Sixty-year-old only child: The system taught me how to become rich

Although this is a special period, people are not allowed to wear clothes that are too gorgeous or too brightly colored.

But her requirements for her children are still smaller. Gigi will dress Gu Ning in clothes that are not so brightly colored but have better-looking styles, and will try her best to match them with her.

The most important thing is that Gu Ning's clothes fit perfectly.

These made her look even more conspicuous.

Nowadays, under the planned economy, the few cloth coupons given to each person every year are not enough to make a pair of trousers. Nowadays, families generally have more children, and there is even more shortage of fabrics.

Children grow up very quickly, and clothes will no longer fit after they are made. In order to make better use of fabrics, adults will make clothes for children longer, which will not fit them at all.

And basically they are the leftovers from the smaller ones that fit into the larger ones, or their parents’ clothes that are altered into smaller ones.

Most of the clothes worn by children on the street are old, and most of them are incomplete. It is common to have two patches on them.

This is not bad. In some poor families, the children in the family may only have one dress like this, and they have to wear the same dress every day.

If it is washed but not dried the next day, then there will be no clothes to wear the next day and you will not even be able to leave the door.

Other than that, Gu Ning's body was very clean and neatly tidied up. Children in government agencies are fine. If you go to the houses near factories, few of them are clean.

There is no way, there are too many children at home, and the adults simply don’t have the energy to take care of them. It would be great if you can tidy up the house and prepare meals every day.

Moreover, many children do not take a bath once a day in summer, and their clothes can be worn for several days before being washed once.

It’s not that they don’t want to be clean, they really have no choice.

It’s all the fault of poverty! ! !

As mentioned before, clothes are very valuable. But once clothes are washed, they will wear out. The more clothes are washed, the faster they deteriorate. So in order to save clothes, as long as the clothes look good and are not dirty, everyone tries not to wash them.

As for bathing, you can only use hot water in winter. Hot water costs firewood and coal, and they are reluctant to spend so much money.

You can take a cold shower in summer, but if you take too many showers, you will easily catch a cold, and it will cost you money to buy medicine when you get sick.

So it is not easy to keep it clean.

Aunt Li has long been used to seeing children like Gu Ning, so she can tell at a glance that her family is in good condition and her parents must love her very much.

But Aunt Li is not surprised, she has heard about it for a long time.

Basically everyone in the government agencies knows that Gigi Lai only gave birth to one daughter, and she plans not to have any more children in the future. Therefore, Gu Ning was the only daughter of the couple, so she was naturally very favored at home.

Gu Xian and Gigi Lai's positions are both low, with high salaries and good benefits. Naturally, the living conditions at home are relatively good.

Gu Ning has been good-looking since she was a child. When Li Zi takes her out, she always hears compliments.

Although she was used to hearing this, Gigi Lai was still very happy.

Who doesn’t like others to praise their children?

What's more, a large part of the reason why Gu Ning is so good-looking is that she is well-raised. Isn't it a disguised way of praising herself?

Although I agree with this in my heart, I still have to be modest and humble in my mouth. Gigi Lai said with a smile:

"No, no, no, ma'am, you are so complimentary."

After speaking, she looked at Gu Ning and said:

"Ning Ning, Grandma Li praised you, why don't you say thank you quickly."

After hearing her mother's words, Gu Ning smiled at Aunt Li and thanked her sweetly:

"Thank you, Grandma Li. Grandma Li, you are also very beautiful. You look very gentle and kind. I like you so much."

Who doesn't like to be praised?

Even Aunt Li is no exception.

Praise from a child always feels sincere, after all, children cannot lie.

The smile on Aunt Li's face suddenly brightened, and she said with a smile:

"Oh, why is this kid so sweet-mouthed!"

Gu Ning shook her head seriously and said:

"No way? Grandma Li, what I said is obviously the truth. Those who lie are not good children, and I don't like those who lie."

Now Aunt Li was laughing so hard that she couldn't even see her eyes.

She smiled and said to Gigi Gigi:

"Oh, Director Li, why is this baby of yours so annoying?"

Don't blame Aunt Li for being too exaggerated. People in this era are generally more reserved and rarely express such compliments directly.

What's more, this compliment came from a smart and beautiful kid like Gu Ning. Who else would be unhappy?

Gigi Gigi smiled and said:

"No. Our Ningning also said it, it's just the truth."

Aunt Li was very happy and wanted to give something as a gift when she was happy.

She is in the cafeteria now, and the things she can give are of course related to food.

"Director Li, and Ning Ning, please wait while I find something."

Aunt Li warned. After saying that, he went to the bottom of the cabinet next to him and found a bag of something--it was a small bag of sugar.

She handed over the sugar and said:

"Come on, come on, the tofu puffs you bought don't have any sugar. I happen to have a pack of white sugar here. Sprinkle it into the tofu puffs. It will taste much better."

There is a shortage of supplies now. Although Gigi Lai usually does not lack these things, she also understands that sugar is very valuable in the eyes of people nowadays. She quickly waved her hand and refused:

"No, ma'am, this is too expensive. You can keep something as precious as sugar for yourself."

Aunt Li was unhappy and said:

"Oh, Director Li, I'm not giving this to you, I'm giving it to Ning Ning. I like this kid, so what's wrong with giving her a small bag of sugar? Don't be so polite. A little sugar isn't worth much."

The words are all about this, and they are for children. If it was given to herself, Gigi Lai would definitely not accept it.

I looked at the small bag of sugar and saw that it wasn't a lot. Aunt Li works in the kitchen, and she usually gets a lot of work. This is tacitly understood by everyone.

She probably got this small packet of sugar from the kitchen, and she was indeed not in short supply of it.

After thinking about it, Gigi Lai took the small bag of sugar from Aunt Li's hand and said:

"Okay, you're welcome then. Thank you, ma'am."

After saying that, she looked at Gu Ning again and said:

"Ning Ning, Grandma Li gave you sugar, what do you want to say?"

Gu Ning understood immediately. She looked up at Aunt Li and thanked her with a smile:

"Thank you Grandma Li for the sugar."

Grandma Li smiled and waved her hand and said:

"It's okay, it's okay, you taste good."

After speaking, she glanced outside and said:

"Okay, now there are more and more people. I have to continue working. Director Li, Ning Ning, you can go have breakfast."

After Gigi Gigi and Gu Ning said goodbye with a smile, they left the window where Aunt Li was responsible.
