Li Man and Huo Jiansheng went to the supermarket and bought a lot of vegetables.
I also bought some fruits and Huang Duoduo’s favorite snacks.
The two of them returned home carrying large and small bags of things.
Seeing Zhang Yan, Huo Jiansheng politely called out, "Hello, Auntie!"
"Hey," Zhang Yan responded happily, and quickly took the bag from Huo Jiansheng: "You've worked so hard, are you tired? Go and have a rest first, Auntie can do it."
Huo Jiansheng pursed his lips and smiled, "I'm not tired, let me help you."
"No, no, you go and rest, I can do it myself." Zhang Yan said enthusiastically.
Li Man took off her coat and hung it on the hook in the entrance. She said, "Mom, don't worry about it. Jiansheng and I will cook a full banquet for you today."
Zhang Yan smiled so much that wrinkles appeared on her face. "Okay, then I'll just sit and wait for food."
Huang Duoduo stood aside, feeling a little awkward.
Zhang Yan winked at her.
She then called out awkwardly, "Uncle Huo, Mom."
Huo Jiansheng looked at Huang Duoduo and responded cheerfully, "Hey, hello! Duoduo."
"Hello to you too, Uncle Huo." Huang Duoduo said with a smile.
Li Man was somewhat surprised by Huang Duoduo's change. She subconsciously looked at Zhang Yan, who blinked at her with a smug look on her face.
Li Man smiled, handed the snacks he bought from the supermarket to Huang Duoduo, and said, "This is what your Uncle Huo bought for you. They are all your favorites."
Huang Duoduo happily took it and said, "Thank you, Mom, and thank you, Uncle Huo!"
"Okay, you watch TV with grandma, and mom and Uncle Huo will go cook." Li Man said with a smile.
"Okay." Huang Duoduo responded, picked up the bag and happily walked to the sofa and sat down.
…
Huang Dehan returned to where he stayed last night with instant noodles in his hand.
Because he didn't know where to go.
He put the braised eggs and sausage into the instant noodles and then started eating slowly.
After finishing the instant noodles, he threw the box into the corner.
Then he fell asleep.
When I woke up, it was already afternoon.
He was in no hurry to go out because he wanted to wait until dark.
After spending sixteen yuan today, he still has 144 yuan left.
This money could support him for a few days, so he was not in a hurry to go out and find money.
They say they are looking for money, but in fact they are just robbing.
The sky gradually darkened and the last ray of sunlight disappeared from the horizon.
After it was completely dark, he stood up from the ground, brushed the dust off his butt, put on a mask, and walked out.
It was too cold to sleep directly on the ground, so he wanted to go out and find a piece of wood or a cardboard box to put on the ground.
He went to the grocery store he had visited this afternoon.
The boss saw him and greeted him warmly: "Are you off work?"
Huang Dehan nodded in response.
He walked to the shelf and picked up instant noodles with ease.
Seeing Huang Dehan eating instant noodles again, the boss said, "Why don't you improve the food today for the Lantern Festival? How can we eat instant noodles every day?"
Huang Dehan said: "We haven't received our salary yet, and we have no money left."
The boss clicked his tongue twice and said, "I see you are not young anymore. Are you married? Is your family burden too heavy?"
Huang Dehan didn't want to pay attention to him, so he nodded perfunctorily and opened the instant noodles.
The boss understood what he meant and took the kettle to add water for him.
Huang Dehan said, "Boss, do you have any empty cartons?"
The boss smiled and said, "Of course we don't have any. The most common things I have here are cartons. What size do you want? I'll find one for you."
