Chapter 70 How to face life calmly

The chicken drumsticks that the chef just poured out were still full of ice cubes, which is bearable because the price is at least half as expensive.

Chen Chao grabbed a chicken leg with relatively little skin and banged it duang duang duang for a while. Fortunately, there were few people around. Chen Xiyun felt a little embarrassed and blushed even as she stood aside.

She put on the mask silently and twisted her hands together.

"You don't have to knock like that, right?" Chen Xiyun pointed her finger at Chen Chao's shoulder and reminded kindly.

"What's the matter? You're wearing a mask? You're not embarrassed by this, are you?" Chen Chao said in surprise, putting down the half-eaten chicken drumstick in his hand.

"Do you want to see how those old ladies buy groceries? Of course they shouldn't suffer losses, otherwise they will be a big bastard and buy chicken legs home, and most of them will be filled with ice water?"

He explained patiently, "It's nothing embarrassing, because everyone actually does this. This is the living situation of ordinary citizens. It's nothing to save some money for life."

Chen Xiyun looked around at the people buying vegetables. Not all of them were elderly. Some middle-aged people would subconsciously squeeze out as much water as possible when buying aquatic products.

Chen Chao continued to knock gently, but no one around him paid attention to him.

There are so many good-looking things in life. You might as well be bold. As long as it doesn't violate the basic principles of human morality, not many people will pay attention to you.

Chen Xiyun looked away, her eyes lowered and she continued to watch Chen Chao select the chicken legs.

Men are really charming when they are serious. For example, Chen Chao can't take his eyes away now, and his deep and distinct facial features have not changed much in his movements. He is focused on picking out chicken legs.

"How much do you want? Are these five chicken legs enough?" Chen Chao suddenly raised his head and turned his attention to Chen Xiyun.

"Ah, what," she came back to her senses at this time, "That's enough, I'll eat it alone anyway." Chen Xiyun said quickly, and then snatched the plastic bag containing the chicken legs in Chen Chao's hand.

"Are you in a hurry? Do you have something to do?" Chen Xiyun's series of confusing behaviors were truly beyond comprehension for Chen Chao.

"No, I still have to buy a bag of fried chicken powder." She was going to put the chicken drumsticks marked with prices at the weighing place in her portable vegetable basket.

"Put it in my cart," Chen Chao pulled the vegetable basket that Chen Xiyun was holding in his hand and took a look at the lettuce, tofu, peppers, green onions and chicken legs.

Chen Xiyun didn't know what to say and followed him silently.

"Are you going to have lettuce and tofu soup and fried chicken legs?" he asked casually.

Chen Xiyun behind him said "hmm",

"I will make chicken soup at noon, and I will deliver it to you in the afternoon. Tan Yan must have told you, right?"

"Well," Chen Xiyun then reacted, "Ah, no."

"That was her temporary decision. Wherever you live, I have to complete the task, right? I will send it to your house as soon as possible. You still eat cold and greasy food when you are sick. You are worthy of it."

"Drink more chicken soup to warm yourself up and feel better." His tone was undeniable.

"Yeah, but I like to eat fried chicken legs." Chen Xiyun did not refuse, but she felt a little guilty after being lectured by Chen Chao, but is there anything wrong with liking it?

Walking to the condiment counter, Chen Xiyun stood on tiptoe and picked up a small packet of fried chicken powder. She thought that there were five chicken drumsticks and this packet was not enough, so she took another small packet.

Chen Chao walked up silently and picked up a large package of fried chicken noodles from a high place out of her reach. The price was obviously much more affordable than buying several smaller packages.

Chen Xiyun stopped talking. Looking at the big bag of fried chicken noodles that Chen Chao easily got, she obediently put back the small package she chose.

It was heartbreaking. The two of them didn't say a word, but their actions seemed to have said a thousand words. The most important thing was the moment when Chen Chao got it easily.

Even though there was no expression on his face, Chen Xiyun always felt as if "You can't do it" was written all over it.

Somewhat discouraged, she continued to follow Chen Chao until they reached the checkout counter, where they each paid their bills. Fortunately, there was no one there today, and the aunties at the checkout counter were all staring at the customers in the supermarket.

Chen Chao was carrying a big shopping bag bought for two cents from the supermarket, filled with vegetables.

Chen Xiyun was carrying her own handbag and put all the vegetables in it.

The two of them got off the elevator together,

"Okay, bye, I'll go back and make chicken soup quickly." Chen Chao waved his hand and walked towards his electric car, Lu Bai,

Originally, she wanted to kindly send Chen Chao home, but as soon as Chen Xiyun was about to speak, Chen Chao waved and walked away, running towards his own little electric donkey.

She smiled to herself, closed her mouth, took off her mask and walked to the parking lot below. The large LED advertising screen in the garage was showing a well-known singer and band who were about to perform at the Lizhou Grand Theater.

Chen Xiyun stared blankly at the short video of the singer on stage. Under the stage lights, he seemed to be the center of the world.

When will I find the courage to do this?

Driving the Audi out of the parking lot, driving slowly in the traffic on the small road, some of her favorite music was playing in the car.

It happened to be "Song of Miraculous Abilities" at this time. She held the steering wheel and hummed softly, "

I have seen heavy rain in the desert,

Have seen the ocean kiss a shark,

Watched the dusk chasing the dawn,

never seen you,

I know beauty ages,

There is life beyond life,

I know there are poems in the wind,

Don't know about you.

…………

I forgot that I was on an endangered island,

Forget that tears are nothing but ineffective medicine,

Forget the century-old silent slogan,

I can't forget you.

………”

Autumn is full of beauty, and there are neat rows of ginkgo trees along the Jinxing Road. Their golden leaves have fallen one after another, fluttering in the wind.

Slowly parking the car on the side of the road, Chen Xiyun opened the car window and let the autumn wind sweep away everything in the car.

She tightened her clothes and hat, folded her arms around her chest,

"It's so beautiful," she muttered dreamily, not knowing who she was talking to.

Going home? There's really no rush. No one will be waiting for her anyway. Take your time with meals and everything else. Let yourself walk slower and more relaxedly...

Chen Chao drove the Lubai suddenly and suddenly from the main road to the concrete road. The food on the pedal kept shaking, but there was nothing he could do.

It’s almost winter and prices are soaring. Just buying a meal to make a meal costs almost 100 yuan. I feel distressed and helpless66.

There was a squeaking sound from the keyhole outside the door. Tan Yan, who was sitting on the sofa, quickly put the semi-finished woven products into the cupboard on the tea table.

The door opened and Chen Chao walked in carrying a large plastic bag.

"Yanyan, I'm back. How are you? Are you feeling better about your cold?"

"Much better. Didn't you see that I did some housework?" Tan Yan pointed at the room. She was about to take the shopping bag from Chen Chao's hand.
