Be gentle

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the pharmacy was closed for half a day.But neither Huaran nor Bai Wenxue slept in, and Bai Shuyi got up reluctantly.

"New Year's red envelope, good luck."

During breakfast, Bai Wenxue gave each of them a red envelope, before Huaran could evade it, Bai Shuyi had already accepted it for her.

"Wow, thank you mom, I love you." She stuffed her red envelope into her pocket with one hand, and put the flower-dyed red envelope into her pocket with the other.

Huaran didn't have time to refuse, she opened her mouth and could only thank: "Thank you, Aunt Bai."

Bai Shu didn't realize it, took a sip of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, and asked, "Is this cooked by sister Ran? It's delicious."

I couldn't help last night, and Huaran was actively looking for opportunities to help in the morning.Bai Wenxue didn't refuse her this time, and asked her to make a porridge with preserved egg and lean meat.

"Yeah, your elder sister Ran seems to be very good at cooking, much better than you little thing."

There are probably not many children from poor families who can't cook.

Huaran was embarrassed by the praise, and said repeatedly: "It's not as good as Aunt Bai's."

Bai Shuyi didn't mind being compared at all, and said with a smile, "Well then, I'm lucky. Although I can't cook, I'm good at eating."

The three of them ate breakfast while talking, and Huaran's thoughts drifted back to last night's dream.Like the sequelae of a dream, she now feels a burning sensation in her heart when she sees Bai Shuyi.

"Mom, since you are on vacation in the morning, can I go shopping with sister Ran? I haven't picked out the handkerchief I mentioned before."

"I'm fine, but have you asked Xiao Ran? And is there anyone opening a shop this first day?" In general, Bai Shuyi can be regarded as a considerate and sensible child who is very good at observing words and expressions.It's just that sometimes she can't control so much when she is enthusiastic. Bai Wenxue is always afraid that she will do bad things with good intentions.

As soon as Bai Shu heard the words, he looked at Huaran, and Huaran hurriedly said, "I, I have nothing else to do."

Bai Wenxue looked at her honest and honest look, and for some reason, she felt that this child would always be led by the nose by her own daughter.

"Hahaha, mom, let's go after breakfast. Gu Wan's jewelry store is open, I talked to her earlier."

When Bai Wenxue heard that it was Gu Wan, she no longer worried, "Go ahead, remember to come back early for lunch."

Huaran and Bai Shuyi wore almost identical clothes and went out, walking together like two sisters.

On the first day of the new year, there was really nowhere to go shopping, so Bai Shu always took her to a friend's jewelry store.

It's been a long time since Huaran took a leisurely stroll through the streets, because she has neither money nor time.In addition, during this period of time, I lived and ate at the pharmacy, compared with going shopping together in the restaurant before, the chances of going out were even less.

There are far fewer pedestrians on the street than during general holidays, only the decorations hanging in front of the store reveal a strong Chinese New Year atmosphere.

Bai Shuyi's jewelry store is not big, one and a half storefronts are divided into several areas by four vertical cabinets, where all kinds of doll accessories are neatly placed.

Bai Shu pushed the door open and walked in with ease, and when the electronic "Welcome" sounded, her crisp voice also sounded.

"Wan Wan, Wan Wan are you there?"

The cash register is by the door, but there is no one there.As soon as Huaran came in, she was taken aback by the "Welcome", and then was dazzled by the wide variety of goods inside.

"Here, come, isn't this Xiaobai's husband?" A girl quickly got out of nowhere, and said in a bright and authentic voice, "You said you came today, I thought you would definitely stay in bed until the afternoon Well, I didn't even sleep in."

Bai Shu stomped his feet when he heard this, "Oh, Gu Wan, stop yelling in front of my sister."

Only then did Gu Wan realize that there was a person standing beside Bai Shuyi, who was slightly shorter than Bai Shuyi, with a gentle and beautiful face, as beautiful as a movie star.

The two wore almost identical clothes, and they really looked like a pair of sisters.

"Mr. Xiaobai, we came from the same village. When did you have a sister? Why didn't I know?"

"Oh, I told you not to call me that, you're already a high school student." As soon as Bai Shu was called "husband" twice by Gu Wan, he immediately became anxious and ashamed.

"Then when will you change your name and call me Miss Wanwan back, then I will change your name and not call you husband Xiaobai."

Huaran has been looking at this store, and also the girl named Gu Wan.He was about the same height as himself, with a gentle appearance and a bookish air, but a cheerful and generous personality.

"Stop making trouble, Wanwan. We're in the same class now. I'm so embarrassed to call you sister." Bai Shuyi clearly changed the subject, pulled Huaran over and said to Gu Wan, "Yes, let me introduce my sister to you, Ran My sister is the new helper at my mom's pharmacy."

With a smile, Gu Wan greeted Hua Ran very generously, "Hello, Sister Ran."

