Chapter 921 Let’s Pick Up Trash

"I feel like my arms have gotten thicker. I should have stopped unscrewing so many bottle caps."

Meijia walked forward while complaining, and Yifei walked behind her carrying a stepladder.

"It seems that yesterday's practice was not suitable for you. Let's do something easy today and change the light bulb."

Meijia said speechlessly: "Why don't you just ask other people in the apartment to help you change the light bulb?"

With so many men in the apartment, why would a weak woman like her have to do a job like changing a light bulb?
Yifei rolled her eyes at Meijia and said, "What's the difference between asking him to change and asking Ziqiao to change? If you want to make yourself better and not rely on others, you must bravely jump out of your comfort zone."

Yifei put the ladder away and raised her hand to signal Meijia to take the initiative.

Meijia hesitated for a moment and found an excuse to refuse: "If I fall, who will take care of Xiao Xiaobu?"

Yifei said lightly: "With me here, nothing will happen."

"Zi Qiao said the same thing, and then I got pregnant."

As soon as Mei Jia finished speaking, Xiang Yu, who was passing by the door, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hahaha."

Yifei rolled her eyes at Xiang Yu, Meijia waved her hand and continued: "Don't change the light bulb. It's okay if it's a little dim. We can get by with it."

“Be brave. With every step you take, you will become more independent and confident.”

Yifei tries to inspire Meijia's courage.

Xiang Yu watched Meijia step on the first step of the ladder, and then said, "How about we stop here today and go up one step tomorrow?"

Yifei couldn't stand it anymore and burst out, "Go up quickly!!!"

At Yifei's roar, Meijia quickly climbed to the top of the ladder.

Xiang Yu sighed, "With a tiger threatening us from behind, we have to move fast."

Meijia didn't care about Xiang Yu's teasing and said lightly: "It feels different after leaving my comfort zone. The higher I stand, the stronger the smell of formaldehyde is."

Yifei patted the ladder and said, "Focus on changing the light bulb."

"Oh~"

Mika unscrewed the light bulb easily.

"Hey~ It's really simple~"

Yifei took the broken light bulb handed to her by Meijia, took out a newly bought light bulb from her pocket and handed it to Meijia, taking the opportunity to instill her own ideas.

"You see, many things only look difficult, but in fact they are not that difficult to do."

Before she finished her words, Mijia was about to screw in a new light bulb when she suddenly let out a strange cry.

"Yo yo yo~"

Xiang Yu asked blankly: "Chequer?"

Yifei asked nervously, "What's wrong with you?"

Meijia said anxiously: "It's over, it's over, my legs are numb. I feel like I got an electric shock, help me quickly."

Yifei glanced at the switch and said speechlessly, "How is that possible? The switch is turned off."

"I feel more and more numb, this feeling seems to be."

Meijia stood on the ladder, fished out her cell phone from her pants and said, "My cell phone is ringing. I'll answer Ziqiao's call first."

As she said that, Meijia came down from the ladder, put the light bulb in Yifei's hand, patted Yifei on the shoulder, and went out to answer the phone.

3604.

"From now on, we have to reduce spending in all aspects. First, electricity consumption. There is a discount on electricity prices after 10 p.m., so try to turn off all household appliances before 10 p.m., and use them intermittently after 10 p.m. in a planned manner."

When they heard that electricity could only be used after 10 o'clock, the three people sitting on the sofa panicked.

With Dali's character, in order to pursue the truth, he would definitely choose to turn off the power. For example, now there is no electricity in the apartment.

"Uh, no problem. A little darker is more romantic."

Zhao Haitang gritted his teeth and nodded.

After all, it was my own fault, and I don’t watch TV. Although it is inconvenient to use electricity at 10 o’clock, I endured it for the sake of being a couple with Dali.

Dali continued, "Then there is water use. You must apply to me in advance for any water use, including but not limited to taking a bath, washing clothes, brushing teeth, washing face, washing hair, and flushing the toilet."

“I have to apply for a permit to flush the toilet!?”

Dali raised four white jade fingers and said, "The goal is to control it to 4 times a day."

