Chapter 9: Children's Deposit: 36 Cents
Chen Qing's face turned red.
She always felt that the villain didn't believe it.
But the play has already come to this point, and we have no choice but to continue acting!
"However, since they have attacked me, I will not be polite. I will make a lot of money in the future so that they can't force us. And I have already thought of a way!"
"What is the solution?"
He Yuxiang felt that Chen Qing was unreliable.
He still vividly remembered the days of abuse he had suffered over the past six months, so it was impossible for him to believe her just because of what she said.
But she's a damn grown-up!
The only person in charge of the family.
If you don't believe it, you can only pretend to believe it!
"I've bought so many clothes in the past six months. Do you think I want to compete with Tian Mengya for beauty?"
"What else?"
"Of course not! I just want to investigate what kind of clothes are lacking in the market. I will start making clothes later. Just wait and see."
Chen Qing raised his head proudly.
The confidence in his eyes is dazzling.
It was the first time He Yuxiang saw her look like that, and he was a little dazed.
Chen Qing stood up, patted the top of his head, and went back to the house.
Let the two little guys digest it well.
As for stories, the best ones are half true and half false.
The original owner did leave a few days ago. When he just got his salary, he wanted to go to the black market to buy the latest leather shoes to surpass Tian Mengya, but he unexpectedly encountered the red armband.
She was also afraid of being discovered, so she rushed into a house in a panic, hid in someone's cupboard, and suffocated to death.
When Chen Qing came, it took him a long time to recover.
She sincerely hoped that when she came to this world, the original owner would go to her world. Although she was an orphan, she had money in her card!
That was all the money she had worked so hard to save. The original owner was so good at spending money that she must have spent all her money in the modern era. Otherwise, all the money she had saved by living frugally would not have been spent. That feeling would be really depressing!
What’s even more frustrating is that she still has to pay off the original owner’s debt!
Chen Qing bit off the thread angrily.
In another room, two children huddled together like abandoned cubs in the world.
He Yuxiang said to his sister: "Don't be afraid, I will never leave you."
He had a stern face and spoke in a tone like a little adult.
He Yuting hugged her knees with both hands, put her head on her legs, and said sullenly: "My aunt almost died."
"She's lying."
"real."
"It's fake. Oh, don't be so soft-hearted and trust her. I'll tell you a little secret. I've secretly saved some of the vegetables today. When you're hungry later, I'll cook them for you while she's at work."
He also hid meat two days ago.
Give them all to my sister.
"I'm going to get some water."
There were faucets installed in the large courtyard, but in a small courtyard like theirs, they could only get water from the row of faucets at the entrance of the alley.
He Yuting also rubbed her little butt and moved towards the bed: "I'll go too."
"good."
The family needs water for drinking, cooking, washing dishes, bathing, and laundry, and a lot of time is spent fetching water every day.
There are also rules for the time to fetch water. The more powerful the family is, the earlier they can fetch water. Originally, their family could fetch water in the evening, but now only their aunt works in the machinery factory, so they have to queue up at the latest time.
Six to half past six.
It was getting dark.
The two of them went out carrying two buckets each.
When the first bucket is full, the next bucket will be immediately added. The two siblings will then take the buckets full of water home, stand on a bench, and pour the water into the water tank. When they return, the second bucket is full, so they don't have to waste time waiting for water.
He Yuxiang is stronger than He Yuting, but he can't carry two buckets. He can only go and come back quickly, trying to get more water.
Aunt Yu at the entrance of the alley looked distressed, but in this kind of situation, although they could help at the beginning, no one would be willing to help for a long time.
"Xiao Yu, why is there purple medicine on your chin? Did your aunt beat you?"
"No, I fell."
He Yuting answered without turning her head, and put the handle of the wooden barrel on her shoulder, which would save more effort.
She walked home with a stern face.
As expected, there were voices criticizing my aunt behind me, but today was a little unusual as some people started talking about Yang Xiujin and Li Hehua.
"Do you think they are real?"
"It's hard to say. If it's fake, how could that shorty be so angry?"
"Well, Yang Xiujin is good-looking and gentle, so it's normal to like him. Why would that shorty compare himself with him?"
"Of course, but did you see the dwarf tiger today? He was covered in shit, so disgusting."
"They and I live in the same compound, and now I don't want to go home. This couple spoils the child all day long and doesn't know how to properly supervise him. How can he go anywhere?"
…
They are like messengers of justice, commenting on the people they meet.
He Yuxiang didn't want to listen at first.
I will listen to it today.
His father died in an accident before, and when she was comforting her mother, she said that her mother was a jinx!
It made his mother cry for a long time.
Now, let her have a taste of gossip!
The two siblings were having fun and filled the large water tank to the brim. They then went to get four more buckets and poured the bath water they needed for today into the pot to boil.
He Yuxiang first stuffed dry and flammable straw into the stove, and after the fire started, he put in small and flammable dead branches. He stuffed two more handfuls of straw, and the thin firewood soon caught fire. After the firewood was burning, he put in the larger dead branches to burn.
After you’re done, you don’t need to worry about it anymore.
But He Yuxiang checked the firewood at home and found that there was not much left.
The nearest mountain is ten kilometers away from them, and it is too much trouble to go back and forth. Most people discuss with the villagers about what to exchange and ask them to deliver it on time, or they use honeycomb coal.
Last time their family ran out of firewood, so his aunt asked him to go chop wood. He and his sister were busy from morning till night for most of half a month, until it rained for a week, and then they stopped chopping wood.
Now that the firewood is gone, I don’t know what she will do?
He Yuxiang was a little worried.
"Brother, here, one cent. I just went to sell the empty toothpaste tubes to the grandfather at the scrap yard."
Today's toothpaste tubes are made of a metal material, tin, so one toothpaste tube can be exchanged for one cent.
He Yuxiang put the money in his pocket.
When he bought groceries, he actually only spent 40 cents and hid 10 cents. Adding the current one cent, his total savings was 36 cents!
"We have thirty-six cents now, but we can't spend it carelessly, you know?"
"Uh-huh."
He Yuting knew it.
If you need money, you will use this money.
He Yuxiang asked his sister to watch the fire while he hid the money.
It's not that he doesn't trust his sister, it's just that she lies and blushes too easily.
My aunt often asks for money, so he has to hide the money.
After I hid the money, I heard my aunt's voice: "Where's the toothpaste?"
