Chapter 269 - 101: The Course is Over, Buying Maternity Clothes and a Hospital Bag

Jiang Li blushed bright red, covering her face with her hands and whispering, "We’re in public. What are you saying?"

Shen Yanzhi chuckled. "I just felt the baby move. Guess I should have warned you first."

Jiang Li felt like she couldn’t bear to look, but deep down, she was still quite happy. Shen Yanzhi hadn’t let the coming of their child divide his love for her.

Just as she was about to say something, she saw the sales associate return, pushing a small shopping cart.

She stopped beside them. "Sir, Ma’am, I’ve gathered all the items for you. I was just wondering, will you be breastfeeding or formula feeding?"

Shen Yanzhi answered firmly, "Formula!"

The main reason was that he had done his research. He’d found that breast milk was only highly nutritious for the first few months, after which its value diminished. Moreover, breastfeeding would be exhausting for the mother.

He just wanted Jiang Li to have a peaceful postpartum recovery. As for taking care of the baby, she wouldn’t have to worry about a thing.

All she needed to do was stay beautiful.

Jiang Li looked at Shen Yanzhi in confusion. "Huh? How come you never mentioned this before?"

They had never discussed the topic before, mainly because she had been busy with her classes.

So she was a little surprised to suddenly hear him bring up formula feeding.

Shen Yanzhi replied, "Your pregnancy has been hard enough, so you need to rest properly during your postpartum confinement. You shouldn’t risk developing long-term postpartum ailments for the baby’s sake."

Other illnesses are manageable, but postpartum ailments can last a lifetime and are impossible to cure completely.

Besides, it wasn’t as if they couldn’t afford formula. Why make Jiang Li go through all that hardship?

Jiang Li was a little surprised, but she was quite pleased with Shen Yanzhi’s attitude.

After all, she had planned on formula feeding from the very beginning.

Whether she had a son or a daughter, she didn’t want to breastfeed.

’It just felt a bit awkward.’

Hearing that they would be formula feeding, the sales associate immediately asked, "As for formula, have you done any research on brands? Or would you like me to recommend some?"

’After all, one purchase of formula could cost one or two thousand, and a slightly better brand could run four or five thousand.’

’Judging by the way they were shopping, it was obvious they weren’t short on cash. They’d surely pick the most expensive formula, and her sales quota would be a piece of cake.’

Shen Yanzhi asked, "Do you carry goat milk formula?"

"We do. Our bestseller is the Kabrita Yuebai. It’s 320 for an 800-gram can."

"Do you have any samples?"

’After all, they had to see if the baby would like the taste, how well she digested it, and if it would cause any irregular bowel movements.’

"We do."

After speaking, she glanced around and lowered her voice. "Since you’re buying so much today, I can secretly give you a sample can. If the baby does well with it, you can come back to me to buy the full-sized product."

Jiang Li suggested, "Why don’t we exchange contact information first?"

’She knew that salespeople earned their salary based on commission.’

’Since the young woman’s service was quite good, and they needed the items anyway, why not let her earn the commission?’

"Okay, no problem."

The sales associate took out her phone, opened her QR scanner, and scanned Jiang Li’s contact card before tapping "add."

Once the request was accepted, the associate immediately sent Jiang Li a message with her details for Jiang Li to save.

Jiang Li saved the contact with a note, handed her phone to Shen Yanzhi, and then asked, "Do you offer home delivery?"

"Yes, we do."

"We offer home delivery for any purchase over 1,000."

The items Jiang Li and her husband planned to buy would already add up to several thousand.

Jiang Li nodded. "Alright, let’s ring it all up then. You can just have it delivered."

’She had no desire to lug a bunch of bags around the mall.’

When they checked out, the total came to just over five thousand, which actually surprised Jiang Li.

’She’d thought it would be over ten thousand.’

’After all, it was the largest baby supply chain, carrying big brands with prices that weren’t exactly cheap.’

Jiang Li’s game was also very simple: they would take turns rolling dice against her.

If she lost, she would give Brother Mozi a cash prize equivalent to the sum of the dice.

If Brother Mozi lost, he had to drink.

Shen Yanzhi just sat to one side, fading into the background without offering any opinion.

’After all, it was Jiang Li’s money; she could spend it on whomever she pleased.’

Jiang Li got more and more into the game. After all, when you’re spending millions in minutes, how could you not have a blast?

Meanwhile, the guys drinking with Zhong Mufeng shed tears of envy. ’Why aren’t we married?’

’If *they* were married, they’d be the ones making money today.’

Unfortunately, there were no "what ifs" in the real world.

The private room was split in two, with each group keeping to themselves and enjoying their own fun.

Zhong Mufeng was having a great time playing, and Jiang Li was having a blast spending her money.
