The Home-Managing Girl Will Never Waste a Single Cent!

"Looking closer, it read: Qin Xianglian, age thirty-two, is suing the Emperor's son-in-law for deceiving the king and hiding from the Emperor..."

Another bright and sunny Friday...

Old Man Liu shook his head, thoroughly enjoying the Peking Opera playing on his phone. He squinted, took a sip of tea, and gazed through the glass at the unchanging scenery of the past few decades. He couldn't help but sigh, "The seas change and the mulberry fields..."

Wait!

Something's up!?????♂???

His duty to protect the residents' peace, a habit of eating Little Bear cookies for decades, made him snap to attention.

Old Man Liu immediately put down his teacup and grabbed his whip. Seeing a familiar-looking motorcycle parked at the entrance, he was about to grab the loudspeaker to deliver his usual unchanging lines.

But a slightly thin figure dismounted from the motorcycle, causing him to pause and sit back down.

Sigh...

Old Man Liu let out a soft sigh and fanned himself.

It's not easy for this child to go out and make friends...

How many years has it been already?

"I, I can get off here."

Hua Xin released the corner of her clothes she had been gripping tightly, adjusted her oversized clothes, and her voice sounded deliberately calm.

The girl held a pure black helmet in her hands and had a backpack slung over her shoulders. If she were a little shorter, she would look like a primary school student.

(Go home meow, go home meow...)

The girl's heart was filled with the joy of returning home soon.

"Then... should we do the assignment on Saturday or Sunday?"

Xia Yan also held his helmet to his chest. Looking at Hua Xin's retreating back, a hint of slyness flashed in his eyes.

He deliberately brought up the topic, wanting the girl to look forward to going out.

After all, she'd be going out with him, right???

Hua Xin froze on the spot and said in a very reluctant whisper, "Sun, Sunday..."

Then she darted away as if fleeing.

Xia Yan smiled and put on his helmet, starting the motorcycle.

So cute (referring to her personality)...

He would help her get better. A hint of reminiscence flashed in Xia Yan's eyes.

He would turn that suffocating feeling of loneliness and exclusion into anticipation and happiness for life.

The bright sun seemed to play a background score for him:

The righteous light!??! Shining upon the earth...

Home...

Hua Xin breathed a sigh of relief, instantly taking off her clothes and mask, leaving only the close-fitting short shorts and a loose half-sleeve shirt.

Untying the cloth strip at her chest, the slime could finally display its grandeur. The prolonged pressure had made it difficult for the girl to breathe.

It couldn't be helped, that's just how it is when disguised as a boy.

Like a zombie, she pounced onto the sofa, groaning adorably and relaxing like a cheese leopard.

"Home is a safe house..."

"Home is home..."

Rolling around on the old sofa, the girl suddenly remembered the conversation she had with Xia Yan when they parted ways.

Hua Xin's eyes instantly lost their luster, and dark energy spread across her body in a tangible way.

In some class today, the teacher suddenly assigned a practical investigation assignment: students had to choose a topic, form teams, and go out to the streets to interview passersby, then record and compile it into a video.

She wanted to escape.

Xia Yan caught her.

Then they formed a team.

"Damn Xia...??, Shrimp Head??!?? I'll definitely get revenge on you..."

The girl picked up her small fists and pounded the sofa with all her might, her eyes filled with shame and indignation.

Well... going out is going out... she'll just hold up her phone and stay far away??.

Then Hua Xin slowly calmed down.

Looking at the pile of express delivery boxes in front of her, the corners of her mouth slowly turned up.

These were all obtained yesterday using ???? as free labor! She only had to carry them upstairs twice.

The next month's groceries have arrived.

Hua Xin hummed a little tune, her bare feet, tinged with a faint pink, stepping onto the floor.

Casually picking up a utility knife, she happily sat cross-legged amidst a pile of express packages and began to open them one by one.

"250 grams of mung beans... I can make mung bean soup! Will adding Thirteen Spices make it tastier??"

You can try!??

"A whole case of scallion soda crackers, 500 grams... Breakfast is sorted! And it can be a late-night snack too??."

"200g of farm-style purple sweet potato chips... these can be used as chew sticks."

Tossing the cardboard box aside, Hua Xin looked at the massive cardboard box in front of her and couldn't help but swallow.

This was the item she was most satisfied with...

The healthiest sweet milk?? (Don't get the wrong idea????)!!! And it wasn't expired!!!??

The girl impatiently opened the cardboard box. Seeing no signs of leakage or damage, she happily opened a carton and took a big gulp.

After spitting out her rosy little tongue and gently licking the white, viscous liquid from the corner of her mouth back into her mouth, Hua Xin was completely immersed in the bliss of food.

Reluctantly, she set aside half a carton of milk. Good things shouldn't be eaten all at once; they should be saved for last.

Next!

"380g of salted egg yolk cheese biscuits... these for lunch!"

"300g of coconut latte small crispy biscuits... these for dinner!"

"50g of flower cakes... uh, it's too little, I'll eat it now??."

With a "wu" sound, the girl put the flower cake into her mouth, puffing out her cheeks like a little hamster as she savored it.

So delicious??...

Hua Xin continued to open her packages with tears in her eyes.

"Purple garlic... uh, grow bigger quickly???"

If you don't eat garlic with noodles, half the flavor is gone! I'll save it for when I eat dumplings or stir-fry next time.

"218g of roasted pepper sauce."

"Plum jam."

The most important strategic material, its status is equal to Thirteen Spices!??!

After all, it can be mixed with rice and noodles, and also used as a seasoning??.

All unpacked...

Hua Xin looked at the boxes that had once carried happiness and the source of life, now reduced to a pile of cardboard, a hint of loss flashing in her eyes.

"It's so quiet..."

She slowly got up and tidied the cardboard, finally putting it in a storage room.

When she opened the door, it was already filled with flattened cardboard boxes?? and mineral water bottles.

Seeing this, a spark of light reappeared in the girl's eyes.

Once she sells these recyclables, she can have another feast! o(≧▽≦)o

After tidying up, when Hua Xin returned to the living room, she hesitated slightly when she saw the food on the floor.

"Friend fee..."

"Hmph??..."

She would reluctantly let this sunny, outgoing person taste what true delicacies were (tsundere)!

She took three biscuits of each brand?? (very generous, she was reluctant to eat them herself??) and put them in her schoolbag with some anticipation.

Unknowingly, Hua Xin had also come to consider Xia Yan her friend.

"Hachimi Hachimi, chubby baby chubby baby~"

"Baby, you are truly a fragrant and soft strawberry?? cake, baby baby~"

The girl opened her computer and her eyes went black as she saw the content on the screen.

"Right!"

Hua Xin suddenly remembered that she still had half a carton of milk in the living room.

Can't waste it??.

Then, the girl ran somewhat anxiously to get the milk.

But as expected, the unexpected happened.

With a "plop," Hua Xin slipped and fell to the ground.

Feeling her body, she shakily propped herself up.

It was crushed.

The slime was already stained with a layer of glistening white by the milky fluid.

??

"My..."

"My milk!!!!!!????"

A few seconds later, she somewhat silently trembled as she lifted her clothes
