Chapter 138 Buying a TV
Such concerned words made Chen Zhuyi shake her head slightly, but she felt a moment of reality in her heart. No matter what the circumstances, she had someone who loved her.
"Did you guys resolve the issue today?" Seeing that Chen Zhuyi didn't seem to want to say too much, Zhou Siwei immediately changed the subject.
"Have you finished your homework?" Chen Zhuyi tugged at his ear sharply, "Are you planning to catch up on your studies on Monday?"
You little brat, you may not have much ability, but you have a lot of thoughts. You are particularly concerned about these messy things. If you had that kind of attention, you should have studied hard!
Zhou Siyi had always done this, but he didn't expect his usual method to be discovered. He quickly apologized and cried out in pain, but he was still no match for Chen Zhu's ruthless move, and was forcibly sent into the room.
"If you don't finish your homework, then you don't have to come to dinner tonight."
Chen Zhu controlled the strength of his hand very well. He locked the little guy in the room without mercy and left the place neatly.
The aroma of food wafted over, and Zhou Siwei's thoughts of refusing to admit it completely disappeared with the sound of the door closing. He pouted in dissatisfaction and resigned himself to taking out his homework to start writing.
These kids don’t really care about their age now. Those who are similar are all assigned to the same class. The homework is not too difficult. It is nothing more than copying. Blood transfusion is one of the few serious questions.
Zhou Siwei was not slow and had a sharp mind, and he was very precise in his work. When the sound of dinner was about to start, he obediently took his homework and handed it to Chen Zhu for inspection.
"Well written. If you dare to be lazy again next time, I will punish you by not allowing you to eat for two days." Chen Zhuyi took out some broad beans from the jar beside him and shared them with them. Then he patted Zhou Siwei's head and mentioned this as a warning.
He didn't dare to eat the potatoes. He held them carefully in his hands and put them on the table next to him. There was a bit of expectation in his dark and cold eyes. He gave them to his grandparents to eat as soon as possible.
Seeing how well-behaved and filial this little guy was, Chen Zhuyi's heart softened. She only hoped that she could have such a good child in the future, and not raise a troublemaker like Zhou Siwei.
"It's almost time for dinner, so you should give the children less snacks." Grandma Zhao also saw it and shook her head, feeling helpless.
Chen Zhuyi just smiled, and Tu Dou immediately handed all the snacks in his hand to Grandma Zhao, with some anticipation on his face: "Eat it."
"No need. You will grow taller only if you eat well." Grandma Zhao rubbed her grandson's head lovingly, then smiled and glanced at Chen Zhuyi beside her.
While they were eating, Huo Jinzhi came over. There was a hint of seriousness in his eyes, and his gaze moved around Shen Zhuyi again.
"You're just in time. Come and have dinner." Chen Zhu waved his hand and invited generously. There was a lot of food cooked at home.
This way, the two elders don’t have to get up too early to cook tomorrow morning.
"I have something I want to talk to you about alone." Huo Jinzhi looked solemn, as if he had made up his mind.
This behavior made Chen Zhuyi confused. She blinked, but still nodded and followed him out.
"This money is for you, and here's my passbook."
When they arrived at the door, Huo Jinzhi stuffed all the things into Chen Zhuyi's hands.
With the light coming through the crack in the door, she could tell it was a considerable sum of money. Shen Zhuyi's heart skipped a beat, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes: "Why are you giving me money?"
Even if Huo Jinzhi wanted to be responsible for her, he should wait until they were properly married. Giving all the money to her now would be unclear and it would be difficult to say whether they were involved.
"You are already enduring all these rumors. I can't let you bear them in vain. These are my sincerity." Huo Jinzhi saw Chen Zhuyi's expression of resistance, frowned, and spoke in a slightly solemn tone.
This sentence also made Chen Zhuyi's eyes more helpless. She stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyebrows: "We are not together because of money. It is not appropriate for you to give me these now."
"I'll give it to you sooner or later, so I'll give it to you sooner rather than later so you know. I can make money, and my money is meant to be spent on you."
Since they have decided to be a family, Huo Jinzhi has no intention of being shy. He will try his best to help buy what should be given to Chen Zhuyi. She deserves it.
"It won't cost that much. You...it's not appropriate to give me money now. I don't want our relationship to be maliciously speculated. Huo Jinzhi, I knew about your situation a long time ago. I chose you simply because you have nothing to do with the outside world."
Chen Zhu grabbed Huo Jinzhi's hand and spoke calmly.
If she were to live her life over again, she would be famous for herself and would not care about other people's opinions.
"But……"
"There aren't that many buts." Chen Zhuyi was even more determined than Huo Jinzhi on this matter: "Besides...you're giving me this money now. Do you think I'll have to figure out how to pay for it myself when it comes time to pay for the betrothal gifts?"
She blinked playfully and mentioned the matter in a somewhat sharp tone.
When it comes to marriage, gay men have to make much more sacrifices than lesbians, and this is also the sincerity shown by Huo Jin after he came to her house.
"I didn't think it through." Huo Jinzhi rubbed his brows and smiled with relief, secretly thinking about buying something for Chen Zhuyi.
He himself is not very good at using a sewing machine or a bicycle, so Chen Zhu had already bought them a long time ago. He could consider giving her a watch so that she can have something to wear.
A TV is also necessary. We have two children at home who are usually quite noisy. Finding some novel toys can calm them down.
However, he didn't expect that someone was faster than him. Ye Xumei arrived home on Sunday, and there was a big car following behind her. Cheng Zhuoyue and she were sitting there together.
"I thought about it and decided to buy a TV for our house so that the two children will have something to watch on a regular basis." Ye Xumei had no idea that he had taken away something that someone else wanted to do. At this moment, he excitedly waved at Chen Zhu, and the excitement in his tone could not be concealed at all.
Many people in the village came over and stared at it curiously.
The island itself is small, and no one has ever added these things. This is the first time everyone has seen them.
"How about...we buy a TV too?" Shen Wantang stared at the TV with his eyes almost popping out, and then he asked the educated youths next to him.
