Chapter 55 Giving Gifts (Second Update)

Song Hongguo sent the two of them away. When she came back, she saw Ling Zhi rubbing the screen with a worried look on his face. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry, these things are not out of line and won't cause trouble."

"Really?" Ling Zhi felt uneasy, "Ordinary people can't use this thing. Moreover, this wood... is rosewood. In the past, it was the only thing that was willing to use it."

"You quite understand." Song Hongguo teased. Seeing that he was really worried, she had to explain, "This was recommended by the uncle of the scrap collection station. If there was a problem, how could he dare to show it? Rosewood is precious.

But look at this screen, all the paintings on it have been damaged. Let’s nail the reed mats and make it as plain and simple as possible. There is no taboo.”

"What about this bathtub? This is made of yellow cedar wood..."

"This is what the uncle brought up on his own initiative. They are all well-established. Just take it to heart. Do you think we use these things to be extravagant? There are people out there who use red sandalwood and huanghuali. Buy them openly.

They are not exploited and robbed, and they are not put on the line."

"Xiao Zhi, you have to remember that my mother is working class now, and so are you. Unless you offend someone severely, who is going to find trouble after being full?" Song Hongguo knelt down, looked at him levelly, and said meaningfully.

He said, "Besides, we live in the village now, and the captain is here, and he doesn't allow anyone to jump out and disturb things."

"As long as we don't mention the past, we won't have any trouble."

Ling Zhi's pupils shrank, "What if the past is exposed?"

Song Hongguo smiled and touched his head, and said in a brisk tone, "How to expose it? There are only a few people who know about this matter. Your father, my adoptive father, the middleman Zhou Changqing, and Xu Jiashu all know little about it. Who do you think will expose it?"

Secret? My adoptive father has passed away. There is no doubt about your father's feelings for you. As for Zhou Changqing, he will not joke about his own future and that of his family. Therefore, secrets will always remain secrets, unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless one day, your father can come and take you back openly."

"How is that possible?" Ling Zhi's expression suddenly became dull.

Song Hongguo knew that it was not possible, but that it would definitely happen in the future, but she couldn't say it now. She could only say, "You still have to have dreams. What if it comes true?"

"..."

Seeing his speechless expression, Song Hongguo laughed happily again and turned around to tease Ling Yuan, "Do you like the furniture that mom bought?"

Ling Yuan's thoughts were not as heavy as his brother's, and he was just feeling pure joy at the moment, "Yeah, I like it. The kang cabinet is nice, the wardrobe is nice, and the set of tables and chairs under the front building is the best, and there are so many cabinets."

,Mom, what do you want to use it for? Let’s go and clean it up now, okay?”

"Wait a minute, there are still things that haven't been taken out." Song Hongguo grabbed him and first freed the big white goose that had its feet tied. As soon as it was free, the big white goose ran away.

"Oh, Mom, it's dishonest. I'll catch it and bring it back..."

"Hahaha, don't worry. The door is closed. Where can it go? Don't worry about it. When it gets tired of tossing, it will be honest. Don't compete with it in the future. The goose is very powerful. It can be used as a guard dog.

.”

"Really?" Ling Yuan's eyes widened and he couldn't believe it.

Lexus asked in confusion, "Where did you buy it from?"

Song Hongguo said casually, "At the entrance of the hospital, don't worry, it's someone Xu Jiashu knows. He's eager for money to treat his child. He will sell it when he has no choice."

"How much?"

"Five dollars."

Song Hongguo could have said less to save him from talking about it, but after hesitating for a moment, she still chose to tell the truth. Unexpectedly, Ling Zhi didn't say anything this time and nodded, "That big goose looks like it weighs more than ten kilograms.

It’s not too bad.”

Song Hongguo couldn't help but asked in surprise, "Don't you think it's expensive?"

Ling Zhi said calmly, "Didn't you say that the other party is anxiously waiting for money to pay for medical treatment for his child? Saving people is urgent and it is a life, so five yuan is not expensive."

Song Hongguo gave him a thumbs up, "Yes, he is very careful when he should be stingy, and he is not ambiguous when he should be generous. He is a person who does big things."

Ling Zhi blushed at the teasing and quickly changed the subject, "What did you buy in those two bags?"

"Guess?"

"..."

If he kept teasing him, he would go berserk. Song Hongguo took out the things. Onions, ginger, potatoes, etc. were all very common. Ling Zhi was not too surprised when he saw dried chili peppers, peppercorns and star anise. But when he saw the big bones

When eating pork belly, I can no longer remain calm.

"It's not the right time, why did you buy so much meat?" You can't live any longer?

"Of course when you buy meat, you eat it."

"... Then there is no need to buy so much?" Such a big piece must weigh at least two kilograms. It is still good quality pork belly. The fat is very thick and can produce a lot of oil.

"I've thought about what's missing, so I'll chop a small piece into stuffing to make dumplings or wontons. Let's make braised pork for lunch this afternoon. Don't you like braised pork mixed with rice the most?"

Ling Zhi was suddenly hit in the heart, and his throat was so choked that he could not speak.

"Brother, mom is so kind to you, and she is still thinking about what you like to eat the most." Ling Yuan smiled and joked, "Of course, mom is also kind to me. I remember that my favorite food is dumplings. Mom, what is your favorite thing to eat?"

Huh? When I grow up and have the ability to make money, I will buy it for you every day."

Song Hongguo felt as if a spring rain had hit her heart when she heard, "Mom likes hot pot."

“What is hot pot?”

Ling Zhi had calmed down now, so he explained to his brother what hot pot was, and finally said to Song Hongguo, "When I make money in the future, I will buy it for you too."

"Okay, then mom is waiting for her son to show his respect. Come, let's see what good things mom has bought for you..." Song Hongguo also put out the snacks and toys in another bag one by one, with a smile in her eyes, "I like it."

?”

"Wow!" Ling Yuan's eyes were exhausted and he asked in disbelief, "Mom, did you buy these for us?"

"Yes, these are food, sweet potato sticks, dried apricots, melon seeds, and biscuits. These are toys, including nine-ring rings, Luban locks, marbles, and tops. Can you play with them?"

Ling Yuan blinked and didn't know what to say for a moment, so he turned to look at his brother.

Ling Zhi was numb by now, and said with a dull face, "You don't need to buy these things, it's a waste of money. We are already old, we don't need to eat snacks or play with toys."

"How can a child not like to eat snacks and play with toys?" Song Hongguo looked at him and said helplessly, "Since you call me mom, then you are my children, how can it be a waste if I buy things for you?

money?"

"But……"

"No but, this is a gift from me to you. You can also give it to me later."

"Well, well, I will definitely give mom the best gift."

Hearing what his brother said, Ling Zhi nodded and said solemnly, "Me too."
