In the end, the jade was not purchased.
Wu's father and mother were not afraid of their son spending money. John Woo was rich. Even though they didn't ask much, they could guess it from the things he bought for the family and the car he drove.
But are they lavish just because they have money? Neither of them is that type of person.
In addition, Wu Ma did not have the habit of wearing jade, so she finally went to the watch counter and bought a pair of couple watches.
It’s not expensive, the total price is less than 10,000.
John Woo wanted them to choose something more expensive, but they both refused.
No matter how much money they have, it is their children's hard-earned money. A diamond-studded watch can only tell time; they have no habit of showing off.
"Thank you, Xiaoguai. Whenever grandpa and grandma see this watch in the future, they will remember that it was a gift from me, Xiaoguai." Aunt Wu put the watch on her wrist and thanked Lin Fan with a smile.
"Well, the watch is practical. Your grandma Wu and I will definitely wear it often in the future. Thank you, Xiaoguai." Dad Wu also smiled.
At their age, they are still not used to checking the time on their mobile phones, so it is much more convenient to have a watch on their wrist.
John Woo was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he saw that he didn't even get a thank you for paying the money.
Although Lin Fan would definitely reimburse him later, his parents didn't know...
"You're welcome." Lin Fan responded with a smile.
She wanted to buy a more expensive style, after all, she had plenty of money.
During these two days at the Wu family, she experienced a warm and loving time she had never experienced before. Both Mr. and Mrs. Wu were very kind to her.
Lin Fan really wanted to repay them, but she had nothing to express her gratitude except money, so she thought of buying them gifts.
But after calming down, I realized that Dad and Mom wouldn't easily accept an overly expensive gift from a stranger, even if it was a younger relative they liked, whom they had only just met yesterday...
What's more, I'm only this small...
So, it’s good enough to be able to give away these two watches now.
She wanted to give gifts to make the two elders happy, not to add to their psychological burden or make them feel uncomfortable.
Wu's parents were even happier after receiving the gifts and took Lin Fan out to play.
At the age of 37, Lin Fan experienced a number of popular children's games, including painting plaster dolls, riding a carousel, and catching goldfish.
You know what, regardless of her age, she is quite happy.
After entering the supermarket, Mother Wu could no longer control her desire to buy.
This one should be something my little darling will love, take it. That one looks like the kind of children's food you often see in advertisements, take it...
One shopping cart quickly filled up, and Wu Yusen pushed another one over. He saw Lin Fan looking at the cart with a hint of confusion and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I want to sit in..." Lin Fan said a little embarrassedly.
When she was little, there were no supermarkets. When she learned that children could sit in shopping carts, she was very envious and wanted to try it, but she was already too old by then.
Adults sitting in shopping carts are common on TV, but she certainly wouldn't dare try it in real life. After all, she has to consider the opinions of those around her.
It’s a rare opportunity now, it would be a pity not to experience it.
John Woo was caught off guard and was stunned by this little wish, but then he started laughing.
He took out a disinfectant wipe from his pocket, wiped the child seat clean, and then carried Lin Fan up.
"Oh, Xiaoguai wants to ride in a car. There are those toy car strollers. Go and get one." Mother Wu turned around and guessed that the child might be tired.
"No, she just wants to sit like this, right?" John Woo replied.
In fact, John Woo had similar thoughts. Who doesn't have a child at heart? It's just that unlike Lin Fan, he didn't have the opportunity to realize it.
"Yes." Lin Fan's long-cherished wish finally came true today, and he smiled so hard that his teeth were visible. "I just want to sit here."
"Okay, then you have to keep a close eye on Xiaoguai and don't let him fall." Seeing that she was happy, Aunt Wu did not interfere too much and continued to go shopping.
Soon, John Woo's car was half loaded.
"That's enough, Mom. Don't buy so much. She'll be gone in a few days, and she won't be able to finish it when she comes back."
"If you can't finish it, just take it away. You have a car anyway. If you are not allowed to buy clothes, can't you take food with you?" Although Aunt Wu said this, she stopped shopping.
A basket and a half of various snacks is indeed not a small amount.
"It's all because of my little darling. You're so adorable. Grandma didn't notice and these happened." Auntie Wu rubbed Lin Fan's pink and chewy little face.
