Chapter 880: The Mother Who Never Spoils the Fun

But before she could walk out the door, Xiaoke ran in like a whirlwind.

It’s just that his running posture was a little strange, with his hands behind his back, and it was obvious that he was hiding something in his hands.

Mei pretended not to see it, thinking that her daughter had bought some meat buns.

A few days ago, the little girl asked her intentionally or unintentionally what she wanted to eat recently, and Mei knew that she wanted to buy her a birthday present.

So she thought about it and told the little girl what she liked to eat - meat buns.

Meat buns are not expensive compared to other gifts, and they can be shared.

"Mother, mother, close your eyes!"

Xiao Ke was so happy when she thought about the gifts she bought for her mother. She really wanted to see her mother opening the gifts.

After hearing what her daughter said, Mei closed her eyes obediently.

"Alright, mother, please open your eyes!"

Xiaoke held the two things in his hands in front of his mother and asked her to open her eyes.

Mei slowly opened her eyes, but instead of seeing the steamed buns she had imagined, she saw an exquisite colorful paper bag and a small dessert that looked sweet and soft!

"Wow! Thanks, babe!"

Mei hugged her daughter with surprise on her face. These things looked carefully prepared. It was really hard for the child. I wonder how long she had saved the money.

"Mom, please open it and see what's inside."

Xiaoke felt sweet in her heart because she had a mother who never spoiled her fun.

Xiao Ai from next door once told me that no matter what gifts she prepared for her parents, no matter if they were flowers she picked from the roadside or small gifts she bought with the money she saved from selling dried goods, her parents would only accuse her of wasting money and that she would be better off doing more work at home.

But her mother is different. No matter what she does, her mother will first encourage and affirm her.

"Okay, wipe the sweat off your face first, then come and take a look with mother."

Mei gave Xiaoke the prepared washcloth to wipe her face clean, and then they both sat down at the table.

"Mom, open this first!"

Xiaoke first pushed the beautiful gift bag in front of her mother.

Mei undid the bow and opened the bag, and what came into view was a pair of small but exquisite silver ornaments.

One is crescent-shaped and the other is star-shaped.

Maybe some jewelry shop used some leftover silver to make some pretty little toys for children to play with.

This is what Mei thought.

But when she took out the pair of silver ornaments, she found that there was a thin short stick stuck behind the moon and stars!

"Is this... an earring?"

Mei saw that there was a simple ear painted on the small bag, and a star pattern painted on the earlobe, so she had a rough guess.

But all she knew about were earrings. She had never seen this style before, and it was such a beautiful style.

"Yes! Mother, let me put it on for you!

When Xiao Ke makes a lot of money, I will buy bigger earrings for Mom!"

After Xiaoke finished speaking, she took the earrings from Mei's hand, pulled out the earplugs at the back, and put them on her mother's ears.

Women in ancient times all had pierced ears. My mother originally had a pair of silver earrings on her ears. They were one of the few valuable things in the family. Later, after my father passed away, my mother sold the earrings.

"Mom, look at it! It's so beautiful~"

Xiaoke took a palm-sized mirror and handed it to his mother.

Mei took the small mirror and turned her head left and right, looking at the shiny silver earrings, her heart filled with emotion and joy.

"Mom, there's another gift here~"

Xiaoke pushed the paper bag again. Hehe, watching his mother unwrapping the gifts was more exciting than when he bought the gifts himself!

"Okay, okay, Mom will take it down."

Mei directly took out the remaining two things in the bag, but she couldn't understand these two things even more.

One is long and thin like a chopstick, and the other is short and thin, I don’t know what it looks like. You can’t tell what’s inside from the outer packaging.

“This is an eyebrow pencil~

You see, just pull the lid and twist it from the bottom, and it will come out every time.

And this is lip balm, which can be used in the same way."

Xiaoke carefully opened the lids of the eyebrow pencil and lipstick and covered them up as if they were treasures.

Mei's expression changed from eyes wide open to mouth wide open in disbelief.

"Xiao, Xiaoke, how much are these?"

Mei was a little scared. These things looked very expensive. Could her daughter have been deceived into borrowing money?

"Don't worry, mother. These are only a hundred coins. And I got this eyebrow pencil for free when I won a prize for the new store opening."

Xiao Ke patted his chest and held his head high, telling his mother how lucky he was today.
