Chapter 743 743. Everyone’s thoughts
Song Hongmei has been selling egg pancakes at a stall for several years. She buys the sauce on the egg pancakes wholesale.
She has accumulated a lot of glass and plastic jars over the years, and they are all locked in the narrow bicycle garage in her old neighborhood.
Now that I have brought two or three here, it is nothing at all.
On the other hand, my son Zhu Lingqi is a little embarrassed:
“Mom, what can we buy on the way home?”
Otherwise, it would be an empty basket, a plastic bag, and a large glass jar, which would really make me lose my temper.
Song Hongmei thought about it and said, "I have to buy it. Your grandpa said that his share should also be given to Tantan's family. In fact, I shouldn't take these things. Tantan's food is delicious. If you eat two or three bowls each of us later, we can't survive this day." "
When he said this, his eldest uncle Zhu Jun felt very distressed - for the same reason. But we can’t blame them. In fact, what Tan Tan gave us was really delicious. Why couldn’t we have a way to have both?
He had no choice but to grit his teeth and said, "Da Mei, when you cook the rice later, add more water and cook it until it becomes sticky. Wouldn't it save rice if you eat two bowls in one meal?"
This is a solution, but the aunt was thinking about the price of the vegetables at Tantan's house, and she couldn't help but feel heartbroken: "Why don't you eat it?"
“I’ll bring whatever I see in the garden and set up a stall to sell it. I’ll give them all the money from the sale... What are you looking at me for?!”
“Isn’t our dad going to build a house soon? They have to pay a lot of money. I, I can’t give that much. What’s the value of helping sell vegetables?”
I heard that it was packaged for others, but now that there are so many dishes, I guess the price is too expensive and fewer people are buying them.
The vegetable market over there doesn’t have such a dish yet, let’s try it.
Supposedly, this proposal saves money and worries, so it is a good idea. But the father and son looked at each other, and remembering the tastes they had tasted before, they still couldn't help but want to indulge -
“Forget it, that’s what the Sancheng family wants too. If we don’t take it, they will feel uncomfortable...”
“That’s true.”
Song Hongmei thought about it again and again, and finally could only grit her teeth: "Ling Qi, go to the vegetable market later, and let's cut 20 kilograms of meat first!"
Pork is not expensive nowadays, but 20 kilograms costs 300 yuan!
This is not three hundred yuan, it is clearly a piece of meat from the aunt's heart! It made her look extremely painful when paying.
Getting in the car, he stared at the father and son:
"It's all your fault, why do you have to eat it? Can't I just hold it back!"
"If you can bear it, we don't have to spend so much money today. Just buy 10 kilograms of meat."
Father and son were beaten and scolded as they pleased, but they couldn't let go of the matter of eating anyway. Fortunately, Song Hongmei's temper was also optimistic, so she would mutter for a while and forget it if no one said a word.
Instead, he made up his mind: "Today is the festival, so we won't go to the supermarket to grab food. We will also save 30% of the family for dinner, and we can save another meal."
…
Unlike the aunt, the aunt is busy here, arranging goods for various shops in the city and scattered individual customers, while the couple is still chatting:
“Ulan asked us to come over for dinner today and said that our parents are also here. What should we bring tonight?”
Uncle Zhang Hong thought for a while: "I think these gift boxes are very popular this year. I will pick a few more tonight and bring more."
Yan Ping stayed there every day. Although he did some work, how could their parents not know about that work? It's definitely a bit worse than others.
Besides, the things at Tantan’s house are so expensive, and the child is so tall and strong that he doesn’t even know how much he can eat in one meal!
“Don’t take the gift box. I heard Tantan say that they buy meat and fruits for the engineering team on the mountain during the holidays. I gave her a call and asked her not to buy any fruits.”
"We've finished our work in the afternoon. Let's pack up all the fruits in the store. Those that are in bulk or of a slightly different quality will be taken over." They are doing fruit wholesale, and the bulk ones may weigh one or two hundred kilograms. Today’s fruits are expensive, so it’s not a small kindness.
only…
After thinking about it, the couple looked at each other again: "Didn't Yanping say that he likes the girl from their village? Ulan said that it was probably Dr. Xiao Guo from the village... You said it's a festival, do we have to prepare something?"
As soon as these words were said, the couple were stunned.
What are you preparing for? No experience!
So when it was time to eat at noon, Wu Fang hurriedly called her son:
“Yan Ping, you said you liked that girl last time. What does she like to eat? I’ll bring you a few boxes of fruit. You can give them to others later.”
"No." Zhang Yanping's voice sounded smooth and smooth, without any waves: "Mom, don't bring anything with you. I don't like her now, and I have no worldly emotions."
As long as a person’s mind is full of winter melon and soybeans, he probably can’t even remember that inconspicuous throb at the beginning.
But Wu Fang was confused. She didn't expect that her wonderful daughter-in-law would fly away now!
She wanted to persuade her, but she didn't know how. In the end, she could only hum: "It's okay, Yan Ping, Mom is not urging you... We will talk about it later... Then you see, we are not in love now anyway. , how about we come back and take the exam?"
"It's okay to take the exam. As long as you have a stable job and your salary doesn't matter, your dad and I have saved enough money for you."
Zhang Yanping:…! !
How could this be so? !
He tried hard to find an excuse: "Mom, forget it, I'm not in the mood right now. I'm not in a good mood. Let's take a moment..."
Before he finished speaking, Wu Fang said decisively: "Yes, I read on the Internet that you have to take advantage of the strength of a broken love to learn well!"
Zhang Yanping:…
He took a deep breath: "Mom, please stop talking about this. It's normal for us young people to fall in love, break up and get back together. Why do you have to ask so carefully? I will tell you when there is a situation. By the way, you can have any fruit. Bring some and try something new.”
Wufang looked at her phone and thought about the love-hate entanglements in TV dramas nowadays. She couldn't help but shook her head in distress:
“You said, why is it not as easy for young people to fall in love now as it was back then?”
Here, Zhang Yanping found Song Tan:
“Tantan, what should I do? Try to persuade my mother! There is really no future in the public examination!”
Song Tan looked at Zhang Yanping carefully—
When her cousin first brought her back to the countryside, she was white, fat and weak, but she had a big frame. After this period of labor, Zhang Yanping is actually not that strong anymore, and his figure can even be said to be that of a standard muscular man—
Except it’s too dark.
And somehow, when I was fat, my facial features were friendly and kind, but when I lost weight, they became angular, just like those who were swept away and eliminated in the policy...
She said sincerely: "Brother Yanping, don't worry, just say that with our image, you won't be able to pass the public examination, right?"
Everyone has misunderstood Auntie! Auntie is here to save Tantan money! This is from last night!
Have you ever seen the bicycle depot? In very old communities, there will be a row of narrow houses used to lock bicycles and motorcycles (after all, bicycles were also big items back then.)
I have a young man next to me who has been taking the civil service examination for two years. During the interview, people said that his first impression was that he looked like a corrupt official...