"Sister Ran, this is Gu Wan, my childhood friend and classmate."

Compared to the childish Bai Shuyi, Gu Wan has completely shown the demeanor of an adolescent girl.No matter which elder sees it, he can't help but praise it.

"Gu Wan, hello."

Obviously the two girls around her were younger than her, but she was the one who was the least calm and awkward.

"Xiaobai, am I just a student and a classmate? You, a heartless man who has always been chaotic and always abandoned, clearly said that you would marry me."

"Sister Wan Wan, Tong Yan Wuji, it's all happened when I was a child, so please forgive me." Bai Shu grew up on his head, begging for mercy repeatedly.

It was rare for Huaran to see Bai Shuyi being overwhelmed, so she suppressed a smile and watched the two talk.

Gu Wan seems to be somewhat similar to Bai Shuyi in temperament. Although it is only the first time they meet, she doesn't seem to have any sense of distance from Huaran.

"Well, I'm not joking with you. The handkerchief is here, go and see for yourself."

Bai Shu seemed to be pardoned, he dragged Huaran to the back of the cabinet, and said as he walked, "I was really killed by Wanwan."

Without Gu Wan by her side, Huaran finally stopped hiding her smile and asked, "Why did she hurt you?"

Bai Shuyi obviously knew the classification and arrangement of the jewelry store very well, and found the place to put the handkerchief familiarly.

"It's just her. After entering high school, she called me 'Xiaobai Husband' the first time in the class. In the end, this became my nickname. Not only girls, but boys also call me that."

Friendship between girls is a wonderful thing, especially adolescent girls.In Huaran's impression, in junior high school and high school, it was prevalent in the class to recognize relatives, husbands, wives, aunts, and mothers, and a variety of relationship networks. Only when you enter it means that you have a good relationship.

But Bai Shuyi obviously didn't look like this, Huaran was a little curious and asked, "Why did she call you that?"

"Well, we are from the same village. She might have to call me auntie in terms of relationship. When I was young, my mother didn't have time to take me with me, so she put me at Wan Wan's house. We probably didn't know what to do when we played house. It’s called that, I don’t remember much.”

I don't know if it's because of the previous dream, but Huaran felt closer to Bai Shuyi. Seeing her cute pouting appearance, she couldn't help but tease: "It seems that she is really a little heartbreaker." gone."

"Where is it, sister Ran, you laugh at me too."

The two were picking out handkerchiefs while they were talking, Gu Wan probably had finished entertaining other guests, and at this moment came to the two of them.

"How about it, did you pick one you like?"

Bai Shu read seven or eight articles in a row but didn't pick one he liked. When Gu Wan came over, he couldn't help complaining, "Wanwan, didn't I tell you to have that kind of embroidery, I want... um, something more elegant, this They are all too colorful."

"It's a little more elegant. The one that suits you best is Chibi Maruko," Gu Wan casually picked out a few and put them in front of her, "Okay, here are the ones with embroidery. Take a look, my mother said it was hers." It was hard to pick out."

Bai Shu frowned, apparently still dissatisfied.

"It's not good-looking, it's too vulgar. I want to dye sister's kind, with small bamboo embroidered on the corners, and names can be embroidered."

"You're not buying a handkerchief, I think you're just embarrassing me, Gu Wan." Gu Wan patted Bai Shuyi's head, "There's no such handkerchief, why don't you buy one and go back and embroider it yourself."

Only then did Huaran know the reason why Bai Shuyi didn't buy back the handkerchief before, and came to pick it up again today.

"Xiaobai, I embroidered that one myself, there should be no similar ones."

"Ah, so that's the case?" Bai Shu threw the handkerchief away, feeling discouraged, "No wonder I haven't been able to find it."

Huaran is a girl who lives with her grandfather, chopping firewood for cooking, washing and mending clothes is of course not a problem.There is an embroidering mother-in-law in the village. After school, her greatest interest is to learn a little embroidery from that mother-in-law.

When others were still doing cross-stitch, she was already able to embroider patterns on clothes.

"Xiaobai, let me embroider one for you. Tell me what style you like."

Although Huaran never thinks that her craftsmanship is good, she is very happy that Bai Shuyi likes it so much.

"Ah! Really? Great, great, then I'll pick a color I like."

Bai Shuyi didn't know to push it back at all, and looked delighted.

After hearing what the two said, Gu Wan was also a little curious, "Sister Ran, do you know how to embroider? Can you show me?"

"Uh... I'm actually not good at embroidery."

It's fine for Bai Shu to see it, but it's a bit embarrassing to show Hana Ran to others.

"Oh, Wanwan, go ahead and don't disturb us picking out handkerchiefs."

Bai Shuyi also looked like he was protecting the calf, pushing Gu Wan out.

"Tsk, Xiaobai, you are a playboy, you really don't want your old sister when you have a new sister."
