Not too many out of four

The people who finally decided to go out with Li Jia were "Mr. Zhongye" and "Zhongye".

Under normal circumstances, three people go out to buy food for five people, and there is no car to carry it all the way back from the shopping street, so one person just shares part of the weight.

However, "Mr. Zhongye" and "Zhongye" have absolutely no intention of asking Lijia to carry things. She just needs to make a list of what to buy and be responsible for selecting fresh ingredients. They will be responsible for bringing back the ingredients they bought.

It’s just that some of the ingredients don’t make sense, so let the injured take them. Even if there is only one Zhongyuanzhong, all the ingredients for five people can be brought back. Only Lijia had an accident. “Mr. Zhongye” and “Zhongye” are not at ease. One person followed, just as "Brother Zhongye" needed to ask "Mr. Zhongye" about something, so they all followed.

Before leaving the house, Li Jia asked Chuya Zhongyuan how much they eat with pen and paper.

The food intake of cats is naturally different from that of humans. If Lijia's food intake is taken as the basis for preparing four more people, it will definitely not be enough, no matter whether it is a boy in adolescence or an adult male.

What Li Jia began to think was based on Kudo Shinichi's food intake. The elder brother is a member of the football club. He does a lot of exercise and is in the growth period of high school. His food intake is almost twice that of Li Jia.

Li Jia was born with a small body, and she ate very little, and her appetite was relatively small for girls. If calculated based on her amount, Zhong Yuanzhong might have to go hungry for several hours and wait until evening to eat the second meal. meal.

"How big is the appetite?" This question overwhelmed "Mr. Zhongye". When he was a sheep, he always had something to eat, and he didn't try to eat a meal at will. He was not sure: "Maybe It will be bigger than Kudo."

After joining the port mafia, "Chuya" often ate in the organization's cafeteria, and occasionally went out to eat. He was a little more sure about his appetite: "If it's ramen, you can eat two bowls of normal portion, and if you only eat meat Eat more."

After all, Zhongya Zhongya’s activities have always been quite high. When he was a sheep, he often had to repel various organizations that came to provoke the sheep, protect his companions wandering around in Leibo Street to inquire about what happened eight years ago, and organized after entering the port mafia. It is in the development period, the martial arts faction has so many tasks that there is no time for vacation, and he has no mood to rest.

"Such a large steak will eat two or three yuan for a meal." When it was "Brother Zhongye"'s turn, he raised his hand to indicate the size and thickness of the steak. As a cadre, he often solves his own problems at home when he is on vacation. lunch dinner.

"Mr. Chuya" pondered for a while, his lunch and dinner would often be brought to the top floor by his secretary, not to mention that he didn't eat out even in the last two years of his cadre period after becoming a leader: "It's about twice as much as an adult male." Portion."

Although the time and frequency of going out as a leader will be reduced, he will not slack off to exercise his physical skills. Most of the time is spent in the training ground dedicated to the leader, and the physical exertion is not small.

Li Jia thought about it with her face on her face, and then solemnly added rice to the list.

Calculated in this way, I feel that it is not only necessary to prepare dishes for five people, but also consume a lot of ingredients for one day, and I can no longer buy them for two days and store them at home as usual.

The ingredients they bought this time may only be enough for a day.

Li Jia began to have a faint sense of urgency. She found that the household might not be enough to support the five of them, and her small coffers might not last for two months.

Now it seems that only relying on online manuscripts can no longer support the cats at home. Nakahara Chuya and the others finally turned back into humans, and she couldn't bear to let them continue to turn back into cats to eat cat food and cat meals. The daily expenses are definitely not small.

Sure enough, she still has to start contributing new comics to increase family income. Since the end of her last work, Li Jia has taken a break, and soon picked up Nakaya Cats and Cats. She hasn't drawn comics for more than a year.

When I was in Aichi Prefecture, I started drawing comics to help my family. To a certain extent, it relieved the financial situation of the family at that time. After a few months of serialization, I was even invited by a well-known novelist to draw illustrations in the novel. These are all Thanks to Miss Editor for taking care of me.

Originally, she just planned to rest for a while, but unexpectedly, she picked up four kittens soon after. While taking care of the cats, she was worried about the life of the third year of junior high school, which was coming soon. Li Jia had no time to take care of the work of serializing comics, so she had to put it down and turn to editing. Introduce some illustration work to the novelist who invited her before.

But based on the current consumption of the family, she can no longer support her cats by relying only on the illustrations and the royalties from the booklets of the previous works, so she must start to increase new income.

Li Jia didn't tell Zhongyuan Chuya and them the worries in her heart. She just made a list silently and said with a smile that they could go out.

If you don't go out now, the lunch time will be delayed a lot.

