Siheyuan: Chen Xueru helped me intercept Hu Qin Huairu

Chapter 77: Jia Zhang's cheating online

There are eight words in total on the blackboard, and there are group words under each word.

But I haven’t seen the pinyin, and I don’t know if it hasn’t been invented yet.

Learning eight characters in one hour seemed a bit slow to him, but considering that Tian Zao had zero basic knowledge, it was understandable.

It would be even better if it also told some stories.

Seeing Li Xiuzhu come in, Yan Bugui made some finishing touches.

Li Xiuzhu then said: "Brother Yan, thank you for your hard work. That's it for today. Let's go."

Yan Bugui smiled and said, "Okay, let's go back."

"Tian Zao, Qin Huairu, you go back and review what I talked about today. I will do a spot check the day after tomorrow."

Qin Huairu was holding a wedding banquet the next day, so Yan Bugui was not included.

When the two heard the words, they quickly nodded in agreement and took a pencil and a notebook.

At first glance, it was clear that this was given by Yan Bugui, and the two of them didn't take anything before coming.

But Li Xiuzhu didn't say anything. These things only cost one or two cents in total, so they were worthless.

Just treat Yan Bugui to a meal half a month later. It's not a big problem.

Come to think of it, Lao Yan would also like to exchange these things for food.

At the same time, Jia Dongxu, who returned home, also complained about Jia Zhang. When Jia Dongxu said that Li Xiuzhu sold pork to the Sun family's daughter-in-law, Jia Zhang suddenly quit.

"How dare she? How dare she buy it?"

"This is bullying the orphans and widows of our Jia family. No, I have to go find her."

When Jia Dongxu heard this, he was so frightened that he stopped Jia Zhang and said eagerly: "Mom, please let me worry a little. If you go to make trouble now, won't you make my brother look bad? Do you still want me to work in the steel rolling mill?" ”

When Jia Zhang heard this, she immediately lost her temper. Her baby Dongxu and her job were her Achilles heel.

Seeing her son's dejected look, Mrs. Jia Zhang also felt distressed.

"Don't be afraid, Dongxu, he won't sell it to us. Mom will line up to buy it for you early tomorrow morning. I will definitely buy it for you."

Yi Zhonghai looked at the two of them and sighed, his mind about accepting a disciple a little wavering.

Dongxu is a good young man, but his mother is a bit annoying. He should think about accepting disciples again.

"Dongxu, it's getting late, I'll go back first."

"Sister-in-law Jia, remember to go early when you're queuing up to buy meat tomorrow. It's hard to buy meat now. If you go late, it will be gone."

Mrs. Jia Zhang nodded when she heard this, and felt furious in her heart. She must go to breakfast tomorrow morning to buy meat for her son.

She didn't believe it. Without Li Xiuzhu, she couldn't buy meat?

joke!

"Don't worry, I'll queue up before dawn tomorrow."

Jia Dongxu felt better now.

"Then mom, don't forget it."

There is no alarm clock at home, so I wake up with the people in the courtyard every day.

Therefore, Jia Dongxu said worriedly.

But sometimes whatever you fear comes true.

Early the next morning, it was dawn.

Jia Dongxu didn't take it seriously when he got up. From the sounds outside the house, everyone must have just gotten up and weren't ready to start work yet.

His mother lived in the back room. At this time, he didn't know that his mother hadn't gotten up. He just thought that it was so quiet because the old mother had gone out to buy meat.

After Jia Dongxu washed his face and brushed his teeth, and was about to get something to eat, suddenly the door to the back room opened.

The mother and son looked at each other, and the next second the air suddenly fell into silence.

Mrs. Jia and Zhang woke up when they looked at each other.

Jia Dongxu didn't expect that his mother hadn't gone out yet.

It's dawn.

"Mom, why are you still at home? Have you bought the meat?"

Jia Dongxu was extremely worried, fearing that Mrs. Jia Zhang had not gone to buy meat yet, he just hoped that as he hoped, his mother would come back after shopping.

However, Jia Zhang's sarcastic smile shattered Jia Dongxu's hopes and said quickly: "Mom just woke up, I'll buy it for you right now, don't worry."

"It's still early, and it won't delay your marriage."

After saying this, Mrs. Jia Zhang ran out of the room as if running away, not even daring to stop.

Looking at his mother's retreating figure on the window, Jia Dongxu opened his mouth and felt that he had a bad start today and was particularly unlucky.

In the end, Jia Dongxu sighed and could only hope that his mother would be lucky and be able to buy pork.

