Chapter 204 – The Madam of Savings (2)

“That … 800 yuan won’t be enough to pay for all this …”

Abalones, sea cucumbers, lobsters – None of these is necessary!

“No, no, no!!””

Yu Yaoyao was shocked when she thought about it. Even if he were a bit better off, his current assets won’t be able to afford such gourmet food, and would only serve as liabilities to pull him back!

“We…”

Halfway through the sentence, she paused. She glanced at the beautiful texture and thick meat glazed with fatty streaks in his hand … And swallowed involuntarily.

Even though she wanted to refuse the meat, she couldn’t help but hesitate, reluctant to part with the delicacy.

“Um… Shall we take one steak? Just a small piece…?”

If she ate one mouthful a day, the premium steak would last for three days!!

“Won’t be enough to eat.” Shen Yichong vetoed without thinking twice/hesitation/with no second thought.

Even though their son was very young and thus can’t complete a full plate, as long as it is cut into smaller pieces, he can still stomach more than half a steak.

No need to speak of Yu Yaoyao, this glutton.

If he doesn’t let her eat well, she would babble/nag and accuse/slander him of bullying her incessantly. The (resultant) tears she would shed are usually generous enough to directly wash their dishes afterwards.

Unexpectedly, Yu Yaoyao hugged the hand with which he held the steak, and firmly shook her head.

“Husband~ Today, let the three of us eat one steak. There are other dishes too – Vegetables, fruits, rice – We should take note of our nutrition requirements. One can’t just eat meat~!”

These were words Shen Yichong had once directed at Yu Yaoyao. His mouth twitched. He glanced at her, then at the cameraman who followed.

“Is this a hidden task?”

A confused Yu Yaoyao: “Huh?”

“Last week, you claimed any human can eat 3 steaks in a single sitting.” Shen Yichong exposed her mercilessly

Yu Yaoyao coughed and blushed with difficulty, “Husband, I ate a lot of lunch at the crew this afternoon, so I will be eating less this evening. I’ll take one bite of the steak for a taste- Uh… scratch that, two bites! Just two!”

As she said that, she closed her eyes in pain and turned away in order to not let her cravings linger on the delicious-looking steak!

“You can share the rest of the steak with Little Bun. Since he’s still in his growing stage, he would feel full by three mouthfuls. There will still be a lot left, you can eat the rest of the meat~”

She is the only one in the family who can endure prolonged periods of starvation. At this critical moment, she is the only one who can manage to eat less!

She comforted herself: But hey, it’s still much better than getting to eat merely once a week!

She was used to not eating upto a month while hibernating! It was nothing for her! Pei! Simple! Easy-peasy!

Shen Yichong immediately caught Yu Yaoyao’s tragic expression. Though he didn’t get what she was up to; he couldn’t help but feel a little pained for her. He knew her love for eating very well.

Now, for reasons unknown, she is actually restraining herself and is willing to sacrifice her favorite meat in favor of him and his son?

“Are you sure?” Shen Yichong narrowed his eyes.

“Yep!” Yu Yaoyao hurriedly pulled him away, fearing he might end up second guessing the longer he remains by the counter.

However, Shen Yichong assumed she was saving money to buy seafood. Unexpectedly, in the end, she picked a big bream for a very cheap price. Even when he walked over to select and weigh some prawns, she cried out and grabbed him.

Too expensive, a single catty costs more than 80 yuan! It costs more than 80 yuan a catty!

“Husband, you see, these shrimp aren’t a nice catch – Their heads are too big, buying would be too big of a waste!”

Shrimp heads can’t be eaten, ah!

Had she been a snake, she could still have gulped the carcass and digested it somehow. The human body, on the other hand, is useless in that aspect!

Can’t be eaten equals having to throw them away, but it was sold based on weight and costs a lot of money. That would be such a big loss!!

Bream in comparison is very good! It’s cheap, cute and tasty! The bones are very light and don’t add any extra weight!

Shen Yichong narrowed his eyes in doubt, and soon, was dragged away from the seafood section once again.
