"Yes, Grandpa is right. The temperament of city people is very different from that of village people."
"Of course I do. I don't work or worry, and I look pretty relaxed. By the way, Xiaoyu, you said the current governor hasn't even contacted your father. Does that mean the farm business is doomed?"
"I don't know. If he wants to sell it, we'll sell it. If he doesn't, forget it. It's fine to live here."
She also found it strange. He wasn't asking her to give it away, but was it so difficult to sell one? Logically speaking, since he was the governor, it shouldn't be a problem for him to open a small farm, right?
"You're right. Whether it's sold or not, we have a house to live in, so there's no rush. You're pregnant now, and I don't want you to worry too much."
The day before Liu Shunzi and his group left, they went to the provincial capital to purchase a lot of things. Since it was cold now, they could buy more without worrying about the things going bad.
"Why did you buy so much roast chicken?"
"Eat it. You can warm it up on the way and eat it."
"Are you planning to eat meat and drink on the road?" Zhao Dashu glared. Why did he think that?
"Why not? We're not driving, so what can't a few guys do in the car?"
"You guys are awesome! Do you want some braised pork knuckle?"
"Of course. We've already agreed that we have to enjoy a comfortable life along the way. Are you envious? Come with us, envious?"
"No, I'm not envious at all. Isn't it nice to be at home on a snowy day? Isn't it nice to sleep on a big kang? At home, I can drink a few cups just like the old man."
The women were looking for dry goods, fabrics, snacks and candies, and they planned to buy all the goods directly.
Everyone also bought a full-month gift for Zhao Xiaoyu's child in advance. When she gives birth tomorrow, they probably won't come to the provincial capital, so they'll give the gifts first.
Let's get together again when I visit my parents' home tomorrow.
I carry a lot of things home in big and small bags. When I go out occasionally, my neighbors are amazed when they see me. How much do so many things cost?
A clerk who was leaving the office happened to see this and lowered his eyes to hide his jealous look.
He works so hard for a day, but his spending is not as much as others spend in a day.
Sometimes he really felt it was unfair, because the only valuable thing in the family was the house they lived in, which was left to them by their ancestors.
His grandfather, his father, and he, three generations, just lived a life just barely enough to make ends meet.
He was considered to be a good person, having managed to get a minor official position, but his job was not lucrative at all, as he had no connections in the government office, so he could only do this kind of work.
Alas, God is unfair, and it is even more frustrating to compare yourself with others.
What on earth is the new guy next door doing?
Why are there so many people at their house every day? This winter, a group of people go shopping every now and then, and they always come back with things.
It’s even more exaggerated recently. They are going to open a shop?
"Master!"
"Come in."
The daughter-in-law felt very uncomfortable staring at him at the door. He was rich, but they could only envy him.
"Let me take another look."
"Don't look at it. No matter how many there are, they are not yours. It makes me feel bad."
Forget it, I can’t stand being poured cold water by my own man. It seems that I can’t take her away even if I look at her again.
"How come they're so rich? Shops deliver everything they buy to their door. Boss, who are they?"
"I don't know, they all look very crude, like country folk coming to the city, with rough faces. But they're all wearing nice things.
Not only does she dress well, she's even generous with her clothes, showing she has plenty of money. You can't see through her, not at all."
He doesn't even know what the Zhao family does for a living?
All I know is that he is a merchant. There are many merchants living nearby. Some of them are as carefree as they are. The whole family stays at home and I almost never see them go out to work.
What business don't you take a look at yourself?
"I went to their house several times, but I couldn't find out anything." The woman said dejectedly, "Everyone in this family keeps their mouths shut.
