Not bad for money and Grandet

Yu Jiaqing has already bought a ticket for the No. 30 bus, and she will return to her hometown before New Year's Day, so the gift cannot be given as a New Year's gift, but a Christmas present.Luo Zizhao planned to move to Kang Jiayin's house on New Year's Day, although his mother said that he could not move next semester, he couldn't wait.Kang Jiayin only charged 4000 yuan a month, rent plus living expenses.

Yu Jiaqing gently opened the door, but Kang Jiayin and her siblings hadn't gotten up yet, so she winked at Luo Zizhao, entered the room lightly, and closed the door.Then divide the gifts and put them at the door of their room.After putting it away, Yu Jiaqing went back to her room to catch up on sleep. She went to work at nine o'clock and could sleep until after eight o'clock.

Luo Zizhao sat on the sofa, waiting to see the expressions of the three Kang Jiayin brothers and sisters getting up to unwrap the presents.The first one to get up was Kang Jiayin. He came out yawning with his flattened hair, rubbing his eyes and kicking a box away without looking at his feet. Luo Zizhao hurriedly called out: "Be careful!" !"

Kang Jiayin woke up instantly, looked at Luo Zizhao, and said in surprise, "You, why are you at my house?"

"Merry Christmas!" Luo Zizhao raised his hand and waved his fingers.

"Merry Christmas!" Kang Jiayin stared blankly at Luo Zizhao in the red coat, still a little unresponsive, how did he come in?Climbing the chimney, his house doesn't have it either.He looked down at the cellophane-wrapped box on the ground, bent down and picked it up, "What is this?"

Luo Zizhao smiled and said, "A Christmas present."

Kang Jiayin said, "Did you send it?"

"No, I'm just a porter. Take it apart and have a look, the blue one is yours, and the red one is Ah Hua's." Luo Zizhao said with a smile. He actually thought about giving a gift, but it seemed that he didn't think about it carefully. There is no reason, in China, Christmas is usually given by couples, of course, Yu Jiaqing is an exception.

Kang Jiayin is so smart, he understood: "Sister Qing brought you in?"

"Bingo!" Luo Zizhao snapped his fingers, "You can open the present now."

Kang Jiayin picked up the blue gift box and put it on the tea table: "Wait a minute, I'll go to the bathroom first."

As soon as he left, Kang Jiahui got up with his chicken coop on his head, and when he opened the door, he saw the gift at the door, and was suddenly overjoyed: "Wow, are there any gifts, Christmas presents?"

Luo Zizhao cleared his throat, and Kang Jiahui noticed him: "Ah! Brother Zhao?" Then he slammed the door shut.

Luo Zizhao shrugged inexplicably. After a while, Kang Jiayin came out after releasing the water, and Kang Jiahui also came out neatly dressed in a ponytail. It seemed that she also knew how to maintain her image in front of outsiders. She pushed the glasses on the bridge of her nose: "Brother Zhao, early Ah. Is this from you?" She held the gift box.

Luo Zizhao shook his head: "No, Sister Qing gave it to me. I'm just a porter."

Kang Jiayin had already opened the two boxes, and took out a pair of jeans and a pair of sneakers. After a moment of silence, he licked his lips and said, "Sister Qing is spending money indiscriminately again."

Kang Jiahui also opened the gift, took the clothes and shoes, and liked it very much, but her brother didn't say anything, so she didn't dare to try it.

Luo Zizhao said: "Try it and see if it suits you. In fact, don't even think about returning it. I bought it for many days and kept it with me. Sister Qing said it was a parting gift."

Kang Jiayin looked at him: "You know how to let her spend money randomly."

"This is Sister Qing's wish for you, can I say not to give it away? The things are not expensive, they are all discounted. Try it." Luo Zizhao advised them.

Kang Jiayin took a look at the black gangster's white-edged shoes, and finally put them on. They were neither too big nor too small, and they were just right.The shoes were chosen by Luo Zizhao to try on, and he bought them only when he felt comfortable. Although they were a few centimeters apart in stature, their shoe sizes were the same.

Kang Jiahui also couldn't wait to put on the shoes with pink stripes, and she couldn't bear to step on the ground, so she walked on the sofa, and the corners of her mouth couldn't hide it: "It's comfortable and light!" In the past, her shoes were bought in the wholesale market Yes, never wore branded shoes.

