Chapter 74 Whatever You Say
After leaving the shop, he drove back to Chen Jingxian's home.
After obtaining the house purchase documents and loan contract, I drove the car to the bank.
Because it was an early repayment, there was a dedicated person to receive it, so the process was much faster.
When the card was swiped successfully, Lin Jiang received a cash rebate of 261141 yuan on his mobile phone.
The balance I have now is nearly one million, which is more than enough to rent a decent house and maybe even enough to renovate it.
After finishing all the things, it was already past four in the afternoon.
The moment she paid off her mortgage, Chen Jingxian felt relaxed.
Lin Jiang also saw that the dopamine in Chen Jingxian's body was being secreted at an accelerated rate.
"Thank you, if you didn't help me, I don't know when I would be able to pay you back."
"It's not a big deal. Don't say thank you. Why make it so awkward?"
Chen Jingxian also knew that Lin Jiang was not a pretentious person, and she didn't like others being pretentious with him, so she changed the subject.
"Come on, I'll treat you to a meal. What do you want to eat? If you don't like eating outside, come to my house and I'll cook something for you."
"also."
Lin Jiang drove and went home with Chen Jingxian.
"Drive a little further, go to the supermarket and buy some things."
"Ah."
After driving forward for more than 100 meters, we arrived at a nearby supermarket.
The supermarket is of medium size, a bit like a smaller version of Berkeley Mall, with stores surrounding it and a supermarket inside, but it only has one floor.
After parking the car, the two entered the supermarket. Lin Jiang pulled a shopping cart over and walked side by side.
Chen Jingxian often comes here and is familiar with the supermarket when shopping.
It is clear what is sold in each area.
"This pork belly doesn't seem fresh. How about we not make braised pork today? But the beef looks good. Buy some pork belly and make you a tomato beef meal."
"Just anything."
"Life still needs a sense of ritual, and you can't just deal with it."
As she spoke, Chen Jingxian picked out a piece of beef topside and prepared to go back and stew it.
After buying the meat, I went to buy some tomatoes. When I was choosing, I forgot to complain that today's tomatoes were 40 cents more expensive than the previous few days.
When Chen Jingxian buys things, she pays attention to the price-performance ratio.
I know the prices of fruits and vegetables very well. If they are sold cheaply, I will buy some. If they are expensive, I will wait until the price drops before buying them.
When it comes to home life, Chen Jingxian is definitely the answer, T0 level.
"Why do you only take so few eggs? Buy more." Looking at the small bag of eggs in the shopping cart, Lin Jiang asked.
"No, it's almost the end of the month. It's the last day to exchange points for eggs. I can exchange about ten eggs every month, which is enough."
"This is something that old people do. Now that we don't have a mortgage, we won't have to do this."
"It's mainly free. When you get to the counter, you can exchange it with points. It's not a big deal. It's a waste not to take it."
"That's exactly what you said."
Chen Jingxian has this kind of personality, and it is estimated that she will not be able to change it in a short time.
After buying the things, the two lined up to pay.
Chen Jingxian held her membership card, but when scanning the code, Lin Jiang took the lead in paying the bill.
"Hey, why did you pay the bill?"
Chen Jingxian looked at the cashier and asked, "Can you return the money? I'll settle the bill."
The cashier laughed and said, "They are all married, so it doesn't matter who gets married."
"Forehead……"
After hearing what the cashier said, Chen Jingxian felt awkward.
Lin Jiang even saw her heart beating faster.
"That's right, they are a couple, why should they be so clear about the division?" Lin Jiang joked.
Chen Jingxian's face turned red, she pinched Lin Jiang secretly, lowered her head, packed up her things silently and left.
"You are such a bad person. There are so many people here, and you say whatever you want." Chen Jingxian scolded. "This shows that we look like a couple."
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm your aunt."
"What's that over there? Why are there so many of them?"
"It's a lottery, 500 points for one draw." Chen Jingxian said casually without taking it seriously.
Lin Jiang looked up and saw that there was a big box at the lottery site with a lot of papers inside. He could enter the lottery by just putting his hand in.
“How many points do you have on your membership card?”
"Ok?"
Chen Jingxian looked at Lin Jiang, "Do you want to participate in the lottery?"
"I have nothing to do anyway, so I might as well draw a prize. I see the first prize is a sweeping robot. It's a good thing to have something for free."
Phew——
Chen Jingxian laughed, "Where do you get such confidence? The first prize winners are all veteran actors."
"This only shows that they are unlucky. If I go, I will definitely win the first time."
"What if I miss?"
Woman, you are playing with fire.
"Don't talk about not winning. Tell me first, what would I do if I won?"
"Well, whatever you say is fine."
"This is what you said, so don't cheat when the time comes."
"Once I have spoken, I cannot go back on my word." Chen Jingxian held out her little finger, "Let's make a pinky promise."
"Then make a pinky promise."
The two hooked their fingers and the agreement was made.
"Let's go and draw the lottery!"
Lin Jiang took Chen Jingxian to the lottery area, where the staff were shouting loudly.
"With a 70% chance of winning, you will basically win as long as you come to draw. There are also big prizes such as sweeping robots and shopping cards waiting for you."
"A year ago, I bought a house and came to this supermarket, and the robot vacuum cleaner was already there. I guess no one will win the lottery when this supermarket goes bankrupt."
"After all, we use points to draw the prize, so we will definitely not let you take the grand prize easily, otherwise you will lose a lot of money."
"Indeed, just treat it as entertainment."
Most of the participants in the lottery are young people, and they don’t seem to expect to win. They just want to find a way to use up their points.
If you can win a bottle of mineral water, it will be considered a profit.
After all, there are not many young people like Chen Jingxian who come to exchange eggs on the last day of the month.
Lin Jiang looked at the lottery instructions next to him.
The red, blue and orange strips of paper represent the first, second and third prizes respectively.
Black and white slips of paper representing consolation prizes and thank you for your patronage.
The so-called consolation prize is a bottle of cheap mineral water, the kind that costs only two or three cents a bottle.
After reading the lottery instructions, Lin Jiang glanced at the lottery box.
Ok?
Why are there only black and white notes?
Where did the first, second and third prizes go?
Lin Jiang activated the perspective function and did not see any other colors in the black and white paper.
There won’t be first, second and third prizes, right?
Isn't this deceiving?
After looking carefully again, Lin Jiang discovered a clue.
Strips of red, blue and orange paper were stuck to the three corners of the top of the box.
Under normal circumstances, when drawing a lottery, your hands are stretched downwards and will never touch the upper corners.
This way, no one will win the first, second, or third prize.
This is a bit of a dirty trick.
