Rebirth in the 90s: Pack up and prepare for demolition

A group of people drove their new car to a random restaurant nearby to have lunch. After lunch, my uncle and I took them to the mall, and they followed the people from the car dealership to go through the registration procedures.

As soon as Ye Ke entered the women's clothing store, he was so tired that he sat on the sofa and didn't want to move.

Ye Wenhui glanced at her with disdain, "I've never seen anyone who feels tired after spending money!" She threw another piece of clothing at her, "Go try it on!"

Ye Ke looked at her pink face and was speechless, "Mom, do you think I look like a lady?"

"Just pick your own clothes, don't worry about me!" He handed the clothes to the salesperson beside him, "Please help my mother pick out a few suitable ones for her. The price doesn't matter, as long as they look good!"

Ye Wenhui said "Hey" with a proud look on her face, "I don't need you to teach me! I can't treat myself badly!"

Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent on buying a house and a car, so Ye Wenhui really doesn't care about the small amount of money spent on buying clothes.

Ye Wenhui made up her mind that even if she was really hurt, she would not let Ye Ke see it, so that she would not get the chance to teach her a lesson.

The shopping guide standing by was amused. She had never seen a mother and daughter bickering with each other over every word, and it was all for each other's good.

"Your daughter is worried about you!" The salesperson beside her smiled and took Ye Wenhui aside. "I'll take you to see our store..."

Ye Wenhui glared at Ye Ke and followed the salesperson away. Ye Ke turned to Ye Rou and said, "You go and pick some too. I'll keep Ruirui here."

The little guy was very energetic in the morning, jumping around all the time, but now he has fallen asleep out of exhaustion.

Ye Rou was curious: "You're not buying it?"

Ye Ke slumped on the sofa and shook his head lazily, "I'm too lazy to move. I'll buy it at the school when school starts."

The main reason I came to buy clothes today was because Ye Wenhui did some decluttering when she moved. After throwing away all the things she couldn't wear or didn't like, she only had a few pieces of clothing left.

After throwing away the clothes, Ye Wenhui kept complaining that she had no clothes to wear. She didn't say openly that she was going to buy clothes, but she was secretly reminding Ye Ke not to forget his promise to her.

How could Ye Ke dare forget? If she forgot, Ye Wenhui would chase her with a rolling pin. So, right? As soon as she finished moving, Ye Ke took the initiative to put shopping for clothes on the agenda.

Ye Ke had no intention of joining in the fun. Ye Wenhui had been stingy with herself, but generous with her. Every season, she would buy her new clothes. When Ye Ke moved, many of her clothes were in fashion, so she didn't throw any away.

"Look at this one!" Ye Wenhui came over excitedly, looking very satisfied.

She was wearing a long, V-neck dress in a royal blue color. It was fitted but not tight, and the silk texture made her look even more elegant. It was beautiful, but Ye Ke always felt that something was missing.

"It's beautiful! Didn't you say you wanted to buy seven colors? This is just one!"

She was afraid that Ye Wenhui would feel bad about the money again.

Ye Wenhui rolled her eyes at her, knowing she was teasing, and in a good mood, she didn't care, "I have to do it one by one!"

For three whole hours, Ye Wenhui and her aunts walked back and forth in the mall. If they couldn't find what they liked in one store, they would go to the next one. They found something new in every store.

While Ye Wenhui was trying on clothes inside, Ye Ke came to the jewelry store opposite. When she passed by just now, she immediately thought of what Ye Wenhui was missing.

Ye Wenhui has no jewelry.

There was also a gold ring that Liu Mingjun had given her, but it was later secretly sold by Ye Wenhui.

When Ye Ke saw the pearl necklace on the counter for the first time, he felt that it should be worn on Ye Wenhui's neck.

The shopping guide took the initiative to introduce the matching bracelet and earrings. Ye Ke asked about the price and bought them together.

When I returned to the clothing store, Ye Wenhui hadn't come out yet.

Ye Ke breathed a sigh of relief. It was strange. It wasn't a bad thing, so why was it so exciting?

After buying clothes, the ladies picked out a few pieces for the men in their families.

In my aunt's words, "So they don't have to hide in their beds and secretly wipe away their tears."

My uncle was angry but dared not speak out.

After a full day of non-stop walking, even the toughest Ye Wenhui couldn't take it anymore. She collapsed on the sofa as soon as she got home. "Before we had cars, we could walk for two or three hours to the county town without feeling tired. How come I'm tired after just a short stroll now?"

Ye Ke didn't respond. He took out the necklace, held it in his palm, and motioned Ye Wenhui to stretch out her hand.

Ye Wenhui didn't understand why, but she did as she was told.

"Ding Ding!" The necklace fell into Ye Wenhui's palm.

Each pearl is round and plump, exuding a pure breath, and is reflected on Ye Wenhui's rough palm.

Ye Ke suddenly felt a little sad when he looked at these hands.

Before his emotions could burst out, he was interrupted by Ye Wenhui.

"Oh! Is this a pearl necklace?" Ye Wenhui shook Ye Ke's shoulders with a look of surprise. Without waiting for Ye Ke's reaction, she praised, "It's really beautiful, so white and bright!"

Ye Wenhui couldn't come up with any sophisticated words, and could only use praise to express her joy and satisfaction.

Ye Ke took out the matching bracelet and earrings. Ye Wenhui was even happier now. "Hurry, hurry, hurry! Put them on me!"

After Ye Ke put it on her, she suddenly felt that the clothes she was wearing did not match the jewelry, and quickly said she wanted to change her clothes.

When Ye Ke took a look, he saw that it was the imperial concubine-colored long dress!

As expected, mother and daughter are connected by heart. Ye Ke's aesthetic sense is also very good. The necklace and the skirt complement each other, making Ye Wenhui look extremely gentle and ten years younger.

Ye Wenhui looked at herself in the mirror again and again, overjoyed. But then she felt it wasn't enough, so she left Ye Ke and ran to show off to her sister-in-law.

Ye Ke was too bored at home alone, so he ran to play with his uncle.

"Buy a house? Don't you already have one? What else is there to buy?"

Ye Ke patiently explained, "Investment. Didn't you say you didn't know what to do with the money? Why don't you call the others over and we can discuss it together?"

My uncle didn’t understand, but he did it anyway.

After his uncle, aunt, and Ye Rou's family arrived, Ye Ke questioned, "We still have so much money on hand, we can't just put it in the bank and earn interest, right?"

My aunt was deep in thought. "How about buying some financial products? I heard from the bank president that the interest rate is quite high."

"Well, I don't know how to manage my finances, so if I lose money, I'll just have to suffer in silence."

My aunt opened her mouth in surprise, "How can we still pay it back? Aren't we saving money?"

My aunt pulled her aside and patiently explained, "Sister-in-law, saving money is saving money, and financial management is financial management. Financial management means investing the money you deposit in the bank. If the investment makes money, you also make money. If it loses money, your capital will also be lost!"

What? This money wouldn't just increase, it would decrease?!

My aunt patted her chest in shock, feeling anxious and worried. Fortunately, she didn't get carried away when checking the accounts. "That bank president said something nice to me! Fortunately, I didn't listen to his blind investment, otherwise my savings would have been dwindling!"

Ye Rou also smiled and comforted her, "When it comes to investment, only the experts know the ins and outs. We laymen can only watch the fun. No one in our group understands it, so let's not join in the fun."

Seeing that the conversation was getting off track, Ye Ke quickly got back to the point, "Let's talk about the house first!"
