Zhang Qiang grinned, revealing a set of neat and white teeth, and said, "Sis, who says I treat outsiders better than you? Whatever you fancy today, it’s on me. How about that?"
Zhang Qiang’s ingratiating manner made Zhang Min’s eyes light up. This shopping mall was huge, and anything she fancied, Zhang Qiang would pay for?
The money Zhang Qiang earned as a doctor over the years was saved up, and Zhang Min heard that she and Mo Weidong co-owned a store, so Zhang Qiang was quite well-off.
Even when Zhang Min got married, Zhang Qiang, as her brother, directly gave a ten thousand yuan gift.
Ten thousand yuan as a gift! That’s because their conditions have improved now. If they were worse off, even the bride price wouldn’t amount to ten thousand.
"You said it. Don’t regret it later."
Zhang Min happily blinked her eyes. Women naturally love shopping. Besides buying some necessities for Yan Wei, Zhang Min also picked out a lot of things for herself. There was no need to buy clothes, as she liked the ones at Ming Yue and Star Bright, and often got them from these two places.
In this large mall, Zhang Min was very fond of the lingerie, took several sets at once, and thinking of it, also bought a few sets for Yan Wei, as she seemed to not have brought anything yesterday.
Zhang Min really felt sympathy for Yan Wei. If she were in such a situation, she might not have handled it as well as Yan Wei did.
In comparison, Zhang Min felt that being born into the Zhang Family was such a blessing.
Leaving the mall, Zhang Qiang had already run back for the second time, carrying too many things.
Apart from things for Yan Wei, Zhang Min indulged herself in buying without having to pay, from lingerie to bags to Qingmeiren cosmetics, and perfumes, Zhang Min bought a huge pile.
"Feeling heartache?" Zhang Min was overjoyed, having bought so many things, her mood was amazing. Only when she got in the car did she realize that perhaps she spent too much today.
"Buying things for my sister and mom doesn’t ache my heart."
Zhang Qiang said with certainty. He had seen that many things Zhang Min bought were also for Liu Cuixong, and even bought a pair of earrings for their aunt, and clothes for their grandmother.
"That’s more like it."
Zhang Min was happy, and went straight home with Zhang Qiang.
"Uh, not going to find Yan Wei?" Zhang Min glanced at the road leading to their villa and couldn’t help but ask.
"She’s definitely at work now, I’ll go in the afternoon." Zhang Qiang explained, "I’m having dinner with Dongzi tonight, so I can drop it off on the way."
"Oh."
Zhang Min didn’t ask further and happily took the things home.
Liu Cuixong saw the large number of items Zhang Min bought and kept muttering, "Xiao Min, money isn’t that easy to come by. You should save a bit."
"Mom, this is the perfume I bought for you, it smells so nice. Also, these earrings, I bought a pair for both you and aunt."
Zhang Min distributed the gifts she bought. Both her grandmother and Granny Tang got coats and scarves, which looked very nice.
Even Tang Zhenghong got a scarf.
Liu Cuixong liked the items Zhang Min bought, so her nagging automatically stopped. She belatedly asked, "How much did all these things cost?"
"Qiangzi paid for them. It was his intention." Zhang Min didn’t hide Zhang Qiang’s contributions.
"Mom, it’s rare to buy you something." Zhang Qiang explained with a smile.
Liu Cuixong felt both happy and guilty about the waste, saying, "I wondered why you mysteriously took Xiao Min out. There’s no need to buy us things, as long as you’re doing well and bring home a daughter-in-law, I’ll be happy."
This, indeed, was a beautiful misunderstanding.
After speaking, Zhang Qiang placed the money in Yan Wei’s hand, turned, and left, giving her no chance to refuse.
Yan Wei held the money, looked at the pile of stuff on the table, and saw that even items like toothpaste and toothbrush were bought for her. She didn’t need to buy anything. Seeing the lingerie, her face flushed red. Even though she knew it was chosen by Zhang Min, Yan Wei still felt a bit embarrassed.
Apart from her mom, it was the first time someone treated her so well.
She was determined to earn money diligently and repay Zhang Qiang in the future.

Zhang Qiang arrived at Mo Weidong’s house. Mo Weidong raised his eyebrows and said, "What, not keeping your little girl company?"
"Dongzi, don’t talk nonsense." Zhang Qiang shot him a glance.
"Alright, alright, I’m talking nonsense. You’re just trying to help that little girl." Mo Weidong laughed and changed his words, but the implication was clear.
Zhang Qiang raised his eyebrows, flexed his wrist, and said, "If you want to spar, I’m up for it."
Mo Weidong immediately fell silent. Sparring with Zhang Qiang was as good as volunteering to be a punching bag, and he wasn’t stupid.
When Wei Jiajie arrived, the three gathered, with Tang Jun being the only one missing.
"I wonder what Xiao Jun is up to." Zhang Qiang said with feeling.
"Probably collecting herbs in some far-off corner," Mo Weidong speculated.
Wei Jiajie took a sip of his drink and said, "Well, he’s definitely not at home."
"Ah, do you remember the night after we finished our college entrance exams? We all got drunk, and you slept on the floor clutching the sofa leg all night." Mo Weidong pointed at Wei Jiajie, reminiscing about the scene and wanting to laugh.
