Chapter 778 New Year's Eve (Part 4)
The next morning, Lu Xiaoxiao came out of her practice. After washing up, she went straight out of the space. After leaving the space, she added two pieces of firewood to the kang and opened the door of the room.
"Zhang Xu, when did you come back?" As soon as Lu Xiaoxiao opened the door, she saw Zhang Xu sitting on the kang drinking tea and reading a book, so she asked.
"We arrived around one in the morning."
"Why don't you come back today? It's so dangerous to drive on such a snowy night."
"I won't do that next time."
"Have you had breakfast?"
"I've eaten. I left breakfast for you in the pot."
"good."
After breakfast, Lu Xiaoxiao thought about the four sacks of things from yesterday, and asked Zhang Xu, "Zhang Xu, where did you buy the things you asked Monkey to bring back yesterday?"
"Haha."
"The black market in Harbin?"
"Um."
"How much is that bag of rice per pound?"
"Three."
Lu Xiaoxiao was almost angry to death after hearing what Zhang Xu said. She sold the rice for two yuan, and Zhang Xu bought it back for three yuan. Is there anything more terrible than this?
"Zhang Xu, put down the book in your hand first, and then look into my eyes."
When Zhang Xu heard what the little girl said, he put the book in his hand on the table and looked into the little girl's eyes.
Seeing Zhang Xu looking at her, Lu Xiaoxiao said to Zhang Xu with a serious face, "Zhang Xu, remember not to buy rice and flour from my house in the future. I have channels to get rice and flour cheaper than you, so don't waste your money."
"good."
Lu Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment by Zhang Xu's straightforward "OK", then she looked at Zhang Xu and said, "Aren't you curious about how I got the rice and flour cheaper than yours?"
"Not curious."
After Zhang Xu finished speaking, he thought to himself, I've even seen you create things out of thin air, so I'm really not curious at all about how you get the cheap rice and flour.
Lu Xiaoxiao was a little confused when she heard Zhang Xu say he was not curious, but since she didn't have to find reasons to explain, she was happy too, so she didn't delve into it.
“Are you going to the mountain today?”
"No."
"Then help me make steamed buns." Lu Xiaoxiao glanced at Zhang Xu's hands and said to him with sparkling eyes.
"I noticed that there are already three baskets of frozen steamed buns in your yard. Aren't those enough for you to eat?"
"Didn't I make these buns for myself to eat?"
"If you don't eat it yourself, who are you going to send it to? Your master?" Zhang Xu frowned when he heard the little girl's words.
“It’s not for my master, but for the brothers in the mountains who couldn’t go home for the New Year.
Not only will I send them steamed buns on New Year's Eve, I also plan to go hunting before New Year's Eve and then send the prey to my brothers in the mountains for the New Year's Eve dinner.
I also plan to deliver the wine that I promised to give them on New Year’s Eve.
Even though they can't go home for the New Year, at least they can have a good meal, and they probably won't feel so bad about it."
After hearing what the little girl said, Zhang Xu thought that women consider things more meticulously than men. It was normal for people like them not to go home for the New Year and other holidays. They were used to such a life. But when the little girl did this this time, not to mention how moved the people in the mountains would be, he felt particularly moved and warm in his heart.
"Okay, let's do as you say." Zhang Xu said to the little girl.
Seeing that Zhang Xu agreed, Lu Xiaoxiao looked at Zhang Xu and said, "Then let's start with the steamed buns. Come down from the kang and help."
"good."
