Chapter 724: High Official (12)

While Zhang Tan took Xiaobai to buy gifts for his uncle's family, he also bought several new winter clothes for Xiaobai.

Her winter clothes are still from last year. Zhang Tan bought them for her last year, but a year has passed. The child has grown one year older, stronger and taller, and her clothes, pants, socks, and shoes are all too small. , I can barely wear it, but it doesn’t fit.

Children's clothes change quickly. For this reason, Malanhua often complained, saying that Xiaobai, a melon, grew up too fast and could not afford to buy clothes. She hoped that she would grow up slowly and it would be best to stay small.

In the evening, Zhang Tan sent Xiaobai back to her uncle's house, carrying large and small bags. He happened to meet the Tan family sisters who were returning from shopping in the alley downstairs. Xi'er enthusiastically helped and carried the bags with Xiaobai. She climbed the stairs wearing new clothes and new shoes, and occasionally glanced at the clothes in the bag, curious and excited, as if she also had new clothes.

"Sister, let me help Xiaobai deliver the clothes to her house."

When they arrived in the corridor, Xi'er did not go to Xiaobai's house immediately. Instead, she stood at the stairs and asked Tan Jin'er who was two steps behind.

"Go ahead."

Xi'er immediately caught up with Xiaobai, carrying the bag with both hands, and helped her deliver the clothes to her home. She asked Xiaobai where she had put them. After putting them down, she was reluctant to leave. She stood aside with a silly smile, wanting to see what the new clothes in the bag looked like. of.

But Tan Jin'er followed closely. She brought the fresh fruits she bought and took Xi'er away by the way.

"Sister, Xiaobai has a lot of new clothes, I haven't looked at them yet." Back in the corridor, Xi'er said reluctantly to Tan Jin'er.

Tan Jin'er led her home, squatted in front of her, and straightened her small clothes.

The clothes were clean and tidy, and fairly new, but they were already a bit ill-fitting and felt tight on the body.

Tan Jin'er said: "Xi'er has grown up. Look at your sleeves, are they a little tight? The cuffs are a bit too small and too short. My sister will take you to buy new clothes tomorrow."

"hiahia~~" Xi'er laughed twice and suddenly whispered: "Sister, do we have money?"

"Yes!" Tan Jin'er stood up and said, "Isn't my sister working every day? I have made money."

Seeing that Xi'er's face was still worried, she emphasized: "A lot!"

Xi'er hiahia smiled, "My sister is so amazing——"

Tan Jin'er smiled and touched her little head: "Tomorrow we will buy new clothes and burn incense together on New Year's Day."

"I want to buy it for my sister too. I don't have enough money, so I don't want it. Sister, look, Xi'er has a lot of little clothes. There are still some in the cabinet."

"No, you can't wear the clothes in the closet anymore because you've grown up."

"There are still a lot of my sister's old clothes."

"I don't want those anymore. I'll throw them away later and buy you new ones."

Xi'er raised her little face, stared at Tan Jin'er, and said seriously: "Sister, I don't like Xiaobai's new clothes. It's true. Xi'er just went to play, hiahiahia~~~"

Tan Jin'er turned her head and went to the kitchen.

"Sister is going to make dinner. Anyway, we are going to buy new clothes tomorrow. Chinese New Year is coming soon. We will dress beautifully and go home together..."

Before she finished speaking, she had already entered the kitchen and disappeared from Xi'er's eyes.

Xi'er stood there for a while, followed gently to the kitchen door, lay on the edge of the door, looked in, and saw her sister cutting vegetables with her back to her: "Hehe~~Sister! Sister~~~ ~”

She yelled several times before Tan Jin'er looked back at her: "What are you doing?"

Xi'er made a face and pulled her little face with her hands to make her happy.

"Aww~~~Aww, hiahia, is Xi'er scary?"

Tan Jin'er couldn't laugh or cry: "Stop it, you are losing your teeth, doesn't it hurt?"

Xi'er took a breath. One of her baby teeth was shaky and painful. She reached into her mouth and took out a small thing! ! !

