Aunt Liu and Zhao Fang were also laughing at the counter. Li Laifu expressed deep sympathy for Old Man Qiao. The leader was a coward when he was in his position. There was no way a monkey could add a muscle to its missing string. Who could offend him? ?
"Laifu, director Aunt Zhao, come out quickly," Qian Erbao shouted.
Director Qiao and Li Laifu happened to be in the lobby of the supply and marketing cooperative and walked out in two steps.
Old man Qiao asked humorously: "What's wrong? The monkey has climbed up the tree, and you can't catch him?"
No wonder Old Man Qiao asked, Qian Erbao was standing alone at the door, and indeed he didn't see the monkey man.
"Director, look over there," Qian Erbao pointed.
On the other side of the hutong entrance of Nanluoguxiang, there was already a queue in front of the state-owned hotel, and the monkey was talking to the hotel waiter.
Qian Erbao said happily: "The state-owned restaurant has braised pork today."
Since the restriction of pork, ordinary people have been thinking of ways to get meat from various channels. Although state-owned restaurants are a bit expensive, the food tastes delicious, and it is really not that expensive. Gradually, state-owned restaurants don’t often have meat. People It's not stupid to leave the meat tickets at home. It's useless if you can't buy meat. It's better to buy a piece of braised pork in a state-owned restaurant and eat a few serious meals at home.
Old man Qiao turned around and walked to the office, saying, "I'll lend you a pound of meat each and pay me back tomorrow."
He is the only one who works in an office and keeps meat tickets in his drawer. Who among these serious working people would bring meat tickets with them?
Li Laifu looked at the proficiency of these people and it was obviously not the first time.
Zhao Fang was about to say no, she had a lot of meat at home.
Li Laifu said first, "Auntie, I have two kilograms of meat coupons. Uncle Qiao, our family doesn't need to borrow them."
Aunt Liu skillfully took out six new lunch boxes. After hearing Li Laifu's words, she took another lunch box and put it on the table and said, "Let's use it first. Remember to wash it when we get it back tomorrow."
Looking at Zhao Fang's face, Li Laifu knew what she was going to say: "Auntie, everyone has bought it. I don't know when the state-owned restaurant will have meat next time."
"Yes!" Zhao Fang agreed, she now had absolute trust in Li Laifu.
Old man Qiao came out with the meat tickets and money. The two of them walked to the door and gave the money and meat tickets to Qian Erbao. The salespersons in this era were still awesome. Qian Erbao walked over with the meat tickets and lunch box and handed them directly to the waiter. He was stunned. No one dared to accuse him of cutting in line.
Li Laifu sighed secretly. In this age, the word "fair" can only be said.
Old man Qiao didn't go back to the office, so he just watched from the door. In just a few minutes, Monkey had three lunch boxes and Qian Erbao had four. They had already finished the shopping.
Everyone in the supply and marketing cooperative had a smile on their face, and each one held a lunch box. Only Li Laifu held two. He opened the lunch box and took a look at the oily braised pork, and the soup was almost full. It was obviously Special care was given.
Li Xiaohong sniffed like a puppy and ran to Li Laifu, "Big brother... Xiangxiang."
Li Laifu sat on the steps at the door, opened a lunch box, and gave the little girl a piece.
"She is my sister after all. Look how good this Laifu is to my sister," Aunt Liu said.
The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. Zhao Fang was worried that others would misunderstand her. She stressed: "This child Laifu is sensible and good to my two boys. He takes them to eat meat and buys them steamed buns. My two boys are the first." The first time I wore new shoes was from Laifu."
Aunt Liu also felt that there was something wrong with what she just said. She nodded and said with a smile: "Laifu is like a little adult and is very kind and righteous."
Seeing that the little girl had already eaten three pieces, Zhao Fang shouted from the counter: "Okay, go to bed quickly."
The little girl didn't dare to act coquettishly like Zhao Fang, so she walked to the counter obediently. When the adult tried to lift the board and enter the counter, she couldn't hit her head, but she still bent over and walked in. It was funny to watch.
Li Laifu said to Zhao Fang: "Auntie, I'm going home to sleep. I'll give half of these two boxes of braised pork to Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Liu's family."
Zhao Fang nodded hurriedly and said: "Okay, okay,"
She knew that the two old people were not short of meat tickets, let alone money. A lonely old man had money but no place to spend it, while two workers in the same family earned money for her.
Is she worried about the weather now? I can’t hold back the meat. Eat two boxes of braised pork in one meal? She was reluctant to part with it, and it was too late for her to be happy that she could share it with others.
"Who is Grandpa Zhang?" Aunt Liu asked.
Zhao Fang said with a smile on her face: "The lonely old man in our hospital has Lai Fu talking to him all day long. Our family is very kind-hearted."
"Oh, Laifu is such a good boy."
Zhao Fang loved hearing what Aunt Liu said and immediately followed up: "Every neighbor in our courtyard talks about Laifuhao."
Li Laifu held two lunch boxes and was thinking about adding some mountain red sauce to the braised pork. Old man Zhang was quite arrogant in the morning.
Shanli brown sugar water put him in trouble last time. This time Shanli red juice plus braised pork? I guess Lao Zhang is worried to death, but he miscalculated. Why did you tell Grandma Liu just now? well! Consider Lao Zhangtou lucky.
After returning home and putting two lunch boxes on the table, Li Laifu went back to the hut to sleep and collected all the rice in the space. Now there are more than 4,000 kilograms of flour, and there is still 1,000 kilograms of flour for his own consumption, that is, without adding rice. of.
I planted another five acres of corn. I took a look at the 40 kilograms of cotton and 40 feet of cloth in the space. I will take them to my grandma for her to make cotton-padded jackets next time. I was just about to quit and go to bed when I suddenly felt something strange. There was actually something in the cotton pile. When he saw a cotton seed, there was no machine screening these days. It was all manual screening and it was inevitable that fish would slip through the net. He used the space to find 18 cotton seeds among 40 kilograms of cotton and planted them directly without even thinking about it.
I also ripened ten apple trees by the way, and then planted the seeds. The ten apple trees produced a little bit of cotton, but a lot of seeds were lost. I just used the space to dig out all five apple trees, leaving only one. Make room for cotton.
I fell asleep, sleeping soundly, when I felt someone slapped me on the face, and then someone yelled: "Little girl Pianzi, you ran into your elder brother's house again."
Then I felt a weight on my body, and when I opened my eyes, I saw the little girl looking at the door, giggling and lying on top of Li Laifu, "Are you looking for a beating? It won't work even if you can't see it for a while," Zhao Fang's voice came from the door. Come.
"Big brother, big brother," shouted Li Laifu, avoiding Zhao Fang's hand that wanted to spank her.
"Auntie, stop fighting, I'm awake," she said while holding the little girl.
The little girl put her arms around Li Laifu's neck, pointed out the window and said, "Three...brother."
Zhao Fang looked at Jiang Yuan who was peeking out of the window, and immediately understood and cursed: "Jiang Yuan, you bastard, how could she get on the bed?"
When the little girl saw Jiang Yuan running away, she smiled even more happily. Li Laifu looked at her appearance. She was not stupid at all, and she had learned to complain.
