Chapter 207 My Whole Family Can't Afford It
Zhuangzhuang squatted at the doorway, his mind preoccupied with his kiln-roasted chicken. Not seeing Jiang Yun, he grew impatient: "Duoduo? When is your father coming?"
Duoduo was gazing at the bright red peach blossoms, squatting down to pick up fallen petals, completely uninterested in when Jiang Yun would arrive: "I don't know~"
An'an propped her chin on her little hands, picked up a small stick and poked at ants, thinking about how to write the wedding invitations. After all, she had written one before, so she excitedly took on the task, only to realize at that moment that she couldn't write.
But An'an didn't dare to say anything, and she was almost driven mad with worry. After frowning and thinking for a while, she decided that she would just give her big red envelope to her brother and Yu'an brother and have them write it for her.
"A red envelope? Oh, right!"
An'an suddenly remembered that when attending a banquet, you have to give red envelopes to others, so they'll definitely receive lots and lots of red envelopes!
"What if we get too many red envelopes?"
An'an, who hadn't received a red envelope yet, was already thinking about how to spend it. Zhuangzhuang, who was standing next to her, overheard An'an's words and asked:
"What kind of red envelope?"
When Jiang Yun got out of the car and came over with a fruit basket, she saw several children who usually played together arguing heatedly at the door.
An'an: "I want to buy a princess's candy house, but I need a little red envelope first!"
Zhuangzhuang: "The candy store food isn't good. You have money now, why don't you buy some good meat? No way, I want to eat delicious beef jerky and roasted pig's trotters. These are the real good food. I want more red envelopes!"
Duoduo: "I don't want food, I want pretty cosmetics. My mom said they're all very expensive, and my family is too poor to afford them, so I need more red envelopes!"
An'an: "No way~, my dad would rather die than give me candy. He only earns one candy a day, and mine costs a lot of money~"
Zhuangzhuang: "None of your food tastes good. Can't you eat something better now that you have money? I don't understand you guys!"
Duoduo: "My mom can't afford those cosmetics, my whole family can't afford them, so I'll definitely need a lot of red envelopes!"
An'an: "My dad is too poor. I don't need many red envelopes, just a big one will do."
Zhuangzhuang: "Me too, I don't want small red envelopes, I only want big red envelopes, small red envelopes can't even buy delicious food!"
Duoduo: "Then I don't want small red envelopes either. I can only afford to buy my cosmetics with big red envelopes!"
An'an: "Then let's just have them give us the big red envelopes. We don't want the small ones anyway, they're useless!"
Zhuangzhuang and Duoduo both nodded in agreement. Zhuangzhuang then thought of the red envelopes he received during Chinese New Year, which varied in size, and asked with some confusion:
"Then how do we ask for a big red envelope?"
An'an: "Let's ask them for it! Let's make them give us a big red envelope!"
Duoduo: "Yes~, but what should I do if I'm too embarrassed?"
An'an patted Duo Duo on the shoulder like an older brother, assuring her not to worry: "I'm perfectly capable! I'll go get it!"
After saying that, An'an spotted Jiang Yun leaning against the door watching them. An'an's eyes lit up and she ran towards Jiang Yun, saying, "Daddy Duoduo~, can you give me a big red envelope?"
Seeing this, Zhuangzhuang and the others weren't to be outdone, crowding around: "Daddy Duoduo! Me too! I want a big red envelope too, I don't like small ones~"
Duoduo followed behind, and even in front of her father, she was too shy to speak. After struggling for a long time, seeing Jiang Yun frantically searching for red envelopes for them in the car, and fearing he wouldn't give her one, she finally whispered:
"Daddy... Daddy Duo? You... you can..."
"Huh? Duoduo?"
Jiang Yun had finally managed to pull out a few red envelopes, and was just about to stuff money into them when he heard his precious daughter call him that. He was startled: "What's wrong? Honey~"
"Why aren't you calling me Dad anymore? Are you angry that Dad is late? I just worked overtime for a while. Wait a minute, Dad will give you a big red envelope right away!"
Jiang Yun hadn't even stepped inside the gate, yet he'd already spent a fortune! It wasn't until he sat in the backyard that he realized he'd been tricked. Looking at the children, Duo Duo, their mouths greasy from eating...
