"Because there was a drought at that time, my father and mother didn't have any savings. Grandpa's illness lasted for a long time, and the minor illness turned into a serious illness, and he finally passed away."
When Bai Jingshan said this, he paused for a moment, sighed softly, and then continued towards Ye Qiqi: "Miss Xiaoqi may think that what I say is unpleasant, but life is like this. At your age now You are still young and have not experienced this yet. When you experience this, you will understand the intention of what I just said."
“…”
Ye Qiqi looked at Bai Jingshan and felt like he was holding a breath in his heart, but he couldn't let it out.
This person did give a kind reminder, but I don't know why, but hearing this kind reminder made me feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
"I just saw Miss Xiao Qi buying some rouge and gouache." Bai Jingshan saw that Ye Qiqi was silent, so he started to find a topic again.
"Yes." Ye Qiqi reluctantly smiled at him, then nodded and said: "The new fragrance powder from Nuanxiangfang looked very good, so I bought some."
"This woman..." Bai Jingshan tapped his fingers on the table, and then said to Ye Qiqi: "It would be best if you don't apply rouge, gouache or anything like that."
"Huh??" Ye Qiqi was stunned for a moment and looked at him with doubts.
"Look at those prostitutes who like to apply makeup and powder every day. Which serious woman would apply these things in front of the mirror every day?" Bai Jingshan said to Ye Qiqi with a disapproving expression: "Not to mention Miss Qi, you have already You are so naturally beautiful, but don't let those worldly things pollute your face."
“…”
"Besides, this rouge and gouache is of no great use, and it's so expensive. Just buying a box is enough to buy a new set of clothes, so why bother? If you save it, it's just another sum of money. ?" Bai Jingshan analyzed Ye Qiqi seriously.
“…”
"What's more, generally speaking, after getting married, men go out to make money to support the family, and women stay at home diligently and thriftily. If you, Miss Qi, always buy clothes, jewelry, rouge, and gouache randomly, wouldn't that mean that you will be deprived of money for a month? All the money you earned is spent??" Bai Jingshan said earnestly to Ye Qiqi.
"..." Ye Qiqi felt that her heart was getting more and more angry. She took a deep breath, forced a smile on her face, and asked Bai Jingshan: "I wonder how much Mr. Bai's monthly salary is? ?”
"Hey, no more, no more, it's only fifty taels of silver a month." Bai Jingshan waved his hand. Although he didn't say much, there was a look of pride on his face that couldn't be concealed.
"Does Mr. Bai know how much money the pile of things I just bought cost?" Ye Qiqi looked at Bai Jingshan with a smile and asked.
"Those..." Bai Jingshan glanced at the bags and boxes on the ground, and then estimated: "About thirty taels of silver?"
"Hehehe..." The smile on Ye Qiqi's face became brighter and brighter. She shook her head and stretched out four fingers towards Bai Jingshan.
"More than forty taels of silver??" Bai Jingshan's mouth twitched and he asked Ye Qiqi in disbelief.
"No." Ye Qiqi shook his head, looked straight at him, and said slowly to him word by word: "It's four hundred and seventy-eight taels of silver."
