Chapter 664 I Didn\'t Spend Extra
In his enthusiasm, Su Li failed to notice that while he complimented his mother, he inadvertently insulted his father\'s taste. However, he shrugged it off, relieved that his father\'s attention was solely on his mother and had likely missed his comment.
Su Le, too, was excited by the sight of her beautiful mother. She slid off the sofa and bounded towards Gu Zi.
Su Bing, fearing that the floor might be too slippery and that Su Le might fall, followed closely behind. His usually cool and composed demeanor was tinged with anxiety. Just as Su Le\'s chubby little hand was about to reach for her mother\'s new dress, Su Bing swiftly scooped her up, saving the dress from potential disaster. Su Bing\'s brow relaxed, pleased that he had saved his mother\'s new dress.
Seeing that her daughter was well taken care of by her brother, Gu Zi didn\'t rush to hold her. Instead, she turned her attention to Su Shen, "I\'ve tried on the clothes and I like them. But weren\'t you supposed to buy clothes for yourself? Why did you only buy for me?"
She had been busy in the kitchen and hadn\'t seen clearly. After dinner, she had planned to have Su Shen model his new clothes for her. That way, she could take note of his style preferences for future reference. But to her surprise, all the new clothes Su Shen had brought home were women\'s clothing. Gu Zi was taken aback and immediately dismissed the idea of giving Jin Long an extra chicken leg. She blinked in confusion, wondering if her instructions had been misunderstood.
Su Shen reached out to stop Gu Zi as she approached him. His gaze never left her. After pouring her a glass of water, he responded in a deep voice, "I have enough clothes. I saw many new women\'s styles in the store and wasn\'t sure which you\'d like, so I bought a few. It came to exactly three hundred, I didn\'t spend extra."
His deep, dark eyes held Gu Zi\'s gaze, filled with a soft affection that drew her in. Was he waiting for her to praise him?
Gu Zi\'s heart skipped a beat before returning to its normal rhythm. She rubbed her temples in exasperation.
She said to Su Shen, "I know you didn\'t spend extra. When I asked Jin Long to go with you today, I actually... never mind, it\'s not a big deal. When I see something suitable, I\'ll buy it for you. Even if you\'re busy at work and tend to get your clothes dirty, you shouldn\'t always wear the same one or two outfits. It\'s better to have a few more for daily wear. But it\'s okay, we can go shopping again later.
"I\'ll go change now. Oh, didn\'t you buy some goldfish? Let\'s clean the front yard pond this afternoon and fill it with water. We can put the goldfish in there."
Su Shen nodded. After Gu Zi left, he took out the necessary tools and began cleaning the unused pond in the yard.
He knew that there was a lot of work to be done since they had just moved in. So, he planned to stay home and help out more, spending more time with Gu Zi. After buying the clothes in the morning, he had sent Jin Long back to work...
As evening fell, the sun set behind the hills of Little Lin Village, painting the sky with hues of red. The villagers, done with their day\'s work, picked up their hoes and headed home.
Aunt Zhou from the town arrived at Little Lin Village, joining the stream of people. After asking for directions, she found her way to the Lin family\'s red brick house.
Looking at the well-structured house, Aunt Zhou couldn\'t help but feel envious. They had a shop and rented a house in town, but they also had such a nice place to stay in the village. She slapped herself on the cheek, muttering, "What a fool I\'ve been. How could I offend such a family?"
