Chapter 93 Taking Mom Shopping for Clothes
Seeing that his mother, grandmother, and aunt had started wiping away tears, Lin Chuan walked to the front and led the younger children, letting them cry on their own in the back.
But why does Lin Yue look like she's about to cry? Didn't I tell you that you'd be moving there later? And we'll see each other again in a few days. I don't understand.
Lin Yang is so much better; he seems so carefree, and he's laughing loudly right now.
We agreed to meet at eight o'clock, but when we arrived at the roadside it was only a little past seven, but Tong Hong was already waiting.
The old man stepped forward to offer cigarettes, and Tong Hong, knowing that this was Lin Chuan's grandfather, was very polite.
After loading everything into the car, Mom led Lin Feng and Lin Xue to sit in the back, while Lin Chuan sat in the passenger seat.
Just as they were about to leave, a sudden, earth-shattering cry erupted; it was Lin Yang.
Tears streamed down his face as he cried out, "Brother, I can't bear to leave you! Can I go with you now?"
His aunt, looking exasperated, pulled him aside, covered his mouth, and said that crying was unlucky when traveling.
Seeing that his aunt had already raised her hand and Lin Yang was about to be hit, Lin Chuan quickly poked his head out:
"Auntie, don't hit him. Xiao Yang is still young. If he wants to go, he can get in the car now and go with us."
A glimmer of hope appeared in Lin Yang's eyes, but his aunt immediately dashed it:
"Xiao Chuan, let him go in a few days. He didn't bring any clothes with him. He can go with his dad in a few days."
Lin Chuan gave Lin Yang a helpless look. He knew his aunt would definitely not agree to his suggestion to buy the clothes in the county town.
After exchanging greetings with everyone, Lin Chuan signaled Tong Hong to drive; if they delayed any longer, they could chat for another half hour.
Even as the car turned the corner, Lin Chuan still saw them standing on the side of the road.
Suppressing his emotions, Lin Chuan began to chat with Tong Hong. They arrived in the county town before nine o'clock.
Lin Chuan picked out some dried goods from the bag, intending to take them as gifts later.
He threw the two large bags in the car, told Tong Hong to take them to the police station, and asked Liu Jianshe to find a place to put them. He also mentioned that they would go out for lunch.
Upon hearing this, Tong Hong realized that since his whole family had gone to the director's house for dinner, he would not refuse such a small matter.
"Xiao Chuan, you guys go upstairs, I'll stay down here and guard the things."
"It's alright, Mom, carry it upstairs."
The department store doesn't have a rule against bringing things in, but you can't bring things inside the store, in case they get stolen.
Most people leave their items outside to be watched over, because the scrutinizing gaze of the shop assistants when brought inside makes them very uncomfortable.
Lin Chuan was naturally not afraid, and he did not encounter any scrutinizing gazes when he entered.
Lin Chuan had spent several thousand yuan in a single transaction not long ago, yet most of the staff here still remembered him.
Some of the quick-thinking shop assistants greeted him, hoping he would buy something.
This guy is a real money magnet; he treats money like it's nothing. If someone comes and spends a lot of money, the commission he gets is no small amount.
Lin Chuan smiled and nodded when someone greeted him, but since he was only there to buy clothes, he naturally disappointed many people.
As I stood outside the clothing store, a saleswoman in her thirties came out to greet me.
"Hey sir, are you bringing your family to buy clothes? Come on in."
Lin Chuan pulled her aside: "These are my mom and my sister. It's up to you how much clothing you can convince them to buy. The more the better, clothes for all four seasons."
There's no such thing as new styles or seasonal items these days; you can buy one set of clothes and wear it for many years.
There might not be such a good opportunity to call my mom over next time, so I'll buy as much as I can.
The eldest sister's eyes lit up when she heard Lin Chuan's words. No limits? That was great! She was very confident in her eloquence.
"Don't worry, young man, just watch me," the older woman said, turning to look at the bag in Lin Chuan's hand.
"Hey buddy, what's in your bag? Want me to find you a place to put it?"
Although there is no precedent for letting customers bring their bags in, we can't just leave this cash cow standing outside, and precedents aren't unbreakable.
"It's nothing valuable, just some dried vegetables I got from my grandfather. Here you go."
Lin Chuan handed the bag to the older woman and casually asked, "Do you have a fitting room here?"
"The fitting room?"
The older woman was taken aback; this was the first time she had heard of such a question. Nowadays, you're not allowed to try on clothes when they're sold; at most, you can only pick them up and hold them up.
However, the meaning of the words "fitting room" was immediately clear, and the older woman's mind raced:
"There's no fitting room, but there is a storage room where you can try things on."
"Alright, it's up to you guys now."
After leaving his mother and Lin Xue with his eldest sister, Lin Chuan took Lin Feng on a shopping spree.
However, the two only bought summer clothes, not thick clothes. Five sets each, enough for the whole summer.
After packing the clothes, Lin Chuan went to the women's clothing section. His mother had already picked out two outfits, and Lin Xue had picked out three.
"Xiao Chuan, is this enough? You have enough to wear."
"Mom, it's okay. You've come all this way, so buy a lot more. After you buy the summer clothes, you can buy some winter clothes. You'll have to buy them eventually anyway, and thick clothes are much cheaper now."
"I already have winter clothes, why would I buy winter clothes now?"
"Sister, your son is right. It's much cheaper to buy winter clothes now than in winter. This is also a sign of your son's filial piety. Why don't you come and try it out? No money back if you don't buy anything."
Back when they said at the entrance of Linchuan that there were no seasonal restrictions, the eldest sister came in and arranged for someone to get the inventory, and now quite a lot has been moved out.
When my mom heard it was cheap, she reluctantly went with me.
Lin Xue skipped over, asking, "Brother, do I look good in this?"
Lin Xue was wearing a light yellow floral dress, which was actually quite similar to the pale yellow floral dress that Lin Chuan had bought for her before.
However, after being nourished by oily food for a while, Lin Xue has gained a lot of weight. Her face is round and rosy, which matches the dress perfectly.
Lin Chuan nodded without hesitation: "They look great, Xiaoxue looks the best. Let's go pick out some more with your sister. Buy as many as you want today."
"Um."
Lin Xue was overjoyed and followed the happy saleswoman. Not only could she earn money, but being called "sister" by a little kid was also incredibly exciting.
Lin Chuan first paid for his and Lin Feng's men's clothing, and then gave the other party another 300 yuan.
"How much will it cost in a bit? You can deduct three hundred yuan."
Lin Chuan is now coaxing his mother into buying him clothes, but if they are too expensive at checkout, he's afraid she won't want them, or she'll hesitate for a long time after buying them. So he simply pays 300 yuan upfront.
The cashier's eyes lit up. Sure enough, this was a money-making opportunity. He was paying before he had even finished buying the items, which was something she had never seen before. She quickly agreed.
"Hello, the total is three hundred and eight. We'll round down the eight yuan to you, so you can just give us three hundred."
Lin Chuan took out three hundred yuan, picked up his bags and pulled his mother out the door.
My mom was still a little dizzy even after we left the department store.
"Xiao Chuan, all these clothes only cost three hundred yuan?"
"Yeah, it's cheaper off-season, and since we're buying a lot, it's even cheaper."
"It doesn't seem expensive."
"Right? We'll come back to buy again next time."
