Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

Alonzo smiled and said, "Okay, sister, I'll buy new clothes for you."

He wasn't short on money. During the holidays, the elders gave him lots of red envelopes. He gave some to his mom to save, and managed the rest himself. If he wanted to buy something, he'd use his own money and even kept track of where it went. Elora bent down and gently pinched Alonzo's cheek, smiling. "If you study hard and listen to me, that will make me happy. I'm just teasing-you don't need to buy me clothes. I have more than enough."

Her closet was full of clothes, many she hadn't even worn yet. She usually wore business suits and only wore casual clothes on weekends. Her mom and aunts loved making her new outfits, even though she didn't need more. They believed a girl should always dress beautifully. It was the same with jewelry. Elora only wore it to special events, but her mom adored jewelry and would always shop for it when she went out, buying pieces for herself and her daughters. Elora had so much jewelry, she could probably open a store. "Sister, I'm studying really hard," Alonzo said. "You work so hard and take care of Angelo and me. I should buy you a new dress. You can't say no."

Angelo chimed in, "Sister, we'll both buy you new clothes together. You'll wear them during the New Year!"

Elora smiled, touched by their thoughtfulness, and lovingly patted their faces. "Since you two are being so sweet, I'll accept. But don't forget, you also have other sisters-your second, third, and more. You can't just spoil me. If you're giving gifts, you need to buy two sets of clothes for each sister." The brothers fell silent, realizing they hadn't thought of that. They quickly calculated their money, wondering if they had enough to buy two new outfits for each sister.
