Chapter 67 New Home Progress
Today is the first day in the new home, and Yu Xiangwan made arrangements for the second day.
"Tomorrow we are all going to the county town to do some shopping and buy everything we need!" She waved her hand.
Shopping always makes people happy.
Yu Xiangwan couldn't help but look forward to it.
[You must be careful when buying things on weekdays and use them sparingly so that you can buy enough at once tomorrow! ]
[Although the consequence is that I may not need to buy anything for half a year, it’s still very nice! ]
Lu Yingzheng: ...
So in her eyes, shopping is not so enjoyable?
It seems that he still needs to work hard and increase his salary.
Unknowingly, Lu Yingzheng was on the path of pua himself.
…
The next day.
Yu Xiangwan's family and Yang Saozi's family next door went out early in the morning.
I met a lot of people on the way.
As soon as everyone saw strangers appear in the family area, they knew that the new family members had arrived.
Moreover, they are easy to recognize.
The coastal town has plenty of ultraviolet rays and high intensity of sunlight. People who have lived here for a long time tend to have darker skin.
Yu Xiangwan and her group, especially Yu Xiangwan, Xiao Xiao and the twins, have naturally fair skin, one or two shades whiter than others, making them very conspicuous in the crowd.
Moreover, Yu Xiangwan dressed up today. Her clothes were not out of the ordinary, but she had put a lot of thought into every detail, which made her look particularly eye-catching.
She looked good, with an oval face, starry eyes and red lips, and she was smiling as she coaxed the child.
Others looked at her and thought her happy expression was really enviable.
"Who is that?"
"So white, you can tell you're new here."
"Hey, after a while, you'll get tanned."
Tian Qingqing bit her lip, not daring to look at Yu Xiangwan and his group.
Her skin was not white, and was in stark contrast to Yu Xiangwan's.
This is really...
After returning home yesterday, she became angrier and angrier.
How did she get married to the man she fell in love with at first sight? How did she have a child?
Tian Qingqing just can't stand others living better than her.
When her classmates and friends got married, she looked at their husbands and just wanted to shake her head.
But the unknown neighbor next door was a handsome man and a pretty girl with a pair of children. They were the family of her dreams!
Why doesn't she have a family like that, but someone else does?
Tian Qingqing walked out of the door angrily, but she didn't expect that everyone was talking about the two new families. Of course, the most talked about topic was the woman.
Gossip is welcome everywhere.
Whenever Yu Xiangwan walked on the street, everyone who saw her would remember her.
All the news seemed to have grown legs and wings, flying all over the family area.
"That new daughter-in-law is so pretty, she looks so cute at first sight."
"She's still young, so of course she looks good. I'd say she's the best looking young person in the whole neighborhood, regardless of whether they're married or not."
"It seems that good-looking people like to date good-looking people. I think that man is also good-looking."
"Then their children will definitely be good in the future..."
People said all kinds of things, and Tian Qingqing listened to them all. Her heart was like a volcano erupting, wanting to vent her anger everywhere and ooze out molten lava.
"Humph! You guys are trying to curry favor with others, but they can't hear you."
Tian Qingqing's mouth is notoriously foul in the family district, and she is also notoriously annoying in the family district.
She acts like she is the boss and few people in her hometown like to talk to her.
Tian Qingqing's sudden words startled everyone.
Everyone looked at each other, but no one responded.
Obviously, Tian Qingqing did not have a correct understanding of herself.
She felt a little annoyed when she saw that others kept silent when she spoke.
She tried so hard to fit in with the group and wanted everyone to say bad things about that woman together, why did everyone suddenly stop?
You really don't know what's good for you!
Tian Qingqing looked at everyone with disdain, thinking they were all cowardly.
"I'm going to say this today. I think that woman is too delicate to live here. She might not be able to bear it anymore and leave in a month or two!"
When the time comes, she will be the first to get the upper hand, and she must take advantage of this opportunity to seduce the handsome man next door!
She snorted, and her mind began to wander, as if she had seen herself and the handsome man being affectionate.
Then she will definitely act arrogant in front of that woman, just like the woman did to her yesterday!
Tian Qingqing walked back with her head held high and chest puffed out, as if she didn't recognize any of her relatives.
There was silence behind me.
Only when she came over did everyone start talking again.
But no one mentioned her tacitly.
But many people were grumbling in their hearts.
Apart from anything else, some of what Tian Qingqing said makes sense.
That young wife is good-looking and well-dressed, but she doesn't look like someone who can make a living.
Although life in the family courtyard was not extremely bad, it was certainly not easy, as one had to reclaim land and grow vegetables by themselves.