Hu Qiang was speechless and said, "Doesn't that mean everyone can only do it once a day?"

Curry Sauce's expression froze. This is definitely not enough!
Dali nodded and smiled, "It is indeed a little less if calculated in normal state, but in low power mode, you will eat less and go to the toilet less often, so it should be enough."

Curry Sauce yelled, "Even eating needs to be controlled!???"

If she controls her eating, that would be the end of her life!

"Food is the most important thing. We will only eat two meals a day for the next five days!"

As he spoke, Dali raised two fingers.

"What should I do if I'm hungry?"

Curry almost cried.

"Easy to handle."

Dali smiled confidently, walked to the sofa, and said, "Never stand if you can sit, never sit if you can lie down. During this special period, I hope everyone will grit their teeth and be more understanding."

"Ah~"

The three of them sighed and chose to lie down.

When Zhang Wei came back, he saw four people slumped on the sofa.

Hu Qiang's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Zhang Wei.

"mom……"

Hu Qiang finished yelling awkwardly, "How about, let my grandfather Zhang Wei be resurrected? Everyone knows how frugal he is. Not to mention 100 yuan for 5 days, even 100 yuan for a month, I guess he can spend it until the end of the month."

Zhang Wei was about to speak, but now he stood in front of Zhao Haitang with his hands behind his back.

Zhao Haitang hesitated for a moment and said, "Do you really have a solution?"

Curry Sauce echoed, “Grandpa, it’s up to you.”

"Oh, look how obedient my grandson is. Dali, give him some pocket money."

Don't mention how proud and excited he is now.

Explained the cause and effect.

Zhao Haitang complained: "I haven't agreed yet! Lawyer Zhang, do you have a solution? One hundred dollars to live for five days? Four people!"

As he spoke, Zhao Haitang stretched out four fingers.

Zhang Wei said casually: "Go pick up trash. Look through the trash cans more often. Pick up water bottles and paper cartons on the roadside. That will give you money for food. A man should earn money to support his family!"

Zhao Haitang's face turned pale with anger. He was a man who was going to be a great writer in the future, and Zhang Wei actually asked him to pick up waste. This was simply an insult. He looked at Dali for help.

Dali did not think there was a problem, but agreed with Zhang Wei's idea: "I had planned to do morning exercises for the next week, but I decided to cancel the morning exercises and replace them with collecting waste. This will reduce the pressure of life in our family and help cultivate the good virtue of thriftiness from a young age."

“I want to pick it up too?”

Curry Sauce was a little confused.

Zhang Wei was already interested: "Granddaughter, grandpa will take you to pick up scraps. I had a nickname back then, the Junk King!"

Curry sauce wanted to strangle Zhang Wei to death. For the sake of her own happy life, she had to find a way: "But... Dad just said that daughters should be raised in wealth and sons should be raised in poverty. I am a daughter, why should I pick up waste and sell it for money?"

The question that Curry Sauce suddenly raised seemed to make some sense.

Curry Sauce kept burning brain cells to find ways to avoid picking up waste.

"Dad, I am a girl. As a parent, can you bear to see a girl like me walking around the streets picking up waste?"

Zhao Haitang couldn't bear it anymore.

Dali also frowned after hearing this: "This is indeed a problem, husband, what do you think?"

Zhao Haitang had never intended to let Curry Sauce pick up waste. "I've also said that my daughter should be raised in luxury, so of course I can't let Curry Sauce pick up waste to earn pocket money. So I decided that Hu Qiang and I should go pick up trash..."

Hu Qiang was extremely unbalanced. Why did Curry Sauce have a large amount of pocket money while he had to pick up waste to make money himself?

Hu Qiang: "I disagree. This does not conform to the experimental plan."

Zhao Haitang: "I don't agree either. It's absolutely impossible for me to pick up trash."

In the end, due to the opposition of Hu Qiang and Zhao Haitang, Zhang Wei's status as a grandfather was revoked again.

……

Dali thought about it and nodded, "If you don't want to go out and pick up trash, you have to follow my ideas."
