485: Doraemon's backpack

"Thousands!"

Just now at the door, having seen Ye Ruo's reaction, Su Wan had already guessed that the things Ye Su bought back would be very expensive.

But hearing Ye Ruo say that a plain, ordinary short-sleeved shirt cost at least several thousand yuan, Su Wan felt an instant pang of heartache.

In Su Wan's view of consumption, a short-sleeved shirt for summer was good enough if it cost a few dozen yuan.

To buy clothes costing hundreds of yuan, it would have to be a thick winter coat.

Like the short-sleeved shirt in her hand, which was just a few pieces of fabric, Su Wan would hesitate for a long time even if it were sold for one hundred yuan, let alone several thousand.

"Does this shirt really cost several thousand yuan each?" Su Wan still didn't quite believe it.

"Yes." Ye Su didn't hide it: "These few outfits average about twenty thousand yuan each."

The biggest purpose of these brands is, after all, to provide emotional value.

If he just made it up and said they cost a few dozen yuan, wouldn't that money have been wasted?

"Twenty thousand yuan for an outfit!"

This time, not only Su Wan, but even Ye Jianguo and the other two were startled.

Never mind an outfit costing twenty thousand; normally, they wouldn't even spend twenty thousand yuan on clothes for the whole year!

"These clothes are too expensive. Did you get scammed? Why don't you send them back and get a refund!"

"It's fine. We have the means now, so just feel free to wear them." Ye Su didn't let Su Wan continue dwelling on the clothes and picked up a glass jar from the side:

"This is 20-year aged tangerine peel. It's good stuff; even with money, you might not be able to buy it. Take a look."

"20-year aged tangerine peel!"

The four people in the family were once again shocked by what Ye Su had brought out.

Even Li Shanhai couldn't put this kind of aged tangerine peel down, let alone Ye Jianguo and Su Wan.

Putting down the clothes that had suddenly become insignificant in her hands, Su Wan took the glass jar with both hands and couldn't wait to open it and take a sniff.

She then handed the glass jar to Ye Jianguo, letting him take a few sniffs as well.

"Hurry up!" Ye Ruo stretched out her hands: "Let me smell it too. What does this kind of dried tangerine peel smell like!"

Ye Ruo actually had no interest in things like dried tangerine peel or tea.

But hearing that it was 20-year aged tangerine peel, she knew it was very expensive, and she just purely wanted to smell the scent of money.

After the glass jar had made a round through the four people's hands, Su Wan hurriedly took it from Ye Xin and put the lid back on, afraid that the scent would dissipate.

After putting away the lottery tickets, Ye Su handed the cosmetics, moisturizing serum, and masks that Yan Ran had picked out to Su Wan and Ye Ruo respectively.

Needless to say, when Ye Ruo saw the Givenchy logo, she snatched the cosmetics from Ye Su's hands.

Su Wan waved her hand and said: "Forget about me. I'm already at this age; why would I use these things?"

Ye Su persuaded her: "I've already bought them, so just use them. If you don't, they'll all be wasted by that brat later."

Ye Ruo, who was looking through the cosmetics, instantly became murderous: "Say that again! Who are you calling a brat!"

Su Wan didn't take sides, but helplessly patted Ye Su: "You have no respect for your elders. This is your sister; how can you call her a brat?"

With her own mother upholding justice, Ye Ruo's anger subsided, and she triumphantly shook her head at Ye Su:

"Did you hear that? You can't be disrespectful to your elders, or else people will think our Ye family has no upbringing."

"What do you mean, no upbringing?" Su Wan turned her head and glared at Ye Ruo: "I was talking about him, not you, right?"

A single sentence made Ye Ruo deflate; she didn't dare to continue showing off and lowered her head, silently admiring the full set of Givenchy cosmetics.

Ye Su didn't continue to court death and moved the six bottles of wine to in front of Ye Jianguo:

"Dad, I brought this wine for you. Four of these are Moutai that have been aged for a few years, so just open them and drink.

These two are a romanée-conti Montrachet Grand Cru white wine and an Échezeaux Grand Cru red wine. Both have been cellared for over 20 years. You can drink them yourself or keep them as a collection."

The name romanée-conti was so famous that even if Ye Jianguo didn't particularly like red wine, he knew this wine couldn't be cheap.

Su Wan didn't know what [romanée-conti] was, but hearing that the wine had been cellared for over 20 years, she knew it must be very expensive and immediately warned Ye Jianguo:

"Just taste this wine occasionally; don't get drunk on it."

This time, Ye Su also stood on Su Wan's side, using her authority to intimidate his father: "You heard what my mom said, right?"

"Got it."

Ye Jianguo never had any way to deal with this mother and son, so he could only obediently agree. He picked up a bottle of wine, and regardless of the fact that he couldn't read the foreign language on it, he put on his glasses and started admiring it carefully.

After the wine was taken out, Ye Su took his backpack and pulled out the main event prepared by Li Mengyao and Yan Ran.

"Mom, this bracelet is for you."

Ye Su took out a jewelry box, opened it, and handed it to Su Wan.

"What a beautiful bracelet!"

Seeing the crystal-clear jade bracelet in the box, Su Wan couldn't take her eyes off it.

Carefully taking the bracelet out of the box, Su Wan was so excited she could hardly speak.

Ye Ruo also leaned in next to Su Wan, stretching her neck to look at the bracelet in Su Wan's hand:

"What a bright piece of jade. It looks just like glass. You didn't buy a glass bracelet to fool Mom, did you?"

"What kind of talk is that?" Ye Su put his hands on his hips:

"This is a genuine ice-variety jade, alright? I helped the Poyun Group with a favor earlier, and the eldest miss of the Poyun Group specifically entrusted me to give it to Mom as a token of gratitude. I heard that on the market, a bracelet like this costs several hundred thousand yuan."

"Ah!" Su Wan's hand trembled, and she almost didn't hold the bracelet steady:

"How could you accept such an expensive item from them!"

As she said this, she put the bracelet back into the box and pushed it back to Ye Su: "When you go back to Yangcheng, return it to them!"

"Just keep it." Ye Su stopped Su Wan:

"I helped her with a few favors, and later, by some twist of fate, I helped her discover that the finance department manager had embezzled millions in public funds. She entrusted me to give this to you to thank me."

"Ah, this…"

Seeing that Su Wan was still hesitant, Ye Su continued to persuade her: "Just keep it. The Poyun Group specializes in the jewelry business. They are a big, wealthy family; they don't lack this little bit."

"Alright then…"

Su Wan had liked the bracelet at first sight, and hearing that it was a gift in return for helping someone, she accepted it with peace of mind.

Ye Su, like Doraemon pulling things out of his pocket, took two more boxes out of his backpack:

"Dad, these are two Rolex men's watches. One for you and one for Brother. I don't know which one you two like, so just choose for yourselves."

"I get one too!"

Just now, Ye Xin had thought that Ye Su had only bought two sets of clothes, never expecting that in the blink of an eye, he would pull out a Rolex watch.

That's his own brother for you!

Moutai, red wine, the garment factory, doing business together…

Having already accepted so many things, Ye Jianguo and Ye Xin no longer acted coy and reached out to take the two boxes Ye Su handed over.

Ye Xin was quite sensible; after opening the box and taking a look, he handed it to Ye Jianguo:

"Dad, you pick first, and I'll take the rest."

Ye Jianguo waved his hands repeatedly: "I'm already at this age; it's all the same what I wear. Whichever one you like, just take it."
