Ann and Lady Su did observe Gu Chunzhu in secret for several days, but their “hidden” work was not good either, and Wang Kun eventually reported to Gu Chunzhu's ears.

Gu Chunzhu also did adjust his attitude, and let Wang Kun ignore it, leaving Ann and Lady Su to follow him like burglars for a few days.

These days have been very calm and quiet, and there is something wrong with the big, elegant business. It is too difficult to purchase the ingredients needed every day, and the price has risen. If you continue to sell them at the same price, you will lose money.

Madam Miao also figured out a few small ways to alleviate a moment of hardship, but she could not solve the problem in the long term. She also knew about the locust plague in the south, so speculated that the price of food might continue to climb and reported to Gu Chunzhu as soon as possible.

After listening to Madam Miao's various descriptions, Gu Chunzhu's face did not change slightly. She had already guessed this day. So she quickly wrote down a few key measures she had already thought of, gave them to Miao, and praised, “Miao, you have managed the vulgar and elegant well. I was guessing that you would have come to me a long time ago, but I didn't expect you to find a way to deal with it. ”

Madam Miao turned out to be on paper. There was pride in her heart and frustration that didn't solve the problem once and for all. “Madame is ridiculous. The little trick didn't last for a few days. She was also too smart to be smart. ”

“Actually, you're really great. We solve things quite differently. You're trying to solve the ingredients problem, which is very difficult right now, and you can delay it by three or two days, which is really amazing.” Gu Chunzhu was not stingy with his words of beauty. He threw them at Madam Miao one wave after another.

Madam Miao was so embarrassed that she hurriedly lowered her head to look at the note and did not take care of Chun Bamboo's stubbornness.

As Gu Chunzhu said, she and Mrs Miao thought completely differently about how to solve the problem. The way to look at Chunzhu is to cut the share, directly to the limit, and the cheap part is completely erased.

Madam Miao looked at Gu Chunzhu with some surprise. "Madam, is this a transformation? Completely expensive but sophisticated route? ”

Gu Chunzhu listened and touched his chin. If he nodded thoughtfully, "You can't do this. This matter will be discussed after the crisis. The goal now is to reduce waste, food may not be enough for a long time to come, and we must be economical. ”

Madam Miao fully understood Gu Chunzhu's meaning and deeply sighed at Chunzhu's great admiration. “Madam is so kind, you want to give her more possibilities to survive, right? ”

“I'm not as noble as you said, but now that the rich make better money, why should I have to make money from the poor? Besides, I don't live for the poor, I live for the farmers. All right, you better get back to your vulgarity and take care of this.” Gu Chunzhu said his intention very frankly, and in order not to be boasted by Madam Miao to send customers directly.

Mrs Miao was not angry, besides, she was also anxious to have a big, vulgar situation, and left directly. But when she walked to the door, she hit Wang Kun. After meeting each other, they rushed on to their own business without saying anything.

Wang Kun quickly walked into the study and respectfully handed a letter to Gu Chunzhu, "Madam, Master Xiaocheng sent a lot of things, and asked the next person to forward a letter to you. ”

Gu Chunzhu took the letter curiously, opened it and looked at it at first sight.

The letter revealed Xiaocheng's guilt, and the letter also wrote frankly, "Because my son, he bothered Dad to go away, and at such a tense juncture. My son is so ashamed to meet his mother, he can only use a little western object that his son sweeps today to express his feelings and hope that his mother will like it. ”

“Little Cheng really cares so much about his parents.” Gu Chunzhu spoke to himself in a heartfelt manner. Then he collected the letter and began to write back to Xiaocheng.

Gu Chunzhu expressed his attitude in the letter, saying that let Xiaocheng not take responsibility for himself. Su Wangqin invited himself to go this time, not only for him, but also for the sake of the heavens and the new year for himself.

After writing, Gu Chunzhu put the envelope in order. Let Wang Kun take her to see Xiaocheng bring the hopeful things. At the same time, he also delivered the letter to Wang Kun and asked him to send someone to Xiaocheng.

Xiaocheng sent a little too much stuff, so Wang Kun stacked it directly in the room near the flower hall. Gu Chunzhu actually discovered familiar things such as telescopes, kaleidoscopes, bicycles, Western oil paintings, etc.

Gu Chunzhu is not very interested in binoculars and kaleidoscopes, but rather has some amazing bikes in his current style. The current suicide car is still the one with the bigger front wheels and the smaller rear wheels. The two wheels are connected by an iron frame, the foot pedal is on the front wheel, the seat is pressed on the rear wheel, and the chain is temporarily unnecessary.

“Counselor Wang, could you please push your bike outside?“ Gu Chunzhu thought, the only place to test ride this bike is the hallway that connects all over the house, because only the hallway has a long flat area.

Wang Kun looked at a lot of things in the house and asked embarrassingly, "Madam, what is a bicycle? “

Gu Chunzhu suddenly saw the bike a little excited, she forgot Wang Kun and couldn't recognize this pair of Western things. She hurried to show Wang Kun the bike. Wang Kun also hurried to carry the bike outside the house.

In the corridor, Gu Chunzhu got directly on the test drive and found the car difficult to ride and very clumsy. Probably because of direct foot rotation on the front wheel, and because the current process is not working, the body is overweight.

However, after just taking a few steps, Gu Chunzhu gave up. She thought she would have a new way of getting around in the future.

After giving up his bike, Gu Chunzhu went back to look at the scrolls and saw a picture of the Virgin Mary. She took out the painting with surprise, admired it and put it back together. She said to Wang Kun, "You'll have to send someone to Peony to take the painting, and tell her it's called the Virgin Mary. ”

After that, there was nothing in the pile of Western things that could interest Gu Chunzhu. Gu Chunzhu was going to leave the telescope for Su Wanqin, and then gave the twins the kaleidoscope or something, and two mirrors for Lady Su and Ann.

That's it, another day went by.

The next day, Gu Chunzhu received another letter from Xiaocheng, who wrote, "Thank you for the comfort of the mother, but the son still feels guilty, but there is no other way for the son, so I will come back later to accompany the mother for a day. ”
