Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife-Chapter 1488 Major Purchases 1

While Christine and her friends were eating scallion pancakes, Lu Jiang and his family along with Xibao safely returned home.

The gifts from Belna included some original books and candies, but everything else had to be stored away in the attic, the belts and wallets meant for Grandfather Lu and his siblings were of no use to them. Lu’s father and Lu Tianzhi didn’t even touch them, letting Feng Qingxue keep them aside, only Fubao kept thinking about her dress, the beautiful dolls were not appealing to her at all.

She didn’t like them, but the triplets did, they rolled around on the kang bed fighting over the dolls, and were almost about to fight when Xibao disciplined Lu Erxiong and Zhuangzhuang. Finally, the triplets took turns playing with them, constantly calling for their sister, and even slept with the dolls tucked in their blankets.

Once her brothers had gone to sleep and her brother had gone to their grandfather’s room, Fubao jumped up and rushed into her parents’ bedroom.

"Mom, I want to wear the dress!"

Feng Qingxue was unpacking the gift box, seeing the stack of hundred-dollar Overseas Chinese remittance vouchers inside without even getting the chance to express her surprise, she was startled by her daughter’s eager face.

"You child, what’s the hurry?" Feng Qingxue couldn’t help but gently tap her.

As Fubao kneeled beside her on the kang, she looked up smiling eagerly, "Mom, let me try it on!"

Lu Jiang, who had just brought in the water to wash their feet, heard this and said confusedly, "My good girl, try on what?"

"Dresses! The two dresses Belna gave to Fubao. Seeing the dress Christine wore, your daughter was so envious and eager, she couldn’t wait to wear it herself." She’s always been vain since little, and still hasn’t changed.

Fubao immediately said, "Mom said I could wear it to show dad and mom."

It’s this era that has caused such situations, even fashions that were popular more than a decade ago can’t be worn, Lu Jiang felt terribly sad, "My girl, let’s not rush, when you grow up, mom and dad will buy dresses for you, we can change it every day, not repeat a single one."

"When will that be?" Fubao pressed on.

Lu Jiang calculated the time, after this catastrophe passes, things will gradually get better, but to reach a point where everyone can have a dress, that might not be until the 1980s, their family couldn’t be too unconventional, "Another six years, six years later our Fubao will be in her charming teens, wearing a red dress, standing tall and beautiful, just like your mom."

"That’s still a long time, I want to wear a red dress now." Christine’s parents had given her one.

"Alright, alright!"

Fubao has white skin, black hair, features like a painting, red lips and white teeth, standing tall and beautiful like a budding flower.

"Beautiful, my girl is just beautiful!" Lu Jiang incessantly praised, not minding the fact that the dress was one size too big and did not fit her properly, then turned to look at his wife whose feet were soaking in a wooden basin, "Wife, am I right?" freewebnσvel.cøm

Feng Qingxue nodded, "Fubao, aren’t you cold? Quickly change out of it, wait until the weather gets warmer to wear it for mom and dad."

"Mom, I am not cold on the kang." Fubao didn’t want to take it off.

"My dear daughter, listen to mom, you will have pretty dresses to wear when you grow up."

Fubao sighed and obediently changed her clothes, then ran to stay with Wang Cuilan in her room.

Feng Qingxue dried off her feet and went back to the kang, securing the box with the Overseas Chinese remittance vouchers into a space; the vouchers were valuable goods, with one hundred-dollar Capital Overseas Chinese remittance voucher equating to twenty kilograms of Grain Ticket, three kilograms of oil ticket, twenty shopping coupons, and five kilograms of food coupons.