However, an hour later, Mrs. Jia Zhang came back, her face not very good.

Seeing Jia Zhang's hands empty, Jia Dongxu's heart skipped a beat.

Didn't buy it?
If possible, Jia Zhang really doesn't want to come back today.

But she didn't dare to mess up about her son's wedding. She just said awkwardly: "Son, when mom went to the Dongdan vegetable market, there was no meat left."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, why is mom so stupid? She can't even buy a piece of meat. Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

Jia Dongxu was angry at first, but when he saw his mother crying, he lost his temper.

Thinking of Li Xiuzhu, Jia Dongxu gritted his teeth and walked out towards the backyard.

There is no way out now, and the only one who can help him is Brother Li.

Although Li Xiuzhu got up not late, he was in no hurry to go out.

It takes an hour and a half to get there by bicycle from Hadmen, and the whole journey is only about thirty miles.

After washing up and having breakfast under Qin Huairu's service, the two of them prepared to get up.

Tian Zao and Chen Xueru both went to work.

Tian Zao rode his bike in the morning and first saw Chen Xueru off before going to the street office.

Li Xiuzhu glanced at the time. It was less than 9 o'clock, so he came just in time to make lunch.

The pork was wrapped in oil paper, packed into a bucket with flour and tied to the back seat.

This is the only good thing about the [-]-horsepower. It can carry loads at the front and rear, and even three bags of flour can be placed on one front beam, which maximizes the stability of the triangle.

I didn't ride two bikes today, mainly because Qin Huairu wasn't proficient in riding a bike yet.

Although there are roads to the countryside, they are not as smooth as those in the city and occasionally have ups and downs.

Li Xiuzhu was afraid that Qin Huairu, a novice, would not be able to grasp the direction well on the road. A fall in this winter would not be a trivial matter.

Just to fulfill his duty as a man, he took it with him.

As soon as the two of them got out of the house and pushed the car to leave, they saw Jia Dongxu coming to the backyard.

Li Xiuzhu smiled and said, "Don't Dongxu leave yet?"

Jia Dongxu smiled burdenedly when he heard this, his smile full of bitterness.

Li Xiuzhu knew at a glance that Jia Dongxu had something on his mind.

This is also the first time Jia Dongxu meets Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu, who has outstanding appearance and is dressed in woolen clothes, entered Jia Dongxu's heart in an instant.

At this moment, Jia Dongxu actually felt that he was not that interested in Zheng Hongying, and he still felt vaguely empty in his heart.

But after all, he had something on his mind. Although Jia Dongxu had a lot of thoughts in his mind, he hurriedly said to Li Xiuzhu: "Brother, I want to ask you something."

Li Xiuzhu was not surprised, he had already guessed it.

"Meat?"

Jia Dongxu nodded quickly.

"Yes, my mother went to queue today and didn't buy it."

He didn't say that his mother was late, otherwise he would be too embarrassed to say it.

Hearing this, Li Xiuzhu said in embarrassment: "Dongxu, it's not that I won't help you, but I don't have this anymore, and my family only has half a pound of hindquarters."

Jia Dongxu's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"Other meat will do, too."

"There's no other meat either. Apart from the bride price for your sister-in-law, apart from the half a pound of rump meat, there are only two boxes of canned braised beef at home."

"Beef comes in a pound, but it's imported. If you want it, I'll sell it to you at cost for three yuan a box."

Jia Dongxu's mouth twitched when he heard this. A box costs three yuan, which is still a pound. He can't afford it.

Jia Dongxu suddenly felt sad. It seemed that he would not be able to get married today.

At this time, Li Xiuzhu suddenly spoke and continued: "How about you go to Rushui's place and have a look?"

"Your grandson sister-in-law must not have finished eating. It may be enough for the five kilograms of meat you need as a bride price."

"But you have to give people the full price, and don't kidnap people with morals. If you let me know that the price is 8 cents lower, we brothers won't have to do anything in the future."

"As for if it's not enough, after you leave, ask your mother to go to every house and ask. Maybe you can get enough for the banquet by spending some money."

Jia Dongxu was startled when he heard this.

Yes, that's nine and a half kilograms of meat. It couldn't have been created in one meal. At the worst, there must be five kilograms left.

"Okay, no more talking, brother and your sister-in-law are leaving first."

Li Xiuzhuren did his best and helped everything he could.

Moreover, there is no butt meat in his space, and ten pounds of supplies are randomly distributed every day.

There were only beef and mutton, fine ribs, ten pounds of tenderloin and nine elbows left in the space.

The rest is either seafood or canned, fruits and vegetables.

