1115 Buying, Buying, And That Romantic Daydream (3/3)
Chapter 1115 Buying, buying, and that romantic reverie (33)
"This is very suitable for playing with!" When visiting this wooden art exhibition hall, Yang Yi and the others not only saw many wooden dolls with animal images, but also saw many wooden toys, like Lan Xin and Xi just now. The ferris wheel wooden music box that Xi found, and now Murphy found a kind of educational wooden toy-knocking ball box.
Like Xian Bao, Murphy greeted Yang Yi with a smile and came over to take a look: "Look, it has wooden balls of different sizes and colors, and the different holes in this box correspond to different wooden balls. You have to put it right before you can knock it in!"
She also showed Yang Yi a demonstration with great interest!
I saw Murphy picking up a small blue ball, gesturing to find the matching hole on the panel, and stuffing it. There is a ring of rubber wrapped in the middle of the hole, which has a good sense of damping. Obviously, it is a bit difficult to plug it hard! But with a moving smile in Murphy's crooked eyes, he raised a small wooden mallet next to it that was polished smooth, and knocked the blue ball into it little by little like a whack-a-mole game.
"Plop!" The sound of the ball falling into the wooden box was dull but pleasant.
Xiao Tongtong's eyes were wide open, and he was dumbfounded watching his mother's operation in his father's arms!
"Look! It's fun!" Murphy proudly gestured to Yang Yi with the gavel in her hand.
Yang Yi just smiled, and Xiao Tong Tong actively stretched out his little hand to ask his mother for a small mallet. With a happy smile on his little mouth, he said childishly, "Mama, I want to play..."
At this time, Xixi ran over again, and excitedly tugged at the hem of her father's clothes: "Papa, come and have a look!"
Yang Yi was a little out of sorts, so he had to let Mo Fei take Xiao Tong to play with toys, and he followed Xixi to see her new discovery.
What the little girl found was a cartoon puppet of a monkey with big ears, but it was different from ordinary puppets, its style was a bit like Monchhichi! Big ears, claws like small animals, but the body is upright, anthropomorphic, and the face is made into the appearance of a child, short eyebrows, big eyes, small nose, happy smile, if Just looking at its face, there is also a kind of cuteness that makes people love it! (Note: Prototype: Chubu with Big Ears - from Russia.)
If you count its big ears, then this monkey with big ears is even cuter!
Because and except that its face is no different from that of a human being, its brown hair makes it look more like a little doll wearing this kind of one-piece pajamas with big ears!
The combination of fluffy dolls and puppets naturally attracted Xixi's attention immediately.
"Papa, look, isn't she super cute?" Xixi pulled her father over, her big watery eyes looked at her father with anticipation, and said a little excitedly and nervously.
Of course Yang Yi could understand. Although the little girl didn't say it directly, what she meant out of the line was: Baba, such a cute monkey with big ears, let's take it home, okay?
Lan Xin helped Xixi hold the magic rabbit she wanted before, but she was not willing to be lonely, and interjected with a giggle: "Xixi, Xixi, look, there are more! The monkey with big ears is still holding An apple, I thought it was a real apple just now, and then I took a look, only to find that it is also wood! It really looks like an apple, and it is a super beautiful red apple! Hee hee, hee hee!"
"Really! Wow!" Xixi exclaimed in amazement.
Yang Yi looked at his daughter, and then at Murphy who was trying out various wooden toys suitable for children with Xiao Tongtong, and said with some dumbfounding: "Xixi, this monkey with big ears is a bit too big. , we bought it, it’s not easy to take it back!”
Does that mean you can't buy it?
Xixi's cute little face suddenly became tangled, she pouted her mouth slightly, held her father's finger in her hand and shook it back and forth, muttering: "But...but..."
Xixi couldn't think of any reason to persuade her father to buy this super cute monkey with big ears for herself.
But at this moment, Yang Yi smiled, waved his right hand, and said boldly: "However, this time is an exception. Even if it is troublesome to bring it back, we will find a way and buy it!"
No way, who made him appreciate these wooden designs? Who made the whole family show such a fanatical attitude? Even if he didn't buy it for Xixi, Murphy himself would buy a lot of wooden toys for Xiao Tongtong to play at home. Yang Yi can't favor one over another, can he?
Simply, this time I will be willful once!
"Buy, buy, buy!" Yang Yi said generously, "Xin'er, do you like anything? Just pick a few, come out once in a while, buy some small gifts for your parents when you go back!"
