Chapter 18: Something is better than nothing



Chen Xuanxuan has always lived in a complicated environment since she was a child.

Since her biological parents in her previous life became rich, they each found their own children and played their own games. Then, they re-established their families, divorced, and re-established their families.

As a burden that neither party wanted, she had attended three weddings of her biological parents...

Therefore, she has always been thick-skinned and completely open-minded about these emotional issues.

Some relatives felt sorry for her after knowing her growing environment, but she didn't feel anything at all.

She has lived alone since she was a child. When she was under 18 years old, her parents gave her 2,000 yuan every month.

Later, she went to college, and her parents, who were already very rich, gave her 5,000 every month

. The money added up to 10,000 a month.

It was a pity that she made money too easily at the beginning. From childhood to adulthood, she had no awareness of saving money. As a result, after she graduated from college and started working, her parents didn't give her much money, and she slowly realized that making money was not easy.

Especially after buying a house and a car, she paid off the mortgage and car loan, and her credit card was almost empty every month.

Sometimes, she even owed a lot of debt on Huabei.

However, due to her spending habits since she was young, she has developed an instinctive consciousness of spending lavishly, so she has always had an illusion that she is not actually a pauper.

After all, no matter what, she has her own house and her own car!

At this time, Chen Xuanxuan, who was drinking a big bowl of red date, egg and taro porridge, couldn't help but feel sad when she thought of her house and car that she had not yet paid off the mortgage.

"Wife, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Gu Yanzhang suddenly looking at her nervously, Chen Xuanxuan shook her head lightly.

"It's okay, don't worry about me, just drink your porridge!"

Hearing this, Gu Yanzhang still looked at her worriedly, then lowered his head and drank the porridge seriously.

After finishing the bowl of porridge, Gu Yanzhang began to rub the dirt off his body.

Chen Xuanxuan accidentally saw it and suddenly felt her throat itchy. She even felt nauseous.

"Hey, I'm still eating!"

"If you feel itchy, add firewood and boil more water. Take a bath yourself, and you won't feel itchy anymore..."

Many rural people in ancient times did not take a bath regularly.

Because there were no water heaters in cold weather, they did not dare to take a bath. Some people living in water-scarce areas in the northwest even only take a bath three times in their lives.

They take a bath when they are just born, and once when they get married. When they die, when they are put into a coffin or a straw mat, someone will use some water to simply scrub them.

Three baths in a lifetime summed up their lives.

Chen Xuanxuan carefully mobilized the original owner's memory. She found that she was now living in the northwest of Dalong Country. However, she was still relatively lucky. She

did not live on the legendary Loess Plateau. Nor did she live in the desert and mountainous areas of Gansu Province.

At the foot of Gujiagang Mountain, there was a winding river. This small river also had a nice name. It was called Xiaoyue River.

In the middle and lower reaches of Xiaoyue River, various tributaries would converge into a big river.

This big river was called Dayue River.

Where would Dayue River flow to, Chen Xuanxuan found that she had no idea in her mind.

Feeling that there was no more useful information in her mind, Chen Xuanxuan sighed softly.

Most people of this generation have never traveled far. Some women are even more incredible, having never left the village for several times in their entire lives.

Just when Chen Xuanxuan was distracted, her eyes clearly caught that although the children at home said they washed their hands, their hands seemed to have been washed in vain.

Because their nails were not cut, they all had long nails. There

were a lot of black things in the nails. It looked a bit like black dirt, and a bit like soil.

Chen Xuanxuan used to love to talk about hygiene, and she couldn't stand other people being unclean.

So, after she put down her bowl of food, she began to instruct the man beside her. "Boss, can you help me wash the dishes?"

After saying that, Chen Xuanxuan walked slowly into her main room.

She had only made two purchases today, and she could go shopping once more.

While Chen Xuanxuan was searching for nail clippers on the Qionghehe app, Gu Yanzhang soaked the bowl she had just finished eating in boiling water. Feeling that the porridge left in her bowl had all been dissolved in the water, he fed the six children, one mouthful each.

"Are you full today?"

The six children nodded in unison. "Dad, we're full, we're all full. Look at our bellies..."

Seeing that the bellies of the children were all round, their faces were a little rosy, and they patted their bellies happily, Gu Yanzhang couldn't help but nodded.

"Your mother has had a hard life. She cooked and got all the meals these days. When you grow up, you must be filial to her..."

Hearing him say this, the six children in front of him nodded heavily.

"Dad, don't worry. If we don't obey our mother, who should we obey?"

At this time, Chen Xuanxuan didn't hear clearly at all. Her cheap husband outside was doing ideological work for her cheap children.

She only knew that after searching for nail clippers, she saw a series of products that broke her cognition.

She actually knew nail clippers.

And she was particularly familiar with them.

Because she used them every other day in the past.

It was because Chen Xuanxuan used them frequently in the past, so she really didn't understand why the specifications displayed on them were so large?

The specifications of this nail clipper are: one pound package. There is also a half-pound package.

One nail clipper is one pound, and the price is quite expensive. The list price is 28.8 yuan

. Chen Xuanxuan touched her head and thought carefully.

A nail clipper weighs one pound. How big is this thing?

Is this a nail clipper for giants?

There is also this half-pound package.

A small nail clipper weighs 250 grams. Haha, this thing is not practical. Besides, it is still quite expensive, 18.8 yuan

. Chen Xuanxuan felt that she could not afford it at all. So, she could only buy its trial package as her mood required.

After getting the trial package, Chen Xuanxuan's eyes were wide open.

Because the size of the nail clipper in her palm is 13 times the size of the nail clippers she usually uses!

This is too small.

It feels like it is for babies who are less than one year old.

However, Chen Xuanxuan still checked her nails. I feel that this thing can barely be used. Chen Xuanxuan thought about it and decided to make do with it.
