Chapter 711: Chapter 711 Just Spoil Her
Jiang Mianmian was about to nod her head when Jiang Changhai spoke first, “Sis, don’t take the fifty cents one, take the one-dollar one for us.”
“Brother Jiang is really good to the kids. This one-dollar ice cream, though a bit expensive, is really tasty,” the sales clerk complimented, then took out four of the best ice creams from the Supply and Marketing Cooperative and handed them to Jiang Mianmian.
Jiang Mianmian looked at the exquisitely packaged ice cream and swallowed, “Wow, Dad, you’re so good.”
This ice cream was of a foreign brand and was particularly expensive; even Jiang Mianmian had never been willing to buy it.
After all, a big meat bun was just twenty cents at the time; spending a dollar on an ice cream was really quite luxurious.
Jiang Changhai, wrapping his arm around Jiang Mianmian’s shoulder, affectionately said, “If my daughter wants to eat it, she definitely has to eat the best.”
Su Wanyu gave him a glance, “You really spoil her.”
“Hehe, Mom and Dad, here you go,” Jiang Mianmian said, beaming as she handed an ice cream to each of her parents.
Jiang Changhai took the ice cream, unwrapped it, took a bite, and said very contentedly, “Mmm, not bad, this ice cream is really worth the price. Look, wife, how filial our daughter is, never forgetting us when eating anything.”
Obviously, Jiang Changhai had forgotten that he had just paid for it and credited all the merit to Jiang Mianmian.
The family of three walked along, eating their ice creams as Jiang Changhai also bought canned food, pastries, and fruit Milk Candy for Jiang Mianmian.
After buying all these, they contentedly headed home.
Jiang Mianmian had sat for several hours on a plane in the morning and had just been out for a long stroll; now, full and satisfied, she started to feel sleepy.
Seeing her nodding off, Su Wanyu told her to go back to her room for a nap.
“Yes, Mom and Dad, I’ll go back to my room and sleep for a while,” Jiang Mianmian said, holding her backpack as she returned to the bedroom.
However, she hadn’t been in her room for ten minutes before she ran back out, thumping down the stairs.
Seeing her so adorably, Jiang Changhai cheerfully asked, “Sweetheart, what’s wrong? Weren’t you going back to sleep?”
“Mom and Dad, there’s something I forgot to tell you,” Jiang Mianmian said, no longer sleepy, her eyes bright as she looked at her parents.
Su Wanyu, watching television and not even shifting her gaze, casually said, “Just say what it is.”
Knowing that her daughter had met with the top leader, she thought any other matter would be trivial.
Unless the Prime Minister himself came over or the sky fell down.
Seeing that her biological mother didn’t even glance at her, Jiang Mianmian puffed her cheeks and emphasized, “It’s really important!”
“Come here, sweetheart, come and sit down and tell us,” Jiang Changhai gestured to her.
She walked over and sat opposite her parents, softly saying, “Mom and Dad, Grandpa Yu told me a few days ago that he hopes I can go study in the Capital.”
“What? He wants you to study in the Capital?” Jiang Changhai asked, very surprised.
Su Wanyu also looked at Jiang Mianmian with a pained expression, her heart torn with conflict.
“Yes, I said I would miss you too much, but Grandpa Yu said he could transfer both of your jobs to the Capital and even provide us with a house,” Jiang Mianmian faithfully relayed Elder Yu’s words.
“They could give us a house?” Jiang Changhai, upon hearing this, was suddenly tempted.
If they moved to the Capital, they would be people from the Capital, and having his daughter study there would definitely be better than studying in their town.
Su Wanyu was also tempted; she knew this was beneficial for her daughter. Moreover, translating for the town government was not on the same level as translating in the Capital.
But she couldn’t go!
