Chapter 30 The Deaf Old Lady Gives New Shoes, Let's Go Together (Ask for a Gift!)



Ye Chen watched Xu Hui put away the prescription, smiled and said nothing.

"Then I'll go back to the courtyard first, Sister Huihui!"

"Hurry up and go back! I'll close the shop after I tidy up again." Xu Hui said without raising her head.

Ye Chen returned to the gate of the courtyard, just in time to meet Sha Zhu coming back.

"Brother Zhu, what did you bring back today?"

"Braised pork! But you don't have much to eat tonight, I have to take it to work!" Sha Zhu whispered.

"What are you doing?"

"Didn't you see Teacher Ran last night? I haven't seen any news from her. I think about it. Let Sister Qin ask her to see what she thinks of me?"

The two walked while talking, when they met Qin Huairu washing clothes in the yard.

She was wearing a dark red floral jacket with rolled up sleeves, and her two white lotus-like arms were dangling...

"Sister Ru! It's cold, why don't you boil some hot water to wash your clothes!" Ye Chen asked.

"You don't have to ask for coal to heat hot water, and you don't have to pay for coal? It's a little bit of savings!" Qin Huairu took his hand out of the cold water, and chuckled at his mouth.

"Sister Qin, can you help me ask Mr. Bang, how did he get along with me last night?" Silly Zhu spoke.

"You can ask, what are you holding here?" Qin Huairu looked at the iron lunch box in Sha Zhu's hand.

"Hey! It's all the best braised pork, I specially bring it to honor you!" Sha Zhu handed over the lunch box.

"That's all right! You're smart, I'll ask BangGou to find out for you tomorrow!"

"Come on, thank you, Sister Qin!" Silly Zhu laughed happily.

When the two brothers were about to go back to the house, the deaf old lady called them from behind.

"Silly Zhu, Ye Chen! Come on, come on!"

The two trotted to her side.

"What's the matter, old lady?"

"Come on, come back to the house with me!"

The deaf old lady took the two back to the house and took out two pairs of black cotton shoes from the bed.

"Come on, try it!"

"Hey! New shoes, old lady, when did you buy them?" Sha Zhu asked.

"I won't tell you!"

"No wonder you asked me for my brother's and my foot size two days ago, so you wanted to buy us shoes!"

"That's why I'm getting old now. If I were a few years younger, I wouldn't need to buy them. I'll make a pair for each of you. That would be a comfortable fit." The deaf old lady said with a sigh.

"I know that, you are famous for your ingenuity in the courtyard!"

"That's not!"

Ye Chen and the two of them tried on the shoes, and they were just right.

"Okay, the shoes fit well! Then I'm relieved!" the deaf old lady said with a smile.

"Grandma, the Spring Festival is coming soon, let's spend it together, I'll buy minced meat for a few dollars, and make dumplings, it's so lively!" Ye Chen said with a smile.

"That's right, look back at me, cook more delicious food, and celebrate the new year happily together!" Silly Zhu also said.

"Then let's call Qin Huairu's family again, it will be even more lively!"

"Then you go and tell me, I won't go, her mother-in-law sees a man all day long and looks like a thief, as if who would be interested in Qin Huairu!" Silly Zhu looked at Ye Chen and said.

"Okay! Leave it to me!"

Ye Chen is not afraid of that Mrs. Zhang, she can say whatever she wants.

"Okay! They are really my two good grandsons!"

"Congratulations to the host for gaining +10 favorability with the deaf old lady!"

Ye Chen was overjoyed, the ten o'clock this time was not for Shazhu's face, it was because the deaf old lady accepted her existence sincerely.

The deaf old lady looked at the two big guys in front of her with tears in her eyes.

"Oh! Why are you still crying! Isn't it just to make you dumplings and cook some delicious dishes!" Ye Chen said.

"That's right, it's not worth it! If I show my unique skills, old lady...you can't give me one!" Silly Zhu said with a smile.

"What are you talking about!" the deaf old lady wiped her eyes.

"I said, during the Chinese New Year, we two brothers kowtow to you!" Silly Zhu said loudly, he didn't know that the deaf old lady actually had good ears.

The deaf old lady knew that Shazhu was just talking about it, but she was just being the first one in her heart.

"Grandma didn't give you lucky money!"

"I don't need your new year's money, just your pair of shoes!" Ye Chen said with a smile.

Wearing new shoes, the two danced around the house.

"Look, it's really suitable!"

"It's really good!" The deaf old lady nodded.

The second uncle Liu Haizhong's home.

The second aunt put the freshly scrambled eggs on the table.

"Here we go! Eat!"

"Oh, it smells so good! Let me have a taste!" The youngest of the Liu family sniffed it and said.

"Go, go! This is for your dad!" The second aunt said, slapping her son's chopsticks away.

"Can't you just take a bite?"

"no!"

At this moment, the second son of the Liu family came back. He opened the door and said directly, "It's so delicious! Egg smell? Are we still willing to scramble eggs?"

"It's not for us!" The third child said while eating pickles.

"Why are you leaving get off work so late?" San Niang asked as she put the cornbread next to her son.

"Don't mention it, there is a defective product in the workshop, and everyone won't leave. They have to finish the investigation! It's not busy until now!"

The second child picked up the steamed bread and prepared to eat a piece of egg.

The second uncle picked his chopsticks aside.

"What are you doing, Dad! You can't even take a bite!" said the second child dissatisfied.

The second uncle didn't speak, he stuffed all the eggs into his mouth, took a sip of the wine, and smashed his mouth twice.

"What a sting! Mom, scramble an egg for me too!" said the second child.

The second aunt stretched out her hand, "Money!"

"Tsk, can't I pay more next month?"

"No! Didn't you say it? New people, new affairs, new country, earn money and spend it yourself!"

"Mom, I didn't say that! It's your eldest son, my brother!"

"Your brother got married and left, of course he has to say that! Hurry up and eat pickles!"

The third child threw his chopsticks away and said, "Don't eat. When my brother got married, he gave up all his family fortune, so it's just my two brothers who are left. They are both your sons. Why?"

"Go, go! If you don't eat it, don't eat it. I'll save a cornbread!" said the second aunt.

"If you don't give eggs to eat, why don't you give me a sip of wine?" The second child picked up the wine bottle and prepared to pour himself a sip.

One was snatched by the second aunt.

"Eat corn bread! You didn't even pay for the drink! Eat your corn bread!"

"Hey! Mom, don't imitate my father, can you! My eldest brother is right in saying, 'Parents are not kind, children are not filial!' You two will have to rely on our elder brothers for your retirement in the future! "

"Come on! Your father and I are going to point fingers at you, I'm so hungry and beg for food! Eat it, the cornbread is cold!"

"Oh! The cornbread is hot, but the heart is cold!" The second son sighed, and went back to the house with the cornbread.

Ye Chen and Silly Zhu returned to the room.

"Hey, don't tell me, the old lady treats us really well! It's like a grandson!" Silly Zhu said with a smile.

"Then stop complaining behind her back!"

"I was joking with her! By the way, while Qin Huairu is still up, go and tell her about the Chinese New Year!" Silly Zhu remembered what Ye Chen said.

"Alright, then you rest first, I'll go out for a while!"