"Where's Miss Qing?" Kang Jiahui asked.

"Go back to the room to catch up on sleep. She told me to watch you receive gifts." Luo Zizhao said, "Do you want to try on the pants?"

Kang Jiayin took his trousers and went into the bedroom. As soon as he entered, Kang Jiahua jumped out and called happily, "Is there a gift?"

"It's at the door." Luo Zizhao reminded him.

Kang Jiahua quickly picked up the gift, and happily turned around in circles: "Is it all mine? Ouye, thank you brother Zhao!"

"It's from Sister Qing."

"Thank you, Sister Qing!" Kang Jiahua excitedly ran into the room to unwrap the presents.

Not long after, Kang Jiayin came out wearing new jeans. These were straight narrow-leg pants. Kang Jiayin's legs were long and straight, and the pants were tailor-made for him. Luo Zizhao couldn't help but whistle when he saw it: " nice!"

Kang Jiayin glanced at him, then went into the room, and soon came out in school uniform pants. Luo Zizhao looked at his ankle-baring trousers, and couldn't help curling his lips. The school uniform pants are really ugly.Kang Jiayin went into the kitchen to make breakfast: "Have you not had breakfast yet? Eat it at my house."

"Okay!" Luo Zizhao readily agreed.

Kang Jiayin washed and chopped vegetables, boiled the porridge that was cooked last night, added vegetables, and steamed buns from the refrigerator.Then I went to take a shower and washed my hair by the way, the hair on the back of my head was finally not flat.After washing up, breakfast is almost ready, Kang Jiahui and Kang Jiahua also finished washing, Kang Jiayin said to Luo Zizhao: "Okay, let's have breakfast."

Spinach porridge is steamed stuffed buns. Steamed stuffed buns stuffed with Chinese cabbage and tofu have a thin skin and big stuffing. Although they are vegetarian buns, they taste extremely delicious. Luo Zizhao asked, "Where did you buy these buns?"

Kang Jiahua said, "We did it ourselves."

Luo Zizhao said in surprise, "Do you know how to make buns?"

Kang Jiahui said: "My brother will, he used to work in a breakfast restaurant."

Luo Zizhao gave a thumbs up: "Awesome!" It was inevitable that he felt a little sad, the breakfast shop got up earlier than the chicken, if it wasn't forced by life, who would do this.

Luo Zizhao ate four steamed buns in one go, still feeling a little unsatisfied. Seeing that there were no two steamed buns left on the plate, he had to stop to drink porridge.Kang Jiayin said: "If you want to eat, you can continue to eat. You still have to eat enough."

Luo Zizhao chuckled: "I'm afraid you don't have enough food."

"Enough. There is still in the steamer." Kang Jiayin said.

Luo Zizhao took another one and ate it.After eating and drinking enough, he went out with the three Kang Jiayin brothers and sisters. After he moved here, this is his daily life. Kang Jiayin's craftsmanship is really good. I don't know what other treasures can be dug up. Luo Zizhao couldn't help being very look forward to it.

When they arrived at school, the two of them received a lot of cards and chocolates in their respective drawers. It was not the first time Luo Zizhao received them, but Kang Jiayin obviously received more than him.In the past, Luo Zizhao distributed the chocolates to others. This year, he took a look and gave the chocolates to Kang Jiayin: "Give it to you."

Kang Jiayin looked at him: "What are you doing for me?"

"Give it to Ah Hui and Ah Hua, save money to buy snacks." He grinned, tore up the cards and threw them into the trash without even looking at them.

Kang Jiayin put away those cards without looking at them, and stuffed them into his schoolbag.Luo Zizhao stared at his schoolbag: "Why do you keep those?"

Kang Jiayin said: "Although other people's wishes cannot be accepted, they should not be torn apart."

"Then why did you refuse a girl who gave you something before?" Luo Zizhao saw it with his own eyes.

Kang Jiayin looked at him speechlessly: "Do you want me to go back one by one?"

Luo Zizhao thought for a while, if he went to find those girls one by one, wouldn't their wishes be fulfilled?It is impossible for Kang Jiayin to have that American time.

Yu Jiaqing packed her own things and sent them back one after another, throwing away what she didn't need, and leaving the things that couldn't be taken away with the Kang Jiayin brothers and sisters. On the evening of the 30th, Luo Zizhao and Kang Jiayin saw Yu Jiaqing off. She didn't take the high-speed train that departed during the day, but an ordinary train at night. They happened to have time to see her off.

