In her past life, Nianyang was a designer and knew how to pick the most suitable clothes for soone based on their body shape and temperant.
The clothes in these tis may not be as colorful and varied as in later eras, but the materials are quite comprehensive, just lacking a bit in design.
Of course, that’s how Nianyang, who has experienced the grand scenes of the future, views it. To those born and raised in these tis, all new clothes look good.
Lin Xia is a bit petite, so Nianyang bought her a short pink down jacket, which made her look playful and cute.
Bai Xueli is big and burly, so Nianyang got her a long black cotton-padded coat that made her look slimr.
Xu Zhiyi has the most proportionate figure, with a gentle and polite deanor and well-maintained skin, so Nianyang selected a pale blue woolen coat that highlighted her elegance.
Holding the three different styles of clothes, Xu Zhiyi and the others were dumbfounded.
The reason was simple: they were at an age where money was tight due to managing the household and raising children, with no spare cash for new clothes. What Nianyang did was remarkably generous.
"Girl, how could you frivolously spend money to buy us clothes? These must be so expensive. Quickly, take them back and return them. We’re all family; there’s no need for a welco gift!"
Xu Zhiyi was the first to react, although she really liked the clothes Nianyang chose for her.
But she could feel that the wool coat’s material was very comfortable and definitely expensive, so it wasn’t easy to accept such an expensive gift from a young girl.
"Yeah, you should return them quickly. Otherwise, if your man finds out how you’re spending money, he might scold you."
Lin Xia hurriedly tried to return the clothes to Nianyang, knowing that clothes from that store were prohibitive, equivalent to her husband’s monthly allowance.
Though she liked small advantages, she had her limits. She had only t Nianyang for less than a day, and she hadn’t done anything to deserve such expensive clothes from soone else.
Li Yama’s salary wasn’t high, and Nianyang spending so much might deplete her man’s savings, right?
When Manager Li got angry and took it out on Nianyang, wouldn’t she beco the scapegoat?
Far away, Li Yama protested his innocence. He cherished his wife too much to ever hit her; plus, the money she spent was what she earned. He wished he had the chance to let her spend all his money!
anwhile, Bai Xueli didn’t move, holding onto the clothes. It had been years since she’d worn anything new, and this was a gift from Nianyang. How could she bear to return it?
"Not expensive. You all ca to help today, and it’s just a token of my appreciation. Since I’ve already bought them, there’s no returning.
If you sisters keep being polite, then I’ll be polite with you too, and I won’t accept your kind gestures in the future!"
Recognizing Nianyang’s sincerity, Xu Zhiyi didn’t decline further. She held Nianyang’s hand and said,
"Alright then, young lady, I’ll bravely accept it. But when I buy you a present later, you shouldn’t refuse it."
Lin Xia added, "Our family’s situation isn’t great, so I can’t afford expensive gifts. I’ll invite you and Manager Li to dinner with my husband when we have ti as a gift."
Bai Xueli finally spoke up, "I can join Saozi Lin in treating you to a al and make it a feast!"
Nianyang observed the reactions of the three won, gaining a deeper understanding of them in her heart.
Xu Zhiyi, without saying, was soone worth befriending.
Lin Xia, though shy, had a simple character and could be a surface-level friend.
As for Bai Xueli, she was more calculating, so Nianyang needed to keep a distance.
Fortunately, she had given her gifts, repaying the kindness they showed today, leaving no debts between them.
