Chapter 21 Ten Thousand Unbeliefs
Pour the tea first, then the wine. No matter whether it is tea or wine, you cannot fill three cups at once, but pour it in three times.

As Li Ping'an lit the fireworks, they bloomed in the sky.

Sister Li Ya knelt in front of the tombstone and burned paper money.

A breeze blew by, carrying the paper ashes towards the faces of Li Pingan and Li Ya.

It was as if it was the touch of their parents.

"Dad, Mom, don't worry, I will take good care of my sister."

……

After waiting for all the open flames to be extinguished, Li Ping'an kowtowed politely before standing up, pouring the tea and wine in the wine and tea cups in front of the tombstone, and began to clean up the dishes.

After confirming again and again that there was no source of fire, Li Pingan and his sister left.

The brother and sister took the bus to the bustling street, looking at the street scene which was even more lively than yesterday. In an instant, the rich and mellow New Year atmosphere came over them like an invisible wave, wrapping them tightly.

Li Ya, who was standing next to her brother, had 1000 yuan given by her brother in her pocket.

My eyes wandered among the dazzling array of goods, and for a moment I was a little overwhelmed, not knowing what exactly I wanted to buy.

"Go buy what you want, and come back to see me when you're done."

Li Pingan gave brief instructions, and then, following the shopping list that had been carefully compiled on his phone, he walked towards each store with a clear goal and firm steps, starting his busy shopping journey.

Li Ya behind him was about to call out "Brother", but before she could even finish her words, she found that her brother had quickly entered the only large supermarket on the street and disappeared into the crowd.

Thinking about it carefully, as for clothes, my brother had already bought two sets when he came back, so I don’t seem to be short of anything.

As for food, there is no need to mention it. Even when my brother was at school, he would often send me various snacks, so I didn't have much demand in this regard.

Feeling extremely bored, Li Ya had no choice but to stroll leisurely on the street alone, her eyes casually moving between the shops and pedestrians on the street.

Until... a familiar figure suddenly appeared in her sight, it was her classmate Zhang Wenjing!

"Li Ya!" Zhang Wenjing was the first to discover Li Ya and shouted excitedly.

"Zhang Wenjing!" Li Ya also responded quickly.

At this time, Zhang Wenjing, who was out shopping for New Year's goods with her parents, saw Li Ya alone and asked in confusion, "You came alone? Where's your brother?"

Li Ya shrugged slightly and said with a hint of helplessness:

"He was busy buying New Year's goods in the supermarket. He gave me 1,000 yuan and told me to buy whatever I wanted."

As soon as these words came out, a glimmer of envy flashed across Zhang Wenjing's eyes, and she suggested without hesitation:

"Buying clothes! Come on, I'll go shopping with you."

"No, I have clothes to wear."

Li Ya responded hesitantly.

"Hey, just listen to me, you won't go wrong." Zhang Wenjing pulled Li Ya's arm enthusiastically.

I don’t know if it was because she had someone to accompany her, or because the joy of buying clothes is a girl’s nature, but as she continued to choose and try on clothes, Li Ya gradually immersed herself in this happiness.

Time passed by quietly without anyone noticing. On the other side, Li Ping'an had already bought all the New Year's goods in large and small bags. At this moment, he was standing on the side of the road, shivering in the cold wind.

It was not until this moment that he suddenly realized, where is his sister?
I have already bought the New Year’s goods, why hasn’t she come back yet?

I couldn't help but feel a little worried, fearing that something might have happened to my sister.

After hesitating for a long time, he still took out his mobile phone and called his sister.

Soon, the call was connected. "Hello, brother." The clear voice of his sister came from the other end of the phone. Hearing this familiar voice, Li Ping'an's heart suddenly fell to the ground and he felt much more at ease.

"I have bought everything here, how is yours going?" Li Pingan asked.

Li Ya, who was still trying on clothes in the fitting room, was slightly stunned, then reacted and said, "Brother, wait for me, I'm still trying on clothes, I'll be there in a while."

However, Li Ping'an didn't believe what his sister said at all.

After all, as a person who usually takes half an hour to wash his face and brush his teeth, he would not be naive enough to think that the "while" his sister mentioned while trying on clothes was really just a short moment.

Based on his understanding of his sister, this would take at least half an hour.

When Li Ping'an thought about having to stand in the cold wind on the roadside for half an hour, he felt a black screen in front of his eyes and felt helpless.

"Tell me your location and I'll come find you. It's very cold outside." Li Pingan said helplessly.

"That's fine too. I'm in the women's clothing store opposite the school." Li Ya responded.

Not long after, Li Ping'an walked hurriedly into the women's clothing store carrying large and small bags.

As soon as I entered the store, I saw my sister chatting and laughing with a girl of similar age while choosing clothes.

Looking at this situation, Li Pingan guessed that the girl was probably his sister's classmate.

Seeing Li Pingan coming in, Li Ya's eyes lit up instantly, her face was filled with a happy smile, and she shouted loudly:

"Brother, do you think my clothes look good?"

Li Pingan took a closer look and thought the style and color combination of the clothes were pretty good.

However, he knew in his heart that even if he thought it was ugly, he would never really say it out loud.

After all, there is a huge difference between the aesthetic concepts of boys and girls, and looking at the sister's excited look, you can tell that she obviously likes this dress.

Maybe the reason why my sister asked for his opinion at this moment was not because she really wanted to hear an objective evaluation, but just wanted to hear a word of praise from him.

"It's pretty good and suits you very well." Li Ping'an said with a smile.

"Yeah, I think so too."

Li Ya smiled even more brightly when she heard her brother's praise.

Seeing this, Li Pingan turned around and asked the proprietress, "How much is this dress for my sister?"

"399." The proprietress replied.

Li Ping'an nodded slightly. His unintentional action caught the attention of the proprietress, who mistakenly believed that the deal was about to be concluded.

However, the next moment, Li Pingan spoke calmly and directly:
"It's a one-price deal, 300. If you agree, I'll pay. If you don't agree, we'll turn around and leave immediately."

As he spoke, his eyes were calm and firm, staring straight at the proprietress.

The proprietress met Li Ping'an's calm but unquestionable gaze, and immediately understood in her heart that the boy in front of her did not seem to be joking or bragging.

She knew very well that if she hesitated or pulled the trigger a little longer, the customer would probably turn around and leave.

After all, I have been selling clothes for so many years, so I have some ability to observe people's words and expressions.

"Okay! I'll sell it to the beauty at a loss."

The proprietress sighed helplessly and compromised.

PS: It's the end of the month, brothers, please give me a monthly ticket~~~
