After giving Lan Jiajia and Yin Xiamo a look, I took out my cell phone and pressed the answer button.

"Nuo'er? Ye Zi said she has arrived at Xingxing Garden Community. How can we get in? She said there is a primary school and a large vegetable garden right here. Are you sure it is here?"

There was an echo when Jiang Wei spoke, as if he was in an empty house at the moment.

"Ah? Ye Zi?"

I was a little confused: "What about you? Aren't you coming?"

"No, no, I'm moving furniture to my new home, and your and Xia Mo's family are all girls, so it's embarrassing for a grown man like me to go there."

Jiang Wei said in a very generous tone: "I'll give Ye Zi your phone number, you tell her."

"Ok."

After waiting there for a few seconds, my phone rang again, this time it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, I'm Ye Zi, Jiang Wei's girlfriend."

After pressing the answer button, the phone rang with the voice of Jiang Wei's girlfriend whom he had heard at the entrance of the coffee shop before: "I only found one school according to the markings on the map. It says Xingguang Primary School at the school gate... Is it here?"

"It's here, but the main entrance of this community is abandoned. If you go there, you need to go through the vegetable garden."

I covered the recording device on my phone and said, "Turn your back to the east and look straight ahead, to the left of the school. There is a path leading into the vegetable garden. Then walk southwest. There are several rows of residential buildings. The tallest one has eight floors. It's very obvious."

"Oh……"

Ye Zi over there seemed to look for the direction according to what I said: "I see, that's Xingxing Garden Community?"

"Yes, we are almost at the community now. When you come out of the vegetable garden, there is a small pavilion at the exit. Wait near there and we will be there soon."

"Got it. Which line?"

"what?"

"Sorry, sorry, I said the wrong thing. I've been playing games with Brother Jiang Wei these past two days. I often say I'm going somewhere, but when I don't see anyone, I need to change lanes. It's a conditioned reflex. I'll go over now."

"Yeah, be safe."

Putting down the phone, I said to Lan Jiajia beside me: "The people are ready, but only his girlfriend is coming. There will be five people in our family having dinner together tonight, all girls."

Lan Jiajia seemed to be thinking: "Five people, right? Then I'll buy more tonight."

I took out my phone and said, "Let me transfer the money to you."

"Go! Go! Go."

Lan Jiajia pushed my phone back at me. "Don't I know what your financial situation is? Elodie said that you, as an author, were only a handful of rice away from starving to death last month. If you have money, just save it. Don't calculate it with me."

"..."

We returned to Xingxing Garden Community together and walked along the path to the large vegetable garden at the back. Under the small pavilion at the entrance of the vegetable garden, I saw Jiang Wei’s girlfriend Ye Zi.

"Hello!"

Seeing me, Ye Zi greeted me naturally. Today, she was wearing a very decent summer girl's long skirt and a pair of sandals. She smiled sweetly and said, "Sorry, this place is too remote. It took me a while to find the way."

"It's okay, we just arrived too."

I took the initiative to greet him: "Congratulations on your wedding."

"Thank you."

Ye Zi, who was carrying a large backpack on her back and a large bag in her hands, smiled happily: "You too, Xia Mo, you announced to the world that you would marry Nuo'er. When will you two prepare for... the wedding?"

As she spoke, she turned to Lan Jiajia beside her: "Yin Xiamo, Yin Nuoer, and the new maid in the coffee shop, Lan Jiajia... is her name Lan Jiajia?"

"Yes, hello, hello."

Lan Jiajia smiled and said, "The others can go upstairs and rest for a while. I'll go buy some groceries."

"Don't bother with that. Just be casual."

"Yes, yes. Even if you don't come, today is a rare day for the four of us to gather together in our house. We will also cook a lot of delicious food."

"So, am I lucky enough to have come at the right time?"

"Of course it counts! Is there anything you like to eat? I can make anything."

"Like? I'm very casual and not picky about food. How about you take a look at the specialties in Kamihama City? I...I just came here and I'm not used to it yet."

"learn!"

After Lan Jiajia left, I took Jiang Wei’s girlfriend into the elevator and went upstairs.

"You didn't really bring that super high-end console... console with you, did you?"

Looking at the large backpack on Ye Zi's back and the handbag in her hand, I felt a little embarrassed: "It would be better if it was simpler. I really don't need such a high configuration... Is it heavy? How about I help you carry it?"

"It's not heavy. It's just the weight of a computer. If I can't even lift this little weight, how can I be considered Brother Jiang Wei's little fangirl?"

Ye Zi smiled happily: "It's better if you don't need such a high configuration. Now max it out. You can use this computer for four or five years without any problem. You don't need to replace it."

"But……"

I smiled bitterly: "I feel that the computer at home is pretty good. At least it can be turned on and off without any problems, and typing is also very smooth."

"This is the task that Brother Jiang Wei gave me. I dare not go back if I don't complete it."

Ye Zi was very resolute: "Brother Jiang Wei said that we are clearing out our inventory and opening a new store to boost our luck. The fortune teller has calculated that the first order must be given to a noble person."

"Then I can only pay in installments."

As I spoke, I took out my phone and dialed Elodie's number.

"Sister Elodie, my friend's girlfriend is going to have dinner with us tonight. You're not in the living room, right?"

After this period of adaptation, Elodi's daily routine is generally to come back from handing over her shift with us around eight in the morning, take a shower, have breakfast, go to bed around ten o'clock, sleep for eight hours until six in the evening, then get up and play with her phone for a while, check to see if Lan Jiajia or I have cooked anything in the room, if not, call outside, then play with her phone for a while, and return to the rental house after eight o'clock.

Although Elodie is usually asleep around 4 or 5 p.m., I called her in advance just in case she was wandering around the house in her pajamas and white stockings as usual, which would be awkward if there were guests at home.

