The fifth and sixth zero attacks, the survival of housewives
There is only one shift today, and my father-in-law's illness is slightly better, so I will try to restore my normal update tomorrow.
I don't know why, as soon as Lin Bai came back from the Demon Realm, Shuangqing City was shrouded in a huge rain cloud, and then the light rain began to drift up, Lin Bai found that the light rain brought coolness and dispelled the summer heat, but at the same time it also brought the gloomy atmosphere of autumn.
Sitting under the eaves and listening to the rain, the ticking sound was very pleasant, and Lin Bai lazily put a big word on the rattan chair. Qianqian came out of the house, stuffed a bowl of poached eggs into his hand, then opened the umbrella and walked into the rain......
The female demon king watched Qianqian's slender figure slowly walk away, and then whispered to Lin Bai: "Hey, you really found a good wife, no wonder you refuse to marry other people, and you only recognize Qianqian." ”
Lin Bai spread his hands.
Footsteps sounded behind him again, and the elf princess came out, this girl had forgotten about what happened that night, but when she saw Lin Bai, her face was still very red: "Mr. Demon King...... I...... I went to KFC to work...... See you ...... back."
"Hey, why are you facing me like that?" Lin Bai Khan.
The elven princess's head hung low: "Mother said...... The demons and elves have decided to marry...... It's me and you......"
Lin Bai has to admit this matter, the most important quality of being a man is to be responsible, Lin Bai nodded and said, "That's right." When your mother chooses an auspicious day, I will marry you. ”
"Huh? It's true? The elven princess's face flushed even more. Jumping high like a frightened rabbit: "I...... I'm going to work first......"
The elf princess took three steps and made two steps and ran away!
The female demon king looked at Lin Bai with a weird smile: "Yo." You're getting better and better now. used to say that they would only marry Qianqian, but now they don't refuse. ”
There was a sour look in this woman's tone, Lin Bai could hear it as soon as he heard it, it was easy to deal with her, just play hooligan. Lin Bai deliberately leaned in front of the female demon king, and grinned: "What? Envy? Or I'll marry you too." ”
The female demon king's heart jumped very uncompetitively, and she almost answered the sentence "Okay", and closed her mouth urgently in the moment before this sentence came out, and kicked on Lin Bai's rattan chair. kicked Lin Bai and his chair to the ground, and snorted: "Die, dare to tease this king!" Believe it or not, the king will cut you into seventeen or eighteen pieces. ”
It's good that she doesn't threaten like this, once she threatens to kill someone, Lin Bai is not afraid of her at all, he reached out and hugged her legs, rubbed his face on her thighs twice, and said in a loud voice: "What tender legs...... I'm teasing you, cut me into seventeen or eighteen pieces. ”
The female demon king is too ashamed to live. It was impossible to cut into seventeen or eighteen pieces, she would rather cut herself into seventeen or eighteen pieces than be reluctant to cut Xiaobai, a little regretful, she knew that she had threatened Xiaobai to beat him into a pig's head just now. That's a lot of work. I had to use a teleportation technique, fled back to my room, and covered my head with a quilt.
Lin Bai proudly stretched out his middle finger to her room: "Fight with me." You're two hundred years away. ”――
Before Qianqian married Lin Bai, the family's meals were all made by Blood Phoenix No. 4. Later, Qianqian married in and became the hostess of the Lin family, so she took over the cooking job as a matter of course. Blood Phoenix Four was quite sad about this for a few days, but then she got used to it and stopped talking about cooking.
Unexpectedly, in the evening, Qianqian called back, saying that today's financial statements were a bit much, and she had to work overtime to review them, so she couldn't go home in time, so she asked Lin Bai to find someone else to prepare dinner.
Lin Bai was about to go to the backyard to find Blood Phoenix No. 4, when he saw the elf princess bouncing home, working in KFC for a busy day, she was not tired, but was in good spirits, I don't know what to be happy about.
