Chapter 85 The Troubles of Happiness (Additional update)
(Additional update for the book 20210301106460054746 monthly ticket, thank you for your support)
Xia Yuhong is a little dizzy, it is too unreal, Zhu Xuefeng’s family is in good condition I paid a lot, and I heard him say that the money was returned to me, but there was no need to pay for the leather shoes.
In surprise, Zhu Xuefeng had already handed over a pair of beautiful leather shoes. He didn’t even need to look at the shoe size. Zhu Xuefeng knew it, size 37.
Xia Yuhong took the leather shoes stupidly, her face flushed. This bad guy didn't say anything, just dragged him over. He didn't express his position yet, but he had already bought the shoes and paid for them.
Xia Yuhong ran out of the department store holding the shoes on fire. Her face was still burning. It was embarrassing to give herself a pair of leather shoes in front of so many people. Don't let anyone you know see it.
Starting from this year, tickets are required to buy leather shoes in the capital. Zhu Xuefeng received a few tickets, but he couldn’t buy them at all. One person is entitled to one ticket per year. Only formal employees are given tickets, not family members. They can’t wear rubber shoes or sneakers. Tickets are required, but the number of tickets for leather shoes is not so small. After all, everyone is given out tickets for other shoes.
"Wait for me, you are running really fast. Write a ticket and you will be gone in the blink of an eye. Take this. If there is any problem, you can come and exchange it."
Zhu Xuefeng from the department store The building chased me out. I just went to issue an invoice. As a voucher, I can exchange it if there is any problem. The quality awareness is still very good.
Now, without the endless questioning and nagging, Zhu Xuefeng was beautiful. Xia Yuhong began to worry about how to explain when she went home. These shoes were like a bomb, but she couldn't bear to part with them. They were given by this dead man. I have to think of a reason quickly.
He knew that Zhu Xuefeng had made some money now and was not short of money, but how could he explain it to his parents? He was very annoyed last time, and his father kept asking in a roundabout way...
The two pushed the cart back. Xia Yuhong was a lot quieter along the way. She just followed behind her with her shoes in hand, listening to Zhu Xuefeng nagging about her design ideas...
Looking at Zhu Xuefeng blankly, he knows a lot. Did he always go to the library to learn? Don't fall behind, you have to run together.
Passing by the supply and marketing cooperative, Zhu Xuefeng bought a lot of candies, peeled off a big white rabbit, and tried to put it in Xia Yuhong's mouth. He was glared at hard, and then he took it and ate it.
Also, in broad daylight, with people coming and going, this action is a bit frivolous. Zhu Xuefeng is still not used to it, so he has to pay attention.
He stopped talking and came to the alley in silence. Xia Yuhong was not as brisk as before and went home hesitantly.
When I was approaching the yard, I saw Xu Damao blocking a girl in front of me from a distance. The two were talking about something. The girl seemed to want to hide but didn't. Zhu Xuefeng didn't recognize them and couldn't understand their relationship. It was probably Xu Damao flirting again.
I said hello to Uncle Liu who was sitting next to me. Uncle Liu seemed to have a good harvest today. He collected his car and came back so early. After Zhu Xuefeng had dealt with him several times, he was not very familiar with him. Young Master, now we always say hello when we meet.
In the past few days, I have only focused on the modification of the engine, and I have not paid much attention to what my brothers and sisters are doing at home. I saw several shelves at the door, filled with sheets and clothes to dry.
It seems that the two little guys have dismantled several kangs. They can’t wait to use new ones, but it is summer and they can’t sleep under a thick new quilt. Zhu Xuefeng shook his head. Wry smile, these two gadgets.
At least Xia Yuhong won't dislike it when he comes again. He has planned it several times, but his younger siblings have taken care of it. It seems that he is too lazy to do it.
Love of labor should still be praised.
"Eldest brother is back."
Zhu Xuefeng nodded, both of them were sitting in the middle room, holding Zhu Xuesong's junior high school textbook in their hands, they seemed quite conscious.