Before leaving, Yu Jiaqing invited them to dinner. In a Hunan restaurant, Yu Jiaqing said: "In the future, when you come to Hunan, I will treat you to more authentic Hunan cuisine."

At the end of the meal, except for Luo Zizhao and Kang Jiayin, everyone else wiped away their tears, and the atmosphere was once very sad.Sending Yu Jiaqing away, Kang Jiahui and Kang Jiahua burst into tears, Kang Jiayin turned his head away, and Luo Zizhao saw him quietly wipe his eyes with his hands.Luo Zizhao has been silently accompanying them all the time, and when Yu Jiaqing is gone, he will accompany the three brothers and sisters.

New Year's Day was Wednesday, and the school only had one day off. Luo Zizhao didn't come home, he was busy moving.Luo Wenlong and Cai Meiyu also came. Their son insisted on moving now, but the nine cows could not be brought back, so they had to help clean up.

Luo Zizhao lived in the room where Kang Jiayin and his younger brother lived. This was Luo Meiyu's insistence, because the master bedroom was lived in by Kang Jiayin's parents, and she didn't want her son to live in it.Although Kang Jiayin's father didn't get sick at home, nor did he pass away at home, Kang Jiayin didn't say anything, but vacated the room. The master bedroom is bigger, and it's more convenient for the brothers to live in.

Luo Zizhao felt a little sorry for Kang Jiayin, afraid that he would be embarrassed and suspicious, so Kang Jiayin comforted him instead: "It's okay, I didn't think carefully, I originally thought that this room would be bigger for you to live in, but I didn't consider that it was my parents' room Yes. It’s not bad for me and Ah Hua to live together, the room is wider.”

Only then did Luo Zizhao feel relieved.

The three brothers and sisters vacated the room and cleaned it up, waiting for Luo Zizhao to move in.Luo Zizhao's things are mainly clothes and shoes, as well as a bed, some tableware and kitchen utensils, and other furniture and appliances belong to the landlord, so it is not too difficult to move.

Cai Meiyu is actually not very satisfied with Kang Jiayin's house, the furniture inside is too old, the only thing that is passable is that it is clean and tidy, I don't know why her son insists on moving here.

Cai Meiyu and Luo Wenlong personally helped Luo Zizhao build a bed and pack things. Kang Jiayin took the initiative to keep them for dinner: "Uncle and aunt, let's have a light meal at my house at noon."

Luo Wenlong said: "Don't bother, I'll invite you out to eat at noon today."

Cai Meiyu gave her husband a hand and said, "Then trouble Xiaokang." Her son said he was good at craftsmanship, but she wanted to see if it was true.

Kang Jiayin and his younger sister went to the kitchen to make lunch, while Luo Zizhao's family of three were packing things in the house.In all fairness, apart from being a bit old, this house is actually quite warm. Yu Jiaqing is a person who loves life. She likes to grow flowers and plants. There are several pots of flowers and plants on the balcony of each room, so even in winter, there are some flowers that bloom beautifully. Zhengyan.

Luo Wenlong looked at it and said, "Actually, it's not bad. This house is popular and feels like a home. The three of them have good grades. You should follow suit and try to get into a university."

When Cai Meiyu heard her husband having a dream, she couldn't help but said, "If my son can be admitted to university, this would be a treasure trove of geomantic omen."

"Maybe it's true." Luo Wenlong said with a smile.

Cai Meiyu saw Kang Jiayin brothers and sisters busy in the kitchen, and walked over to be polite: "Do you need Auntie's help with cooking?"

Kang Jiayin turned back and smiled: "No need, Auntie, I can do it, you can take a rest first."

Cai Meiyu nodded: "Then it will be hard work for you."

Kang Jiayin bought the food early in the morning.He knew that Luo Zizhao was in such a hurry to move here so that he could have a stable rent income. He could also guess that his parents, at least his mother, were actually reluctant for him to move here because the conditions of his family were not good, so he had to try his best. Let his parents feel that living here is still cost-effective, at least they won't be wronged when it comes to food.

In order to entertain the guests, Kang Jiayin spent a lot of money this time. He bought fish, shrimp, oysters, chicken and duck, and made braised fish, boiled shrimp, garlic oysters, Kung Pao chicken and beer duck. In addition, there was a soup and two dishes. A vegetarian dish, to be honest, they have never eaten such a hearty one during Chinese New Year.

