Chapter 810 A small revenge
February 2th, the first day of the holiday.
In the early morning, the ground outside was covered with frost.
In the room, Xue Yuantong wrapped himself in a quilt and slept comfortably until eleven o'clock.
At half past eleven, she ran to Chuchu's house with a radiant face. Chuchu was cooking in the kitchen. Jiang Ning was sitting on a stool, eating peanuts, and the earthen pot was emitting an enticing aroma.
Xue Chuchu tied an apron around her waist, and her facial features were particularly soft. She whispered softly, "It's almost done."
Xue Yuantong immediately took the bowl out of the cupboard and placed it on the dining table. He glanced at Jiang Ning with a bit of contempt in his eyes and snorted, "What's the point of coming early? You're still not working."
"Alas, the burden of the family is borne by Chuchu and me~"
Jiang Ning sat there calmly, "Haha, I won the ribs from Uncle Zhang."
Uncle Zhang had a good business today. All the pork was sold out before 8 o'clock. He rode his Dayun motorcycle, carrying fresh pork ribs home, preparing to make some delicious dishes for his son to try at noon.
Who would have thought that as soon as I arrived at the bungalow, I saw my son holding a bamboo pole, trying to retrieve a badminton from the roof, but he failed several times.
He heard Jiang Ning say beside him that instead of using a bamboo pole to fish it out, it would be better to just step on the wall and look for it on the roof.
Although Uncle Zhang was an alcoholic, kept a vicious dog, and bullied weak neighbors, there was no doubt that he was a good father.
Uncle Zhang was very unhappy when he saw his son being taught by Jiang Ning. My son Ruyun is a candidate for a top university and will be a talent for a big city in the future. What right do you have to point fingers at him?
My son has lost face, so I’m here to take his revenge!
Butcher Zhang: "You sound like you can take it off!"
In just a few words, the bet was settled.
Then, Jiang Ning showed them what modern wall-climbing is.
He tapped the wall twice with his toes, like a dragonfly touching the water. His body instantly rose high, as if lifted by an invisible force, and flew to the roof to pick up the badminton.
Uncle Zhang lost two pounds of pork ribs while cursing.
Uncle Zhang has been slaughtering pigs for twenty years. The ribs he brought were specially reserved, and they are perfect for making soup.
Xue Chuchu was watching the fun from the side. When she saw Jiang Ning win the bet, she pursed her lips beautifully.
Xue Chuchu had never dared to think of such an outrageous thing before.
A ferocious man like Butcher Zhang would definitely be a tyrannical tyrant in the village.
From ancient times to the present, in rural areas, butchers are not easy to bully. Being able to kill pigs means being strong and able to use a knife.
As a result, Jiang Ning, a young boy, cured him and made him obedient. It felt like a magical experience.
With the spare ribs contributed by Butcher Zhang, Xue Chuchu took out the corn grown in her hometown and stewed corn and spare ribs soup at noon.
After Xue Yuantong heard this, he opened his eyes wide and said with great sorrow: "Why didn't you ask me to join you in making a bet with Uncle Zhang?"
For the first time, she hated sleeping in.
Jiang Ning: "You are still sleeping."
Xue Yuantong stressed: "Can't you wake me up?"
Xue Chuchu spoke for him: "If I had called you at that time, would it have been a bit deliberate?"
Jiang Ning glanced at Chuchu with an appreciative look, "Not bad, you've made progress."
He continued to cooperate: "What if Uncle Zhang cancels the bet? Wouldn't that be more trouble than gain?"
After hearing the testimonies of the two, Xue Yuantong realized that she had been careless, but she would never apologize, so she said, "Okay, I'll eat then~"
The lunch included pork ribs and corn soup, stir-fried lotus root, stir-fried beef tripe shreds, and some steamed buns and dumplings.
Jiang Ning took a photo and shared it in the class group.
This immediately attracted the attention of the classmates. Jiang Yanan said: "It looks quite rich!"
Afterwards, Shan Kaiquan, Guo Kunnan, Cao Kun and others posted photos of their first lunch during the winter vacation.
Lu Qiqi shared a photo of her Western food, including rare steak, rare fried eggs, and salad...
Zhang Chi looked at it with disdain: "Is this thing really that delicious?"
Duan Shigang: "I feel really disgusted when I see that runny egg yolk!"
Lu Qiqi: "Haha, what's it to you?"
Xin Youling saw the trend of quarreling and showed up in time, @Jiang Ning: "That's great, did you do it yourself?"
Jiang Ning: “A friend did it.”
"Your friend is such a great cook?" Xin Youling was surprised. Anyone who could be friends with Jiang Ning should be of the same age.
Jiang Ning: "Well, she's a pretty good cook."
"Great." Xin Youling knows almost nothing about cooking except cooking noodles and wontons.
Even a lazy guy like Duan Shigang would show kindness to a girl who can cook: "You are so virtuous!"
Guo Kunnan: “There are very few girls who can cook nowadays.”
Everyone in the group was praising me with all kinds of compliments.