"What are you happy about?" Lin Bai smiled: "It's just in time, go and help me inform the Blood Phoenix No. 4, Qianqian can't go home to cook today, let her do it." ”
When the elf princess heard this, she immediately clapped her hands and said, "Why do you have to find Blood Phoenix No. 4?" I can cook too! I'll do it...... I...... I'm about to marry you, and I'm going to be half a mistress, so ...... Well...... When Qianqian is away, it's up to me to do it. ”
The blood phoenix No. 4 has a marriage application form signed by me, but I am afraid that it has become a foreign marriage certificate now, and she is also half a hostess. Lin Bai thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it, so he had to sit back in the rattan chair and say, "Okay, you will be in charge of today's dinner." ”
The elf princess was so happy that her steps became brisk: "Then I'll go and prepare...... Heck, I've never cooked in the human world before...... How do you get the ingredients? There's no forest here, so you can't pick up food......"
Lin Bai stretched out his hand and pointed in a direction: "Walk out of the old street and turn towards the main street, there is a Yonghui supermarket over there, and all kinds of vegetables are sold." ”
"Okay, I'm going to go grocery shopping." The elf princess jumped out of the door and ran towards the supermarket, and when she arrived at the door, she saw that there were people surging here, so lively, and the flow of people in the supermarket was not many times more than that of KFC, which made the princess feel a lot of pressure. It took her a lot of effort to squeeze in through a bunch of middle-aged aunts......
"What should I cook?" The princess held her face with her fingers and thought: Of course, the best thing is to make mountain delicacies, all kinds of mushrooms are my best dishes, fragrant mushroom soup, Mr. Demon King will definitely like it, okay, buy mushrooms......
The princess stood in front of the mushroom shelf, and what caught her eye was a huge label: white mushrooms, 12 yuan per catty.
Seeing this price, the princess suddenly felt dizzy, didn't she? Mere white mushrooms, it costs 12 yuan a catty, I only pay 8 yuan for an hour of working at KFC, and I can't buy a pound of white mushrooms? It's unreasonable, one hour is enough time for me to pick dozens of catties of white mushrooms in the forest...... This kind of crazy thing must not be bought.
The princess left the mushroom area, and happened to be selling rabbit meat in front of her, and she secretly rejoiced in her heart: the rabbit is good. I used to be the best at making roast rabbits, and I'm sure I'll love it. Stand in front of the shelf. Take a closer look: raw rabbits, 30 yuan / catty.
The princess only felt that the sky was dark for a while: "Is there a mistake?" A rabbit weighs at least a few pounds. At this price, it costs 100 yuan a piece, oh my God, is it unreasonable? I'm a rabbit in the forest with a bow and an arrow, isn't this price too frustrating! ”
The princess staggered back from the rabbit counter, feeling that her breathing was a little unsmooth, and the prices in the human world were too unreasonable...... By the way, there is a fish seller in front...... You can catch fish in the forest stream at any time, so it shouldn't be expensive, right? What the? 12 yuan a pound?
Black fungus. This is something that can be found everywhere in the forest...... What the? Sun-dried black fungus actually costs 48 yuan a catty? I have to work 6 hours in KFC to buy a pound?
OH! NO! This is not true! The elven princess was hit hard repeatedly, and her whole person was Spartan, standing in front of a dazzling array of dishes, as if turned into stone.
Half an hour later, the elf princess returned to the door with an empty shopping bag containing only two green onions...... She didn't buy it, she picked it up at the supermarket door......
Lin Bai looked at her strangely, and couldn't help but wonder: "What are you doing?" Didn't you go grocery shopping? ”
The elven princess muttered, "It's incredible, how did the people of the human world survive?" Under this frenzied price. Didn't starve to death in large numbers? I'm going back to the forest...... I'm going back to the forest......"
Lin Bai grabbed her shoulders and shook her vigorously twice: "Hey, wake me up." ”
After being shaken a few times, the elven princess's head cleared up a little. She took out two green onions from her shopping bag and said with a smile, "Let's eat these two green onions tonight......
"I'm dizzy, a big family. How is it possible to eat just two shallots? Is your mind confused? ”
The elf princess grabbed Lin Bai's arm and cried, "Mr. Demon King, how many people in the human world will starve to death every day?" ”
"This ...... I don't know the exact number. But it shouldn't be much. Lin Bai spread his hands and said: "Especially in our Huaxia country, the news media never report that someone starved to death. Comparatively speaking, there are more reports of people who die playing games in Internet cafes. ”
"Playing games in an Internet café is terrifying, and the mortality rate is too high." The elf princess shook into the kitchen in a daze: "I'll go make green onions, and I'll call everyone out to drink green onion soup in a while......"
