Chapter 560: I borrowed it with my own ability, why should I return it?

"What is Jia Dongxu so happy about?"

As soon as Li Kailang arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he saw Jia Dongxu walking towards him with a big smile on his face.

"People feel happy when good things happen to them, but what good things can happen to Jia Dongxu?" Li Kailang murmured to himself.

What happened in the workshop would naturally not spread outside. No matter how powerful Li Kailang was, he couldn't know everything.

"Forget it, never mind. We'll find out sooner or later."

Li Kailang was not very clear about Jia Dongxu's activities.

Sha Zhu, who was behind him, saw that they had finally returned to the yard, so he quickly passed Jia Dongxu and hurried home.

After watching Jia Dongxu walking so arrogantly along the way, Sha Zhu just felt uncomfortable in his eyes.

I just want to go home quickly and wash my face with water.

Jia Dongxu did not return to the yard, but continued walking, apparently going to the public toilet.

"Wife~" Sha Zhu called out out of habit.

"Zhu Zi, you're back~" Jin Huainu was processing ingredients in the kitchen and responded when he heard the voice.

Sha Zhu entered the kitchen and watched Jin Huainu prepare the ingredients one by one.

"I told you I would come back and take care of it, why don't you listen to me?"

Jin Huainu said with concern: "You have worked hard in the factory all day, you have to rest when you go home. I don't have anything to do at home, so these are not a problem."

"Go wash your face, it will be fine in a moment."

"Okay." Sha Zhu nodded.

Sha Zhu likes Jin Huainu very much and usually doesn't let her enter the kitchen.

But Jin Huainu understands that Sha Zhu has worked hard, so she lets Sha Zhu cook the final meal, but she will prepare the dishes in advance.

Sha Zhu picked up a thermos, opened the stopper and poured the water into the absorbent basin.

"Is there no water?" Sha Zhu poured the water but no water came out, so he put the cork back on the bottle and found another thermos.

A thermos is a common item in every home, and usually there are two of them, and Shazhu is no exception.

I have Jin Huainu at home, so if I run out of water, he can help me boil it. There is no need to buy another one.

When Sha Zhu was alone at home, he had to boil water every few days.

"Where's the kettle?"

Shazhu searched for a long time but couldn't find it.

"Huaino, where's the other kettle?"

Jin Huainu didn't even think about it: "It's on the cabinet."

Sha Zhu looked around the cabinet, but still didn't see another kettle: "No."

"It's on the cabinet? Can't you see it?" Jin Huainu wiped his hands and came out of the kitchen.

He glanced around and found one, pointing at it and saying, "Isn't it right there? Right in front of you."

"Not this one, this one is empty, the other one." Sha Zhu responded directly.

"The other one is right here." Jin Huainu looked at the place where the thermos was usually placed, but it was empty.

"Oh, that's strange, why isn't he here? Where did he go?"

Now, Jin Huainu touched his head in confusion and looked at the small room.

"Where can I put a thermos like this?" Jin Huainu thought carefully and suddenly thought of something.

"I thought of it. I lent it to Jia Zhangshi as soon as possible. She hasn't returned it yet, so I went to get the thermos back."

Having said that, Jin Huainu went out to ask Jia Zhang for it.

Seeing this, Sha Zhu didn't care and went to the kitchen to light a fire and cook.

"Auntie Jia, are you home?"

Jin Huainu shouted, and Qin Huairu came out, stroking her belly gently.

Seeing that it was Jin Huainu, he smiled slightly: "Xiao Jin, what's the matter?"

"Sister-in-law, I borrowed the thermos from Auntie this morning. Is it finished? I came to take it back. Zhuzi is still washing his face."

"I don't know about that. I'll go return the kettle to you."

"It's troublesome."

Qin Huairu turned around and went back to the house. She looked around and saw an unfamiliar kettle.

The Jia family only had two thermoses, and it was enough for them to use. I have never seen anyone hoarding ten or eight. The extra tickets were all sold.

