Get something in the courtyard

Chapter 469 Honoring the Deaf Old Lady

The next morning, there was something strange about the people in the middle courtyard and backyard.This was what Lou Xiaoe discovered when she went back to the backyard to get something.

The good people in the courtyard began to pay attention to the deaf old lady, especially those in the backyard, who actually took the initiative to bring food to the deaf old lady.Although they are all steamed buns and porridge, they are really surprising.

The people delivering food met at the door of the deaf old lady and looked at each other awkwardly.

The most exaggerated thing was at Liu Haizhong's house. The second aunt actually brought a boiled egg to the deaf old lady.

Xu Damao asked in surprise: "Are they crazy? In the past, the deaf old lady forced them to deliver food, but no one was willing. Why are you taking the initiative to deliver food to the deaf old lady now?"

"Maybe it's the rumor yesterday! I think those families have children who don't have jobs."

"Then the third uncle hasn't brought breakfast to the deaf old lady yet?"

Wang Kun said with a smile: "Okay, stop talking. Yan Bugui just wants to give it away, but the deaf old lady may not be willing to eat it. Don't you want to see what his family eats in the morning?"

Xu Damao laughed when he thought about Yanbu Gui's breakfast. "Did Si Zhu mean what he said? It made so many people give gifts to the deaf old lady."

It's definitely not intentional.

Silly Zhu doesn't have such a smart mind, he just deliberately tries to argue with Xu Damao.

So many people brought food to the deaf old lady, but the deaf old lady knew everyone’s purpose and still didn’t refuse.If the deaf old lady can't fulfill her promise, then there will be a good show.

The Yanbu Gui family across the street also heard news that several families had given food to the deaf old lady.The family sat at home and kept sighing.

Yan Jiecheng knew very well that the deaf old lady was related to his work, and he was most anxious. "Dad, Mom, please think of a solution quickly. There are so many people bringing food to the deaf old lady. What if the deaf old lady gives them her job quota? What should I do?"

Yan Bugui snorted: "What can I do? I can't let your mother make another steamed bun and send it to the deaf old lady!"

Yan Jiecheng murmured in a low voice: "Can't you make a white-flour steamed bun?"

Several other brothers and sisters of the Yan family stared at Yan Jiecheng.They can't eat white flour steamed buns only a few times throughout the year, so why would they want to give them to a deaf old lady?

The third aunt frowned and said: "Our white noodles have all been replaced by stick noodles and sweet potato noodles. Where can we find white noodles?"

Yu Li secretly pushed Yan Jiecheng and cheered him up.At this time, you must not back down. Once you back down, it means that your job quota has nothing to do with you.

Yan Jiecheng took Yu Li's hint and said, "Mom, just buy some white noodles during the day."

The third aunt stretched out her hand towards Yan Jiecheng: "You bring out the money, and I will buy it."

Yan Jiecheng was immediately speechless.

Yu Li secretly cursed a waste: "Mom, how can we have any money in our hands? If our family doesn't give it to us, the matter of job quotas will have nothing to do with us. In that case, it will be meaningless for us to follow the master's plan."

Yan Bugui thought about it for a while and made a decision in his heart.It is absolutely essential to please the deaf old lady.The relationship between his family and the deaf old lady is not good. If the deaf old lady is not happy, the deaf old lady will not give her a job quota to his family.

But you can’t learn from others.Following others to deliver steamed buns, their family couldn't bear the loss.Moreover, there were so many steamed buns that the deaf old lady couldn’t remember them.

"You are too short-sighted. When others send steamed buns, we also send steamed buns. Isn't that just trying to offend others? It's useless. Look at your second uncle's family, they specially brought an egg to the deaf old lady. You said the deaf old lady knows how to do it? Won't you help? I want the deaf old lady to remember that we must give better gifts than the old Liu family."

Yan Jiecheng asked puzzledly: "Then what should we give to our family? We can't give two eggs, right?" When the third aunt heard this, she was so anxious that she was sweating. It's not cheap to give eggs, so it's better to give steamed buns. "Old man, you..."

Yan Bugui said with a smile: "If we want to give away, we must give the deaf old lady her favorite food. So, I decided to give meat to our family."

The third aunt became even more anxious: "Old man, if you send meat to the deaf old lady every day, our family will not be able to survive."

Yan Bugui said with a smile: "The wool comes from the sheep. We are looking for a job for Jie Cheng, so the money should be given to Jie Cheng. Jie Cheng, are you willing?"

Yan Jiecheng didn't even have to think about it and said, "Dad, I work part-time outside and earn only a dozen yuan a month. I also have to pay accommodation and food expenses for my family. After a month, I don't even have a dollar left." , how do you want me to pay."

"I didn't say that I would give meat to the deaf old lady every day. According to my guess, just give it two or three times. Just give me two yuan and I will ask your mother to take care of the matter for you."

Yu Li thought about it and realized that two yuan was indeed a lot, but as long as she could find a job, she could earn it back quickly, so she nodded towards Yan Jiecheng.

Yan Jiecheng gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I agree."

"Take the money!"

Yan Jiecheng looked at Yu Li, who sadly took out two dollars and handed them to the third aunt.

When the third aunt saw Yan Bugui's eyes, she endured what she was about to say and collected the money.

After the children left, the third aunt asked: "Old man, you need meat coupons to buy meat. If you can buy a pound of meat for two yuan, it's good. The deaf old lady has such an appetite, one pound of meat is not enough for her to eat a meal." .These are too few.”

Yan Bugui glanced at the door and said, "If I hadn't said this, would Jie Cheng have been able to take out the money so happily?"

"But if you take his money, you can't help but do something! Where can I get the meat from?"

"Don't worry, I don't have classes in the afternoon. I can find any reason to come back early. I'm going fishing in Shichahai. The fish I catch are free. This way we can let the deaf old lady eat meat without spending a penny."

The third aunt looked surprised and almost cheered loudly. "Old man, your brain is still quick. When you catch the fish, I will make fish soup. Get a big bowl of fish soup for the deaf old lady. Our family can also have a meal of fish soup."

Yan Bugui nodded, "That's what I think. Prepare the fishing tools for me, and I'll come home to get them in the afternoon."

The third aunt agreed immediately and promised to prepare it for Yan Bugui.

Only then did Yan Bugui ride his bicycle to work with satisfaction.

The second aunt gave the egg to the deaf old lady, but she didn't get even a word of praise.Seeing the deaf old lady eating eggs with peace of mind, she felt very unhappy.

Back home, the second aunt complained: "That old lady is too useless. When I give her eggs, she doesn't even give me a smile. Old Liu, we can't keep giving them to the deaf old lady, can we?" !”

Liu Haizhong sneered and said: "Don't be angry. When I become the leader, I won't have to give it to her. When I become the leader, our family will have everything, so we don't need to care about these eggs."

"But there are still so many people giving things to the deaf old lady. They are too smart and they all know how to give gifts to the deaf old lady."

Liu Haizhong said confidently: "The only one who can compete with me is Lao Yi. Others have no ability to compete with me. All their efforts are in vain. Don't worry about it. They are giving things to the deaf old lady now, and when I become an official, they will also Give me something. Our family is not at a loss, I will go to work first."
