Lin Sanshui suddenly had a premonition that perhaps the most correct decision he made in his life was adopting this child!
"Good, good..." As soon as Dahu saw Lin Sanshui’s action, he knew the silver was real. Instantly, he was so excited that he was speechless, and his hands and feet were restless.
"What’s good about it? Hurry up and carry your little sister, I’ll pack things up." Seeing his useless appearance, Lin Sanshui laughed and scolded.
"I’m on it." Dahu happily ran to the back of the stall, picked up Gu Nian, and excitedly kissed her on the forehead, "Little sister, Dad was right, you’re our family’s lucky star!"
Gu Nian, feeling disgusted, wiped her forehead, "Big brother, your saliva is all over my forehead."
"Hehe!" Dahu chuckled sheepishly.
Lin Sanshui watched this scene and gave Dahu a slap on the back, "Naughty boy, don’t bully your sister."
Dahu immediately begged for mercy, "How could I dare, I’m obviously cherishing my sister!"
Thinking about it, Dahu couldn’t help but feel envious of Erhu.
That kid can stay at home and be with his sister every day, poor him, he can only go home for two days each month.
Moreover, Qinglin Restaurant is very busy, usually, when Dad comes over, he can only see him for a moment, he hardly has any time to go out.
Both times selling goods, he even gave away the buckets, and there’s no water bucket left at home.
Passing by the general store, Lin Sanshui bought two wooden buckets and ten pounds of peas, then went to the fabric shop.
Upon entering the fabric shop, Lin Sanshui appeared quite affluent and immediately took a liking to the ready-made clothes hanging above.
"Hey, how much is this dress?" Nice and pink, girls should wear such colors to look cute.
Seeing a business opportunity, the shop assistant came over and said, "This dress is made of pure cotton fabric, only six hundred coins. Are you interested in the ready-to-wear or just the fabric? If it’s just the fabric, making an outfit this size only costs three hundred coins."
Lin Sanshui’s smile instantly froze, smacking his lips, "This... so expensive!"
The clothes he wore, made by his wife, weren’t even one hundred coins.
However, sackcloth indeed couldn’t compare to fine cotton.
Lin Sanshui licked his lips and hesitated a little.
He wasn’t reluctant to buy quality for Gu Nian, purely a creature of habit, spending hundreds of coins on children’s clothes felt quite costly. The source of thɪs content is ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt
Plus, Gu Nian didn’t like pink either, she’s not really a six-year-old girl!
She hurriedly pulled Lin Sanshui and pointed to another set in linen color, "Dad, buy this one, it’s stain-resistant, that pink one wouldn’t stay clean."
Lin Sanshui looked over and immediately turned away disdainfully.
Dahu also chimed in, looking at Lin Sanshui, "Dad, it’s just six hundred coins, you could buy two sets for little sister with just over an ounce of silver, and little sister’s fair skin looks prettier in pink anyway, besides, linen is rough, little sister looks so good, wearing linen does her injustice!"
Because the linen-colored dress Gu Nian pointed at was actually a sackcloth dress.
What Lin Sanshui’s family wore was all this type, and Gu Nian was wearing it too, cheap but rough.
Lin Sanshui kept vacillating between the two outfits, finally gritted his teeth and stamped his foot, "Assistant, give me both sets, and also that dark blue fabric, cut it for me..."
In the end, besides the two outfits for Gu Nian, Lin Sanshui bought many fabrics, ensuring everyone in the family could have a new set of clothes made.
Of course, only Gu Nian would have a dress made of fine cotton, everyone else’s would be sackcloth.