Not to mention Lan Xin's reaction, Xixi was already surprised. After she confirmed that her father was not cheating, a sweet smile appeared on her pretty face. She hugged her father's hand joyfully and danced excitedly. Get up: "Papa, you are so kind! Hee hee, I know you are the best papa, you love me the most!"
How long has it been since Xixi was happy like this? Seeing the little girl jumping happily, Yang Yi couldn't help but smiled softly.
...
Before going to the venue for the rehearsal, Yang Yi, Murphy, and three children spent their lunch time in a very distinctive theme restaurant.
The cakes and drinks in this restaurant don't have much to say in detail, because in terms of deliciousness, Yang Yi can make more delicious baked cakes and make more delicious fruit milk tea.
But what makes it interesting lies in its wonderful theme decoration. The paint on the walls and floors is either white dots on a red background or red dots on a white background. Dots of different sizes create a special sense of starry sky ! Of course, it's an eye-popping red and white hue!
Not only the decorations on the walls and floors, but also the table and bean bag sofa-shaped plastic seats, all of which have a lovely appearance of red dots on a white background!
In this restaurant, Xixi, Xiaotong, and Murphy all showed strong interest. After all, women still tend to like these bright and lovely colors!
I also have to mention the cake here!
Although Lan Xin didn't think it was that delicious, she also thought this cake was very pretty! There is a layer of white cheese on the surface, dotted with round dots decorated with strawberry juice, which seems to echo the theme of this restaurant.
Of course, the taste was mediocre. After the little ones were full, they didn't show too much interest. Instead, they took out the wooden toys they bought just now and played with Xiao Tongtong.
Yang Yi sat and chatted leisurely with Murphy, resting his legs after walking all morning.
"You know, what did I think when I made a comeback? What would I do if I failed and failed to sing again?" Murphy asked Yang Yi with a smile.
They haven't really talked about this topic yet.
After all, they are all looking forward to a bright future, so why would they look back and study past failures?
"What will you do?" Yang Yi asked curiously, "Go back to America?"
"No, I mean that I have slowly begun to accept your thoughts during that time period. Guess what I thought at that time? Guess!" Murphy laughed.
"It's hard to guess, but I don't think you will become a teacher. I don't think you have the personality to be a music teacher." Yang Yi smiled wryly and shook his head, and said, "I really can't guess, I don't know that you can't do anything but sing. What else can you do!"
"I can also arrange flowers! Don't think I'm stupid, I don't know anything, okay!" Murphy pouted angrily and said angrily.
"Oh, yes, flower arrangement! Your flower arrangement is top-notch!" Yang Yi laughed.
Only then did Murphy nodded in satisfaction, grinned, and said, "It's not a secret, let me tell you! If I really can't sing anymore, I hope to open a flower arrangement shop next to your coffee shop, no Flower shop! My flowers are not for sale, but for everyone to see! Then customers can pay, so that they can DIY their flower arrangements by themselves, I provide them with raw materials, and I can also give them some guidance."
"That's a good idea, it sounds wonderful!" Yang Yi gave Murphy a thumbs up and praised.
In fact, Murphy has no business acumen at all in her thinking. In this store, she has never thought about making a profit, and she relies entirely on customers to pay for DIY to make money? I'm afraid not many people have the leisure time to make these, many young boys who want to be romantic, most of them are only willing to spend money to buy other people's ready-made bouquets!
What's more, in the material age, the mind may not be worth a lot of money. No matter how meticulous the DIY is, it is just a few isolated flowers, which may not be as effective as a large bouquet of bright red roses.
Therefore, Murphy's idea is unrealistic.
But what does it matter? Where does Yang Yi need Murphy to make money? If she wants to open a flower arrangement shop and just cut out some art-like flower arrangements for others to see, Yang Yi will unconditionally support her!
After receiving Yang Yi's praise, Murphy pursed her lips, her beautiful eyes shone with joy, and she smiled sweetly: "Also, I think the best is our two shops." Can be next to each other, you open a coffee shop, I open a flower arrangement shop! It's like Grandpa Hu and Grandma Hu, who open a bookstore by themselves, and plant flowers all over the outside, how romantic!"
Yang Yi could see the longing in Murphy's eyes. In fact, Yang Yi understood that what Murphy yearned for was not the so-called flower arrangement shop. What she wanted more was Mr. Hu Songnan, who had been the same as his wife for decades. Day's love...
At the beginning, when Yang Yi and Murphy were still living in the small upstairs of the coffee shop, didn't Murphy, who felt very safe in his heart, often pester Yang Yi and ask him to tell her the story of Mr. Hu?
Yang Yi reached out to grab Murphy's catkin, held it gently, and said softly, "Trust me, there will be!"
