan Jinsu and Zhou Xiuhua coming face to face, he quickly delegated tasks and then rushed into the large courtyard.

Xie Jingchen had already taken things out of the car and sorted them one by one.

As soon as Xiao Yi and Xiao’er arrived, he directed the two brothers to take the items to the guest hall.

Even Xie Tiesheng handed over the kids to his wife and soon stepped out of the main room.

"Mummy~" Shiyi saw Yan Jinsu return and wanted to plunge into her arms but was pulled back by Zhou Xiuhua.

Xie Jingchen just stepped over the threshold and caught sight of Little Shi’s small movement, and with a deep and tender voice called out: "Little Shier, be good——"
