Chapter 60: Tuncai



So he took out a big unity note from his hand and handed it to him. After thinking about it, he thought about going to buy groceries soon. After hesitating for a moment, he took out another big unity note and said, "Here, one is your pocket money, and one is for today's groceries."

Gu Huaijin took one from Song Zhidao and said, "One is enough. I don't usually need to spend money."

If Song Zhi hadn't known that he had no other intentions when he said this, he would have really suspected that he was implying that he was a big spender.

"Just take it if I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense?" Song Zhi shoved the remaining big unity into his hand with some annoyance, and then said softly, "Let's do it this way from now on. Ten yuan of your monthly salary will be your pocket money, and I'll keep the rest. That's it. No objections."

Gu Huaijin went out to buy groceries, and Song Zhi was alone at home. He suddenly remembered the wool he bought when he went to get his cotton-padded clothes a few days ago, so he took it out and prepared to knit two scarves.

First, prepare a ball of yarn so that it will be easier to knit. She also learned to knit scarves for a while when she was in junior high school, but the techniques she learned were very basic and she was not very skilled. Now she suddenly wants to knit, but for a moment she can't remember how to cast on the needle. After hesitating for a few minutes, she decided to go to the next door to ask.

"Knit a scarf? Let me see." Qin Xue heard Song Zhi asking Zhao Yun how to knit a scarf, and she also left. She came over, picked up the wool, looked at it, and said, "Sister-in-law, if you trust me, you can let me knit it. Usually when we have nothing to do in the office, several of us teachers often knit scarves."

Qin Xue is a very shy person and speaks softly. The fact that she took the initiative to take on the task shows that she is really good at knitting.

She was just a half-baked person wandering around, with only theoretical knowledge but no practical experience. She thought that it would be really difficult for her to knit it herself.

Song Zhi was very surprised to hear her say this. "Really? Will it take up your time?"

Zhao Yun continued, "Their teachers have nothing to do after class. Whether they eat sunflower seeds or knit a scarf, no one will bother them. It's a good way to kill time. Xiao Song, just let her knit. The scarf Dongdong wore a few days ago was knitted by Xiao Xue."

Afraid that Song Zhi wouldn't believe it, Zhao Yun also mentioned that she had asked about the scarf Dongdong was wearing two days ago, and it was woven by Qin Xue.

Now Song Zhi wanted Qin Xue to try it even more. After all, she had seen that scarf two days ago. Both the style and the pattern were very beautiful. She was very envious at the time. She didn't expect that the craftsman was right next to her. Well, she was looking forward to it.

Qin Xue nodded embarrassedly, indicating that his mother was right.

"Xiaoxue, I won't be polite then. Please help me knit two scarves, but I can't let you do it for free. I'll give you one dollar as labor fee for two scarves." Song Zhi also gave a higher price based on the market price, and he didn't mean to take advantage of him.

Zhao Yun's expression changed when he heard her say this. He said angrily, "Xiao Song, there's no reason for you to ask for money. We usually eat the delicious food you cook without asking for money. If you say that again, we will be angry."

"Yes, sister-in-law, it's just a matter of convenience for me to knit a scarf for you. I would be ashamed to ask you for money." Qin Xue said seriously.

Seeing them like this, Song Zhi had no choice but to give up and apologized to them repeatedly, "It's my fault, it's my fault, why are you still talking about money!"

Having said that, she thought in her heart that taking advantage of others for nothing was not a good thing. That was just her personality. She was always afraid of taking advantage of others, and whenever someone helped her, she would quickly think about returning the favor.

Neighbors will develop feelings for each other after living together for a long time. Isn’t it often said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors? Whether neighbors or relatives, there must be give and take.

Song Zhi put the wool at Zhao Yun's house and asked Qin Xue to help knit it. She went back to prepare dinner. As the weather was getting colder, it got dark earlier and earlier. Not only was it snowing today, but it was dark before five o'clock. She had no choice but to go back and cook.

She wasn't very hungry that night, so she planned to make some noodle soup to warm her stomach. When Gu Huaijin came back with radishes and cabbages, she was rolling noodles and said, "Buy so much!"

Song Zhi looked at the cart of vegetables in front of him and felt a little headache.

"The old man said that once it snows here in winter, it can last for several days and the roads are blocked, so we should prepare more."

Song Zhi gave him a forced smile, "Now, let's eat first, and then we'll clean up together after dinner."

Gu Huaijin said, "I'd better..."

Song Zhi interrupted him, "It won't take a while, the meal will be ready soon."

Seeing her resolute attitude, Gu Huaijin could only say, "I'll put the vegetables down first and send the cart back."

"Okay, you go and send it off first."

While Gu Huaijin was delivering the car, she kept working and quickly made the soup noodles.

While eating, Song Zhi suddenly asked, "Does this radish need to be buried? Or can it be placed directly in the cellar?"

A few days ago, she saw that the cabbages next door were buried, but she didn’t understand why they had to be buried, or whether they had to be buried.

Forgive her for having rarely been to the countryside since she could remember. Even in the city, supermarkets sell cabbage and radishes in winter. The elderly in her family never taught her how to store radishes.

Gu Huaijin was eating without saying a word. When Song Zhidu thought he wouldn't answer, he suddenly said, "I'll go ask later."

“…”

"Host, radishes need to be buried in the winter, otherwise they will freeze easily."

The system's mechanical voice rang in his mind, and Song Zhi replied with amusement, "Then why didn't you say it just now?"

The system said pitifully, "Host, you didn't ask me!" There was a sound of asking for a beating in the words.

Song Zhi choked, feeling that having this system in his hands was useless and would only cause trouble everywhere.