Of course, the rule that the products produced by the system must be high-quality products remains unchanged, and everything is top-notch.Ten kilograms of giant lobster, ten kilograms of king crab, etc. The fruits are also improved varieties from later generations, and they all have the best taste. The canned food is very different from the ones made by five-star chefs.

The only thing that can be smoothed out is the tenderloin, but the tenderloin is pure lean meat. In the past two years, no family likes pure lean meat, and it does not meet Jia Dongxu's requirements.

And he just took it at home in front of Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu saw that there was nothing in the house, so he couldn't just conjure it up out of thin air.

Well, they are all excuses. The most important thing is that people should be responsible for what they do. Although Jia Dongxu is not at fault for this incident, it can be regarded as an innocent disaster.

Li Xiuzhu left, and Jia Dongxu arrived at Sun's door and knocked on the door.

The Sun family's daughter-in-law stepped forward and opened the door in confusion. She was slightly startled when she saw it was Jia Dongxu, and then she had a premonition in her heart.

But she still asked politely: "It's Dongxu, what's wrong?"

Don't let anyone enter the house, just talk at the door, otherwise it won't be nice to gossip.

Jia Dongxu didn't care about this either, it was like this now, and he didn't have the heart to care about it.

"Sister-in-law from the Sun family, let me ask you if you have finished eating the meat you bought from Brother Li yesterday?"

Hearing this, the Sun family's daughter-in-law said in embarrassment: "Although we haven't finished eating, we have used all the fat meat for fuel."

"And your family and Brother Li's family..."

"If Brother Li doesn't speak, I won't dare betray you."

Jia Dongxu's face changed slightly when he heard that the fat meat was on oil, but he couldn't care so much now.

"Sister-in-law from the Sun family, my brother spoke up. It was he who pointed me here and asked me to give eight cents per catty."

Zhou Rushui's face looked much better, but he still shook his head.

Just when Jia Dongxu thought there was no chance and his expression changed slightly, Zhou Rushui said, "Give it Qimao. Wait a minute and I'll get it for you."

Seven cents?This won't work. Brother Li said he had to give him eight cents.

But before he could say anything, Zhou Rushui went in.

(ps: Some people want to see Zhou Rushui’s photos, so I’ve paired them for you.)
Jia Dongxu didn't know why the Sun family's daughter-in-law said that at first, but when he saw the pork that the Sun family's daughter-in-law brought out, he immediately understood.

He was a little numb.

This... is so clean, even if it has a little fat.

Except for the white fascia part, there is no white at all on the whole piece of meat.

But thinking about Li Xiuzhu's words, it seemed that he had to suffer this loss.

"Sister-in-law Sun, how many pounds does this weigh?"

Zhou Rushui smiled awkwardly.

"There are still six pounds or one tael left, I don't know if it is enough."

"That's enough, that's enough, here's five dollars, no need to change."

Jia Dongxu was well-educated and had a good brain. He made the bid with a little calculation, four yuan and eighty-eight cents.

But it was all calculated at [-] cents, and the remaining [-] cents didn’t feel important even if I didn’t save it.

The Sun family's daughter-in-law also went to a high school, but she wasn't as quick as Jia Dongxu, but she still knew that the money was too much.

"Don't, this will make people think I am taking advantage of you."

However, Jia Dongxu said: "Sister-in-law, please don't make it difficult for me. My brother Li said that this brother will have nothing to do after the price falls below [-] cents."

After hearing this, Zhou Rushui hesitated for a while and then stopped refusing, but it felt strange.

Your brother and sister-in-law call each other together, and those who don’t know think I am Brother Li’s wife.

"Well, that's okay. I still have some lard residue at home. I'll decorate it for you."

Jia Dongxu wanted to refuse, but thinking about his family's situation, he nodded.

"Sister-in-law, stop pretending. Keep as much as you have for yourself. I'll take the rest."

"There's also lard. It's best if you can mix it up with me. I'll pay for it."

The young daughter-in-law hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

When he got home, he weighed a pound of lard and half a pound of lard residue and gave them to Jia Dongxu. Jia Dongxu took out two dollars again and gave them to Zhou Rushui.

Only one kilogram of lard residue came out in total, and two kilograms of oil came out.

The little daughter-in-law looked at the seven yuan in her hand with a complicated expression. She resold it for seven yuan, but she only spent seven and a half yuan when she bought it.

This is equivalent to buying a pound of lard and half a pound of oil residue for thirty cents. Last night, I ate three ounces of lean meat for nothing.

This is so profitable.

