Although the workmanship of the lunch box looked acceptable, he knew that the materials used were not of very high quality.

He also thought that if he had the chance he would replace it with some higher quality wood and rebuild it.

The old lady was a little tempted when she heard it, but when she thought about how she wouldn't actually need it at home, she smiled and shook her head and refused, saying, "Forget it, I have nowhere to put it when I take it home, so you can keep it for yourself."

After saying that, the aunt helped to clean up the dishes on the table and then said goodbye to the two of them.

He Yuzhu helped the deaf old lady to sit down at the dining table, and said with a smile: "Old lady, try this.

Let’s not talk about other dishes today, but this egg soup stewed with Chinese cabbage is very fresh.

Please try it, what's different from usual?"

"Very good. There's no need to say much about my grandson's cooking skills. Even you think it's delicious, so it must be a top-notch dish." The deaf old lady smiled and immediately tried the small half bowl of egg soup that He Yuzhu gave her.

“Yeah, it’s really great.

In this harsh winter, the grandson was very thoughtful to let her taste such fresh cabbage. "The old lady drank it and found it tasted better. She seemed to feel more energetic and said she liked it very much.

"Hahahaha, as long as you like it, I will cook for you every day.

I will stop eating until you get tired of it. "He Yuzhu was very happy, and at the same time felt that the cabbage produced in the small vegetable garden had the effect of strengthening the spleen and stimulating the appetite.

"Don't eat it every day. Vegetables are rare in the market now. Anyway, I can't stew so many eggs every day. The cost is not low." The old lady felt very satisfied and felt He Yuzhu's kindness. She thought it was good enough.

It's fine to do it occasionally, but don't eat too much of it and damage your health or deplete your savings.

After all, eggs are not a small amount of money, so we have to consider the reality.

"Then please enjoy your meal slowly, old lady; eggs are indeed not easy to buy.

I will buy some chickens later, and you can enjoy their eggs anytime you want. "He Yuzhu served her another portion, and the old lady ate with a happy look on her face.

After lunch, He Yuzhu washed the dishes and chatted with the old lady.

At this time, she asked: "I heard you mentioned that you bought a new bicycle for Yushui girl?"

"Yes, old lady, the wedding has to be done before the New Year, and I don't have much money saved.

I borrowed 500 yuan from the old man to add some dowry items for the bride.

After all, Yu Shui is my only biological sister, and I don’t want her to be bullied in her new home. I would feel bad about it.” He Yuzhu said with a smile.

“Well, you think so carefully, which proves that you are really sensible.

But also be careful to exercise moderation.

You should also find a partner and get married, and all these things cost money.

I can't help grandma too much. I haven't saved much over the years, only a few hundred yuan.

But if you encounter financial difficulties, just come to grandma and tell her, I will give you money.

You know, kid," Auntie's words were full of love and understanding.

In the backyard of the courtyard, at the home of the deaf old grandmother.

This old man was listed as a five-guarantee household.

It mainly refers to providing food, clothing, medical care, living security and burial after death.

The community office distributes relief food and tickets every month, as well as a fixed allowance of five yuan.

As for her claim of saving several hundred yuan, although we don’t know the exact amount, it is definitely there.

In his previous life, he would take his grandmother to the Pigeon Market every month to exchange excess bills for pocket money. Sometimes he could get seven or eight yuan, but more often he could get more than ten yuan.

The old lady's life is basically taken care of by the aunt, and the expenses are not high, so it is natural for her to save some money.

But what I didn't expect was that she was willing to lend me the money. Although she said it was a loan, from her attitude, it seemed that she didn't expect it to be returned.

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu's eyes turned red, and he smiled and shook his head and said, "The important things have basically been bought, and the remaining small items can be added slowly.

I still have some money here, so I'll leave the old lady's share. I'm really starving, and I still need the old lady to take care of me."

"Haha, you're quite embarrassed. You're an adult, but you still need an old woman to support you?"

The old lady made an exaggerated expression, which made He Yuzhu laugh uncontrollably.

After they laughed for a while, they saw that the old lady looked a little tired, so he brought her hot water for her to soak her feet, then motioned for her to rest before leaving.

When He Yuzhu left, the old lady still had a smile on her face and was very satisfied with his behavior.

When he got home, he saw a few more lunch boxes on the table, and a small plate of moldy peanuts next to them. They were obviously sent by Qin Huairu again. "Hey, how can we eat these things if they are moldy?"

He talked to himself, not caring.

He must have given the peanuts to Qin Huairu in the summer, and gave them to her sporadically over the past few months. Now the few remaining peanuts have grown hair.

He simply threw away the moldy peanuts, washed the dishes casually, and soaked his feet in warm water before entering his private space.

Hours passed, and the vitality in the space was gradually increasing.

All the crops planted are growing well, and the vegetables are especially bright and juicy, which is extremely tempting.

He dug a piece of soil, scattered the chili seeds he brought from the cafeteria in the afternoon, and then moistened it with his mind. Everything was ready.