The young wife has to take care of the children, and I don’t know if she can adapt to the life here.
"If he really leaves, then..." There will be something interesting to watch.
Someone whispered.
Yu Xiangwan didn't know it yet, but they had become the talk of the town in the family quarters.
She is very excited today.
There aren't many activities like going shopping in a new place.
Apart from her, others were also happy.
The children looked around, eager to get to the supply and marketing cooperative in the county town.
When they arrived at the place, Lu Yingzheng held the two children by himself, and Yu Xiangwan held Lu Yingxiao's hand and started shopping.
"I've asked my comrades, and they said we'd better buy an electric fan," said Lu Yingzheng.
"He said that the weather here is getting hot quickly and we need to turn on the fan now, otherwise the child won't be able to bear it."
Yu Xiangwan waved his hand and said, "Buy!"
"No wonder," said Mrs. Yang, "We had to wear two or three pieces of clothing the day before yesterday, but when we got here yesterday, one long-sleeved shirt was enough."
Although Mrs. Yang understood, she still felt sad: "Ah, in the past, we could just fan ourselves to get through the summer, but here we still have to buy a fan."
Yu Xiangwan comforted her: "Sister-in-law, think about it, it gets hotter here, and one advantage is that it saves fabric."
“You don’t have to make too many winter coats, and summer clothes use less fabric.”
Mrs. Yang's eyes lit up: "Yes!"
"In the past, when the hottest time came, none of my kids wanted to wear clothes. I'm afraid they would be even less willing to wear clothes here. It's just right that I don't have to make too many clothes for them, so I can save them clothes."
Yu Xiangwan: ...That’s not what I meant.
Children should still wear clothes.
Unexpectedly, Wu Sheng was very happy: "Mom, you don't have to make me new clothes, I can just wear nothing!"
Yisheng touched his chin and said, "You don't usually have new clothes."
Wusheng is the youngest and wears his brothers’ clothes. He has never worn new clothes.
Wu Sheng's eyes were rolling. He pulled Sister Yang's sleeve and said, "Mom, you don't have to make new clothes for my brothers. They are naked too."
Win from one to four and then move on to five.
However, the few winners finally said, "We don't have to make new clothes today."
They love being naked too!
Yu Xiangwan reminded: "It's easy to get sunburned, so you still have to wear it."
Yisheng: "Auntie, we have never lived here before. If the sun is too strong, we will definitely not go out."
Yu Xiangwan agreed: "It should be ok in the morning and evening, but it will be really hot at noon."
A few people chatted and laughed while buying things, and soon, the things were bought.
In the end, they didn’t buy, not because they didn’t have enough money, but because they couldn’t take any more.
Even with five Shengdang as labor, Yu Xiangwan still didn't buy enough.
Sister Yang pulled her hand and said, "That's enough, that's enough, it's really enough!"
Don't spend any more money!
Under Yu Xiangwan's influence, Mrs. Yang also spent a lot of money on shopping today.
After I spent quite a bit of money, I realized that I bought too much!
Yu Xiangwan was still not satisfied.
However, considering Mrs. Yang's feelings, forget it, I'll buy it next time I go out.
Yu Xiangwan said he didn't want to buy it, and everyone else breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Yang was relieved because she no longer had to watch Yu Xiangwan spend so much money.
The rest of the people were relieved because they no longer had to walk to get things.
It was the first time that Wu Kesheng realized that accompanying a woman shopping requires so much physical strength.
Aunt Wanwan is so awesome!
Political Commissar Yang patted Lu Yingzheng's shoulder breathlessly and said, "Little Lu, keep working hard to keep in good shape."
His old bones really can't take it anymore.
However, today, they have toured the county town thoroughly, so no matter who goes out in the future, they will have a better idea of what to do.
When they returned to the camp, Yu Xiangwan and his group were carrying large and small bags, which attracted more attention than before they set out.
"This is a really big deal. How much money must it cost!"
"So many things!"
Some people even ran to the side of the road to watch, examining the things they bought with vague eyes.
Is Yu Xiangwan afraid of being seen by others? Of course not.
Look at it if you want, these things belong to them anyway.
If someone asks, I have ready-made answers.
I just moved in and have nothing. Don’t I have to buy some things?
However, since they were unfamiliar with the matter, no one dared to step forward and ask.
Yu Xiangwan is very satisfied with everyone's sense of boundaries.
There are advantages to being unfamiliar.
Tian Qingqing hid at the gate of the courtyard and looked at Yu Xiangwan and his group with jealousy.