Xue Yuantong didn't play with her phone. She concentrated on eating. She took a bite of the bun and said, "Chu Chu, the buns your mother steamed are more delicious than before."
Xue Chuchu smiled and said, "My mother learned some skills from the kitchen staff at the company."
Xue Yuantong blinked: "What technique?"
"Techniques for dough fermentation. My mom said the most important thing about making dumplings is the texture of the dough..." the two girls chattered.
Jiang Ning tasted a piece of lotus root, which he picked from Qingyu Lake. It was very crisp and refreshing.
He drank pork ribs and corn soup again. When he was a child, Jiang Ning always felt that the two things would have a mixed taste if stewed together. After all, corn is sweet, and pork ribs soup tastes better when it is made salty. Who knew that when he really ate it, he found that they blended perfectly.
He overheard the two girls talking enthusiastically about cooking. Although it was related to their gluttony, they could indeed be considered virtuous.
Cao Kun pointed out: "Having someone who can cook at home can greatly improve your quality of life. Even if your family can only make ends meet, as long as your mother is a good cook, you can eat about the same as well-off or even middle-class families."
Ma Shicheng: "No different from the rich."
Dong Qingfeng: "That's true. We can see it. For example, the top tycoons in domestic Internet companies usually only have a few more dishes for their meals. I'm afraid only a very small number of people can eat delicacies from land and sea every day like Mr. Lafayette."
Guo Kunnan: "This proves the importance of finding a virtuous wife who is good at cooking."
Lu Qiqi was ridiculed for posting a photo of a western-style meal. She said unhappily, "What does her virtue have to do with you?"
She spoke for the women's group: "Now that society has progressed, women can earn money and their social status has improved. Why should they work and earn money like you, have children, and be responsible for cooking and doing housework?"
"Why don't you look in the mirror and see what you are made of?"
Lu Qiqi learned her lesson. She didn't deny everything. "Of course, there are still gentle, virtuous and beautiful girls. They are just becoming the exclusive property of rich men. If you have the ability, become rich! Hahaha!"
This collective ridicule was so devastating that the entire class fell silent.
Does what Lu Qiqi said make sense? Without a doubt, it makes sense.
Shan Kaiquan and the others were so angry that they couldn't think of any words to refute for a while.
Ma Shicheng: "You are quite right. If we want fairness, then we should be completely fair. I am afraid that some people want equal work and preferential treatment at the same time, they want independence and full payment for the house, they want to break the shackles and get the three gold gifts at the same time."
Lu Qiqi didn't curse at Ma Shicheng because she knew she was not as good as him. She just said: "Haha, the future will prove who is right."
Jiang Ning looked at the chat history silently. At this moment, except for him, no one would know how the social ideology would evolve in the 2015 years from 10. The number of newborns in 2015 was 1600 million, but it was halved 10 years later.
The upper class is still high and mighty, leaving only the lower class, fighting and hurting each other more and more fiercely. How ridiculous is that?
……
in the afternoon.
Jiang Ning bought two pairs of shoes online a few days ago, and the courier sent a text message for pickup.
Heba Pingfang is too remote, so there is no express delivery point, so he needs to ride his bike to the city to pick up the package.
Before Jiang Ning asked Tongtong whether he wanted to go or not, he pushed the cart to the door, only to see Tongtong blocking his way, staring at him fiercely.
"It's the first day of vacation, what are you doing? Tell the truth!"
Jiang Ning: "I bought you a pair of shoes. I'll go get them."
Xue Yuantong was confused for a moment, then asked in surprise and joy: "You won't lie to me, will you?"
Jiang Ning patted the back seat and said, "Let's go!"
Xue Yuantong happily climbed onto the electric car and sat very straight. She turned around and waved to Chu Chu: "Let's go!"
The electric car with a cool appearance set off quickly, leaving only the lonely Chuchu at the door of the bungalow.
Looking at their figures, Xue Chuchu felt inexplicably melancholy in her heart. It seemed like she had become an outsider.
The electric car successfully rushed onto the asphalt road on the river dam. Xue Yuantong pointed to the north. There was a thick layer of ice on the surface of the Huishui River. A cordon was set up around the river. Two uniformed personnel were patrolling to prevent people from going onto the ice without permission and causing accidents.
In fact, the river is frozen enough for cars to run on...it has only been open in the last two days.
As the electric car passed the branch under construction, Xue Yuantong suddenly had an idea: "Jiang Ning, do you think there will be a delivery point when it is completed?"
In that case, she could walk to the police station with Jiang Ning to pick up the express delivery.
Jiang Ning was speechless. How could she be so thoughtful? That was the police station.
However, Jiang Ning suddenly felt that this suggestion was good and could indeed save a lot of trouble. He planned to go back and ask Shao Shuangshuang to make arrangements.
Although I went to the city to pick up a package, since I was here, I definitely didn't go there just to pick up the package.
Jiang Ning first found a snack shop and took Tongtong to pick out snacks. She saw the small packages of peeled pecans and crispy and sweet amber walnut kernels, and after picking them up, she was reluctant to put them down because she thought they were too expensive.
Jiang Ning took out a red banknote and said, "This is Dongdong's hard-earned money. Can you resist spending it?"