……

The advantage of buying vegetables in department stores and supermarkets is that Lijia doesn’t need to communicate with the clerks, she just silently selects fresh ingredients and puts them in the shopping carts pushed by “Zhongye Jun” and “Zhongye”.

When entering the supermarket, Li Jia almost took the shopping basket as usual.

When Kudo Shinichi was away from home for a few months, she only needed to buy food for herself and four cats, and the shopping basket contained all the ingredients, which was more than enough, but now she needs to buy ingredients for more than five people, relying only on shopping I'm afraid that the basket can only be accommodated if one person carries one.

Carrying a heavy shopping basket around the supermarket is better than pushing the cart directly, at least they are relaxed in their hands before leaving the supermarket.

Li Jia took the broccoli and small tomatoes and looked around. "Mr. Zhongye" and "Zhongye" followed behind her pushing the cart. The two teenagers looked exactly the same, only slightly different in their clothes and expressions, which frequently attracted passers-by. look up.

"Mr. Zhongye" pulled up the hood of the hoodie, but they couldn't stop their gaze. He asked uncomfortably, "What are they looking at?"

What is there to stare at them all the time, aren't they all people who go out to buy things in the supermarket?

He also patted the top of his head to make sure his ears weren't protruding. He still looks like a normal teenager, and there's nothing worth seeing.

"No matter what they are looking at, we just need to be more careful." "Zhong Ye" calmly scanned the surrounding people, silently raising his vigilance.

The most important thing is not to let Lijia have any accidents again. If they can't even protect the people who stay under their noses, they will be called protectors in vain.

The low voices of the teenagers did not avoid Li Jia. She blinked and looked back at them, and then looked at a few passers-by who would sneak a few glances as they passed by, unconsciously showing a shallow arc.

Probably a passer-by who mistook "Mr. Zhongye" and "Zhongye" for twins, saw the good-looking but rare twins, and couldn't help but sneak a few more glances when passing by, without any malice.

However, cats are indeed animals that are very sensitive to sight. Even if humans just look at them quietly from behind or beside them, it will arouse the vigilance of cats.

"Is there anything to be happy about?" "Mr. Zhongye" blinked inexplicably, Li Jia looked back at them, and suddenly laughed, obviously there was nothing worth laughing about.

Although it didn't mean to be teasing, such an inexplicable laugh still made him unable to stop his doubts.

Li Jia narrowed her eyes and smiled, picked two identical broccoli and put them in the hands of "Mr. Zhongye" and "Zhongye", making them even more puzzled.

She gestured cheerfully, don't you think these two broccoli look alike?

"Zhong Ye" raised his eyebrows, and said slowly: "They really look alike."

So Li Jia was happy because she saw the same broccoli?He raised his eyebrows and looked over, with unfinished words in his expression.

Li Jia put the two broccoli back into the fresh-keeping bag, tapped the backs of their hands, and signaled them like he used to play with cats in the little game of cat's claws and meat pads.

"Mr. Zhongye" and "Zhongye" realized that what Li Jia actually said was that their appearance was like identical broccoli in the eyes of strangers, they were rare twins.

Because it feels so rare, I can't help but stare at them a few more times.

It was the first time for them to speculate on Li Jia's words based on the feeling of guessing.

It has always been Li Jia who guessed the meaning of the cats' meows. They can easily understand Li Jia's words and respond. It is not easy to guess the meaning of her words just by relying on her expression and gestures like this .

However, human expressions are easier to recognize than cat expressions, and they can make gestures with their hands, which is much easier to guess than their meows. It was really not easy for Li Jia to understand their meaning from their meows.

"Mr. Zhongye" muttered speechlessly: "What's so interesting about this?"

He turned his head to look at the appearance of "Zhong Ye", and he didn't think there was anything interesting about the appearance of two identical people at the same time, it was worth passers-by pretending to be nonchalant and sneaking over to look at them over and over again.

There are actually people who deliberately came over to take a peek, and wandered around without buying anything.

Li Jia covered her lips and smiled, and added two more broccoli.

Now she didn't need to say more, they also understood what she meant.

"Tsk, as long as we don't come out together?" Just thinking about how the four Zhongye Zhongye would meet more stares when they went out, "Zhongye" became very irritable.

People in the Mafia would be very wary of inexplicable gazes, and the cat's nature of not wanting to be stared at made him even more irritable.

No one will pay attention to four identical cats, but they will keep watching when four identical people appear. I really don't understand what kind of mentality this is.

Li Jia put the broccoli into the shopping cart, and instead of continuing to choose other dishes, turned around and led them away from the fresh fruit and vegetable area to the second floor of the department store.

"Mr. Zhongye" looked at Li Jia wandering around in the toy area and the daily necessities area, and asked strangely: "Apart from the things on the list, is there anything else I need to buy?"

He remembered that Lijia's list only wrote the ingredients to buy when he went out, and there was nothing else.

