Chapter 72: Save it for Shouye to marry a wife



"Open the system panel."

"Confirmed living organ donation."

The whole family burst into tears. After Zhang Shuguang finished operating the system, he didn't even listen to the subsequent system rewards and directly closed the system.

Zhang Xiangdong could never have imagined that the harm he had done to the old man today prompted Zhang Shuguang to make such a painful decision.

Because of his cruelty, he directly killed his eldest son.

Zhang Shuguang was furious at this moment. He had never wanted to kill someone so much before.

What era is this? It's a time of starvation. When people are desperately hungry, their moral standards will be lowered infinitely, and they may do anything.

Zhang Xiangdong's actions are stirring up confrontation and are really pushing his family into a desperate situation!

"Grandpa and grandma, please stop crying. You can't punish yourself for other people's mistakes.

That kind of heartless guy is not worth your tears.

What we need to do now is to work hard to live a good life and make them regret what they did in the past."

Even though he was extremely angry inside and the whole family was crying like that, he had to suppress his anger and try to act indifferent in order to comfort his grandparents.

"Grandpa, don't be sad, my brother will take care of that bastard.

Big Brother told me that no matter who bullies us, Big Brother will not let them have an easy time, and Big Brother will definitely vent your anger on your behalf."

Zhang Shengli is now very confident when speaking. The friends who used to bully him have all been disciplined by his elder brother and have become obedient. Today they even come to play with him.

"Grandson, don't you dare do anything reckless. After all, our reputation is not good. It's better to have less trouble than more."

After the two previous incidents, Zhang Qingchun knew that his eldest grandson was good at fighting, but he still didn't want to let his eldest grandson get into conflicts with others because of him.

"Grandpa, don't worry about this matter. I know what's going on. Let's eat first."

Zhang Shuguang handed the old man a steamed bun, broke off half for himself, and ate it in small bites.

After dinner, Zhang Shuguang distributed the clothes he bought for his family.

The gift for grandma was a dark blue slant-breasted button-down blouse and a pair of pants of the same color.

The gift for grandpa was a navy blue buttoned top and a pair of cotton and linen pants of the same color.

The gift for my mother was a Dacron floral top and a pair of gray Dacron pants.

The clothes of my younger brother and sister are the best looking. My younger brother’s is a children’s version of a short-sleeved sailor shirt, paired with a pair of blue pants, making him look like a little sailor.

My sister is wearing a colorful little dress. To match it, the system also gave her white socks and small leather shoes, which is really thoughtful.

"Brother, what kind of clothes are these? I've never seen them before!"

Zhang Shengli couldn't let go of the sailor shirt.

From childhood to adulthood, he has never worn a new piece of clothing. All of them were altered from clothes that were too small for his older brother.

"Mom, Panpan wants to wear flowery clothes, and she wants to wear them now."

The little girl didn’t know what a skirt was, she just thought colorful ones looked pretty.

"Why would you wear new clothes tonight? It's time to go to bed soon. I'll give you a bath tonight and you can wear new clothes tomorrow morning."

"Oh well!"

The little girl knew that acting coquettishly only worked on her two brothers, but had no effect on her mother.

Seeing that his grandfather had finished his meal, Zhang Shuguang directly opened the carton of Zhonghua cigarettes and handed one to his grandfather.

"Grandpa, I see you've been reluctant to smoke those two packs of cigarettes, so I brought you another one this time."

The old man used to love smoking and drinking, but in recent years, in order to support his three siblings, he has lived frugally and given up all his hobbies.

"I've ruined my life smoking this, grandson. You'd better quit. Just bring me some big leaf tobacco next time. Grandpa has a pipe."

In the eyes of the old man, Zhonghua cigarettes at 60 cents a pack are an absolute luxury. That's equivalent to 20 eggs!

"Grandpa, don't worry about this little money. Your eldest grandson can still afford to smoke and drink."

Without waiting for the old man to speak, Zhang Shuguang picked up the matches on the table and lit his cigarette.

"You kid, your grandpa finally managed to get him to quit smoking, and you let him smoke again. From now on, grandma will have to smell his cigarettes."

The old lady complained, but her face didn't look unhappy at all.

Having spent most of their lives together, she has long been accustomed to her husband's snoring at night and the smell of cigarettes on his clothes.

"Grandpa and grandma, this is the money from selling the blind bear today. Please keep it."

Zhang Shuguang took out three bundles of black silk from his bag.

“Cough cough cough…”

Zhang Qingchun was choked by the smoke and started coughing violently.

"Grandson, how much is this?"

Liu Guixiang asked in a trembling voice.

"Two thousand eight hundred and fifty."

Zhang Shuguang knew that his grandparents would be shocked if he took out so much money.

"Can a blind bear be sold for so much money?"

The old man's hands were shaking as he held the cigarette.

Now a strong laborer can only earn 20 cents a day, which is more than 2,800 yuan. How many days of work does it take to save that much money?

The old man counted on his fingers for a long time but still couldn't figure it out.

"Grandpa, bear meat is the same as wild boar meat, including bones and internal organs. One pound is two pieces, so the total is 850 pieces.

It's so expensive that it's like a bear's paw. The factory paid 500 yuan for one bear's paw."

Zhang Shuguang explained to them.

"Oh my god, a bear paw costs 500 yuan. Can eating it make me immortal or immortal?"

A bear paw without bones actually doesn't have much meat, but it costs five hundred yuan each. Such a high price is beyond the old couple's cognition and imagination.
