He Jingnian's repeated missed shots made the already poor family's situation even worse.
But who can blame the child for being innocent?
He Jingnian was holding the consolation prize given by the stall, a small car, and was showing off his feat of throwing rings in the car.
Little did they know how complicated the feelings of the three adults around him were after they found out how much it cost to put on the ring.
"...Although I didn't catch any of the traps, the stall owner was so kind and gave me a small car!" He Jingnian gleefully held the car, which was no bigger than his palm, in his hand and announced excitedly, "I'm going to come here again at the next market!"
"Goodbye, goodbye." He Xuebin quickly shook his head. "You guys bankrupted us once. If you do it again, I'm afraid we'll be forced to do hard labor somewhere."
"If I do hard labor, then I can play ring toss every day!"
He Xuebin put one hand on He Jingnian's head and rubbed it: "Still playing ring toss every day? You're dreaming."
"Ahhh, stop rubbing my hair, it's all messed up."
"What's the matter? You guys spent so much money, and I'm just rubbing my head and you won't let me go?"
"Who spent your money? We clearly spent the program team's money!" He Jingnian argued cunningly.
"You're still spending the production team's money. Who told you it was the production team who spent it?"
"That's what Village Chief Zhang said."
"Isn't it?"
He Xuebin looked at these little guys and sighed deeply: "You little bastards, you were all fooled by him."
"ah?"
"Cheated?"
"All the money you spent at the market today was ours."
"But didn't Village Chief Zhang say that the production team would pay for it?"
"Yes, they paid the bill and asked us to pay." He Xuebin said this with gritted teeth.
"Village Chief Zhang is so mean!" Song Tiantian's face puffed up with anger. "How could he lie to a child?"
Zhang Bosong sat happily in the car behind him, counting the money while looking at the IOU written by Fang Xiuzhu and the others: "What's wrong with lying to children? It's easier to lie to children. How can adults be happier than lying to children?"
This time at the market, Lu Chuanbei and his companions not only owed a lot of debts, but also got a large color TV, a three-headed bear, a bunch of other toys, and a lot of food.
Fortunately, they remembered to buy food, otherwise when they returned to Beiyang Village, they would not have the money to sell food at the supply and marketing cooperative.
After returning home and eating some food brought back from the market, Lu Chuanbei and the others had to go on the task of repaying their debts.
That’s right, the IOUs they wrote were not to pay back the money, but to complete tasks to pay off the debt.
Zhang Bosong, holding the IOU, proudly came to the Grape Courtyard and assigned Fang Xiuzhu and the others a task for the afternoon: "Your task this afternoon is to go fishing in the fish pond."
"Fishing?" Song Tiantian's eyes lit up.
He Jingnian on the side excitedly raised his hand and asked Zhang Bosong, "Uncle Village Chief, are we going to the creek to fish?"
"No." Zhang Bosong smiled and said, "The place we are going to fish this time is in the fish pond behind the village."
"Fish pond, there must be a lot of fish there."
"Yes, there are a lot of fish in the pond, but how many you can catch depends on your skills." As he said that, Zhang Bosong asked the staff to bring the fishing tools.
"Come on, each of you will have a fishing rod and a bucket. Fill the bucket with the fish you catch, and it will be worth 100 yuan. The more fish you catch, the more money you will get. Isn't that a good deal?"
Fang Xiuzhu looked at the bucket in front of him and couldn't help but chuckle: "You guys are really generous."
"That's right." He was really out of breath when he heard someone say he was fat. He came up to Zhang Bosong and said to them proudly, "We are a humanistic program. This point..."
He Xuebin, unable to bear it any longer, quickly interrupted him and said, "Aren't you going fishing? Let's go."
"I know where the fish pond is. I'll take you there." Lu Chuanbei picked up the bucket and led the way forward.
Fang Xiuzhu held a little kid in one hand and said, "Come on, Tiantian Nannan, let's go fishing."
He Xuebin even picked up He Jingnian and followed him forward.
Zhang Bosong looked at the yard that was suddenly empty, shrugged indifferently, and followed.
The fish pond is located in the back mountain of Beiyang Village, and it is home to some common freshwater fish such as silver carp, grass carp and crucian carp.
Lu Chuanbei put down the bucket: "It's here."
"What a big fish pond! I wonder if there are any fish." He Xuebin had just finished speaking when ripples appeared in the pond. "Yes, yes, yes, I saw some!"
He Xuebin shouted excitedly, then put his son down from his arms: "Xiao Lu, give me a fishing rod."
Lu Chuanbei took out a cigarette and gave it to him.
He Xuebin hurriedly took the fishing rod and was about to cast it out.
"Wait, you haven't put up the bait yet."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where's the bait? Where's the bait and the hook?"
"The hook is here, but there's no bait."
"No bait?" He Xuebin was a little dumbfounded: "How can I fish without bait?"