"No...I...ah...I just woke up."

Elodie on the other end of the phone yawned violently: "What? You want to say that some friends are coming to your house later? I remember you said that two days ago."

"That's fine. My friend is already here. Her name is Ye Zi."

"Oh."

Elodie was still confused: "When will you and Yin Xiamo get married?"

Why is it that when everyone hears the word “marriage” their first reaction is to urge Xiaomo and I to get married? Asshole!

"I'm getting ready. I'm getting ready."

In response, I had no choice but to say, "So hurry up and get ready to get up. Lan Jiajia will be back from buying groceries soon."

As he finished speaking, the elevator reached the top floor and the door opened with a ding dong sound.

"Sit anywhere."

I took a pair of slippers for the guests from the shoe rack in the entrance hall and gestured to Ye Zi about the house: "I haven't cooked yet. There are green beans and kelp in the refrigerator. Would you like some?"

"Thank you."

Ye Zi nodded, changed into slippers, put the large backpack behind her and the large bag in her hands on the ground, and her eyes were quickly attracted by the various flowers in the living room: "So beautiful! Did you plant these?"

"They were all planted by Xiaomo."

I went to the kitchen, took a small bowl, then opened the refrigerator, took out some mung beans and kelp, and handed them to Ye Zi.

"Thank you."

Ye Zi seemed to be the kind of girl next door who was very outgoing and not at all socially anxious or introverted. She took the bowl naturally and asked, "Mung bean porridge?"

“Mung bean and kelp.”

"Can green beans be cooked with kelp? Salty?"

"No, it's a dessert. It's made from kelp soaked in water. It's not salty at all, and I added some brown sugar."

I gestured to Ye Zi: "Try it?"

The other party immediately scooped a mouthful with a spoon and put it in his mouth, revealing a surprised expression: "The taste is so special! It is completely different from the mung bean porridge we have over there!"

I smiled and said, "It would taste better with some crushed ice, but we just moved here not long ago and haven't bought any containers to make ice cubes."

"Well……"

It seemed that she really liked this dessert. Ye Zi raised the bowl to her mouth and drank it quickly: "Where is the computer room here?"

Somewhat surprised that this girl was so obsessed with the computer, I took the bowl and put it back in the kitchen: "It's in Xiaomo and I's room."

I took Ye Zi to Xiaomo's room first and pointed to the computer on the desk: "This is Xiaomo's. My computer is next door."

"It looks like you need two computers?"

"No no no."

Yin Xiamo waved her hands repeatedly: "I don't know much about computers. I don't use them very often. Only Nuoer uses them to write novels and watch anime."

Actually, there are some.

I thought quietly in my heart.

Yin Xiamo's painting skills are superb. If we buy her a tablet and connect it to a computer, it will definitely open the door to a new world.

"Let me see……"

After taking a quick look at the computer in Yin Xiamo's room, Ye Zi squatted down skillfully, found the power button, and pressed it.

"The screen is... a no-name brand, 24 inches... hm."

The computer took a while to enter the system. Ye Zi picked up the mouse and opened the relevant parameters without knowing where to click.

"60, 1440 screen, DDR3 memory, 8G, processor... 9th generation U, integrated graphics... why is there no solid state drive, and the system disk is placed in a mechanical drive?"

As if she had realized something, the girl bent down and hid behind the computer case. After a while, she stood up and asked, "How much did you spend on this computer? Bring the screen with you."

"Uh……"

Yin Xiamo was a little embarrassed: "I... can't remember clearly, about 4,000 or 5,000 yuan."

"Did you buy it from an acquaintance?"

"I bought it from... an acquaintance of an acquaintance."

"No wonder."

Ye Zi sighed: "That acquaintance... you should cut off the relationship as soon as possible. This is too deceptive. It's not just a matter of making a few thousand dollars. He is tantamount to robbery."

Here, look.

I gave Yin Xiamo a "you stupid loli" expression.

"look at yours."

Ye Zi, who had just crawled out from the table, patted the dust off his head. His sharp tone made even the hair on my head tremble.

"My intuition tells me that your computer has probably been ripped off for a lot of money."

"..."

"If your computer were brand new now, it would cost around 3000 yuan. However, considering that some of its accessories have been discontinued, it's hard to estimate the price. Even if you add a monitor, it will definitely not be more than yuan."

Coming to my room, after doing a simple evaluation of the old computer that had "served" me for several years, Ye Zi stood up and asked: "Sister Nuoer, how much did you pay for it?"

"Uh……"

At this moment, I instantly felt Yin Xiamo's embarrassment: "Um... can you not say it?"

At best, I know only a little more about computers than a "newbie". I can only roughly estimate the price of a machine by looking at the models of the CPU and graphics card. The best I know compared to girls is that when moving, I can unplug the wires behind the computer case myself and then reconnect them at the new place. The rest may only be some small tips such as checking whether the memory, graphics card and hard disk are loose, causing computer failure.

Like the computer in Yin Xiamo's room, I always thought the monitor was 21 inches, but I didn't expect Ye Zi to come over and see it was 24 inches at a glance. I felt that it took Xiaomo's computer about seconds to boot up after cleaning up the garbage, which was quite fast. The hard drive should have been a solid state drive, but I didn't expect it to be a mechanical hard drive.

These cognitions are enough to prove that there is a huge gap between us and Ye Zi.

To use Jiang Wei's words - girls who know computers nowadays are even rarer than the blacksmith in the game who can successfully enhance equipment 12 times in a row.

I asked Yin Xiamo about her computer before, and the host computer cost 24 yuan. Now she said it cost more than or yuan, which means the small -inch monitor cost more than yuan. In this regard, Ye Zi's comment was "cut off ties with that acquaintance quickly."
