Chapter 17 Withdrawal
Chen Yongxing shrugged and said, "She was just here, saying she was going to get some octopuses to eat." He took a few steps forward towards Chen Yongnian and asked in a low voice, "Brother, has sister-in-law suffered some kind of shock and gone mad?"
Chen Yongnian was very dissatisfied with his brother's statement.
Although Wan Qiqi has been acting strangely these past two days, he doesn't think she's crazy; she's just not quite there yet.
And isn't this kind of wife better than before?
He gently patted Chen Yongxing's shoulder, "She's your sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense!"
Although he didn't know what Wan Qiqi wanted to do with the eight-legged insect, he felt that she must have her reasons for doing so.
Half an hour later, Wan Qiqi returned from outside, still carrying a basket with motionless hairy crabs inside.
Wang returned from outside, carrying a basket containing half a bag of stale rice and some sunflowers. Upon closer inspection, there were also two or three eggs.
Wan Qiqi was having Chen Yongnian light the firewood to prepare to steam the crabs when she turned around and saw Wang Shi. "Mother, I'll cook tonight, you can rest!"
Wang was somewhat flattered and couldn't help but go over to take a look. She happened to see the hairy crabs in the pot and immediately stopped her, saying, "Qiqi, what are you doing? You can't eat octopuses!"
Wan Qiqi had heard this sentence at least ten times today, and she didn't want to explain anymore. "Mom, this stuff is delicious, trust me!"
Before Wang could say anything more, Li Chongniang pulled her into the main room.
Through the cracks in the main room, the group watched the eldest son's family busy outside.
Chen Yongxing, resting his chin on his hand, couldn't help but say, "Sister-in-law, you look quite professional; you seem like you know how to cook."
"I think so too." Chen Yongliang couldn't help but feel a little expectant!
What do eight-legged worms actually taste like?
Wan Qiqi watched as steam rose from the pot, feeling very satisfied.
She avoided everyone and marinated the crabs, so they shouldn't have a fishy smell after steaming. With a little seasoning, they should taste great.
Just thinking about it made Wan Qiqi's mouth water!
But then I thought, crabs and wild vegetables alone wouldn't be enough to fill my stomach.
Crab is considered a "cold" food and should not be eaten in large quantities. Pregnant women should also avoid it, as it can be quite troublesome.
And the white rice she had taken out was gone, so what should she eat for her main meal?
Suddenly, she remembered that there was a locked box in the room where the original owner had been, and it seemed that even Chen Yongnian didn't know what was inside. She could exchange some more items and pretend that she had hidden them herself!
Thinking of this, Wan Qiqi immediately went back to her room, retrieved the key from her memory, and opened the box.
Inside the box was a wedding dress, which the original owner wore when she got married, and a hairpin, which she remembered Chen Yongnian had bought with several months' worth of wages earned while working as a laborer in town.
Holding the hairpin, she felt that Chen Yongnian was truly good to the original owner of this body, but unfortunately, the original owner did not know how to cherish it.
The box contained nothing but the wedding dress and hairpins, indicating that the original owner of this body was truly desperate and had to return to her parents' home to borrow grain.
Wan Qiqi opened the system store, looked at the food page for a long time, and finally decided to exchange for 10 jin of brown rice.
However, the box is limited in size, so she can't keep taking things out of it. If only the copper coins in the mall could be freely converted into cash!
[Ding! Do you want to use 200 coins to activate the cash-out function?]
"..." Wan Qiqi was speechless. They actually had to pay to activate this feature!
But she needs this feature.
【yes.】
After her reply, the page updated, and a withdrawal function was added next to the copper coins.
She earned 640 coins from buying crabs today, but that's half gone now. Adding the money she spent on brown rice and the rest of her money, she only has 387 coins left.
After hesitating for a while, she decided to take out 200 coins first and keep some, since there were no fees for withdrawals anyway.
In the blink of an eye, a handful of copper coins appeared in his hand. They felt heavy in his palm, giving him a sense of satisfaction.
She found a money bag, put the copper coins away, and left the room carrying the rice in her hand.
