When Hu Xiaoman got home at six o'clock in the afternoon, he smelled the corn stubble all over the yard and couldn't help feeling sour in his stomach.
She has been eating these things during this period of time. Even if she eats porridge and buns in the morning, it is not okay.
Accustomed to life in the afterlife, how could it be possible to change so easily? (Emphasis on this: Don't accuse the heroine of being pretentious.)
As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
The reason she was able to eat coarse grains for so many days was because she had experienced many hard times in the past.
Hu Xiaoman sighed. It seemed that she had to find a way to move out.
Otherwise, if this goes on, she will not be able to bear it sooner or later.
"Are you back? Did you get your salary today?" When Zhang Chunxia saw her come back, she quickly wiped her hands and walked over quickly.
Seeing this scene, Hu Xiaoman still felt quite uncomfortable.
It's like she won't give money.
No matter what, she wouldn't go back on her word. If she said she'd pay the money, then she'd definitely do it.
"Here." She handed over fifteen dollars and some tickets expressionlessly.
There were too few tickets. There was no use for her to keep them.
Hu Xiaoman had already made up his mind and would discuss it with Hu Qinghai in a few days to ask for some cloth coupons.
How could one get clothes without cloth coupons? Even if one wanted to buy clothes on their own, they still needed coupons.
She also inquired about it these days and found out that cloth coupons are needed to buy clothes and fabrics.
In short, you have to get cloth coupons when buying things, otherwise people won’t sell them to you!
"Why is it only fifteen yuan?" Zhang Chunxia immediately exploded, "That's not right, where's the money?"
She glared at Hu Xiaoman, meaning that there was not enough money.
Hu Xiaoman glanced at her calmly and said, "Didn't you agree to leave me ten dollars this month? My dad promised me that."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chunxia felt so angry that her heart ached, but it was the truth.
"That's not right. It needs three dollars and fifty cents." Three dollars and fifty cents is fine.
Hu Xiaoman shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm on sick leave this month. If I hadn't worked overtime before, I probably wouldn't be able to give you even fifteen."
Anyway, Zhang Chunxia won’t go to the factory to ask, so she has to keep the money.
"What a trouble!" Zhang Chunxia rolled her eyes, then held the money in her hand and turned back to the house.
I don’t know what’s wrong with this child. She still wants money. Will she spend it?
Don’t let anyone cheat you and waste your money!
Hu Xiaoman returned to the house and thought about what to do next.
After thinking about it, she went out and stood in front of her third brother Hu Xiaokang's door.
"Is Third Brother here?"
In the room, Du Fang was stunned for a moment, then quickly picked up a can of meat on the table and hid it in the cupboard.
Hu Xiaokang sighed, but didn't say anything. After all, this was food given by his mother-in-law to the two children. She had said when she took it that it was only for the children.
"Xiaoman, come in." He shouted towards the door.
Hu Xiaoman pushed the door open and saw a family of four sitting at the table eating.
A plate of pickled radish strips and a few bowls of corn porridge.
What’s different from Hu Qinghai’s house is that they also have a few steamed cakes.
"Third brother." Hu Xiaoman took in the situation in the room at a glance, ignoring Du Fang's timid look.
"I'm looking for a set of high school and middle school textbooks. Can you help me?"
textbook?
Hu Xiaokang looked at her suspiciously and asked, "Xiaoman, why are you looking for these things?"
Although it was not a difficult task, he was still curious, so he asked.
Hu Xiaoman smiled and said, "I just want to take the self-taught high school entrance exam. You won't object, right?"
Her playful words made Hu Xiaokang laugh.
When it’s just the two of them, Hu Xiaoman acts like a real child.
But Du Fang had never seen this expression before. For a moment, when she looked at Hu Xiaoman, she felt as if she didn't know him.
"Okay, leave it to me first. I'll ask my colleagues tomorrow." Hu Xiaokang agreed immediately.
No matter what, self-study is a good thing, and it is better to have some education than none!
He has learned so many things in the past few years of working.
"Thank you, Third Brother!" Hu Xiaoman immediately thanked him.
As long as you agree, there is hope.
Hu Xiaokang waved his hand and said, "Don't thank me yet. It's not too late to thank me after you get the book back."
This girl is always like this.
The smile on his face was somewhat doting.
Although his parents neglected his sister a lot, he was a man and cared about details that women did not.
But Hu Xiaoman still did not grow up astray and still knew how to study, which made him feel very relieved.
Hu Xiaoman didn't say anything after hearing this. Is this what family love is like sometimes?
She had never experienced it, so she didn't know clearly, but Hu Xiaokang's feelings for the original owner must be the so-called family affection!
After dinner, she only ate half a bowl of porridge and then went back to the house.
Hu Qinghai thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the black market and buy some noodles tomorrow. I'll give Xiaoman a bowl every two days. Although our family isn't rich, we're not broke either."
"Xiao Man is so tired after a day, and I can't help with anything at home, so I'll just buy her something delicious."
He had never thought about his youngest daughter before because she was always ignored.
After Hu Xiaoman was hospitalized last time, he felt that he should be fairer.
At the very least, people should be fed enough. They are old and will not starve to death if they eat less.
When Zhang Chunxia heard his words, she wanted to get angry, but then she thought of her little daughter.
"This damn girl looks at me like an enemy all day long, and I even feed her instant noodles. She's so happy!" She was furious.
In the past, Hu Xiaoman never resisted whatever she said, but recently he has been going against her, which makes her very angry.
Hu Qinghai sighed and said, "Alright, the child already has his own ideas at this age. Can he expect her to listen to you all her life? That's enough. We are all family. Don't go too far."
He has also noticed Hu Xiaoman's recent abnormal behavior, and in fact, he can understand it if he thinks about it carefully.
You're almost at the age to get married. You'll be married in two or three years. What don't you understand?
In the past, they were too extreme as parents, so it is normal for their children to rebel now.
Besides, it’s pretty good that Hu Xiaoman paid more than ten dollars.
In the future, he will prepare some dowry for the child and will not be greedy for the child's money.
Zhang Chunxia didn't say anything, and she didn't think too much about it. Now Hu Xiaoman's attitude was indeed alienated from them.
But she is a girl after all, and she will have to get married sooner or later. Once she gets married and has children, she will understand her own suffering.
Hu Xiaoman had no idea about their conversation. She was staring blankly at the package on the table in her space.
She came in the morning and took away everything on the table.
There should be nothing on the table, so how come a package suddenly appeared?
She walked over and took a look at the list.
"Boneless chicken feet?!" Hu Xiaoman was surprised!
How is this possible?
The boneless chicken feet she ordered last night turned up here!
What on earth is going on!
