Chapter 7 This is for women
"Sister~"
Jiang Jin threw himself into Jiang Yu's arms and said, "I won't marry a wife. I will take care of you and grandpa in your old age."
Jiang Yu pushed him away in disgust, "You are so dirty, there might be fleas and lice on your head and body, you should boil some water and wash your hair and take a bath."
Jiang Jin also looked at her sister's face with disdain, "Isn't the soot on your face dirty?"
"I'm cleaner than you!"
Jiang Yu raised her chin, "I take a bath at Sister Xiu's place every day before coming back. Sister Xiu said I am a great beauty. If I don't apply soot, can the Chen family cancel the engagement?"
Grandpa Jiang: "..."
"Alright, alright, Xiaojin, go boil some water, Xiaoyu, go wash your face and go to bed."
Jiang Yu went out to wash his face with cold water, and came back to teach his grandfather how to unscrew the syrup cap. "One cap at a time, three times a day. The medicine is very cheap, nine yuan over there, equivalent to sixteen cents here.
Grandpa, don't save it. It will get worse if you delay. This medicine will go bad in a month after it is opened, and it can't last more than two years if it's unopened."
Only after seeing his grandfather drink the syrup with his own eyes did Jiang Yu go back to his room to sleep.
After drinking the syrup, his throat and chest felt extremely comfortable. Grandpa Jiang became even more curious about the other world, but it was a pity that he couldn't get in.
……
There were two bunches of green vegetables on the table in the main room, and Jiang Yu only took one.
Hearing the noise, Zheng Xiu walked out of the bedroom, "Why are you so early today?"
Jiang Yu put down the tray and vegetables, "Insomnia."
Zheng Xiu raised her eyebrows. A silly heartless girl would also suffer from insomnia?
"I was rejected."
Jiang Yu sat on the sofa and said, "I plan to be a strong woman and a non-marriage advocate."
Zheng Xiu: "..."
Did she teach him the wrong way?
Seeing that Jiang Yu was a little unhappy, Zheng Xiu asked carefully, "Do you like your fiancé?"
"No!"
Jiang Yu shook her head. "I've been carrying the title of someone else's fiancée for more than ten years, and suddenly I gave it up. I feel relieved and a little bit..."
"Confused?"
Zheng Xiu continued for her, "It's just that you can't find your goal, or you've been working towards a goal, and suddenly the goal is gone, and you don't know what to do?"
Jiang Yu thought for a moment and said, "It seems a bit like that, but I have a goal. I want to build a big house, find a wife for my brother, and buy servants for my grandfather."
Zheng Xiu: "..."
You have big goals.
She threw a card to Jiang Yu, "Your temporary ID card is ready, go wash up, we'll go get a temporary residence permit."
Zheng Xiu transferred three thousand yuan to her eldest brother and asked him to find someone in her hometown to secretly register Jiang Yu's household registration, regardless of whether he was in the rural or urban area, and to have it processed and sent over as soon as possible.
The expedited document arrived early in the morning.
Jiang Yu looked at the card. It was about the same size as Sister Xiu’s ID card, except that it didn’t have a photo.
She didn't know much of the local characters, but Sister Xiu had taught her her name.
Seeing her name on the card, Jiang Yu smiled. She had a pass. "Thank you, Sister Xiu."
She quickly washed up and urged Zheng Xiu to change her clothes faster.
……
You need a photo to apply for a temporary residence permit, and you also have to mail the photo back to apply for a formal ID card.
Jiang Yu was pressed by Zheng Xiu onto a stool and sat stiffly.
Seeing the person who painted her portrait crawling into the black cloth of a shelf and pointing his finger at her to "look here, look here", she couldn't help laughing. Her eyes were stung by the bright light, which scared her.
How could it be more dazzling than the first time Sister Xiu shone the flashlight on her?
Zheng Xiu couldn't help laughing, "Ayu, sit still and let the master take another picture."
Dazzled by the light again, Jiang Yu was prepared and not so stupid anymore.
The photographer was very satisfied and said, "Come and pick it up tomorrow."
"Expedite it."
After paying an expedited fee of 20 yuan and having to wait for two hours, Zheng Xiu took Jiang Yu to a nearby vegetable market to buy vegetables.
