Just as Liu Yifeng was about to pay, Tong Tong’s voice rang out, "Daddy, don't forget to use my money to buy it for Aunt Xia!"
"Tong Tong, do you have that much money? These clothes are not cheap!" Xia Qianqian's clothing tag showed three thousand two hundred, and with the inner sweater and pants, the whole set cost six thousand!
This was equivalent to an ordinary person's salary for three to four months.
Before Tong Tong could speak, Liu Yifeng smiled and said, "Tong Tong sold his paintings for tens of thousands of yuan before. Later, I got him a card, and every time I earn money, I deposit some into his card as his growth fund!"
"Tong Tong, you're so amazing! You can make money yourself at such a young age. When I was your age, I could barely speak!" Xia Qianqian praised.
"We're all the same. Only Tong Tong can be this amazing at such a young age. Look at Yaoyao, she's only a few months younger than Tong Tong, but compared to him, there's no comparison!" Xu Muqing wasn't deliberately belittling her daughter; the facts were there for everyone to see.
While they were talking, Liu Yifeng paid for Xia Qianqian with Tong Tong's card.
Xia Qianqian looked at the clothes in her hands and felt a bit embarrassed. "Tong Tong, you're so young, and you bought clothes for an adult like me. I feel a little ashamed. How about this, let's go to the toy store, and if you see any toys you like, I'll buy them for you! And Yaoyao, let's go together!"
"I don't want any toys, but since sister Yaoyao came from so far to play with me, I want to give her a gift!" Tong Tong said.
Liu Yifeng smiled and asked, "Then what gift do you want to give sister Yaoyao?"
Tong Tong thought for a moment and said, "I want to give Yaoyao a Barbie doll!" After saying that, he looked at Yaoyao. "Do you like Barbie dolls?"
No girl would be uninterested in dolls. Yaoyao nodded excitedly, "I like Barbie dolls, thank you, brother Tong Tong!"
Xu Muqing, who hadn't had a chance to speak yet, saw Yaoyao had already thanked him and felt a little helpless. "You child, you don't know how to be polite at all. Brother Tong Tong is the same age as you, how can he buy you a gift!"
"It's okay, Aunt Xu. I'm older than sister Yaoyao, so it's only right that I give her a gift."
Xu Muqing liked the sensible Tong Tong more and more. "You are so young, yet your heart is so delicate. When you grow up and have a girlfriend, I bet she will be the happiest person in the world."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yaoyao's voice chimed in, "I want to be brother Tong Tong's girlfriend, I want to be the happiest person in the world!"
Xu Muqing immediately felt awkward. "You child, do you even know what a girlfriend is, to be speaking so carelessly!"
However, what Tong Tong said next made her realize what true embarrassment was. "Who says I don't know? A girlfriend is someone a boyfriend can kiss, and you can have little babies together!"
Xu Muqing blushed instantly. She was usually someone who remained unfazed even if Mount Tai collapsed before her, but Yaoyao's words made her wish she could disappear into a crack in the earth.
Liu Yifeng and Xia Qianqian were also stunned by Yaoyao's innocent yet shocking words. Are children so precocious these days? At such a young age, they already knew about having babies.
After a long pause, Xu Muqing recovered and asked Yaoyao seriously, "Where did you learn all this?" If she learned these things in kindergarten, she wouldn't mind finding a new kindergarten for Yaoyao.
"It was classmate Tao Zile who told me. He said his aunt had a boyfriend, was pregnant, and would get married during the New Year. Mommy, if I get pregnant with brother Tong Tong's baby in the future, can we get married too?"
"You are only a few years old, you should focus on your studies. You are not allowed to talk about these things anymore!" Xia Qianqian said sternly.
Seeing her mother angry, Yaoyao dared not say anything more. Although her mother was very good to her, she was also genuinely strict, and what she feared most was her mother's anger.
Seeing that Yaoyao had become quiet, Xu Muqing looked at Liu Yifeng awkwardly. "Yifeng, please don't mind, the child is still young and says whatever comes to mind!"
"It's fine, but they are indeed too young. It's too early to talk about romance right now." Liu Yifeng had never thought about Tong Tong having a girlfriend when he grew up; that was too far in the future for him. However, if Tong Tong's future girlfriend was Yaoyao, he wouldn't object, as long as Tong Tong liked her. But deep down, he felt Yaoyao wasn't good enough for Tong Tong. It wasn't that she wasn't excellent, but Tong Tong was too outstanding. Most girls wouldn't even measure up to his standards, let alone be a match for him.
To prevent Yaoyao from saying anything else shocking, Xu Muqing quickly took her hand and led her out of the clothing store.
In the lobby on the first floor, there was a children's play area with trampolines, slides, merry-go-rounds, building blocks, and a sandpit. Since it was not a school day, there were already quite a few children playing inside. Yaoyao saw it and couldn't move, completely forgetting about the Barbie doll.
Seeing this, Liu Yifeng asked, "Yaoyao, do you want to play here?"
Yaoyao didn't hesitate and nodded immediately, "Yes, I want to play!"
Even Tong Tong expressed his desire to play. He had never played in such a place before and thought it looked very fun!
Before Liu Yifeng could buy tickets, Xu Muqing had already bought two, costing forty yuan for the whole day until closing time. However, children usually got bored after a couple of hours, let alone playing from two in the afternoon until nine at night. They would need immense energy.
"Tong Tong, take care of sister Yaoyao, we'll wait for you outside!" Liu Yifeng said, looking at Tong Tong, who had already taken off his shoes and was playing with a ball. Many parents were sitting on chairs outside waiting. Bringing children to play here was essentially a break for the parents. They had to accompany their children closely at home, but here, they could relax, as there was only one exit, and they could see the children when they came out.
Watching the two children playing happily, Liu Yifeng, Xu Muqing, and Xia Qianqian started chatting.
"Children these days are so lucky. Unlike when I was little, all my toys were handmade. I couldn't buy a single toy all year round!"
"I was a bit better. My family never lacked dolls!" Xia Qianqian said.
Xu Muqing chimed in, "My family was quite poor when I was little. Forget about toys, I had to do a lot of housework!"
"Fortunately, life is getting better, and children no longer have to endure the hardships we went through in our generation," Liu Yifeng sighed.
As they were chatting and laughing, suddenly, a child's cry was heard from the amusement park. They looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl, about four years old, crying her eyes out. Several other children stood nearby, all scared by her crying and looking helpless. Among the standing children were Tong Tong and Yaoyao. However, neither Liu Yifeng nor Xu Muqing thought the crying child had anything to do with them, as these two children were very sensible and never bullied others.
At this moment, the parent who heard the crying came in angrily. "Daughter, who bullied you? Tell Daddy, and Daddy will teach them a lesson!" The little girl cried even louder when she saw her parent. Seeing his daughter so heartbroken, the man became even more furious. In his eyes, the more heartbroken his daughter was, the more severely she must have been bullied. He suppressed his anger, squatted down, and asked softly, "Don't cry, my dear. Daddy is here. Tell Daddy, who bullied you?"
The girl sobbed and pointed at Yaoyao. "She bullied me!" Yaoyao was startled and repeatedly denied, "It wasn't me, I didn't bully you!"
The man didn't care. Seeing that Yaoyao had bullied his daughter, he shoved Yaoyao hard and said, "Don't you have anyone to discipline you? How dare you bully my daughter! Go call your parents!" With the shove, Yaoyao almost fell to the ground, but Tong Tong reached out and supported her.
