Chapter 14 Preparing for Housewarming Gifts
Let go of his wife, the two of them helped up the falling mop and began to worry as they watched the cake.
This birthday cake with transparent plastic shell shouldn't have been smashed so easily by the mop handle.
It’s just that Yang Yang was blamed for stepping on the mop handle in order to support his wife.
It can be said that both of them cannot escape the responsibility of being broken.
However, in Yang Yang's heart, his wife's responsibility is his responsibility.
"You go in first, I'll find a way to do the cake." Yang Yang handed the bag of detergents on the floor to Xu Yan, picked up the cake himself, and planned to go into the house before talking.
But in Xu Yan's mind, if she hadn't knocked down the mop herself, she wouldn't have discovered such a thing.
"I'll find a way, it's all my fault. Now I'll order a cake, maybe it's still time."
"So you know where this cake is made? Or do you want me to clean the whole house by myself?" Yang Yang went into the house and put the cake on the coffee table in the living room, looking at Xu Yan.
"I'll go mop the floor now." Xu Yan, who couldn't answer, became weakened suddenly and could only use the mop to mop the floor with grievance.
When she came to this community, she looked dark and no one knew each other. The only person she had contacted in the community was Mr. Wang. Yang Yang was added to the WeChat group. She couldn't even contact her, so she could only follow Yang Yang's arrangements.
Could it be that Yang Yang did it on purpose?
Xu Yan, who was packing up toiletries on the floor, suddenly woke up and seemed to be trapped in her husband.
Seeing that Yang Yang was about to go out, she immediately reached out and grabbed him.
"Are you always tricking me?" Xu Yan said with a serious expression at Yang Yang.
Yang Yang was stunned for a moment, and soon understood what his wife meant, and nodded calmly.
"Well, I'm messing with you, and I'm also planning to mess with you for the rest of my life, because you're my wife."
Without giving Xu Yan a chance to cushion her brain, Yang Yang kissed her in the face after saying that.
Then he walked away from her outstretched hand and continued to walk outside.
Before leaving, I turned around in the corridor and told her:
"Don't rush to mop the floor. First, lift up all the dustproof cloth on the furniture, put it in the washing machine to wash it, and then wait for me to come back soon."
When Yang Yang had already entered the elevator, Xu Yan had just reminisced about it from his previous episode.
Shouldn’t husband and wife be honest with each other? But after hearing what Yang Yang said, it is normal for a husband to trick his wife.
I always feel something is wrong, so should I discuss it with Yang Ma?
Xu Yan put down what she had in her hand and ran to the shoulder bag where she kept her mobile phone.
As soon as I picked up my phone, I thought that if Yang Ma asked about their situation, she would know that she could not do housework, wouldn’t it be embarrassing.
It’s better to call my mother, as my biological mother can’t dislike her daughter.
I found my mother's phone number on my phone. Xu Yan was about to press the dial button, but stopped again.
When she and Yang Yang came out to live, Xu Ma must be very worried. If she called her, she would be worried about whether she was not doing well outside and whether Yang Yang would bully her.
When it comes to bullying, Yang Yang's behavior today is not considered bullying. If his mother misunderstood that she was deliberately hiding something and ran to Yang's mother to misunderstand something, wouldn't it be even more difficult for her to be a human being?
Being a qualified wife is really hard.
Xu Yan sighed and finally put her phone back in her bag.
I decided to listen to Yang Yang's words first, lift off the dustproof cloth on the furniture, take it to wash it, and then wait for him to come back.
...
Yang Yang, who had already left the community, did not know that his wife had a series of complicated psychological activities at home.
I came to the cake shop where Xu Qi went in the afternoon.
"I want to ask, if you came to a policeman named Xu Qi in the afternoon, do you still have any impression?" Yang Yangzhi found the clerk and asked.
"You mean police officer Xu, I have an impression. He often comes to take care of our business. Is there anything wrong?" the clerk replied naturally, while looking at Yang Yang curiously.
Compared to Xu Qi, the person in front of him is a new face.
Yang Yang ignored the clerk's gaze and asked directly: "If I want to make a cake that is the same as the cake he ordered and the words on it are the same, how long will it take to get it?"
"It's the same?" The clerk thought for a moment, glanced at the reservation list hanging on the wall next to him, "No one has been ordering cakes again recently. If you are in a hurry, it should be about the same in 2 hours."