After all, the kettle is a consumable item and it is easy to break if you don’t hold it firmly.

Jia Zhang was cooking. When she heard Jin Huainu asking for the thermos, she immediately stopped cooking and ran out with a spatula.

Before Qin Huairu could pick up the kettle, he hid it in the cupboard to ensure that no one could see it.

He thought he had done it perfectly, but he didn't notice Jin Huainu standing right next to the door.

She saw clearly every move of Jia Zhang, frowned, and looked at Jia Zhang with hatred.

Jia Zhang said to herself, "What are you returning? I didn't borrow the kettle. We only have these two. How can I ask for one from Sha Zhu's family?"

Qin Huairu couldn't understand Jia Zhang's trick: "Mom, Xiao Jin is right at the door, what are you doing!"

When Jia Zhang turned around, she saw Jin Huainu standing at the door and was immediately embarrassed.

But who is Jia Zhang? How could she give up just like that?

"What are you looking at? There's no kettle here for you. They're all mine."

"Auntie Jia, there's no need to do this. Do you think I didn't see you hiding? Do you really want me to point out where you hid? Aren't you just trying to cover up your mistake?"

Jin Huainu, who attended literacy classes, can more or less say a few idioms.

"What did you see? You saw everything. I don't have your kettle here. They are all mine."

Jia Zhang was still making a fuss, which made Qin Huairu feel upset and ashamed.

"Sister-in-law." Jin Huainu looked at Qin Huairu, hoping she could give an explanation.

But after hearing what Jia Zhang said, Qin Huairu had already made up her mind not to bring harm to Jia Zhang.

"Oh, my stomach, the baby kicked me!" Qin Huairu had a bitter look on her face, covering her stomach where vomiting was not obvious, and walked away.

"Hey, hey, hey, sister-in-law, don't go!" Jin Huainu watched Qin Huairu slip away, and then looked at Jia Zhang who was showing off in front of him.

Without Qin Huairu to get in the way, Jia Zhang was very proud and she was determined to get the thermos from Sha Zhu's family.

I only realized later this morning that there is a huge difference between having one more thermos and one less. I don't have to get up early in the morning to heat the water.

I can finally relax and sleep a little longer tomorrow.

Anyway, Sha Zhu's kettle had been used for a long time, so she just happened to help out and replaced it with a new one. She was doing a good deed.

Jin Huainu's face turned pale, and he stretched out his hand and said, "Auntie Jia, give me back my thermos!"

"What do you mean your thermos? I didn't borrow it and I didn't see it." Jia Zhang glanced at Jin Huainu.

"Auntie Jia, it's just a kettle, not a big thing, not worth much money, there's no need to be like this, they all belong to our neighbors."

"I didn't borrow it, so why are you looking for me?"

"Aunt Jia, I saw you hiding in the closet. There's no need to do this."

Looking at Jia Zhang's expression, Jin Huainu was furious. If Jia Zhang hadn't been in a hurry to ask for the money this morning, she would not have lent it.

Fortunately, Brother Zhuzi wanted to wash his hands, and she realized that Jia Zhang had not returned yet.

"What's going on?" Jia Dongxu looked at the two people arguing.

"Brother Jia, Aunt Jia asked me to borrow a thermos this morning, but she refused to return it to me."

Jia Zhang was still stubborn: "Bah! What do you mean by borrowing? I didn't borrow anything at all! You are just a little girl, don't talk nonsense."

Jia Dongxu looked at Jia Zhang in a domineering manner, which frightened her so much that she turned her eyes away and dared not look him in the eye.

"Brother Jia, I saw it all. My kettle is hidden in the cabinet. If you don't believe me, open the cabinet."

As he spoke, Jin Huainu pointed to the cabinet.

Jia Dongxu was skeptical, but when he opened the cabinet, he found a strange kettle. "I'm really sorry! I didn't notice it, my mother is like that, don't take it to heart." Jia Dongxu returned the kettle to Jin Huainu apologetically.

