After Sheng Yi left, Zhu Qinghao took the remaining food to the cowshed.
Sheng Yi knew about her family's situation, so he made extra portions of each dish, leaving quite a few for the cowshed.
Seeing that no one was around that night, Zhu Qinghao set off early. When she arrived at the cowshed with the food, Zhu Qingyun and Zhen Zhu were just boiling water to prepare a meal.
So she quickly stepped forward and stopped them.
"Auntie, Mom, stop cooking! I brought you food. Everyone come over and eat while it's hot."
Zhu Qingyun was peeling cabbage leaves when she heard Zhu Qinghao's words. She paused for a moment, then turned her head.
"Is there enough food? Should we stir-fry some more cabbage?"
Zhu Qinghao shook her head and walked over with the enamel basin in her hand.
"There's enough to eat, no need to cook anymore."
She brought not only the braised pork and stir-fried beef that Sheng Yi had made, but also a large bowl of stir-fried greens, and a large basin of "pig-killing stew" that she had previously stocked up at the state-run restaurant. It contained both vegetables and meat, more than enough for the whole family.
As for staple food, she was worried that the food she brought wouldn't be enough, so she took out a lot of steamed buns and mantou that she had stocked up before, to ensure that everyone could eat their fill.
Seeing that she was really well prepared, Zhu's family didn't refuse and all sat down to eat together.
After confirming that Zhu Qinghao had finished eating and didn't need to eat anymore, they started eating on their own, while Zhu Qinghao sat quietly watching them.
It was just a simple scene, but in her eyes it felt incredibly warm and she couldn't get enough of it.
After they finished eating, Zhenzhu pulled her into the house and handed her all the money and banknotes they had found after Zhu Qinghao left.
“My dear, this is the money and coupons that your father and I brought with us when we came. Now that we are in the cowshed, you buy everything for us and we don’t need any money, so your mother thought we might as well give it to you to keep safe.”
If you want to buy something or spend money elsewhere, don't hesitate, just spend it. Your parents trust you.
Just then, Zhu Qingyun walked in and, in the same way, pulled her in and stuffed money into her hands.
Zhu Qinghao looked at them with great confusion and hurriedly asked:
"Mom, Aunt, didn't my sister-in-law tell you? I have money. I brought all the things you gave me before you went to the countryside. I don't lack money."
Zhu Qingyun and Zhen Zhu exchanged a glance and smiled helplessly. In the end, it was Zhen Zhu who spoke.
"We know you have money, but we don't need it if it's with us, so just keep it."
But to their surprise, Zhu Qinghao did not obey this time and refused to accept it no matter what.
"Mom, Aunt, don't worry, listen to me."
You should keep these money and tickets yourselves. I won't be staying here all the time in the future; I'll definitely need to go back to Kyoto occasionally.
If I take all the money and tickets with me, and you're left here, what will you do if you need them urgently?
And my cousin's wife is pregnant with twins. Shouldn't you set aside some money to buy some things openly later?
Zhu Qingyun stepped forward at this moment and said gently:
"Don't worry, I've already saved the money your cousin-in-law needs, so you don't need to worry about it."
"Just accept what's offered to you. You have such a large family; they need food, clothing, and other necessities. We'll feel more at ease if you have more money on hand."