She put the small thing she pinched out of her mouth into the palm of her hand and looked at it carefully.

"What's wrong? Did your tooth fall out?"

Tan Jin'er wiped her hands on her apron and nervously came over to check. Suddenly, Xi'er stuffed the little thing in her heart back into her mouth.

"Let the teeth grow back."

Tan Jiner: (ΩДΩ)!

"You can't put them back. If a tooth falls out, it's gone. It can't grow back!"

Xi'er blinked, thought for a while and said, "If you eat it in your belly, two teeth will grow in spring."

Beep, Beep, Beep, I ate it in two or three bites! ! !

Tan Jiner: (ΩДΩ)!

"Spit it out! You can't eat it! Hurry!"

She quickly stretched out her hand to pinch Xi'er's mouth and make her spit out the teeth she had eaten. Unexpectedly, the little guy suddenly laughed and jumped away.

"hiahiahiahiahia~~~~~"

Xi'er skipped back to the living room, climbed onto the sofa, and rolled on it, laughing until her stomach hurt.

Tan Jin'er caught up with him and was suspicious for a while. He thought of something and couldn't laugh or cry. He half-complained and half-pityed and asked: "Is that candy you just ate?"

“hiahiahia~~~”

Xi'er smiled and rolled on the sofa, very happy.

Tan Jin'er caught her rolling little body, picked her up and sat her up, and asked again: "Is it candy? You tease your sister, right?"

She sniffed Xier's mouth. In addition to the milky scent of a baby, there was also some sweet apple smell, which should be candy. Then she checked her teeth, especially the cavities on the left side, which were still there.

Xier nodded while smiling.

Tan Jiner: "...Little guy, you have learned to lie to your sister."

On the other side, Xiaobai's house.

Xiaobai was introducing the things she bought today to Bai Jianping and Malanhua. They were all clothes and shoes. Some of them were Xiaobai's, and some were Bai Jianping and Malanhua's.

Malanhua and Bai Jianping were embarrassed. They took a quick look. They were all high-end brands. Although they didn't know the price, the materials were stylish and the workmanship was exquisite. They were not cheap at first glance.

Malanhua specially called Zhang Tan to thank him.

She didn't say not to return them, because that would be too fake.

After hanging up the phone, Malanhua saw Xiaobai taking two big oranges from the coffee table and preparing to run out to play with Xier. She stopped her and asked tentatively: "Did you know that you were going to visit Boss Zhang on New Year's Day?"

She just heard Zhang Tan say on the phone that he was going to take Xiaobai to visit his uncle on New Year's Day.

Malanhua thought that Zhang Tan had no relatives. She had never heard him talk about relatives, nor had she heard the headmaster and Lao Li mention it. It seemed that Zhang Tan also spent every New Year and festival alone in the school. She didn't know when he had an uncle.

Zhang Tan asked for her consent, and she had no reason to refuse, so she agreed.

Xiaobai stood at the door holding a big orange orange, "I know, what's up?"

Malanhua asked, "Do you want to go?"

Xiaobai immediately said shyly, "I, I promised Boss Zhang."

Malanhua waved her hand and let her go, then turned to Bai Jianping and said, "Boss Zhang plans to take Xiaobai to his uncle's house for dinner on New Year's Day. Xiaobai agreed and doesn't seem afraid."

Bai Jianping was lying in a rocking chair watching TV, making a creaking sound.

"This is a good thing. Xiaobai will slowly integrate into Boss Zhang's life. We should encourage him."

"But I haven't heard of Zhang Tan's uncle."

"You can still know all his relatives, huh? His uncle's family?"

Bai Jianping suddenly sat up from the rocking chair, like a carp.

Malanhua was a little startled by him and glared at him, "Are you dead?"

"Old Ma! Uncle's wife is called Auntie, right?" Bai Jianping asked.

"Ha Bao! It's Auntie."

Bai Jianping looked at Malanhua as if he had seen a ghost.

"Are you going to die? I'll scatter your ashes in the Xiaoma River."

"What bullshit! Old Ma, I remember, who is Boss Zhang's aunt! Oh, hammer! She's a big official!"
