Chapter 78: Complete Collection of Medicinal Diets
Xu Youliang thought to himself that it was terrible. As expected, his wife was still irritated by He Daqing's family. What kind of conditions were they? They actually wanted to buy cloth for fifty cents a foot.
Xu Youliang hurriedly pulled Jia Zhangshi aside.
"Xiao Zhang, this cloth is too bright. I don't need it at all. I think the one just now is better. It's suitable for me to wear at work!"
Unexpectedly, Jia Zhang glanced at him sideways.
"Who said I bought it for you? We are both so old, aren't we the same in what we wear? I'm thinking that Dongxu will be looking for a partner soon, so I'll find some good fabric and make him a set of clothes. It will help him be more energetic when he goes on blind dates in the future!"
Xu Youliang, "..."
My goodness, is it easy for me to earn that little salary in a month?
It would be fine if you bought such expensive cloth, but you didn’t even buy it for me!
Xu Youliang realized that his status in Jia Zhang's heart was far inferior to that of Jia Dongxu.
"No, I have to work hard and try to have a child of my own!"
Xu Youliang thought to himself that it was not convenient for him to refute Jia Zhang.
After all, Jia Dongxu is still there.
"Mom, I don't need..."
Jia Dongxu refused indifferently.
However, Jia Zhang said without a doubt,
"Be obedient, this fabric suits you!"
As she spoke, Jia Zhang looked at Chen Xueru.
"Boss, don't just stand there, give us seven feet of this piece of cloth!"
"Um...are you sure?"
Chen Xueru blinked, still a little stunned.
She was at the fabric shop today and had noticed this family a long time ago. They had been in the store for nearly an hour, picking and choosing but unable to decide on anything.
And now, I have to buy this most expensive cloth. I really don’t understand why.
Judging from the way this family is dressed, they don’t look like a wealthy family.
“This is the one!”
Jia Zhang said in a decisive tone.
"Row!"
Chen Xueru smiled helplessly. She was eager to buy more good cloth. She immediately cut seven feet of cloth for Jia Zhang, not a single foot less or more.
Seeing this scene, Jia Zhang was secretly angry, but she also understood that she bought too little cloth and no one would give her a discount...
However, these seven feet of cloth only cost three dollars and fifty cents, and she felt a little distressed. After taking the cloth, she took her husband and son and hurriedly left the silk shop.
"Xiao Zhang, do we need to buy some food and firecrackers..."
Just as he walked out the door, Xu Youliang reminded him helplessly.
"Why buy those!"
Jia Zhang had just spent three dollars and fifty cents, and was feeling bad. When she heard this, she immediately became angry.
"We are all adults, no one will set off the firecrackers even if we buy them. As for food, there are only three of us, so we can just make do with it!"
Xu Youliang, "..."
"Anger value from Xu Youliang +30!"
"Anger value from Jia Zhang +30!"
"Joy value from Chen Xueru +20!"
So, before He Daqing and his family had walked far, they received a wave of reminders in their minds again.
"Congratulations to the host, your emotional value has accumulated to 500, and you will be rewarded with a chance to draw a lottery!"
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the "Chinese Medicinal Diet Encyclopedia"!"
As the voice fell, He Daqing felt that a lot of rich knowledge was added to his mind, and perfect recipes appeared in front of him.
Of course, what surprised him even more was that these emotional values had accumulated so much and were not consumed by this lottery. Instead, they could still be used to expand the space manor.
He Daqing expanded the space manor again without hesitation.
Today, Zhuangyuan has expanded from the original 100 square meters to more than 200 square meters, and its capacity is extremely large.
Next, He Daqing took his family, young and old, to buy some other New Year goods. They were tired after shopping and were too lazy to go home to cook, so they simply had a delicious meal at a nearby restaurant.
When the family returned to the courtyard, it was already afternoon.
"Dad, I want to set off fireworks, I want to set off fireworks!"
As the Chinese New Year approaches, the sound of firecrackers can be heard in the streets and alleys of the city.
As soon as He Yushui returned home, he couldn't wait to take out the firecrackers he bought and play with them.
"go Go."
He Daqing touched his daughter lovingly, then took out a string of whips and handed it to He Yushui.
Fireworks in this era were not as rich as those in later generations, and the only fun seemed to be these hanging firecrackers. But even so, many families were reluctant to set off firecrackers.
Many children take apart the firecrackers and set them off one by one.
Even in nearby stores, they are sold by the piece.
"Come on, Yushui, I'll help you!"
Seeing his sister playing with firecrackers, the seventeen-year-old He Yuzhu also lit a stick of incense in the stove like a child and ran to He Yushui.
Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
In a moment, the sound of firecrackers was heard in the yard.
Hearing the noise, whether it was Yan Bugui's family in the front yard, Liu Haizhong's family in the back yard, and even a big man like Xu Damao, they all ran towards the middle yard.
When they saw that it was brother and sister He Yuzhu and He Yushui, the children's eyes were full of envy.
Yes, these children have seen how He Daqing treated the brother and sister these days.
Not only did He Daqing buy a bicycle for He Yuzhu, but he would also almost always satisfy He Yushui's desire for delicious food.
Now, the New Year is coming soon. Other children are lucky to have a dozen firecrackers in their hands, but He Yushui and He Yuzhu actually took out a whole set of hanging firecrackers!
It's really annoying to compare people to each other!
"Brother Zhuzi, can you let us play too?"
Yan Jiecheng, the son of Yan Bugui, came over with a flattering look on his face. Before he even opened his mouth to speak, he had already stuffed a handful of melon seeds into He Yuzhu's hand.
These children of the Yan family have completely inherited Yan Bugui's ability to calculate, and they are also particularly good at speaking and doing things.
He Yuzhu looked around and felt the envy from the children's eyes. He grinned.
"You want to play? Sure. When we meet next time, just call me Boss!"
"No problem, boss!"
"Hello, boss!"
Faced with the temptation of firecrackers, the Yan brothers didn't care about their face at all. They all bowed and called He Yuzhu "boss".
Even Xu Damao came over, but was kicked away by He Yuzhu.
"Hey, it's just firecrackers, what's the big deal!"
Xu Damao brushed the dust off his butt and glared angrily.
"show off!"
This scene was also seen by the Jia Zhang family who were staying in the west room.
Originally, Jia Zhang was somewhat happy that she had bought a good piece of cloth. However, she felt very uncomfortable when she saw the He brothers and sisters playing with firecrackers and even mingling with the children in the yard.
