Tech overlords start with a baby

Chapter 127 Guoguo, why does grandma care so much about a dollar acridine

Candy's two little hands tightly grasped Mo Jingchun's sleeves. Mo Jingchun held Candy in his arms to comfort him for a long time, and then the little guy gradually recovered.

It was just that when it was time to eat, there was no appetite for one big and one small. The same food as usual, Mo Jingchun ate it in his mouth, but felt it was boring.

The candy that usually has to sit on the small bench to eat by himself is still unwilling to leave Mo Jingchun's arms tonight.

In the evening, Mo Jingchun's cry made the little guy feel scared. The little guy seemed to understand what it means to be afraid of losing.

No appetite, Mo Jingchun ate a small bowl of rice, put down his chopsticks, and did not continue to eat.

Obviously already hungry, but Mo Jingchun just couldn't eat.

Just then, my grandfather called.

"Hello? Xiaochun, have you eaten tonight?"

Mo Jingchun looked at the half bowl of rice left in front of him and said to his grandfather on the other end of the phone:
"Grandpa, Candy and I have had dinner just now."

"Grandpa, are you healthy?"

"Hey, it's still the same, it's not good or bad."

"Where's Candy? Why didn't you hear Candy talking?"

Mo Jingchun patted the candy that cocked his head, and said softly, "Guo'er, call Grandpa."

When Candy heard the words, she whispered to the phone, "Hello grandpa~"

"Okay, okay~ Did the candy miss Grandpa?"

Mo Jingchun whispered in Candy's ear: "I want to."

"think."

"Grandpa also wants candy."

After chatting for more than ten minutes, there was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone. After half a ring, Mo Jingchun and Candy's grandfather said, "I went to your house with your uncles and uncles this morning."

Hearing this, Mo Jingchun already knew in his heart why his grandfather and two uncles went to his house.

"Even though you're not at home, someone will be there for your mother's birthday today."

"A few of your uncles are not bad. The family who accompanied us to the back mountain also spent money for your mother."

"At noon, your uncle insisted on keeping us for dinner at his house. Originally, your uncle and I were about to leave, but we stayed for dinner when we saw that your uncle was angry."

Mo Jingchun said quickly, "It's alright, when I come back for the New Year, I'll invite a few uncles to dinner."

"Well, I want it."

"You and Candy pay more attention to your health outside. You don't have to worry about it at home. Your uncle visits your home once a month."

"Last time it rained heavily, and the ridge of your family was washed away by the heavy rain. Your uncle also helped you fix it."

After grandfather said this, Mo Jingchun silently wrote it down, and when he went back, he directly told Gongfu money, and uncle would definitely not want it.

However, my sister just happened to be admitted to university. No matter what university she was admitted to, whether she had a wedding or not, she would have to give her wedding money.

At that time, in addition to the gift money, Mo Jingchun plans to give his sister Zhou Yaling another laptop.

"Okay, grandpa won't talk too much with you. If you talk too much, your children will be annoying."

"Hang up, if you have anything, just call grandpa. Although grandpa is old, he can still resist the first resistance."

Mo Jingchun couldn't help but hold the candy in his arms tightly and whispered "um".

After hanging up the phone, Mo Jingchun didn't move the cell phone on the table for a long time, and Mo Jingchun didn't know what he was thinking at this time. In short, at this moment, Mo Jingchun felt that his mind was very messy.

In the evening, Mo Jingchun and Candy went to bed early.

Before going to bed, Mo Jingchun put another incense stick.

------

A few days later, Candy has returned to its former liveliness, but the little guy's reliance on Mo Jingchun has become a little more.

In the vegetable market, Candy held Mo Jingchun's fingers tightly and looked around. When he saw something he liked, the candy would act like a spoiled child and let Mo Jingchun buy it.

Looking at the same variety of vegetables, Mo Jingchun didn't know what to buy.

Looking at the old grandmother with white hair sitting at the entrance of the vegetable market, Mo Jingchun slowly walked over with the candy.

Mo Jingchun squatted down, turned over the ugly-looking cucumber, and asked the old grandmother, "Grandma, how did you sell this cucumber?"

Don't look at these ugly cucumbers, but Mo Jingchun, who grew up in the countryside, knew that these cucumbers should be grown by the grandmother herself, not the kind of ripening cucumbers in the greenhouse.

Compared with cucumbers grown in greenhouses, this kind of cucumbers naturally taste better.

"Eight cents a pound."

Looking at the open red convenience bag in the old grandma's hand, Mo Jingchun squatted on the ground and picked it up.

"That's all, grandma."

As soon as Mo Jingchun finished speaking, the old grandmother took out an old-fashioned steel scale from behind.

This kind of steelyard is not like Mo Jingchun blowing, many young people nowadays don't know how to read it at all.

"Young man, a total of three catties and seven taels, is it possible to charge you three yuan?"

Mo Jingchun didn't have one piece of change, and the minimum denomination in his pocket was still ten yuan.Of course, Mo Jingchun only had 20 yuan in cash in his pocket.

The old grandmother accepted ten yuan, and it took a long time to collect seven yuan from her pocket, including a dime of the national emblem that Mo Jingchun had not seen for a long time.

On the way back after buying the vegetables, the candy in his arms suddenly asked, "Guoguo~ Grandma asks why she cares about a dollar so much. Guoer's small money is a lot."

For a time, Candy really stopped Mo Jingchun.

Mo Jingchun naturally understands the truth, but how should he explain it to Little Candy?
After thinking for a long time, Mo Jingchun said to Candy after missing two traffic lights: "Guo'er, if you have ten strawberries, would you be willing to share it with other children?"

Candy twitched her fingers and said, "Of course, Guo'er is the cutest."

At this time, Mo Jingchun asked again with a smile, "That Guo'er only has one strawberry, is Guo'er willing to share the strawberry with other children?"

"Of course not. There is only one fruit."

"Yeah, to that grandma, a dollar is a strawberry."

What Mo Jingchun didn't say is that the truth is even more cruel.

For some people, a few dollars can buy two buns to satisfy their hunger. If you can't even buy one, you know one dollar, why they care so much.

Just like the news reported once, instant noodles can only be eaten once every year on birthdays, but some people say that instant noodles are not nutritious.

When your phone's power is 100%, do you care about dropping 1%, 2%?
When your phone's power is 10%, and there is no place to charge it, do you care if you lose 1% or 2% of the power?

This is the attitude towards electricity, not to mention the money to maintain basic life?

Why are there people who care about a few dollars?
You are not poor, you just don't know.

Mo Jingchun only knew that Mom and Dad had said about the poor days in the past, the bitterness of that era.But after Mo Jingchun was born, his parents never let Mo Jingchun lack clothes and food.
