Chapter 595: Painful Face
"What are you looking at?" Hu Xiaoqin walked over and asked.
Xie Guimin did not hide it and gave the receipt to Hu Xiaoqin.
As soon as Hu Xiaoqin saw the numbers on the paper, she realized something was wrong.
"Hey, why are there a few taels missing? Did they add some to it?"
Faced with Hu Xiaoqin's question, Xie Guimin could only nod.
But it was this nodding action that made Hu Xiaoqin scratch him directly: "Tell me, what kind of thing did you do? I was asking someone to do something for me, but in the end, you let someone do it for me! What are we going to encounter next time? How can I ask for your advice?"
Xie Guimin was scratched so much that several pustules on his face broke.
But he still didn't dare to hide, for fear that his wife, with her big belly, would not be able to stand steadily and would fall.
Taking a break, he grabbed Hu Xiaoqin's hand and explained, "Wife, I really didn't mean it. I just thought that if they helped me, they wouldn't take any kickbacks, so, so...
I originally thought that it was good enough that he sent me 22 cans of milk powder, and the rest of the food was for him."
Hu Xiaoqin was a little annoyed: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? If you didn't tell me clearly, how could people know? People would think that the scale at home was not accurate and that's why there were a few taels missing!"
"How could that be?" Xie Guimin obviously didn't believe it.
Hu Xiaoqin pointed at Xie Guimin's forehead and said angrily: "Don't you think about it? You took 477.3 kilograms of food to exchange for milk powder. Who wouldn't think that you originally wanted to take 480 kilograms? You know, a box of milk powder has 12 cans. Two boxes, isn't that exactly 24 cans?"
Xie Guimin was frustrated now. He sighed and said, "How would I know there are 12 cans of milk powder in a box? My son Chenchen didn't drink milk powder when he was born!"
Xie Guimin really didn't mean to take advantage of this little thing. He really wanted to make a loophole so that someone could steal this can of grain. If he was even more ruthless, he could steal two cans.
After all, I still don't understand what kind of person Shen Yanming is.
Hu Xiaoqin vented her anger and felt better. She pointed at the milk powder box on the ground and said, "Remember, our scale is not accurate, and there are a few ounces less. It's not that you didn't give enough food on purpose."
Seeing that his wife was no longer angry, Xie Guimin hurriedly responded with two "Ah, Ah".
"Also, you have to keep the matter of our changing milk powder a secret, don't cause any trouble to the couple!"
"Okay, I know. I'll hide the milk powder in the cellar right now. Don't worry, no one knows the entrance except me." After Xie Guimin finished speaking, he carried the box and prepared to leave.
Hu Xiaoqin stopped him and said, "Wait a minute. Leave one can for Chenchen to supplement his nutrition. It's a gift from someone else anyway."
Xie Guimin frowned and asked, "Aren't these all formula milk powder for babies? Can Chenchen drink it? Besides, if Chenchen drinks it, what will our son drink?"
Hu Xiaoqin smiled and said, "Who said that children can't drink baby formula? The protein and calcium in it can still be absorbed. As for me, I will try to eat better in the future. When I have enough milk during the confinement period, my son will drink less milk powder."
Xie Guimin was happy to hear this.
I thought my wife was so nice that she actually thought of his daughter when she had something good.
Although Xie Chenchen had never gone hungry, after all, the farm men had limited knowledge and did not give her many good foods to eat.
I didn't expect that after marrying Hu Xiaoqin, he didn't even mention Hu Xiaole, and just said that he wanted to give his son Chenchen milk powder.
Xie Guimin happily responded, "Okay! Wife, don't worry, I will definitely raise you to be plump and white! Well, I will go to Aunt Qin next door to buy a few chicks. When they grow up, they can not only lay eggs, but also be eaten as chicken.
Don't worry about feeding the chickens anymore. Let Chenchen take Xiaole to the fields to pull weeds and catch bugs!"
Hu Xiaoqin nodded and thought to herself, "Isn't it possible for me to control you?"
As long as she is nice to Xie Chenchen, Xie Guimin will pay her back a hundred or eighty times without her even having to mention it.
As for Xiaole, when it comes to giving the drink to Chenchen, how can he be left out?
hey-hey!
Let’s not talk about Xie Guimin and Hu Xiaoqin.
After Shen Yanming returned home, he continued to cook the remaining strawberry jam with his wife, and then put it into sterilized glass bottles while it was still hot.
As for what kind of bottles to package them into, it is quite particular.
If you have a good relationship, use a 340g glass bottle. If you have an average relationship, use a 170g one.
After packing, Bi Qiaoan felt reluctant to leave the bottles of beautiful strawberry jam.
"Honey, you have to tell them to return the bottle after they finish eating. We'll fill it for them next time we make something delicious."
Shen Yanming found it funny to see her painful expression, but he still agreed.
Although there are many glass products in the space, they cannot withstand such consumption.
Although the glass factories outside are still in production, their production capacity is not as high as before the end of the world. Sometimes you still have to save money.
After cleaning up the kitchen, Shen Yanming said hello to Bi Qiaoan, then left the space with the strawberry jam.
As he was walking under the scorching sun with his backpack on his back, he instinctively wanted to quit.
But when he thought about someone who couldn't even leave the house because of the abscesses on his body, the sympathy in his heart finally overcame his pretentiousness, and he resolutely walked towards Meng Wu's dormitory.
When he knocked on the door, he saw a tall man with bare upper body, thin and haggard appearance, and covered with pustules and sores.
Shen Yanming, who was used to seeing pus-filled faces, was shocked. He shuddered and took a step back.
Only then did he realize how much damage his action had caused to the other party.
But he really didn't mean it, it was a stress reaction after seeing the other person.
Meng Wu was not annoyed, as he had become accustomed to such actions during this period of time.
In comparison, Shen Yanming is still good.
At least I didn't scream like some people, "Monster! Ugly!"
Chen Yanming didn't know what Meng Wu was thinking, so he immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, Meng Wu, I just didn't react for a moment!"
Meng Wu shook his head: "It's okay, why are you here? Come in and sit down..."
Then he paused, "They are afraid of being infected by me, so they usually don't come in."
Chen Yanming smiled and said, "I'm not afraid. We are all pustular diseases. Who can dislike whom? Then, can you invite me in to sit down?"
Meng Wu smiled, opened the door, and invited Shen Yanming to come in and sit down.
Shen Yanming followed him into the house and closed the door, blocking out the onlookers.
"I haven't been out for a long time. I don't have anything at home. Please forgive me for my poor hospitality."
Although he invited the person into the house, Meng Wu did nothing but let Shen Yanming sit on a small stool.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to serve tea or water, but he is afraid that the other party will feel disgusted.
Shen Yanming didn't mind and chatted with the other party briefly.
It turned out that Meng Wu had been taking care of himself during this period and had not gone out for nearly a month in order not to scare others.
Every day, a little soldier came to bring him food.
Although I won’t starve to death, I won’t be full either.
