Martial arts immortality, my practice has experience

Before Chen Pingan entered the yard, he could smell the fragrance.

"Nannan, I'm back."

"Brother, you're back~ Come, drink some water and moisten your throat."

Chen Erya came out from inside, holding a bowl of water in her hand.

Chen Pingan took the water and drank it all.

"Ha~ Nannan is still considerate!"

Chen Pingan was taking off his official uniform while talking to Chen Erya.

The weather was not too hot at the moment, so he didn't sweat much. After taking off this uniform, he could continue to wear it tomorrow.

If he washed it every day, it would not only be troublesome, but also wear out the clothes.

He only had two pieces in total. If they were broken, he would have to pay for them himself to get a new one from the Zhenfu Division.

"Nannan, did you eat well today!?"

"I ate! I listened to my brother and had beef at noon."

"Yeah. Not bad."

Chen Pingan even went to the kitchen to take a look at the beef.

Uh...

Looking at the beef that was not much different from what he had packed up yesterday, Chen Ping'an's face darkened slightly.

"Eat it? How come there is still so much left!"

"Ah..."

Chen Erya laughed and tried to get away with it.

But Chen Ping'an didn't agree.

Finally, Chen Erya could only confess obediently. She did eat it, but she only ate a small piece.

"I just want to leave it for my brother. My brother is out there, making money to support the family, and he consumes a lot. This beef is for my brother to eat and replenish his body."

"If I want to eat it, just buy it directly! Besides, there is no conflict between me eating and you eating!"

Chen Erya didn't answer. But Chen Ping'an knew what she was thinking.

It's nothing more than a matter of money! If there is enough money, there is no need to be so frugal.

Although Chen Ping'an said that he had thought of a way to pay back the fourteen taels of silver to the Tiger Head Gang's Little Tiger, Chen Erya also believed her brother. But the matter has not been resolved, it is always a worry.

With this worry, Chen Erya naturally has to be frugal everywhere.

"Brother told you yesterday not to be perfunctory about lunch. You didn't listen! Are you trying to piss me off! And..."

The little girl didn't say anything, just blinked her big eyes and looked at him.

"You..."

Chen Ping'an saw Chen Erya's pitiful look, and couldn't bear it, so he sighed. What he wanted to say could no longer be said. He gently tapped Chen Erya's forehead with his finger, unable to bear to continue blaming.

After all, his monthly salary was too little!

"Did you buy your pork thigh yesterday?"

"I bought it! I also bought pig's trotters, and stewed them for brother to replenish his body. Brother is practicing martial arts now, and he needs to eat more meat."

Chen Erya said with a smile.

In the past few days, they didn't eat like this. Every meal was meat and vegetables, and it was only these two days that Chen Ping'an specifically ordered it, so it was like this.

Chen Erya had already cooked the dinner in the evening. Although this girl was only nine years old, she was proficient in all housework. Even his cooking skills are not inferior to Chen Pingan.

The two of them talked and worked together to bring the food to the wooden table.

Today's dinner: a bowl of stewed pig's trotters, a bowl of braised pork thighs, a plate of scrambled eggs with green peppers, a bowl of mushroom soup, and two bowls of white rice.

Luxurious!

Extremely luxurious!

If I could enjoy this every day, I wouldn't trade it for a god!

I'm afraid that those owners of shops on the streets can't afford this kind of dinner every day.

You know, there are many families around who can't even eat white rice cooked with fine rice, let alone meat and vegetables. They can only eat coarse rice mixed with rice husks and extremely rough. What's more, there are many people in the family, few laborers, and no special skills. Even eating coarse rice is difficult, and they can only eat some wheat bran.

Compared with them, Chen Pingan and Chen Erya are undoubtedly happy.

After all, with the identity of the Zhenfusi errand officer, they will not starve to death, and they can occasionally eat meat.

This is why Chen's father was almost unable to get down from the ground, and he had to spend a lot of effort, exhaust his family savings, and even borrow money to get a temporary status for Chen Pingan.

With this status, the days of uncertainty will only say goodbye to them. The days of the two of them are getting more and more hopeful.

However, what Chen Pingan needs to solve is the fourteen taels of silver owed by the Tiger Head Gang.

"Nannan, don't worry about the fourteen taels of silver owed. Brother was not joking with you yesterday, and there is really a way."

During the meal, Chen Pingan looked into Chen Erya's eyes and said seriously.

"Well, I believe you, brother, and I know you're not kidding."

"Then you have to treat yourself well. Don't have a small piece of beef for lunch like today. If the family needs money, just tell me. After paying back the fourteen taels of silver, with your monthly salary, our lives will get better and better. We can also relax a little on food, clothing and other expenses at home."

Chen Ping'an said seriously, and Chen Erya listened seriously.

"Brother, I know. But, I think, even if the fourteen taels of silver are paid back, there are still big things to do at home, and there are many places where money should be spent. I still want to save as much as possible."

"What big things are not done?"

Chen Ping'an asked curiously.

"My brother is about to marry a wife. My brother is also nineteen. Wait until next year and it will be the year when he will be weak. I have asked Granny Wang in Changqiao Nong. If I want to marry a daughter-in-law, I will have to pay for it in various ways. At least ten taels of silver!

Moreover, it is not okay for my brother, who is so outstanding, to just marry an ordinary wife and go home. Therefore, ten taels of silver is not enough. The family must prepare at least twenty taels of silver for the brother to marry a wife. My mother died early, and there was no one in the family to plan this matter for my brother, so I was the only one. "

Chen Erya spoke clearly and clearly, and it seemed that he had thought it through carefully. But what she said almost made Chen Pingan spit out the mushroom soup he just drank.

"You girl, you are as big as a brat!"

Having said that, Chen Ping'an felt warm in his heart.

"My sister-in-law, of course she must be gentle and beautiful. So, even if I owe money, my brother has a solution. We still have to save money at home!"

Chen Erya said with his chest held high and his head held high.

"Okay, okay!"

Chen Pingan looked helpless.

He didn't argue with Chen Erya either.

Since Chen Erya was hiding this matter in his heart, no matter how much he said, it would be useless. Rather than saying that, it is better to prove it with actual actions.

After dinner, Chen Pingan did not clean up with Chen Erya this time.

The latch of the courtyard door was still held up by a stick, and he needed to get a suitable stick. During the day, he patrolled the streets and found nothing suitable. Since there was no suitable one, he would make one himself.

I happened to have an uncut piece of wood at home that could be remodeled.

In the yard, he was holding a hatchet and processing wood. In the kitchen, Chen Erya was washing the dishes.

During their work breaks, the two of them would have eye contact from time to time. For just a moment, both of them felt extremely at ease in their hearts.

It feels so good to have my family by my side!

This feeling is priceless!
