Chapter 10 Second Mission (Part 2)
"Did you have a smooth outing today?" Shi Qingqing asked casually after wiping the table.
Zhao Fengnian didn't feel wronged at first, but he became upset when his wife asked him about it. "They are bullying us. They ask for a very high price for each room. You said that the house you mentioned was 35 yuan for two rooms, but they insisted on 50 yuan per room."
"You're crazy." Shi Qingqing cursed, "I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about that landlord. Is he crazy? There's a ditch behind his house, and there's also an ancestral hall behind it.
There's a row of tablets there, and it's good that people don't think it's scary, and I'm still paying 50 yuan! They're really crazy about money."
As for the ghost stories, no matter how many people say that they are unscientific, how many people in the world truly believe that there are no ghosts at night and no monsters in secret rooms?
Such a gloomy and stuffy living environment, and you still want fifty?
The other two units have lower prices and are in very poor conditions.
Why did Shi Qingqing know this? Because in the dream, Zhao Fengnian gave the two rooms on the first floor of the yard where they lived now to his uncle's family of four, and he also went out to borrow money to pay the rent for his brothers and sisters for seven or eight months.
However, Zhao Fengnian took her to a place with a bad environment, where three families lived in one yard. One of the tenants scalded her dog and said with a smile that since he couldn't keep it alive, he might as well kill it and eat it.
That big fool Zhao Fengnian actually thinks there is nothing wrong with it!
She spent four painful years there, and had an abortion of her first child because of financial difficulties. Later, when she had a little extra money, she dared to welcome the birth of her eldest daughter.
The two will not continue their marriage in this life, so those poor children should just find a good family to be born into.
She washed the rag and hung it on the nail, then suppressed her sadness and said that she would accompany him to find a rental house tomorrow afternoon.
She would be living here for a while, and even if she didn't rent it out, she was unwilling to give it to the Zhao family, as that would make her feel frustrated that she was still going back to her old ways.
Zhao Fengnian didn't notice the sadness in his wife's eyes, and happily agreed. Then he went out to the well to fetch water, and soon filled all the buckets and basins of varying sizes in the house.
The effort is used as if it’s free.
The next morning, Shi Qingqing got up early again. This time, Zhao Fengnian got up even earlier than her. He cooked some noodles, and after they finished eating, he got out a tricycle from somewhere.
It's still electric.
It was obviously modified, like a motorcycle with a few wooden boards and a wheel added to the side.
In order to balance the weight, metal railings were added to the car.
This thing can indeed hold more than a bicycle.
Zhao Fengnian said, "I just finished work at a construction site and have nothing to do, so I'll go with you this time."
After saying that, I waited for her answer a little awkwardly.
"I told you, I'm going out for something."
"I just want to be with you." Zhao Fengnian was really confused by his wife's behavior these days. She obviously cared about him and gave him good food, but she also said things that made him sad.
Seeing that Zhao Fengnian insisted, Shi Qingqing didn't want to waste time so she nodded, and saw Zhao Fengnian cheer and go to prepare things.
Ten minutes later, Shi Qingqing discovered that Zhao Fengnian had prepared a fishing rod, a scoop net, a straw hat, and a sieve that was rarely used at home. It was made of bamboo and was originally used to dry goods or pick beans.
It is more complete than what she prepared.
With a man accompanying her, she felt a lot more relaxed. He pedaled the bike while she just sat on the back seat and gave directions.
When I got to the beach, I didn't see anyone. The wind was so strong that my figure was outlined by my clothes.
Shi Qingqing only had one and a half kilograms of work to do, so she found a new place and started picking.
When she thought she had dug enough, Zhao Fengnian, who was nearby, came jogging over with a plastic bag full.
At least five pounds.
Shi Qingqing: ...Should we say it is the difference between men and women?
I had never heard Zhao Fengnian say before that he could pick oyster shells.
"Wife, there's more over there. I'll go dig some. I've seen many locals buy this fried egg. Put some water in this meat and tie it up. A big bag can be sold for three cents."
Shi Qingqing showed a bit of admiration on her face. He was indeed fast and did not damage the meat.
Seeing this look, Zhao Fengnian happily said that he could dig ten more pots!
Seeing the straightforward expression on Zhao Fengnian's face at this moment, Shi Qingqing was also infected: "Okay, dig more, sell them and buy you some pig head meat."
"Okay! I'll buy you roast duck, too, and give you both duck legs." He looked hopefully at the group of oysters in front of him, as if this was the way for him to impress his wife, so he rolled up his sleeves and got to work.
Shi Qingqing likes to eat duck meat, especially duck legs. When she was a child, whenever her family slaughtered chickens and ducks, her grandmother who lived not far away would always bring her cousin over, and Shi Qingqing basically could not eat the legs.
She was obsessed with duck legs. After they got married, when Zhao Fengnian was buying stewed food, she said that it would be better if the legs were intact. Zhao Fengnian kept it in mind.
Whenever they ate duck at home, he would put the legs directly into his wife's bowl. This man was always willing to give them to Shi Qingqing.
Before, he took Shi Qingqing to a co-worker's house for dinner. There were several children at the table, but Zhao Fengnian pretended not to see other people's looks and directly picked up a big duck leg and gave it to Shi Qingqing.
The beautiful memory was something that happened not long ago. Thinking of it, Shi Qingqing's expression softened. She went to wipe the water off his face. When her hand was held, she just struggled slightly: "Okay, let's dig together."
When Zhao Fengnian was glanced at by his wife's beautiful eyes, he felt full of energy and dug hard.
Shi Qingqing dug for a while and then handed in all she had dug for the task.
When she did things, her first reaction was to do her own work, so she never thought of using what Zhao Fengnian had made to complete the work.
Why? Can anyone else do it?
Then how many people did she recruit to work for her?
Before I could figure out a conclusion, the Haihuo Mall popped up: [Oyster meat detected nearby, whether to redeem points. ]
Although the mission is over, the excess oyster meat can still be exchanged for points?
But it was obviously not possible for so much meat to disappear out of thin air. Shi Qingqing looked at the meat with regret.
But Shi Qingqing changed her mind and realized that the purchasing power of one point was almost equal to one dollar in reality, but a pound of oyster meat could be sold for less than one dollar in reality.
So I decided to sell it to Haihuo Mall, and then share the items I bought with him equally.
It’s obviously inappropriate to exchange here, so I can only hold it back for now.
At noon, the two of them had steamed buns and pickled mustard tubers. Zhao Fengnian magically got out a pot, made a fire and boiled water, and then magically took out two packets of instant noodles from a snakeskin bag.
"It's a pity that I didn't bring eggs, otherwise it would be more delicious."
There is a saying among men that one stays young until death. Although Zhao Fengnian is two years older than Shi Qingqing, he does look quite childish in his daily life.
For example, at this moment Zhao Fengnian clearly had an expression that said "I am very thoughtful", but he still said this.
Shi Qingqing asked a question that choked the "careful and thoughtful" Zhao Fengnian.
She asked: "Since you brought instant noodles, did you bring chopsticks as well?"
Zhao Fengnian: ...
