Chapter 1527: Tearing Off the Fig Leaf
Zhou Anbei, Cao Yi, and Cao Mo's couple made three or four trips before they moved everything up.
Besides tea and pastries, there were also two boxes of Jiang Xiaobai and Jiang Xiaomei, two boxes of iced black tea, including beef, mutton, and green vegetables.
The most eye-catching were two big watermelons, a box of ten-jin muskmelons, and two boxes of two-jin strawberries.
The living room floor was full, and there wasn't even a place to put one's feet.
Deng Yuzhi and Cao Jingsong stood at the kitchen door, and the four of them stood at the room door.
"You child, why did you bring so many things?"
Deng Yuzhi was very happy in her heart; this proved that Zhou Anbei attached great importance to her.
The complaints were also real. With so many things, the wine, drinks, and tea were fine.
The meat could also be placed on the balcony; it was freezing outside, so there was no problem.
But they also brought so many green vegetables and fruits, which couldn't be finished at all, and there was no place to put them; they would spoil in a few days.
Importantly, she went to RT-Mart to buy vegetables this morning, so she knew the prices.
She gritted her teeth and bought two cucumbers, two eggplants, and one jin of long beans.
If it weren't to entertain the future son-in-law, she would be reluctant to spend money to buy them.
Look at what's laid out on the floor now: tomatoes, garlic sprouts, green peppers, and more than ten kinds of green vegetables.
Each one was a full big plastic bag, at least five or six jin, and the heavier ones like tomatoes were over ten jin.
And there were watermelons and muskmelons; she also saw them at RT-Mart, and the price scared her so much she didn't dare to look more.
As for strawberries, she didn't see them, but she could guess just by thinking about it; the price was estimated to be even more expensive than watermelons and muskmelons.
Not to mention cigarettes and wine, just these green vegetables and fruits were estimated to be nearly two thousand yuan.
If you add cigarettes, wine, and other things together, five thousand yuan might not be enough, which was equal to her annual salary.
Cao Jingsong looked at the things on the floor, his face full of worry: "Uncle knows you don't lack money, but you can't spend it recklessly. When you bought them, did you think about whether they could be finished?"
Zhou Anbei said with a smile: "These weren't bought with money."
Not only Deng Yuzhi and Cao Jingsong, but even Cao Mo and Hu Lan were stunned. If so many things weren't bought, where did they come from?
Cao Yi bent down to move the things at her feet, clearing a place to put her feet.
"You know Zhou Andong, right."
Who didn't know Zhou Andong? Wait, Zhou Andong? Zhou Anbei?
Watching her parents, big brother, and sister-in-law all look at Zhou Anbei, Cao Yi said.
"Right, Zhou Andong is Little Bei's big brother, his own big brother."
"Should have thought of it long ago."
After a while, Cao Jingsong shook his head. If it were just that the names Zhou Anbei and Zhou Andong were similar, it would be nothing.
After all, there are too many people in China with the same name and surname, not to mention this was one character off.
But Zhou Anbei was only over nineteen years old this year. To be able to make such a big business at such a young age, there must be someone supporting him behind his back.
Then think about the names Zhou Anbei and Zhou Andong, didn't the truth come out?
Many things are often like this; the distance to the truth is just a layer of window paper.
As long as you poke it, you can see it, but many times, no one goes to poke it.
Or it's that no one noticed the paper pasted in front of their eyes.
Zhou Anbei squatted down to organize the things on the floor with Cao Yi: "My brother set up a farm over there at home. These vegetables, meat, and fruits are all from our own farm.
Before the New Year, half a truck was sent to my brother. When I came out, my mom had already packed them and put them in the car. As for those boxes of wine, including cigarettes and tea, they were taken from my brother's wine cellar."
"You're really honest." Cao Yi looked at Zhou Anbei speechlessly: "Couldn't you say that the cigarettes and tea were bought with your own money?"
"I feel that whether it was bought with my money or not isn't important." Zhou Anbei laughed: "What's important is that these things are what I brought to show filial piety to Uncle and Auntie, that's enough."
"Right, right, right!" Deng Yuzhi finally reacted at this time and shouted at Cao Mo: "What are you still standing there for, hurry up and help Little Bei and Xiao Yi tidy up."
"Ah!"
Cao Mo shouted "Ah," pulled Hu Lan, and the two also squatted down to start organizing.
Zhou Anbei said: "I know there's too much to finish, so I was thinking of letting Big Brother and Sister-in-law take some back. Let Sister-in-law send some to her parents' side too."
Cao Mo, a big man, didn't think that much, but Hu Lan felt warm in her heart.
No wonder people could make such a big business at such a young age. Just based on this attentiveness, ordinary people couldn't compare.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Cao Mo beside her, not to mention this heartless thing.
Just then, a burnt smell drifted out of the kitchen. Cao Yi sniffed.
"What's burnt?"
Deng Yuzhi, who was also helping to organize things, changed her face: "Old Cao, hurry up, the fish is burnt."
Cao Jingsong hurriedly stood up and ran to the kitchen, and immediately heard the sound of water being poured into the pot.
A cloud of smoke drifted out of the kitchen, and the burnt smell became stronger.
Deng Yuzhi also got up and ran to the kitchen: "How is it?"
Cao Jingsong smiled bitterly: "The top half can still be eaten, the bottom half is all burnt."
"Burnt, burnt, it should be quite flavorful, let it be." Deng Yuzhi was also very helpless: "I'll take over the kitchen, you go keep Little Bei company and chat."

Courtyard No. 6!
Zhou Andong was also chatting with the old man. Jian Mingfan walked in from outside and shouted enthusiastically when he saw Zhou Andong.
"Brother-in-law, I missed you to death."
Immediately after, Jian Yue walked in carrying a helmet and wearing a thick military overcoat.
"Brother-in-law, Big Sister!"
Jian Yue took off her military overcoat. Inside, she was wearing leather clothes and leather pants, plus high-top leather boots, looking quite dashing.
Seeing Jian Qiu asked strangely: "You came back on leave in October, why are you back again?"
Jian Yue put the helmet on the coffee table, picked up an apple from the fruit plate, and sat down beside Seeing Jian Qiu.
"Came back for a blind date."
"How did it go?" Zhou Andong said with a smile: "If it works out, let's have a collective wedding in October."
Jian Yue rolled her eyes and said to the old man: "Grandpa, can you tell your two daughters to manage their own sons and stop introducing partners to me.
Look at what kind of things they introduced to me; even a cat would curse them as 'dog things' if it saw them."
"Then you should find one yourself." The old man said with a smile: "As long as you bring one back yourself, they naturally won't introduce them to you anymore."
"Do you believe what you're saying yourself?" Jian Yue sneered: "My sister and brother-in-law's matter is right here. The two of them have already registered, and they are still pushing hard.
And a man like my brother-in-law, how many can compare? But they are still not satisfied, including my big uncle, nothing more than wanting to sacrifice the happiness of us sisters to conduct a marriage alliance and plot benefits for themselves."
In the past, everyone had a tacit understanding about this matter, but today, Jian Yue had extremely heavy resentment in her heart, so in front of the old man, she tore off the fig leaf. ===== CHAPTER 1528 =====
