Su Zhiyuan patted his sister's head lovingly, "From now on, if you go to play with your mother on the first floor, if you want to catch butterflies or dig earthworms, or if you want to run around and play with other children, you will need to wear shoes."
"Yes, Sixth Sister, you can't just walk around the house all the time."
After the second child finished speaking, the third and fourth children also wanted to persuade Jinbao. Their mother suddenly said: "Let's think of something else to do with Jinbao's shoes."
Jinbao is not in a hurry to walk now, but Zhiyuan needs a new pair of shoes more.
"Mom, what can you do?" Su Zhiyuan asked her mother.
Su Jianmin also asked: "My wife, you don't know how to make tiger-head shoes. Even if you can, we don't have the materials for the soles. Jinbao can't go barefoot all the time, so we have to buy her shoes!"
Bai Lu knew what her husband was thinking. A son had to be raised rough, and it didn't matter if he had to endure wearing shabby shoes. A daughter had to be raised rich, so she must be well-dressed and not be wronged.
In contrast, although she loved Jinbao very much, she also loved her other sons and did not want them to be wronged.
"We made new clothes for Jinbao in the New Year, but Zhiyuan and the others wore old clothes that were fully patched. Now their shoes are also worn out. They were patched again and again. Now they are too worn out to wear. I think these new shoes should
Bought for Zhiyuan."
Little Jinbao nodded his head vigorously, "Dui Dui..."
Mom said everything she wanted to say!
I thought that after hearing this, my father and brothers would continue to choose new sneakers as planned. Unexpectedly, her eldest brother said excitedly: "I told you that I can still wear these shoes. Why don't you believe me, Mom?"
He jumped in the air a few times and said, "Look, these shoes are strong and the glue has not been opened, so why are they so worn that they can't be worn? Even if I wear these old shoes, I will still come first in the competition tomorrow."
"I believe in brother, he can run first even with bare feet!"
Su Xiaosi echoed his second brother's words, "The eldest brother is the fastest runner. He has super rocket legs. He is the same with or without shoes."
Bai Lu was helpless and could only ask her third son: "Wen Nian, what do you think? Do you also think we should change to Jin Bao's shoes?"
"Well, these shoes are very suitable for the sixth sister. She will look very cute wearing them."
"Of course... I know Jin Bao will be very cute wearing these little red leather shoes, but your eldest brother also needs new shoes. Besides, the sneakers can be given to you in turn, so it's not a waste."
"Big brother is willing to give the best to Jinbao, and so am I. Mom, let's just wear old shoes and buy new ones for Jinbao."
Su Wennian looked at his sister with eyes full of love, and his expression seemed to say: It is the right thing to pick the stars from the sky for Jin Bao.
Jinbao deserves to have the best things among the brothers and sisters, whether it is new clothes for the New Year or these red leather shoes with bows.
"Mom, change Jinbao's shoes quickly," Su Xiaosi pulled her mother's sleeve, "I want to see Jinbao wear new shoes."
"I also want to see if the shoes are too big, you can wear a few more pairs of small socks. Mom, can you buy some more pairs of cotton socks for the sixth sister?"
Xiao Jinbao puffed up her little mouth and said "no" for a long time, but no one listened to her at all.
Today I am here to buy shoes for my eldest brother, have you forgotten?
Although Su Jianmin prefers daughters, he was very moved when he saw his sons being so sensible and thinking about their sister. He also saw that Zhiyuan's shoes were indeed too worn out, so he lowered his head and thought hard about a compromise.
"Um," after a while, he raised his head and asked the salesperson, "Hello, can I exchange this exchange coupon for a pair of red leather shoes and a pair of Jiefang shoes? I just calculated it, and the prices seem to be about the same."
After he finished speaking, the whole family's eyes focused on the salesperson.
The saleswoman looked a little embarrassed, "This...even though the newspaper paid the money in advance, we originally agreed to exchange for a pair of sneakers, but now you have to exchange for two pairs of other shoes. I'm not very good at keeping accounts."
.”
"How can it be difficult to keep accounts? Just do the math. Girls' shoes are 18 yuan, Jiefang shoes are 7.8 yuan, a total of 25.8 yuan, and a pair of sports shoes is 26 yuan. If you calculate it like this, I will exchange it for 2 yuan.
You still lost two cents on a pair of shoes, right? You didn’t lose either."
After hearing what her husband said, Bai Lu thought it was a good idea and said quickly: "Yes, comrade salesperson, please help me. Both my children need shoes. If I just change one pair, the other child will have no shoes to wear."
Su Xiaosi put his hands on the high counter and blinked his innocent and pitiful eyes, "Beautiful sister, please, please let my eldest brother and sixth sister wear shoes, okay?"
The first time someone called her a beauty, the salesperson's face suddenly turned red.
"Okay, okay," she coughed slightly, "you can pick two pairs."
"Wow, wow, that's great! Beautiful sister, you are the best, beautiful, kind and generous. There must be many people chasing you..."
Su Xiaosi wanted to continue talking, but his father hurriedly covered his mouth and could only make a sound of "Uh-huh".
Su Jianmin said to the blushing salesperson in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, my son is not well educated and loves to talk nonsense. I'm really sorry."
While the family was noisy, they bought two pairs of shoes.
"These Jiefang shoes are strong and soft, no worse than sports shoes!"
"No, those sneakers just look good. When it comes to being strong, our Jiefang shoes are the strongest!"
Su Zhiyuan put on suitable shoes and ran and jumped along the way. He was able to take pictures of the branches of the big tree with just one jump.
After returning home, with the whole family watching, Xiao Jinbao put on the first pair of shoes in her life.
Although the shoes are a bit too big, the soles are soft and comfortable to wear...
"My sister is so cute!" Jinbao's brothers' eyes were shining.
"Jinbao, come here, come to daddy." Su Jianmin clapped his hands.
Just as Jinbao was about to walk in the direction of her father, her elder brother immediately clapped his hands and said, "Come here, brother."
The little one looked left and right, not knowing who to choose, and finally ran to her mother and hugged her mother's legs.
"My little baby!" Bai Lu bent down and picked up her daughter, jokingly saying, "Your father and brothers are childish, let's ignore them."
"Mom... play..."
"Okay," Bai Lu said happily, "Mom, let's play with Jin Bao."
Her husband and four sons instantly showed resentment in their eyes, "I also want to play with Jinbao."
"Papa, pigeon... Mom..." Xiao Jinbao opened his small mouth and said three words with difficulty, "Let's play..."
Lao Su and his family were stunned for a moment. When they came to their senses, they said excitedly: "Did you hear that? Just now Jinbao said 'let's play together'. It was three different words, not repeated words. He spoke so fluently."
"Wow wow wow! My sister is so smart! She is the smartest girl in the world!" Xiaosi said happily.
At the sports meeting the next day, Su Zhiyuan won the first place in the competition without any suspense in several events such as long-distance running and long jump.
Jinbao's first birthday is coming soon, and Bai Lu plans to treat Yulan's family, Huahua's family, Director Zhang's family, and Jinbao's godmother Zhang Hongmei's family to dinner.
"We can't buy meat, so we can only cook vegetarian dishes. Yulan, what do you think is good?"
"Fried eggplant with chili pepper, fried shredded carrots, pumpkin cake..."
Bai Lu and Lin Yulan walked to the vegetables, preparing to pick some vegetables to take home.
The two were chatting when Lin Yulan frowned and said hurriedly: "Lulu, look! What is that white fluffy thing in your vegetable field? It seems to be eating the carrots in your field?"
