My Childhood Sweetheart Gradually Puffed Up CH.75
Chapter 75: Today’s Goal is to Mooch off Food and Drink
Considering that today’s goal was to eat and drink, Wen Yu brought some of his own money in addition to the class funds.
But Fu Chengque sighed all the way, and the reason was ultimately due to being short of money, passing by the snack shops but unable to enter. Unfortunately, today was sandwiched between Christmas and New Year’s Day, with various shops offering significant discounts, and Fu Chengque couldn’t resist.
Wholesale market.
Fu Chengque complained all the way, and none of it was good.
“These nuts can be seen and smelled but not eaten. They appear healthy, but they’re full of sugar and fat!”
“These snacks sold by weight, haha, they’re probably from small workshops. I dare not eat them, not eating!”
“Oh my god, so many drinks, are these really drinks? Clearly, it’s a mountain of sugar…”
After listening to her rant for a while, Wen Yu couldn’t bear it anymore.
“Do you want to eat?”
“Impossible!”
“Then I’ll buy some.”
“You buy! Buy some for me too, I’ll taste them.”
Too pitiful.
Mr. Wen couldn’t bear to see it.
“Do you need to borrow money?”
“!” Fu Chengque jumped suddenly, “I finally paid off my debts!”
“Have you decided to mooch off food and drink?”
“Oh, then I haven’t eaten any fewer snacks.”
Wen Yu couldn’t be bothered to argue with her, so he weighed a pound of bulk snacks and ate them as he walked.
Beside him, Fu Chengque’s hand naturally reached into the bag and pulled out a jellybean.
She happily peeled it open, slurped it up forcefully, sucked the whole jellybean into her mouth, and swallowed it whole, looking satisfied.
“Oh, it’s not salty. It’s delicious!”
Wen Yu glanced at her, and she seemed to become more confident, snatching the snack bag from him and starting to search for more.
The young man simply ignored her and went to bargain with the shopkeeper.
Chatting, haggling, and tasting, they finally bought 15 pounds of melon seeds, a few pounds of peanuts, and some other bulk dried fruits. According to the usual scale of class funds, it was definitely impossible to afford extra nuts, but this time there was more class fund, and it was the last year, so getting a bit more was not a big deal.
It was chilly outside, the sooner they finished, the sooner they could go home.
Fu Chengque had a snack, feeling completely comfortable. The unsolvable task made people irritable, but going out was enjoyable, so she volunteered to help carry the bags.
“Wen Yu, Wen Yu, how was the shopping?”
“I bought most of the items that can be stored for a long time. Oranges and tangerines are options, we might go buy them the day after tomorrow.”
“So fast, it doesn’t feel like you bought much.”
“You’ve just been eating, I’ve got everything sorted.”
“Nonsense, I’m also helping to carry.”
“I’ll put the stuff in my bag and carry it, some merchants can deliver directly to the school, so it’s not that troublesome.”
“Oh, oh, hehe, comfortable.”
After seeing the vendors start delivering goods directly by tricycle, the two of them relaxed and started shopping lightly.
Fu Chengque looked at the dazzling array of food products, her eyes shining.
“I’ll retire after I succeed and come set up a stall.”
“Selling what?”
“Well, general wholesale, selling everything!”
“That’s good, having dreams is enough.”
“What about you?”
“It’s too noisy here, I now prefer quiet mountain forests. I want a hilltop.”
“You won’t accompany me to run a stall?!”
“Why should I accompany you to run a stall.”
“If you’re not here, what if I get cheated in business?!”
“Don’t worry, I’ll leave you a home at the foot of the mountain, and you’ll guard the gate for me when the time comes.”
“I’ll burn down your mountain.”
“Burning mountains, serving a long sentence. If the Empress commits a crime, she shares the same fate as the common people.”
Fu Chengque glanced at Wen Yu and then looked around at the faces of the people of all kinds. She asked slowly, “Do you think they can make money?”
“If they’re not making money, why are they performing sales here for you?”
“How much can they make?”
“They should make more than our parents.”
“So rich!”
“Don’t judge a book by its cover, Empress.”
“Damn it, with the three principles you set, having many friends, high grades, everything is going smoothly, but I’m just confused about money…”
“It’s too early for you to talk about money now, don’t be impatient.”
She squinted at Wen Yu and looked him up and down before saying, “Why do I feel like you’re quite wealthy? You’ve been spending money a lot lately, and it feels like you can’t spend it all. Do you have a lot of New Year’s money?”
“I’m investing.”
“What’s that?!”
“The ability for money to make more money, you kids wouldn’t understand.”
Fu Chengque was greatly surprised, her childhood friend next door actually had this ability, she really wanted to learn, so annoying, she really wanted to learn…
“How much money have you made?”
Wen Yu didn’t know how to answer, so he gestured a spherical shape, “Probably a nest.”
Understood.
Playing with her again.
Fu Chengque snorted and looked around, spotting a candy store, her eyes lit up.
In the store, apart from scattered candies, there were also the very popular flat rainbow-colored candies from earlier.
Rainbow-colored, bigger than a head, and when asked the price, it was only 6 yuan.
But Empress still couldn’t afford it.
She turned back and looked at Wen Yu, her expression resentful as she said, “You have money, please pay for me first, I’ll pay you back next month.”
Wen Yu approached, looking serious.
“Okay, but you have to do a favor for me.”
“President Wen, who do you want me to do a favor for?” Is it Chen Minghe or the president with the surname Ao!
“The assistant magistrate of Beizhen Prefecture, Jin Yichuan.”
“Who!?” Fu Chengque was instantly confused.
Wen Yu couldn’t help but laugh out loud, seeing the girl dumbfounded, he continued, “Empress, don’t you know he’s my junior brother?”
“You still have a junior brother?!” Fu Chengque was shocked.
“Empress misunderstood, this person is my beloved relative and brother.” His expression turned disdainful, “It’ll cost extra!”
After saying that, he burst into laughter.
In the end, Fu Chengque still got the flat candies she wanted, but her mind was already occupied by someone named Jin and “extra cost,” and even licking the candies didn’t feel sweet anymore.
Wen Yu was so strange, inexplicably.
After another stroll, stuffing the backpack Wen Yu brought to the brim, spending most of the funds, the two of them also bought drinks and leisurely returned to school.
In the security room at the school gate, several banners were ready, the rented audio equipment and snacks ordered from vendors had arrived, and the two of them also called two boys from the class to help carry them to the cabinet prepared by Chen’s class in advance, so as not to be gnawed by rats while waiting these two days.
With this, the preliminary work of the two was basically completed, and all that was left was to carry out the party step by step.
Fu Chengque had set a small dance program for herself, so on Saturday night, she was still practicing dancing in her bedroom.
Through the window, Wen Yu watched the girl opposite him, wearing frog pajamas, jumping up and down very seriously, occasionally stopping to adjust her movements.
She also saw Wen Yu watching her and proudly lifted her chin at him, as if to say:
I can dance better than you!
It’s really interesting.
She probably didn’t know that Wen Yu didn’t want to dance at all; he just wanted to watch.
Just wanted his side of the curtains to never be drawn automatically, even dared to meet her gaze, to see her dancing, he wanted to see it whenever he looked up.
Because the curtains on the opposite side weren’t drawn either.
