Li Manjun pretended not to know and asked her daughter, "What delicious food can I treat my mother to for a hundred dollars?"
Nian Nian thought about it, and his father said that with one hundred yuan, he could buy whatever Nian Nian wanted, so he replied: "A lot is much better."
"Okay, then you can treat mom to a cake." Li Manjun started the car with a smile and walked towards the nearby cake shop.
Every year, when I see that my goal is achieved, I don’t have to go home so soon. I can play with my mother. I happily hold a hundred yuan and count on my little fingers what I will buy in a while.
Cup cakes with small umbrellas, sesame balls, chicken cake pieces, and more, I can’t think of anything else, so that’s all for now.
Li Manjun parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car with her daughter in her arms, and wanted to carry her away, but the little girl refused.
"Niannian is a big kid, let's go on your own." Niannian twisted out of his mother's arms, stretched out his little hand, and asked her mother to hold her hand.
Li Manjun nodded funny, took her daughter's little hand, and took her to the cake shop.
She deliberately did not give any warning to see how her daughter would react and whether she would be timid as soon as she entered the store.
Niannian tried her best to walk her calves and arrived in front of the cake shop. From her sight, she could just see rows of cup cakes with small paper umbrellas in the glass display window, and her eyes immediately widened.
"This, this." She pushed open the heavy glass door and rushed into the store with a hundred dollar bill.
The door was very heavy, so Li Manjun helped push it, allowing her daughter to enter smoothly.
The counter is very high, and everything in the adult world is too big for a little three-year-old baby. She has to stand on tiptoes very hard and stretch her neck to see the things on the first floor of the shelf.
So, every year, I only choose what I can come across.
She first asked for a paper umbrella cup cake, and then took a box of biscuit bars, but there were only two of them, and her little hands could no longer hold them.
"Mom" looked at her pitifully every year, her long eyelashes flickering, begging her for help.
Li Manjun pointed to the young female boss at the counter, "You can ask the boss aunt for help."
Nian Nian glanced at the smiling boss at the counter and then at his mother, feeling a little hesitant.
However, with the encouragement of my mother, I decided to take the first step and boldly seek help from my aunt.
Nian Nian was a little embarrassed. She asked very quietly for the first time. The boss didn't hear her clearly and asked her what she wanted instead. Then she asked in a normal voice: "Auntie, can you get it for Nian Nian?"
"Okay, kid, what do you want to get?"
Nian Nian smiled happily and wanted to reach out to point to what she wanted, but both hands were full. The boss helped her get what she wanted to the counter first. The smile on Nian Nian's face became brighter and she pulled the boss's hand.
She held her hand and asked someone to bring her the sesame balls on the high cabinet.
Li Manjun watched quietly until her daughter was about to hand the money to the boss to settle the bill, and then suddenly asked:
"We agreed to treat mom to some delicious food? Every year, where's mom's treat?"
When I heard my mother's words every year, I screamed, but she forgot.
But I quickly came to my senses and let my mother make her own choice.
Li Manjun shook his head helplessly, what a leaky little cotton-padded jacket.
The pastries in the cake shop are relatively ordinary and not as exquisite as those in the dessert shop. Li Manjun went around and asked the boss to pack two kilograms of tiger skin cake for him. Zhao Yong seemed to like eating it, so he happened to take him to the hospital to take him home in the afternoon.
When the boss is settling the accounts, he stands in front of the tall cashier counter every year, puts his feet up and asks the boss, "Is the money enough?"
"That's enough." The boss smiled at her, she was such a cute little girl.
When I hear my boss say this every year, I immediately turn around and tell my mother: "That's enough. One hundred yuan can buy a lot."
Li Manjun nodded, feeling pretty good and asking if the money was enough.
The boss found a handful of change and looked at it in surprise, "That's a lot."
So many pictures, more than a hundred yuan.
When Li Manjun saw her daughter's surprised expression, she knew that no matter how young she looked, she was still a child who hadn't even gone to kindergarten.
"Can mom teach you how to recognize money when you get home?" Li Manjun held the cake in one hand and held the paper umbrella cup cake for her daughter in the other hand, lowering it lower so that she could scoop it with a fork.
The wind was cold, and Nian Nian's little hands were red and cold to the touch. Li Manjun hurriedly asked her daughter to put her left hand in her pocket and expose one hand to hold a fork.
She wanted to ask her daughter to eat it in the car, but the child couldn't bear it after seeing the cake. Just before the money was paid, she couldn't help but secretly stuck out her tongue and licked a mouthful of cream, which made people laugh and cry.
Those who don’t know better think that she doesn’t usually give her cake.
Nian Niang couldn't bear to destroy the flowers on the cake, so he forked the cake around the flowers and ate the white cream part first. A circle of white cream filled his mouth, and he responded with a smile: "Okay."
From the cake shop to the car, it was a short 50-meter journey. In order to eat cup cakes, the mother and daughter walked for five minutes.
After her daughter finished the cake and smiled with satisfaction, Li Manjun asked: "Can I go home now?"
Nian Nian shakes his head and doesn’t want to go home, he wants to be with his mother!
"I'm so happy with my mother." The little guy was so soft that he just nestled into his mother's arms and acted like a baby. "Mom, you don't have to go to work today, just play with Nian Nian."
Li Manjun sighed softly. He was really busy during this period. He came home very late at night, washed up and went to bed. He didn't spend much time with his daughter. He even missed reading a bedtime story for a month.
"Then how about you accompany your mother and go to work with her today?" Li Manjun rubbed her daughter's cold little hands to warm them up.
If I had known it would be so cold, I would have just worn gloves when I went out in the morning.
Nian Nian nodded happily, "Okay!"
As long as I am with my mother, I am happy!
Li Manjun kissed her daughter's rosy little face, warmed her hands, put them in her pockets, fastened the hood of her down jacket, buckled her seat belt, told her to sit still and not move around, turned to the cab, and drove her daughter away.
factory.
Li Manjun occasionally brings his children to the factory, and the workers are not surprised.
But every time I go to my mother's office, I am always very excited, like a curious baby, looking around here and there. If there is anything new in the office, she will always find it immediately, and then squat in front of the new object.
, I studied it by myself for half a day.
Li Manjun took out her daughter's magnetic drawing board from the drawer for her to play with, and told her not to run around within her sight and to open her laptop to process documents.
Some employees came in during the process to deliver documents or discuss matters, and they were all obediently playing with their drawing boards.
When I got tired of playing with the drawing board, I pulled out the empty mineral water bottle in a waste paper shell that Li Manjun put behind the door, found a roll of tape, took two pens, and matched it myself, and had a great time.
The newly bought down jacket got dirty very quickly, but Nian Nian was not afraid at all, because her mother said that if the clothes get dirty, they can be washed, and Nian Nian would be fine as long as it was safe and not hurt.
