Chapter 881: [Excellent children can skip]
What could there be at the small department store at the entrance of the old residential area?
Zhang Baojiang waited in the car for a while and didn't see his wife coming back. Feeling irritable, he also got out of the car and entered the shop, complaining as soon as he opened his mouth: "Why can't you pick something after such a long time?"
The wife was conflicted: "The milk in this shop is only this kind at 69 a box; that Youyou milk that's on sale for 24 a box is gone..."
The boss heard this, and seeing it was a familiar face from the residential area, he "tsk"ed: "Life is good now! That Youyou milk is just a drink, it has no nutrition... not many people buy it, so I didn't stock it. You should buy this Te-X-Su; this milk is good, and it looks decent when you carry it out."
After speaking, he smiled again: "Two boxes are 109. A pair looks good with a large gift bag."
Zhang Baojiang's wife, Wu Mei, curled her lips: Who wouldn't know that Te-X-Su looks decent when carried out? Her son used to drink this all the time when he was in school.
She looked helpless: "Oh, you don't know, our old man just loves that sweet and sour flavor; he doesn't like pure milk..."
Once this was said, the shop boss vaguely remembered something, and his expression couldn't help but become strange—it was hard not to be strange!
Their house was remote, and those who bought here in the early years were mostly people from the towns and counties below. When there are many people, there are many acquaintances, and any gossip or anecdote from the surrounding areas would soon be shared and known by everyone.
Not to mention the small news that "a biological mother was hospitalized, and three children were unwilling to pay the 50,000 treatment fee, causing the old lady to hang herself in indignation, leaving behind 50,000 yuan in small bills," where every element fiercely stepped on the moral concepts left over from people's youth.
Isn't that very solid?
The boss hadn't reacted before, but now hearing this, he suddenly came to his senses and couldn't help but feel disdain in his heart.
"It's not strange, huh? That person you mentioned before actually still has the heart to buy two boxes of milk from me today, saying he's taking it back for the old man at home..."
"Is he trying to serve the old man? He's trying to get the old man to go to heaven so he can get the money!"
At this moment, the words were a bit stinging:
The couple got into the car full of longing, while the shop boss, cracking sunflower seeds, stood at the door and took a look. Turning back, he rushed to a group of people playing cards in the sun next door and said:
Auntie just sighed like that when she received another call from Cai Lan, and on the phone, the other party said hatefully:
"I found out, do you know who spread the news? It was that useless eldest son of his!"
Hiss!
"Sigh, I remember you have an older sister who lives in Qingxi Town, right? Rushing back so suddenly, don't tell me the old man's health is bad too? Hurry up and ask!"
Wu Mei was also angry! When the two sides compared notes, Auntie began to curse with righteous indignation:
The uncle's family over there was exploring how to raise cattle together, and it was really scary without an experienced person to guide them. During this period, they were extremely cautious when feeding forage.
Now that Zhang Wang's family has come over, actually, they don't know many scientific methods either, but there's one point: they do exactly what the cattle boss taught them to do, and let the cattle and sheep eat whatever they want to eat...
You were a bit uneasy, speculating: "You said that one hundred and twenty thousand isn't a small amount! The old man hasn't earned that much in his life, suddenly getting such a large sum, if an old person is stimulated..."
If it weren't for Wu Mei stopping them, they were all prepared to bring their own pot to cook on the river beach.
Zhang Baojiang, who was confused:...???
Looking at the others, although their two legs were uneven at this moment, they were walking on the pasture with a limp, checking the situation of the cattle and sheep one by one, and incidentally carrying a large bucket, preparing to give the dogs an extra meal.
The uncle and aunt were not like Wu Lei; they felt that taking advantage of their niece always made them feel restrained. They only left them for a meal at home once, and after that, they insisted on eating at the mountain canteen no matter what.
"Is that so? Then you children can't let the old man be! Don't be reluctant to spend money; parents are the only ones you have."
The old lady playing cards raised her eyebrows: "That family? Can they repent out of the blue during the holidays?"
Auntie heard people sighing and lamenting that heaven has no eyes, saying that an elderly person who says they're not doing well is really not doing well, and that the unfilial children and grandchildren are coming back to take advantage again... She also asked in confusion:
Wu Lan recalled: "Can't be, right? Last time in the livestream, I saw his spirit was quite good... but it's hard to say!"
The seventh brother, Zhang Baohe, also said: "Big brother, the way you handled this, the old man is in that condition and you still hide it from me; what's your plan?"
Wu Lan thought to herself: That's not my biological father, and his own son treats him like that, what do I have to say?
They were old, and very sensitive to whether their children were filial or not. At this moment, once their gossip desire came up, they couldn't help but inquire about each other:
Just as he was about to change shops to take another look, Zhang Baojiang was thoughtful: "Right! Just buy that Te-X-Su; we haven't seen each other for months, we should let the old man know our intentions."
So he asked you a lot, adding fuel to the fire, and Zhang Baojiang's car had just gone up the slope along the newly paved asphalt road when he received a call from his sister, Baolan:
"Is the old man not doing well?" He turned to look at his wife.
Now, the rumors about Zhang Wang's family were heard by Auntie! Their village was closer to the town, and they knew more people.
His biological father, well, how could he not know! He was the most reluctant to spend money, and couldn't bear to see his children spend money. Once he heard that these two boxes of drinks cost over a hundred yuan, he would probably be afraid that he had no money in his pocket.
If they were related, if something really went wrong, they had to be prepared.
A few days ago, the kudzu powder was sold out, and Zhang Wang's family quickly packed up and went to the pasture side.
In short, when he went over to work, the uncle's family dared to walk and look around the river beach more.
Before Wu Mei on the other end of the phone could despise them, Auntie hit the nail on the head:
Riding a motorcycle every day to bring lunch boxes and food back, the couple ate in the pasture, not daring to leave the people for a moment.
"Don't know what kind of madness they're having, saying Zhang Wang's family isn't doing well, and the couple rushed back specifically, just wanting to serve the old man well again..."
He stepped on the accelerator, and his whole expression became strange.
"That... isn't the child's Uncle Zhang's spirit quite good? Why is it spreading in town now that he's not doing well?"
The couple looked at each other: It's really possible!
"Who is so wicked? Saying people aren't doing well for no reason... He even ate a bowl and a half at noon today!"
"Big brother, you handled this too unethically; the old man isn't doing well and you didn't even say a word, sneaking back with things yourself, what's the meaning of that?"
"I bah!"
And in Yunqiao Village, Wu Mei hung up the phone and her expression was also strange: "Who is so lacking in moral cultivation? Spreading rumors! Isn't Uncle Zhang's spirit quite good!"
If that's the case, we have to hurry! ===== CHAPTER 882 =====
