Chapter 210: Chapter 210: Making a Presence Felt
Chapter 210: Chapter 210: Making a Presence Felt
Their town was really too small, with limited spending power; there was no place that sold gold jewelry except for the department store in the county, which only had a few simple styles.
This also spared him the trouble of choosing himself, as he could just say how much money to spend and that would be it.
The sentiment impressed the sales clerk Xiao Zhou so much that he exclaimed from the heart, “Comrade Jiang, you really are a good husband who loves his wife.”
A gold necklace wasn’t actually too expensive; quite a few city folks could buy one if they gritted their teeth, but not many women actually owned one.
For one thing, the money for a gold necklace could buy a bicycle, or enough meat for meals for more than half a year.
Secondly, because of past excesses, people were also reluctant to wear them openly, fearing they’d be labeled as capitalists.
The praised Jiang Changhai was not modest at all and said, “Sis, when you start dating, find a man like your brother here, who can spend nine out of ten dollars on his wife and children.”
Back at home, after handing over the other things to his mother, he gleefully went back to his room to show off, “Hehe, wife, guess what I bought you.”
While speaking, he took the shiny gold necklace out of his pocket and dangled it in front of Su Wanyu.
Su Wanyu immediately shouted in surprise, “Ah, a gold necklace? Where did you buy it? Our town doesn’t have places selling gold.”
“I had someone buy it at the county department store. Do you like it?”
“I like it.” Su Wanyu kissed Jiang Changhai and then happily went to look at herself in the mirror with the necklace.
Sitting nearby and doing homework, Jiang Mianmian blinked her big eyes and asked, “Dad, do you have something for me too?”
She wasn’t really expecting a gift, she just felt left out and wanted to make her presence felt.
“Of course, I have yours. I could forget anyone, but I couldn’t forget my daughter.” Like pulling a rabbit out of a hat, Jiang Changhai pulled out a bag of Milk Candy from inside his cotton jacket.
“Thank you, Dad. You are the best.”
Jiang Mianmian was also thrilled to see the Milk Candy, hugging the candy and smiling until her eyes curved.
In those days, Milk Candy was quite expensive, costing several times more than the fruit candies her father had previously bought for her.
Seeing how happy she was, Jiang Changhai raised his hand and ruffled her little head with a smile, “It’s just a bag of candies. Look how happy you are. If you like them, I’ll buy them for you again next time.”
“Mm-hmm.”
Jiang Mianmian nodded and began unwrapping the packaging. She unwrapped a piece of candy and fed it to her dad, “Tasty, isn’t it?”
“Tasty. I’ll go feed your mom one.”
Jiang Changhai said as he took a piece of Milk Candy and walked over to his wife, who was looking at herself in the mirror, “Ah~ wife, open your mouth.”
Jiang Mianmian: …
She quietly spit out the ‘dog food’ she was fed and enjoyed a piece of the rich, creamy Milk Candy.
“Brother Hai, does it look nice on me?” Su Wanyu, wearing the gold necklace, twirled around Jiang Changhai, letting him see it from every angle.
“It looks good. My wife looks good in anything,” Jiang Changhai praised generously.
Su Wanyu, pleased with herself, wandered around a bit before reluctantly taking off the necklace.
Seeing this, Jiang Changhai said, “Wife, why are you taking it off? It looks so good on you, just keep wearing it.”

Su Wanyu pouted, “It’s too flashy. I’m afraid mom and my younger siblings will see and start talking nonsense again.”
She didn’t want to hear their sarcastic and sour comments on her birthday.
Jiang Changhai was unconcerned, “It’s fine, wife. Just wear it. I won’t let mom scold you, and as for the others, let them be jealous.”
