Bringing the baby back to China, the cold CEO becomes a fishing husband

Chapter 88 An An: I like colorful cotton-padded jackets

At 7:20, everyone gathered in the yard. The host Wang Liang adhered to his professionalism and tried to keep his eyes wide open, because he was not used to getting up early in such a cold day.

After yawning, he wiped his face to get rid of the sleepiness, and explained the tasks and rules with a smile on his face.

"We are now leaving for the morning market, which is about ten minutes away by car. Please find the breakfast on your card and clock in before nine o'clock, and your mission will be completed."

"Each family has three cards. Please confirm whether you have brought them. If they are missing, there is nothing you can do. Successfully checking in counts as three points. If all of them are successful, you can get nine points. I wish you all the best."

The morning market starts at around five in the morning, and the stalls will be closed down after ten o'clock.

When Xiang Siyuan and his friends arrived, it was the busiest time period.

From a distance, everyone could see the morning market bustling with people and filled with smoke, and the aroma of food became more and more pronounced as they got closer.

The four groups decided to search separately.

The three breakfasts that An An and Xiang Siyuan need to check in are: tofu pudding, mutton offal soup and egg burger.

This is not An An’s first time to go to the vegetable market, but it is his first time to go to the morning market, and it is a specialty morning market in Northeast China.

Along the way, An An opened his eyes wide and looked left and right.

He saw a truck full of cabbages, chickens and ducks that could cluck and jump on the ground, and a variety of fruits, cakes, and steaming buns on the shelves of the stalls. Walking a little further, he even saw popsicles placed directly on the floor. All of this made him feel so novel and interesting.

Along the way, An An would ask Xiang Siyuan about everything he saw, calling "Dad, Dad" all the time, and Xiang Siyuan would patiently explain.

Although some of them were the first time he had seen them, the name and price of the food were listed behind each vegetable, so it was not a difficult task for Xiang Siyuan.

An An was wearing a pair of boots provided by the program team. They were ankle-length and the black and gray color matched her gray pants perfectly. The long blue and white down jacket covered An An's knees.

Li Yin bought a size larger down jacket, so the sleeves were a bit long for An An, so Xiang Siyuan folded them in half to reveal the light blue Doraemon gloves. The down hat on his head was also blue, and the brim of the hat covered his two little ears, so that An An didn't hear clearly when Xiang Siyuan and An An talked at first.

So he raised his gloved hands, lifted the brim of his hat next to his ears, blinked his watery eyes and asked Xiang Siyuan,

"Dad, what are you talking about? I didn't hear you just now."

Xiang Siyuan couldn't help but smile when he saw An An's appearance, with love in his eyes that couldn't be hidden.

"Is An An cold?"

The current temperature is minus five degrees Celsius. An An's fair face has become even whiter due to the cold, but his nose has turned red due to the cold. Xiang Siyuan is considering whether to buy him a mask.

An An shook his head and pulled his father forward. He felt everything was new and not cold at all.

Many stall owners on the road saw Xiang Siyuan and An An, and they all looked at this handsome father and son with a sidelong glance. Some stall owners said directly,

"This baby is so handsome."

Some even picked up an apple from the stall and handed it to An An.

"Baby, take it and eat it."

An An looked up at his father and waited for his instructions. Xiang Siyuan and the old man refused at first, but the old man enthusiastically stuffed the thing into An An's arms and said bluntly that it was not worth much.

It was not easy to refuse the old man's kindness at this point, so Xiang Siyuan asked An An to accept the apples, thinking that he would come back to buy another bag when he had extra money.

Xiang Siyuan and An An first saw an egg burger on the road, and considering that they had two other things to eat later, and the portions in the north were very large, he bought an egg burger and he and An An shared it.

As they walked, they came to an area that specialized in selling clothes.

An An's eyes lit up as if she saw something, and she pulled Xiang Siyuan to a stall.

Looking at the colorful cotton-padded jackets on the stall and the lady wearing the same cotton-padded jacket, Xiang Siyuan looked at An An in confusion, while An An smiled widely and looked at his father.

"Dad, the pattern of this dress is exactly the same as the quilt we cover ourselves with."

An An likes the colorful pattern very much. He thinks the colors are very beautiful. If his father could buy him this piece of clothing, he would not only have a quilt to cover himself with, but also clothes to wear.

The old lady's eyes lit up when she saw the handsome father and son.

"Brother, judging from your accent, you are from the south, right? You may not have worn our coats, but they are very warm. Look at me, an old lady, standing here all morning in this coat, and I don't feel cold at all. Why don't you buy one? It's not expensive."

As she spoke, the old lady found the child's size from a pile of clothes and compared it with An An.

"Look, it fits so well, the size is right, the color is right. This baby is white and tender, just like a New Year picture, wearing colorful clothes looks so beautiful, this is how you should dress during the New Year, it's festive. You should also wear one, you are handsome, and it will look good on you!"

An An looked at his father with some anticipation, meaning that he really wanted to buy one.

Xiang Siyuan didn't plan to get one for himself. He simply couldn't imagine what the clothes would look like on him, but he was willing to let An An try it.

But Xiang Siyuan immediately considered that he had little money in his pocket and he needed it to complete the task, so he asked the boss the price of the clothes first.

"The big one is 75 yuan, and the small one is 50 yuan. If you want both sizes, I'll give you a discount of 120 yuan for both. Hey, I have some pants here, do you want them?"

The old lady was very enthusiastic and was about to take out her pants while speaking.

Xiang Siyuan hurriedly stopped him.

"Auntie, I'm sorry. You saw us filming the show. I'm doing a task right now and I don't have any money. Let's come back later."

The old lady also looked at the camera and found it very novel. She also thought it was nothing to ask, so she said enthusiastically,

"Sure, sure, go ahead and ask. This is the first time in my life that I can appear on TV."

Then the old lady asked them what the show was, which channel it was broadcast on, and whether Xiang Siyuan was an actor or a singer, and why they had never seen him before.

Xiang Siyuan politely replied to the old lady, turned around and half squatted down, and discussed with An An. They decided to complete the task of the program team first, and then see how much money was left before buying clothes.

"Dad, the money we put down is not enough to buy clothes, what should we do?"

He had heard what the grandmother said, and he remembered his piggy bank. The money in his piggy bank was not enough to buy a piece of clothing.

Xiang Siyuan touched An An's head.

"Then we'll think of other ways then."

An An hesitated and nodded.

So Xiang Siyuan took him to say goodbye to the old lady. An An walked away looking back a little reluctantly, which made the old lady want to give him one, but clothes were not like food, so the old lady felt a little distressed to give one away.

-

After Xiang Siyuan and his friends finished their mutton soup and tofu pudding, they came to the stall again as planned.

Xiang Siyuan counted the money in his pocket. Thirty yuan was not enough to buy An An a piece of clothing, and he also planned to keep ten yuan to buy the old man's apples.

But seeing his son's eager and expectant eyes, Xiang Siyuan turned to the old lady and said,

"Auntie, I still have twenty in my hand. How about I help you sell five pieces of clothing? How about you give me a discount on the children's clothes?"
