Chapter 153: My Deskmate is as Soft as a Jade Flower (Part 42)
Zuo Li: "Mom, Mrs. Xue, are you back from shopping? So early?"
"My dear daughter, you must be hungry. The eight-treasure porridge in the pot is still hot. Come and eat it. Lanlan and I just went to the mall yesterday, and today we are going to buy a few things we forgot to buy." Xu Ru touched her daughter's hair and straightened her bangs.
Xue Lanlan took out a beautiful red winter dress and showed it to Zuo Li.
"Look, isn't it festive? Isn't it beautiful? I fell in love with it the moment I entered the mall! I bought it for you yesterday and brought it over today. It also comes with a whole range of matching items, including socks, shoes, and hair accessories!"
Zuo Li: "Wow, what a beautiful dress!"
Zuo Li took the skirt and touched the bow at the waist. It was a red long skirt that could be worn alone with a white plush vest on the outside.
The hem of the long skirt has three layers. The innermost layer is velvet. The third layer of red fabric is slanted on the right, revealing the second layer of white fabric inside. It feels very smooth. The outer red hem is slightly shorter than the white one, revealing the white pleated hem inside.
The red top has delicate embroidered buttons and a fluffy circle at the neck.
The white vest also has delicate light gold embroidery.
Xue Lanlan had indeed put together a complete outfit. The outer coat was a white square-necked jacket, and the fluffy cuffs felt warm to the touch.
The hair accessories are two identical clips: two white fluffy balls on the left and right sides, and a small red cherry in the middle.
The shoes are white velvet boots and a pair of white leg socks.
Xue Lanlan even prepared the low-necked thermal underwear.
Zuo Li: "Thank you, Mom Xue! I love it! I'm going to wear this dress for Chinese New Year!"
"I'm glad you like it. Let's go eat."
Xue Lanlan hugged Zuo Li and smiled as she asked her to go eat.
Xu Ru had already served the porridge and placed it on the table. When she heard her daughter's words, she snorted.
"I even bought you some clothes, but you haven't even seen them. What if you like them more?"
"Hahahaha, Ruru, the one I bought is so bright and beautiful! Yours is too ordinary!"
Xu Ru was not convinced and quickly took out the set she had bought.
The white shirt and black skirt are some cute combinations that look both elegant and playful. The coat is a beige short coat with delicate pearl buttons. There is a red heart on the collar, and a small beige bag of the same fabric is hung on the coat.
She wore a pair of black leather shoes and the same fleece socks as Xue's mother, but they were beige.
Zuo Li drank the porridge and comforted her mother, saying that she would wear one set of clothes on the first day of the New Year and change into another set on the second day.
Xu Ru was satisfied and talked to Xue Lanlan about what else to buy for the New Year this year.
Zuo Li's grandparents lived in the countryside in the next city. On the 28th day of the 12th lunar month, Zuo Qiao brought his parents over to celebrate the Lunar New Year. After the Lunar New Year, Zuo Li and her family would return to the countryside. As the elderly grew older, they loved staying in the countryside.
Zuo Li's grandparents are both from Licheng, but in recent years, Zuo Li's uncle bought a house in the neighboring province, and her aunt just gave birth to her second child. They are too busy with their business, so her grandparents went to help take care of the child.
Zuo Li hasn't seen her grandparents for two years, but they are somewhat patriarchal and prefer Zuo Li's uncle, not to mention that Zuo Li is a girl.
In her previous life, Zuo Li's parents passed away and they didn't care much about her, but they still gave her 10,000 yuan as living expenses from the age of sixteen to eighteen.
Zuo Li's grandparents wanted her to return to the countryside so they could take care of her, but she was about to take the college entrance exam, so returning to the countryside was out of the question. After the exam, she went to college and only went home once a year, which meant she had fewer opportunities to see her grandparents.
Zuo Li: "Grandpa and grandma, you are finally here!"
"Haha, little Li is getting prettier and prettier." Grandpa Zuo stood at the door, put on the new slippers Zuo Li handed him, and praised the slippers for being warm.
"Xiao Li, you've grown taller again! You're even taller than your mother!" Grandma Zuo put on new slippers, washed her hands, peeled an orange and fed two slices to Zuo Li.