Luo Zizhao looked at the dishes on the table, turned to look at Kang Jiayin, suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, because he made him compromise.

Kang Jiayin took off his apron and said, "Luo Zizhao, call uncle and aunt to eat."

For this meal, Kang Jiayin also went to buy a few stools, the kind of plastic stools, at least not allowing everyone to stand or squat to eat.

Everyone sat around the table, Luo Zizhao and his parents sat on one side, and the three Kang family siblings sat on the other side.Cai Meiyu took a bite of braised fish and said with a smile: "I heard from Ah Zhao that Xiaokang's cooking skills are very good, so Auntie wanted to try it. I tried it today, and it really is, even better than Auntie's cooking. "

"Auntie, you have won the prize. If you like it, eat more." Kang Jiayin glanced at Luo Zizhao who was opposite, not knowing what he told his mother.

Luo Zizhao chuckled: "Mom, I'm not wrong, Kang Jiayin's cooking is better than Auntie's cooking, and he can make buns, so I will be lucky in the future."

Luo Wenlong nodded while eating: "You are indeed doing well. Xiaokang, you are really excellent and capable. You study well and you can cook like this."

Kang Jiayin smiled: "This is just a basic life skill."

When Cai Meiyu heard this, she couldn't help but looked up at Kang Jiayin: "When did you start cooking by yourself?"

Kang Jiayin said: "13 years old."

Cai Meiyu nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and said to the three brothers and sisters opposite: "You all eat. Xiaokang asked your younger brothers and sisters to add vegetables to eat."

Kang Jiahui and Kang Jiahua ate this meal very cautiously, because there were two elders present, they hadn't eaten with the elders for a long time, and they were afraid that they would be disliked if they ate too much.

Luo Zizhao stood up, took an oyster each for Jia Hui and Jia Hua, looked at Kang Jiayin, and gave him one too: "Why are you all so gentle? Eat it. My parents are not tigers, they don't know how to eat people of."

Kang Jiayin looked at him, and slightly twitched the corners of his mouth: "Uncle and aunt, you can eat too." As he spoke, he lowered his head and started eating.

Cai Meiyu chatted while eating, "Xiaokang, my family Ah Zhao likes to eat seafood, you should try to buy as much seafood as possible."

"Mom, wouldn't I tell Kang Jiayin what I want to eat? I still need you to tell me." Luo Zizhao felt a little ashamed, his mother took care of everything.

Kang Jiayin nodded seriously: "Okay, I see."

Luo Wenlong said: "I think the cost of living is still a bit low, 2000 yuan is not enough, let's add another [-] yuan."

Kang Jiayin quickly said: "That's enough, uncle. Two thousand is enough."

"Look, our family, Azhao, has a tricky mouth. If we want to eat good food, I think it's better to eat more, so as not to be insufficient, I'll let you post it." Luo Wenlong said.

Cai Meiyu also said: "I also think it's an extra thousand. He moved to your place, which saved me money. Isn't the reason we earn so much money to make our children live better?"

Luo Zizhao winked at Kang Jiayin: "Let me tell you, take it."

When Kang Jiayin heard this, he could only nod his head: "Okay." His parents didn't want to wrong their son when it came to eating, so of course he couldn't force him to lower the standards for him.

After lunch, Cai Meiyu asked her son: "Azhao, will you go back with us? If you go back, you can ask your dad to take you to school tomorrow morning."

Luo Zizhao waved his hand: "No, I have to make up lessons at night. The final exam is coming soon, and I have to hurry up to review."

Luo Wenlong reached out and touched his head: "Okay, it's rare that my son is willing to study so hard, so let's not hold back. Ah Zhao, study hard, get along well with Xiaokang brothers and sisters, and don't bully others."

"Understood, old Dou, you treat me like a three-year-old child." Luo Zizhao made a face at his father.

The three Kang Jiayin brothers and sisters watched their father and son interacting, and their eyes could not help showing envy.Luo Zizhao sent his parents away, and when he came back, he lay on Kang Jiayin's back who was bending over and mopping the floor: "Haha, landlord, please take care of me in the future!"

Kang Jiayin didn't straighten up, and let him lie on his stomach, thinking in his heart, who is taking care of whom?
