Yang Meirong stared at the shoes and said, "You really don't know how to buy things. I don't even like these shoes. They're too old, they're from ten years ago."
"Aiyaya, you guys really don't know anything. You don't know anything about fashion, yet you're saying that my taste is old-fashioned. Let me tell you, these shoes were custom-made at a private workshop. I drew the design myself, and I picked the leather myself. Including the materials and the craftsmanship cost, it costs more than 900 yuan. Do you know? Even though they're not branded, they're handmade and are very comfortable. My sister doesn't need fancy heels. If she goes to an event, my brother-in-law will prepare them for her. She usually runs around the hospital, so these shoes are the most comfortable for her there. "
After listening to Jing Zhixin's earnest advice, Huo Mien suddenly felt that it made sense...
"But a pair of shoes like this costs more than 900 yuan. Zhixin, did he scam you?" Huo Mien placed the shoes on the ground and stepped in with one foot. They fit perfectly.
"Of course not, they're worth the money. Wear them, I promise you that they won't break even if you wear them for five years." Jing Zhixin patted his chest and promised.
Qin Chu looked at them and thought that they were pretty good as well. "The design is ordinary, but the leather is good. It's perfect for you to wear for work. He really put in a lot of effort."
"Okay, okay, I'll take them. Thank you, Jing Zhixin." Huo Mien was very happy.
Huo Mien was very touched that Jing Zhixin used the money he saved to buy his sister a pair of shoes that cost almost a thousand yuan.
"Mom … can you give Sis your present too?" Jing Zhixin looked at his mother and said.
"What present?" Yang Meirong didn't seem to want to say.
"Hey, hurry up and take it out. I saw you knitting a sweater a few days ago."
"I … knitted it for myself." Yang Meirong was still stubborn.
"No way, that color is scary pink. If you dare to walk around in that sweater, I won't call you Mom anymore. I'll call you Holy Mother Empress."
After hearing what Zhixin said, Qin Chu and Huo Mien both laughed …
Yang Meirong was also embarrassed. She stood up and scolded, "Don't talk nonsense."
Yang Meirong then took out a handbag from the closet behind her and handed it to Huo Mien.
"I originally knitted it for myself, but I chose the wrong color. It's too fresh and I can't wear it. I'll give it to you."
It was obviously for Huo Mien, but Yang Meirong refused to admit it.
However, Huo Mien knew what she was thinking …
She happily took the bag. "Thank you, Mom."
Then, Huo Mien took the bag into the bedroom and changed into the sweater.
When they walked out again, everyone's eyes lit up …
She was wearing jeans and a light pink sweater with a round collar. She looked fresh and beautiful.
The sweater didn't have too many tricks or patterns. It was very simple, but the needlework was very good. Most importantly, it was knitted by his mother herself. This was a kind gesture that couldn't be bought with money.
"Wow … if my sister walked around our school in this outfit, she would be the prettiest girl on campus." Then, Jing Zhixin took out his phone and took a picture of Huo Mien.
"Don't talk nonsense." After speaking, Huo Mien looked at Qin Chu. "Does it look good?"
"Mhm, it suits you very well." Qin Chu nodded, not stingy with his compliments.
Huo Mien then walked behind Yang Meirong and wrapped his arms around her neck. He slowly said, "Mom, I'm 24 years old today. Thank you for taking care of me for twenty-four years. In the past twenty years, although you didn't let me live in a mansion, you didn't let me live on the streets. Although you didn't let me wear designer clothes that cost thousands of yuan, you didn't let me freeze. You didn't let me become a rich second-generation heir, but you never lacked my pocket money. You didn't take me to restaurants every day to eat delicacies, but you didn't starve me either. Although you were very ordinary, you gave me twenty years of true love. Even though you sometimes get angry at me, you still care about me. Time has mercilessly taken away your youthful beauty, but don't be afraid, Mom … I am willing to accompany you in the long river of time as you grow old gracefully … Thank you for putting in so much effort to raise a proud and independent Huo Mien. Mom, I love you, and I will always love you …"
After speaking, Huo Mien gently kissed Yang Meirong's wrinkled cheek …
At that moment, Yang Meirong burst into tears …
