Reborn cannon fodder ex-wife, the chief is a henpecked husband
Chapter 31 Qi Jiajia Wants to Free Meal
Seeing this, an older brother said, "I won't let my daughter treat money like that. That's fifteen dollars!"
"Yeah, but looking at her outfit, these must be the hot-selling items in the supply and marketing cooperative, right? I never saw these when I went to the supply and marketing cooperative in the county before. I guess fifteen yuan is just a drop in the bucket for her."
Shi Yanning only cared about whether the girl could check out. There were so many eyes looking at Qi Jiajia in the store.
Qi Jiajia was secretly annoyed. Her mother only gave her ten yuan to buy a gift. Who knew that it would cost so much money to buy food in such a small place!
Qi Jiajia didn't know what to do for a moment. Shi Yanning asked with a concerned expression: "Comrade, what's wrong? Our store's price is not wrong. You can calculate it again."
Qi Jiajia was just about to leave using the excuse of feeling unwell, but Zhao Juhua, who was watching, had already disliked her for a long time. She hated this condescending attitude the most.
Zhao Juhua spoke bluntly:
"How can she be unwell? She just doesn't have enough money to pretend to be rich! She is so young, but she pretends to be rich outside. She doesn't even take a piss to look in the mirror. Who the hell does she think she is?!!"
Other villagers who noticed this were also whispering.
"You can't afford it! I want all the ones you just bought. It's really embarrassing!"
"That's right. You don't have enough money but you still come to buy things. Are you here to cheat me?"
Qi Jiajia felt so ashamed that her face turned red and white.
Ever since her brother became the battalion commander, those who once looked down on her have become polite to her. Her family has also become wealthy in the village, and matchmakers are almost knocking on the door of her house.
Just when Qi Jiajia didn't know what to do, a familiar voice was heard.
"Jia Jia, why are you here?"
When Qi Jiajia heard the familiar voice, she quickly turned around and called out, "Mom, why did you come just now?"
Everyone turned to look at the door and saw a woman who was dressed very elegantly.
Her hair was combed neatly behind her head, she wore a dark blue slim-fit cotton coat, a pair of neatly cut black straight pants, and a pair of high heels. She looked like someone who was not to be messed with just standing there.
The noise of the crowd suddenly became much quieter. Qi Jiajia walked over, took the woman's arm, and was about to cry:
"Mom, this shop is simply a scam. They charged me fifteen dollars for just a few cakes!"
Li Danniu's eyes widened. "What? Fifteen dollars?!"
An ordinary family can eat for a month with just 15 yuan!
She immediately looked at Mr. Huo at the counter. When Mrs. Huo saw this, she immediately pulled Mr. Huo behind her and stared at Li Danniu.
"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! How can you, a little girl, throw dirty water like this! We have a certificate! It's stamped!"
Mrs. Huo had already cursed Qi Jiajia in her heart. Nowadays, just one sentence could leave an entire family without food to eat and eventually starve to death!
Li Danniu glanced at the certificate hanging on the wall and said contemptuously, "What's wrong with the certificate? Can you represent the country and the government just because you have the certificate? Who knows if your certificate is real or fake?"
Shi Yanning glanced at the crowd who were obviously incited, thought for a while and said:
"Auntie, this is a real stamp. Please look, the stamps below are from the provincial capital and the town's health department. Our store can stand up to scrutiny! Our prices are not random, they can stand up to scrutiny, and the ingredients are sufficient, no more, no less! We are not deceiving you!"
Shi Yanning turned around and looked at Li Danniu and Qi Jiajia. Today was the first day of opening, and someone was already looking for trouble.
"You want to slander without any reason. Do you think there is something wrong with the county health department that issued the certificate? Or do you think there is something wrong with the county economic department? We are just making a little processing fee. The policy allows it. Don't you think it's not okay?"
Jin Dahai's identity is extraordinary, and all kinds of certificates have been issued to her long ago. The documents are complete and stamped with a bright red official seal. Who dares to question it!
There were also literate people in the crowd who took a closer look and said, "It is indeed a certificate issued by the county and town departments at all levels."
"Wow, did you see the opening gift that just came to deliver to this store? It was a car!" The man said as he gave a thumbs-up.
