She was at least an aunt after all, and Ye Qinghua had often helped her with meals and medicine when she was unwell. Besides, it wasn’t expensive, so she took it home to cheer up the children.
She had thought about going to the Jewelry Shop across the street to buy something better, but she was afraid of startling her family.
Anyway, there was plenty of time ahead of her, and she had to let her money trickle out slowly.
Ye Jiu paid the money, and Old Man Ye just thought his daughter had grown up and knew how to appreciate beauty, and since the family was no longer short of cash and the business had flourished thanks to her, he didn’t make any comment.
Since they hadn’t brought any baskets, the bead flower had to be kept in her pocket.
Ye Jiu, holding on to Old Man Ye, wandered down the street, her gaze not missing a single shop on either side.
She found it—her eyes lit up—the fabric store should have ready-made clothes for sale.
“Dad, mom loves pastries. Why don’t you go buy some and we can take them back to make her happy,” Ye Jiu coaxed, holding Old Man Ye’s hand.
Old Man Ye hardly hesitated, “Sure thing, since we’ve got nothing else on, let’s the two of us take a stroll.”
Ye Jiu’s smile stiffened for a moment, “Dad, I’m tired. You go ahead, I’ll just wait here for you to come back. I won’t run off.”
“That won’t do, leaving you, a girl, here by yourself. What if you get snatched away again—how would that be alright!” The thought of Ye Jiu being lost for so long still scared Old Man Ye.
He dared not leave his child alone, lest she be lost again, which would not only break his heart but his wife couldn’t bear such a blow either.
He hadn’t forgotten the frenzied look on his wife’s face when the child was missing, as if she wanted to grind the Li family to death; it was frightening to see.
“Dad, I promise I won’t run off. Isn’t there a fabric store up ahead? I’ll just wait for you inside there. Just go and come back quickly,” said Ye Jiu.
Now that was the only option, Old Man Ye was feeling some regret. If only he had known, he would have brought one of his grandsons along to help keep an eye on his daughter.
“Then you promise, stay inside the store and don’t run off anywhere. Your dad will be back in no time,” Old Man Ye said uneasily, warning her.
“I know, Dad. Hurry up, or the Clan Leader will start worrying if we’re late.” Knowing he had no money, Ye Jiu casually handed a piece of silver to Old Man Ye.
Old Man Ye walked away with a heavy heart, blaming his wife a bit for being impractical.
He was an adult after all, and she had given the money to their daughter, leaving none for him.
It made him feel quite embarrassed that he, an adult, had to depend on his daughter for money to buy something.
After Old Man Ye’s figure had completely disappeared, Ye Jiu hurried into the fabric store.
Wangshan Village was situated in the middle of the county and town, which were not too far apart. Surrounded by high mountains, they rarely came to the county despite being farmers, preferring the more modest town, which felt more comfortable.
However, it was quite clear that the county was indeed much more prosperous than the town.
Even this fabric store was obviously different.
The moment Ye Jiu entered, she was dazzled by the beautiful clothes inside.
In her time in the modern era, she had a special fondness for the ancient costumes on TV, but she couldn’t afford them.
Although the ancient costumes in the fabric store were not as varied or as grand as those on TV, and indeed were much simpler, they were infinitely better than the almost whitewashed plain cloth she wore.
