After finishing their dinner, Guan Xiaoqing and her family leisurely strolled out of the Guan family home.

By this time, it was already dark, and the streetlights were on, making it quite lively! Leaving the Guan family's house, you would find yourself on the city streets, and a little further on, you would reach the largest night market street in the vicinity.

The night market at this moment is like it's been enchanted!

The neon lights, in all their colors, shone brightly in the night sky, illuminating the outlines of the newly built skyscrapers as if they were in a painting. Even the areas without streetlights were as bright as day, and the whole city was bustling with activity, more crowded than during the day.

Seeing these familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar buildings, Lu Weifeng was filled with emotion. This was the early stage of development in the 1990s!

Business opportunities abound, like bamboo shoots sprouting in spring. The door to the market economy burst open with a bang, and shops along the street are filled with all sorts of signs.

Right now, the loudspeakers of township enterprises and the frenzy for stock subscription certificates are blaring at the same time!

Individual vendors sell imported jeans on tricycles, while entrepreneurs in office buildings travel the world with pagers clipped to their devices, searching for foreign trade orders.

Lu Weifeng felt that every nook and cranny of the city was filled with the adventurous spirit of "being the first to try something new." Lu Weifeng felt that if he didn't take the first bite of this new crab, he would feel like he had lived in vain.

Lu Weifeng was thinking that his family had no savings left, and he wondered if his mother-in-law would object if he swallowed his pride and asked her for a loan.

But if you don't make money quickly, where will you get the chance to buy stocks that can make you a fortune in the future?

Lu Weifeng's only way to make money quickly is through this method.

Lu Weifeng and Guan Xiaoqing held their daughter's little hand, lost in thought, and the family walked silently through the crowd.

Little Lu Chuyu glanced at her father, then at her mother, pointed to the street vendor selling candied hawthorns, and said in her childish voice, "Daddy, candy, Yu wants some~"

Before her husband could speak, Guan Xiaoqing immediately refused, "You little glutton, didn't you eat enough at Grandma's house? You want to eat everything you see. Aren't you afraid your little teeth will get cavities?"

"Mom, you're mean, hmph." When Lu Chuyu saw her mother refuse, she immediately turned her head away angrily. She knew her mother wouldn't buy it for her, which was why she called for her father. She should have known better than to let her mother hear it.

"Don't try to be difficult with me. I won't fall for that. If I say you can't eat it, I mean it."

Seeing that Lu Chuyu was angry and ignoring her, Guan Xiaoqing felt a little soft-hearted, but she had already eaten quite a lot at home and couldn't eat anything else, for fear that she wouldn't be able to digest it.

Lu Weifeng saw his wife reasoning with their daughter, but he didn't interrupt. However, his daughter wouldn't listen to his wife, and he knew that his wife was easily moved to tears and had a soft heart.

If his daughter were to shed a couple of tears right now, his wife would probably have to give in to her.

Lu Weifeng could only say to Lu Chuyu with a bitter face, "Yuyu, we have to listen to Mom. Mom is the eldest in our family. We have to listen to whatever Mom says, right?"

Lu Chuyu can now understand what adults say, but she still can't speak very fluently.

Seeing that her parents were staring at her, she could only nod and act cute towards her mother, "Mom, you're the best, Yu Yu will be obedient."

Seeing that her daughter was obedient, Guan Xiaoqing promised her in a sweet voice, "That's right, our Yuyu is the best girl. Tomorrow, Mommy will buy Yuyu some sweet candy, okay? Aren't you happy?"

Upon hearing that there would be candy tomorrow, Lu Chuyu immediately became happy and lively. Holding her father's hand in one hand and her mother's hand in the other, she hopped and skipped like an adorable little rabbit.

As the family of three drew closer to their street stall, the streetlights began to illuminate the area one by one, their warm yellow glow like gentle angels, lighting up the streets and alleys.

It also dispelled some of the night's chill and pointed out the bustling area to those who came to stroll.

"Let's skip the night market. It's too crowded, and there's nothing worth buying at the stalls. Let's stroll around the commercial street first."

Lu Weifeng nodded in agreement, "Okay, whatever you arrange." He didn't care where he went, as long as his wife and children were by his side.

The shops on both sides of the commercial street are brightly lit, and the light boxes on their signs emit a soft and bright light, attracting people's attention.

Inside the shopping mall, a dazzling array of goods are displayed under bright lights. People stroll among them, selecting their favorite items, and laughter echoes in the air.

The night market not far away gradually came alive, with the lights on the stalls intertwining to form a dazzling sea of ​​light.

The aroma of various snacks filled the air, complementing the lights and creating an intoxicating, lively atmosphere.

Outside the dance hall, neon lights flashed incessantly, and dynamic music emanated from within, as if beckoning to the young people.

Young people, dressed in fashionable clothes, stepped lightly into the dance hall, as if entering a world full of joy and passion, ready to fully enjoy their wonderful time.

Guan Xiaoqing stood at the entrance of the dance hall, her gaze drawn to the young people coming and going.

Her eyes sparkled with excitement and curiosity, and her face beamed with eagerness.

She turned to her husband beside her and said expectantly, "Honey, shall we go in and see what it's like inside?"

Lu Weifeng wasn't interested in the suggestion. He frowned and replied firmly, "No, it's a mess inside, what's there to see? Let's go shopping first and I'll buy you some clothes."

Guan Xiaoqing was somewhat disappointed, but still asked persistently, "I heard that girls can enter for free, while boys only pay two yuan. I wonder if that's true?"

Lu Weifeng clearly disagreed with this claim. He shook his head and insisted on his own opinion: "Don't listen to those people, they're all lies. There's nothing interesting inside, let's go shopping instead."

Guan Xiaoqing sighed helplessly, understanding her husband's thoughts.

However, our family's financial situation is not good right now, and we don't have extra money to buy clothes.

However, she couldn't help but mutter, "We don't even have money for living expenses right now, so why buy clothes? Just look at them."

Actually, if she really came here to buy clothes, Guan Xiaoqing said she would never have come here in the first place.

She prefers to go to large shopping malls, even though the prices may be higher, because the quality is more guaranteed.

Although the clothes in the stores here are stylish and relatively inexpensive, Guan Xiaoqing feels that the quality is not very good.

She enjoys the lively atmosphere here and the various delicacies at the night market, but when it comes to buying clothes, she pays more attention to comfort.

It's not that she's arrogant, it's just that she's used to it.

Looking at his understanding wife, Lu Weifeng felt no comfort whatsoever; instead, he felt a surge of indescribable sorrow.

He couldn't help but recall when his wife lived with her father. As the only daughter in the family, she never needed to live such a frugal life.
