Chapter 77 The captain’s wife comes to make trouble(1/2)
Carpenter Liu covered his head and said "bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah!" "What are you talking about? It's not fun to talk nonsense."
Mother Liu glared at him and stopped talking.
Carpenter Liu clicked his tongue and sighed, "You just can't recognize the reality. Think about it, Xue Zhiqing is from the city. How can a city person like a rural person?"
Nowadays, the urban household registration is very tight, and who doesn’t want to crawl out alone? But do you think those city people look down on rural people? You look down on them.
Even if you don’t say anything on the surface, you are still repulsive in your heart. These days when you are not in the right family, there are many sufferings.”
Carpenter Liu started smoking again and reasoned, "When you get married, it's best if you are from the same family. Only in this way can you live a happy life. You women, all of you have long hair and short knowledge."
Liu Mingyuan: "..." He was speechless. He was not a womanizer.
However, his father's words also made him sober up a lot. In terms of family background, he is really not as good as Xue Ning, and the gap between them is not as big as usual.
In his eyes, there really is no man worthy of Xue Ning.
Since this is the case, Mu Cheng is even less worthy.
Mu Chenghe will definitely not be able to marry Xue Ning. Even if they can fall in love now, it will be very difficult for them to get together in the end.
Hum, Mu Chenghe is the broom star, Xue Ning is just overwhelmed by love now, when she wakes up, she will definitely turn around and leave without hesitation.
When the time comes, even if Mu Chenghe cries like a dog, he will not sympathize with her.
Liu Mingyuan's unrequited love that had just begun ended like this, and he still had to be sad for a long time.
The days passed by, and in a blink of an eye it was Sunday again.
Muchenghe has been running up the mountain these days, and Xue Ning rarely sees his people.
She had the illusion that she had less time to see each other since she was in a relationship.
On Sunday, Muchenghe went up the mountain again early in the morning.
Not long after he left, there was a loud noise at the door of the courtyard.
"Mu Chenghe, come out here. If you don't speak clearly today, I won't be done with your family."
Mu Chenghe was no longer at home, Mu Yu had gone out to play, and Mu's father was the only one left at home.
When Mu's father heard the sound, he quickly got out of bed, slowly opened the door and walked out.
At the entrance of the hospital, the captain's wife was making trouble.
"What's going on here?"
When Mu's father walked into the yard, the captain's wife rushed in, holding a bag of flour in her hand.
"I said your family is really good at calculating. You even took advantage of my family when I was not at home. Do you think I am easy to bully? Are you crazy because of your poverty?"
Mu's father looked very unhappy. With a straight face, he asked in a deep voice, "I don't know what you are talking about. Why did our family take advantage of your family?"
The captain's wife put her hands on her hips and looked like a scolding bitch.
"Don't pretend to be confused here. Your Muchenghe used such a small amount of flour to exchange a pound of brown sugar for us. How could you do such a thing?"
She went back to her parents' home because something happened a few days ago.
When he came back, he found that the brown sugar was missing, so he twisted the man's ears and questioned him.
The captain then talked about Muchenghe's exchange for brown sugar.
The captain's wife immediately quit her job, took a few kilograms of flour that Mu Chenghe gave to her family, and went to Mu's house to cause trouble.
Mu's father frowned. How come he didn't know that Mu Chenghe had changed the brown sugar? He had never heard of it!
The captain's wife continued to scold, "I don't care, we won't change this thing. Please return the pound of brown sugar to me quickly, I don't want your flour. Humph, who doesn't know that brown sugar is expensive and hard to buy now? You guys really
It’s shameless to exchange such a small thing for it.”
Mu's father's face turned green and red after being said, and he felt very embarrassed. Many villagers outside the yard rushed over to watch the fun, which made him feel even more embarrassed.
"My Chenghe is not at home. I will ask him when he comes back."
"I don't have time to waste time with you. Come and change it for me quickly. You won't have eaten all the brown sugar!"
"I've never seen any brown sugar, so I don't know."
The captain's wife definitely disagreed with this answer. She laughed so hard that she rolled her eyes and shouted to the people watching the fun outside the hospital.
"Look at the people in this family! They exchanged such a small amount of flour for a pound of brown sugar. This is not taking advantage, but I am surprised. This family is too poor to open the pot, and they still want to exchange it for brown sugar.
, Sure enough, a lazy man’s family will only become poorer and poorer if there is no surplus food!”
Those watching the excitement were those who looked down upon the Mu family and Mu Chenghe.
They were all laughing crazily.