Seeing Jin Huainu was about to take it away, Jia Zhang snatched it away and put it in her arms: "No! This is my thermos, not yours!"

"Auntie Jia, a thermos is not expensive."

Before he could finish his words, Jia Zhang interrupted him: "It's not expensive, just buy another one, why are you staring at my kettle?"

"Mom! It's just a thermos. If the family is short of one, just buy another one." Jia Dongxu was speechless.

"Then go buy one. There are no tickets at home!" Jia Zhang couldn't help but tell the truth.

But not having a ticket is not the point. There are a lot of them on the black market, and it only costs a few cents to buy one.

The reason why Jia Zhang didn't buy it was most likely that she didn't want to spend her own money.

"Okay, I'll buy it and return it to the owner quickly!" Jia Dongxu couldn't afford to lose face, and people came to the yard one after another to watch the fun.

"No, I borrowed it with my own ability, why should I return it! I won't return it!" Jia Zhang held the thermos tightly and refused to let go.

"Give it back to them!" Jia Dongxu shouted with a dark face.

"Hmph!" Jia Zhang snorted coldly, and leaned sideways to hug the thermos tightly. The thing is in my hand, so it's still my business.

Jia Zhang didn't notice the stick behind her at all. When she heard Jia Zhang's words, "I borrowed it with my own ability, why should I return it?", her eyes were shining with stars, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Jia Dongxu gradually lost his patience: "Give it back to the owner! We don't need this kettle. At worst, I can buy a new one later."

"No!" Jia Zhang shook her head and looked at Jin Huainu: "You have been using this kettle for so long, it doesn't work anymore, go buy another one."

"Puchi!" Jin Huainu laughed speechlessly. He had never heard such a funny joke.

He immediately stopped respecting Jia Zhang: "Jia Zhang, this is my family's kettle. I've grown attached to it. We can decide whether to buy it or not. You don't have to decide!"

"Also, this is my family's property, so it's only natural that you return it to me! Now, immediately, give it back to me!"

"No!" Jia Zhang's brain circuit only thinks about herself. Jia Dongxu has obviously given an answer, but she just won't let go.

"Give it back to them!" Jia Dongxu shouted angrily, "Hurry up!"

Being yelled at in the face made Jia Zhang feel even worse, but when she saw Jia Dongxu with a red face and eyes full of anger, she was choked up instantly and dared not act rashly.

"I'll give it back! Here it is!"

"Hmph!" Jin Huainu took the thermos that was stuffed into her hands. It was originally her thing, and it was her fault that it was treated like this.

Looking at the thermos in her hand, she said, "Jia Zhang, you want a thermos? I'll give it to you!"

boom! ! !
Jin Huainu threw the thermos heavily to the ground.

"I don't want anything you've taken!"

"From now on, don't even think about borrowing anything from my house! I will never lend it to you again!"

After saying that, he walked back home without looking back.

After attending the literacy class for three months, Jin Huainu is no longer the ignorant person he used to be. He has understood a little bit more and behaved more reservedly.

If it was three months ago, I would have already started fighting, so why waste my time talking?

"Humph! You bastard, how dare you turn your back on me!"

Jia Zhang pointed at Jin Huainu angrily and was about to hit her, but when she saw the angry Sha Zhu right in front of her, she didn't dare to do anything.

boom!
Jia Dongxu looked at the crowd gathering and was so angry that he locked Jia Zhang outside the door because so much trouble had been made just over a thermos.

"Dongxu, open the door, open the door!"

"Bah! You deserve it! You're responsible for your own misfortunes!" Jin Huainu gloated.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I don't know what Jia Zhang was thinking. Just for a thermos bottle, she made Jia Dongxu lose face. It's really hard to have such a mother."

"That's right. I've been using this for several years and I still need it from someone else. How can I miss that thing?"

Everyone pointed at Jia Zhang.

Jia Dongxu was so angry that he sat on the table and threw things around. His good mood was ruined by Jia Zhang.

