After the wedding: I’m not stupid anymore, I’ll beat up anyone who messes with me!

Chapter 586: Living frugally

Huo Shaobei entered the mall and went straight to the counter. "Comrade, please give me a pair of these shoes."

"Comrade, it's you. We have the size you want today." The salesperson immediately took out the size Huo Shaobei had requested and handed it to him.

It's a pair of small red leather shoes.

It’s National Day, let’s dance.

The girl was wearing red leather shoes.

Otherwise, Huo Shaobei wouldn't have made this special trip.

"Yes, it's this size. Give me the ticket."

Huo Shaobei came out of the department store, carrying his shoes and riding his bicycle home.

"Xiaobei, you're back. The postman just came to deliver the mail. Take a look."

When Grandma Zhao saw her grandson-in-law coming back, she immediately brought up the matter.

letter?

Letter delivered by the postman.

After handing the little leather shoes to Grandma Zhao, Huo Shaobei saw the letter as soon as he entered the house.

"It should be the letter Nini mailed back, take a look."

Grandma Lu found it a little strange.

Doesn’t my granddaughter-in-law go to work?

Do you need to go out of town to work?

Beijing is so big, can't I work in Beijing?

Grandpa Lu had glanced at the address on the envelope before. It was quite far away from them, and his previous guess was confirmed in his mind.

Enter the secret unit.

But this is a good thing for these young people, and it is also a happy event for the Huo family.

Huo Shaobei opened the letter, which contained several tickets and a receipt.

"Nini mailed back her salary and tickets."

But there was no letter inside.

"Nini mailed back the money and check to let her know she's safe. Here's her address. I'll write to her later. Grandpa and grandma, what do you want to say to her?"

Grandpa Lu was surprised for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

This is obviously the salary and tickets mailed from somewhere. It's not even a letter mailed. You can imagine how high the level of confidentiality is.

Not to mention writing a reply.

There is no way Xiaobei doesn't know about this.

Unless it is to reassure Nini's grandparents.

But he didn't point it out.

Grandma Zhao immediately said, "Tell Nini that Little Lemon and Little Pomelo are used to going to school and can sing and dance. Tell her not to worry about home."

Huo Shaobei took note and said, "Grandma, I know. I will definitely write it down and tell Nini."

"Master, what about you?"

Grandpa Zhao smiled and said, "Tell Nini not to worry about home, and tell her to take good care of herself."

"Sir, I'll write it down."

Grandma Lu looked at Grandma Zhao and Grandpa Zhao, opened her mouth several times, but finally swallowed it and didn't ask.

"Grandma Xiaobei, Grandpa Xiaobei, Nini didn't stay in Beijing because of work. When she's free, she'll go to Shanghai to see you."

Grandpa Lu smiled and said, "It's okay, work is more important."

But he really didn't expect that his granddaughter-in-law had this ability.

However, it seems that it is not difficult to achieve such an achievement as a female engineer.

While the post office was still open, Huo Shaobei deliberately went to the room and took out an envelope.

"Grandpa, grandma, I'll go get the money back."

"Go, go." Grandma Zhao waved to Huo Shaobei. They were already used to it. Every time Zhao Yunshu's salary arrived, she asked Huo Shaobei to get it back. They were old and didn't know how to withdraw money.

"Grandma Nini, how much is Nini's monthly salary?"

Grandma Lu was just curious.

Grandma Zhao didn't hide it. "Nini's company is good, but they often work away from home. They earn over a hundred yuan a month, which is enough for our family to live on."

Over one hundred?

Grandpa Lu was not surprised when he heard the salary.

People with ability are popular wherever they go.

What's more, Nini wants to make money and can earn more.

She repairs machines, and people pay her thousands of dollars for each repair. Compared with hiring foreign engineers to repair a machine, her repair fee is much cheaper.

"That's pretty good." Grandma Lu thought about the combined monthly pension of her old man and herself, which was close to two hundred yuan.

Nini has so much by herself.

"Grandma Xiaobei, I'm going out to exchange some food coupons. I'll be back soon. Someone has already reserved my national food coupons."

Grandma Zhao had really made an appointment with someone, and they had asked about it several times.

This exchange rate is not low.

"Okay, go ahead and get busy."

Grandpa Zhao invited them to drink tea and honey water.

Although Grandma Lu and Grandpa Lu have only been with Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao for a few days, they get along well.

"My wife and I came to Beijing without food coupons. Our household registration isn't here. Nini and Xiaobei's household registration is at school. Xiaoyouzi and Xiaoningme have food coupons, but if we don't find a way, it won't be enough for us. National food coupons can be exchanged for local food coupons. One kilogram of food coupons can be exchanged for four or five kilograms of local food coupons."

"What's the big deal? As the saying goes, an old person in the family is like a treasure. If you hadn't come to Jing City to help Xiaobei and his family take care of the children, the young couple wouldn't know what to do."

Grandpa Lu was not exaggerating.

My daughter and son-in-law, one is a military doctor and the other is a soldier. It is impossible for them to retire and take care of the children at this time.

As for my in-laws and mother-in-law, it is not difficult to see that they suffered a lot when they were young.

It’s okay to just entertain the child, but if I have to take care of the child, I’m afraid I won’t be able to handle it.

As for my granddaughter-in-law's parents and her brothers, it is not convenient for them to come and help take care of the children at this time.

Nini's grandma and grandpa came to help take care of the children to reduce the burden on Nini and Xiaobei.

The young couple was admitted to university and both had to go to school, so they had no time to take care of me.

What's more, the two children are really well taken care of by Nini's grandma and grandpa.

Be polite and patient.

"Little Pomelo and Little Lemon are so cute, it's all thanks to your efforts."

The topic was immediately opened up.

Anyway, when Grandma Zhao came back with a smile on her face, the three of them were chatting enthusiastically.

"I took the food coupons and exchanged them immediately. I was in a hurry to use them because I had to go on a business trip and didn't have any national food coupons. I didn't know what to do. When they knew I had coupons, they exchanged them immediately and even gave me a few persimmons."

Only by budgeting carefully can we have enough food for the family.

"Xiaobei should be back soon. He doesn't have classes until the afternoon, and it's not too late. Let's go cook."

Grandma Lu now often cooks with Grandma Zhao. Although there is a gap in their educational background, one is illiterate and the other is a lady from a wealthy family, they can still chat and cook together.

"Tofu fish."

Several elderly people like this dish.

And with bait, they can eat fish frequently and even buy seafood.

Huo Shaobei did come back very quickly.

This time, I gave the money I got back directly to Grandma Zhao.

And Grandma Zhao accepted it with a smile.

Grandma Lu saw it but said nothing.

The money that Nini mailed back was used as the family’s monthly expenses.

"Xiaobei, there are persimmons. You can eat them now. The food will have to wait."

“This year’s new persimmons.”
