When going out to eat at noon, Wang Zhaozhao would no longer be amazed by the pork belly from the state-owned restaurant. Going out to eat is a ritual.
When they went to the department store to buy New Year's goods, although Xie Ailian was always complaining about the prices, always saying things like "I won't buy if it's too expensive" and "I'll buy it if it's cheap, and I won't buy it if it's expensive", they did buy a lot of things.
As for Wang Zhaozhao and Wang Sibing, they just let it go in one ear and out the other, and were not affected at all.
I came out of the department store and said I was going home, but I ended up passing by a cake shop.
"Mom, take Dudu and wait outside." Wang Sibing said to Xie Ailian.
Xie Ailian: “……!”
What son of a bitch?!
"Hmph! You think I'm talking too much? You earn the money anyway, so just spend it if you like." So angry!
This cake shop looks so expensive.
The little girl had her birthday and they went to a restaurant, but that wasn’t enough. They also wanted to buy a cake. The local dog insisted on pretending to be a foreign dog.
When Wang Zhaozhao saw the price of the birthday cake, she immediately became discouraged. Qiao Li wanted to buy a big one, but she stopped her. In the end, she bought a 4.8-inch one for six yuan, which hurt her heart.
After coming out, Xie Ailian asked how much it cost.
"Grandma, you'd better not know." Wang Zhaozhao shook his head.
"...Oh, you really feel the pain of your flesh?" Xie Ailian felt distressed but also a little gloating.
"I'm helping you feel the pain."
“…”Did I ask you for help?
It was not convenient to pull someone's ears on the street, so Xie Ailian had to be more open-minded. She had already bought it, so she just let it go.
After returning home to pick up the luggage, Xie Ailian felt sorry for Wang Sibing and told him not to go back. It was so cold in the winter. If he went back now, he would have to get up early in the morning before dawn and rush back to the factory to work.
It’s so hard in this cold winter.
Wang Sibing didn't think so. "It's just getting up early and riding against the wind. What's so hard about that?"
If he doesn't go back, he will sleep alone tonight and I'm afraid the quilt won't be warm enough.
Considering that there was still more than half a month before the holiday, Wang Sibing felt that that would be the real hardship.
Wang Zhaozhao and his companions took a bus to the town, then walked and rode bicycles towards the soldiers. Although they were slower in the front, they caught up with them in the end.
So we went into the village together.
After five o'clock, most people stayed at home and warmed themselves by the fire. Only occasionally, some noises could be heard from someone's house, such as someone scolding their children or something.
The gate to the house was ajar. When I pushed it open and walked in, people from the first and second rooms immediately ran out.
"Grandma, Fourth Uncle, Fourth Aunt, you are back?" Wang Baojia shouted happily, successfully blasting the others out.
Wang Xingwu stepped forward to help take the things.
Everyone gathered together, and Wang Zhaozhao found that Wang Fangbing and Wang Sanbing were also there.
I don’t know if they gave us an early holiday this year because of the canal repairs, or if they didn’t go.
It’s probably because Wang Fangbing is here. He likes to take the lead. Now that I’m back, my sons, daughters-in-law, grandchildren, and granddaughters must come over and talk happily, right?
So everyone gathered in the main room.
"Mom, look at all the bags you have. You've bought so many New Year's goods. We can have a lively New Year this year." Shi Haiyan's mind was on those bags.
Xie Ailian gathered a few bags and went to the reception room with them.
Shi Haiyan: “……!”
She just asked a question, is it necessary to have such a big reaction?
"Third brother's wife, don't worry about it. No matter how much New Year's goods there are, they belong to the fourth brother and his family." Zhang Xiu'e sneered.
Shi Haiyan rolled her eyes and didn't speak to her at all.
Zhang Xiu'e was so angry that she died.
Wang Zhaozhao was not in the group, but was sitting next to them with Wang Baojia and others.
"Sister Zhao, you two haven't been back for a long time." Wang Baojia sighed, "Is junior high school so difficult? Even you have to cram before the exam?"
"Are you stupid?" Without waiting for Wang Zhaozhao to answer, Wang Xingwu knocked on Wang Baojia's head, looking down on him. "You think everyone is like you, needing to cram before the exam? You didn't come back because it was too cold, and running back and forth, and little Dudu is too young, and we were afraid he would catch a cold."
"Second brother, stop making fun of me. We are both in the same boat. I need to cram at the last minute, don't you want to?" Wang Baojia curled his lips.
"I do want it, but will your sister Zhao need it?"
“…”
Wang Baojia laughed dryly and stopped talking.
Wang Zhaozhao asked with a smile, "How are your grades this semester?"
Although I was asking everyone, it was actually Wang Baojia and Wang Xingwu, the two who were lagging behind among a group of cousins.
Well.
Wang Baojia's face fell, but Wang Xingwu smiled.
"Hehe, I don't have a point more or less, it's just right." May our ancestors bless you.
"Second brother..." Wang Zhaozhao gave a thumbs up.
He looked at Wang Baojia and said, "Little comrade, why don't you tell me how many points you got in the exam?"
"...I passed." Wang Baojia avoided looking at everyone.
Wang Zhaozhao showed his fist. "What are the details?"
"Sister Zhao, my brother got 60 in Chinese and 69.5 in math." Wang Weiguo saw that his brother didn't dare to speak, so he helped him speak.
“…”
Oh! There are both zeros and whole numbers.
Wang Zhaozhao looked at Wang Baojia speechlessly. Wang Baojia had no choice but to bite the bullet and look over. "Still, still passed."
He really tried his best.
When he was studying, he felt that he had learned everything, and when he was reviewing, he felt good too. But when it came to the exam, his mind went blank and he didn't know anything.
"Okay, you passed. I won't beat you." Wang Zhaozhao put away his fist. "We're going to the city to see a movie in a few days. You can't go."
ah?
Although I was always prepared, it still came as a bolt from the blue.
"We'll eat the cake later, and you can't eat it. Just watch from the side." Wang Zhaozhao said again.
"What? Cake?"
