Reborn in 1990: My Family Store Leads to the Future
Chapter 155 Purchasing Goods
Li Huan had discussed Lu Yuan's upcoming visit with her mother, and unusually, she got up early this morning to wait for him.
When Li Huan saw Lu Yuan, he was shocked by the small mountain on the tricycle behind him.
The small tricycle was loaded with things: a box of bright red apples, a box of wine, and a classic cream cake.
Besides these, there are also some canned fruits, as well as other items that Lu Yuan sells in the store, including peanuts, melon seeds, and chocolates.
Of course, these are all brand-name products, and none of them are cheap.
Keep in mind that this is the 1980s and 90s, and a box of tea costing over a hundred yuan was already considered extremely expensive.
If you bring a case of wine worth over a hundred yuan when visiting relatives during holidays, that's considered very high-class.
And these are just the tip of the iceberg; there are even more chicken, duck, fish and meat dishes that are so dazzling that it's hard to look away.
Li Huan rubbed his face and said with a helpless expression.
"This is the first time I've ever seen someone bring gifts like they're delivering them. Tell me honestly, how many families are you planning to visit today? It's a long way."
"This is to make up for the last time I came without bringing a gift."
Speaking of this, Lu Yuan smiled helplessly. He had only planned to bring some things from the store, but who would have thought that Ms. Wang Xiuying would be so helpful and bring him so many treasures.
Of course, Ms. Wang Xiuying had prepared some chicken, duck, fruit, canned goods, and the like. Since it was far away, she went to buy some other things before coming over.
The contents of this truck bed would cost at least a thousand yuan.
"Thank goodness you came, otherwise I wouldn't know how to carry it upstairs."
After Lu Yuan finished speaking, he gave a helpless smile.
"Don't even think about it!"
Li Huan took a step back, a look of fear on his face.
"I dressed up beautifully to welcome you, how could I do such a thing!"
"real?"
"real!"
As Li Huan spoke, he took the things from Lu Yuan's hands and followed Lu Yuan to the door. He instinctively wanted to knock on the door.
Unexpectedly, Li Huan suddenly revealed a mischievous smile, stopped his hand, pointed downstairs, and whispered something in his ear.
Lu Yuan looked at her with a doting expression and didn't say anything more. He followed her for several days, carrying all the things from the car upstairs, including various gifts, milk powder, chicken, duck, fish and other things, filling the corridor to the brim.
Boom boom boom!
After doing all that, Lu Yuan knocked on the door again.
"Xiao Lu is here!"
Inside the room, Tian Jingxian was busy in the kitchen.
Ever since she heard that Lu Yuan was coming, she started preparing early in the morning. To her surprise, her daughter, unusually, didn't stay up late and actually went out early in the morning.
She put down the groceries, wiped her hands, and opened the door.
The door opened, and Lu Yuan and Li Huan were standing in the doorway.
"Hello, Aunt Tian!"
Lu Yuan said with a smile, carrying a cream cake in one hand and several cans of fruit in the other.
Tian Jingxian smiled slightly and then spoke.
"Why did you bring anything with you?"
Before she could finish speaking, she noticed the hallway was filled with gifts and was immediately startled, exclaiming in surprise.
"My God, how much stuff did you bring?"
"I accidentally bought too much, Auntie. Don't worry, it's not a lot, it just looks like a lot."
Lu Yuan had been here once before, and he placed the cream cake on the table with practiced ease.
Then I started moving.
Tian Jingxian looked at her daughter, who was carrying a large stack of snacks, and sighed helplessly.
"You silly girl, why didn't you stop her? Xiao Lu must have spent a lot of money on all this stuff."
"That has nothing to do with me."
Li Huan quickly shook his head and explained.
Who knew that Tian Jingxian completely ignored him and instead looked at the four chickens, four ducks, and a few fish that Lu Yuan had brought in.
"Buying so much meat, it'll all go bad if we can't finish it."
She peeked out of the hallway and looked at the things in the room: "This is shampoo and soap... Who buys these things by the case? Why are you wasting so much money?"
"I forgot to bring anything last time, so I brought you extra this time. Don't worry, you'll finish these things in a few days."
Lu Yuan smiled as he placed the things in the kitchen, saying as he carried them.
Tian Jingxian had no choice but to put down what she was doing and let the two of them move all the things in first, and she didn't forget to say something.
"There are so many chickens and ducks that the refrigerator simply can't hold them all. If we don't finish them, they'll spoil the next day."
"We just need to get another freezer."
Li Huan blinked and said.
"Didn't I say I wanted to get a tub of ice cream? Now's the perfect time!"
"Stop talking nonsense and get to work."
Tian Jingxian said in an annoyed tone.
Li Huan glanced at the gifts that were still mostly missing and couldn't help but sigh.
"How come there are still so many?"
"I told you not to keep a close eye on things. It's not the season, why are you taking so many things?"
Tian Jingxian asked with a smile.
After a couple gets engaged, it's customary for the man to bring many gifts when he first visits the woman's home.
However, it is generally rare for ordinary families to have these things.
Tian Jingxian looked at the wine and tea leaves, and shook her head slightly.
"Please take these tea leaves and wine back. I don't drink much, and we have plenty of tea at home. It's a waste for you to leave them here. You might as well take them back and drink them yourself."
"And this wine, it must be expensive."
"Let's talk about it this afternoon."
Lu Yuan chuckled but didn't reply.
Tian Jingxian didn't waste any words and asked him to sit on the sofa.
Before Lu Yuan arrived, Li Huan looked forward to his arrival, but when he actually came, Li Huan became a little timid.
Using the excuse of packing up, I quietly left and then hid to the side, carefully listening to the two people talking.
"Li Huan told me that you just helped the police station solve a fraud case yesterday?"
Li Huan's father was also a policeman. He died protecting a child during an arrest of a criminal.
Tian Jingxian raised Li Huan on her own, which resulted in Li Huan's personality being quite different from that of ordinary girls.
Most of the time, he acts like a crazy child.
Tian Jingxian was surprised by Lu Yuan's behavior and was also a little worried that he might encounter something bad.
Lu Yuan didn't necessarily deny it, but smiled and nodded.
"This was all an accident. A friend really did take me there. I never expected the other person to be a conman. After I saw through him, he even tried to attack me..."
After listening to him speak, Tian Jingxian suddenly asked a question.
"Is this friend you're talking about Qi Qiang?"