"Dig for earthworms." Fang Xiuzhu gestured towards the black mud beside the fish pond. "There should be quite a few in this fertile ground."
He Xuebin looked at him stiffly: "Digging earthworms?"
"What else?" Fang Xiuzhu looked at Zhang Bosong who had followed him. "Are you still counting on him to give you bait?"
He Xuebin: ...
"I'll dig it, I'll dig it." Song Tiantian volunteered and raised her hand. "I know how to dig earthworms!"
"Really?" He Jingnian looked at her with shining eyes: "Tiantian, can you dig earthworms?"
"Yeah, I often dig at home." Song Tiantian said, found a stick on the ground, squatted down and started digging.
The land beside the fish pond is particularly fertile and is also the favorite place for earthworms.
Just then, before Song Tiantian had dug a few times, a big, fat, purple-red earthworm was dug out.
"Wow, what a big earthworm!" He Jingnian, who had never seen an earthworm before, excitedly picked up the earthworm and showed it off to He Xuebin, "Dad, look! Tiantian dug up a huge earthworm!"
"No, no, no... don't come over here." He Xuebin stepped back repeatedly.
"Why?" He Jingnian took a few steps forward.
He Xuebin looked at the earthworm that was still moving in He Jingnian's hand. He shuddered and took a few steps back: "Ahhh, it's still moving, it's still alive..."
"Crash"
"puff"
He Xuebin, who fell into the fish pond, wiped his face and shouted at his son standing at the edge of the pond: "Don't move, just stand there and don't come over!"
He Jingnian stared dumbfoundedly at He Xuebin in the fish pond, then glanced at the earthworm in his hand: "Then, what about this?"
"I don't need it." He Xuebin said repeatedly: "I don't use bait, I catch fish directly in the pond, directly!"
As he spoke, he started fishing in the pond.
Everything went "very" smoothly in the fish pond. On the other hand, the refund activity at the Song Family Pharmacy was also carried out very quickly.
Whether online or offline, many people who have bought medicine at Songjia Pharmacy quickly processed refunds with the idea of taking advantage of the free lunch.
A small internet celebrity even mocked Song Jiaqi and others during a live broadcast, saying that Song Family Pharmacy would probably go bankrupt after suffering losses this time.
Hearing this, there was a burst of laughter from the side.
"That's right. After losing so much money this time, I guess this pharmacy can't continue to operate."
"Of course!"
"So I say, if you need medical treatment, go to the hospital. Why come to a Chinese medicine pharmacy? And one that's been targeted by the Food and Drug Administration?"
"However, fortunately, the Food and Drug Administration broke the news, otherwise we would have really been deceived by this pharmacy."
"I will never buy medicine from this internet-famous pharmacy again."
"Of course. After this incident, who would dare to come here to buy medicine?"
"This is hilarious! Look at the official website of the Song Family Pharmacy. There's even a blacklist app!"
"Blacklist app? What the hell is that?"
"Let me see."
"Blacklist app. Anyone who is recorded will be banned from purchasing the drugs from the Song Family Pharmacy for the rest of their lives."
“Is this app meant to be funny?”
"How dare the Song Family Pharmacy be so arrogant? They even banned me from buying medicine from your pharmacy for the rest of my life. Do they really think your products are some kind of delicious bun?"
"Don't worry, from now on, I won't buy anything from your family even if you beg me. Of course, this situation won't happen. After all, your family is going bankrupt."
As soon as the words fell, someone in the crowd stared at their phone in amazement. After a long while, they reacted and shouted, "Look, it's the City A Drug Administration @Song Family Pharmacy!"
"What? The Food and Drug Administration is @Song Family Pharmacy? Are they going to take action against the Song Family Pharmacy?"
"Wow, the Food and Drug Administration is really quick!"
"No, I quickly called my best friend and asked her to get the refund as soon as possible, otherwise it will be impossible to get it once the Food and Drug Administration shuts them down."
"Yes, yes, I'll go and inform them too..."
"Don't notify them, the Food and Drug Administration has clarified it for them."
"What?"
"clarify?"
"Well, the Food and Drug Administration issued a clarification announcement, and also published the test report of the Five Black Pills. It's on it... on it..." The person who spoke was speechless for a long time, looking at the announcement in his hand.
The people nearby hurriedly looked at their phones, and when they saw the drug administration's praise for the Wuhei Pills, they were stunned.
"So... Gokuimaru is okay?"
"Is there any problem with the Song Family Pharmacy?"
"Ahhhh...then I just returned the medicine!"
Amidst the wailing, Feng Huohuo looked proudly at the comments in the live broadcast room: "Well, I told you that the medicine from the Song Family Pharmacy is fine."
Fans looked at the fuzzy stubble on Feng Huohuo's forehead, and after reading the announcement from the Drug Administration, they went crazy...