But Jia Dongxu was suddenly stunned when he arrived at the door of the house with the meat.

Damn it, he forgot to borrow his bicycle. How do we get there?

Find a bullock cart to take you along?Or take the bus to Hardman and then go there on your legs?You can't take a rickshaw, right?

This rickshaw costs three yuan for a round trip of sixty miles.

Jia Dongxu entered the door with worries.

As soon as Jia Dongxu entered the door, Jia Zhang looked over, and the expression on her face changed when she saw the large piece of lean meat.

There is no way to give gifts only to lean people, but she quickly calmed down her expression.

She didn't handle this well, so how could she dare to find fault again.

"Dongxu, now that the meat is available, hurry up and pick up Hongying."

Jia Dongxu nodded tiredly after hearing this, but did not move in a hurry. Instead, he drank a tank of water to calm down, and then prepared to wrap up the meat and leave.

"Mom, I left the lard residue and lard for you, and I took away the meat."

Jia Zhang was stunned when she heard this, and asked: "If you don't leave any meat for the family? What will you do with the banquet?"

Jia Dongxu heard this and said, "There are only six pounds of lean meat left."

"If you leave any more, Hongying's side won't look good."

"You go to various stores and ask, let's spend some money to buy some. If we chip together, we can always get something together."

Mrs. Jia Zhang wanted to cut it off, but she didn't dare when she thought of Zheng Hongying's resolute look. The main reason was that she hadn't arrived home yet and was afraid that she would run away.

After thinking about it, Jia Zhang nodded.

"Okay, then Dongxu, you go pick them up. Mom will borrow them later."

Jia Dongxu nodded and went out, gritting his teeth and hailing a rickshaw.

After mentioning the place name, the rickshaw driver became numb. It was the first time he had to travel such a long distance.

But thinking about it, it seems okay. Once this vote is completed, it will be enough for one day's work.

Moreover, I could take a break while taking care of the food, which seemed to be a profit, so I agreed to the price of three yuan round trip.

Of course, he didn't pick up much bargains. He went there alone and came back with two people.

Jia Dongxu took his things and got into the car, heading all the way to Zheng's house.

At the same time, Li Xiuzhu had already left the city.

Although the road to Qinjiazhuang is not yet open to traffic, the road condition is not bad because people come to the city to sell goods all year round and are run over by bullock carts and horse carriages.

After all, there is solid land more than a foot wide.

Li Xiuzhu has excellent physical fitness, and the bicycle is as stable as a child's toy in his hands.

So when we arrived at Qinjiazhuang, nothing unexpected happened.

What surprised Li Xiuzhu was that the taste in this village was not as good as in the city.

On the way here, Li Xiuzhu thought nature was refreshing, but when he arrived in the village, he discovered that all kinds of odors were present, not much better than in the capital.

Luckily it was winter, so the taste was just bland.

He missed the future a little bit. Although he lived in the haze every day, it didn't stink.

As soon as they entered the village, they met the villagers.

It's winter now, and the crops have been harvested. Farmers who have nothing to do besides eating and drinking often come out to bask in the sun and chat.

The moment they saw the two of them, all these people were stunned. Where did these handsome men and beauties come from?Such a refined person should not appear in their countryside.

But when they saw it was Qin Huairu carefully, they all took a breath.

Such a beautiful girl is actually Qin Huairu.

How did she come back with a man?

Wait, Qin Huairu is getting married?Married to the city?

Suddenly the young men felt heartbroken and the old men sighed.

Qin Huairu was the most beautiful flower in the surrounding villages, but now she was cut off by the people in the city.

Old ladies are also sorry that their sons are not lucky, but they are not as concerned as the men, and they even feel a lot more relieved.

After all, when such a beautiful fox married into his family, he still had to worry about whether this fox would seduce his old man's heart.

"Qin Huairu, is this your date? Your clothes look really nice."

Qin Huairu smiled proudly and introduced: "Sister-in-law Qiuhua, this is my man Li Xiuzhu, whom I married."

"I have negotiated a gift with the matchmaker before, and today I am here to give the gift to my family."

"I have 100 yuan, ten pounds of meat and white flour."

Qin Huairu introduced Li Xiuzhu ostentatiously, with a bright smile on her face.

Sure enough, everyone was shocked when they heard 100 yuan, especially the ten pounds of meat.

What is the concept of ten pounds of meat? It is usually enough for a family in a year.

"Huai Ru, you are so well married, right?"

"That's right, my man loves me. Look at the clothes I'm wearing. This coat is made of wool. It costs more than 100 yuan."