This woman is such a spendthrift, how could she buy so many things!
She had never bought so many things before. Usually, her mother would nag her for buying some hairpins.
How can Yu Xiangwan afford to buy so much?
This is so unfair, she thought bitterly.
Why are people’s lives so different!
Lu Yingzheng sensitively noticed Tian Qingqing's gaze.
He deliberately took two quick steps to block Yu Xiangwan so that Tian Qingqing would not see Yu Xiangwan.
Yu Xiangwan took a quick look and went home with a normal expression.
I bought so many things and spent a long time putting them in order.
Having bought a lot of meat and vegetables in the county town, Yu Xiangwan is going to show off his cooking skills today.
"Let's celebrate our move-in today!" Yu Xiangwan said happily.
Xiao Xiao's eyes lit up. As soon as she saw the dishes in the kitchen, she knew that there would be something delicious tonight!
Of course, Lu Yingzheng helped Yu Xiangwan without any regrets.
So, that afternoon, Yu Xiangwan once again made his presence felt in the home area.
Because the food she cooks is so delicious!
The halogen ingredients were cooked well, and the aroma spread far away.
Not to mention Tian Qingqing's house next door.
Tian Qingqing touched her belly and looked at the cold vegetable porridge on the table, feeling like crying but unable to cry!
It’s so bullying!
Just a wall away.
Yu Xiangwan put down his chopsticks with satisfaction.
I ate too much today!
The halved offal has not been eaten yet, so you can continue eating it tomorrow.
The sweet and sour fish had been cleaned up by Lu Yingzheng, and even the soup was gone.
I don’t know if it’s because the twins have grown up and can smell the food, but during this meal, the twins were restless and kept looking at the table.
Yu Xiangwan looked at them with amusement, tapped the twins' cheeks, turned around and asked Lu Yingzheng, "Can you make a cart?"
She had been thinking before that when the twins were six months old, she would ask Lu Yingzheng to make a stroller so that she and the twins could go out for a walk.
The children are grown up, and she can't hold two of them.
Lu Yingzheng: "What kind do you want?"
Yu Xiangwan said, "It'd be better if it's a little bigger. It needs to hold two children. Should it be at least 1.5 meters long and wide?"
She didn't want a stroller that had to strap the child in, so she decided to make it more like a camping stroller for the child, one that could be used for sleeping and sitting.
Lu Yingzheng didn't even think twice: "Okay."
Yu Xiangwan: "Also, we can put a cool bed in the yard. The bench will definitely not be able to trap them both."
The two children have now begun to explore their surroundings.
"I also need to weave a cool mat for the living room," said Yu Xiangwan.
Lu Yingzheng said, "It's OK. I'll get it done as soon as possible. I'll go to report for leave tomorrow, but there's usually nothing important on the first day, so I'll try to get the cooling mat out tomorrow."
Yu Xiangwan was surprised: "So fast?"
Lu Yingzheng: "It's no trouble."
After eating too much, the family decided to go out for a walk to help digest the food.
Yu Xiangwan went to invite Mrs. Yang and her family, and Mrs. Yang readily agreed.
This made the children very happy.
Since they were warned by adults not to go to the beach alone, and they had just arrived, the children were afraid to act rashly. Now that an adult was taking them out to play, they were having fun.
The evening breeze blew gently, and Yu Xiangwan no longer had to hold the child. She felt free and relaxed. She opened her arms, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.
【So comfortable! 】
【I like this place better.】
It is no problem for Lu Yingzheng to hold two children.
It was the first time for Nianlin and Nianyan to see such a scene, and they screamed with joy.
A baby's voice, as long as it's not crying, is so cute.
People around looked over and their eyes lit up when they saw the twins.
Twins are rare these days.
What's more, they raised such good twins, fair, tender, round and plump, which is really rare!
Several sisters-in-law came forward and boldly asked about the situation of the twins.
Yu Xiangwan pulled Mrs. Yang and answered with a smile.
After some exchanges, the two sides got to know each other. In addition, with the presence of Yang Saozi, a community leader, Yu Xiangwan soon followed Yang Saozi and opened up the situation.
On the other side, the five winners came to have fun, bringing Xiao Xiao with them and playing with the kids nearby.
Yu Xiangwan was very satisfied with today's progress.
[Progress of arranging the new house, 50 percent. ]
【Social progress, 10 percent.】
[Very good, the mission progress is beyond expectations.]
Lu Yingzheng didn't expect Yu Xiangwan to be so well organized.
But that's a good thing.
Only when she knew what was going on did he know what was going on.
This home will be better.
