BXBX NOVEL Chapter 206: Daughter Is Also Good
Chapter 206
"If you can\'t support yourself, even if you meet a good man, you won\'t have the ability to keep him."
The others nodded thoughtfully at her words.
Seeing that the atmosphere had become a bit too serious, the older girl changed the subject: "Let\'s talk about something more cheerful. Now that we\'re in Jiangnan, we can see the sky screen too."
"In the future, we won\'t have to go to places with live broadcasts to find out what Miss Gu said. We can see for ourselves what the future looks like."
As they talked about various aspects of the future, Xue suddenly said excitedly:
"Oh, by the way, did you notice the skincare stores that appeared when Miss Gu was shopping at the mall today?"
The others replied:
"Oh yes, I saw them. They looked really nice. We should pay more attention when we watch the live broadcast next time, to try and learn some tips from the future."
"Huh? Where? I didn\'t see them."
All the people from the past were looking forward to the next day\'s broadcast. The following day, when the sky screen opened up in the sky again, they all hurried out of their houses. Some even brought lounge chairs to lie on the street and watch.
Some merchants immediately saw a business opportunity and started selling sunflower seeds and tea on the streets.
In the broadcast, Gu Sang came to a chain fruit store, selected some fruits, and asked the staff to package them in a basket.
"Hello, that will be 208 yuan in total."
Gu Sang opened her QR code and scanned it against the scanner in the store, and the payment was made.
As Gu Sang walked out of the fruit store, the people from the past who were watching for the second time were all curious.
"Hey, did the divine lady pay?"
"Is it possible that things are free in the future? Or did I miss it, and the divine lady actually paid?"
At this moment, a merchant who had already learned about some aspects of future live broadcasts explained to these people:
"The thing in the divine lady\'s hand is called a mobile phone. The money is first stored in a bank, which is like what we call a money house. Then the phone will show how much money you have."
"When you need to buy something, you just swipe your phone on that thing we saw earlier, and the phone will automatically deduct the money."
"Then the bank will transfer the money to another person."
"This is how payment is done in the future. They rarely carry cash now, just using phones to swipe and pay."
Someone timidly said, "I still don\'t understand."
The merchant replied, "It\'s okay if you don\'t understand. You\'ll get it after watching a few more times. Look, each time the divine lady broadcasts, it takes a long time. If anyone gets thirsty, you can buy some tea to drink slowly... We have tea, sunflower seeds, plums, and more..."
As the merchant was hawking his wares, they saw Gu Sang go to the neighboring flower shop, order a bouquet of champagne-colored roses, and then take a taxi to visit someone\'s home.
The merchant called out, "What beautiful flowers! Divine lady, why are these flowers this color? Could you tell us the formula? I\'m willing to pay for it."
Someone else asked:
"Divine lady, do you in the future also place such importance on etiquette? Bringing so many things when visiting someone\'s home."
Gu Sang replied, "This is courtesy, it\'s not excessive."
"Our future is indeed more open-minded. Some ideas that you might find shocking are basically known and accepted by everyone here."
"But each of our changes is an update, meant to make our lives better. It doesn\'t mean we\'ve abandoned all etiquette and become uncivilized."
The car sped along the road, showing the people from the past the high-rise buildings, the bustling crowds, the endless stream of traffic. Every frame made the ancient people try to keep their eyes wide open, not daring to blink.
Everything about the future was amazing, and there were so many women!
Women could be seen shopping everywhere on the streets.
Oh, there were even women driving cars, how cool!
"What, what is that? Is that a live broadcast too? Divine lady, does your world also have husband and wife broadcasts?"
When the car arrived at a busy commercial street, it encountered a red light and joined a long queue of vehicles.
Someone immediately noticed that there was a huge screen in the square, with a male and female host conducting a live broadcast.
Gu Sang looked outside and said:
"No, this is a television outside the shopping mall. The two people are partners, colleagues, not a married couple."
"They are hosts, interviewing about hot news topics."
"Female host? Wow, women in your future can do so many things. They can even be on TV like men, and they don\'t have to be married to appear on TV together."
What amazed the people from the past was that they could appear on TV together and seemed to have such a good relationship.
In ancient times, this would definitely have been the subject of gossip.
Whether married or not, apart from being close to one\'s own husband, women were expected to avoid other men as much as possible, preferably not even looking at them.
But in modern times, a man and woman could actually be partners, colleagues.
They looked so in sync with each other, was this really normal?
The car stopped at the entrance of a residential complex. Gu Sang sent a message to Beautiful Elder Sister, and after a while, Beautiful Elder Sister came down personally to meet Gu Sang.
"Sang Sang, I forgot to ask yesterday if you have any dietary restrictions. Can you eat seafood?"
The two took the elevator up. Beautiful Elder Sister swiped an elevator card, and only then did the elevator start to ascend.
"I don\'t have any dietary restrictions, I can eat anything."
Beautiful Elder Sister lived in an apartment complex where each elevator served only two households, and without an elevator card, strangers couldn\'t operate the elevator.
After arriving at Beautiful Elder Sister\'s home, Gu Sang changed into slippers.
A well-behaved little girl, about four or five years old, came over: "Hello, auntie. Would you like warm water, hot water, or a soft drink?"
"Warm water is fine, thank you."
Beautiful Elder Sister smiled and took the flowers: "Thank you, these flowers smell wonderful."
The Little Girl brought over the warm water and said politely, "Here\'s your water, auntie."
The little girl\'s good manners and thoughtfulness melted the hearts of the people from the past.
Especially since this little girl had a rosy complexion and looked like a little princess, beautiful and well-behaved. This was truly a warm little cotton-padded jacket.
"Look how polite other people\'s children are. You don\'t even open your mouth to greet relatives when they visit. How did I end up with such a clam for a child?"
"Watching this makes me want to have a daughter. I already have a son, maybe the next child could be a sweet daughter like this, to make a perfect pair."
"What are you looking at? What\'s so good about daughters? They\'ll just end up belonging to someone else\'s family. If anyone wants my three daughters, I\'ll give them away for free. They\'re just money-losers. You should give me a son instead."
"Hmph, what\'s the use of raising them so well? They\'ll just run off with someone else in the end. \'A grown daughter can\'t be kept at home.\' It\'s better to save that money for our old age instead."
