Chapter 441 Sugar Cake
It was obviously a very ordinary sentence, but Li Mingyu felt like crying when he heard it.
She looked at the pastry in Li Erlang's hand. It was the most common sugar cake and also the cheapest one. However, even this kind of cake was not available to people like them in the Li family's old house. Only those who were favored by Old Lady Zheng could eat it. Otherwise, even if it was the leftovers of Li Mei'e, they were not allowed to even look at it, otherwise they would be caught by Old Lady Zheng and scolded to death.
"Dad, eat more. If you like it, we can buy it often. This cake... is not expensive at all." Li Mingyu's voice was a little choked when he said this.
In the past, when the Li family's old house was still doing well, Li Dalang would not even look at these sugar cakes, let alone eat them. But Li Erlang thought they were the most precious things and was reluctant to eat some of them.
"It's only two cents a piece, Dad. We can afford it now." Li Mingyu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes while going to the kitchen to make oil tea noodles for Li Erlang, and said with a smile.
Li Erlang originally thought that such delicious food should be very expensive, but when he heard Li Mingyu say that a piece of sugar cake only cost two cents, he found it a little unbelievable.
"Only two cents?"
But why did my mother scold everyone at home just because of these two cents?
Li Mingyu nodded, "Yes, just two cents. This is the cheapest pastry. The others are more expensive. For example, these ones sent by Mingxia are expensive. The one with red dates and walnut kernels is about fifteen cents a piece. And the ones sent by my aunt today are not cheap either, about five, six, seven or eight cents a piece."
Actually, Li Erlang had no interest in other cakes. He seemed to only like sugar cakes. He ate three pieces and drank a large bowl of oil tea noodles before he stopped.
"Two cents a piece is not expensive. You can buy it often in the future and eat it when you are hungry. It is convenient." Li Erlang picked out a piece of cake and handed it to Li Mingyu, saying.
It was the red date and walnut cake, which Li Mingyu said was the most expensive one. Li Erlang did not eat it because he wanted to watch his daughter eat it.
"Dad, I'm not hungry. You eat it. Try this. It's delicious. I've eaten it at Sister Mingxia's house." Li Mingyu said to Li Erlang.
But no matter what Li Mingyu said, Li Erlang insisted on letting Li Mingyu eat the red date and walnut cake.
Finally, there was no other choice, so Li Mingyu took it, broke it in half, and gave each of them half. After finishing the cake, he calculated that it was almost time, so Li Mingyu counted the things for Li Mingxia's family again.
Over there, Hua Shi had just left Li Mingxia's house with Li Mingxi. When they left, they had bright smiles on their faces, and it was obvious that their wishes had come true.
Li Mingxia took a look at the eight things piled on the table and felt a little emotional.
"Our aunt-in-law really knows how to behave." Li Mingxia lowered her voice and muttered to Li Zhengde.
Li Zhengde naturally knew that Li Mingxia was not talking about the things on the table. He glanced at Zhang, who was holding a set of clothes with a smile on her face, and nodded in agreement.
"I used to think our aunt was not a simple person. Look at how mom was. She used to be so annoyed with her that her face turned ugly whenever she mentioned her aunt. Now look at her now."
Zhang was holding a sapphire blue dress in her hand. The fabric was silk and there were large peony flowers on it. It was obvious that Zhang really liked this dress.
"Mom, do you like peonies? Why didn't you tell me before? I thought you didn't like such big flowers." Li Mingxia saw Zhang looking at the dress in her hand over and over again, and moved closer with some jealousy.
Although this dress is pretty, she shouldn't like it so much, right? Could it be that Zhang likes peonies? I haven't heard of it before, how did Hua know about it?
"It's okay. This dress was embroidered by your aunt." Zhang said casually without raising her head.
Embroidered by hand? Not bought ready-made? Li Mingxia was stunned, but how did Zhang know?
"In the past, your aunt made a piece of clothing for your grandmother. We have all seen it. The embroidered flowers were so beautiful. We are clumsy and cannot embroider it. I didn't expect that your aunt would also make a piece of clothing for me, and embroidered so many flowers on it. It must have taken a lot of effort." Zhang didn't wait for Li Mingxia to ask and continued talking.
Li Mingxia and Li Zhengde looked at each other and smiled secretly.
No wonder she likes this dress so much. It turns out there is such a saying. It seems that even a virtuous woman like Zhang is not without any thoughts.
Zhang looked at them for a while and then put all the things away. She also put the dress into the closet and continued to wear the bright red one that Li Mingxia bought for her.
"Mom, why don't you wear it?" Seeing that Zhang liked the dress so much, Li Mingxia thought that Zhang would definitely wear it a few times.
Zhang shook her head. Seeing that Li Sanlang was not in the room, she leaned close to Li Mingxia's ear and said, "On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, your father should ask us to go there. It's okay if you don't go. I will definitely go with your father. I will wear this dress when the time comes."
Li Mingxia's eyes lit up after hearing Zhang's words, and he covered his mouth and smiled secretly.
Zhang is so cute like this!
Zhang did not hide her little thoughts in front of her own daughter. Seeing Li Mingxia laughing secretly, she glared at her in reproach.
"Hurry up and clean up, and let Mingyu and the others come over for dinner tonight." Zhang said to Li Mingxia.
Li Mingxia glanced at the door and said, "Mingyu and my second uncle should let us have dinner at their house today."
Zhang nodded thoughtfully, "I really can't say for sure. I have to go and pack Mingyu's lucky money."
Not only the New Year's money, Li Mingxia thought that Li Mingyu would probably send some gifts, so he prepared some things in advance as a return gift.
Just as Li Mingxia guessed, about half an hour later, Li Mingyu and Li Erlang arrived together.
Seeing Li Mingyu and Li Erlang carrying large and small bags of things, Zhang and Li Sanlang felt a little unhappy.
"You treat us as outsiders, that's what I mean. Why did you bring so many things here? Second brother, you make me, your younger brother, feel very uncomfortable." Li Sanlang said with a stern face.
Li Erlang naturally knew that his younger brother was worried about him spending money, so he put down all the things and explained, "Third brother, this is only once a year, and you can't be taken advantage of just because you miss me, right? This is a little gift from me as your elder brother, and it would be hard for me if you don't accept it."
