Chapter 117 - 106: Can’t Save Money
Little Girl went out and actually brought their young ladies out with her, not just one young lady, both sisters from the Fu Family came over.
Second Miss Fu glanced at Datou and others following beside Manbao, her eyes fell on Bai Shanbao, but she didn’t linger, as she was older than all of them.
"Manbao, what have you all been busy with at home?" Second Miss Fu found Manbao very clever. Despite her young age, she really enjoyed talking to her.
She didn’t go out, just stood at the doorway and talked with Manbao outside.
Manbao counted on her fingers to tell her how busy she had been recently.
First Miss Fu, hearing that Manbao had been reading, also looked at her seriously.
"Will you come again before New Year’s?" Second Miss Fu said, "We’re going to have a lot of guests at our house for the New Year, and many of my friends will come. I was just thinking of buying some sweets before the holiday."
"We will come, to buy New Year’s goods," Manbao said. "Won’t you eat before New Year’s then?"
"Of course we’ll eat. So reserve ten packs for us," she said. "My grandmother and the others have all gone back to our hometown, and my cousins have all left, so we won’t eat that much."
Manbao agreed, but that still wasn’t a small amount, four hundred fifty wen indeed.
Little Girl glanced at Manbao, counted out four and a half strings of coins for her, Manbao grabbed a handful of candy to give her, and continued chatting with Second Miss Fu, "How does your family usually celebrate the New Year?"
