Chapter 218 Fortunately, I Managed to Hold Back the 40-Meter-Long Sword (Asking for Monthly Tickets)
Children are indeed very resilient. We haven't seen him for more than two months, and Niu Dunben has grown a lot taller. "I can't save you. I can only hold you down and give you a belt."
It caused a burst of laughter.
Niu Menben turned around again: "Dad, show your family status."
Niu Mo's face turned pale. Women at thirty are like wolves and at forty, like tigers. All he can do now is not to look at his wife.
"Ahem." Niu Moo turned a blind eye and pretended to be addicted to the world of drama.
Finally, everyone at the table was seated, and Niu Mo quietly asked Jingshu: "Did you make your mother's pool?"
Jingshu did not deny or admit it, but asked: "How is it, is it enough to move up to the next level?"
Niu Moo muttered: "Not even close."
Jingshu nodded and understood the meaning.
Niu Mo whispered: "Do you remember Secretary Zhang last time? He suddenly suffered from epilepsy in your villa and died on the way. Later, he was interviewed by reporters and got the title of "died in the line of duty". Later, he was transferred One has come and will leave in a while.”
Jing Shu raised her eyebrows, "Are you going to be promoted?"
"I don't know yet, but don't worry, I will definitely make arrangements for your mother before leaving, but your mother will have to work harder. She will definitely have to arrange for someone else this year, and the deputy minister is in trouble."
Jing Shu gave a thumbs up. This person was indeed a potential stock that suddenly emerged in his previous life. He was rising every year. As long as her mother follows Niu Moo's footsteps, she will definitely be fine.
However, Niu Mo is repaying the favor he had with Qian Duoduo by trading ice cream. The two families have been very close this year. During the holidays, Jingshu’s family will give various gifts, including strawberries every month or two. Once, I would give some eggs and milk from time to time.
It is definitely appropriate to give ten eggs as a gift these days. Not to mention Niu Moo's level, there is no shortage of vegetables, but meat and eggs are definitely lacking. Jingshu's family really scratches the itch of Niu Moo's family I have never seen such a sensible subordinate before, and what I give them is what they need most.
Of course, Niu Moo is a good person and provides electricity during every year and festival. In fact, this is what Jingshu’s family villa lacks the most. Now that Niu Moo provides electricity, Jingshu and ten UBC bacterial solar cells can basically meet the needs. The consumption of the villa can save 1 liter of oil per day.
Electricity, natural gas, and oil are still not open to the outside world.
The courtyard was soon filled with seats. After singing a song in the drama, an old man in a Tang suit walked quickly to the stage and took the microphone. The atmosphere became lively. With a quiet gesture from the old man, the scene suddenly became quiet.
"Originally I didn't want to hold this birthday party for Lao Shizi, which would make money and hurt lives, but if I don't do it, the money I've spent over the years will follow me into the coffin. Thinking about it, it's still too much of a loss."
"Lao Zhang, I gave you a painting as a gift when your grandson got married. I thanked your wife for her ninetieth birthday and gave her the jade stone from Nanshan Mountain. Even if the end of the world comes, the value of your gift can only be more or less than mine. If anyone gives you something of low value today, I won’t recognize him as an old friend.”
"So before we start dinner, I want to ask you old immortals and the younger generation, are you ready to give me my eighty-eighth birthday gift for the old man?"
The scene burst into laughter, and there were even a few camera clicks, but the old man didn't seem to care at all, and even smiled proudly at the camera.
"Okay, then let's have a good meal and a drink first, and then let's start the main event today. It doesn't matter if you don't prepare gifts, you can just prepare virtual coins, hahaha."
Jing Shu raised her eyebrows. Things always seemed to be different from what she thought. Or are the pragmatists nowadays so open-minded? And Jingshu admitted that when the old man said this, she almost failed to guard the 40-meter long sword.
Turning his head, he saw Yang Yang sighing, picking up a piece of carp that had just been caught, and saying while eating: "It's called Thirty-six Scales. I removed the thirty-six scales of this fish and it can still live for a long time. It could have broken through." Yes, it’s a pity.”
"These are the leeks I planted. Did you see that each leek has nine gears? This is the mark I left."
Jing Shu: "..." Yang Yang is afraid that his brain is really abnormal.
The dishes were all served quickly, including a steamed carp, a vegetable stir-fried leek, and a plate of stir-fried meat with lettuce.
The staple food is a bowl of longevity noodles with an egg for each person. There are ten dishes in total. The taste is not bad. Maybe they take care of the middle-aged and elderly people present. They are all very well made and easy to chew. This is also the first time for Jingshu to see it. Seeing so many elderly people, it seems that things are not simple at home.
How big is the portion? To be honest, Jingshu can eat it all by herself, but ordinary people can also eat it to be 80% full.
This dish might have been mediocre before the end of the world, and of course it wasn't as luxurious as Su Marie, but now that the world is here, it's still pretty good to be able to serve twenty tables of this kind of dish, and it can be considered a big hemorrhage. Listening to Yang Yang's muttering Yes, there will be no vegetables or fish to eat from now on, and I will look miserable.
And Jing Shu soon understood why Yang Yang looked so painful, and also understood what he said about the old man kneeling on the washboard.
Jing Shu was not embarrassed to compete with them, so she chewed slowly and listened to Chu Zhuohua's words, chewing 28 times each mouthful.
The meal was finished quickly, and the two plays on the stage were also finished. The old man invited everyone to visit the courtyard, and while he was eating, he cleaned the tables in the courtyard again.
Everyone was seated again, tea had been placed on each table, and the table had been rearranged. At this moment, a man in a black suit knocked on the auction table and said, "Please be quiet, everyone."
The noisy scene at the scene became quiet, and many people seemed to be confused. What was going on?
Isn't it the old man's birthday? Isn't it time to present a gift?
"Okay, I won't say anything extra. I am Shen Sanqiao, the auctioneer invited by Mr. Yang today. Three knocks decide an item. What is being auctioned? The gift you gave to Mr. Yang today will be auctioned. All the virtual currency sold will be used to buy rice from the government!"
"The old man said that his birthday gift should be celebrated by all the people in Wucheng! Everyone in Wucheng should celebrate. The rice purchased by the old man will be given free of charge to people who haven't consumed rice for ten days, with pregnant women, the elderly and children given priority!"
Some people at the scene obviously knew about it and seemed calm, but more people certainly didn't expect it, and they were surprised and couldn't believe it.
Jingshu let out a long breath, "Fortunately, I put away the 40-meter long sword, otherwise I almost misunderstood the good man."
