Chapter 20 List

Yan Kui slept until the afternoon.

I stretched on the bed, feeling more energetic than ever before, and got out of bed with a creaking sound.

Standing in the kitchen, looking at the still empty, dark stove, Yan Kui closed her eyes and sighed helplessly.

Holding the list, I turned and walked towards Aunt Song's house.

Yan Kui, with a sweet voice, knocked on the door and softly called out, "Aunt Song, are you home?"

Nobody paid any attention the first time.

Yan Kui called again.

As a result, the blond-haired boy came out of the house with messy hair, yawning and asking, "Who is it?"

"Huang Chengzhi, that is me, Yan Kui."

Huang Maomao looked closely and realized, "Isn't this a fairy?"

Forget about her hairstyle, she rushed forward, opened the courtyard gate, and exclaimed in surprise, "You...you were looking for me?"

Yan Kui softly hummed in agreement: "Yes, I'm looking for you."

Huang Maomao pursed his lips shyly, feeling a little giddy: "Go ahead, whatever it is, I'll agree to anything."

Upon hearing this, Yan Kui immediately took out a list and a stack of hundred-yuan bills from her bag.

"Aunt Song said you could bring it back for me when you go to town."

As he spoke, he stuffed everything into Huang Mao Mao's hands.

Huang Maomao picked up the long list in his hand, confused, and read it aloud: "Instant noodles, biscuits, rice, roasted chicken wings, roast goose, cold vegetarian dishes, X brand shower gel, X brand shampoo and conditioner..."

Huang Maomao was speechless and said, "Miss, can we stop being so picky? I don't have time to choose one for you one by one."

"Forehead…"

Yan Kui was indeed not very familiar with buying daily necessities; the only things she knew how to buy before were clothes, bags, and jewelry…

Slightly embarrassed, he said, "Let me revise it some more. Wait for me, I'll bring it to you as soon as I'm done."

Huang Maomao was very easy to talk to: "Okay, if I'm not here, you can give it to my mom. I'll buy it for you next time I go to town."

After saying that, he returned the money to Yan Kui.

Yan Kui took the list, quickly returned home, tore off a piece of paper from Yan Sheng's old notebook, and started writing the list again.

Yan Kui no longer cares about brands; as long as it works, that's fine. She just writes down the things she needs that are also relatively common.

When she got to the topic of food, she was in trouble again. She didn't know how to cook. Looking at the earthen stove in the kitchen that she had to burn firewood herself, Yan Kui was almost driven to despair.

Since the small refrigerator was still usable, I simply labeled it entirely with frozen food.

…………

Huang Maomao styled her hair in front of the bathroom mirror, waiting for Yan Kui to come over. But Yan Kui never showed up. Instead, her mother returned with a big smile.

"Mom, you're all smiles."

Aunt Song was in a good mood and said, "Your sister called at the village chief's house just now and said she's coming back the day after tomorrow. You can go to town tomorrow to buy some food."

Huang Maomao's mood improved a bit when he thought of his younger sister who had just started college, and he readily agreed: "Okay, I'll go with Brother Yin tomorrow."

Then she remembered something: "Mom, I'll go find Brother Yin first. Yan Kui just asked me to buy some things for her from town. I'll go ask her on the way."

Aunt Song was busy changing her daughter's sheets when she heard that her son was going to find Yan Kui. She took out a hundred yuan from her bag and said, "This is what Xiao Kuihua left here last time. You can go and return it to her."

"Wow, they actually managed to lose all their money. They're really careless."

After saying that, he turned to his mother and said, "Then I'll go now."

Huang Maomao took the money and strode towards the Yan family's house.
