"Of course!" Old Ning said with certainty, "This thing is kept for you."
Ning Jia looked at the box in disbelief. Inside the box were rolls of money and bills.
She picked up a roll of money, opened it and counted it. There were ten dollars in total.
Old Ning watched her counting the money and told her directly: "There are 10 rolls of money in here, 10 yuan per roll, a total of 10 yuan. There are also some cloth coupons I exchanged with others, which add up to quite a few pieces. You can take them all this time."
"Tsk tsk tsk." Ning Jia couldn't help but sigh, "Grandpa, are you living a miserable life?"
I have saved up so many things for her, and it will probably take her a long time to use them.
"Jia Jia, Grandpa has heard about your life in Laohuaishu Village. Life is not easy for your husband's family. You have to save some money. When you don't have enough food, you have to find a way to cook for yourself."
Old Ning felt sorry for his granddaughter. Looking at her skinny appearance, he felt really bad.
Seeing the old man saving money for her, Ning Jia was deeply moved: "You should keep this money for yourself and buy yourself something to eat. I have a good life now, Li Yao is supporting me."
"Is he nice to you?" Old Ning asked.
Ning Jia nodded in affirmation: "Good, very good. Really, he loves me very much now."
Seeing that Ning Jia didn't seem to be lying, Old Ning felt relieved: "That's good. It's better for you two to live a good life."
"good."
The grandfather and grandson were chatting when Ning Peng's voice was heard outside the door, calling for dinner.
Old Ning quickly stuffed the money into Ning Jia's pocket and said, "Take it quickly, don't let your brother, the prodigal son, find out. If he finds out, can he still use your money?"
Ning Jia has hands and feet and can support himself, so he is unwilling to take money from a 70-year-old man.
But Old Ning loved his granddaughter so much that he was determined to give her the money.
Ning Jia couldn't refuse, so he accepted the money.
"Don't worry about your grandma's family, just live your life well. Your parents have enough food and drink, and they live a better life than you."
Facing his grandfather's concern and instructions, Ning Jia nodded repeatedly: "I understand."
"What do you know?" Old Ning said to her with a smile, "Your mother secretly raised a flock of chickens in the back hills, about ten or so. Your brother just went to the county grain station and bought some grain for sale. Your father works in the slaughterhouse and goes to get some pork every now and then. What about you?"
Ning Jia: “…”
Depend on!
This is such a horrible book!
Why is life so miserable? The life here is not even a little bit worse than that of my mother's family.
"Remember what grandpa said to you. Do you understand what I mean?" Old Ning looked at her with a smile.
"clear."
"That's good, sir. Let's eat."
The lunch was quite sumptuous, with steamed buns and white rice, fish and chicken on the table, as well as a pot of fragrant, golden fried eggs.
"Come here, you've worked hard as the head of the household. I'll give you a chicken leg." Yang Huilian first twisted off a chicken leg and put it into her husband's bowl.
"Hey!" Ning Jia hurriedly grabbed another chicken leg, twisted it off, and put it into Old Ning's bowl. "Grandpa is old, he needs to eat more to supplement his nutrition."
Ning Peng originally planned to grab the other chicken leg and give it to Li Hongye, but Ning Jia got there first.
"You should eat it. Grandpa is tired of eating chicken legs. Besides, eating too much meat is not easy to digest and makes the stomach uncomfortable."
"Really?" Ning Jia expressed his doubt.
Old Ning pointed at Yang Huilian and said, "If you don't believe me, ask your mother."
Yang Huilian nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, you should eat it. Your grandfather is really tired of it."
Since Ning Jia had grabbed all the chicken legs, she was willing to let Ning Jia eat them. It was much better than giving them to the old man.
"Okay, then I won't be polite." Ning Jia picked up the chicken leg again and took two big bites.
Ning Guifa picked up the chicken leg in her bowl and was about to eat it, but a pair of chopsticks reached out and snatched the chicken leg in her hand.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Ning Jia said with a smile: "Mom, didn't you say you would love your son-in-law? Why did you give the chicken leg to my dad? It should be given to Li Yao."
Ning Guifa: “…”
Yang Huilian: “…”
Li Yao had no intention of eating it, but Ning Jia stuffed it into his mouth, so he had to eat it no matter what.
Ning Jia ate to his heart's content for this meal.
She ate a bowl of dry rice, a pile of chicken, half a fish, and half a plate of eggs by herself, until her stomach was full, and then she stopped.
Yang Huilian stared at it for a long time, then blurted out, "You are a starving ghost reincarnated, how come you eat so much!!"
Ning Jia smiled at her and said, "I can't help it. I'm hungry! I didn't eat more when I got to my parents' house. There will be nothing to eat when I get to my husband's house."
Yang Huilian: “…”
I had hoped that she would bring some good stuff, but in the end, she didn't get anything good at all, and she also took away a big fish and a chicken.
It hurts!
At this moment, she really hopes that Ning Jia has not been home for a long time.
After lunch, Yang Huilian urged Ning Jia to get up quickly.
She wasn't going to take care of another dinner.
Ning Jia didn't plan to stay any longer, so he had to prepare for the trip.
An Ye went to her mother's house, and her family had packed up a lot of things, including food, drinks, clothes, and daily necessities.
Before leaving, she and Li Xu came to Ning Jia's house, visited Li Hong, and then planned to leave with Ning Jia.
"Wait for me to pack some things." Ning Jia said.
"Pack your things? What else do you want to pack?" Yang Huilian asked hurriedly.
"I didn't come here empty-handed, so you can't let me leave empty-handed, right? Mom, my grandparents' family is having a hard time, and I want you to help me out!"
After Ning Jia finished speaking, he went straight to the kitchen and picked up the remaining fish weighing 10 kilograms.
"Ouch!" Yang Huilian was shocked. "Can you finish such a big fish?"
Ning Jia nodded seriously: "Yes! I'm afraid there won't be enough to eat! Mom, you shouldn't be so petty that you don't want me to take it, right?"
Yang Huilian felt distressed, but her daughter had already said it, and there were outsiders around, so she felt embarrassed to stop her.
After getting the fish, Ning Jia ran to the yard to catch chickens from the chicken coop.
"Stop, stop!" Yang Huilian hurriedly stopped him, "My chicken is still laying eggs, don't grab it."
"Mom, you don't need this chicken! At the dinner table you said you were tired of eating chicken, why don't you let me have one!"
Yang Huilian thought about what she had said and wanted to slap herself twice.
"Catch a chick, chick! The remaining old hen needs to lay eggs and nourish your sister-in-law!"
Ning Jia nodded: "Okay."
The fish was taken, and the chicken was taken.
But Ning Jia's eyes were still moving around the yard.
"Stop looking and get out of here quickly." Yang Huilian started to chase people away.
At this time, Ning Jia looked directly at An Ye, wanting to see what she was holding in her hand.
An Ye was also very smart. She immediately said in a mocking tone, "Oh, you only took these few things from your mother's house? If you take them away, people will laugh at you! Look at what my mother gave me. There were chickens, fish, rice, flour, and oil. Oh, and she also gave me a pound of eggs. If I hadn't said I couldn't take them, we would have packed some sweet potatoes for me!"
Ning Jia's face changed immediately. She put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "Mom, this An Ye is the worst! She is deliberately irritating me! No, if she has it, I have to have it too. Why should she be superior to me? I have to take it!"
After saying that, Ning Jia dived into the kitchen again.
Yang Huilian was almost heartbroken: "Oh my dear, you are destroying my mother's house. I think you are the devils who came into the village to sweep the village. You will not stop until you have demolished my house to the ground!"
