Chapter 191 Congratulations on being grandma! (4K please subscribe and ask for monthly tickets)
At the entrance of the Patta Mall.
"Sorry, I''ve been waiting for a long time."
Li Beixing quickly walked to Chen Jingle and smiled apologetically.
Today, she wore a long off-white dress, a light blue cardigan, and a beige bag on her shoulders.
It''s still a simple and ladylike outfit.
To put it bluntly, it looks good to people, no matter how you wear it.
Chen Jingle waved his hand and said, "No, I just arrived too. Finally, there was one time before you, otherwise you would have arrived first every time, which made me very embarrassed."
Li Beixing pursed his lips: "No, didn''t you arrive earlier than me before? In fact, as long as you weren''t late for too long, it doesn''t matter if it''s a little earlier or later. Don''t make stereotypes, you have to be a man first and a woman later."
"I feel so too."
Chen Jingle chuckled and said, "Let''s go in first, it''s a bit hot outside."
Although Jiangbei at the end of October is a bit cool in the morning and evening, when encountering the good weather and sunshine like today, fans or air conditioners are still needed.
For Chen Jingle, this temperature is not high or low, and it is the most comfortable to wear short sleeves.
The two then walked in.
Chen Jingle asked with a smile: "It''s time to give full play to your shopping advantages. What''s the arrangement?"
Li Beixing thought for a while, looked at Zhou Moufu''s jewelry counter not far away, and said, "Let''s go to the jewelry counter first and buy the silver bracelet. How about it? This one is small in size and it won''t affect holding it."
"Okay!" Chen Jingle had no objection.
Zhou Moufu''s teller guide saw the two of them coming over and asked with a smile: "What do you two need?"
Li Beixing asked: "Are there any silver bracelets for full-moon babies?"
"Some, some." The shopping guide hurriedly signaled them to the other side, "These are all, you can first see if you like it."
Chen Jingle looked carefully and found that there were quite a lot of styles, which was a bit dazzling.
Li Beixing glanced around and tapped his slender fingers: "This, this, and this, please take it out and let us see."
"OK."
The shopping guide took out the three models that Li Beixing liked.
Li Beixing held it in his hand, looked at the details and asked Chen Jingle: "What do you think? Which one looks better?"
Chen Jingle looked carefully and nodded and said, "All good. If you have to say something, you need to consider one thing. Is this uneven surface with patterns harmful to the delicate skin of the baby? After all, babies are no more than adults. So I prefer this one with only simple patterns."
Li Beixing nodded slightly. She also prefers this one, and it seems that everyone''s aesthetic tastes are the same.
The shopping guide next to him quickly said, "This gentleman is very considerate, but don''t worry, our styles are carefully designed and will not happen what you said. Of course, if you are really worried, this simple style is also a good choice. Whether it is given to someone or worn by two of your own children, it is a very good choice."
My own child?
When Li Beixing heard this, his ears couldn''t help but turn red.
Chen Jingle was a little embarrassed and his eyes were slackened.
The shopping guide seemed to realize something, and was a little surprised.
Although the two handsome men and beautiful women in front of us are wearing masks, they should be quite good in terms of temperament. Not to mention the beauty, she has excellent appearance and temperament, and she looks very compatible.
Didn''t they come together yet?
But it seems that it shouldn''t be far away.
After all, the shopping guide understood it immediately and subconsciously smiled at his aunt.
Li Beixing spoke up and broke the embarrassment: "Please help me take out the other simple models."
"OK."
Simple is better. Although the shape looks much more ordinary, if you look closely, you will feel that it is a little better than the two patterns just now.
Li Beixing likes simpler style, you can tell by looking at her daily outfits.
They all seem to be very good, which one should I choose?
She was a little confused and looked at Chen Jingle.
"Or this one?"
Chen Jingle said that he pointed to the one with a cute dragon head engraved on it and said, "Simple and cute, this year is the Year of the Dragon."
This one was also the first to watch for Li Beixing.
The shopping guide smiled and said, "Both have good eyesight. Our auspicious dragon has at least the top three in sales among so many baby silver jewelry on the counter."
Li Beixing nodded, looked at the price of the label, and asked Chen Jingle: "Where is the price? Can it be accepted?"
Chen Jingle glanced at it and nodded and said, "The current price of 999 silver is 7.5 per gram, plus the handicraft fee and brand premium, it is not outrageous."