Xue Yuantong thought about how hateful the naughty kids were and transferred this hatefulness onto banknotes, so she finally had the heart to buy snacks. When she finally calculated the bill, she found that she had spent 160 yuan!
Dongdong is going to be a slave for two days!
Tongtong, who is petite, doesn't feel tired at all while carrying the big bag.
Passing by a fruit shop, Jiang Ning went in to pick out a grapefruit, then picked up the express delivery. He put all the things on the electric bike, and drove Tongtong home.
Along the way, Tongtong talked about the various snacks she bought and her fate with snacks, and Jiang Ning listened quietly.
The spiritual power blocked the sound of the wind, so he didn't feel cold at all. However, as Tongtong was talking, she would still reach out to straighten his scarf, just like when she was a child and her mother would help her straighten the quilt when she fell asleep.
Jiang Ning's mouth curled up, and he suddenly felt really good.
Happiness does not necessarily require standing at the highest point and being admired by thousands of people; it starts more from the ordinary.
The next second, Tongtong's voice came to his ears: "Jiang Ning, there are candied haws for sale, do you want to eat some?"
Jiang Ning: “…”
……
After returning home, Tongtong put the bag of snacks on the table and she couldn't wait to open the outer packaging.
I found that it was a pair of mini white shoes with a low-top body, a stitched upper, simple lines, and a pure white tone, which is very versatile.
Xue Yuantong has bound feet and now wears size 34 shoes. It is difficult for her to buy shoes in this size because the smallest size of big-name women's shoes is usually 35.5 or 36, which means that she can only wear children's shoes.
After Xue Yuantong put on the shoes, he found that they fit his feet perfectly. The lining of the shoes was very soft and comfortable to walk on, and there was no rubbing on his feet.
Her eyes were filled with admiration: "Jiang Ning, you are so good at buying shoes!"
Jiang Ning said casually: "It's okay."
He used his spiritual sense to accurately measure the length of Tongtong's feet, so the shoes he bought were of course suitable.
Xue Yuantong unpacked another pair of shoes and found that they were much bigger. She looked at Jiang Ning with suspicion and became suspicious of him.
Jiang Ning said casually: "I guess the merchant sent the wrong size."
He took out his cell phone and showed Tongtong the shoe size, and sure enough, he bought size 34.
Xue Yuantong suddenly realized: "It turns out that the merchant sent the wrong item. How stupid!"
Jiang Ning looked at her silly appearance and was too lazy to argue with her.
He told the merchant that he sent the wrong one.
The shoes were a little big, so Tongtong thought of her best friend Chuchu. She took the shoes and ran to Chuchu's house to help Chuchu try them on.
……
In the afternoon, Hua Fengmei came back.
These women who used to do hard labor are more hardworking than others. Some can even work for a month without rest and work overtime at night...
I came back tonight on purpose because I had something to do tomorrow.
I also invited Tongtong and Jiang Ning from next door to dinner. After all, she is my daughter and they take care of her every day.
Hua Fengmei paid the kitchen staff to prepare two dishes and brought them home. She then cooked fish herself to treat Jiang Ning.
At sunset, the kitchen of Hua Fengmei's house was illuminated by incandescent lamps, giving off a warm light.
Hua Fengmei's face, which had become cold due to life, has recently regained a lot of tenderness. She said in a gentle tone: "Auntie came back in a hurry today, so I didn't prepare many dishes. You guys just make do with what you have."
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "It's already very good."
Xue Yuantong nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Delicious, delicious!"
She picked up a piece of braised beef tendon, which was soft, chewy and very tasty. Xue Yuantong was so envious of her mother because she worked in such a good company and could eat such delicious food!
Xue Yuantong had an idea: "I will also join Changqing Liquid and become a big leader in the future!"
Hua Fengmei asked Jiang Ning about his studies, his plans for the winter vacation, and where he was going for the New Year. She now knew that Jiang Ning's parents were the general managers of Changqing Liquid in Dongjiang Province, and even if they were placed in the headquarters, they could be called senior executives.
Jiang Ning responded one by one.
The more Hua Fengmei talked, the more she felt that Jiang Ning was a really nice guy. Hua Fengmei was obsessed with looks, otherwise she would not have married Chu Chu's father.
Jiang Ning is tall and handsome, and most importantly, his facial features look very comfortable. His grades are better than Chu Chu's. He has a good family background, good physical fitness, and is responsible and capable... He is simply perfect, right?
"No wonder Sister Gu is so satisfied!" Hua Fengmei lamented.
"And Tongtong, get along well with Chuchu..." Hua Fengmei said.
Xue Chuchu knew that Tongtong was not good at dealing with her mother, so she helped by saying, "Tongtong also gave me a pair of shoes today."
As she spoke, she showed off her pink and white low-top sneakers, which looked particularly pure on her feet.
Xue Yuantong ate his meal without raising his head, and said sullenly: "I didn't buy it, Jiang Ning bought it for you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the dinner table suddenly fell silent.
Hua Fengmei was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and said, "Did Jiang Ning really buy it?"
