Wearing the cannon fodder little koi in the imperial examination essay

The butcher's wife sat behind the counter in the shop and watched her husband busy. She only cared about collecting the money, and yelled at the street outside from time to time. Although she was anxious about the remaining meat, she just frowned and was irritable. At this moment, she heard someone shouting outside, she raised her head to look, but she couldn't see anyone at all.

The butcher's wife frowned, she was surprised at first, thinking that she had misheard, but when the voice of asking for meat came from under the cutting board in front again, the butcher's wife stood up, stepped on her feet, and probed, only then did she see a head protruding from the cutting board.

A veritable little dwarf fish...

The butcher's wife is funny, her feelings are like a little doll who comes to buy meat, it's just that she wants five catties of meat, and she's such a little doll...

Seeing that the other party didn't move for a long time, Yu Su hurriedly stepped on her feet and shouted again. This time, the butcher's wife finally saw her person, but: "Xiaowa, you came alone? Where's your adult?"

Yu Su was depressed, straightened his waist and stood upright, "Beautiful aunt, I am the adult of my family!"

The butcher's wife... looked at Yu Su for a moment, put away her embarrassment, "Okay then, little girl, are you sure you want to weigh five catties of meat?"

Well, with this tone and demeanor, what else does Yu Su not understand?
She directly took out a money hook from her pocket, and the butcher's wife immediately smiled when she saw it, her voice was sweet and crisp, "Hey, okay, five catties of meat! Little girl, you wait." She greeted Yu Su with a smile. The butcher's wife turned her head and shouted rudely at her husband beside her, "Master, hurry up, cut five catties of good-quality pork loin for this little baby."

Buying meat at this time is not like in later generations, you can cut it wherever you want, you want plum sticks but not pork belly, and you want pig’s trotters but not hoofs.

At this time, when selling meat, except for special ones such as pig heads and pig internal organs, which are not easy to sell and will be used as extra heads, the whole body of the pig is sold at the same price. Come to buy meat, no matter which piece, in order to sell all the goods in hand, the butcher will sell pig heads and other things that people don’t like to buy at a price. The ones inside are sold together.

For example, right now, the loin steak that Yu Su wants is actually bought together with pork ribs and pork belly. After the butcher neatly cuts it into pieces that look like more than five catties and throws it into the weighing pan, he looks at Yu Su and lights his machete. At the butcher's stand, the pigs that no one cares about are talking to half of the pig's head.

"Child, do you want a pig's head or a pig's intestines for a five-jin meat?"

Yu Su thought for a while, she had quite a lot of five catties of meat, and she could make dishes by herself, so she smiled and showed cuteness to the butcher and his wife.

"Good-hearted uncle, beautiful aunt, I can do both pig's head and intestines, any two can make the decision, but please be kind to me, uncle and aunt, please be merciful, and don't add more hair to me."

As for women, even if they are ugly, there is no one who does not like to hear others say that they are beautiful, let alone the butcher's wife is not ugly.

Hearing Yu Su call her so, the butcher's wife gave Yu Su a very good-looking and discerning look in your little girl's eyes, and when she looked at her man again, the butcher's wife waved her hand savagely.

"Head of the house, don't bully the milk baby, give the child a pork belly as a head, hurry up."

The butcher complained secretly.

You prodigal girl, pork belly can buy the price of pork alone, so she gave it away like this?
but……

Forget it, seeing that this little girl has bright eyes and knows that although she looks ugly but has a kind heart, a pork belly is just a pork belly.

Quickly picked out the pork belly that he cleaned up from the wooden barrel beside the stall and threw it into the weighing pan. There was more than one catty of pork belly and five catties of meat, a little over seven catties in total. The butcher promptly reported seven catties .

"It's a total of seven catties and two taels. Little girl, if you count your weight in seven catties, it's a total of ninety-one Wen. I'll charge you the whole number of ninety Wen."

The price was quoted in his mouth, and the butcher felt a lot of pain in his heart. Normally, good meat at [-] cents a catty, but now he charges [-] cents a catty, and he is still stupid. I am really kind!
The butcher had a pockmarked face, and stared at Yu Su with big eyes staring at the copper bells. Yu Su was not afraid, and nodded with a smile. Pulling Yu Su, if you want her, don't buy it at all.

But Yu Su didn't listen, raised his chin, and looked at the 'vicious' butcher in the shop who was waiting for him to pay.

Song Sande knew that if he wanted the goods but didn't buy them, he would be disgusted by others, so he didn't dare to say any more immediately, but just watched Yu Su's movement of counting the money and kept trembling with pain.

Ninety Wen, ninety Wen, why buy so much meat!Ninety Wen, ninety Wen, that's what I earn when I go to the wharf to work for three or four days during my slack...