Li Jia was about to answer his question, when she glanced at the discounted items not far away, her eyes lit up.

She was recovering from her right foot and couldn't walk fast, her throat was speechless and she couldn't tell them what she was looking for, so she could only walk slowly and lead people there.

Seeing that Lijia was walking towards the special area where there was a [-]-yen special sale, both "Mr. Zhongye" and "Zhongye" couldn't help showing strange expressions of incomprehension.

The special price section in department stores is mostly miscellaneous and unsalable products that have been kept in the warehouse for a long time. In order to clear the warehouse space and try to find a way to recover some of the cost, all the products are piled up here regardless of category.

They couldn't think of anything that Lijia wanted to buy here.

Li Jia lowered her head and rummaged through the messy goods, and found out the inferior funny sunglasses made of plastic, put them on with great interest and turned around.

The exaggerated star sunglasses hang loosely on the ears, blocking most of Lijia's face, making her delicate and lovely appearance funny, especially the way she raised her mouth and turned her head to look at it, which makes people feel cute and cute funny.

"Zhong Ye" couldn't help but let go of his frowning brows, and he couldn't help but said, "Why did you suddenly think of coming here to buy sunglasses?"

And it's flat glasses that tend to be playful and funny and don't have prescriptions.

"...Pfft," "Mr. Zhongye" pressed his fist to his lips, couldn't hold back his laughter, and said, "It's quite interesting."

The gray lenses covered Li Jia's vision in a seven thousand eighty-eight, she was not used to seeing things through sunglasses, and she did not see clearly the expressions on the faces of "Mr. Zhongye" and "Zhongye". Can't stop laughing and can't stop laughing at all.

Li Jia took off her sunglasses, smiled and tilted her head and handed them to "Zhong Ye".

He was stunned and stopped laughing, he didn't understand what she meant for a while, and saw that Li Jia turned around and found a pair of fancy glasses that were no less exaggerated than star glasses and handed them to "Mr. Zhongye", looking at them expectantly.

"Do you want us to wear these?" "Zhong Ye" hesitated, he had already seen the effect of wearing this pair of glasses just now.

The 16-year-old Zhong Yuanzhong is still a bit smug, caring about his image in front of the girl he likes, he hesitates and does not move.

Li Jia nodded vigorously, facing them with a small round mirror in her hand, her eyes shining brightly.

"Mr. Zhongye" and "Zhongye" looked at each other, and said helplessly, "You don't want to buy these two glasses, do you?"

That being said, they still put on funny glasses according to Li Jia's wishes.

They didn't even need to look in the mirror, they could guess how funny Zhong Yuan Zhong was wearing funny glasses just by looking at the other person's face.

"Hahahaha so stupid!" "This looks too stupid hahahaha!"

Even the face of "Nakahara Chuya" can't help but smile when he sees his funny face, he bends down and hugs his stomach, laughs until tears come out and he can't stop.

Li Jia smiled cutely, and chose three different pairs of funny glasses, one for herself and the other two in the shopping cart for "Mr. Zhongye" and "Brother Zhongye" to take back.

Wearing such funny glasses, probably no one will pay attention to the similar looks between "Zhongye-kun" and "Zhongye". Although they may be regarded as weird people, but they all wear similar glasses, even if they are regarded as weird people What does it matter.

The three of Li Jia swaggered back to the fresh fruit and vegetable area wearing funny glasses. This time, even if someone looked at them again, it was only because of the strange glasses that they looked twice more and did not deliberately come around to watch non-stop. The mother who took the child took the initiative to take the child away from these "weirds".

With the help of funny glasses, they can finally buy the fresh ingredients they want in the fresh food supermarket comfortably and leisurely. They can also let "Zhongyejun" or "Zhongye" squeeze into the crowd when they meet a [-]-yuan special price Rob.

The one-hundred-yuan special offer in fresh supermarkets is to pack a bag of vegetables. As long as you can walk to the checkout counter without falling out, you can get fresh vegetables that you usually pay several times the price at a discounted price.

Li Jia has encountered supermarkets doing special promotions several times before, and she can’t even squeeze in the crowd with a fresh-keeping bag, let alone grab the special vegetables. Let them help you grab it.

She happily counted the trophies of the two teenagers, and was so excited that she almost fell into the shopping cart. "Mr. Zhongye" tugged at the crumpled clothes, grabbed the girl's shoulders and carried them back.

He sighed slightly depressed, and glanced at "Zhong Ye" who was also in a panic.

No matter how extraordinary their skills and physical skills are, even if they squeezed into the crowd and competed with experienced housewives for special vegetables, they couldn't come out in good condition.

Housewives who plan carefully and spend every penny wisely at home will show extraordinary combat effectiveness in the supermarket, which even "Central Plains Zhongye" will be willing to bow down to.
