Chapter 417: What People Want(2/2)
"Originally... I was quite happy. I thought he was quite thoughtful. Then just buy it and you'll be fine when you get back. No... he wasn't just wandering around. This time he went to Xisi Furniture
I went to the store and immediately fell in love with this corner sofa.”
"The price was two hundred and seventy-five... At that time, he, a big fool, touched his pocket, paid for it, and hired a tricycle to pull it back. The result was great, there is no room for it in our house.
Huh? Now we can only reinstall the car and deliver it to you, the second elder."
"The one who pulls the three-wheeler is suitable for me. It's going to be expensive today. A job that usually costs two or three yuan, but he makes a trip for ten yuan. Plus this trip, he made half a month's worth of money in one afternoon.
I just put together this set of sofas and made it into a three-hundred set. Oh, don’t mention it, it pisses me off..."
Zhang Shihui felt quite embarrassed, but refused to admit her mistake.
“Who are you stupid? Just tell me whether this sofa is good-looking or not? This is a style that just came out this year, just like the one in the foreigner’s home. Didn’t you also like it when I first bought it?”
“There is no place to put it. It doesn’t mean that I don’t know how to buy things. It can only mean that we are not lucky... No, no, it means that our parents are more lucky than us.”
"Look, if there is such a sofa in my parents' house, I will be willing to sit and lie down in the future. How comfortable it is! How elegant! By the way, I will buy a separate glass coffee table for you and me later.
Here, it will be more decent to entertain guests in the future..."
Hey, don’t tell me, Zhang Shihui really knows how to speak nicely.
Now Liu Weijing's parents were not only relieved, but they also felt that Bai Luo's sofa was quite suitable, and they were also happy.
“Yes, yes, I think this sofa is good. It’s suitable for our home...”
“Hey, don’t tell me, my son-in-law has a very good eye and is good at picking out things...”
For this reason, Liu Weijing, who had lost the Allied Forces, was even more angry and gritted his teeth.
“Oh, Dad, Mom, why are you still talking to him? You don’t know that he likes to spend money carelessly.”
"There are a lot of appliances at home, so that's it. He can still resell them. But why do you think he bought several bicycles and kept them in the house? They are all new cars. If they can't be ridden, they will take up space in vain. They should be kept in the yard.
I’m afraid of getting caught in the rain.”
"There are also watches, men's and women's watches, domestic and foreign, mechanical and electronic, different brands. I bought them for more than ten yuan. He also bought them. How many hands does he and I have? Can we wear them?
"
Now Liu Weijing’s parents cannot disapprove of their daughter’s attitude.
As an old man, the most important thing is to be diligent and thrifty.
“Shi Hui, this is your fault. To earn money, you have to know how to spend it. How much money do you earn, and you don’t want to be so lavish in your life. You have to think about the future..."
“That’s right, if you have money, you won’t have half a year to spare. Why have you forgotten the old saying? Do you need it if you buy it? Don’t just buy it blindly if you don’t need it. Your money didn’t come from the strong wind..."
Zhang Shihui wiped some sweat from his forehead and finally bowed his head humbly this time.
"Dad, Mom, what you are talking about is. I accept the criticism and promise not to buy bicycles or watches in the future. But since I have bought them, of course I can't just leave them at home for nothing. I still have to put them to use as much as possible. So I plan to
After the Chinese New Year, I will send you some bicycles and watches from home. Dad and Mom, please help me and use them for me..."
Now Liu Weijing’s parents were both surprised.
“Yo, you want to bring it to us?”
“Ah, no matter who uses it, it’s not a use. Anyway, we are a family, and the wealth will not flow to other people’s fields..."
"This... is still not appropriate. You should keep your valuables yourself. No one in my hometown would take their children's things like this..."
"No, parents, I must ask my second brother to help me with this. Let me tell you the truth, I actually want to buy a motorcycle. If you don't leave the bike, I won't have room to put it at home. Then Liu Wei
Please don't eat me..."
Silver bullet offensive, typical silver bullet offensive.
Have you ever seen an old couple who have been poor for half their lives giving away cars and watches like this?
How can you still love such a generous son-in-law in your heart?
Absolutely.
As for the daughter?
Since you are your own biological child, what can you do if you are a little wronged?
Stop talking nonsense, go get down to work in the kitchen, we still have to cook the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Of course, there are so many people who have benefited from Ning Weimin, and so many people whose life situations have been changed because of him.
Not everyone is so satisfied and happy.
There is always an exception.
For example, in the backyard of the cigarette shop in Huanghuamen, "Zhang Dashao" was performing the grand ceremony of kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times.
The old man burst into tears and shouted with great sadness, "Zhang Mingwu, an unworthy descendant, has failed in his family education and kowtowed to his ancestors..."
On the wall in front of him were eight wooden signs and two iron signs.
The sacrifices were extremely rich.
In addition to the three main sacrifices: fish, duck and hot pot.
In addition, there are eight bowls of dishes, ten sets of chopsticks, and wine cups.
If anyone of Zhang Shihui’s age were here, he would definitely be surprised by this scene.
It’s not just that the New Year’s Eve ancestor worship practice, which has disappeared for many years due to changes in customs, has reappeared here again.
Moreover, this kind of ancestor worship ceremony also has many things that are not quite right with the established ritual practices.
For example, what Zhang Dashao worshiped was neither the ancestral hall picture nor the main wooden tablet.
Rather, it is a palace entrance badge with ten hot noodle characters written in both Manchu and Chinese languages.
For another example, although the sacrificial utensils arranged by Zhang Dashao are crude and ordinary, the dishes are indeed fragrant and really make people salivate.
If you look carefully, the texture is far beyond anyone’s imagination.
Let alone all the chefs in the capital, even if Puyi's own brother was here, he would be shocked.
Because not only chicken, duck, fish, sea cucumber and swallow's wings are available.
Even like the oven-roasted pork and clear sauce pork that have been extinct for many years in the capital.
No one knows how to make butter uttar or milk cake, we have them all here.
There are even a few dishes that even he may not have seen before.
