Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1430: Chapter 839: Shamelessness (2)

Seeing that Granny always looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated, Luo Ye reached out to her: "Granny, just say what you want to say."

The old lady chuckled awkwardly: "Actually, I don’t really have anything to say, it’s just..." She pointed to the various dishes on the table that hadn’t been served yet, "I feel like these things are indeed delicious, but they cost too much."

Nuonuo, Granny is maybe overstepping a bit, but Granny thinks of Xiao Feng as her grandson, and just wanted to nag a little. If it’s not pleasing to hear, Nuonuo, don’t get upset."

Ying Nuo nodded: "Granny, go ahead, I won’t get upset."

"Although Xiao Feng is the Deputy Mayor of the town, in Granny’s eyes, he’s still a kid. So, Granny just wants to help him by worrying a little.

To live this life, you need to budget carefully. You young folks have gotten used to spending freely, you might not notice now, but once you’re married and have kids, you’ll see how money isn’t as useful.

And when you grow old and don’t have any savings, life will be even harder. Granny ended up living such a hard life because she didn’t plan when she was young.

Granny hopes you all have a good life, so just nagging a little, whether right or wrong, don’t get upset. Especially Nuonuo, Granny really likes you."

Luo Feng smilingly explained to Ying Nuo: "Granny’s saying, if she didn’t like you, she wouldn’t be telling you these things."

The old lady nodded repeatedly: "Exactly."

Ying Nuo hummed, moving behind Luo Feng and pinching the flesh at the back of his neck: "What kind of life are you living here? Making Granny misunderstand you like this?"

Before he could answer, she turned and searched through the room, coming out with a pile of instant noodles: "Is this how you take care of yourself? Hmm?"

"Uh..." Seeing his sister staring at him discontentedly, Luo Feng quickly explained, "Usually, I eat at the canteen, only dinner at home, mostly with Granny. I really haven’t had many chances to eat these instant noodles."

Granny promptly chimed in: "Mm, these are what Xiao Feng and I eat together. Add an egg when cooking, it’s quite tasty."

Luo Feng looked at the old lady with black lines on his forehead; was she doing this on purpose? Nuonuo came out looking clearly angry, and he didn’t believe the old lady didn’t see it...

"Nuonuo, I won’t eat them in the future, I’ll cook them just for Xiao Feng."

Granny’s explanation immediately made Luo Feng understand, it turned out the old lady misunderstood, thinking Ying Nuo disliked that he bought expensive things...

How could he have forgotten, even though it’s the 21st century, for a poor town like Qin Mountain Town, most people feel instant noodles lack nutrition, yet in their eyes, it’s a delicacy for rewarding children...

"Brother..." This time, Luo Ye also furrowed his brow, "Have you allowed yourself to be assimilated to this extent? When your body fails, what will you do?

Having a healthy body is being responsible for yourself and your family." Luo Ye said, looking at Granny, "Mother-in-law, eating too much of this is bad for health, it can make you sick."

"Alright, I will pay attention in the future. Today is a joyful day, stop lecturing me..." Luo Feng smiled placatingly, "All you ladies, don’t get mad, alright?"

"Fine, we’ll let you go." Luo Ye glanced at the time, "It’s not early, everyone should rest early."

Upon hearing this, Granny happily grabbed Ying Nuo and Luo Ye, looking at Zhu Hongyu: "I’ve made the beds, it’s definitely warm in the quilts now."

Luo Ye nodded amusingly: "Okay, we’ll sleep here tonight."

"Hehe..." Granny’s eyes instantly narrowed with joy.

Earlier, Luo Ye and the group thought about squeezing into the town’s only inn, which was actually a household that cleared some rooms. When someone stayed, they’d start a fire on the kang, when empty, they’d leave it cold.

Given Qin Mountain Town’s economic situation, most who came to stay at the inn were long-distance travelers who were too tired to continue and needed a rest.

This allows one to imagine how simple the conditions were inside, and how extortionate the prices (of course, the extortion was judged against local economic standards; for outsiders, thirty per night was acceptable, better than sleeping on the street, right?).

Granny’s kang was warm, the quilts though not new, were washed clean. Getting in, you could smell a hint of fragrant soap.

Luo Ye and Zhu Hongyu had been busy for days without much sleep, lying in such a warm bed, they quickly began to breathe evenly.
