1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 358 The Tigress in Lao Yang's Breakfast Shop
I spent a lot of money to treat everyone to a breakfast. The uncle and aunt were also very happy. If they had something to do, they even took Luo Tao to introduce him to someone.

This was originally a good thing, but when he thought of Zhu Lin's blank eyes, Luo Tao's whole body was agitated.

This is a traitorous heart but no courage.

He kept declining, saying that he was still young and not in a hurry.

Do you hear this being said by a human being?
After being married for so many years, why can't I be more honest? I'm not a big star, and I still have to hide my marriage history.

"Uncle Xia, have you had enough to eat and drink?"

After everyone left, only two people were left waiting to pay.

Luo Tao wiped his mouth after eating and asked Uncle Xia who was still drinking bean juice.

This is not really about him having enough to eat and drink.

"That's enough for me. You can go and pay the bill! Leave me alone." Without even raising his head, he buried his head in drinking the soy juice that was about to bottom out.

Then I picked up the last burnt ring in the bamboo plate. It was extremely crispy and even crumbs fell off when I bit it.

Uncle Xia picked it up with chopsticks in his right hand and picked it up carefully with his left hand.

For one thing, he never looked up at Luo Tao.

Luo Tao got up and looked at him for a while.

I was convinced by this uncle in my heart, and he ate a lot and saw a lot, so he was naturally very good at not wanting to buy it.

Luo Tao shook his head and strode forward with difficulty, biting the bullet and going to pay the bill.

The sins you have committed must still be borne by you alone.

"How much does it cost, boss?" Luo Tao walked from the dining table to the boss, holding on to his personal money tightly for fear that it would run away.

After rummaging through every corner, I collected 21 yuan and [-] cents.

I was still quite uneasy, and I really regretted my blind generosity.When I was bragging, I didn't think about whether I had enough money with me.

Now it is not like the future generations where you can swipe your face and baby, all payments are made in cash.

When the group of uncles and aunts he had just arrived, Luo Tao roughly counted more than 20 people.

His store is small and can only serve about ten people at a time. Naturally, the more than 20 people can't sit down, so someone came up with the idea of ​​not eating here but eating at home.

The bad thing is just here, if you take it home and eat it, then there is nothing to count.

Prices have also risen sharply in the past two years. It is not like in previous years when you could eat for just a dime.

"Hello comrade, the total is 18 yuan and 18 cents. Just put a zero on it and you can give me [-] yuan and [-] cents." The boss greeted me with a smile. Luo Tao was a big customer. He smiled very brightly and even wiped it off generously. zero.

Hearing this number, Luo Tao's heart suddenly relaxed.

In the mid-to-late 80s, prices across the country rose again, and various localities also adopted different policies in the tide of reform.

Many places have also begun to cancel some tickets. Didn't the capital cancel cotton tickets the year before last?
I heard that the price of vegetables will not be in the plan in the future, so we have to follow the market.

At the end of last year, Pengcheng did something more thorough, canceling grain, oil, and pork vouchers, implementing price negotiations, and opening up supply.

A series of reforms are causing prices to rise, and this breakfast restaurant is among them.

The era of one-two cents is gradually entering the history books. Nowadays, there are fewer things that can be bought for a few cents on the street.

Chinese cabbage weighs just over a pound.

Now it costs four cents to buy a Fuqiang powder white-flour steamed bun and two boxes of matches.

"Thank you! Can you count enough?" Luo Tao gave him two big tickets and some change.

I gave him a total of 19 yuan.

He didn't take advantage of the boss's small profit of four cents. If he was short of money, that would be a different matter. If he didn't lack the money, he would still have to be more prudent.

He took the money handed over by Luo Tao without any courtesy. He clicked it in person and found that he was given a few cents more.He smiled and said: "Comrade, you gave me fifty cents too much."

Luo Tao waved his hand and said, "I have the money, and besides, your tofu bread is pretty good. ...You can let me, why can't I let you?"

After speaking, he left.

Lao Yang was stunned, thinking to himself that this man was really weird. Everyone else wanted to give less, but he really wanted to give more.

Watching Luo Tao return to his seat and looking at the crumpled money in his hand, he felt a little sorry.

So he took two meat buns from the cage drawer, put them on the bamboo plate, and prepared to take them over.

At this time, the housekeeper of his family saw that she had been paying attention to Luo Tao's checkout. It should be said that a group of them came over, especially when Luo Tao wanted to invite these people to dinner, so she stared at Luo Tao.

This was not because Luo Tao was good-looking, but she was worried that Luo Tao would eat the Overlord meal and run away.

I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw him paying the bill. I was so excited about this big deal that I saw that this prodigal man in my family wanted to be a good person.

There was wind under my feet, so I quickly stopped the prodigal man who was carrying the buns and was about to leave.

She scolded him in a low voice: "What are you doing? Didn't people make it clear and clear? Put it back, two buns cost more than ten cents. Really, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are if you don't become a householder."

This is still a tigress!If she hadn't been born in a butcher's family, she would never have been so wealthy.

Lao Yang must be afraid of her, he didn't dare to move when she said that, and he even got nervous.

The tigress snatched the money from his hand with one hand and the bamboo plate with the other.

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and work! You want to exhaust me to death, don't you?"

When she was calm, she still saved some face for Lao Yang in front of others, but when she was angry, she no longer had so many scruples.

For her, if there is fire in her heart, she must let it out.

Lao Yang had no choice but to pick up the tablecloth she used to wipe the table and turned around to clean up the mess left by the guests.

"How come I've ended up like this in my life?"

After muttering a few words, Tigress picked up the buns and took a bite of each. After finishing the meal, she wiped her hands on her apron, looked at the money, and felt better.

"If I could meet such a master every day, my precious son would be able to marry the third girl from Fang Erluzi's family."

It's beautiful to think about, and I don't forget to take a few more glances at Luo Tao, who is sitting on the stool waiting for Uncle Xia.

In her mind, Luo Tao is handsome, rich, and most importantly, stupid.

Luo Tao didn't notice the little incident between Lao Yang and his wife. He was concentrating on watching Uncle Xia eat.

"Uncle Xia, please stop eating. The bottom of the bowl is already bright."

I saw him put down the bowl with a "pop", his eyes wide open, and he was very angry.

This is not only to save face, but also to teach Luo Tao not to underestimate the uncle.

"Hey! Why are you so loud? Young people don't understand frugality at all."

After finishing speaking, he patted his ass and left.

At this time, his steps didn't look old at all.

"Ahem! Please go slowly. There are still things we haven't discussed clearly. Why are you in a hurry?"

Luo Tao followed behind him. During the meal, what the old man said aroused Luo Tao's curiosity.

He had nothing to do at that time, so he also participated in playing "house" in their factory during those years.

Although he didn't say what good things he got, Luo Tao guessed from his vague words that the old man definitely got a lot of good things.