Pork belly, onions, ginger, garlic, potatoes, star anise, and two bags of miscellaneous items.
Just as he walked out of the vegetable market, Zheng Xiu was knocked down by someone.
Jiang Yu went to help, and Zheng Xiu pointed at the man who ran away, "Thief, that man is a thief!"
Thief? Thief?
Jiang Yu let go of Zheng Xiu and put down the plastic bag in her hand, "Sister Xiu, wait a minute."
"do not go……"
Zheng Xiu's Erkang hand stopped in mid-air, and Jiang Yu had already chased out.
"Little thief, don't run!" Jiang Yu chased the man into an alley, kicked his feet, jumped up and kicked the figure in front of him.
He turned around and blocked with his backhand.
Jiang Yu's great strength is not only in his hands, but also in his feet.
‘Crack! ’
There was a slight sound on his arm. Qin Yue just frowned slightly and shouted coldly, "Who are you?"
"You little thief, you stole... ugh."
Jiang Yu's eyes saw a figure running out of the alley opposite. That figure was the one he was chasing.
"sorry."
Jiang Yu slid past Qin Yue sideways, "Opposite Big Foot, Building 502, Unit , . I'll pay for it."
After saying this, Jiang Yu ran to the opposite alley and disappeared in a flash.
"Whoosh..."
Zheng Xiu ran after him breathlessly, carrying the bag. She only saw Jiang Yu's back as she turned out of the alley. She shouted, "Ayu, stop chasing me."
Qin Yue turned around and looked over, "You, know that woman?"
"Yes, it is."
Zheng Xiu pressed her abdomen. Her stomach ached from running so much. If she had known earlier, she would have sat in the photo studio and waited.
Qin Yue held his right arm and said, "My arm was broken by her kick."
Zheng Xiu: "..."
Didn’t you check the almanac before going out today?
"What did she say?"
"Opposite Bigfoot, building 502, unit , . She'll pay for it."
Zheng Xiu: "..."
Pay it! If you have no money, you will dare to fight in the village. If you have money, you will be even less afraid.
Zheng Xiu said nothing.
Qin Yue was silent.
The two waited in the alley. After a while, Jiang Yu came back with a handbag, "Sister Xiu, your handbag."
Zheng Xiu looked at Jiang Yu with a puzzled look, "Have you seen how much money is in the handbag?"
"I saw it. It's over 500."
Jiang Yu handed the handbag to Zheng Xiu, "I have your ID card and temporary residence permit."
Zheng Xiu took the handbag and asked, "Where is the thief?"
"Let it go."
"why?"
"He has an 80-year-old mother and a three-year-old child. I couldn't bear to hand him over to the police."
Zheng Xiu: "..."
"This is the most typical plea for mercy from a captured person. It's always played on TV. Do you believe it?"
Sister Xiu got angry.
Jiang Yu took a step back timidly, revealing an innocent look like a little white rabbit, "I don't know, I watch TV every day, and it's not on."
Zheng Xiu held her forehead with her hand. She was also confused by this silly girl.
Apart from knowing that the big thing in the middle of the living room is called a TV, this girl has never watched TV.
She didn't have time, and Jiang Yu had even less time, so they never opened it.
"What should we do now?"
Zheng Xiu pointed at Qin Yue. Jiang Yu looked over with a vague look in his eyes. "I, I'll pay."
Qin Yue followed the two of them back to 502.
Zheng Xiu invited Qin Yue to sit down.
Jiang Yu ran into the second bedroom and quickly took out a silver bracelet, "I'll give it to you as compensation."
Zheng Xiu: "..."
If she didn't live upstairs, she would really like to dig out a house with her toes.
Qin Yue looked at the sincere face in front of him and said, "This is for women."
Jiang Yu: "..."
"Then I'll cut it for you."
Seeing Jiang Yu was about to get the pliers from the shoe cabinet, Zheng Xiu reached out and held the bracelet, gritted her teeth and whispered, "Ayu, pay me, RMB."
Jiang Yu: "..."
Didn’t Sister Xiu say that gold and silver are hard currencies?