"That''s it." Li Beixing narrowed his eyes with a smile, "By the way, do you want to buy the longevity lock?"
Chen Jingle thought for a while and shook his head: "It seems that there is no such custom over us."
"Then let''s change something else."
Li Beixing looked around and saw a good-shaped golden gourd next to him. His eyes lit up and he stretched out his finger: "How is this golden gourd?"
The shopping guide smiled and said, "The gourd means both good fortune and fortune, which is also good."
Chen Jingle nodded and shook his head and said, "It''s good, but giving gifts is too expensive, which is also a burden for others. After all, the gifts you receive now will be paid back in the future. My relatives are all ordinary people, not rich and noble families. Such gifts are a bit expensive for them."
He had considered this question before.
With his relationship with his cousin Liu Guanghai, he is willing to give it to him. The problem is that you have to consider the feelings of the recipient and even other relatives who give gifts.
Things that are several thousand large can be called valuables, and many people don’t have this income for a month.
If Li Beixing really said that if you give such a golden gourd, Liu Guanghai and his wife would probably be more shocked and more surprised than surprised.
So he decided to give silver jewelry.
In daily life, people have much more acceptance of silver jewelry.
The daily gifts between relatives are different from those between lovers.
If his relatives have similar incomes to him, then there is no problem giving this.
The problem is that it is not, everyone is just ordinary people who earn average income.
What is an ordinary person?
From Chen Jingle''s perspective, everyone''s monthly expenses in diet should not exceed 2,000 yuan, even ordinary people are considered ordinary people.
For those who exceed 2,000, even if they spend most of their income on eating and drinking, they must have a high enough income.
A person like Chen Jingle is definitely not an ordinary person.
In this case, you, a junior, are you thinking of giving such expensive things?
No wonder some people say that giving gifts is a science.
If you insist on giving it away, it''s okay. It''s just that your relatives are cricketing behind your back. Then your uncle called and talked to him about life earnestly, and advised him not to spend money, but to consider it for the future. The cousin Guanghai and his wife had to spend several days accepting this fact and wondering what gift to return after his child was born.
trouble!
Having said that, the price of gold is now ridiculously high. Such a golden gourd is at least 8 grams, including labor costs and brand premium...
Chen Jingle took a look at the price, 8888.
I know why so many people like to go to Shuibei to buy gold and then go to a gold shop to process it.
Although the gold price is already high enough now, the current chaotic international situation may have to rise.
Chen Jingle muttered secretly, "It''s time to collect gold in the prosperous times."
Although the domestic market is stable, gold prices follow the international market. There is a mess outside, so it would be strange if they don’t rise.
Li Beixing thought for a moment: "You are right, but I am not careful."
When giving gifts in Jiangbei, most of the time, it is good to give gifts as soon as you get the gifts. It is not about asking others for help, and rarely send valuable gifts. This is a place where only 20 yuan is given for the New Year red envelope.
Even for a family like Li Beixing, my mother only gave her a red envelope of 100 yuan on New Year''s Eve, which is probably unimaginable for outsiders.
Of course, the pocket money you usually transfer is calculated separately.
"Are there any 1 gram golden beans?" Chen Jingle asked the shopping guide.
The shopping guide was a little disappointed when he saw the big order disappear, but after hearing what he said, he nodded quickly: "Some are some."
After saying that, he guided the two to turn to the other side.
Chen Jingle smiled and said to Li Beixing: "Give one of the small golden beans, and the pressure to receive gifts is not that great. Seeking a good intention."
Li Beixing suddenly became interested.
All golden beans are 1 gram, with various shapes, including peanuts, melon seeds, bananas, gourds, small fish ingots, etc.
She asked, "How much does this cost?"
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
The shopping guide said: "688 per piece, the price is the same."
This price is within the acceptable range of ordinary people. Currently, the domestic gold price is 620 per gram, and the processing fee is definitely needed for the brand premium. There is no way to do this. Compared with the silver bracelet just now, the processing fee is much lower.
It is acceptable for Chen Jingle, as long as the quality is guaranteed.
"Which one do you think looks good?" he asked Li Beixing.
Li Beixing looked around and smiled, "I still like the little gourd more."
Chen Jingle nodded: "Then it''s the gourd. Please help me get one, thank you."
"Okay, please wait." The shopping guide helped to take out the small golden gourd they liked and pack it in a gift box.
Chen Jingle looked at it and found that the thing has a unique shape and a pleasing color. No wonder many people on the Internet like to buy gold beans as investment.
