Chapter 351
Before visiting Mingyue Jiehua's house again, Li Xuehao didn't plan to be so casual.
Yesterday, I didn't know that the two families were related, so I only brought a box of biscuits to my door. This time, if I want to buy a gift, I have to choose something that is practical and a little more expensive.
Go home and change into regular clothes. Chiba Sayuri, Melon Mai, and Majima Yuki are all at home. After talking to them, they go out.
The target is Mrs. Sakai's convenience store.
Entering the store, Mrs. Sakai who was standing behind the cashier immediately spotted him: "Welcome, Shinaka-kun."
"Hello, Mrs. Zejing." Li Xuehao replied politely.
"Eriko has already gone back from get off work." Mrs. Sakai smiled lightly, with a hint of ambiguity on her face.
Li Xuehao was a little embarrassed. Mrs. Zejing's tone was as if he had something to do with Mrs. Hosoya, and he quickly pointed in a certain direction and asked, "The daily necessities area is over there, right?"
Asking the question, before Mrs. Sakai could answer, someone else had already walked over there.
I often come to the convenience store, although I can't say that I fully understand the whole convenience store, but I still know some of the places I frequent.
Li Xuehao is going to buy an electric shaver for Mingyue's father, Mingyue Daisuke. Yesterday, he saw the fibrous roots on his face. It looks like he hasn't shaved for a few days. He looks a little decadent. For some reason, in short, these practical small appliances are not very expensive, and they are very suitable for gifting to some elders.
As for the gift for Mrs. Mingyue, there is no one in the convenience store, so I can only wait to buy it in another specialty store.
Entering the daily necessities area, I quickly found a shelf of electric shavers, all of which are medium-priced razors, ranging from more than 1,000 yen to more than 10,000 yen.
Li Xuehao chose a razor worth more than 9,000 yen and left the daily necessities area.
When passing a row of snack shelves, I saw another familiar figure.
The figure looks a little petite, crouching under a row of snack shelves, wearing a dark green middle school uniform.
Although it was different from the twin ponytails when he visited the cultural festival two days ago, Li Xuehao recognized her at a glance as Yuko Sawai.
Seeing her squatting there sneakily, it is estimated that she was "stealing" the snacks in the store again.
Since it happened, Li Xuehao didn't care about delaying so much time.
He stepped forward, came behind Yuko Sawai, and coughed softly: "Yuko-chan~~"
Hearing this sudden sound, Yuko Sawai's body shook violently, turned around, his face flushed red, and he said anxiously, "No, I didn't..." When he saw who was in front of him, his cheeks suddenly bulged, "Big Brother Koji, you're here to scare me again."
When he was talking, he didn't hide it at all, just took out the dessert behind him, grabbed a handful, and stuffed it into his mouth.
The petite body of about one meter five has already begun to take shape. The two slender legs under the short skirt are slender and long, wearing white knee-length bubble socks and black leather shoes, the image of a pure and lovely junior high school student is undoubtedly revealed.
But now her mouth is full of food, and she doesn't care about her image as a cute girl, like a reincarnation of a starving ghost.
"Are you stealing food again? Be careful of being caught by my mother." Li Xuehao stretched out his hand and tugged at her baby's fat cheek. Every time he saw her bulging cheeks, he couldn't help but want to pull it.
"Woo~~" Yuko Sawai was so pulled that he couldn't even chew snacks properly, so he quickly parted one hand, took his hand away, and said, "Hmph, I won't, my mother has been standing outside, so I won't. Come in... uh, mom?" At the end, Yuko Sakai looked behind Li Xuehao with a frightened expression.
Li Xuehao had heard footsteps approaching, and he knew who it was. He said that on purpose.
"Yuko-chan, you said that the person who came in to choose stationery was hiding here?" Mrs. Sakai walked over with a smile, with a kind smile on her face, but something was beating on the corner of her brow.
"Mom..." Yuko Sawai was a little frightened. At this time, the snack bag in her hand was the biggest "criminal evidence". It was impossible to hide it.
"Humph!" Mrs. Zejing snorted coldly, then turned to look at Li Xuehao, "Zhenzhong-kun, have you already picked something?"
"Yes, an electric razor, ready to give to an elder." Li Xuehao picked up the razor box in his hand.
His answer also gave Yuko Sawai an excellent inspiration, and he immediately shoved the snack bag in his hand into his hand: "Mom, it was Brother Koji who said he wanted to eat it, so I helped him open it... oh , I also tasted it, the taste...it's okay..."
Li Xuehao couldn't help laughing and laughing. It is estimated that only this little girl can do such a "framing" method.
Mrs. Sakai's eyebrows seemed to jump even more, and she smiled coldly: "Then how do you want to punish your brother Koji?"
Seeing this "terrifying" smile, Yuko Sawai subconsciously stepped back and said, "I think since it's Koji brother, why not let him go?"
"You want me to let you go, right?" How could Mrs. Sakai not know her thoughts and give her a cold look.
Terrified, Yuko Sawai hurriedly shrank his head, hid behind Li Xuehao, and kept shouting: "No, no, it's really brother Koji who wants to eat..."
Seeing her hiding, Mrs. Sakai didn't really teach her a lesson: "Forget it this time, next time I'll be caught, Yuko-chan, I won't let you go easily. Don't think that your mother doesn't know, you see Look, what is that?" As she spoke, Mrs. Sakai pointed to the ceiling above her head, where there was a small camera.
"What... ah—" Looking up, Yuko Sawai understood immediately, and her face turned white.
"So, every time you come in, Mom can see what you do." Mrs. Sakai smiled smugly.
Thinking of being seen clearly every time she steals "snacks", Yuko Sawai's face turned pale and then flushed, and she puffed her cheeks and said, "Mom is too cunning, I don't like you anymore. Okay." After saying that, he ran away angrily.
Li Xuehao glanced at her back, and Mrs. Sawai thought he was worried about her daughter, and said quickly, "Don't worry, Shinzhong-kun, Yuko-chan just lost his temper and will go home obediently later."
"Yeah." Li Xuehao responded, followed Mrs. Zejing to the cashier and put the razor on it.
"Is Shinaka-kun buying this today?" Mrs. Sakai asked casually.
"I have to buy a set of cosmetics, but there are no suitable ones in the convenience store." Li Xuehao said.
"Cosmetics?" Mrs. Sakai's eyes lit up, and she took out a paper bag from under the cashier, "How do you like this, Mr. Zhenzhong?" After saying that, she took out the contents of the paper bag. It was a set of cosmetics from a certain brand. , Li Xuehao had seen the advertisement of this makeup brand when he was watching TV before.
"How could Madam..." Li Xuehao was very curious. Does the convenience store operate everything now, or is it that Madam Zejing can figure out what he is going to buy today?
"Actually, I bought it for my own use, but I regretted it after I bought it. It was too expensive, and I was reluctant to use it... This is the price, Shinaka-kun." Mrs. Sakai revealed the price as she spoke.
The price is more than 88,000 yen, which is indeed considered a medium-to-high-end product. It is several levels higher than the cosmetics he bought from Chika Hosoya. It is no wonder that Mrs. Sakai, who has always been frugal, feels heartache.
"Then leave it to me, and I don't have to go to other stores to buy it." Li Xuehao naturally wouldn't mind, not only saving his own time but also helping others.
