Chapter 153
Sihe Academy.
The Jia family.
After dinner, the family of three sat down to chat.
Most of the time, Jia Zhangshi was talking, while Jia Gensheng and Jia Dongxu, after years of training, had long since become qualified listeners.
They would definitely applaud when it was time to applaud.
When it was time to cheer, they would definitely not fail to cheer.
"Mom, I have something I want to tell you."
"Look, I'm about to go on a matchmaking date and will be getting married soon; shouldn't our family buy two big items?"
Jia Dongxu was very nervous.
When making the request, he didn't dare to look at Jia Zhangshi.
Jia Gensheng was expressionless.
He was the one earning money for the family, but Jia Zhangshi held the economic power.
Without Jia Zhangshi's approval, he didn't dare to spend a single cent; Jia Dongxu wanting to buy big items could only ask Jia Zhangshi; what he said didn't count at all.
"Buy what buy?"
"Our family is marrying a wife for her to serve our family, not for her to enjoy life."
Jia Zhangshi slapped the table.
Opposing it on the spot.
"Mom, if we don't buy big items, can you at least buy me a new set of clothes?"
Jia Dongxu looked at the clothes he was wearing.
They were all old clothes from last year.
There were ugly patches.
"Whether you wear new clothes or not, aren't you still you?"
"I think you just want to be vain."
"Not buying!"
Jia Zhangshi still didn't agree.
Jia Dongxu had no choice and looked at Jia Gensheng with pleading eyes.
Jia Gensheng sighed; there was no other way.
"I think we should just buy him a new set of clothes!"
"After all, he's going on a matchmaking date; if he doesn't dress well, the girl might not like him."
"At most, we'll buy it for him now, and we won't buy him any for the New Year."
Jia Gensheng persuaded him, biting the bullet.
"Hmph, you shut up!"
Jia Zhangshi glared at Jia Gensheng.
"Fine, I'll buy you a set of new clothes, but it's agreed: if we buy it now, we won't buy any for the New Year; don't ask me for any during the New Year!"
Jia Zhangshi agreed.
Jia Dongxu smiled very unhappily.
He didn't want to buy his New Year clothes in advance; he wanted to buy an extra set, but since Jia Zhangshi had spoken, he didn't dare to disobey.
The Yan family.
After dinner, the family chatted together.
"When Matchmaker Zhang came out of Wan Ping'an's house, she was holding a big watermelon, and her face was smiling so much that the wrinkles were more numerous than a chrysanthemum!"
Yan Jiecheng described it with gestures.
"Wan Ping'an's big watermelon sells for more than a yuan, maybe even more than two yuan; Matchmaker Zhang got a big watermelon for free, of course she's happy!"
"She will definitely introduce a good partner to Wan Ping'an!"
Yan Fugui guessed.
When Matchmaker Zhang was asking about Wan Ping'an's information, he had already guessed it.
Wan Ping'an's life had completely improved!
"Dad, Mom, we were saying, who will Matchmaker Zhang introduce a partner to first?"
"Wan Ping'an, or Jia Dongxu?"
Yan Jiecheng thought of a question.
"Good question, I guess she will introduce to Wan Ping'an first."
"You all know Jia Zhangshi's character; she is too stingy and definitely won't give Matchmaker Zhang much money."
"Wan Ping'an is different; just based on that big watermelon, and just based on Matchmaker Zhang smiling with wrinkles all over her face, he will definitely satisfy Wan Ping'an first."
Yan Fugui analyzed.
The Yan family nodded one after another; the analysis made sense.
They didn't know that Wan Ping'an had rejected Matchmaker Zhang's proposal to find a partner; if he hadn't rejected it, the scene they analyzed would definitely have played out.
The next morning.
The animals had just woken up.
Animals like Deaf Old Lady, who were lazier, woke up and lay on the bed, not getting up at all.
"Meat fragrance?"
"It's that damn Wan Ping'an again; he's eating meat again, early in the morning, what meat is he eating?"
Deaf Old Lady complained.
Wan Ping'an released poison at meal times every day, so she had to change her own dietary habits, staggering her meal times with Wan Ping'an's to avoid not being able to eat.
Breakfast.
Wan Ping'an was eating rabbit meat fried rice!
It tortured Deaf Old Lady again.
After breakfast, he directly cut open a big watermelon, and while eating, he started to set up his stall to continue selling watermelons!
Sun Tiezhu didn't come.
He set up another stall outside the Sihe Academy to sell Wan Ping'an's watermelons.
Only Wan Ping'an was in the Sihe Academy.
"Damao, you come sell it!"
"Just like Sun Tiezhu, I'll give you one yuan a day, plus a watermelon."
Wan Ping'an was a bit annoyed.
He didn't like this kind of repetitive physical labor that didn't require technical skills.
He liked things that required technical skills.
"No problem!"
Xu Damao was overjoyed.
Giving him one yuan a day, plus a big watermelon, was equivalent to giving him more than two yuan, or even more than three yuan.
Working for a month, it was more than his father's monthly salary.
The He family.
"Seeing Shazhu, you stand still for me."
"I'm asking you, did you let Yushui go buy watermelon yesterday?"
He Daqing's expression was serious.
Seeing Shazhu could only nod; he couldn't lie, too many people in the courtyard saw it, and as long as He Daqing asked, he could find out the situation at the time.
"Is there something wrong with your brain?"
"Or is it that everyone calling you Seeing Shazhu has actually made you stupid?"
"Aren't you afraid that Yushui would get beaten up if she went over there?"
He Daqing slapped Seeing Shazhu on the head.
Seeing Shazhu was also very aggrieved; the idea was proposed by Yi Zhonghai.
But he didn't dare to say it; if he said it, He Daqing would definitely hit him harder.
He Daqing had warned him many times to stay away from Yi Zhonghai and Deaf Old Lady, but he hadn't done it, so he could only grit his teeth and accept it.