If you start buying from more than 200 yuan per gram in 2018 and insist on buying it until now, you will definitely make a profit.
When the war started outside, he expected that the price of gold would rise, but he didn''t expect it to rise so much. But at that time, I needed money to build a house and decorate my home, so I didn’t invest in gold.
A friend bought two kilograms of gold when the price of gold was almost 300, and now he should be smiling.
Chen Jingle felt that it is difficult for poor people to become rich people. The biggest problem is the cost of trial and error. Even if there is a good and confident opportunity in front of you, as long as the cost is too high, you will not dare to take risks.
Because high costs are a risk in itself.
…
A silver bracelet and a golden bean cost 1,018 yuan in total.
Seeing that he successfully picked a good gift, Li Beixing was happier than Chen Jingle.
Chen Jingle glanced at the counter, but he stopped talking.
In fact, he wanted to give Li Beixing a piece of jewelry, but then he thought, would it be too presumptuous to give away jewelry?
After all, only those close to each other will give you this.
Especially among the opposite sex, the jewelry is given with some special meaning, whether it is a bracelet or a necklace or earring, let alone a ring.
Think about it, let’s just give up this idea.
"Send something else in the future."
Give some gifts to friends of the opposite **** that are acceptable to you.
"And then it''s baby milk powder?" Li Beixing looked at him with a wavy head.
Chen Jingle nodded: "Yes, go!"
The mother and baby area is in the supermarket on the first floor.
Chen Jingle pushed a small cart. What if there is something else you like to buy? Besides, it’s so big that it’s very tiring to hold it.
"What do you two need?"
The shopping guide in the mother and baby area saw them stopping and hurried forward to inquire.
Chen Jingle waved his hand and said, "Look at it first, there is no rush. We will take the initiative to consult if necessary."
He likes to watch it himself when he goes to supermarkets, and does not like to be sold.
"Is it a domestic one selected for imported products?" Li Beixing asked.
Chen Jingle said: "It''s good to make domestic ones."
He had done some homework in advance.
Now is no longer the era when the moon is rounder in foreign countries. Some domestic brands are also worth choosing for high quality and high standards.
It is not that foreign milk powder is of good quality, but that it is allowed to be imported.
The same thing as Hollywood movies.
Hollywood produces countless bad movies every year. The problem is that we don’t import bad movies, which gives some people some illusions, as if all Hollywood produces high-quality products.
It may also be that some stakeholders deliberately promoted this.
In fact, it is definitely not, there are many bad movies.
"If it is domestically produced, how about Feihexing Feifan? Or Wandashan? Or Junlebao Youcui? Or Jinlingguancai?"
Li Beixing has also done research in advance.
The brands she mentioned are all domestic brands with relatively high sales in the past two years, with good quality and reputation and cost-effectiveness.
There are also high prices, but since Chen Jingle said that giving gifts should not be too valuable, and it is mainly suitable, she will rule out the more expensive ones first.
As for why we need to study these? I can only say that I will use it sooner or later.
Unless she will not get married or have children in the future.
Chen Jingle thought for a while: "Or how about the end of Dashan?"
In fact, these four domestic brands have good reputations. If you insist on choosing one of these three, Chen Jingle thinks Wandashan''s reputation should be the best, but its reputation is not that great.
"Then get two cans?"
"Yeah, take it!"
Chen Jingle took two cans of milk powder from the shelves and put them on the cart.
They didn''t notice that a fat middle-aged woman not far away was shocked to see this scene, and then she thought of something interesting and showed a gloating expression.
Take out your phone and take a photo quietly.
…
"Aqin, congratulations, you''re going to be a grandmother!"
At this time, Jiang Zhiqin, who was cutting flowers at home, heard the WX message prompt and took out her cell phone to take out her phone and took a look.
It was sent by my parents'' sister-in-law.
But this seems inexplicable.
Then he frowned and replied, "Sister Xia, what did you say? Why can''t I understand what you mean?"
A photo was sent to the other side, with a sentence: "Don''t you know? Your Beixing family has started to pick maternal and child supplies. Could it be that they were pregnant and didn''t tell you?"
When Jiang Zhiqin clicked on the photo, she saw that her daughter was standing with a man. Although she only photographed her daughter''s side face, her face had a clear smile.
The man only sees his back, which gives people a strong figure.
The key is that the background of the two is in the supermarket''s mother and baby area.
“…”
Eijiki took a deep breath.
