Chapter 10 Chinese New Year



Yaoyao was right. There were only two of them left in the Jing family. If she fell and Jingyao was left alone, she would be eaten by those tigers and wolves.

At this time, Grandpa made up his mind to find someone who could protect Jingyao during his lifetime.

Jingyao had no idea about her grandfather's thoughts.

Now that the weather has turned hot, people will soon notice the abnormal weather. Jing Yao now spends all his time exercising, especially using a knife, except for occasionally going out to replenish supplies.

She doesn't want to be in danger due to physical reasons one day in the future.

Jing Yao downloaded many TV dramas online and also some videos specifically teaching people how to defend themselves.

Just watching is not enough. Every morning when the temperature is not too hot, Jingyao would practice a few moves in the courtyard.

"You can't do this."

Grandpa watched Jingyao exercising for several days. Even an outsider like him could see that Jingyao had only trained for show. It was okay to scare people, but it wouldn't work if he really met someone.

Jing Yao stopped and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

"I think it's pretty good."

She didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all.

"You're just being pretentious and trying to bluff people, but if you really get down to business, you'll be that...what was that? You young people often say..."

"cannon fodder?"

"Yes! They're cannon fodder!"

After hearing his grandfather's evaluation of him, Jing Yao suddenly felt discouraged.

"You need to find someone to teach you."

Not only is the weather getting hotter, but the New Year is coming soon. Who can I find someone to talk to at this time?

Jing Yao thought about it and decided that although it was very hot, she could still go out.

What's more, I have my own car, both an energy car and a car.

There is no need to worry about electricity and gasoline, so even if I turn on the air conditioner, I can afford it.

Speaking of gasoline, Jing Yao went through a lot of trouble to stock up on it.

Gas stations do not allow the use of barreled oil unless you have a certificate from the relevant department.

Even if there was proof, it was only the amount of a small pot, which was far from what Jingyao wanted.

So Jingyao thought of a way.

She first drained the gas from the car, leaving only enough to go to the gas station, and then drove to the gas station to fill it up.

Then drive another car and do the same thing.

After she came back, she went to refuel the next day. She went there frequently and everyone at the gas station knew her.

Jingyao announced to the outside world that she drove by herself and consumed a lot of fuel.

The staff didn't ask any further questions, and Jing Yao managed to save up nearly 5,000 tons of gasoline.

Now all the gasoline is stored in large barrels in its own space warehouse.

"I'll find a master to teach me after the New Year. During this time, I'll practice on my own."

Diligence can make up for lack of talent. Jing Yao firmly believes that even if she has no basic knowledge, she can still learn 10% with the help of video teaching.

Learn to lay the basics first, and then find someone to teach you after the new year.

Seeing that Jingyao had already made up her mind, Grandpa Jing did not interfere too much, but he would also help her take care of finding a coach.

After Jing Yao finished warming up, she switched the video to the long sword course and demonstrated it in a very professional manner with her own long sword.

Grandpa Jing: It seems that I need to find a man for my granddaughter who is not only good at self-defense but also good at using a knife.

As the New Year draws closer, the weather becomes hotter and hotter, and Jingyao's family has already started wearing thin clothes.

Aunt Lin has recently started preparing some things for the New Year and goes out to the vegetable market every morning.

Even if Jingyao told her that there was one in the basement, she would still go out to the vegetable market.

In Aunt Lin's opinion, those things in the basement are for emergency use.

During this period, the system randomly dropped some small tasks. Jing Yao has unlocked some items in the fruit and vegetable area and a lot of items in the rice and flour area with these tasks.

Even if Jing Yao finishes eating the food in the basement, she can still use the money to exchange it in the system supermarket.

So Jing Yao was not in a hurry at all when eating this piece.

Taking advantage of the warmer weather, Jingyao went shopping at the mall, partly to buy new clothes for her family and partly because down jackets were on sale.

If I don’t buy it now, I have to wait until it’s extremely cold.

Many shopping malls now sell spring and summer clothes. After all, the weather is so hot, who would wear a down jacket?

This was a good deal for Jingyao, as she went door to door to clear out the inventory.

For this purpose, Jingyao even rented a small pickup truck.

As soon as the pile is full, go back, throw everything into the space warehouse, and then continue shopping.

Jing Yao even bought nearly 50 quilts, clearing out most of these people's inventory.

Thinking that the weather would get hotter, Jing Yao went to the cold drink wholesale market again and bought back boxes of all the cold drinks she liked and those she had never seen before.

On the way back, I also bought a few ice machines and little suns.

When I saw a coal stove for sale, I naturally didn't miss it.

The store owner happily gave Jingyao several more boxes of fruit charcoal.

On New Year's Day, Jingyao was woken up by the heat early in the morning.

I walked downstairs in a short-sleeved shirt and saw my grandfather sitting on the sofa with a fan on.

I don’t know where Aunt Lin got the fan.

Jing Yao walked to the control panel inside the house and turned on the central air conditioning.

"Yaoyao, there's no need to turn on the air conditioner. I heard from Xiaolin that the electricity bill has gone up again."

"Grandpa, our family is rich, so we don't have to worry about the electricity bill. Besides, we use solar power at home."

"Solar energy? Those things on our roof?"

Jing Yao nodded, her family had been using solar energy since they moved in.

"So, Grandpa, you don't have to worry about the electricity bill this time."

"Don't worry, don't worry."

Grandpa Jing turned off the fan and put it in the corner.
