"Comrade, if you don't want to buy it yourself, fine. But why are you stopping others from buying it?" The male salesperson slammed the meat-cutting knife on the chopping board in displeasure.
"Why don't I buy it?" the aunt muttered.
"Comrade, please weigh the meat for me quickly. I have something to do!" Shen Qingli ignored the aunt and urged the salesperson.
"You said I want to buy it, but do you understand the principle of first come first served?" the aunt said angrily.
The salesperson ignored the aunt and picked up the only piece of meat on the chopping board and threw it on the scale.
"It's two catties and three ounces in total!"
"Is the price of meat still the same as yesterday?" Shen Qingli asked as she took out the bill.
"Yes." The salesperson nodded. "The total is 1.79 and 4 cents. I'll give you a change and charge you 1.79 plus the meat coupons for 2.3 jin (approximately 2.5 kg)."
Shen Qingli counted the bills quickly and handed them to the salesperson.
The salesperson also quickly put the meat into the backpack handed over by Shen Qingxuan.
The two of them tacitly ignored the aunt the whole time.
After the payment was made, Shen Qingli pulled Shen Qingxuan, who had put the backpack on his back, and was about to leave.
The auntie took a step forward and stood in front of the two of them.
"You can't leave, the meat is mine!" the aunt said unreasonably.
"You're confused, right? I clearly bought this meat!" Shen Qingli said coldly.
"So what if it's you who bought it? I was the first one to see the meat!" The aunt was determined to be unreasonable to the end, so she walked up and grabbed Shen Qingxuan's backpack and refused to let go.
"Auntie, are you planning to rob us openly?" Shen Qingli looked at the auntie with a smile.
"Why are you robbing me openly? I'm giving you money!" The aunt said quickly because she was afraid of being charged with robbery.
"Not for sale!" Before Shen Qingli could speak, Shen Qingxuan directly spat out two words.
"Why don't you sell it to me, you blind man! I was the first one to see the meat!" the aunt said anxiously.
"Because the meat is in my hands now!" Shen Qingxuan said coldly.
"I advise you to get out of the way, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!" Shen Qingli became angry when she heard that the old woman actually called her second brother a blind bastard.
"Oh, I don't want to live anymore!" The old lady fell to the ground, rolling on the ground and crying, "Young people are bullying the elderly! Come and see!"
The aunt's crying attracted other people who were buying things in the supply and marketing cooperative.
Everyone ran over to eat the melon.
"It's outrageous! They even bully an old man!"
"Yes, people like this should be taken to the police station and given a good lesson!"
"Of course! We all get old one day."
No matter what era it is, I am weak but I am right.
Shen Qingli naturally would not let this old woman succeed.
She sobbed a few times, and two lines of tears hung on her face.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Auntie stole my meat and I shouldn't have refused to give it to her. It's just... wuwu..."
"Sister, stop crying!"
Shen Qingxuan found Shen Qingli by the sound of her voice, and patted her back gently, his voice choked with sobs.
"It's all my brother's fault. He refused to give the meat to Auntie. He just thought of my sick grandmother who only wanted to eat meat, so..."
"How pitiful!" said some onlookers with pity.
"Don't be fooled by that old comrade. She stood here for a long time without saying whether she wanted to buy meat or not. As soon as these two young comrades finished buying, she stopped them!" The male salesperson selling meat spoke up to support Shen Qingli and Shen Qingxuan.
"I see!"
"This is too unreasonable!"
"She's not making such a fuss because she wants to take advantage of these two young comrades for free, is she?"
“I feel like it!”
"Don't be afraid, my two little comrades. We are all on your side. Don't try to snatch your meat away today!"
“That’s right!”
The onlookers all came to support Shen Qingli and Shen Qingxuan.
"How did I get it for free?" The old lady rolled her eyes at everyone, "See? I have money!"
The aunt counted out one dollar and seventy-nine cents and threw it at Shen Qingli's feet.
"Give me the money and the meat!"
Everyone showed angry expressions when they saw the money she threw at Shen Qingli's feet.
This old woman is too bullying!
Shen Qingli clenched her fists, wanting to beat this old woman so hard that her children wouldn't recognize her.
but...
If she took action now, the trend that was originally in her favor would definitely turn to the old woman's favor.
Shen Qingxuan, who was standing by, also knew what had happened from the discussions of the crowd.
But he pretended to know nothing and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Sister, what happened?"
"This old comrade threw one yuan and seventy-nine cents at your sister's feet and asked her to give her the meat!" A kind-hearted person explained to Shen Qingxuan.
"Thrown it at my sister's feet?" Shen Qingxuan's face turned red instantly after hearing this, and he was obviously very angry.
He raised the guide stick in his hand and waved it at the aunt randomly.
He kept muttering, "Sister, it's all because of your useless brother that you were insulted like this! Even if I have to sacrifice my life today, I will seek justice for you."
The auntie sitting on the ground was hit directly in the face by the guide cane swung by Shen Qingxuan.
"Ouch!" the aunt cried out in pain, covering her face.
Shen Qingxuan ignored the aunt's cries of pain and continued waving his guide stick at her.
In fact, Shen Qingxuan had already determined the aunt's specific location through the sound.
So the guide stick hits wherever it points!
This is also the skill that Shen Qingxuan has acquired over the years of being blind.
Otherwise, how could I help Shen Qingyang with the work?
