Chen Xu and Jinxia had bought a huge load of New Year's goods, stuffing the trunk of the car full, and they managed to return to Grandma's before lunch.
"How come you bought so much stuff?" Grandma asked, seeing him carry bag after bag inside, a bit reproachfully. "Why spend all this money in vain? When your uncle and the others come back, they'll do the buying."
Chen Xu smiled and said, "It's fine, I got promoted this year and got a raise."
"That's enough, that's enough, take the rest back home."
"I've already bought for our home; this is for you."
Yang Jinxia pulled Grandma aside and said, "This is just a small gesture from Chen Xu, don't stop him."
"This child, spending money without any restraint. What will you do when you two get married?" Grandma fretted half-complainingly.
"Grandma—" Yang Jinxia's face bore a hint of shyness.
Third Aunt, upon seeing Chen Xu carrying in a goose, asked, "Why do you have a goose?"
