Chapter 83 No Worries About Meat and Sugar
Even my father-in-law, who is the most capable and highest earner in the family, can't earn more than ten yuan a month!
Li Chunhua regretted eating the whole can of beef last night. If she had known it was so valuable, she should have saved it to eat slowly.
After all, I probably only get to eat such precious canned food once in my life.
Jiang Manyun then said in a serious tone, "Auntie, you're being too formal. It's normal for children to share snacks with each other, especially since Tingyun doesn't usually like to eat these things."
The Chen family was shocked when they heard the last sentence: "There are actually people who don't like meat and sugar?!"
Only Helian Jiao remained calm. She had known for a long time that the big bad dragon didn't like to eat, and she had even felt quite sorry for him.
However, because the big bad dragon kept stealing her last bite of food, she lost all sympathy for him.
Ma Xiulian wasn't one to fuss or be fussy. Seeing that she insisted on not taking the money, she said, "Well, we can't just take it for free. How about this, when Director Gu comes to pick up Tingyun at noon, have him take some soaked bamboo shoots and dried wild mushrooms from home with him."
Jiang Manyun didn't refuse, and nodded with a smile, saying, "Okay! Old Gu likes this kind of thing."
Although she genuinely didn't care about a few snacks, Ma Xiulian's reciprocal attitude and lack of intention to take advantage made her feel comfortable.
This way, she can feel more at ease letting her son stay at Old Chen's house, and the two families can visit each other more often to look after each other.
Her generosity was noticed by Zhou Zhaodi and Li Chunhua: she would give away things worth tens of yuan without batting an eye.
It's easy to imagine that Director Gu's family is definitely not just rich!
Zhou Zhaodi immediately began to calculate in her mind how likely it was that she could marry her little daughter to Young Master Gu.
If her daughter marries into the Gu family, will she, as the mother-in-law, ever worry about not having meat or candy to eat?!
However, the moment her gaze fell upon Gu Tingyun's handsome face, her excited and fervent heart instantly turned cold.
...Young Master Gu from the capital probably wouldn't even look at her daughter.
But the moment she saw her beautifully sculpted niece, she became excited again.
If my daughter won't do, my niece will do too!
With such a beautiful and fair-skinned appearance, my baby will definitely marry a city person in the future, and it's not impossible that she'll marry someone from the capital!
It's only been a few days, and she's already completely smitten with Young Master Gu, showering him with sweets and meat.
She's made up her mind: from now on, she'll treat her precious baby like her own daughter!
Li Chunhua, however, didn't think that far ahead; she just wanted her son to play with Gu Tingyun as well.
Boys should play with other boys; what's the fun in playing with girls?
Once my son gets to know Young Master Gu well, all those candies and canned goods will belong to him!
Helian Jiao, unaware that the other woman was trying to steal her man, was showing off a large, colorful butterfly to the big bad dragon: "Look, my uncle made this kite for me, isn't it beautiful?"
Making furniture requires colored paints and coatings, and there are always some leftover wood scraps. In his spare time, Chen Jianmin made a kite for each of his nephews and nieces.
My nieces are all big butterflies, and my nephews are all big eagles, much more exquisite and beautiful than the paper kites that rural children casually make.
Although Young Master Gu overlooked the more beautiful and exquisite ones, he genuinely praised, "Beautiful."
So the little princess raised her chin and said, "Then I'll put it for you later too."
