Becoming a top student in the literature of the era

Chapter 19

Even though the old lady is a lot older, she has survived those difficult times. Since the children at home are still promising, she has seen a lot of good things.

For example, Yang Ci's aunt who was married outside had sent the milk powder to the old lady several times.

It's a pity that the old lady is a frugal person. Every time she receives such a good thing, she is reluctant to part with it. She will share it with several grandchildren at home. Among them, the original owner is the one who benefits the most from the delicious food and drink.

This is why in such a difficult era, the Yang family was able to raise the original owner to be fat, plump and "delicate and tender".

When the old lady heard that the jar contained milk powder, her first reaction was the same as Yang Ci's two sisters, thinking that Yang Ci had done something bad outside.

"Milk powder? Where did you get the milk powder? Are you learning to do bad things?"

After hearing this, Yang Ci put the things aside, held the old lady's arm and explained for a long time, and then the old lady looked at him doubtfully.

Yang Ci felt a little guilty when she saw him. Finally, in order to dispel the doubts in the old lady's eyes, he had no choice but to follow the original owner's habit and reach out to the other party.

Every time the previous owner was kind to his family, it was when he was short of money and tickets.

After showing favor in front of his family, he would shamelessly say that he spent all the money for them, and then use this excuse to ask for more money and tickets from his family.

Yang Ci blushed and stretched out his hand, "I really didn't do anything bad. I really bought these with money. I spent all the money you and grandpa gave me at once. Look, For my filial piety, you have to give me some money and tickets."

Yang Ci was going crazy with shame when he said this. Before time travel, he had relied on himself all his life, let alone asking for money from his relatives at home. It would be nice if they didn't ask him for money in turn.

So this was the first time in his more than 20 years that he had the audacity to ask his elders for money. In order not to make the old man suspicious, I forced myself to imitate the original owner.

Sure enough, when she heard him reaching out for money again, the confusion in the old lady's eyes was replaced by helplessness.

"You, you, you have lost so much money? Ever since you went to school in the commune, you have spent money like this every time. I don't know what you bought every time?"

The old lady kept complaining, but she still picked up the can of milk powder on the ground and walked slowly into the back room.

This jar was the one she gave to Yang Ci before. She suspected that Yang Ci had adulterated the jar, and the contents were definitely not all milk powder.

After all, this jar of milk powder was valuable. The boy would only be willing to spend money to buy something for her when he asked her for money. It was definitely not all milk powder.

But even if Yang Ci was really adulterated, it would only be mixed with a little flour or something. She knew that Yang Ci, her grandson, had many thoughts, but she never dared to harm her family.

It is estimated that he really bought a can of milk powder, but he was not willing to give the whole can to her. So it was half milk powder and half flour, and he kept the remaining half. Otherwise, why else would he have to get a new jar?

The old lady thought she had seen her little grandson clearly, and while angrily taking out the iron box where the money was kept, she couldn't help but take another look at the milk powder can.
