Damn, this group is full of talents. Just now Xu Qiang was definitely thinking about not having to be scolded in the next meeting!
Li Ming cursed in his heart. Xu Qiang often said that he would be scolded whenever he was in a meeting. He had long muttered that if he had some connections, he would be fine. This time, he got his wish unilaterally.

The courtyard of the steel rolling mill.
When Li Ming and Li's father came back, they saw that Li's mother was already packing yesterday's cabbage. As for the potatoes and radishes, they had already been put away.
"Hurry up and help. Lao Li will go and clean the jar. My son, come over and help your sister pick the vegetable leaves."
"Go now!"
"I'm coming."
The father and son responded and began to help the queen mother at home tidy up.
"Mom, I won't come back for dinner tomorrow night. There will be a party in the dormitory."
Li Ming squatted next to Li's mother and helped choose the vegetables while talking about what would happen tomorrow night. Not to mention going on a blind date, that was for sure. If he dared to open this door today, there would be a lot of things waiting for Li Ming to deal with later. .
At that time, you will have to immerse yourself in the trend of blind dates and be unable to extricate yourself. Comrade Li Ming plans to be free for a few more years.
"Go, just come back early in the evening and drink less."
"Yeah, don't worry."
Neighbors in the yard are now packing up the cabbage they bought yesterday. If it is not pickled, it will not last long. Cabbage does not last as long as potatoes and radishes.
If there is any family that is not busy with this matter, it should be the Jia family in the middle courtyard, and by the way, there is also the old deaf man in the backyard.
The old deaf man was alone, eating and drinking Yizhonghai's food every day. Occasionally, I would improve the food from He Yuzhu, and my life was pretty good.
No, now he is standing on tiptoe helping Yi Zhonghai in the middle courtyard.
"Hey, old lady, why are you doing this? The two of us can take care of it." Yi Zhonghai looked at the old lady who was choosing vegetables with a smile.
The old lady ignored Yi Zhonghai, "Then if I'm here, you two can finish it earlier!"
"Don't worry about so many things. Hurry up and finish eating. I'll be hungry soon, old lady."
"Hey, I listen to you."
At least when it comes to supporting the deaf old lady, the old man and the old lady are on a united front. After all, they both covet the deaf old lady’s house and her reputation of supporting the orphaned old lady. If they take care of the old lady, they can win-win!
"Where's the pillar?"
"Zhuzi went to chop meat. I saw Zhuzi when he got off work. Today we helped Zhuzhu pickle cabbage and he cooked for us!"
Yi Zhonghai replied.
"The meat is good, old lady, I can satisfy my craving again." The deaf old lady has nothing but this mouth, which makes her greedy!
Hearing that we can eat meat at night makes the task of choosing vegetables much faster!
. . . . . .
"This little meat almost made me break my leg!" Everyone in the middle courtyard heard He Yuzhu before he entered the middle courtyard.
When He Yuzhu entered the middle courtyard, he saw the old lady in front of Yi Zhonghai's house. "The old lady is here! Just wait, I'm going to cook."
"Hey, grandson, let's go!" The deaf old lady looked at He Yuzhu and the pork in He Yuzhu's hands with a smile.
"It's hard to buy this kind of meat now. It's estimated that this pound of meat on Zhuzhu's hands has gone to many places."
The eldest mother is a conscientious person, and she is afraid that the deaf old lady didn't hear it just now, so she will repeat it to him again.
Front yard, Li's house.
Regardless of whether He Yuzhu's meat is difficult to buy, the Li family has a lot of meat anyway. He Yuzhu was so pretentious just now that he almost didn't make Li Ming laugh.
"It's time to eat!" Mother Li's voice sounded, and everyone else quickly dropped what they were doing and went inside, lining up to wash their hands.
. . . . . .
"I just went for a walk. The Jia family in our hospital is very busy, hehe." Comrade Li Weiguo was happy to see the Jia family in distress, and he even ate an extra Erhe noodle steamed bun tonight.
"You are so narrow-minded, don't pass it on to my son!" Mother Li mocked Old Li with a smile.
Lao Li didn't care either. His son was more narrow-minded than he was. Why should this be passed on?
"Their family can't count on cabbage this year. If that doesn't work, they can just eat tree bark. There are a lot of trees in the yard anyway."
"That's it, let the Jia family look for trouble, huh! They deserve it if they can't buy cabbage!"
Sister Li Rui also clearly knows that the Jia family is not a good thing, but the whole family is unanimous in telling the outside world.
Even if He Yuzhu occasionally came to talk to Li Rui recently, Li Rui had to deal with business matters. Before, when He Yuzhu didn't pick on his elder brother, the Li family treated He Yuzhu pretty well.
After all, He Yuzhu couldn't do anything about this idiot. Fortunately, He Yuzhu didn't offend the Li family, but now they have a rift with the Li family. Naturally, He Yuzhu is not very popular in the Li family.
Middle courtyard, Jia's house.
"Mom, I'll go to the street office tomorrow to ask when the winter vegetables will come next time, otherwise I'll always feel a little worried."
Qin Huairu, the only sensible person in the Jia family, has always felt that something is wrong outside recently. Sometimes she can't even buy all the food when she goes shopping, and she can't even buy all the rations in the food book in a hurry.
The Jia family only has Qin Huairu in charge of the family's expenses. It's somewhat too late to realize it until now.
Jia Zhang nodded, "Okay, you can go to the street office tomorrow and ask. It won't be a problem if it continues like this."
"My eldest grandson is growing tall, so he can't eat poorly."
The current Bangmei has not reached the point where people hate dogs and dogs at the beginning of the plot, but there are signs.
"Dongxu, please give me some more money. We don't have enough to buy groceries at home."
Jia Dongxu looked impatient, "Didn't you give it before? Why do you want it again? Wasn't it enough before?"
He asked three questions in a row, which almost made Qin Huairu angry, "Now that the price of everything to eat outside has increased, can I still lie to you?"
Qin Huairu also looked sad. Now let alone the increase in prices for groceries, he might not be able to buy them all even if the prices are increased.
"Okay, okay, here you go." After Jia Dongxu said that, he took out five yuan from his pocket and threw it to Qin Huairu, lit a cigarette for himself and climbed into bed.
The next day.
Every household in the courtyard went out to work, and Qin Huairu also tidied up after himself. He lifted his legs and went straight to the street office. He also met Li Ming on the way.
"Hey, Mingzi is going to work!" Qin Huairu blinked his seductive eyes and looked towards Li Ming.
Li Ming was walking smoothly on the road when he was almost startled by this sound. Damn it, a ghost came up halfway?
Turning around, he looked, oh, Qin Huairu, that's much more normal.
He could see Qin Huairu's nature when Jia Dongxu was alive. He would either seduce this one or tease that one with his eyes!
