Chapter 516 Busy Before the New Year
My aunt is no longer opposed to these medicines; in fact, she thinks it's good to have them, at least they give people a little hope, right?
Moreover, some people with terminal illnesses live to a ripe old age.

She thought she had to try her best to live to old age, until the day her children no longer needed her.

Even when that day comes, she won't be able to close her eyes in peace.

Even if their children are in their seventies or eighties, parents can't truly rest easy.

The mother and daughter chatted for a while, then started working.

It's almost noon, time to get busy.

With the Lunar New Year approaching, every household is very busy.

All sorts of fried food need to be prepared. On his way back, my uncle also picked up two basins of fried food that someone else had delivered.

Later, seeing that he couldn't carry any more, his aunt specially brought some over.

Don't let my aunt's bad temper fool you; she'll fight back if she's not satisfied.

However, it's also true that she's popular.

When other families send gifts, my aunt always prepares a return gift.

Just then, Sheng Jiu brought back some beef, mutton, and rabbit meat. Auntie looked at them all and was quite satisfied with them, but she couldn't refuse to give them to Sheng Jiu.

Xiao Jiu's filial piety deserves to be widely publicized.

So, in the end, she chose the biggest cow, had Lin Duo cut the beef, and personally delivered it to him.

Sheng Jiu:......

Can't stop it.

Sheng Jiu had no choice but to let her do as she pleased.

She then started preparing lunch with Lin Duo.

She had been using the wood-burning stove in her home for many years and was very familiar with it.

Therefore, there is no need for the aunt to help.

The eldest uncle sat there silently tending the fire, checking on the stove every now and then.

In the village, heating is mostly achieved through stoves.

Electric heater?
That thing uses so much electricity.

A stove is still the best.

Although coal is not cheap, when you do the math, it's definitely much more cost-effective than electricity.

Moreover, the stove can be kept burning all day and night for heating without feeling bad about wasting fuel.

The electric heaters are running day and night, and the electricity bills can jump to alarming levels!
Auntie went out for a walk and praised Sheng Jiu a lot.

Of course, along the way, they would inevitably encounter some enthusiastic aunties who wanted to introduce Sheng Jiu to potential partners or Sheng Zexuan to potential partners.

The aunt didn't respond, but smiled and said that the children should make their own decisions, and she didn't care about such things anymore, as sometimes it was a thankless task.

This topic still resonates with many.

An aunt who was about to arrange a blind date for her child but was so disheartened by the rebuke she received has something to say.

Woohoo!

She's lowered her standards to the point where she'd accept bringing a same-sex man home; she could just take blood pressure medication if necessary.

But no!
They don't even look at it!

Neither the son nor the daughter will watch it.

It's over!
At noon, everyone enjoyed a delicious lunch.

My aunt ate the beef and ribs cooked by Sheng Jiu and couldn't help but praise them.

As the children grow up, their skills also improve.

Her culinary skills are now good enough to support a restaurant.

However, my aunt always felt that it was bad for a young girl's skin and health to do kitchen work.

It's never as dignified as sitting in an office building.

However, if the child likes it, then let her be.

After getting sick, she really came to terms with many things.

Compared to before, he has become much more peaceful.

If her aunt hadn't finished eating and angrily berated the chickens trying to escape, Sheng Jiu would have truly believed that she was now calm and had even improved her temper. In reality, that wasn't the case at all.
In the evening, Sheng Zexuan returned.

Starting tomorrow, the internet cafe will also be closed, and he will stay closed until the tenth of the lunar month.

Sheng Zexuan's internet cafe is located in the town, next to two small factories, so it has a decent number of people who use it regularly.

Despite the proliferation of smartphones, mobile games have dominated the game charts.

However, some PC games remain popular and many people still enjoy playing them.

Therefore, the internet cafe business is not bad.

As soon as Sheng Zexuan returned, he told Sheng Jiu about the cocklebur powder.

This thing is so useful!
Since Sheng Zexuan insisted on using it last time and has been using it ever since, his rhinitis has not flared up even once.

He also caught a cold once in between, but it wasn't as bad as before!
Not only him, but his good friend was also no longer upset.

My good buddy almost went to his house to set off some firecrackers to thank his godfather for saving him!

Before the arrival of the cocklebur powder, Sheng Zexuan's good friend had been sleeping on the sofa for more than half a month because he had been sneezing constantly in the morning due to nasal sensitivity, which disturbed his girlfriend.

But after eating cocklebur powder, I'm all better now!

For the first two days, I still sneezed, but the number of sneezes decreased significantly.

After a week, they basically stopped playing!
Now, not only has he returned to the bedroom, but the wedding date has also been set!
Next May Day, Sheng Zexuan will be able to attend his wedding banquet.

"As soon as my brother got better, everyone else in the dorm knew. Although not everyone has rhinitis, who doesn't have it? Whether it's temporary or permanent, as long as we can get through the winter comfortably, that's good enough!"

"Many people have come to ask me about it. Some think it's too expensive and are still hesitating, but others can't wait any longer."

……

Shengzexuan has received quite a few orders.

However, considering the uncertainty of Sheng Jiu's situation, he had asked on WeChat beforehand, and Sheng Jiu had shipped a few orders.

Sheng Zeqing has recently received some more orders and is sharing them with Sheng Jiu.

The siblings have a good relationship, which makes their aunt happy.

Sheng Zexuan thought Lin Duo was a good person.

They are quick to respond to tasks and have excellent physical strength. When it matters, they are ready to step in without hesitation.

Sheng Zexuan thought, finally, there is another laborer in this family.

Upon learning that he wasn't Sheng Jiu's boyfriend, Sheng Zexuan's hostility towards Lin Duo instantly subsided, and the two began discussing how to help him the next day.

Tomorrow, we'll be frying all sorts of things at home. In previous years, my aunt would do it.

This year, although she has recovered very well, she is still ill, and neither her uncle nor Sheng Zexuan agrees to let her cook anymore.

Cooking a couple of meals occasionally is fine, but not at times like this!

Sheng Zexuan originally wanted to do it himself, but Lin Duo said he could. Although Sheng Zexuan was a little skeptical, he thought that since Lin Duo was an employee of the store, he must know a little bit, right?

The house has quite a few rooms, and Sheng Jiu lives with Sheng Siyu.

Sometimes, the two of them would stay at their grandfather's old house.

Shengzexuan is a separate room.

Now that Lin Duo has taken over, it wouldn't be good to let him squeeze in with the old man, so he went with Sheng Zexuan.

Since the outbreak of the apocalypse, Lin Duo has rarely been around anyone when he sleeps.

Even former teammates are now separated by a great distance.

Unlike now...

I ended up sharing a bed with Sheng Zexuan.

Although it's a two-meter-wide bed, there's really not much space when two tall men squeeze in.

I always feel like I could slap the other person in the face if I turn around.

Lin Duo lay there stiffly, completely still.

Sheng Zexuan was worried that he wouldn't be used to it, but seeing him like this, he couldn't help but laugh: "You lying like this is a bit scary. It's okay to turn over."
