Chapter 548 What Strange People Have Arrived
The talent show has officially started, and everyone is extremely busy.
Lin Yuyao frowned repeatedly as she watched those young faces performing their incredibly rustic talents.
Everyone who signs up gets a spot, but the quality of the preliminary rounds varies greatly; you can find all sorts of strange people there.
Some people's performances are so embarrassing they'd dig their toes into the ground, but they still seem to be having a lot of fun.
The whole thing was recorded; it'll probably become a huge meme in a few years.
It's tough on them to give scores; even the strangest person has to watch the performance and then give their evaluation.
On the first day, Lin Yuyao sat with them until the end.
Fu Huaiyi was so busy last year that he missed the opportunity to have a baby.
Lin Yuyao has been busy again this year.
Neither of them got pregnant, and both were somewhat disappointed.
They went to the hospital for a check-up before trying to conceive, and both of them were fine, so why didn't they get pregnant?
Zhou Jing comforted her, saying, "What's the big deal? As long as you're both healthy, you're fine. It's only been two or three months, there's plenty of time."
Lin Yuyao thought that they might be too nervous.
Having a child is a natural thing, but they treat it as a task to be completed.
"Forget it, let nature take its course. I'll be back late tomorrow, or maybe not at all, so don't wait for me tonight."
what?
Isn't she coming back?
Now he enjoys the treatment of waiting anxiously every night.
Lin Yuyao smiled and comforted him, saying, "You'll only be busy for a few days; things will get better in a few days."
"Then you should also make sure to get plenty of rest."
“I don’t do any work, I just stand by and watch, and someone even brings me tea.”
The next day, she went to Fu Leyi's house first.
She made appointments with several clothing stores, and they brought the clothes to her door.
In addition to a manager, there were two waiters who were there to help her change clothes.
I hung up the clothes one by one and showed them to her.
This is high-end VIP treatment. Lin Yuyao is not short of money now, but she doesn't spend enough to enjoy it.
Of course, she is now enjoying the benefits, thanks to Fu Leyi.
The two of them sat on the sofa watching the waiter's demonstration and listening to the manager's introduction.
The fabric, the workmanship, and every accessory are described in great detail.
This is practically a live broadcast.
They were too lazy to change their clothes, so the waiters helped them try them on and showed them to the staff.
Look at this life, Lin Yuyao never even dreamed of it in her past life, because she had never seen it.
The manager was very professional; the clothes he recommended to each of them were just right, even more accurate than their own judgment.
In the end, they each kept more than a dozen sets.
Two hours later, the manager left with two waiters and the remaining clothes, beaming with joy.
Looking at the clothes neatly arranged next to the sofa, Lin Yuyao suddenly came to her senses.
"Oh dear, I only plan to buy two sets."
Fu Leyi laughed and said, "Now you know how formidable they are, right?"
"sharp."
How could it not be amazing? She got completely carried away by the introduction and bought more than a dozen sets in one go.
She seriously suspected that with the manager's silver tongue, if he were selling crutches, he could easily fool an innocent person into becoming crippled.
Lin Yuyao glanced at the time and said, "Sister, I have to go."
"No rush." She picked out one of the outfits and said, "Put this on."
"It's okay, it's clean."
Lin Yuyao nodded, took her clothes, and went inside to change.
She came out quickly, and Fu Leyi nodded in satisfaction, "This outfit is nice; it suits your status perfectly."
She arrived a little late today after looking at the clothes; Song Qin had already arrived.
Her eyes lit up when she saw Lin Yuyao's brand-new outfit. "When did you buy this outfit?"
"today."
"Did you go shopping for clothes just now?"
"Yes, Sister Leyi made an appointment to look at clothes, so I bought a few sets as well."
"Oh, if it's clothes that President Fu invited you to look at, then it's no ordinary item." As he was speaking, he noticed the brand of a luxury brand on the clothes.
"Sure, they've got new styles again? I'll go buy some in a few days."
Chen Bingzhi, who was standing next to him, leaned over and said, "I'll go too."
"What are you going to do?"
"Buying clothes."
"They only sell women's clothing."
"I can buy women's clothing too, I can always buy it as a gift, right?"
Watching them bicker was almost like watching them flirt.
For some reason, neither of them admitted to being in a relationship.
Since they didn't acknowledge it, Lin Yuyao didn't press them and simply pretended not to know anything.
……
Lin Yuyao went home that evening. When she got home, she saw more than a dozen bags neatly placed in the living room.
“My sister had it delivered; she said it was clothes you bought together.”
Lin Yuyao was quite embarrassed as she saw a large pile of bags. "I originally only planned to buy two items, but I didn't expect the manager to be so persuasive. I got carried away by his sales pitch and ended up buying so many without realizing it."
Fu Huaiyi said, "My mom and the others buy them the same way, it's normal."
Lin Yuyao suddenly remembered that Fu Huaiyi lived in such a family, and he had seen it many times.
But when she saw the bags all over the floor, her first reaction was to worry that he would think she was a spendthrift.
To ordinary people, who buys clothes like this?
This is probably the difference between sudden wealth and natural wealth.
People say that it's best for two people to marry someone of similar social standing, and there's a reason for that.
Since everyone's circumstances are similar and their consumption habits are aligned, many problems can be avoided.
For example, when buying clothes, Fu Leyi once complained that the Pan family always complained that she spent too much money, saying that this was expensive and that was wasteful, and that she was not happy even when spending her own money.
But if your partner is from a similar social class, you won't have these worries.
Especially for girls, because their in-laws won't dislike a daughter-in-law who is thrifty and hardworking, but they will dislike a daughter-in-law who spends money extravagantly.
Fu Huaiyi, having nothing better to do, has amassed a collection of currency, including this year's commemorative banknotes and some ancient coins; no one knows where he found them.
"Is this thing fake?"
"No way, the boss and I know each other very well, he wouldn't sell me fake goods."
"That's hard to say. Some people specifically target acquaintances."
Fu Huaiyi smiled and said, "Then you can't question my judgment. I've checked it all, and there's no problem."
Lin Yuyao: "You really know about this?"
"Of course, I'll find a job at a museum when I retire."
Lin Yuyao: "..." I still have to work even after retirement?
"What are you thinking? Maybe we'll rehire you to teach students."
Fu Huaiyi thought to himself, he wouldn't accept a re-employment offer. He'd finally made it to retirement; couldn't he at least enjoy his hobbies?
He spent a long time browsing the shelf before finally choosing a bowl.
"What do you think about me giving this as a gift?"
Lin Yuyao was taken aback. "Who is it for?"
“Old Wang, he’s officially retiring next week and said he’d treat us to a farewell dinner. Coincidentally, that day is his birthday, and I thought it wouldn’t be right to go empty-handed since it’s his birthday, so I was going to give him a gift. Even though he’s gone, his nephew has taken over his job; the newly appointed Minister Xu calls him Second Uncle.”
Lin Yuyao remembered that Minister Xu was Old Wang's relative; it turned out he was his nephew.
