Chapter 26 Chapter 26 Thick-skinned, thin-skinned
After experiencing the misunderstanding in the black market, Zhuo Jia became even more determined not to go there. There was no other way, she was really timid and didn't dare to go!
Back at the brigade, Qiao Anchuan sent Zhuo Jia back to the educated youth camp, exchanged a few words, and then reluctantly let Zhuo Jia send him away...
He sent it out, still holding the mung bean cake that Zhuo Jia gave him.
He didn't want it at first, but Zhuo Jia said that she was giving it to Aunt Hongying and several children, so Qiao Anchuan was willing to leave with the mung bean cake.
After Qiao Anchuan left, Zhuo Jia climbed onto the kang and opened the kang cabinet. She took out a bottle of canned fruit, opened it and started eating. While eating, she opened the purchasing group. Well, apart from the daily purchases, the group seemed dead.
She opened her personal information and saw that the balance was still only 600 yuan. She couldn't help but sigh. Now she had a Kingsoft account but couldn't use it. She was so worried.
Zhuo Jia became more and more worried the more she thought about it. She couldn't help but make herself another cup of milk powder. Well, it was indeed delicious, but the price was also quite attractive. However, the most difficult thing was not the price, but that milk powder was not something she could buy whenever she wanted. In order to buy this little bit of milk powder, she had to spend so much money.
Thinking of money, Zhuo Jia couldn't help but sigh. She was not short of money, but her problem was that she couldn't spend the money.
I hope this situation will improve after we move out of the educated youth site.
She lowered her eyes to look at the purchasing group hanging beside her, staring at the "grocery store" in the group for a long time. She had a guess that had never been verified. Since the "grocery store" bought everything, could it sell it outside?
But now is not a good time to verify this conjecture. Let’s wait until we move out of the educated youth site!
With a sigh, Zhuo Jia closed her Jinshan Purchasing Group again, glanced at the time, and got up to go to the kitchen. It was time to make dinner...
"Jia Jia, why are you back so early?" Zhang Yunhuan dragged her legs back. When she saw Zhuo Jia, she immediately regained her strength. She ran over and asked in surprise.
Weren’t you out on a date? Why are you back so soon?
Zhuo Jia, who understood the meaning behind Zhang Yunhuan's words, looked over and said with a smile, "It's almost six o'clock now."
Although it was getting dark late, it wasn't too late for them to come back. Moreover, if they waited until now and ran into the large group of people leaving work, she couldn't imagine what gossip would spread. So they deliberately came back a little earlier.
Zhang Yunhuan hurried out to wash her face, then ran to the kitchen to work with Zhuo Jia. While busying herself, she didn't forget to ask quietly, "How was your date?"
It should be okay. You know, she was planning to write a letter to her mother and ask her mother to help prepare a wedding gift for Jia Jia.
Zhuo Jia blinked and smiled: "Very good."
Anyway, up to now, Qiao Anchuan has no veto points with her. Instead, he is quite cute. Who would have thought that such a big man would blush easily.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but chuckle.
Seeing her like this, Zhang Yunhuan knew that she was very satisfied with Qiao Anchuan. Zhang Yunhuan couldn't help but ask: "Tell me in detail, where did you go to play today?"
She is very curious!
Zhuo Jia said calmly, "I didn't do anything. I just went to the movies. Oh, and also went to eat the braised pork we had two days ago."
As for going to the park and being chased, don't tell Zhang Yunhua about it.
Zhang Yunhuan stopped smiling and looked at Zhuo Jia with a wronged expression. Watching movies was fine, it was not like she had never seen one before, but she envied Zhuo Jia for eating braised pork, because braised pork was really delicious, and...
"Didn't we agree that we would go eat braised pork together? I'll pay for the tickets and you'll pay for the money." Zhang Yunhuan said aggrievedly.
How come they were dating and yet he went to eat the braised pork they had agreed to eat behind her back?
Zhuo Jia coughed and said quickly, "If you think this way, how long can Qiao Anchuan stay at home? Aren't we the only ones going out to play from now on?"
Qiao Anchuan will leave soon, but Zhang Yunhuan can't leave for the time being. She can't lose such a good dining partner like Zhang Yunhuan because of Qiao Anchuan.
"You are right." Zhang Yunhuan nodded thoughtfully. That's the truth!
At this moment, she suddenly felt that it was a good thing for Zhuo Jia to find such a partner. At least he wouldn't always compete with her for Zhuo Jia.
Seeing that she had come to her senses, Zhuo Jia nudged her with her elbow and said, "Don't just stand there. Get back to work. Everyone will be back soon."
If you don't do it now, you'll be late for dinner.
Zhang Yunhuan didn't have time to talk about anything else. He said that he could talk about gossip later, so don't delay cooking. He could continue asking after dinner was done!
Both of them were busy cooking, and by the time everyone else came back one after another, the food was almost ready.
Then, the first time everyone saw Zhuo Jia, they curiously asked her how her trip to the county was today...
Well, it’s definitely not gossip, it’s concern!
Zhuo Jia didn't blush either. She said calmly, "We had a great time. You can prepare your gifts now."
She is not like Qiao Anchuan who blushes easily!
"How did you get there?"
Zhuo Jia: "Qiao Anchuan took me on his bike."
"Where did you go to play?"
Zhuo Jia: "I went to many places, like the cinema, the park, the supply and marketing cooperative, and the state-owned restaurant."
Others: “…”
Forget it, forget it. After asking so many questions, Zhuo Jia is not even blushing or breathing heavily. She is too thick-skinned and I can’t answer them all.
