Chapter 2223 Cousin is a capitalist lady 42
Zhang Hui wandered over to Zhang Yu and found her writing something on a piece of paper. She leaned over to take a look and asked, "Is it venison?"
"Have we any venison?"
"Cumin lamb? We have lamb here?" Oh my God, Zhang Hui knew that Zhang Yu had been preparing the New Year's Eve dinner during this period, but she didn't expect it to be so sumptuous. It was a shock.
She was very unhappy before, after all, she couldn't go back home for the New Year. Even though she had many complaints about the Zhang family, they were still family after all, and it would be very lively if she went back for the New Year.
But now looking at the meals prepared by Zhang Yu, she felt that there was nothing wrong with not going back for the New Year.
"Yes, we want to have a prosperous New Year. Well, how much do you plan to pay?" Zhang Yu remembered that he forgot to mention the money.
Because most of the meat was prepared by Qian Hao, Zhao Yadong and others, they usually don’t care about these things.
Ahhh, how much money do you plan to spend? This question really stumped her. Looking at the menu, she knew that the New Year’s Eve dinner would definitely not be bad, but she just didn’t think about the issue of money.
She always eats whatever Zhang Yu does. "Well, how much do you think I should pay?"
Although she didn't want to pay, she also knew that if she was not willing to pay, her New Year's Eve dinner would be very bad and there would not be much meat to eat.
Asked how much she should pay, Zhang Yu rolled her eyes unceremoniously, "I hope you can pay a lot, can you?"
"No, do you have money?" Zhang Yu glanced at Zhang Hui's embarrassed face, "You have a lot of money, don't you know how to spend it?"
"Give me five yuan." Zhang Yu thought about it and felt that the amount could not be lower.
What? Zhang Hui knew that if she asked Zhang Yu to ask for a small amount of money, she would definitely get a lot, but she didn't expect that he would ask for five yuan directly.
"You are trying to rob me. Why do you want so much?" Even though she knew that this New Year's Eve dinner was really sumptuous, it was not worth five yuan.
"A lot. At least before the fifth day of the New Year, the food won't be bad." Zhang Yu rolled her eyes rudely. If Zhang Hui hadn't eaten with them before, she would have been reluctant to bring Zhang Hui along.
"You mean the meals will be like this from New Year's Eve to the fifth day of the New Year?" If that's true, the five yuan is really worth it. After all, Zhang Yu's cooking skills are not bad, and it's meat, so it's obvious that it will taste good.
"Not all meals are like this, but every meal has delicious fish and meat." This can still be guaranteed. "If you want to participate, you can participate. If you don't want to, forget it."
Looking at Zhang Yu's impatient attitude, Zhang Hui thought about it and realized that Zhang Yu had never lied to her, so she just agreed to it.
"Okay, I'll pay." Zhang Hui was worried that Zhang Yu would regret it, so she quickly went back to get the money and then gave it directly to Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu said, "I'm also giving this money to Zhao Yadong and the others." Most of the ingredients were prepared by them, so she would not share the money.
When Zhang Hui heard Zhang Yu say that the money was for Zhao Yadong and others, her mood suddenly improved a lot. It was great, really great.
When Zhao Yadong saw the money Zhang Yu stuffed into his hand, he was very confused and didn't understand why he had to give them money for no reason.
"I asked Zhang Hui to pay for this money. After all, she eats with us and the food is so good. She didn't do any work, so she must pay. You guys divide it." Zhang Yu briefly explained where the money came from.
The money Zhang Hui gave him, Zhao Yadong said, "Then I won't be polite."
"By the way, do you need my help?" I remember that every Chinese New Year, the family was very busy, and he, as the assistant, was also very busy.
"No need." Zhang Yu waved her hand, indicating that she could handle it by herself, "It's just the New Year's Eve dinner for the four of us, and it will be done very quickly."
"I used to prepare New Year's Eve dinner for more than ten people by myself. I was the only one who prepared it from start to finish, and no one asked for help." The original owner was really amazing and didn't need anyone's help.
But even if she says it's hard work and wants help, it is expected that no one will help, so it's better to save her energy.
One person preparing a New Year's Eve dinner for more than ten people? Zhao Yadong was shocked, "Can you handle it by yourself?"
"Why not? I still have to wash the family's clothes and take a shower on New Year's Eve."
"I started working when I was ten years old." Zhang Yu said calmly, "I got used to it."
"So these tasks are really not tiring for me." Zhang Yu didn't want to look at the expressions of Zhao Yadong and the others, and didn't want to see their sympathetic eyes.
"Now that I think about it, I should really thank them for their training and for letting me take on all the housework. You don't know, after I came to the Northeast, my family was really in chaos. After all, there was one less person to do the housework."
"They thought that something that a little girl like me could easily do, my sister Zhang Juan could also do. Until now, she hasn't done it well. Thanks to her, my parents now know how important I am." Zhang Yu knew that the school was now on winter vacation, but she didn't know whether Zhang Juan had gone to buy New Year's goods.
We should go shopping, otherwise this New Year's Eve will really become a big joke.
Zhang Juan was running around the vegetable market and the supply and marketing cooperative with coupons, purchasing this and that. To be honest, if her neighbor had not seen her at a loss and kindly offered to take her shopping, she really would not have known that purchasing New Year's goods was so cumbersome.
Some things are purchased here, some are purchased there, and more importantly, even if you have money or coupons, you may not be able to buy them because there are limits on the items.
Neighbors looked at Zhang Juan with a droopy face and couldn't help but compare her with Zhang Yu. "They are sisters, but there is such a big difference."
"That's right. When Xiaoyu was here, we were always the first to get it."
"That's right. We always run in the front. But now look at this girl Zhao Juan. She's running even slower than us older people."
"That's right. When Xiaoyu was here, she would help me carry things. But now it's Zhang Juan. Not only does she not help me carry things, she even wants me to help her carry things."
In the past, Zhang Juan would not accept the fact that she heard what her neighbors said behind her back. It was just buying something, and Zhang Yu could do it, so why couldn't she do it?
Now that she has taken over, she realizes that it is not easy. It requires using her brain and physical strength. It is really tiring.
More importantly, when she returned home with the things she had finally snatched, her parents didn't praise her at all. Instead, they accused her of dawdling and saying that she hadn't cooked or washed clothes.
In short, after returning home, there were still a lot of housework waiting for her to do. Zhang Juan was very unhappy and made a fuss, but her parents' attitude was that if Zhang Yu could do it, why couldn't she do it?
She also said that with two less people at home, housework would be easier. Zhang Juan really wanted to curse. There were indeed two less people at home, but she was not Zhang Yu, so she couldn't do housework as efficiently.
Zhang Juan hated Zhang Fu and the others in her heart. As for Zhang Yu, it was useless to hate him. What made her even more worried was that she didn't know what to do for the New Year's Eve dinner.
