The life of a villain in a courtyard

Chapter 69: Queuing to buy meat

"Uncle, please, Banggeng is just a child. What will happen if he doesn't go to school? You watched him grow up. You can't just ignore him now that he's in trouble."

"This is not easy to handle!"

Yan Fufugui saw that Qin Huairu came empty-handed and deliberately took it.

Yan Fugui is a good person in other aspects except that he is too stingy. He likes to calculate and take advantage of small things. If you want to ask him to do something, no matter how big or small, you will not get it if you go there empty-handed.

But Qin Huairu obviously did not understand what Yan Fugui meant. It was not her fault. In the past, Yi Zhonghai always helped to settle any problems in the Jia family. At that time, he was still the eldest master in the courtyard and had the final say. Naturally, Yan Fugui did not dare to disobey.

"How about this, I'll go to the school and ask for your boy, but I can't guarantee whether it will work or not."

"Thank you, Uncle!"

Yan Fugui was so annoyed by Bang Geng that he could only find an excuse to get her away.

It was obvious that he had no intention of talking to the principal about this. Not to mention that Qin Huairu came empty-handed, he would not care even if she did. He was just an ordinary elementary school teacher, not a leader, so how could he have such ability?

"Huai Ru, what do you want to talk to Old Yan about?"

Qin Huairu happened to run into Yi Zhonghai when she went out. He only dared to go out for a walk after dark as he was too much talked about by everyone to dare show up.

"Master."

"Don't call me uncle anymore. I'm not an uncle anymore. From now on, you can call me Uncle Yi, or Master."

Qin Huairu nodded after hearing this.

"Uncle Yi, I'm here to ask Second Uncle for help to use his connections to send Banggeng back to school to continue his studies."

"He agreed?"

"accepted."

"Then you must have given him a lot of things."

"No, I went there empty-handed."

Qin Huairu looked puzzled.

"He won't care if you don't take anything. You can go back tomorrow with something. I've dealt with Old Yan for so many years, and he's a man who won't do anything until he sees the rabbit! He was probably just trying to fool you just now."

"okay, I get it."

The next day, Qin Huairu got up early while she had a rest. She had promised Banggeng to buy him meat yesterday, so she had to queue up to buy meat.

"Aunt Cui, you got up early enough."

"The old lady in the hospital keeps asking for meat every day. I got up early today and planned to buy some meat."

"What a coincidence! I'm also planning to buy some meat for our Bang Geng. Let's go together."

"Okay."

So the two of them went to the market to buy meat.

When they arrived at the market, they found that there were already quite a few people standing in front of the stalls, all of whom had come early to buy meat.

Supplies are scarce now, and the amount of meat available in the market is limited every day. If you come late, it will be snatched away by others.

"Huai Ru, you stand in this team, I'll go to that team."

There are many meat stalls in the vegetable market, but only one stall sells meat every day. Those who buy meat can only gamble their luck like opening a blind box. If they gamble right, they can buy meat and take it home. If they lose, they go back empty-handed.

Soon the butcher came slowly from behind, holding an abacus and a box for money. Behind him were two young men carrying a slab of pork. There were at least a hundred people queuing in the market, and it seemed that many people would go back empty-handed today.

When they saw the pork, everyone rushed forward.

"Go to the back and don't cut in line!"

"Uncle, you go behind, auntie, you go behind too, you guys have messed up the team!"

Every time they buy pork, their chances of buying it decreases, and the market soon becomes chaotic.

"Are you going to buy it or not? You guys have messed up the team! If you don't buy it, I'll leave."

Seeing that the scene was becoming more and more chaotic, the uncle selling meat simply took his products to another stall and stopped selling them here, so those who had cut in line were left with nothing.

"Huai Ru, I'll give you the ticket, go buy the meat."

Qin Huairu happened to be in the queue, so Aunt Cui gave her the money and ticket and asked her to help buy meat.

"How many pounds do you want?"

"Two pounds."

As the amount of pork on the stall became less and less, the people still queuing became more and more anxious.

"How much do you want?"

After waiting for almost an hour, it was finally Qin Huairu's turn.

"I want two pounds!"

The butcher looked at the piece of pork belly in his hand and said, "If you want this piece of pork belly, you have to buy another pound of fan bones."

There is not much meat on the fan bones, and it is basically lean meat, which is not popular. In order to sell them, these people will treat these places with less meat as concessions. If you don't buy them, don't even think about the good places.

"this!"

Qin Huairu looked at Aunt Cui. She didn't have enough money.

"Huai Ru bought it!"

The deaf old lady had a broken bone and the doctor said she needed calcium supplements, so I gave her these fan bones to eat to help her supplement her calcium.

"take it."

The salesperson threw three pounds of meat at me. If this kind of service attitude happened in later times, people would definitely be beaten.

"Bang Geng, Mom bought some meat and is going to cook for you today."

Qin Huairu pushed open the door and saw Banggeng beating locust flowers.

This morning, after getting up, Banggeng went out to the toilet and met the kids he had offended before. These people surrounded Banggeng and called him a bad guy and a criminal. Huaihua was young and thought it was interesting so she joined in and taught them to do so. Then she was beaten up by Banggeng.

"Bang Geng, what are you doing? That's your sister, let go!"

Qin Huairu pushed Bang Geng away and hugged Huaihua and kept coaxing her.