"Wow! This store has some really strong connections!"
"The county department has issued a certificate, so what's there to worry about? Buy it!"
When everyone heard this, they thought it made sense and stopped watching the show and turned to choose what they liked.
"This lotus cake is really pretty. I'll buy it for my partner. It's only 1 cent a piece. I'll buy a few more."
"This puff pastry has malted milk. I'm going to buy some for my grandson. Now it's only 20 cents, and you can get malted milk. It's a good deal!"
"This yam cake tastes sweet but not greasy, and is easy to digest. It is perfect for me and my old man."
Li Danniu saw that everyone was scrambling to grab things from this store, and there were even certificates issued by the county. She didn't know what her daughter bought. Those people clearly said it only cost one or two cents, so how could she spend thirty yuan!
Li Danniu glared at Qi Jiajia, and angrily took out money from her pocket, three big unity notes, and handed them to Mr. Huo, saying threateningly:
"My son is the battalion commander, and my son-in-law will be the regiment commander in the future. I have to bear the loss. You won't be so lucky next time! Jiajia, let's go!"
Mother Huo took the money and said in unison with Father Huo: "Thank you for coming. You are welcome next time."
Huo's mother didn't expect that the son of the mother and daughter was actually a soldier, and an officer! How could the officer's son-in-law be so blind to fall in love with this family?
The episode ended quickly, and Shi Yanning didn't take it to heart at all. He just went into the backyard, looked at Mr. Huo who was drinking tea with carving tools at hand, and said, "Grandpa, the gift box is sold!"
Mr. Huo put down his teacup, his eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief: "Really...really sold?"
Shi Yanning nodded, with a smug smile on his face: "Yes, Grandpa! Dad packed it himself in the box you made today."
Old Master Huo almost fell down. His eyes widened and he muttered to himself, "Three... pieces? Just such a small thing?" He picked up the box in his hand and looked at it carefully, as if he wanted to find some clues from it.
Old Master Huo still couldn't believe his ears, but when he saw Shi Yanning so happy, he couldn't help but feel happy too.
He said excitedly and with emotion: "I didn't expect that I, an old man, could still make money, hahahaha!" As he said that, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
Shi Yanning felt that the old man was very kind. Seeing that Old Man Huo was smiling so happily, he also felt very happy.
Shi Yanning was worried that the old man was too tired, so he quickly said, "Grandpa, you don't need to do it every day. Just take the time to make a few occasionally! For us, this is called limited edition. The rarer it is, the more precious it is."
Mr. Huo nodded, not quite understanding: "Okay, Grandpa will take care of his health. This is very easy for me and not tiring."
He is just a rough man. He was able to marry Jinlan because of the friendship between his fathers. He doesn't know how to do business, but he listens to his wife, and his wife says she listens to her granddaughter-in-law.
Shi Yanning greeted Mr. Huo with a smile, then turned and ran towards the kitchen.
At this time, the kitchen has been transformed into a small handicraft workshop, which is filled with various tools and ingredients.
Among them, Gu Jinlan was concentrating on studying a recipe, which was the cake-making method that Shi Yanning taught her.
Gu Jinlan read the recipe carefully, prepared each ingredient meticulously, and then stirred them together gingerly.
Slowly, the color turned white and finally turned into cream. Gu Jinlan used a strange-shaped tool to pour the cream in and squeezed it out bit by bit.
This tool was given to her by Shi Yanning, and no one knew where it came from.
Soon, a rich aroma came from the mud oven built nearby.
This should be what Ningning meant by "it's done", right?
Gu Jinlan opened the "oven" and inside lay a soft pastry, the fragrance was overbearing!
The fragrant aroma lingered throughout the yard. According to the recipe Ningning gave, the prototype of the cake came out.
Gu Jinlan carefully separated it with a handkerchief, brought it out, and then slowly wrapped it with cream. Gu Jinlan learned to paint when she was young, and she made the cream into beautiful shapes one after another.
The sound of Shi Yanning and Gu Jinlan talking and laughing in the kitchen could be heard from the house.
When Mr. Huo heard this, he smiled with satisfaction and once again lamented that he had found an incredible granddaughter-in-law. Finally, he complained every day: "Stupid grandson!"
