Chapter 11 Conflicts intensify again
"What? What did you say? I can't hear you." Yang Mu looked deaf.
"You little bastard, pretending to be deaf and dumb is my special skill as an old lady. I didn't expect you to use it on me." The deaf lady knocked Yang Mu twice with a smile.
"Old lady, you should say this and just pretend to be deaf and dumb. My old lady is willing to call you the strongest." Yang Mu said with a smile, then looked at Lou Xiaomo and said: "Let's go home."
"Aunt Mo, I want to eat meat." Yan Jiedi said quickly.
"Okay, eat meat, eat meat." Lou Xiaomo led Yan Jiedi back home and prepared to cook some meat for Yan Jiedi.
"Momo, don't bother. I haven't finished the chicken that Damao gave me today. There's still a little left, enough for Jie Di to eat. Go over and heat it up." said the deaf old lady.
Lou Xiaomo immediately went to the deaf old lady's house, brought the remaining chicken and chicken soup and heated it up directly. After it was heated, Yan Jiedi was like a starving ghost reincarnated. She didn't care about burning it, picked up the chicken with chopsticks and put it in her mouth.
Li Sai, even though it was so hot that he breathed out, he couldn't bear to spit it out.
"How long has it been since you've eaten meat?" Lou Xiaomo was shocked.
"Mozhi, not all families can afford to eat meat as often as we do. The third uncle's salary seems to be high, but in fact it is not enough. He has to support three aunts, Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang and Yan Jiefei.
Yan Jiekuang and Yan Jiedi were young, and fortunately they didn't eat much. However, Yan Jiecheng was an adult and Yan Jiefang was a young man. The half-grown man would eat me to death. It was the time when they could eat. If the third uncle hadn't been so calculating, their family would have been long gone.
Just drink the northwest wind."
"It's good that Yan Jiedi can eat chicken once a year. This is also the reason why the third uncle, a teacher, insisted on selling popcorn even though he knew it was dangerous. He was afraid of poverty." Yang Mu explained to him.
Lou Xiaomo's background determined her horizons. She really didn't know that the lives of people at the bottom were so difficult.
"The third uncle's family is so poor, so we have to help them." Lou Xiaomo said.
"Aren't we helping? Look how happy the third uncle just laughed, his mouth almost reached the back of his ears. Today, I estimate optimistically that he can earn twenty-four yuan, which is more than half of his monthly salary."
Yang Mu said.
"Then Sister Qin's family must be in a difficult situation. I heard that only Sister Qin works, and she is only a second-level fitter. The salary is quite low, only twenty-seven and five yuan," Lou Xiaomo said.
"You're wrong. Your sister Qin's family really doesn't have any difficulties. You can eat oily and refined steamed buns every day, and you can also eat meat every now and then." Yang Mu said.
"How is this possible? Where did Sister Qin get the money?" Lou Xiaomo's eyes widened.
"How is it impossible? You, Sister Qin, have no money, but Shazhu has money. Don't forget Shazhu's profession. He is the chef behind the steel mill. Have you ever heard of a cook who starved to death? Shazhu
All the leftovers brought back every day go into the stomachs of your sister Qin's family. Do you think your sister Qin's family is in trouble?"
"Just now, your sister Qin was reluctant to take three and a half yuan, didn't she? She just didn't want to take it, so she asked Sha Zhu to borrow it. In the past few years, the money that Sha Zhu has advanced to your sister Qin's house has not been more than three dollars.
One hundred, it must be two hundred." Yang Mu said.
"Si Zhu likes Qin Huairu?" Lou Xiaomo's eyes were burning with the flame called Bagua.
"According to Comrade Shazhu, they have a pure neighborhood relationship." Yang Mu said with a smile.
"Then Silly Zhu is so stupid. What are you trying to do? Are you trying to get a good reputation?" Lou Xiaomo was puzzled.
"What are you after? Of course it's for your sister Qin's body. If you want to have a good reputation, why do you only bring food to your sister Qin's family and not to the people in the compound? People in the compound are more miserable than your sister Qin's family.
There are many." Yang Mu said with a smile.
"This stupid Zhu..." Lou Xiaomo was speechless.
"Cough! Cough!" The deaf old lady coughed beside her.
"Well, the old lady is not happy when we talk about Silly Zhu, so let's not talk about Silly Zhu. Let's talk about Qin Huairu and the third uncle. We will have a good show later." Yang Mu smiled happily.