After hearing what the clerk said, Yang Yang felt relieved, and the problem was easier to solve than he wanted.
"Then please trouble the master in the store and try to do it as soon as possible. I have urgent needs to use it in the evening."
The clerk nodded and took down the reservation list from the wall, wrote a line of words on the position where Xu Qi placed the order, intending to give it to the master in the store later and make another one.
"Is there anything else to buy?" the clerk said casually.
Yang Yang immediately looked at the various pastries and small cakes in the glass cabinet behind him.
If he moved to the community alone, he would give him anything, and no one would say anything without giving anything.
But now he and his wife are preparing to settle down here. In order to establish a good neighborhood relationship, it is not appropriate not to give anything. It should not be too simple or too grand when delivering things. It should not only show their intentions, but also have to be practical.
After looking around in the store, I found that the store was also making small cakes that were bigger than a child's palm. I couldn't help but remember his childhood experience.
At that time, it was not popular in the villages when they were having a child’s birthday. It was already very good to have a table of better food than usual.
But children always like beautiful and sweet things. I don’t know when a small cake in a small plastic box became popular among children.
Every time it’s birthday, the child will always pester his parents to buy one or two, either eating it by himself or sharing it with his brothers and sisters.
“How to sell this kind of cake?”
"Twenty yuan per person, the children around me like to eat it." The clerk glanced at the small cake in the cabinet and replied.
Hearing that the children around him liked to eat, Yang Yang liked this little cake even more, "Then prepare twenty for me, I'll get them tonight."
"Twenty? Will it be too many?"
The clerk was really shocked by Yang Yang. Even if the children around him liked to eat, there were only a dozen stocks in the store, and they would only make them after they were sold out.
Someone wants to buy twenty ones as soon as he comes, and this is the first time he has encountered them.
"Twenty are just right, aren't there so many in the store?" Yang Yang said as he continued to look for other alternatives in the cabinet.
There are eight floors of residential buildings where Yang Yang and Xu Yan live. In theory, there should be sixteen residents. Considering that the community police officer Xu Qi and Mr. Wang, whom I just met today, twenty should be considered a relatively reasonable number.
The small cake looks quite exquisite, which is incomparable to other pastries of the same price in the store.
"If you can wait to get it with the cake you just ordered, there will be so many."
"That's good. I'll get it later. Please help me pack it in a carton."
"You guys come and get it. Do I need me to prepare a large carton for you? Sorry, there are few people in our store, so we don't provide door-to-door delivery."
"It's okay if two people come to get it, but it's okay if I don't deliver it to my door. I just live nearby and have a cardboard box."
After all, it is a cake shop next to the vegetable market, so Yang Yang didn't expect too much.
Seeing that Yang Yang was easy to talk to, the clerk breathed a sigh of relief and pointed to the QR code next to him.
"Then please scan the code here and count the deposit for the cake just now, totaling 300."
"OK."
Yang Yang left the cake shop after scanning the code.
Immediately afterwards, an old lady led the little boy into the cake shop.
"Grandma, I want to have a small cake."
"Okay, grandma buy it for you." The old lady took out a wrinkled twenty pieces from her pocket, "Please give my grandson that little cake."
The clerk was embarrassed and said with a thorny blowjob: "Mother-in-law, all the cakes in the store were booked by someone just now, and they paid all the money."
"Then when will you make new?" The old lady's expression turned cold and she stared at the clerk with her eyes.
The clerk was also embarrassed, "I guess I have to wait tomorrow, and the chef who made the cakes inside should also rest."
The little boy heard that there was no small cake and sliced it on the counter, "Is it the cake ordered by the uncle who left just now?"
The clerk didn't want to reveal the customer's information, but the old lady was staring at him coldly, and he nodded slightly.
When the little boy heard this, he ran out of the cake shop, looked at Yang Yang's back as he left, and greeted his grandmother.
"Grandma, that uncle has entered our community, maybe he lives there too."
After saying that, the little boy ran back to the store, started to pull his grandmother's hand, and said coquettishly: "Grandma, that uncle will definitely not be able to finish buying so many small cakes. Let's buy one for him."
He couldn't resist his grandson, and the old lady nodded helplessly.