The ghost drinks green onion soup! Lin Bai had no choice but to take this nameless woman, so he had to go to the supermarket by himself, and after a while, he bought back several bags of ingredients and threw them into the kitchen.
The screams of the elf princess soon sounded in the kitchen: "Ahhhh How much does this cost...... Ahhh......h Ahhh......h
"Mr. Demon King, how much does it cost our family to eat a meal?" The elven princess jumped out of the kitchen.
Lin Bai didn't calculate it carefully, there are too many girls in the family, and he always has to eat two or three hundred yuan for a meal, which is not too much, right? He casually reported: "It's about two or three hundred yuan a meal." ”
Two or three hundred? The princess took three steps back: "I worked at KFC all day, counting ten hours, and I only earned 80 yuan......"
Lin Bai said angrily: "Hey, I said, what are you doing here?" Since you're going to marry me soon, then it's time for me to raise you, and the money is not a thing, so you don't need to mention it. ”
"Oh? Should I be raised by my husband when I get married? The elf princess Daqi: "There is still this custom in the human world?" "It turns out that the people of the elven tribe, both men and women, are working, and there is no custom of men working to support the family, but husbands and wives work together to create wealth for the family.
Lin Bai said with a smile: "In our Huaxia, men are responsible for making money to support their families, and women are responsible for being beautiful like flowers...... This has been the case for thousands of years. After a woman gets married, she doesn't need to go out to work, and she can teach her husband and children at home with peace of mind...... Ahem, of course, something has changed in recent decades, but ...... I think it's good to stay the same. ”
The elf princess breathed a sigh of relief: "I see, now I finally know how women in the human world live, and it turns out that I can still use the trick of marrying." ”
Lin Bai took out a stack of money from his arms and put it in the princess's hand: "From today on, you will be responsible for buying vegetables, train you to accept the prices of the human world, and don't always make trouble for me." ”
"Uh...... Good! The elf princess took the money from Lin Bai's hand, she had never accepted alms from others, but the money given by her husband was fine. Looking at the thick stack of money in her hand, the princess suddenly jumped up like a light bulb popping out of Brother Yixiu's head: "Oops, I suddenly remembered, I saw a 6% discount promotion of purple potatoes at the door of the supermarket just now, and now that I have money, I have to hurry up and grab a little and come back and pile it up." ”
At this time, there are a large number of middle-aged aunts at the door of the supermarket around the stall of demolition promotion, purple potatoes are 6% off, the price is very low, each aunt has more or less bought a few catties, but I saw a pure woman who looked very delicate and had no strength to run over, brushing the ground and carrying a basket, at least a few hundred catties...... She put the basket on the scales and snorted, "I'll buy these." ”
The clerk in charge of weighing is all Spartan, and the middle-aged aunt next to him is also Spartan. The elf princess proudly looked at the crowd next to her, and snorted: "Take advantage of the discount to buy more and save some money for my man, this is the way of survival for housewives!" ”
Hey, that's not the point, is it? You are such a delicate girl, how can you carry a basket weighing hundreds of pounds? Everyone's worries were obviously superfluous, the princess seemed delicate, but she was very powerful, and she easily carried the basket weighing hundreds of catties, and ran back to the old street in three steps and two steps...... Leaving behind countless Spartan crowds.
From that day on, there will always be that innocent and delicate girl in the discount promotion store of Yonghui Supermarket, as long as she sees any dishes on sale, she will inevitably buy a big basket...... Slowly, she became a legend among the grocery buyers! Her story has been sung by bards for a thousand years, a thousand years.
Of course, these are all later words, time still has to go back to just now, Lin Bai finally sent away the nameless elf princess, and when he sat back on his beloved rattan chair to rest, the rose demon suddenly ran out of the backyard and ran to Lin Bai, she hurriedly said: "Lord Demon King, something is wrong, when the Black Dragon City was undergoing post-disaster reconstruction work, a large number of monsters suddenly appeared in the cracks in the cracks outside the city, and they were probably also led out by the cataclysm, and they kept coming out of the ground, swarming towards the Black Dragon City under construction, Now the Black Dragon City Lord is leading an army to fight the monsters......"
"What?" Lin Bai Khan: "Is there a mistake?" Lao Tzu went to see it for himself. (To be continued......)
