Chapter 43
The box packaging is very beautiful.
Daya and Erya, who had always lived in a mountain village, had never seen such novelties before and didn't even know what bread was.
Qi Daya stared at Qi Man blankly and asked in confusion: "Cousin, we have heard of dried meat and cattails, but what is bread?"
The farthest place they had ever been was the county town.
Qi Man unpacked the boxes quickly. There were two loaves of bread in each box. She put one in each person's hand and said, "This is chocolate bread, similar to steamed buns, but with milk, flour, and chocolate added. Eat more. I have more if you don't have enough."
The two sisters held the bread, a little at a loss. The bread in their hands was soft and fluffy, even softer than freshly steamed white buns, and even exuded a tempting fragrance.
Such good stuff, can these two money-losing goods really be eaten?
Seeing the two sisters standing still, Qi Man couldn't help but wonder: "Why are you standing there? Don't you like eating?"
Qi Daya raised her head and smiled faintly, her tone bitter: "My mother said that we are born to lose money. We will get married in the future and don't deserve to eat good food. I think it would be a waste to eat it, so it's better to leave it to you and grandpa."
Since she was born, Zeng Yueru has always been saying the words "money-losing commodity". Whenever the two sisters eat more, they can hear these three words from Zeng Yueru's mouth.
Over time, the two girls subconsciously believed that they had no value at all and were just a good-for-nothing money-loser.
The only way I can repay them is to take good care of my parents, the only blood in the family.
Qi Man: ...
Girls of this era also have a hard life.
"You eat whatever Grandpa and I eat every day. I don't want to hear similar words again. If you don't want to eat what I give you, just throw it away."
Although the two sisters lived a hard life, she didn't like to hear such talk as it sounded noisy.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to eat and take a nap, or sneak into the space to practice.
Being suddenly confronted like this, Qi Daya felt a little scared, fearing that her cousin also hated them in the same way.
She lowered her eyes and looked at the soft and fluffy bread in her hand. The tempting aroma almost made her greedy. For a moment, she felt a mixture of emotions.
Qi Man half-crouched beside Grandpa Qi's wheelchair and said in a soft voice, "Grandpa, Man Man is a little sleepy, so I'll go to bed first. If you are sleepy, you should also go to bed early and don't stay up too late."
Having said that, he turned and walked into the room.
I don’t want to listen to their nagging anymore, so I’m going back to my room to sleep.
Looking at the tightly closed door, Qi Daya was terrified and asked anxiously, "Grandpa, did we make my cousin angry again? I don't have any bad intentions. I just wanted to leave this good thing for you."
After all, they have given away all the good things they had since they were young.
Qi Daya didn't eat, and Erya didn't dare to eat either. She stared at the bread in her hands, drooling.
So fragrant, so soft, I want to eat it!
Could this bread be better than white steamed buns?
Grandpa Qi looked at his granddaughter who looked worried, and explained, "Manman has a cheerful personality, so don't say such discouraging words to her in the future. If there is something delicious in the future, you can keep it or eat it, it's up to you."
Although he felt sorry for his two granddaughters, Grandpa Qi still doted on Qi Man more.
After all, he is Manman's only close relative, and she can't rely on the other two families.
Qi Daya was so moved that she took a bite of the soft bread. The rich milky aroma with a hint of oil filled her entire mouth. It was fragrant, sweet and soft. It was the most delicious thing she had ever eaten in her life.
Seeing her elder sister eating, Erya began to eat voraciously. After taking a bite, she couldn't help saying that it was delicious. She took several more bites impatiently. Her cheeks were bulging like a little hamster.
She felt that her cousin might have brought them back simply because she liked them.
Anyway, talk less, do more, and just eat what your cousin gives you.
These things my cousin gave me are all good things. If I eat and drink enough, do more housework, serve grandpa, and be a good girl, my cousin might be able to give me more delicious food.
Erya was fantasizing while enjoying the delicious food.
The next day, everyone knew that Qi Laosan's family had been struck by lightning. When they went to work, the villagers discussed it with great interest and had a great time chatting about it.
The couple were beaten so badly that they were so sore all over that they couldn't get up the next day. They had to ask their son to ask the village chief for leave.
As soon as Qi Man opened her eyes, the system sign-in voice came from her mind.
[Sign in on the third day of the 80s, and you will receive a ladies' watch, 20 chapters of national tickets, 20 boxes of French desserts at random, and a box of milk to replenish brain power and relieve fatigue. A total of 50 bottles have been distributed to the space system. Please check them. 】
Qi Man didn't care. Instead, she changed into new clothes, stretched at the door, and looked at the slowly rising sun, feeling emotional.
Great, another day of playing shit!
The two sisters got up early in the morning. Today's working time was in the afternoon, and they originally wanted to get up and make breakfast.
However, the kitchen was full of high-quality rice, high-quality flour, and some eggs, all of which were precious things. The two didn't know how to start, so they simply cleaned the yard and fed the chickens in the chicken coop. Then they sat in the yard, staring at each other, not knowing what to do.
Qi Man turned back to the room, took out four bottles of milk from the space and placed them in the yard, and said softly, "One bottle of milk per person."
The two sisters were flattered. Qi Daya was about to speak when she suddenly remembered what her grandfather had said. The words she had subconsciously wanted to save for her grandfather were immediately swallowed back into her stomach.
Erya was well-behaved. She took a bottle of milk and thanked Qi Man sweetly: "Thank you, cousin!"
Qi Man smiled sweetly: "You're welcome. Ask the village chief for leave today and don't go to work. I'll take you to town to buy some clothes this afternoon. The clothes you're wearing are no longer wearable."
Qi Daya looked down at her clothes, which had turned white from washing. They were pilling, had some snags on them, and had several holes in them. But these clothes were her best clothes, and her old nagging habit suddenly came back.
"Cousin, my clothes are still wearable, so there's no need to waste that money. You should keep it for grandpa's medical treatment!"
Qi Man: ...
I am speechless and have nothing to say.
This girl is only in her twenties, why is she nagging like an old man?