"It seems that you two have been very busy today. You even cleaned up the kang. Come and reward two white rabbits each. It is worthy of praise. Keep it up!"
"Big brother, big brother, You looked at our hands, they were all red. The uncles and aunts in the yard wanted to help, but we didn’t let them. My second brother and I washed them.”
Zhu Xuemei stretched out her little hands and washed them like this. There are many things, but the little hands are clean, and the white is red, which is very beautiful. "Well, my little sister has worked hard, and my brother has worked hard too. How about we eat noodles tonight? I'll do it."
"Okay, okay!" Both kids said I'm very happy. Zhu Xuefeng's noodles are good, but they are rarely made. The main reason is that there are not enough dried noodles. Whether you can buy them depends on your luck. Just having a ticket is not enough.
I haven't been doing anything in the past few days. The two little guys are taking care of me. Today is a small reward.
The steamed buns and steamed buns at home were gone. Zhu Xuefeng could not make steamed buns or steamed buns. During this period, the steamed buns were made by his younger siblings. There was still a lot of rice, cornmeal and sticks.
I cut some meat I bought and soaked some mushrooms in hot water. After a while, the braised noodles with mushroom minced meat sauce were ready. I blanched some green vegetable leaves and gave each person an egg. It was very delicious. It’s simple, tastes good, and nutritious, even the pickles are omitted.
In fact, Zhu Xuefeng made several bottles of mushroom sauce. There were too many kinds of mushrooms in the space. He also gave two bottles to Uncle Zou. This time it was not spicy at all.
When it comes to making noodles, Zhu Xuefeng still likes to use freshly made noodles. He always feels that fresh ones are better. He can just keep the sauce and use it as pickles. The braised noodles must be freshly made.
After dinner, he coaxed his younger brothers and sisters out to play as usual. Zhu Xuefeng was collecting the clothes hanging to dry at the door and saw Uncle Zou chopping wood.
"Uncle, are you preparing firewood for winter? It's a bit early, right?"
"It's getting late. I just have to do some of this work when I have time. It's okay this summer. I'll grab it in autumn. But everyone, we can’t afford to go out to look for firewood in winter. Now we’ve chopped it and let it dry for a few months before we can use it.”
It’s just July, so we have to prepare for the winter. The older generation. People really live a clear life and do everything in their head.
…
Every household has to burn a kang in winter, otherwise it will be impossible to bear it. The wind blows into the house, and only the kang is warm. In winter, it is difficult to even eat a meal. Get on the kang.
Coal is supplied to the residents, but it is not enough. Besides, earth heating cannot solve the heating problem at all. Heating has to be considered. Zhu Xuefeng has planned it, but he doesn’t know if it will be useful when the time comes. This is the first time he is the head of a household, so he has to worry about it. That's a lot.
I chatted with Uncle Zou for a while. I guess the coal plan at home is not enough. Do we have to find opportunities to go into the mountains to collect firewood? The hills nearby are probably bald, so if you want to collect firewood, you have to run farther away.
Besides, it’s still early, and the matter at hand is not finished yet. The college entrance examination is in ten days. Let’s review it again, especially politics, don’t forget it then.
After feeding the chickens water, Zhu Xuefeng returned to the north room to read.
…
"Big brother won't go to school today."
The three brothers and sisters were simply eating breakfast. Now breakfast is no different from that in every household, just a lot of eggs. Have some porridge, sometimes steamed buns, sometimes steamed buns. My younger brothers and sisters are sensible enough to eat whatever is available.
"Well, I'm not going. If you have anything to do, just say it. Don't be nagging. Brother is not unreasonable. Tell me what you two want to do."
Zhu Xuesong He raised his head and glanced at his elder brother, hesitantly.
"Brother, this, this is a new movie released today. It's about catching bad guys. I want to take my sister to see it. We still have money in our hands, so we don't need to give it. We still have tickets."
