Chapter 162: See if we have the same idea
After dinner, the snow fell even heavier. The three children went to Dabao's room early to sleep together. Xiao Baoer also put solar night lights for the three children.
After staying with the child until he fell asleep, she and Shen Zhensheng entered the space together. The main reason was that a batch of fruits and grains had ripened in the space, so they had to enter the space and harvest them with their minds, and then plant new ones.
"Wife, we have to wait until the road is open before we can deliver this batch to the town, and then ask Zhou Bao to supply a batch to the county black market."
Xiao Baoer looked at the warehouse full of supplies and said, "Well, we supply the black markets in the county and town as well as Xie Lan. This batch of supplies can also be used up. I guess the price of supplies will go up because of this heavy snow."
Shen Zhensheng knew that his wife must have her own ideas, but he didn't know if they were the same as his.
"Wife, what are you thinking? Do we have the same idea?"
"I want to give them the same price as before, but I have to tell them that I can't raise the price without permission. Even if it's not much higher than before the snow, this is to take money from the suffering people."
Shen Zhensheng smiled, knowing that his wife had the same idea as he did. People would indeed lack supplies because of the heavy snow, and there would be a shortage of supplies in the market, but making the common people rich just because of this, or even making some people unable to buy food, was not what they wanted to see.
"I thought so too. I discussed this with them when I went to town."
After the two took a bath, Shen Zhensheng carried out prenatal education as usual, and then massaged Xiao Baoer's legs and feet. She is now almost four months pregnant, and except for some inconvenience in movement, Xiao Baoer does not feel any obvious discomfort.
They both got up early in the morning, tidied up, and went out to Dabao's room to see if the three children had kicked off the quilts. When they opened the door, they saw that Dabao had already gotten up and dressed.
"Mom, Erbao kicked the quilt, so I covered him up. Let him continue sleeping."
Dabao was talking to Xiaobao. As soon as Dabao woke up, he saw Erbao and Sanbao kicking the quilt, so he got up and covered them tightly.
"Great! Let Daddy take you to wash your face and brush your teeth. It's snowing heavily outside. Put on the thick cotton boots Daddy bought for you."
The last time he went to the county for inspection with Shen Zhensheng, Shen Zhensheng took a fancy to the children's cotton boots and thought they were very nice, so he bought a pair for each child. They were made of leather on the outside and were very thick, perfect for wearing on snowy days.
Dabao followed Shen Zhensheng to get some water and wash up. Xiao Baoer closed the door of the room, let Erbao and Sanbao continue to sleep, and went to prepare breakfast.
There were only three of them eating today. For breakfast, they had kelp, shrimp and egg soup, and fried instant noodles. Fried noodles with instant noodles are Xiao Baoer's favorite, and each of them had a cup of hot milk.
After the three of them finished their meal, Shen Zhensheng heard the voices of Erbao and Sanbao, and it seemed that they had woken up.
After going into the house and dressing the two children, Xiao Baoer took them to wash up. She also prepared food for them. Erbao liked egg tarts and pizza, and Sanbao liked blueberry yam puree, so she prepared these for them, as well as hot milk.
After eating, it's time to use up all their energy. The three children and Shen Zhensheng were playing snowball fights in the yard. They accidentally fell on the snow. Xiao Baoer stood at the door and watched them play. She didn't stop them. She just let them have fun. It was so nice to release their nature.
After the snowball fight, they braved the snow and made a snowman in the yard. Erbao asked Xiaobao for a carrot and a black button. He rolled his eyes and ran back to the house to get Sanbao's red scarf and hat to put on the snowman.
As for why he didn't take Dabao's, it was because he didn't dare to, for fear that Dabao would call his name with a cold face.
He took his own because he couldn't bear to part with it, so it was just right for him to take Sanbao's. He thought Sanbao was young and silly, so he would be easy to fool. Besides, Sanbao knew how to act like a spoiled child, so his mother would definitely not be angry with him.
If Xiao Baoer knew that he thought Sanbao was silly, he would definitely laugh. Silly son, Sanbao is small, but he is the smartest and most thoughtful one. You are the simplest one in the family.
After making the snowman, he used a carrot as a nose, buttons as eyes, and made a mouth for the snowman. When Sanbao wasn't paying attention, he wrapped his scarf around the snowman and put on a hat.
You know what, it really looks good. Shen Zhensheng even took a camera to take a photo of the three children and the snowman.
Sanbao has already noticed that the snowman is using his scarf and hat. He calmly points at Erbao and says that he is bad. But he doesn't make a fuss. Anyway, his mother will knit it for him and he won't get cold.
The four of them played for the whole morning. Xiao Baoer knitted a sweater with wool while watching them play. She was happy even though she couldn't play herself.
Shen Zhensheng saw that it was almost time, so he let the three of them play by themselves and went into the house. "Wife, you must be hungry, what do you want to eat in the morning?"
"It's too cold today. Let's take the children to eat mutton hotpot in the morning. It's steaming hot and warm. You can play with the children. I'll go to the space to prepare it and serve it out in a while."
Shen Zhensheng asked her to sit down and rest, insisting on preparing it himself. He told the three children to look after their mother while he went to prepare lunch.
The three children were so addicted to the mutton at this meal that they ate until sweat appeared on their foreheads, but they couldn't stop eating.
While they were having dinner, someone knocked on the door. The family felt very strange. Who would come to knock on the door in the snow?
"Wife, you take care of the kids and eat. I'm going to open the door. It might be urgent."
Shen Zhensheng put down his chopsticks and went to open the door. Xiao Baoer continued to eat with the children. They did not go out because they were afraid that it was too slippery outside. The three children were enjoying their mutton and would not go out.
Shen Zhensheng's face changed when he saw the person coming. He had no intention of letting him in and said coldly, "What are you doing in my house?"
The person outside the door was Shen Laosi, who put his hands in his sleeves and shrunk his neck and said, "Third brother, my wife is pregnant and there is nothing to eat at home. I wanted to ask you what you gave to my third sister-in-law. Can you give some to my family?"
"Oh, you are so funny. Didn't the team give you any food? That's the ration that you need to last until next year. Now you say you have nothing to eat and come to my house for it. Will you come to my house again after you finish eating? Do I have to take care of your family for the rest of your life?"
Shen Zhensheng ignored him and of course wouldn't give him food. It wasn't that he was cruel to Shen Laosi, but if you gave food to a person like him once, he would rely on you to support him. Even his parents didn't care about him, so Shen Zhensheng wouldn't be so kind as to support him.
"Third brother, there are only coarse grains at home. My wife is complaining that she can't eat them. She wants to eat some meat and eggs. Please give me some."
Shen Zhensheng pushed him out of the door and said expressionlessly, "Get out. I won't even give you coarse grains, let alone meat and eggs. Your wife is pregnant and needs to eat, but my wife is pregnant with two babies, so she doesn't need to eat? I have three children to raise at home. Don't come to my house like a beggar in the future."
He ignored Shen Laosi who was outside the door and just closed the door and went into the house to eat. It was really cold that day. The snow would probably continue to fall for several days. He would have to sweep the snow again in the afternoon.
"Who's outside? Why don't you let people in?" Xiao Baoer asked casually while cooking mutton.
Shen Zhensheng didn't say anything in front of the child, and just sat down to eat. "No one, it's nothing serious, just asked a few questions, and he's gone."
