Chapter 159 Entering the City

Author: Cool Beauty

Xu Xiulian glared at her daughter and said angrily: "You are spending money again, right?"

She gave her daughter fifty yuan, but her parents-in-law and son would give her some pocket money, which would add up to about a hundred yuan a month.

But it was only July 19th today, and she asked for money from herself, so she must have bought something again.

Yan Huan quickly defended: "Mom, you misunderstood me. I have saved money for three months before I bought a pair of shoes for Xinning as a gift."

Yan Sheng was puzzled after hearing this: "A pair of sneakers costs only about 30 yuan, so why do you need to save it for three months?"

Huili sneakers are not cheap now. They are mid-to-high-end sneakers, and they cost 30 or 40 yuan in department stores.

If you can have a pair of power shoes in Houzhai Town or in the countryside, it will be very respectful to wear them.

Yan Huan lifted his chin and said proudly: "Are they travel shoes or Adidas brand shoes? Does it cost 150 yuan?"

Yan Sheng was displeased after hearing this: "Isn't the Huili Shoes in our country just good? You young people shouldn't blindly pursue brands. You are a typical example of fawning on the outside world."

"No wonder foreign monks are good at chanting scriptures, but local monks are not popular..."

Xu Xiulian was very angry that her daughter was spending money randomly. She was happy to see her daughter getting close to Xinning, so she smiled and said, "Old Yan, we can't just know how to xenophobia. We have to remove the dough and preserve the essence, right?"

Yan Huan almost laughed out loud when he saw his father being speechless by his mother.

Xu Xiulian gave her daughter a look: "And you, you can't spend money too much. If you develop a habit, I'm afraid that your salary will not be enough for you in the future."

Yan Huan has also graduated. She is from the Department of Political Science and Law and is preparing to go to the same unit as her father, but the person who admitted her to work in the archives room.

Yan Sheng also wanted her to keep her feet on the ground and learn more, so he greeted several people who knew that Yan Huan was his daughter.

From then on, Yan Huan was just a staff member with the same surname as a senior official.

Yan Huan could only nodded depressedly: "I understand, I'm going to work next month. Even if I want to go out to spend money, I won't have that chance."

Besides, Xiao Hong walked for a while with two bags in her arms, and she quickly put down the bag in her hand, and she really couldn't walk anymore.

Now during the summer vacation, there are many children playing in the yard, including those catching chicks in the eagle, those rolling iron rings, and those holding their younger brothers and sisters watching the fun beside them.

Xiao Hong grabbed a teenage boy who ran over in front of him, handed him a few pieces of big bubble gum, and asked with a smile: "Hello, do you know Xiao Haonan?"

The boy nodded cleverly: "Are you a relative of Brother Xiao's family?"

"Yes, go and shout for me and ask him to pick me up, okay?" Xiao Hong stuffed bubble gum into his hand.

The bribery was very successful. The boy was ‘forced’ to get bubble gum. His eyes lit up and he shouted: “I’ll go and shout now and I’ll be back soon.”

Xiao Hong also took the opportunity to look at the unit building here. Each building looked similar, which means that several units were written on the first floor with paint.

In her memory, she also came to the provincial capital with her grandmother, but at that time, her uncle and the others lived in the old house of the unit. She had never been here, only knowing that their house was on the third floor of Unit 5.

It is not convenient for her to find so many things, so it is more suitable for them to pick her up.

I just hope that they will all get home from get off work now.

Xiao Mengqiu was placing bowls and chopsticks in the living room. When he saw a sweaty little boy rushing in, he smiled and joked: "Little Shitou, why are you running away? Is your mother going to beat you up again?"

"It's your relative who is here," Xiao Shitou gasped, holding the door frame, "I'm still waiting for you to pick you up at the gate of the yard."

"Okay, thank you, Xiao Shitou." After Xiao Mengqiu said that, she called someone to the kitchen: "Second brother, Xiao Hong is here. When she called before, she said she would bring us watermelons, so let's get it quickly."

Their parents and elder brother should have gotten off work, but they have not returned home yet.

Xiao Haonan got off work on time and went to the kitchen to cook when he came back. When he heard his sister's words, he responded: "I understand."

The brother and sister went downstairs and simply rode their bicycles to the entrance of the yard, and saw Xiao Hong sitting on the steps next to them.

"You're here," Xiao Mengqiu jumped off the back rack of the bicycle and ran over. Looking at the two big bags of things on the ground, he admired him very much: "Awesome, it's really hard for you to bring so many things."

Xiao Haonan also parked the car and stepped forward to touch his cousin's head: "Little fool, you really listen to Mengqiu's words. How tired you are to bring so many things."

This was very considerate, and Xiao Hong smiled at him.

Unexpectedly, his tone changed again: "When I come back next time, I just need to bring a braised chicken. I'm always thinking about that delicious food?"

Xiao Hong rolled his eyes: "Bad Second Brother, can't you say something nice to coax me more?"

Xiao Haonan made a statement: "I let you know in advance that men's sweet words are not credible."

Even so, he put the sack on the back seat of the bicycle and tied it up.

Xiao Hong and Xiao Mengqiu also carried another bag home.

When Xiao Mengqiu heard that Xiao Hong was coming in the same car as Yan Huan's parents, she expressed deep sympathy for him: "Yan Huan and her brother are both fine, but their mother seems a little difficult to talk to. I face Yan Huan's mother, like the school's teaching director."

"Yes, I think so too." Xiao Hong felt even more relieved when she heard her words.

It turns out that Xu Xiulian is such a serious person, not targeting herself specifically.

When he got home, Xiao Hong sat down on the sofa: "Oh, I'm so tired, why are you not assigned to the first floor?"

Pointing to the sack again: "There are three watermelons in it."

"The other bag is beans, eggplant, loofah, gourds and other gourds."

After saying that, he took out a tightly wrapped plastic bag from his backpack: "The weather is too hot, and I dare not bring it too much. Let's open it and get some breathing first."

In fact, it was fine. There was air conditioning on the car, and the braised chicken and pork head meat were wrapped in lotus leaves. After opening it, it only had a fragrance and no bad smell.

After taking a deep breath, Xiao Haonan held his heart and said exaggeratedly: "It's this smell, it smells so fragrant!"

Xiao Mengqiu brought Xiao Hong a bottle of plastic gourd-shaped orange water and urged him: "Second brother, have you cooked all the dishes?"

Xiao Haonan immediately rushed to the kitchen: "There are two more dishes, Xiao Hong, please wait for your second brother to show you something today."

Xiao Mengqiu took out all the watermelons and vegetables she brought and put them in a large plastic basin, and chatted with her: "I really didn't expect that your sisters are so powerful. They have all been admitted to college, so we will meet frequently in the future."

He asked her again: "Did you tell me about this good news to my second uncle? And that Lou Fenfang is also taking the college entrance examination this year, right? I wonder if she has been admitted to university?"
