Chapter 703

Song Hongmei had been selling egg pancakes for many years, and the sauce brushed on the pancakes was all bought wholesale.

Glass jars and plastic jars had been saved up for so many years, all locked in the narrow bicycle shed of her old residential area.

Now that she had brought two or three of them, it didn't count for anything at all.

Her son Zhu spiritual energy, however, was still a bit embarrassed:

"Mom, what should we buy on the way back?"

Otherwise, with empty baskets, plastic bags, and small glass jars, her face really couldn't hold up.

Song Hongmei thought it was true: "We have to buy some. Your grandfather said your share should also be given to Tantan's family—actually, he shouldn't have taken those things; Tantan's family's things are delicious. If we go back and eat two or three bowls each, how will we live our lives?"

Once that was said, Aunt's husband Zhu Jun also felt heartache—that was the logic. But they couldn't be blamed; it was really that what Tantan gave was indeed delicious, why wasn't there a way to have the best of both worlds?

He had no choice but to grit his teeth: "Damei, when we cook later, add more water and make it stickier, so that eating two bowls a meal can save rice?"

That was a way, but Aunt thought of the price of the vegetables at Tantan's house, and couldn't help but feel heartache again: "Or maybe we shouldn't eat them."

Thinking about it, Yan Ping changed his mind:

When this cousin was first brought back to the countryside, he was fat, white, and soft, with a large frame. After working for this period, Song Hongmei was actually not that strong anymore, and her figure could even be said to be a standard muscular woman—

"It's all your fault; why did you have to eat? Couldn't I have resisted!"

He tried hard to find an excuse: "Mom, forget it, I'm not in the mood now, my emotions aren't good, let me calm down for a..."

Song Hongmei:...!!!

After getting in the car, she glared at the father and son:

She said sincerely: "Brother Wufang, you don't have to worry; with our image, you can pass the civil service interview, right?"

And over there, Song Hongmei found Song Tan:

Besides, Tantan's family's things are so expensive, and the child is tall and strong; who knows how much he'll eat in one meal!

Unlike the aunt, the aunt on the other side was busy, arranging to distribute goods to various shops in the city and scattered retail customers, while the couple chatted:

"Taking the civil service exam is also fine. As long as your work is stable, the salary doesn't matter; your dad and I have saved some money for you."

It's just...

How could it be like this?!

Wufang stays there every day; although he did some work, can we as parents not know what that work is? It must be a cut below others.

"Don't take the gift box; I heard Tantan say they also bought meat and fruit for the construction team on the mountain for the holiday. I'll give her a call, don't buy fruit."

The vegetable market on her side doesn't have such vegetables, so let's try it.

Theoretically, this proposal saves money and has no worries, which is quite good. But the father and son looked at each other, remembering the taste they had tasted before, and couldn't help but want to indulge—

Prepare what? No experience!

So when eating at noon, Yan Ping hurriedly called his son again:

The father and son took the beating and scolding; anyway, eating couldn't be compromised. Fortunately, Zhang Yanping's temper was considered optimistic. After muttering for a while, seeing no one responding, he let it go.

"I'll just pull whatever is in the garden and set up a stall to sell it. The money earned will be given to them... why are you looking at me?!"

"Isn't our dad about to build a house? They have to pay a lot of money, I, I can't give that much, is helping to sell vegetables worth anything?"

And Yan Ping felt a lump in his heart, never expecting that his good daughter-in-law would spread her wings and fly away!

And for some reason, when she was fat, her features were approachable and very gentle, but now that she had lost weight and had sharp angles, she looked just like those in the policies who were sweeping and removing...

This wasn't three hundred yuan; it was clearly digging meat from the aunt's heart! Making her expression extremely painful when she paid.

Except for being a bit too white.

Cao Liangyi thought and thought, and finally could only grit his teeth: "spiritual energy, go to the vegetable market first later, let's cut 20 jin of meat first!"

The couple pondered and looked at each other: "Didn't Wufang say he liked the girl in their village? Until Wu Lan said it was estimated to be the village's Dr. Guo... You said for this holiday, shouldn't we prepare something when we go over?"

"No." Song Hongmei's voice sounded steady, without a ripple: "Mom, don't bring anything; I don't like you anymore, and I don't have any worldly emotions."

"If you could resist, we wouldn't have to spend so much money today; buying 10 jin of meat would be enough."

"After we finish our work in the afternoon, let's pack up all the fruit in the warehouse; those that are loose or have poor quality, let's take them all over."

Uncle Zhang Hong thought for a moment: "I think those gift boxes this year are quite popular; let's pick a few more tonight and bring more."

"Tantan, what should we do? Find a way to persuade my mom! Taking the civil service exam really has no future!"

Cao Liangyi:...

I heard it was contracted to someone else, and now there are so many vegetables; it's estimated that the price is too expensive, and fewer people are buying.

Before the words were finished, she heard Yan Ping say decisively: "No, I saw it on the internet; you have to take advantage of the heartbreak to learn well!"

Anyone whose mind is full of winter melon and soybeans probably can't think of that inconspicuous heartbeat from the beginning.

Yan Ping looked at his phone, thinking about the love and hatred in TV dramas nowadays, and couldn't help but shake his head in distress:

"You said that when young people fall in love nowadays, why isn't it as simple as when we were there?"

They are doing fruit wholesale; packing up the loose ones would probably be 100 or 200 jin. Nowadays, fruit prices are expensive, so it can be considered a big gesture.

"That's true."

Nowadays, pork prices aren't considered expensive, but 20 jin would cost 300 yuan!

Wanting to persuade something, she didn't know how to persuade, and finally could only hum and haw: "It's okay, Wufang, Mom isn't urging you... we'll talk later... then look, anyway, you aren't dating now, why don't we come back and take the civil service exam?"

Once that was said, the couple was stunned.

He took a deep breath: "Mom, stop saying those things; it's normal for young people to break up and get back together, why do you have to ask so carefully? I'll tell you if there's a situation. By the way, bring some fruit casually, just to taste something fresh."

"Wufang, what did you say the girl you liked liked to eat? I'll bring you a few boxes of fruit, and you can give them to her later."

Instead, he made up his mind: "Today is a holiday, we won't go to the supermarket to grab vegetables. We'll leave 30% for dinner at home, and we can save another meal."

Song Tan looked at Song Hongmei carefully—

"Forget it, it's also the intention of the 30% family. If we don't take it, they will be sad..."

"Until Wu Lan asked us all to go over for dinner today, saying Mom and Dad are there too; what should we bring tonight?"
