Chapter 1913: Daddy is such a miser!
After Little Yichen announced this to his family, he fished out four movie tickets from his wallet as if performing a magic trick .
His mother took a closer look at the tickets and was stunned on the spot when she realized that they were for her maiden show, ‘The Green Apple’ .
“…”
“Son, really, how many tickets did you buy?”
“There are too many to count . Mommy, haven’t I told you before? Everyone will have a chance to catch this show on my account!” The boy threw a sidelong glance at his mother .
“How generous of you!” His mother was taken aback by his extravagance .
The family agreed to catch this show together .
While they were on their way to the theater, Yun Shishi started to feel cold . She did not bring an extra coat to keep warm when she left the house earlier, so as night fell, the drastically dropping temperature sent her teeth chattering .
Her husband saw her struggle even though she did not say a word and drove them to a fashion boutique for some warm outerwear .
As the family of four stepped into the store, everyone gazed at them in surprise .
OMG! The man is so suave and handsome, while the lady is gorgeous beyond words . Besides them, the twins came across as two bright and adorable, mixed-blood . This sight made the onlookers brim with envy .
Mu Yazhe ignored the stunned and envious looks around them as he busied himself with the task at hand: Getting his wife to pick and try on a coat . The whole affair was executed effortlessly under his supervision . He made the payment a few minutes later and they were out of the shop with her in a brand-new coat . The man was very satisfied with his purchase as they walked out while holding hands .
The woman was rendered speechless .
Standing at one side, Yichen gave his evaluation . “Daddy has good taste, indeed! This coat looks good on mommy . She looks snug and pretty in it!”
His father merely retorted dryly, “Stop currying favor . ”
“…”
His father knew him well .
How did daddy know what I was trying to do?
Indeed, his allowance had nearly been depleted by his bulk purchase of movie tickets for the rest to enjoy . With his dwindling pocket money, he reckoned that he could get his father to give him more through flattery .
“Have you used up all your allowance?” His younger brother sniggered at him .
Youyou could tell that his twin wanted to get their mother a coat when he saw her trembling in the cold wind .
The older boy had the intention to pay for the coat, which his father had picked; alas, his wallet had nothing more than a few small notes in it . Thus, he could only stare at the coat with a whooping five-digit price tag in misery .
He wanted so much to show his gallantry to his mother .
Sigh…
Instead, it was his father who got to show off .
“Almost all the pocket money daddy gave has already been spent . ”
In fact, the boy would receive a few hundreds of thousands of yuan from his father as pocket money every month since he was six . Most of it was set aside for investment, while the rest was recently spent on movie tickets to support his mother’s acting career .
In fact, he had run out of ideas on how to survive this month with the meager sum left in his wallet .
His father was unmoved . “I have already passed you the pocket money for
this month . You’ll have to wait for next month to get another . ”
The boy looked crestfallen after that .
Concerned, his mother asked, “Son, have you truly spent all your allowance?”
“Yes…” The boy nodded his head eagerly as he looked at her with anticipation .
Just as he expected, she reached out for her wallet and told him, “Don’t worry . Mommy will pass you some pocket money, instead . Hmph . Your father is such a miser!”
“That’s right! Mommy is the best!” exclaimed the lad smilingly as he shot his father a condescending look as saying to the man, You’re so stingy!
