Chapter 444 The stingy dad is here (2)(1/2)

"Dad, your express delivery!"

A girl of seventeen or eighteen years old ran in from outside carrying a schoolbag.

Holding a black express bag in her hand, she entered the door. While changing her shoes, she curiously asked, "Dad, what did you buy here?"

"I didn't buy anything! I don't believe those things on the Internet!"

In the room, an old man in his fifties came out of the kitchen kicking.

The clothes he wears are very distinctive——

The top is a blue short-sleeved T-shirt with the words "xx Nucleic Acid" on it, and the bottom is a pair of patched shorts.

Yes, patch!

If you just wear advertising shirts given by merchants, it’s not too weird.

But, clothes with patches!

Gee, it’s already 2010. In a second-tier city like a provincial capital, it’s incredible that there are still people wearing patchwork clothes!

Not only were the clothes patched, but the socks the old man wore also showed two thumbs.

As for the slippers, they were glued on and off again.

Look at the style, it’s the style from 20 years ago at least!

The girl was not too surprised when she saw her father like this.

Because she was used to it. Ever since she could remember, she knew that she had a very stingy biological father.

To what extent?

There is no such thing as a "shelf life" for food at home!

Food that is close to its expiration date is the best. Those juices and drinks that are not expired for three to five months are not worthy of appearing at home!

Fruit is always the ugliest, rottest, and smallest.

The vegetables must be processed at the vegetable market in the evening.

It is also common for clothes, underwear, socks or home clothes to have patches at home.

I never watch TV at home, the refrigerator at home is powered off for twelve hours a day, and the water heater is not used as much as possible.

Anyway, just one word - save!

Save money when you die. When people die, money cannot be wasted!

"Then what is this?"

The girl didn't look at her father's weird clothes, but shook the express delivery in her hand.

There was no sound. I felt through the express bag and found that it was hard and somewhat thick. It should be something like a magazine.

This is even more impossible.

With my father being so stingy that he is reluctant to buy books, how could he possibly buy magazines that are even more useless and expensive?!

"I don't know either, just take it apart and take a look!"

The old man scratched his head. He didn't shop online, and he had no relatives or friends to send him anything.

He Yue: ...Dad, with your stubborn character, it’s strange that you have relatives and friends!

The old man doesn't know about his daughter's complaints, and it doesn't matter if he does.

He's just stingy, what's wrong?

If he hadn't been stingy enough, how could he, an uncultured and unskilled rural person, be able to buy a house in a provincial capital and own such a large family property?

The young girl is He Yue, the daughter of the stingy old man.

After hearing her father's words, she tore open the courier bag with all her strength, revealing a thick "magazine"!

"Report on the health of Chinese people?"

He Yue frowned slightly when he saw the cover.

This, this style, this title, it is obviously not a regular magazine.

She looked carefully at some of the titles that appeared on the cover——

"The medical value of Snow Lotus!"

“Experts warn diabetics about two or three things!”

"Be alert! The xx virus is harming the health of Chinese people!"

"Medical authorities have determined that the value of goat milk powder is much higher than that of cow milk powder!"

What is this?

It is exactly the same as those shocking comments on the Internet.

Moreover, He Yue also smelled some kind of "virus".

She stared at the old man with wide eyes, and asked eagerly: "Dad, are you superstitious about some health products?"

Even though her father is very stubborn, he usually doesn't even want to eat meat.

But the news also said that many elderly people who usually live frugally are deceived by health product salesmen into buying health products that cost thousands or tens of thousands of yuan.

There are also some scammers who are engaged in collecting, taking advantage of the elderly's frugality and petty gains, and tricking them into buying some rags.

Her father, ahem, loves to take advantage of others!

People who are often deceived originally originated from the word "greed"!

He Yue is really afraid that his father will be smart in small things but be fooled in big things.

"What about health products? I just saw someone setting up a stall in the park, so I left my phone number and address. Then they sent the magazine to my house!"

Seeing the "Medical Journal" in his daughter's hand, the old man finally remembered this incident.

He doesn't believe in health products or anything like that.

However, this kind of magazine is very good.

He took it over and turned it over in his hand, "Hey, it's quite heavy. You can keep it and sell it for scrap!"

When He Yue heard the first two sentences, He Yue's heart ached.

Setting up a stall in the park, receiving free gifts, or getting free physical therapy, and then defrauding the elderly’s contact information, isn’t it just the routine of health product salesmen?

But after hearing the second half of his father's words, He Yue's anxious heart instantly relaxed.

"Saving scraps to sell?"

He Yue couldn't help but repeat it, sighing in her heart: As expected of my biological father, he is indeed as calculating as ever!

"Yeah, I didn't pay attention to it in the past. Hey, this is a good idea. I have to work hard to pick up junk or something. This kind of health supplement magazine is so good. I just leave an address and they will send it to my home directly.

!”

The old man became more and more excited as he talked, with a burning light in his little eyes.

It was as if he had discovered some kind of wealth code!

He Yue:……

Well, with a father like this, she should have gotten used to it.

"Dad, what are you having for lunch?"

Not wanting to continue this topic, He Yue threw her schoolbag on the sofa and asked casually while going to the toilet to wash her hands.

"There are still leftover dishes from yesterday. I heated them up. In addition, the tenant downstairs gave me some dumplings. You can eat them!"

The old man put the magazine in the corner, turned around and entered the kitchen again.

Leftovers from yesterday?

Keep eating after two hot meals?!

Well, gay fuck!

He Yue was not surprised at all.

As for her father's statement that "the tenant gave dumplings as a gift", He Yue was skeptical.

It’s not that I suspect that the dumplings are not a “gift” from the “tenant”; I still suspect that the dumplings are not a “gift” from the tenant.

It sounds hard to say, isn't it?

The emphasis is different. The former is about doubting the origin of the dumplings, while the latter, ahem, is also about doubting the origin of the dumplings - I guess dad "forced" them to come.

Their family lived in a village in the city. When her father was young, he bought a bungalow in the suburbs because of good luck, a sharp vision, or lack of money.

Within a few years, due to urban planning, universities located in urban areas were moved to the suburbs.

Suddenly, this originally remote place became prosperous with thousands of teachers and students.

With night markets and shopping malls, the economy of the entire region has been boosted.
