Clothes make the person, saddles make the horse

After wiping Xiao Xuan clean, Shen Moxi took him over to eat first.

"Here we go, time for food." She sat down with him in her arms and called Song Qi over. "Come eat first. Once we're done, we'll head downstairs."

Song Qi sat beside her, brought her soy milk over, then brought Xiao Xuan's over too and put a spoon out for him.

"Brother Song, you're so thoughtful. I didn't even remember to bring him a spoon. You'll definitely be a good dad." Watching him, Shen Moxi felt her heart swell until it was full to bursting.

"Are you saying you want to have my children, little girl? You just give birth to them. I'll take care of them." Song Qi's eyes were full of smiles.

"Ahem, hurry up and eat. What are you talking about?" Shen Moxi shot him a reproachful look.

Shen Tao and the others finished washing up and came to sit down. Seeing the lavish spread, he looked at her in puzzlement. "Little sister, when did you get steamed buns and fried dough sticks ready?"

"I bought them a couple of days ago and kept them in the fridge. I bought extra so we could have them for breakfast," Shen Moxi said, taking a sip of soy milk.

"You really think of everything, little sister. I've wanted fried dough sticks for ages, but they're so expensive I couldn't bring myself to buy any." Shen Yuan eagerly picked one up with his chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth. "Mmm, delicious. So good."

Wang Xiaoxia took Xiao Xuan from her. "Little sister, I'll feed Xiao Xuan. Go ahead and eat."

Shen Moxi nodded and handed the child to her. Once she finished eating, she needed to get downstairs early and check everything again so nothing was missed.

The two quickly finished breakfast and put their bowls in the sink. Song Qi washed them in no time.

"Big brother, Song Qi and I will go downstairs first to check everything again. Take your time eating. Set off the firecrackers at seven fifty-eight." Shen Moxi washed her hands and wiped her mouth.

"All right, I'll come down in a bit." Shen Tao nodded as he took big bites of his bun.

Shen Moxi went back to her room for the firecrackers and had Song Qi carry them downstairs and leave them by the front entrance, to be laid out later.

The two checked all the clothes again, then took out the calculator and placed the account book on the checkout counter.

Only then did she suddenly remember something incredibly important. Shen Moxi clapped a hand over her face: she hadn't prepared any change!!!

"Ugh." Shen Moxi truly wanted to crack her head open and stuff another brain inside.

Hearing her sigh, Song Qi turned and walked over. "What's wrong?"

"Wah, I forgot to get change." Shen Moxi wrapped her arms around him with a miserable expression.

Song Qi froze. He hadn't remembered either. Since he had never run a shop, he knew nothing about this sort of business.

He patted her shoulder. "It's fine. There's still plenty of time. I'll go get some."

Shen Moxi took out her shoulder bag and put more than half of her ten-yuan notes inside. "Go to the place where we eat to get change. We're fairly familiar with the proprietress now. See how much change she has and exchange as much as you can."

"All right, I'll go now. Check everything else again and see if anything's been missed." Song Qi kissed her forehead reassuringly, wheeled the bicycle out of the little storeroom, and hurried off on it.

"Oh, Shen Moxi, Shen Moxi, you haven't even had a baby yet. Why has your brain stopped working already?" Shen Moxi knocked on her own head, then went to check the other areas.

When Shen Tao and the others came downstairs, Song Qi had just returned.

Seeing him ride back on the bicycle, Shen Tao looked at him in confusion. "Brother-in-law, where did you go?"

"Moxi forgot to get change, so I just went to exchange some." Song Qi pushed the bicycle into the little storeroom and locked the door.

"We didn't remember either. We've only just arrived, and things are still a bit chaotic. We still have a lot to learn." Shen Tao scratched his head.

"Little sister, assign us some jobs. Tell us what we need to do," Shen Yuan called Shen Moxi over.

Shen Moxi picked out several outfits and carried them over. "Big brother, there's an outfit for each of you. Go change first. We're running a clothing shop, so you can't neglect your appearance. That won't give customers a good impression."

"Xiao Xuan should change too. I picked an outfit for him as well. Once we change, we'll be our own models. That way, people will have something to compare against when they look, and they'll want to buy."

They all thought that made sense. Though they were a little reluctant to use the clothes, Moxi had spoken, so of course they would listen. Shen Tao took the clothes and led the others to the second floor to change.

Shen Moxi picked out outfits for herself and Song Qi too, and they went to change as well.

"No wonder they say clothes make the person and saddles make the horse. Brother Song, you look every bit the domineering CEO in that suit." Stars shone in Shen Moxi's eyes when she saw Song Qi wearing a suit.

Broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs. Once she gave him a CEO hairstyle in a moment, that restrained, ascetic look would be more than anyone could take.

The praise made Song Qi's ears turn bright red with embarrassment. He looked at her with a smile. "You look beautiful in that outfit too. The red dress makes you look even lovelier."

"Haha, am I one of those great beauties everyone adores, who makes flowers bloom and passing cars blow their tires? There's really nothing to fault about this appearance. An absolute beauty." Shen Moxi stood before the mirror, twisting this way and that in utter self-admiration.

She bought hairspray, a curling iron, hair oil, and other tools from the system. First, she styled Song Qi's hair into a cool domineering CEO look and sprayed it into place.

Once she finished, she had him face the mirror and open his eyes. "All done. Take a look. Drop-dead handsome, right?"

Song Qi looked at himself in the mirror and nodded in satisfaction. "Yes, it really is nice. It looks great."

"Hehe, of course. Now I'll curl my hair." Shen Moxi sat before the mirror, plugged in the curling iron, and gave herself big waves.

The original owner had fair skin, and since she was young, it was truly soft and fresh. With these big waves and this red dress, she looked like a princess from a fairy tale.

After finishing the waves, she applied a layer of hair oil, then took out her cosmetics and gave herself a very natural light makeup look.

Once she finished getting ready, she stood before the mirror, looking herself over from both sides. The more she looked, the more satisfied she felt. Song Qi came to stand beside her too, looking at the two of them in the mirror.

"We look like we're getting married. What a perfect match," Shen Moxi said with a smile.

Song Qi wrapped his arms around her from behind and kissed her earlobe. "We are a perfect match. I can't wait to get married."

Looking at her lovely appearance, Song Qi felt himself falling deeper. He didn't want to let her go outside at all.

"Little sister? Little sister?" Shen Tao called loudly outside the door.

Shen Moxi came back to her senses, pushed him away, and straightened his clothes. "All right, let's head downstairs."

Song Qi took her hand and walked out. Shen Tao and the others stood outside the door, and a flash of amazement crossed their eyes when they saw the two emerge.

"Wow, little sister? Are you really my little sister? How did my little sister get so beautiful? You look like a big star." That goof Shen Yuan bounded over and circled her, looking her up and down.

"Pfft, I'm not your little sister. I'm only Big Brother's little sister," Shen Moxi teased.

"Ah, brother-in-law, seeing you two come out makes us want to hide in shame. We're all human, so why is the difference so huge?" Shen Yuan sighed, clutching his chest.

"All right, let's hurry downstairs. It's almost time." Shen Moxi smiled and shook her head. Her second brother really was a complete goof.

"Aun... pwetty... pwetty." Seeing that his aunt had become prettier, Xiao Xuan clapped his hands nonstop.

"Would you look at that? Even a tiny little bean like him knows he likes looking at beauties." Shen Yuan tugged lightly at Xiao Xuan's little hands with a laugh.

"Our Xiao Xuan will find a wife as beautiful as his aunt someday too." Shen Tao held his son and laughed heartily.