As for ingredients such as onions, ginger, and garlic, we also stockpiled some. Although not much, it was enough for daily consumption.

Once the area is expanded and the output doubles, it can even be sold to make money.

“Huh, this space with a flow rate of fifty times is really great. Not only does it grow quickly, but it also has an automatic harvesting function. Even if I accidentally forget, the food won’t rot in the soil.

In addition, it is also necessary to grow medicinal herbs, especially precious ones like ginseng. "

After two years of planting in space, one will definitely be able to harvest a hundred-year-old ginseng. Moreover, with the upgrade of the system, the flow speed of the internal space-time can be increased. By then, even if it is a hundred-year or thousand-year-old ginseng, it will only be an increase in time cost.

Don't forget to plant some fruit trees.

No matter what kind of fruit, it can be grown here. The only difference is the temperature and moisture. But this is not a problem. After entering the space, all the properties of the fruit will automatically appear.

In the future, ripe fruits can be automatically stored in the warehouse.

Speaking of the warehouse, He Yuzhu's mind moved, and he took out the materials directly from the space. In an instant, a huge warehouse appeared before him.

Adjust the flow of time to 0, and the perfect state will be presented.

Things placed in the warehouse can maintain their original appearance no matter how long they are kept, which far exceeds the preservation function of plastic bags or refrigerators.

After arranging everything, he remembered that he had not signed in today. After completing the sign-in, he received an extra 100 gold coins.

When leaving the space, He Yuzhu felt a little tired, and soon after, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The next morning, He Yuzhu woke up naturally.

When I was carrying my things to wash up, I found that Qin Huairu had already started washing her face.

When she saw him, she immediately said, "Zhu Zi, why are you here so early? Oh, I have two things to say.

First of all, your sister Qin Jingru changed her mind and said she didn't want to spend time with you anymore, so she went home by herself yesterday.

Secondly, I brought the fried peanuts yesterday and you were not at home.

Maybe she went to see her grandma. Did you meet her? "

He Yuzhu originally wanted to make a few sarcastic remarks, but after thinking it over he decided not to.

The bitter reality of the times made him realize that although no one appreciated moldy peanuts, there were still many people who were truly hungry.

So he smiled slightly, nodded and said, "I see, Sister Qin, you took the trouble.

Regarding your sister, I talked about this in front of you two the night before and asked her to think it over carefully. Now that she has decided to leave, it’s fine. We are not destined to be together.

Sister Qin, you don't have to worry too much. "

Seeing Qin Huairu's slightly embarrassed and sad expression, he understood that she was afraid of offending him, so he took the initiative to comfort her.

Qin Huairu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great, I'm glad you're not angry.

The lunch box I brought last night was really liked by Gun'er, the kid. He also said that the things Uncle He brought back were especially delicious, and he liked you the most.

Hearing this, He Yuzhu couldn't help laughing.

Why would that boy Guner say such a thing? What more could he expect?

"If you like it, keep it. But, Sister Qin, I've thought about it and I won't bring a lunch box with me from now on.

I am already a level 6 cook in the factory, with a monthly salary of nearly 50 yuan, plus a 2 yuan subsidy, my income has exceeded 50 yuan.

With so much money, you need to be careful about your reputation. If someone finds out, it could be more trouble than it’s worth.”

So I will never bring a lunch box home again, I think I need to make this clear to you first. "

Qin Huairu was stunned when she heard this. What would they do if Shazhu didn't bring a lunch box? Could she support the family with her meager salary of 27 yuan a month? She also had to pay for the tuition of her three children, give Jia Zhangshi 5 yuan a month to buy medicine, and save 3 yuan for her old age.

Wouldn’t this mean we would be in danger of starving?

"Silly Pillar..."

Suddenly, Qin Huairu burst into tears and was extremely anxious.

"Hey, Sister Qin, what are you doing? Stop crying, or people will think I'm rude to you." He Yuzhu was at a loss. In his life, he was most afraid of seeing women cry, so much so that last time because of his girlfriend's crying, he willingly emptied his savings and even owed a lot of foreign debts.

In the end, he had two hard years, his situation was extremely miserable, and he was just like a little fool.

"Even so, you are bullying me!"

In this yard, He Yuzhu felt disgusted by Qin Huairu's words.

If something really happened between them, this would undoubtedly be a joke in a love story, but he had never even touched Qin Huairu, and she said such things, which made him very uncomfortable. He felt as if he had returned to the ignorance of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.

His face suddenly changed, and the temperature around him seemed to drop by several degrees.

"Sister Qin, things can be messy, but words cannot be said carelessly.

Those who know the situation will understand that there is nothing shady between us, but those who don’t will think that I am being unreasonable and bullying a widow.”

When it comes to "widow"

Qin Huairu was immediately frightened by this word. She had never seen He Yuzhu treat her like this before.

"Silly, I..."

She originally wanted to explain, but He Yuzhu turned around and went into the house without any courtesy, took a bath with a basin of cold water, then closed the door and went back to his room.