Zhuo Jia watched as everyone died down, and she walked away with her head held high with pride. She didn't blush at all at these questions. She thought they would ask if they held hands or something like that. People nowadays are still too conservative.
On the other hand, Qiao Anchuan had completely different ideas from her. Before Liu Hongying could ask a few questions, Qiao Anchuan ran away with a red face.
Looking at Qiao Anchuan's back, Liu Hongying was furious. She asked in disbelief, "No, who does your son look like? Why is he so shameless? I just asked where they went and what they talked about. Why is he blushing?"
She didn't mean anything else, she just wanted to know if her good-for-nothing son was being disliked, and whether he had to run away.
The brigade secretary shook his head: "I don't know either. It doesn't look like me anyway."
He is not so useless. There is nothing to be embarrassed about dating his girlfriend.
Liu Hongying glared at him: "What do you mean? If I don't look like you, then I look like me. Am I really that useless?"
When she said this, she was holding a kitchen knife in her hand, as if she was going to take action if the brigade secretary said something wrong.
Glancing at the kitchen knife in her hand, the brigade secretary wisely changed his words: "I just said the wrong thing. Chuanzi is just like me."
After hearing this, Liu Hongying took the kitchen knife and returned to the kitchen with satisfaction!
Looking at Liu Hongying's back, the brigade secretary couldn't help but sigh. What was going on? He was already old, and he almost got beaten because of the second brother.
No, I have to get the second son married quickly, and then split up the family and move out, so that he won’t be blamed for everything.
So Qiao Anchuan, who had hidden back in the house, was chased by his own father, who said a bunch of useless words to him. The main idea was to urge him to talk to Zhuo Zhiqing more often, cultivate their feelings, and most importantly, get married as soon as possible.
Qiao Anchuan was speechless: "Dad, how long have I known Zhuo Zhiqing?"
Could it be that he doesn't want to get married soon?
No, he has no say in this matter!
"So what? There are many people who get married after meeting once or twice. Why can't you? Besides, you are leaving in twenty days. You have to hurry up," said the brigade secretary angrily with his hands behind his back.
How could such a smart man have such a stupid son?
God is so blind!
Qiao Anchuan frowned: "How can I hold on tighter? I can't just grab Zhuo Zhiqing and say, 'Let's get married.' Otherwise, I'll be arrested as a hooligan."
He is not stupid, so of course he has to cultivate the relationship first and then talk about marriage when it is almost ready.
Brigade Secretary: “…”
How could he have such a stupid son?
"Forget it, don't worry about it. Just develop a good relationship with Zhuo Zhiqing." The brigade secretary said with a sigh.
Zhuo Zhiqing doesn't have any family here, otherwise they could discuss it with Zhuo Zhiqing's family. Now they can only let Hongying ask Ding Lanhua.
Qiao Anchuan nodded and comforted his father: "Dad, you don't have to worry too much. Zhuo Zhiqing and I get along very well. After our house is built, I will propose marriage to Zhuo Zhiqing."
They will move out after they get married. That way, even if he leaves after the vacation, he won’t have to worry about Jia Jia not getting along with his family. How great is that.
The brigade secretary seemed thoughtful: "You mean, you'll talk about getting married once the house is built?"
This is not difficult. If you wait until you get married to buy a house, you can build the second child's house first, and then build the eldest child's house after you finish building the second child's house!
Qiao Anchuan nodded: "Yeah, I'll bring it up when the house is finished. By the way, Dad, I'm going to help Zhuo Zhiqing with his work tomorrow."
At this moment, Qiao Anchuan had no idea what kind of crazy things his father was thinking!
The brigade secretary, who had originally wanted Qiao Anchuan to help build the house, quickly nodded and said, "That's right. You have a good eye. You don't have to worry about building the house. Let your mother go."
It would be too difficult for Zhuo Zhiqing to go to work, and Lao Huang's hair is almost falling out, which makes him very worried!
It is better to let the second son go to help Zhuo Zhiqing with work, so that Zhuo Zhiqing can get more work points and there will not be enough food in the end.
Qiao Anchuan: "..."
You can see that his father is really anxious!
At the educated youth point, Zhang Yunhuan only found out in the morning that Qiao Anchuan went to help Zhuo Jia go to work. She was stunned.
"No, you won't go to work anymore. Are you just going to abandon me like this?" Zhang Yunhuan asked in disbelief.
Although the two of them don't work in the same place, how can she continue to work if her good friend no longer works?
Zhuo Jia waved her hand: "Look at what you said, what do you mean by not going to work in the future? Now I have someone to help me, but when Qiao Anchuan leaves, won't there be no one to help me?"
But if no one helps her, she won't go to work. Qiao Anchuan has agreed anyway, so if anyone wants her to go to work, then they can go to Qiao Anchuan.
"You wouldn't go without someone helping you." Zhang Yunhuan, who had seen through her long ago, blushed with anger.
No, she also wants to write a letter to her parents, and she doesn’t want to go to work anymore!
Zhuo Jia: "..."
She couldn't refute this!
The reason why she can play with Zhang Yunhuan is because they are the same kind of people.
In the end, Zhang Yunhuan went to work in a rage.
What's even funnier is that this time when she was picking grass for pigs, she met a chatty old woman who said a few words to her, the main idea being that she was too lazy and would never get married. And then...
Zhang Yunhuan started crying, wailing loudly, all the way to the brigade headquarters, and became famous just by crying!
