Yan Bugui said that Zeng Wangcai committed sins, but in fact he had restrained himself. In his heart he was talking about a prodigal son.
"Uh..." Zeng Wangcai was stunned again.
I know that watermelon rind is edible, but I... really don't like eating it.
Zeng Wangcai looked at the watermelon rind, thought for a moment and said, "What a pity, the pigs are not here, otherwise it would be great for feeding the pigs."
It's not a waste to feed the pigs.
Yan Bugui coveted the watermelon rind but was too embarrassed to ask for it in front of so many people, so he ate the watermelon quickly, only eating a piece until there was no red left before putting it at his feet. It was obvious that he was ready to take it back.
After finishing one watermelon, Zeng Wangcai went to see the second one. At the same time, he changed the topic and talked about fish with Director Zhang and Section Chief Chen.
It's easier for Section Chief Chen, as she only has her own family and doesn't want much. Director Qian has more, as everyone in the street office will want some.
After the amount was agreed upon, the formalities were handed over to Director Qian.
"By the way, my family is slaughtering a pig on Sunday. If you want the meat, you guys can come over and get some." Zeng Wangcai said when Director Zhang was about to leave.
Killing a pig was part of his plan, as he also wanted to cook it. However, a pig weighing more than 400 pounds seemed a lot, and in reality he couldn't distribute it to everyone in the street office as he had done before.
Before he knew it, Zeng Wangcai's network of contacts had become very extensive.
"That's great, you're welcome, auntie." Director Zhang said with a smile, "To be honest, my family hasn't eaten meat for more than a month."
It's pitiful that a street office director with such great power hasn't had meat for a month at home. Ordinary people can imagine what's going on.
After Director Zhang left, Zhao Hongqing and the other two felt embarrassed to stay any longer, so they stood up and said goodbye.
After all the outsiders had left, Yan Bugui shamelessly asked for the watermelon rind.
Honestly speaking, Zeng Wangcai did not laugh at Yan Bugui who asked for watermelon rinds. For the first time, he felt that Yan Bugui was good at supporting his family. He could support a whole family with just one person's salary, and it was not shameful to ask for watermelon rinds in order to support his family.
"Uncle, I didn't eat well. Open another one. I didn't eat well either!" Zeng Wangcai gave all the watermelon rind to Yan Bugui and took the initiative to invite Yan Bugui to eat watermelon again as a way to thank him for taking the trouble to look for Zhang Xiuzhi today.
"Brother, let's go move the watermelons!" Xiaoqiang and Laifu volunteered. They both didn't eat well either.
After a while, another watermelon was brought in, but when the watermelon was half cut, Sha Zhu came back from get off work.