Yu Su saw that her third uncle finally stopped causing trouble, and she stood by the side trembling with pain, she secretly smiled and handed the remaining string to the chopping board after counting out ten coins, "Pretty aunt, here, Here's the money, take some."

After giving the money, Yu Su hurriedly looked at the butcher next to him, his mouth still very sweet, "Kind uncle, please make the meat tie you give me stronger, my house is far away, and the rope can't be broken halfway. "

That's right, Yu Su had a heart, and he abandoned the lotus leaves that wrapped the meat in other people's shops, and Fei chose another form, and asked people to use palm leaf ropes to punch holes in the meat and tie them.

She just didn't want Third Uncle to carry the meat back home quietly in a basket, and insisted that her Third Uncle be burdened and walk home with his hands.

Yu Su thought badly, when his third uncle returns home with such a big piece of meat, will anyone see him along the way?

Whenever someone saw it, wouldn't they ask a question?
As for my third uncle, the custodian will tell the truth when asked. Naturally, the whole village should know this meat, even if it hasn’t entered the house. For the vegetables in the basket, myself and my little brother saved money and gave away sugar, which was not enough, and even gave away such a big piece of meat.

Tut tut, how filial!So filial!
The wilting Yu Su paid the money, let the third uncle carry the meat, took the second sister and led the people to the city gate. There was a big car shop here, and most of the cars coming into the city were parked here.

It was not the turn of Tongyang County's fair market today, so there were few cars from Xiatou Village to enter the city, but fortunately, there was a car to Baisha Town, and Yu Sulisuo paid for the car, and pushed the honest third uncle away. After getting in the car, Yu Su took his second younger sister back home after watching the figure disappear into the city gate.

Along the way, Yu Su was still secretly apologizing to third uncle.

With such a heavy meat, I will trouble the third uncle to work hard again, and carry the meat to drive another section of the mountain road!

Sure enough, as Su expected, on the way Song Sande went back, the huge meat of the big knife in his hand attracted the attention of many people.

In the car, many people asked enviously, either asking the price, or envious, and they were fine on the road, and they were just chatting and spanking, and the old and young women and children in the car had to ask Song Sande all kinds of things.

Where did poor Song Sande see this scene before? When people asked him, he just told the truth, good fellow, after his publicity, Yu Su probably didn't even think of it, and let her and Song Xinglin live in Baisha Town, Shili Baxiang Names were given, and when they were mentioned, everyone gave them a thumbs up, praising the little tiger-fighting heroes and their husbands and wives for their filial piety.

Of course, this is something.

But say now.

After getting off the car in Baisha Town, Song Sande walked on the mountain road home with two packs of candy on his back and a huge knife of meat, and entered the village in time for the evening when the smoke from cooking was rising above the village.

This man didn't even reach the entrance of the village. From far away, he saw his own father, holding a cigarette pole, sitting under the big maple tree at the entrance of the village, chatting and spanking with a group of elderly uncles, uncles, and men in the village. .

Seeing him coming, all the eyes under the maple tree, from afar, all looked at him.

Under the tree, sitting on the bright big rock, the old man who was bored and scratching his itch smiled, pointed at Song Sande on the road at the entrance of the village and joked happily, "Hey, Baochang boy, that's your third boy, right? Is this from Shang County’s family?”

The old boy had been chattering here before, saying that the family grows a lot of vegetables, Erlang has a stubborn temper, he is worried that Erlang in the county will not live well, and why he specially asked Sande to deliver vegetables to Erlang and his wife to Yunyun.

After talking nonsense for a long time, how can I not know the little girl in this old boy's heart?
Now when he saw Sandezi coming to his house, he seemed to be carrying a lot of things in his hands, so he smiled meaningfully.

Ever since I got something from that kid Erlang, seeing that this kid can beat a tiger in Wu Neng, and Wen Neng goes to the city to study to make him more promising, who am I not partial to?Immediately, he spoke to Song Baochang in a strange way.

As the oldest elder in ten miles and eight villages, Huang's words are still very useful.

Hearing his voice, some other old men couldn't help laughing. Who told you that the damn old Song had been twittering just now, and he was always showing off his secrets, and he was running on them.

Those sharp-eyed fellows who are not yet presbyopic saw that what Song Sande was holding in his hand was actually a large piece of meat, and at the same time he was envious and jealous, but at the same time he wanted to taunt Song Baochang. Prudish?

The tricky old man yelled in the direction of the village entrance, "San Dezi, San Dezi, hurry up, your father has been waiting for you here for half an afternoon, why are you dawdling! Hurry up!" Come here quickly..."

Song Sande, who didn't know why, heard the shout under the tree in front of him, looked around, and saw that the person who spoke was an elder in the village who was of the same generation as his own father, and his own father really looked towards him, Song Sande Ignoring the tiredness of carrying the giant meat all the way, he ran towards the tree at a fast pace.