Mu's father would easily avoid quarreling with women, but today he was really angry.
"Zhang Xiaolan, your words are too unpleasant. I told you that I don't know what brown sugar is. We have to wait until my son comes back to discuss this matter. Why are you so cruel and unreasonable?"
"You are taking advantage of my family, why can't I be unreasonable? It's not wrong for me to want the brown sugar back. If you can't give me the brown sugar today, it's okay. Just give me three more kilograms of flour and I won't care about it."
"Auntie, aren't you even more unreasonable?"
Xue Ning squeezed into the courtyard from the crowd, walked to the captain's wife, and looked at her with a sneer.
Then she looked at the flour in her hand.
"You said that the Mu family took advantage of you, then let me help you prove whether this flour is worth a pound of brown sugar. Auntie, I happen to have a scale, I will help you weigh it and you can see if it works, and let everyone take a look at it.
Is it a good deal or not?"
The captain's wife had a cold face and looked at Xue Ning warily.
I don't know if she has good intentions or is trying to make trouble.
After thinking about it, she handed the flour to Xue Ning. After all, with so many people watching, she couldn't help but give it to her.
"Then just weigh me! I won't accuse them unjustly anyway."
Xue Ning took the flour bag, hooked it in front of everyone, and weighed it for everyone to see.
"Well, very good. No more, no less, 5 pounds and 2 taels. Auntie, this flour is enough to exchange for one pound of brown sugar! In the current market, a pound of ordinary flour can be sold for 2 cents, but this flour is obviously refined grain.
, there is almost no gravel or chaff inside. Flour of this quality can be sold for 3 cents to 4 cents!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As for brown sugar, the best one only costs one yuan per pound, one pound of brown sugar costs one dollar, and five pounds of fine flour can be bought for one to five yuan to two yuan.
After all, the Mu family is still loyal, so I gave you more!
And Aunt, forget about your bad attitude just now, you still want to ask for three more kilograms of flour, what are you doing to take advantage? Aunt, you are unreasonable this time, you have to apologize to Uncle Mu."
The captain's wife couldn't believe it. She looked at the number on the scale seriously and saw that it was really 5 pounds and 2 taels.
She didn't weigh the bag when she took it away from home. She subconsciously felt that Muchenghe was a cheater and would definitely not give too much flour.
Naturally, I didn’t pay close attention to the quality of the flour.
Who can believe that the Mu family has fine grains.
The food at her house is not as good as this.
The captain's wife immediately grabbed the flour from Xue Ning's hand and looked at Xue Ning fiercely.
This person is really here to make rice paste.
"How could there be fine grain in his house? I must have picked it up by mistake."
Mu's father explained speechlessly, "I have poor health. Chenghe was afraid that I wouldn't be able to eat grains that were full of pebbles and chaff, so he tried his best to buy fine grains for me to eat. I also have fine grain flour in the cupboard at home. If you don't believe it,
, just go and see for yourself.”
The captain's wife choked and felt a little embarrassed.
He said unreasonably, "I don't care anyway. Today you can either give me another three kilograms of grain or return the brown sugar."
At this time, the captain hurried over and whispered to his wife, "That's enough for you. Don't embarrass yourself here. I want to exchange this brown sugar for them. Go back quickly."
The captain is going to get his wife.
His wife was strong and strong, and she directly threw away the captain.
"What the hell, you coward took advantage of my mother's return to her parents' house to give things to outsiders. Are you still a man? We can't give our things to gangsters. Anyway, I just want brown sugar today. If I can't give it to you, I'll give it to you.
I won’t give up until I get three more kilograms of flour.”
The captain's temples were throbbing with anger, but there was nothing he could do to her.
"Auntie, the brown sugar you want is here."
Xue Ning took out a bag of brown sugar from his pocket and weighed it in front of the captain's wife.
"Auntie, just one pound of brown sugar, no more, no less."
Xue Ning handed the brown sugar to the captain's wife and said, "It's like this. I wasn't feeling well a few days ago, so I asked Mu Chenghe to help me change the brown sugar. I didn't expect you to react so much, auntie, so I definitely wouldn't dare to eat it.
I have no choice but to return the sugar to you. Auntie, I haven’t touched the brown sugar here at all, you have to check it."
Fortunately, she had some brown sugar at home before. She ate some of the brown sugar that Muchenghe gave her, so she added it with her own brown sugar, adding exactly one pound.
The captain's wife looked at Xue Ning strangely, then quickly opened the wrapping paper to check the brown sugar.
