As the saying goes, fish tastes best when steamed.
To make steamed fish, the fish had to be fresh. The fish had to be cut so that it could mature quickly. Then, the fish had to be steamed until it was no longer raw. Then, it was mixed with soup, Shaoxing wine, chopped green onions, ginger, and salt, and poured over the fish …
It was a little cruel.
But it smelled good.
Jiang He learned to eat first with a camera. Before sitting down, she took a photo and sent it to her friend, Gong Ping.
In Xu Qing's eyes, this behavior gave him a sense of accomplishment as if he had a daughter growing up. Although it was not a good habit to take a photo of the food that was about to be eaten, she was Jiang He.
However, two seconds later, Xu Qing realized that Jiang He's reason for taking a photo was different from taking a photo of the food. This fish was the result of her and her friend's hard work. Now that it was steamed, it was normal to show it to her.
He opened his WeChat Moments and refreshed it. There was no photo from Jiang He, which confirmed his guess.
"Send me one too," Xu Qing said.
"Oh, okay."
Although she did not know why she did not take the photo herself, Jiang He still sent one to Xu Qing. Xu Qing immediately sent it to the family group.
He fished it himself. Awesome. jpg
"Didn't he run over and take away two of our pomelos? When did he fish? " Zhou Suzhi had already finished eating and was doing some after-dinner activities. She planned to share the articles of the two experts to the group to help the father and son. Then, she saw the steamed fish that Xu Qing had sent. It looked good.
Xu Wenbin picked his teeth and looked sideways. He could not help but snort. "He is not showing off his fishing. He is showing off the dishes on the table. Look at how smug he is."
Even if he could not see Xu Qing's face, he could guess that his nose was in the air. He wanted to show off everything …
"You should buy a fish in the afternoon. We haven't had fish in a long time."
"It's not the New Year. Why do you have to go through so much trouble?"
"…"
Well, he must have lost the game of mahjong this morning.
Xu Wenbin looked at his phone and shook his head. He could only eat it tomorrow.
On the other side, Xu Qing was happily eating his fish … The reason why he came back before lunch was because he heard from Xu Wenbin that Zhou Suzhi went to play cards. Just in case she lost money and cooked noodles for lunch, he thought of a way to retreat.
Even a master of risk avoidance could save him a lot of nagging.
"At this rate, we'll be able to buy our own house next year or the year after." Xu Qing calculated the daily expenses of the two of them and felt that he didn't even know how to spend money.
The majority of their daily expenses were actually Jiang He's clothes and their meals.
Perhaps Jiang He had also calculated the living expenses of two people, so he often bought duck, goose, pork ribs, and fruits to improve their meals. But overall, it was still quite little.
Being together with Jiang He, who was super easily satisfied, saved him a lot of money and saved him from feeling guilty.
There was no need to commute, no need to maintain a car, and entertainment … playing with heroines was the best entertainment. Therefore, the big expenditure of a normal person disappeared. Besides, the two of them didn't get sick when they practiced martial arts —
Maybe only having a child could balance their income and expenses?
Xu Qing's brain twitched, and this idea suddenly came to him.
Everything about Jiang He seemed to be "pretty good", but these little things accumulated bit by bit and affected the result too much.
Butterfly effect …
"Our own house?" Jiang He was still thinking about his words. Our own …
House!
"Yes, now this is my mom's. If they don't give it to us, it won't be ours. Living with them is always suffocating. If we have our own house, we can do whatever we want …" Xu Qing pointed to the back with chopsticks, "That bookshelf, we can make it into the wall, so it won't take up much space. And this wall and ceiling, we can make it grayish-white, simple and grand."
As for cars, Xu Qing wasn't very enthusiastic. He rarely went far, and he didn't have to commute to work. He usually wandered around Jiangcheng. Although Jiangcheng was a small city, the living standards of the people had improved. Almost every family had a car, and the roads were always jammed …
After every family had a car, it was more convenient not to drive. Not only was there the problem of traffic jams, but parking was also troublesome.
At most, they wouldn't catch a cold when they went out in winter, and occasionally there would be urgent things in the future … Considering these points, they still had to buy a car. But at this stage, it wasn't that urgent for the two of them, and the priority wasn't higher than the house.
"Buying a house … is it ours?" Jiang He asked foolishly.
"Why don't we buy it for others?" Xu Qing looked at her as if he was looking at a fool. This heroine was still not very smart.
"House …"
Jiang He put the chopsticks in her mouth and chewed. She looked up at the roof and said, "It's very expensive here, right?"
"It's not as cheap as your own house, but it's not too expensive for other cities, and it's not expensive for where we live."
Xu Qing didn't even need to think about it to have a plan. Now they were living in the school district. At the same price, they could buy a house that was much bigger in other places. If it was in a more remote location, it was possible to buy a house that was one-third bigger. Then, when it was time to go to school, they would let their children come here to study.
Wow, even the children's schooling was considered.
Specifically, it depended on whether Jiang He liked peace and quiet or liveliness and convenience — probably the former. This silly girl always wanted to farm near the farmland in the north of the city.
"Mine and yours?" Jiang He blinked her eyes.
"Nonsense, do you think it's yours?"
"I …"
Jiang He didn't have any problems for the time being.
But she was still thinking about something with the chopsticks.
She had been studying here. Her original plan was to completely become a modern person like Xu Qing and Gong Ping, then find a way to do the live broadcast, start her business circle of cooking, eating and selling food, and then …
Her plan to integrate into the modern world had not been completed, and she was still studying. Suddenly, she was going to have a house in the modern world?
And a house with Xu Qing?
… Although she didn't want a house as much as having her own piece of land, because with land, she could find a way to build a simple house, but —
"That's not good, is it?" Jiang He lowered her eyelids and whispered.
"What's not good?"
"You buy a house, and when I get married, it's our …"
"If we break up, you will beat me to death. What's the difference between getting married or not?"
Xu Qing snorted, and then was amused by Jiang He's look. "If it weren't for you, I would only be able to buy a toilet. Where would I get a house?
— — I'm just telling you about this plan now. If you really want to buy a house, it will be next year at the earliest. It depends on what kind of house it is. If it's a two-bedroom 89 square meter house, it will be about the same next year. If it's more than 100 square meters, you have to work harder. "
89 square meters, just enough for two people to live in, and it would be enough for children in the future. A family of three, plus a study room. If they had two children, it would be a little crowded to renovate the study room, but it could also …
Wait, I haven't even touched the big bear, how can I think about having a few children?
Xu Qing scratched his head and quickly stopped thinking.
Young man, you're getting ahead of yourself.