When he got close, Song Sande shook the pannier on his back, raised his arm to wipe the sweat from his forehead, smiled and called Dad, and then greeted other old men.

The tricky little old man waved his hands just now to say that there is no need to be polite, and he just hit the point when he opened his mouth.

"I said San Dezi, Uncle asked you, it's not a good year, and your family didn't do anything good. Why did you buy so much meat? What's the matter? But you want to entertain a group of us old men to eat the big family? "

How can I answer this honestly?
Song Sande couldn't help looking at his father, seeing his father's 'smiling' face trembling, but he just didn't give himself a little reminder, he only cared about smoking, Song Sande had no choice but to explain honestly.

"Uncle, I didn't buy this meat. Isn't this why my father asked me to go to the city to deliver food to Erlang and Erlang's wife? Erlang's wife is sensible and filial, she is reluctant to eat and drink, and insists on buying meat for the family. Many, she said she was filial to my father and mother, not only that, but she also bought honey dime for the elders."

"Yo, there's not only meat, but also honeydew! My dear, it's not bad..."

The tricky old man couldn't help stroking his short beard, and looked at Song Baochang's growing eccentricity.

"Hey, old Song, your Erlang is really not good at living as you said, look, look! If you have money, it's not good to keep it for school and buy books and pens. You have to give it to me. You poor old man buys meat and candy, tsk tsk tsk, these two little kids are really not good at living, they are so ignorant!"

At this time, the old man also added hungrily, "Baochang, why did I hear that your family only supports the young and old to study, and ignores Erlang, who is going to study in the city, and doesn't care about the children's miscellaneous studies?" What about Xiu? Tell me, is this really the case?"

Song Baochang...

He scolded his mother in his heart, and said in his heart that my own family affairs, need you bad old men to bully me?
But who is he, he is Song Baochang with the best reputation, the best reputation, and the cleanest feathers in Manshan Village!

For these idle old men who love to see disharmony in other people's families, Song Baochang decided not to care about them, but he forgot how he beeped with everyone here before.

At this moment, Song Baochang only felt that the third son in front of him was too stupid, so that he couldn't hold his face, so he could only smile in embarrassment.

Fortunately, the old woman at home was strong, and when Song Baochang was thinking about how to get down the stairs, Zhou Caihua, who was waiting at home for her husband and son, was worried, and told the worry-free third daughter-in-law to go to the kitchen to cook dinner. He didn't even bother to take off his apron, shook off the water droplets on his hands, and rushed towards the entrance of the village in a hurry.

The third son went into the city with his second granddaughter, and set off early in the morning before dawn, and the sun was about to set, so I don't know if the stupid son came home?Did you bring anything home?
As a result, as soon as he came, he saw his stupid son with a huge knife in his hand, but stood stupidly at the entrance of the village and did not move.

Zhou Caihua complained, are the father and son stupid!

It is said that wealth is not revealed, and so much meat cannot be revealed!In case that person with a good nose sends the children of the family to come to the door with a rice bowl, will she give it or not.

Stingy Zhou went up and down in an instant, shouting at people from all over the world.

"Old man, Saburo, the sun is already setting, and the house is waiting for dinner. You don't want to go home, where are you squatting with long hair? Go, go, come with my house..."

Well, it was a coincidence that the old woman appeared, so I didn't have to think of countermeasures to save face, and hit these tricky old men by the way, the old woman came to rescue myself.

Song Baochang finally pulled out the bata stick from his mouth, laughed and scolded Song Sande as a brat, lit the stick on his silly son and looked at his old woman not far away, and then reprimanded his son in a fake manner.

"Didn't you hear your mother calling you, brat! Hurry up and go home, don't let your mother wait for you."

Song Sande, who had been scolded, came to his senses now, nodded repeatedly, responded to his words, and rushed towards Zhou Caihua with his meat in his hands.

Seeing his wife on the road, before his son rushed forward, he stretched out his hand to pull him up. In fact, he pulled his flesh and lifted his feet and left. Looking at the backs of the mother and son leaving in a hurry, Song Baochang lightly knocked on the tree trunk next to him with his cigarette stick Knock, and then said with a fake smile on his face.

"Uncle Huang, there are still a few brothers. Your younger brothers and sisters came to urge my brother to go home, so I won't talk to you anymore. Let's go back and chat."

Throwing away those words, he thrust the cigarette stick into the back of his waist, and Song Baochang walked swiftly.

Song Baochang didn't know how after he left, a group of jealous old men under the tree behind him, watching his leaving back, pointed and shook their heads;
What Song Baochang didn't even know was that because of such a piece of meat, he was secretly told a joke by so many people behind his back;
