Chapter 975 975. Where do the family members go to eat?
Party Secretary Xiao Zhu shook his head: "It's okay. My grandfathers are rich, and they often provide me with subsidies when they retire. They also pay the rent, so I just pay it first."
"That's good." Ulan felt relieved, and then asked: "Then let's invite them to the mountain canteen for dinner. It's worth charging a few hundred yuan a month."
She lamented: "I am already quite old, so I will feel more at ease if I save more money for retirement."
Xiaozhu branch secretary:…
She thought to herself that my grandpas don’t even need our children and grandchildren to worry about taking care of themselves in old age.
But what came out of his mouth was - "The monthly subscription is 10,000 yuan per family, can you come to our house to eat?"
“That won’t happen, that won’t happen.”
Before Ulan could speak, the seventh cousin spoke first: "Ten people will come in suddenly. This is another table. Everyone will come here when the pig is being slaughtered, and there is no room for us to sit here."
Not to mention that if he had to cook for ten more people, his kitchen would be too busy.
This is a problem. The large dining room of Song Tan's house can seat 30 people. In the summer, three of Professor Song's students and her grandma and grandpa were all there, so it was not too crowded.
The problem is, my relatives are also coming over!
Ten people here, where to squeeze — hey!
She suddenly thought: "The family members you are bringing will go to the cafeteria to eat, and my grandpas will eat here, okay?"
Ah this.
Ulan was stunned.
Song Sancheng was also puzzled: "Isn't it appropriate to leave the family members to eat in the mountains?"
“Why is it inappropriate?” Party Secretary Xiao Zhu said, “It’s all the younger members of the family who have brought me experience. The food on our mountain is not bad at all, and I’m not aggrieved at all.”
Alas, little Du Ge, his dedicated security guard, should feel aggrieved! During the pig-killing feast, she picked out large pieces of meat for him!
The whole family has decided this. The old Song family has been collecting cigarettes, wine, skin care products, etc. from her throughout this year, but they can no longer say no.
Even Song Sancheng muttered: "Your family is also very surprised that there is nothing wrong with bringing up your younger generation. They have to take them to the countryside to gain experience... Can you gain experience by just killing a pig?"
Xiao Zhu Party Secretary: ...ah, how do you explain this? She was about to say something, but saw that Wu Lan had already revealed a meaningful expression:
“I can tell that Xiao Zhu’s family is not ordinary people.”
Xiao Zhu Party Secretary: Ah, is this obvious? I should have known I wasn't lying just now.
Ulan said to the confused Song Sancheng:
"Her family must be very rich. You don't understand. Nowadays, children from rich families have to do some research since they are in elementary school. Generally, they organize trips within the province, better domestic ones, and those with better conditions. What kind of summer camps are there in the world?”
“There’s nothing strange about taking us to the countryside to learn more about it. What a fuss.”
Her analysis was very accurate, and her conclusion was completely contrary to the evidence. Party Secretary Xiao Zhu was very impressed. Looking at Song Sancheng again, he indeed had an "understood" look on his face. He nodded and said:
“I’ll just tell you where I’ve seen studies and stuff… I watched the Immortal Cultivation City last night, and the male protagonist was beaten to death and reborn when he was studying…”
Xiaozhu branch secretary:…
…
In the next two days, Ulan led people back and forth to clean up the dormitory - the aunts in the village had been doing the cleaning, so it was not difficult to clean up. It was just a matter of arranging some new things. Only in the choice of curtains, she looked down on the kind of double-layer blackout curtains that Song Tan chose...
“It’s so comfortable to bask in the sun. Why should I cover it?”
"There are poles here. I also have old coarse cloth sheets from my store. They are quite big. Can't you just drill a few holes and put them on? They are bright and thick, and they can keep out the cold in winter."
Song Tan couldn't understand: "Why are you here if the curtains don't block the light? How can you sleep when the sun shines in so early in the morning?"
Ulan couldn’t understand this even more: “Have you ever slept in at home every day?”
Songtan is stuck.
Really not!
She has never even slept in!
Swiping my phone in the first half of the night, practicing late at night, running around the mountains in the early morning, and sleeping deeply for three hours in the second half of the night... I woke up to another day full of energy.
Wu Lan looked down on the young man's laziness: "It's cold and cold this winter, so I go to bed at eight or nine in the evening. Who can sleep until noon? That's too much sleep." "
Not to mention summer, there is also an afternoon nap.
But Song Tan really didn’t want to use sheets to wear curtains, so he said with difficulty at this moment: "We are us. There will be many young people coming to the city by then, what if we just want to sleep in?"
“How is that possible?” Ulan stood by the window of the dormitory and looked out. Opposite was the bleak mountain top in autumn and winter, and at the bottom of the mountain was their family’s pond.
"Although Dabai has moved to the river, this area is still his territory. Every day he takes the goose and swims twice in the pond early in the morning - haven't you seen his voice? ? We can hear it at home, how can anyone fall asleep like this?"
“Besides, whether it’s the canteen on the mountain or our house, the food will be gone if we don’t hurry up. With so many people, we can’t leave food for everyone, we have to have a place to eat.”
“Can you guys sleep without eating?”
What Wu Lan said made sense. Song Tan thought about it over and over, but couldn't find a reason to refute it!
After much thought, she had no choice but to take a step back, humbly and sincerely: "Mom, you are right, I will listen to you no matter how you clean it up."
But this time it was Ulan's turn and couldn't bear to part with it: "It would be a waste to have such a good bed sheet like mine hang through several holes... Do we have to use this pole? We can't pull a wire with an iron clip on it like our old-fashioned way. Clamped?"
Song Tan was shocked: "Mom! Your curtains are so perfunctory. How can I charge you 1,000 a month?"
It was Ulan's turn to pause: "Oh, you had reminded me earlier that we charge rent - 1,000 is not cheap. Dr. Xiao Guo initially rented a house in the city, and old houses in the city center cost about 1,000."
She was very upset: "You have to pay for this, so you can't be so perfunctory...Have you ordered the blackout curtains you just mentioned? Hold on tight."
Hurry through the cabinet again: "Have you bought all the mattresses? I think you are not used to sleeping on hard beds, so you need to buy a few."
Ms. Wulan's seamless transition from front to back was so smooth that even Song Tan was amazed. At this moment he joked:
“I bought a mattress and curtains, and then rented them for a month and then left. There will be no income in the future.”
She actually had no intention of renting a house, but it didn't stop her from teasing her mother with these words.
The next moment, the busy Ulan paused, and then he became proud: "How is that possible! Let's not talk about our own food, just the cooking of Master Jiang on the mountain, and let's talk about whether it tastes good or not!"
Update 2, good night.
