Chapter 259 The Jia Family is Running Out of Food
Zhang Xingwang watched the little girl patting her belly with satisfaction. After a while, she pestered him for snacks again. Her little mouth was as sweet as honey. She hugged his arm, rocking him and calling him brother.
I suddenly felt that no matter how hard the life was, I couldn’t let my child suffer. I couldn’t bear to let such a cute and obedient girl down.
I originally wanted to give her two candies, but then I remembered that she had been banned from eating candies by my mother and my readers. I looked at the little girl awkwardly, as she pouted whenever she disagreed with me.
He could only carry her to his room, take out a bunch of grapes that he had saved from "under the bed", and watch the little girl cheering.
After thinking about it, I stuffed a few more strings under the bed, so that she wouldn't think I was a dream. The little girl is five years old now, so I have to be more considerate...
He sorted out the extra things in the space, put the food hidden under the bed into the space, and temporarily put the extra things under the bed before going out.
After coming out, I saw that my fourth sister had come back without me noticing and was whispering in the little girl's ear.
When he noticed Zhang Xingwang coming out, a flattering smile subconsciously appeared on his face, and then he continued to eat the grapes on the table with the happy little girl.
Wang Xiulan was staring at the grapes on the table in a daze. As far as she remembered, grapes could only be seen at the end of June. It was not even May yet, so how could there be grapes, and such a big bunch at that.
After questioning the little girl for a long time without getting any clue, he looked at his son and asked:
"Xingwang, where did you get these grapes? How can there be grapes in this month?"
Zhang Xingwang thought, if I wasn't afraid that you would ask too many questions, you could have eaten it last month. He quickly put on an expression that said, "It's no big deal," and said nonchalantly:
"It's just some grapes. This is a reward from my boss because he sees that I work diligently and responsibly.
It is said that this is a specialty brought back from the south by a friend on a business trip. Some of the friends I helped deliver the game to have also had it. When I met them a few days ago, they said they would bring some back for me. "
"My son is really talented. The grapes in the south look no different from those here. How come they ripen so quickly?"
Zhang Xingwang looked at his mother who was eager to learn, and patiently taught her some knowledge about southern fruits and the differences between the north and the south.
Wang Xiulan was obviously interested and listened very seriously, asking a few questions from time to time.
Then, looking at his dizzy mother who went to rest early, he nodded helplessly.
I seemed to see a fleeting heavy expression on Fourth Sister's face out of the corner of my eye, and then I took a closer look at Fourth Sister who was eating grapes with a smile on her face, and I felt that I must be seeing things.
He told a few people that he would be back later or might not come back at all, and then he refused the eldest sister's protection and went out.
I'm a bit full after eating today, so I took a walk to digest the food and go to the yard rented by Uncle San.
I had not walked far when I heard the voice of Jia Zhang scolding her son in the middle courtyard. After listening for a long time, I realized that it was because of the noise during dinner. Today, a pot of pork offal cooked by an aunt caused an uproar in the middle courtyard.
Before I got there, I ran into a few people who were eavesdropping. After all, the weather was hot and everyone started to go out for a walk after dinner.
The hustle and bustle at the Jia family’s house is not fun to watch, but it’s still okay to eavesdrop. Who doesn’t have a desire to learn? If you don’t listen, there’s nothing to talk about when you pick vegetables tomorrow.
They nodded knowingly as a greeting, and Zhang Xingwang followed everyone else's example and pricked up his ears to listen.
Jia Zhang's voice was quite loud and could be heard clearly outside the house. It seemed clear from Jia Zhang's words that she was not happy with her son. They were just having a normal dinner, but the atmosphere changed when they smelled the meat from the other side.
First, Bang Geng was unhappy. Since the ration was reduced, not to mention meat, even oil could not be seen. How could the young master endure this? He immediately raised his head and said to Jia Zhang:
"Grandma, I want to eat meat..."
Then the story began like this. Jia Zhang glared and said to Jia Dongxu who was also sniffling:
"Did you hear that? Your son wants to eat meat, and you don't want to think of a solution?"
After hearing this, Jia Dongxu felt aggrieved. My son wants to eat, and your son also wants to eat. What's the use of wanting? However, although Xiao Jia was a bit reckless, he still had some shame.
He turned his head and looked in the direction of Yi Zhonghai's house, and replied to Jia Zhang with a smug look:
"Mom, Master's wife is not on good terms with our family now. Besides, she has two children. I am too embarrassed to visit her. It would be so embarrassing.
How about I go and try to find my master, he should have a copy too, I'll see if he can bring it back."
"Can't you use your brain? It's strange that Yi Zhonghai can eat it. Judging from your master's wife's personality, I guess she won't eat it herself.
I asked you to go find that conscienceless guy to buy some food, but you still can't bring yourself to do it. As a grown man, are you worthy of your family?"
Seeing Jia Dongxu's difficult expression, he sighed and continued:
"If you want to eat meat, you have to start from your master?"
"What's the plan?"
"What a bullshit plan. You've only been with that old idiot Yan Bugui for a few days, and you've learned all these useless things. You can just go find Yi Zhonghai and tell him the truth."
"Tell the truth? What are you going to say?"
"Ah... I'm telling you that you have no future and are a fool. No matter how much your master teaches you, you can't pass the third-level worker exam. Your salary is not enough to spend every month. You have an old mother and two crying children at home. Let him think of a solution for you."
After hearing this, Jia Dongxu felt sick. His toes almost broke his shoes. He tried to make a final struggle and asked with a red face:
"Mom, are you talking about me? I'm not as bad as you say. I'm considered to be very motivated in our courtyard!"
"You may not be awake yet. You are just talking big. There are only a few people in our family who don't have rations. If the rations are reduced, we will be out of food in two months at most."
"What if the master doesn't help me? What if the master can't do anything?"
"You stupid thing, if you just tell him a few more times, he will find a way..."
Seeing Jia Dongxu's puzzled look, Jia Zhang instantly felt very angry. Why was this stupid fool becoming more and more like Liu Haizhong?
He was too lazy to waste his words, so as not to waste the steamed buns for dinner. He would be the one who was hungry in the end anyway. He then skillfully brought Jia Dongxu to the photo of Lao Jia, asking Lao Jia to calm Xiao Jia down, and by the way, see if he could get Lao Jia to show him some more tips...
After hearing that there was no movement in the Jia family's house, everyone dispersed. Needless to say, tomorrow's front-page headline will definitely be about Jia Dongxu being a loser who can't support his family. After all, it was the affirmation from his own mother...
Zhang Xingwang felt that Jia Zhang was going to suck Yi Zhonghai's blood. Thinking about it, there was nothing wrong with that. Jia Dongxu said it a few more times, and Yi Zhonghai would not care. Who asked him to rely on others for his old age? He walked and pondered for a while, and slipped out when no one was paying attention.
Banggeng is not happy about this. His grandma is not reliable. Looking at the "horrifying" look from his father from time to time, it seems that he can eat meat. The problem is that he doesn't like fried bamboo shoots with meat at all.
The 6-year-old Bang Geng was already very clever. He quickly ran to the angry Jia Zhang and said to her:
"Grandma, why don't you let my mother go to Zhang Xiaoya's house to ask for a chicken? Mother used to bring back a fish, and Zhang Xiaoya's family has four chickens."
Qin Huairu originally felt that she had been forgotten, and was very sad thinking that she would have to accompany her husband to sleep today. However, after hearing the eldest son's remarks that he was not a good son, she knew that her plan to be a background board had failed...
