After finishing his meal, Li Qinghe was strolling in the yard when he saw Banggeng walking quickly towards the backyard with his head lowered and bedding in his hands.
Li Qinghe was too lazy to pay attention to him, pretending not to see him and continued strolling around.
Coincidentally, He Yuzhu was walking towards them in small steps.
"Qinghe, I was just about to look for you."
"What's wrong?"
He Yuzhu looked around, pulled He Yuzhu to the corner, and asked mysteriously: "I heard that you bought a TV, is it some color?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
His family had bought the TV a while ago. They had bought it when the Lou family came back from Gangcheng. It was the first batch from the factory, but it was placed in the small Western-style building.
Just because I will be living in Siheyuan and I feel it is too boring here, so I bought another one and put it here.
He Yuzhu asked quietly: "How much did you buy this TV?"
"You want to buy it?" Li Qinghe looked at him in surprise.
It's not that he looks down on him, but he still has some idea of how much money the other person has in his pocket.
"That's right. Otherwise, no matter what I ask, just tell me how much it costs." He Yuzhu urged.
Li Qinghe laughed and made a two gesture.
"Two hundred? That cheap? It's about the same as Uncle Three's. Come on, I'll buy one in a couple of days."
Li Qinghe shook the number two in his hand.
He Yuzhu's heart trembled immediately, and he asked in surprise: "You didn't mean two thousand?"
"Specify it, otherwise what do you think? Two hundred is just for a shell."
"Are you robbing me?!" He Yuzhu jumped up immediately. "It's just a TV. Others sell it for more than 200 yuan. Why is it so expensive in yours?! We have been neighbors for so many years..."
"Hey, stop it." Li Qinghe rolled his eyes. "The prices are clearly marked in the mall. If you want to buy it, just go and have a look. I'm not selling TVs. Why are you talking to me about neighbors?
"Besides, the quantity there is limited. You can't buy it whenever you want. If you're unlucky, you'll have to queue up. If you want to buy it, hurry up. Come on, I have other things to do. I don't have time to waste with you."
He Yuzhu didn't come to his senses until Li Qinghe left.
"Two thousand? That's enough for my annual salary."
Although he has been promoted to canteen director, his salary has only been raised by one level. Although his salary is higher now, prices are also more expensive. Now he can only make a little over 200 yuan a month.
If he wanted to save two thousand, he would have to go without food and drink for a year. But don't forget that he has three children in the Jia family to support, and his salary is collected by Qin Huairu on his behalf, and is controlled by her.
If he said he wanted to spend two thousand to buy a TV, Qin Huairu would be furious.
For her, this money is for Banggeng to marry a wife.
If He Yuzhu wanted to buy a TV, he could only take private jobs and save money bit by bit.
When he walked to the door of his house in a daze, Qin Huairu happened to come looking for him. Hearing the muttering, she asked in confusion, "What three thousand?"
"Ah?" He Yuzhu came back to his senses and shook his head quickly, "Nothing, nothing, what's wrong? Do you want to talk to me about something?"
"Of course, it's good, very good news! Didn't you bring back pork liver and sausages? Let Banggeng eat them! He finally eats your food!" Qin Huairu was so excited that she could hardly control herself.
A neighbor who was passing by the middle courtyard on his way home stumbled and almost fell when he heard Qin Huairu's words.
What did you hear?!
Banggeng ate He Yuzhu's food, and Qin Huairu was so excited. Is it a good thing?
What kind of weird logic is this?
So you have to beg for food? Can you beg for food so confidently?!
He looked at He Yuzhu with an incredible look, wanting to see his reaction.
Then something even more astonishing happened. This idiot was actually extremely happy and was grinning with his teeth bared!
The neighbor felt that his three views were challenged.
......
In the evening, Li Qinghe came back from outside carrying a big bag.
"Qinghe, what are you carrying?" Yan Bugui, who was enjoying the cool air, asked curiously.
"Hey, didn't my father-in-law call me this afternoon and say he missed his daughter? I'll take Qiunan to see them tomorrow, so I can buy some things to bring back. Okay, Uncle, take a rest. I'll be home first."
As soon as Li Qinghe left, Yan Bugui's face darkened and he lost the mood to enjoy the cool air. He threw down his fan and went back to the house.
The third aunt was mending clothes. Seeing that he looked unhappy, she asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Yan Bugui said nothing, and hummed, "How long has it been since Jie Di came back?"
"If you count the days, it's been about a month, what's going on?"
"What else?!" Yan Bugui sat down and said angrily, "Didn't you see it just now? Li Qinghe's father-in-law said he missed his daughter, so he immediately bought a big bag of things and planned to bring them to her tomorrow. Look at our family, every time he comes, let alone bring anything, it's good enough if he doesn't take something back!"
Looking at other people's son-in-law and then thinking about his own, how could Yan Bugui feel balanced?
"Okay, you know Li Qinghe's personality." The third aunt didn't know what to say. After all, this was the truth, so she could only comfort him, "He has the means, so it's reasonable to buy some things and send them to him. But our son-in-law can't even take care of his own family, so how can he have the energy to take care of us?"
It would have been fine if he hadn't said it, but once he did, Yan Bugui got even angrier.
"I told her at the beginning that this guy was no good, but she still fell for him. Now, what kind of life is she leading? It's even worse than when she was at home!
"Look at her when she came back. She complained to us as soon as she walked in. I don't know what she was thinking. She just wanted to get something from us to take back."
The third aunt was also uncomfortable with what she said, but she couldn't say anything. After all, she was her daughter, so she advised: "Okay, stop talking."
Yan Bugui poured a glass of water and drank it in one gulp. "If I could find a son-in-law like Li Qinghe, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."
......
Li Qinghe finished his stroll and was about to go back to watch TV and study new knowledge with his wife. As soon as he walked to the front yard, a child bumped into him.
But with his two moves, there was no way he could be a match for Li Qinghe, who grabbed him.
When I turned around, I saw that it was the boy from Xu Damao's family.
"Hey Dali, why are you so flustered?"
"Uncle Li, let me go, I want to buy something to eat!" Xu Dali kept struggling to break free from Li Qinghe's hand.
He was still somewhat polite towards Li Qinghe, or rather, no one in the yard was rude to Li Qinghe. After all, his status was there and no one dared to offend him.
"Okay, go ahead. Be more careful next time."
Li Qinghe didn't care and just let go.
As soon as I let go, the kid jumped out.
"This kid." Li Qinghe shook his head and laughed.
"Stop right there, you little bastard!"
Sun Xia ran out from the backyard shouting, with a broom in her hand.
"What's going on?" Li Qinghe asked curiously.
When she saw Li Qinghe, Sun Xia stopped and had a complicated look on her face.
