Chapter 730 Chen Miao Wants to Change Fish
Chapter 730 Chen Miao Wants to Change Fish
Not only did Mrs. Tang keep picking up vegetables and fish for Ye Shu, but Zhuang Jingjing and Mrs. Jin also kept urging her to eat more. The bowl in front of her was piled full like a small mountain.
Damn!
Who would have thought that in such a time of hunger, the food in the bowl in front of her could pile up into a small mountain!
Perhaps because they saw that their aunt and uncle were urging their mother to eat, the three little ones did not want to be outdone and shared the boiled sweet potatoes in their bowls with her, saying in their baby voices:
"Mom, eat this! It's so sweet! So delicious! You have to eat more! Only then can you grow fat!"
Eat more and gain weight, this is what she usually says when she advises her children to eat more.
Unexpectedly, one day she would hear them use this sentence to persuade her.
Ye Shu was so moved.
The result of eating all these things is naturally that you will feel very full!
That night, some people were happy, but many others were unhappy.
Chen Miao in the backyard of Courtyard No. 2 is one of them.
The next morning, Ye Shu just got up. Because it didn't snow, the sky was clear, which was rare. Although the temperature was still very low, the sunny weather made people feel happy.
Ye Shu was in a good mood and practicing boxing in the yard.
Suddenly, a voice rang out beside him: "Comrade Ye Shu, you can also box? I really didn't realize it! You're really good at it!"
I knew it was Chen Miao just by the voice.
Ye Shu did not stop and continued to punch without responding.
Chen Miao looked at her fierce moves and could not see any pretense at all. He couldn't help but think to himself: No wonder, when they were queuing to buy food that day, Huang Da from the security department couldn't get any benefit from her!
This woman is really capable!
Ye Shu finished a set of punches and then turned around to see her still standing there. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
Chen Miao smiled, took two steps closer, and said, "It's like this, I have something I'd like to ask you for a favor."
Ye Shu looked at her without comment.
Chen Miao looked at her, then looked in the direction of her home, meaning that they should go inside to talk?
Ye Shu understood, but pretended not to understand and did not move.
He simply said, "Help me? My abilities are limited, and I may not be able to help you with everything. Please tell me first, what is it?"
Chen Miao felt a little uneasy and hesitated, but seeing that Ye Shu didn't seem to have much patience to wait for her, she decided to leave without saying anything.
So he quickly said, "I...well, I just want to ask, can you spare one of your fish for me? I'll pay you the same amount as you paid!"
Ye Shu was actually not very surprised, as he had guessed it a little.
But at that moment, I couldn't help but laugh: "How much money do you spend as much as I spend?"
It’s not that she cares about these few cents or dollars, she really doesn’t care.
I just find this guy's little tricks ridiculous.
She also laughed:
"Why don't you go to the garrison to register? It seems that you don't have to pay directly for registration there. It will be deducted from your man's salary and allowance. Isn't that better?"
If you feel bad about spending the money you’ve earned, then won’t you feel bad about spending the money you haven’t earned?
Chen Miao's expression became somewhat awkward, and the smile on her face could no longer be maintained. She laughed awkwardly twice:
"Well, I... I was thinking, we live in the same yard, with the front and back yards, and we're all neighbors. We should help each other and understand each other, right?"
Ye Shu nodded: "You are right."
Chen Miao's face lit up: "Then you..."
Ye Shu continued, "We are all neighbors. I understand you, but who understands me?"
Chen Miao frowned.
Ye Shu continued, as a reminder to her: "We collected snow water before. Do you understand that it's not easy for us to use water?"
Chen Miao's face changed drastically, and after a long while, he managed to utter a few words: "We are all neighbors, there is no need to be so petty, right?"
Ye Shu: "I can be generous, but only to people who are equally generous. You think I'm petty, that's because you're also petty."
After saying that, he ignored her, opened the door and went home.
Change fish?
no way!
Chen Miao's face turned pale and blue, and he was so angry that his breath was stuck in his throat. He couldn't recover for a long time!
Ah!
After all, isn't it just stingy?
Chen Miao returned to the backyard angrily, but her youngest son Zhou Xiang was still whining, "Mom, I want to eat fish too! I want to eat fish! I want to eat fish!"
Zhou Hao was older, but no different from his brother in this respect. When he saw her, he asked, "Mom, when are we going to eat fish?"
Chen Miao was annoyed. He glanced at a rag, picked it up, and slammed it on the table:
"Eat, eat, eat! All you care about is eating! Why didn't you tell me you wanted to eat when your dad was home? What's the point of telling me now? Where can I conjure up fish for you?"
Zhou Hao: "Don't those families up front have fish? Lots of fish! Can't they spare one or two for us?"
Zhou Xiang: "I want to eat fish, they have so much fish!"
Chen Miao covered his mouth and scolded him in a low voice:
"Stop howling! Do you have any shame? You're crying like this just for a little food! Isn't that what I always teach you?"
"Okay, okay, stop crying. I'll cook white rice for you tonight, okay? I'll also make some stir-fried cabbage with lard. If you don't cry, mommy will make it for you!"
She was half stern and half coaxing, and finally she managed to stop the two children from crying loudly, leaving only small sobs.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then Zhao Jinhua's voice rang out: "Sister Chen, are you home?"
Chen Miao quickly responded loudly: "I'm here, what's up?"
Zhao Jinhua: "Oh, it's okay. I just came back and I thought I heard your children crying. What happened? Aren't Haohao and Xiangxiang always very well behaved? I rarely heard them cry before!"
Chen Miao stopped the two children from crying with his eyes, walked to the door, opened the curtain and went out, saying:
"Well, little kids, they always act naughty sometimes. They just soiled my washed clothes again, so I scolded them."
Zhao Jinhua didn't doubt him and nodded: "Then talk to him nicely. Your child is very obedient and sensible. Don't be so harsh!"
Chen Miao didn't want to continue arguing with her about this, so he changed the subject and asked, "Where are you from so early in the morning? Did you go shopping for groceries?"
Zhao Jinhua laughed very happily, or rather, heartlessly.
She held the basket across her arm forward, lifted the blue cloth covering it, and then, lowering her voice but unable to conceal her joy, said:
"I went to line up to get my fish! Didn't I register yesterday? I got a notification this morning saying I could go get them! I got two! Look, aren't they huge!"
"Why didn't you go? Hurry up, it's first come, first served. If you're late, they'll be gone!"