Lin Fan's distorted face forced a smile.
She already felt uncomfortable sitting in the shopping cart.
It was quite fresh when I first got on, but the seat was facing the person pushing the cart.
She stared at the buttons on John Woo's chest for a long time, and could even see clearly how many stitches there were on it.
If you want to look in other directions, you can only turn left and right, which will inevitably make you tired after a long time. It is even more impossible to look forward.
After satisfying her desire, she called John Woo to get it off for her.
Sure enough, many things, after experiencing them, are completely different from what we imagined.
After Wu Ma regained her composure, she went to the fresh produce section to stock up on some fruits and vegetables.
After shopping and buying everything, the group headed to the car, their bags slung over their shoulders. Only Lin Fan was empty-handed, free of charge.
Well... being a kid isn't entirely without its benefits.
When we came out of the mall, it was already 7 o'clock and it was completely dark.
Fortunately, they ate as they went shopping in the mall, so they were not hungry.
After returning home, the two parents quickly heated up the lunch. After eating a little, they sat on the sofa to watch TV.
Lin Fan couldn't remember the last time he sat down with his elders to watch TV.
It seems that after the advent of smartphones, even the elderly like to sit alone and watch short videos, and no longer sit together to watch TV and chat.
Actually, this is also due to the TV. Because of its complicated operation and the lack of good programs, it has gradually disappeared from people's lives.
It seems that it is really rare to find parents like Wu's parents who sit together and watch TV after dinner.
Lin Fan was placed between the two elders, firmly occupying the center position, and Wu Yusen could only sit on the chaise longue next to him. He sat up and felt quite comfortable.
The food they bought that afternoon was piled on the coffee table. Wu Ma didn't forget to feed Lin Fan while watching TV, and occasionally started a discussion with Wu Ba about the plot of the TV show.
Lin Fan thought this life love movie was melodramatic. Under normal circumstances, she would have watched it once and turned it off.
But in this warm atmosphere, she was unconsciously infected. When Wu Ma laughed, she laughed too, and when Wu Ba scolded, she got angry too.
When it came to the kissing scene, both elders covered her eyes.
Lin Fan saw Wu Yusen's gloating smile through the gap between his hands and was speechless.
What's so funny? It's like you weren't covered in it as a child.
But what kind of a scene is this? Why is there a kiss here and there?
The episode, minus the beginning and end and the commercials, was only a little over 20 minutes long, and she had to cover her eyes three times...
Happy times always pass quickly. In the following days, our family of five... oh no, a group of four, went to several famous scenic spots and had a lot of fun.
But the time to say goodbye has finally come.
I want to ride that stroller, but it's probably going to be hard to get in. Even if I do get in, I might get stuck and have a hard time getting out. Facepalm.
(Continued from yesterday)
Going home with John Woo was, on the one hand, a way to quickly strengthen their relationship. I know everyone loves John Woo, but if you count, they've only seen each other for less than a month in the past year and a half. This was an opportunity to quickly strengthen their relationship, and also give Lin Fan a chance to heal from her childhood and become more mentally strong.
I know that in many novels, once the protagonist has a cheat code, he immediately becomes cool and domineering, but I want something more realistic, even though the idea of a person turning into a mecha is pretty ridiculous in the first place...
The storyline about the aunt and the naughty child wasn't originally part of this storyline. It was a last-minute change on the day she visited the Wu family. Partly to avoid being too vulgar, and partly to reduce the amount of irrelevant descriptions. If I hadn't already posted about them, I would have deleted both of them.
I've actually been aware of cutting out unnecessary plot points, but as you all know, this is my first time writing, so I was completely clueless and went with my gut feeling. I wanted to make things clear, but ended up not being able to grasp the right balance.
It's not that I didn't notice it. I noticed it the first time my aunt showed up at the mall. But if I don't write about it, what should I do next? I haven't finished what I want to say yet...
Alas, it is true that I am not strong enough, please forgive me. I bow.
This kind of daily routine won't happen again in the near future. My work will be all about the Special Affairs Office, so I'll try to focus on Lin Fan. But I can't be in mecha mode all the time. (To be continued)