Hearing the noise, Qin Huairu's belly bulged slightly, and she slowly walked out, stroking it.

"Dongxu, what's wrong?"

Jia Dongxu looked at Qin Huairu who looked like she had just woken up, and immediately stepped forward to ask, "I hope I didn't disturb you."

Qin Huairu shook her head gently: "No, what happened to our mother?"

Qin Huairu felt happy listening to Jia Zhang's screams and howling outside the door, and told her not to listen. Now look what she deserved!
"It's okay, don't worry about it. Are you hungry? I'll cook for you now."

"Hmm~" Qin Huairu nodded weakly, and Jia Dongxu immediately went to cook, completely ignoring Jia Zhang who was knocking on the door.

He actually dared not listen to me and teach Jia Zhang a lesson. Who is the one who makes the decisions in this family?

"Old Yi! Please make the decision for me!" After knocking on the door but getting nowhere, Jia Zhang went to find Yi Zhonghai to make the decision for him.

boom!
Without waiting for Jia Zhang to come over, Yi Zhonghai closed the door and the window at the same time.

"Old Yi!" Jia Zhang kept knocking on the door, but Yi Zhonghai didn't open the door even though he was being disturbed.

"You bastard!" Jin Huainu was to blame for this situation, and Jia Zhang was so angry that she wanted to make trouble for her.

"Get out of the way!" Sha Zhu shouted. Jia Zhang looked at Sha Zhu's murderous expression and was afraid of being beaten.

"Humph!" Jin Huainu stood behind Sha Zhu smugly and stuck out his tongue: "Lululu, come to me!"

Jia Zhang slumped down on the ground and said, "Old Jia, why did you leave so early? They bullied me. Even my son bullied me."

"Lao Jia, please come up and find me, I don't want to live anymore"

"Summoning spirits again!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the yard shook their heads, closed the door, and lived their own lives.

"I really don't know what Jia Zhang was thinking. A thermos kettle is not expensive, she can just buy one. Why does she have to get the one from Sha Zhu's family?" Everyone was puzzled.

"It's so noisy!" Li Kailang felt as if needles were pricking his head as he listened to Jia Zhang's screams and howls.

"Among the Thirty-Six Strategies, running away is the best one." Li Kailang hid directly in the planting space and breathed a sigh of relief.

"The world is pure!"

Looking at the vibrant planting space, Li Kailang thought about signing in for a long time.

"System, sign. Forget it, let's accumulate more."

Li Kailang recalled that the last time he signed in was in April, and only one upgrade card fragment was produced at that time.

It takes an average of three months to produce a fragment. It's only May now, so there's a chance you'll get one. There's no need to rush.

"Why not just sign in next year? I still have one. If nothing goes wrong, I can get four next year, and I can upgrade directly."

Thinking of this, Li Kailang made up his mind to sign in again next year.

Then look at the personal panel.

There are not many changes on the skill panel, and the skills such as locksmithing, traditional Chinese medicine preparation, and gambling are still in place.

It’s not that fast for a level 6 fitter to get promoted.

One can achieve proficiency in the preparation of traditional Chinese medicine, but if one's knowledge of pharmacology is just introductory, there will not be much improvement after reading a few books.

As for gambling skills, I have already tried them in Beijing. It would be difficult to improve them unless I could go abroad.

On the contrary, with just a few efforts, the improvement will be significant.

[Qinggong], wrestling, and ghost knife are all upgraded from proficient to mastery, indirectly improving the [Superman] mode.

In addition to improving skills, there is also an increase in wealth.

In the past month, Su Daqiang and others found time to dig up another one, and Li Kailang got more than a dozen gold and silver ingots and antique toys for free.

"The next excavation may have to wait until next year, so we'll have to wait and see."

Next is the autumn harvest. Su Daqiang and others cannot spare the time to do it. This is the work they have to do openly and they cannot give up.

After the autumn harvest, it is almost winter. It is too cold to dig, so we have to wait until next spring.

Overall, there haven't been many changes.

"Cook, cook."