"Is there anything good to watch?" Lou Xiaomo's eyes lit up.
"Yes, more than one." Yang Mu smiled even more happily, and Lou Xiaomo's eyes brightened even more. Lou Xiaomo couldn't wait to have such a good show on.
When Yan Jiedi was so full that she couldn't eat anymore, and Lou Xiaomo was about to pack up, Qin Huairu burst in excitedly.
"Brother Damao, prepare fifty packs of popcorn for sister." Qin Huairu said excitedly.
"Sister Qin, are they sold out? Do you still want to go to the cinema to sell them?" Yang Mu asked with a smile.
"Well, it's sold out. I won't go to the cinema to sell it, and there's no third show. I'm going to go to the pigeon market in the early morning to sell it." Qin Huairu said excitedly.
"Sister Qin, I'm not trying to hit you. I don't think you can sell so much in Pigeon Market. There are two reasons. First, Pigeon Market is not like a movie theater. The crowd is different. Pigeon Market is full of aunties. A penny would make them break into eight pieces.
Flowers and popcorn are just for children to have a taste of, unlike the young people in the movie theater who are so open-minded."
"The second reason is that the third uncle, Sister Qin, do you think the third uncle will not go? Don't forget that the third uncle's whole family is going to the battle, and you are just alone." Yang Mu said.
"Then Damao, what do you think we should do?" Qin Huairu also woke up from the excitement.
"Thirty packs," Yang Mu said.
"Okay, sister, I will listen to you and prepare thirty bags for my sister. Thirty bags cost two yuan and ten cents in total. My money is not as rich as the third uncle's, so Damao will charge me two yuan." Qin Huairu said, after finishing her words.
He handed Yang Mu two dollars directly.
"Sister Qin, you are really good at finding every opportunity. You want to take advantage of everything. When your upper lip touches your lower lip, you save a dime. A dime can buy more than a pound of stick noodles, enough for a family of five.
It will last two days." Yang Mu shook his head and said.
"Sister knows Damao is generous, so it's settled. I won't let you give away this dime for nothing. I'll help you clean up the house." After Qin Huairu finished speaking, she took the apron from Lou Xiaomo and started to help Lou.
Xiaomo washed the pots, dishes, and tables, and also cleaned up the house.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Well, for the sake of Sister Qin helping Mozi with housework, I will let you get this cent. I won't do it again. By the way, where is the third uncle?"
Yang Mu asked.
"The third uncle still has some unsold popcorn in his hand and wants to sell it before the show is over," Qin Huairu said.
Yang Mu thought to himself: "Sure enough, it's starting to get involved."
"Sister Qin, you'd better go home and talk to your evil mother-in-law. Your evil mother-in-law beat Yan Jiedi, and the third uncle will not let it go," Yang Mu said.
"It's not our fault, it's the third uncle's fault. If the third uncle didn't let Yan Jiedi stop me from going to the cinema, how could my mother-in-law beat her?" Qin Huairu said.
"Sister Qin, don't you understand? The incident of your evil mother-in-law beating up Yan Jiedi is just a superficial thing. The real conflict between your two families is to grab business. The third uncle will definitely hold on to the matter of your evil mother-in-law beating Yan Jiedi. Why don't you still
Go back and discuss countermeasures with your evil mother-in-law. Don't worry, I will inform you after you make these thirty bags." Yang Mu said.
Qin Huairu thought about it, quickly took off her apron, and returned to her home to discuss countermeasures with Jia Zhang.
"How come Sister Qin is selling out so quickly, but Uncle San can't sell out all the items?" Lou Xiaomo asked.
"Mozhi, if you want to buy popcorn, one family is a romantic widow, and the other is a dry old man, which one will you choose?" Yang Mu asked back.
Lou Xiaomo blinked.
"Although your sister Qin covered her nose and mouth with a scarf when she was selling popcorn, her big and seductive eyes would have attracted even a man's soul. In addition, your sister Qin is good at speaking.
Debian, do you think the third uncle can outsell her?"
"Moth, it's a good thing that the third uncle sold out all the popcorn today. If he can't sell out, there will be more leftover, and the night will be more lively." Yang Mu said with a smile.
Lou Xiaomo nodded, destroying someone's wealth is like killing one's parents, especially the third uncle's family, which regards money as their life. If Qin Huairu takes away the business and makes him unable to make money, it would be strange for the third uncle's family not to fight for Qin Huairu.
.
"It's really going to be lively tonight." Lou Xiaomo said expectantly.
