Mrs. Liu went home for the New Year, and Song Kexia was pregnant, making it inconvenient for her to work, so Qin Muye volunteered to take over the cooking job.
Together they put up couplets and hung lanterns, and the festive atmosphere of the New Year was overwhelming.
Song Kexia pasted the paper-cuts that Mrs. Liu had cut earlier on the windows.
"Look, is it beautiful?"
"It looks good." Qin Muye looked at her with deep eyes and tucked the loose hair behind her ears. "You go watch TV, I'll go cook."
Song Kexia was a little skeptical. He had never cooked before, so he wondered if it would be possible.
"Why don't I do it? Mrs. Liu has already washed and cut everything, so cooking won't be a hassle."
"No, I'll do it and let you taste my cooking skills."
Seeing how confident he was, Song Kexia decided to give him a chance.
"How about we have hot pot tonight?"
"Okay, I'll go cook."
The taste of hot pot is always good, so Song Kexia went to the living room to watch TV with peace of mind.
The phone happened to ring, and she picked it up. "Hello, who is it?"
"Xia Xia, it's mom."
Song Kexia laughed, "Mom, did you receive the New Year's goods that I asked Sister Hongshuang to bring back?"
"Got it. You're really something. Why spend so much money and buy so many clothes? Your dad and I have clothes to wear."
"That's autumn clothing made by the factory I work with. We can offer the factory price, it's not expensive at all."
After hearing her say this, Wang Guihua finally felt less heartbroken.
"How much is it?"
"A set of autumn clothes costs 26 yuan, but it costs 32 yuan at the department store, which is 6 yuan cheaper."
Under normal circumstances, Wang Guihua would definitely not be willing to spend twenty-six yuan on clothes.
But now with the department store pricing for comparison, she felt she had saved six dollars by spending twenty-six dollars on clothes.
They bought four sets of clothes, so they saved twenty-four dollars and felt like they made a profit.
"You bought too much. Your dad and I only need one set each. You also bought cotton-padded clothes. What a waste of money."
“The cotton-padded jacket was also sold at the factory price, so it wasn’t expensive.
Oh, Mom, have you seen the refrigerator? You can just plug it in and use it when the time comes."
Speaking of this, Wang Guihua's heart was bleeding.
"If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. Why did you buy such an expensive thing? We don't even need a refrigerator at home. You're really wasting your money."
Song Kexia protested, "Your son-in-law bought it for you, you can't scold me."
"You don't even bother to persuade him, and you let him spend so much money."
Wang Guihua is very worried because the gaps between her daughter and son-in-law's fingers are so wide.
They have to raise three children at once, and I heard that everything is expensive in Hai City.
They have no land and have to buy even chopped green onions to eat. How much does it cost to live?
If you don't save money now, how will you get the money to support your children later?
Song Kexia disagreed, "You don't have to worry about it. If he can spend money, he can make money..."
Hearing a cough next to her, she asked, "Mom, is there someone next to you? Why does the voice sound so familiar? Is it my dad?"
Wang Guihua glared at Li Dachuan with dissatisfaction. She had just talked to her daughter nicely, but he had to make some noise.
Li Dachuan was very confident. She had been talking to her daughter for so long, and it was probably her turn to say a few words to her.
"Let me talk to my daughter."
Seeing him looking at her eagerly, Wang Guihua reluctantly handed him the phone.
"Hurry up."
Li Dachuan picked up the phone and asked with a smile, "Xia Xia, are you doing well over there?"
"I'm doing well. I've taken a leave of absence from school and am now at home taking care of the baby."
Although Wang Guihua didn't hold the receiver, she leaned over to listen to her.
Hearing this, he said, "You should ask for leave. You are pregnant. It must be tiring to go to school every day."
Li Dachuan looked at her and said, "I'm talking to my daughter. She can't hear you if you talk here."
"Then why don't you tell her?"
Wang Guihua really wanted to snatch the phone away.
Li Dachuan: "It's good that you took a leave and stayed at home to take care of yourself."
After saying this, he didn't know what to say.
Before making the call, he thought many times about what he wanted to ask, but when he held the phone in his hand, he didn't know how to start.
"Is Ono here?"
Song Kexia glanced at the kitchen door and saw a figure moving around in the kitchen, so she said, "He's cooking."
"Xiao Ye is cooking? It's good that you can cook. I can take care of you in the future."
Qin Muye had just brought the charcoal stove to the dining room. Seeing Song Kexia waving at him, he walked over.
"What's wrong?"
"My parents are calling." Song Kexia said into the phone, "Mom and Dad, Qin Muye is here. I asked him to talk to you."
Qin Muye sat next to her and naturally took the phone from her hand.
"Happy New Year, father-in-law and mother-in-law."
Wang Guihua snatched the phone away, "Xiao Ye, I heard you were preparing the New Year's Eve dinner. You must have worked so hard."
"I didn't do anything."
Qin Muye was telling the truth. He just boiled the water and took the vegetables out of the refrigerator.
But Wang Guihua didn't think so. How could she not know how hard it was to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner?
He is a grown man, but he actually prepared the New Year's Eve dinner, which is a big plus for Wang Guihua.
Hearing what he said, Wang Guihua felt that he was being modest.
"It's great that you're willing to do it. You're better than Xia Xia's dad. He only knows how to eat, but he doesn't do any manual work at all."
