Chapter 108: Chapter 108 He is Boasting
In the evening, Helian Qiao and Gu Tingyun were standing on a stone bench, watching their grandmother cooking.
Chen Erbao was standing nearby, keeping a watchful eye on her, fearing his younger sister would be taken away, "Guibao, tomorrow, your older brother will take you to fly a kite."
Helian Qiao shook her head, with a childlike voice said: "No, it’s going to rain tomorrow."
The Dragon Clan has an instinctual sense of weather changes.
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiulian said to Zhao Mei who was chopping vegetables, "Eldest daughter-in-law, don’t hang the laundry in the yard after you’ve washed it tonight, leave it under the eaves."
Zhao Mei didn’t ask why, she simply nodded and agreed, always listening to her mother-in-law’s words!
Surprisingly, Chen Erbao also revised his earlier suggestion without doubting, "Then older brother will stay at home and play marbles with you."
Those few marbles were his most cherished treasures, he didn’t let other people play with them easily, he still mourned the loss of one of the marbles from before.
But Helian Qiao still shook her head: "I don’t like playing with marbles."
She couldn’t understand why her second brother liked those few glass marbles so much, after all, little princess, the wealthy dragon, could use the luminous pearls worth a thousand gold pieces as play marbles.
Now Chen Erbao became worried, did he have to play jump rope and kick shuttlecock with his younger sister?
As a young boy, he would never play the sort of games young girls played, even if it killed him!
At this moment, Gu Tingyun began to speak: "Guibao, I’ll bring some Legos tomorrow for us to play together."
Helian Qiao tilted her head, looking at him innocently: "What’s Legos?"
Gu Tingyun then explained: "Legos are many little pieces of wood and we can assemble these pieces into cars, houses, and tracks."
Chen Erbao instantly sprung up and pointed at him, rebuking loudly, "Guibao, don’t believe him, he’s bluffing! Houses are made of dirt, and cars aren’t made of wood!!"
But Helian Qiao was blinking her big eyes and said softly, "You can make houses and cars out of wood."
Among the ordinary people living in their South Sea region, houses and carriages were indeed made out of wood.
Gu Tingyun also seriously said: "I’m not bluffing, you’ll see when I bring the Legos tomorrow."
The Lego set he brought out was a birthday gift from his little aunt this year, his favorite one, so he had kept it unopened.
Seeing that his younger sister would rather believe this white-faced boy than her own older brother, Chen Erbao was devastated.
Oh wow, he was so upset!
Just at the moment he was beating his chest in torment, Jiang Manyun arrived at the Chen family on a brand new 28-style bike to pick up her son.
Zhou Zhaodi, who had been squatting in the courtyard washing vegetables, immediately went to greet her, her eyes sparkling as she asked, "Comrade Jiang, is this the bicycle you bought? It must have cost a lot of money, right?"
Her voice was loud, and everyone in the kitchen could hear what she was saying, so Chen Erbao shot out like a man possessed, "Where’s the bicycle?!!!"
Not only Chen Erbao, but even the three Chen brothers were transfixed by the impressive 28-style bike, their eyes full of envy. But their envy was not the same as that of Zhou Zhaodi and Li Chunhua.
The men’s admiration originated from their love for the bicycle itself, envious of Jiang Manyun for owning a bike they didn’t have.
The women were envious of her ability to afford a bicycle, which brought her social prestige and elegance.
Surrounded by the Chen family’s keen gaze, Jiang Manyun calmly said, "It didn’t cost too much, only three industrial ration coupons."
During this time, she had already gotten a grasp of the impoverished conditions of rural life, so she glossed over the exact figures, so as not to let the Chen Family feel uncomfortable.
However, Zhou Zhaodi was still astounded, "It requires three industrial ration coupons."
