Chapter 660 - 643 Gift
On the second day of the engagement banquet, Lu Jiaxin took Sister-in-law Lu and the two Lu Ping brothers shopping, while Lu Shan stayed at the hospital with Lu Hongjun.
The items in Seaport City and Central were only for looking at and not for buying according to Sister-in-law Lu, regardless of whether Lu Jiaxin wanted to buy them for her. She was earnest in saying, "Jiaxin, it’s too expensive. Using such pricey things would be a waste for us. There are plenty of envious people, and our family is already doing quite well. It’s better to keep a low profile."
At Sister-in-law Lu’s request, Lu Jiaxin ended up buying just two suits for the two brothers, to wear on important occasions. As for Sister-in-law Lu, she received a gold necklace.
Although they didn’t buy much, the mother and her two sons certainly broadened their horizons in just one day. Those branded clothes easily cost several thousand to ten thousand a piece, watches were in the hundreds of thousands, and jewelry and bags were outrageously expensive. Although the Forty-nine City now had more items than before, prices weren’t as outrageous as those.
On the way back, Sister-in-law Lu asked, "Jiaxin, I want to go to that wholesale market Shanzi mentioned tomorrow. I heard the stuff there is quite good."
The items from Seaport City and Central were certainly of good quality, but normal people couldn’t afford the spending there. Instead, the wholesale market offered good value for less money.
Lu Jiaxin laughed and said, "Tomorrow Lu Ping will accompany my dad, so let Shanzi take you to the wholesale market."
Lu Ping was eager for it, as shopping was exhausting; he preferred staying at the hospital. While Great Uncle was doing rehabilitation training, he could sit next to him and rest or read. Unlike shopping, which meant walking and walking, it was both boring and tiring.
The next morning, Lu Jiaxin handed three thousand Hong Kong Dollars to Sister-in-law Lu. After being declined, she laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, just take the money first. If you don’t spend it while shopping, you can return it to me."
Lu Shan, who was by the side, said, "Big Aunt, just take it for now!"
