Chapter 48 I'll Treat You to a Dinner Later!
Everyone heard what Han Ying said to the old lady downstairs in the community, so everyone knew that she was not easy to talk to.
Therefore, a few people who saw that they seemed to have accidentally bought too many things set their sights on Lu Yuan, who also had a large floating bed.
As a young man, he is shy and embarrassed to refuse people, so he is very easy to talk to.
"Young man, look at what I have bought... I accidentally bought too much. The main reason is that my grandson is still young and asks for snacks every day. I thought it was a rare opportunity to go out on this day, so I took too much without noticing. I see that your bag is quite wide, can you help me bring some back?"
One of the old men's eyes lit up when he saw Lu Yuan's floating bed, and he walked straight up to him and said.
"Sure, 1000 per trip, guaranteed to be delivered to your home!"
Lu Yuan turned his head to take a look at the old man's things. As expected, there were a lot of snacks, including bags of potato chips, seaweed, and wafers.
When the old man heard Lu Yuan say it was okay, he was already about to move the things in his hands onto the floating bed.
But after hearing the next sentence, he pulled the thing back abruptly.
1000 per trip?
Although the girl just now was a bit sharp-tongued, she was not as obsessed with money as this guy!
It turned out that what the woman said just now was right. Young people nowadays have no virtues anymore. How could they be like their generation?
Although prices have gone up a lot now, 1,000 yuan can still buy a lot of things. Is he wasting money?
"What's wrong with you, young man? We are all neighbors, it's just a matter of lending a hand...."
The old man hadn't finished his words when he saw Lu Yuan looking at him with a cold look, so he stopped talking abruptly.
Lu Yuan also bought a lot of things himself. Although his floating bed was big, it could only barely hold the things in his two shopping carts without falling down.
Ignoring the old man, Lu Yuan carried the things up one by one and stacked them up.
Han Ying also moved all the things on the shopping cart up and covered it with a layer of waterproof cloth. Then she found that there was still some space on the platform.
Just when I was wondering whether I should go in and buy something more, I saw Lei Minghu and Wu Tingfang pushing three full shopping carts and having already checked out.
Well, her little space won't be wasted.
"What shall I do if the rain doesn't stop?"
Wu Tingfang looked at the long shopping list in her hand with a worried look on her face.
After this trip, more than one month's salary of her husband was gone!
And now because of heavy rain, the club where her husband works is closed, and it is unknown when it will reopen.
Wu Tingfang herself is a non-staff kindergarten teacher who is paid for a day's work.
Now that the kindergarten is closed, both he and his wife have no income!
They still have a mortgage of more than 5,000 yuan every month. What will they do if the rain doesn't stop?
Wu Tingfang also wanted to buy less things, but she felt uneasy in her heart.
Before leaving, her mother-in-law specifically told them not to be stingy with the money.
She would buy as much as she could bring back, and if she had no money left, she would take out her coffin book.
"Xiao Han, Xiao Lu, you two are so fast?"
Seeing that Han Ying and Lu Yuan had already packed their things, Wu Tingfang looked a little surprised.
Wu Tingfang and Lei Minghu took everything out of the shopping cart and moved them into the bathtub little by little.
Stack them up layer by layer, then secure them with ropes, and then cover them with a layer of plastic bags from the supermarket to prevent rainwater from getting in.
But after filling up a large bathtub and a tub, I found that there was still no room for the shopping cart to fit anything in.
Lei Minghu packed half of the remaining items into several shopping bags, and then carried them on two clotheslines bought from the supermarket, but in the end there was still nearly half a shopping cart full of things left.
"Put it here, there's still some space here!"
Han Ying spoke up when she saw Wu Tingfang was about to imitate her husband and carry the things on her shoulders and take them back.
"Xiao Han, it's a rare trip for you, why don't you buy some more things? I can take them back. Go buy some more now while they're still here. We don't know when the rain will stop!"
When Wu Tingfang heard Han Ying's words, she turned around and looked at her floating platform. As expected, there was still some space on it.
"I won't buy it. There are so many people inside. I don't know how long it will take to check out. I'll buy it next time."
Han Ying didn't say that she had a lot of things at home and didn't need to buy so much. After all, it's better not to test people's hearts.
No matter how good the relationship is, when it comes to life, she doesn't dare to take the risk.
"Well, if you need anything, you can come to me. Neighbors should help each other!"
Wu Tingfang did not persuade her any further. She had reminded people before that talking too much might upset others.
Han Ying helped Wu Tingfang move the things in the shopping cart to the platform, and then tied them up again. Then a few people stood by and waited for others.
Many people have come out one after another.
They used all their brain cells to cram the things they bought from the supermarket onto the tools they brought with them.
Han Ying saw an old man pile up the entire bath tub so high that there was not a single gap between them, and then he carried the other things on his shoulders like Lei Minghu did.
There was something I couldn't choose from, so I just tied a few shopping bags together and hung them around my neck.
The lady who had asked Han Ying to lend her the umbrella hat just now was now asking the "polite" couple to help her bring some things.
After all, they came with a big inflatable swimming pool, and they didn't buy that many things themselves.
The husband of the couple was looking at the old lady with a gloomy face as she put bags of things into their inflatable pool.
His wife looked like she was about to cry and didn't dare to say a word.
"Auntie, you are so brisk?"
Han Ying was pulling the magic carpet with a rope in front. When she passed by the old lady, she saw that there were a lot of things in her bathtub, but most of them were light items.
The bathtub didn't take up much water, which shows that the heavy parts are all in the inflatable pool.
"Hey little girl, it's you. Thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to take all the things I bought back. Thank you, I'll treat you to a meal later!"
After seeing Han Ying's machine-gun mouth, the old lady no longer dared to borrow her umbrella hat.
She happily dragged the light-not-at-all bathtub even faster than when she came here.
It was raining so heavily that no one chatted much.
However, after buying a large amount of supplies, everyone's mood improved a lot, and some even started chatting and shouting loudly.
The aunt's words also fell into the ears of the couple.
They worked so hard to help the old lady load things, but Han Ying got to be the good guy?
The woman stared at Han Ying's back, her face full of resentment.
