Siheyuan: Get the system at the beginning

Chapter 12: The Smart Three Aunts

Jia Dongxu no longer insisted, and the two of them exchanged lunch boxes, but he still gave half of the meat and vegetables in the lunch box to the chef. After all, dishes with meat have more oil and water.

Yi Zhonghai knew his apprentice's character very well, and he felt at ease. After the master and apprentice finished their meal, they walked out of the dining hall together. Jia Dongxu walked faster to wash the lunch box in the sink outside the hall, and then followed his master obediently.

"What's wrong with you? Are you worried?"

"Master, I am useless as an apprentice. Do you know what the situation is like in my family?

I accidentally drank too much with friends after get off work last night, and only this morning did I find out from my mom that our house was gone.

They also asked me to move out today. I can't think of a good solution. The child is growing up day by day, and Huairu is pregnant with another one. What's going on?"

Jia Dongxu's face was full of melancholy when he spoke. Yi Zhonghai had no way to deal with this matter for the time being. The girl was assigned by the factory and the house originally belonged to the factory. What could he do about it?

"It's still too early for the child to grow up! Dongxu, let's not worry. No one knows what will happen in the future. Don't worry! Your son's house will definitely be taken away. The other party is just a girl. Wait for the master to find out the truth, and then think of a way."

"Thank you, Master. You are the best to me. If my father were here, I wouldn't have to worry about these things."

Jia Dongxu spoke emotionally, his eyes turned red, and one could tell how deeply wronged he had suffered.

"There's nothing we can do about it. It's because Lao Jia is not that lucky! You are a father now, and you have a child now. You can't be like before, or your son will laugh at you if he sees you.

Don’t worry about the house. Let’s go and clean it up together after work.”

Yi Zhonghai said this, but he felt bad in his heart, because he had no children. But now he had a good apprentice who could provide for his old age, so it was not a loss.

After all, he watched this apprentice grow up, and after they established a master-apprentice relationship, he was the one who personally taught him the principles of life and work-related knowledge. It can be said that he knows his apprentice very well, and of course he is the one he is most satisfied with, so he is naturally the first to help his apprentice when he has problems.

Neither of them expected that the new owner had already taken care of everything and moved in.

Zhang Xiaoyan, who was lying on the bed, suddenly sat up. She had forgotten that she had not even tasted the healing spring water she got yesterday. It was such a waste of time.

She couldn't sit still when she thought of this, so she quickly got up from the bed, found a bowl and then followed the system's instructions, placing her little finger on the edge of the bowl. Soon, she had a wonderful feeling, a cool feeling, and she could even feel that it was flowing, slowly flowing from her little finger into the empty bowl.

After a while, I got half a bowl. I estimated that it was less than 200 ml, but I didn't dare to add more. The feeling just now was very strange. I curiously put my fingers in front of my eyes, but there was no difference from the past.

"System, why does this water have a medicinal smell?"

"It can cure all diseases. Strictly speaking, it's a potion. Is it strange that it has a medicinal scent?"

The system asked back,

"Oh, forget my nonsense."

Zhang Xiaoyan also felt that she had talked nonsense, but how should she drink this potion?

“Should I drink this straight away?”

"Do you want to perform any other rituals?"

The system asked back,

"Oh, that's not necessary."

Zhang Xiaoyan picked up the bowl and drank it in one gulp. She smelled the aroma of Chinese medicine, but she couldn't tell which kind of herbal medicine it was. She felt that there were many kinds of herbs in it. She thought it would be very unpalatable, but it tasted very clear, with a light sweetness that was almost unnoticeable.

I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, but I felt a lot more relaxed. Even my breathing felt smoother and softer than before.

After drinking it, she smacked her lips and wanted to drink more, but without a measured cup she was afraid of drinking too much and causing problems, so she reluctantly turned the bowl upside down on the table.

In the morning, I mainly bought furniture, kitchen utensils, and many daily necessities. After thinking about it, I put on a bag, locked the door, and walked out of the yard.

She doesn't have much money now. Strictly speaking, the only money she has is the money given by the system. She has to go to the bank to change the money into small change, otherwise every time she spends money, she will end up with a big black ten. It's okay once or twice, but if this happens every time, it will get her into trouble one day. So it's best to change it into small change, and it's also convenient for purchasing things, because at this time, the money everyone carries is basically in crude banknotes. One or two yuan notes are common, but ten yuan notes are rarely carried, unless they are specifically brought for something.

Ignoring everyone's curious looks, she passed by the middle yard and the front yard. She knew that it was okay if no one saw her, but if they saw her passing by, they would definitely find something to talk about, but she didn't care anyway.

"Are you the new resident called that one...?"

"Hello, my name is Zhang Xiaoyan, what can I do for you, auntie?"

As soon as Zhang Xiaoyan arrived at the front yard, he saw a thin middle-aged woman peeling onions at the door of his house. When he saw her coming out of the middle door, he greeted her, but he couldn't remember her name for a while.

Zhang Xiaoyan recognized the other person as the wife of Uncle San. Everyone in the yard called her Aunt San.

"Oh! I'm your third aunt. All the neighbors in the yard call me that. Sorry, I forgot just now. Comrade Zhang, are you going out?"

If it was before, Zhang Xiaoyan would definitely say, "None of your business!" But now! She also knew why there were three managers in this yard, and the other party's questions made sense no matter what.

"There are still some daily necessities that need to be bought at home, so I'm going to the department store to have a look."

It was originally a simple question and answer, but unexpectedly, the third aunt's eyes lit up after hearing it, and she quickly put down the green onion in her hand, came over with a smile and said:

"Go buy something! Do you have enough tickets? I have soap tickets and perfumed soap tickets. Don't worry, they are all saved by the family. We can exchange them for some food."

The third aunt was also afraid that the other party did not have much money. After all, she saw with her own eyes how many things were moved in in the morning, so she thought of exchanging them for food, and this was also the safest method.

Zhang Xiaoyan didn't expect this third aunt to be so smart. She really didn't have any soap tickets.

"I really need to buy soap, but my family doesn't have any food to exchange for."

"Hey! Why are you saying that? Your third aunt believes in you. It's the same if you buy food and give it to me. I'll go get you a ticket right now!"

After saying that, the third aunt ran back home. Before Zhang Xiaoyan had a chance to say anything,

This business is done, but it is true that in this day and age, it is impossible to raise several children and provide them with education without being frugal and smart.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaoyan did not leave. She really needed it anyway. However, thinking of the other party's cleverness, she would better confirm how much food she needed to exchange for one soap ticket.
