Chapter 233: Shameful Liu Yanzhi
The old man is very old.
He took out three copper plates from his waist, and his hands were shaking uncontrollably.
In fact, if you want to take it for take-out, you have to pay an extra penny.
So it should be four.
It was obvious that it was his first time here and he didn't know he had to pay extra.
Jiang Fubao had no intention of telling him.
"Give it to me, grandpa, I'll buy it for you." She stretched out her hand.
The old man gently placed the copper plate in her palm.
The big hand was on it, tanned black, the skin was rough like the bark of a dead tree, with countless scars on it, blending into the old wrinkles and wrinkles, as if they could no longer be separated.
Under the big hand is Jiang Fubao’s small fleshy hand.
It is white and tender, like freshly peeled egg whites, or like lotus roots just dug out of a lotus pond in summer.
The two hands form a sharp contrast.
"Good boy, walk slowly and don't fall."
The old man instructed Jiang Fubao.
His eyes are full of love.
"Yeah, I understand." Jiang Fubao nodded heavily.
She stepped over the high threshold, and because her legs were too short, her little butt bumped into it.
Jiang Fubao covered his buttocks in pain and handed the copper plate in his hand to Jiang Dahe.
"Uncle, pack a cup of green bean soup for the old man at the door. Can you give him a penny off? He looks so pitiful."
Jiang Fubao looked at Jiang Dahe eagerly.
"Okay, uncle will go right away."
Jiang Dahe touched her head gently.
After taking the copper plate, he raised his foot and prepared to go to the backyard. At this moment, Liu Yanzhi followed and stopped Jiang Dahe.
When he came out again, Jiang Dahe not only had a cup of mung bean soup, but also ten skewers of meat and two meat cakes wrapped in leaves.
The old man didn't dare to answer it. He waved his hands repeatedly, and was so excited that he couldn't speak.
"Take it. It's not much. Take it back and feed it to your child. It's my apology for my rude words just now. If you don't accept it, I will feel uneasy."
Liu Yanzhi took the food from Jiang Dahe and stuffed it into the old man's hand.
He kept a low profile.
Mentioned children.
The old man finally picked up the phone.
After watching the old man leave.
Liu Yanzhi pulled Jiang Fubao aside and said, "My dear child, you don't blame your uncle, do you? Your uncle really knows that he was wrong, and he will never bully others again."
The child in front of me is only three years old, but his speech is very clever and he looks like a fairy.
It makes people feel good about it.
Liu Yanzhi apologized sincerely. He didn't want the child in front of him to dislike him.
"I don't blame you. Grandma said that those who admit their mistakes and can correct them are good children. Uncle is an adult, so you are also a good adult."
Jiang Fubao tilted his head and said sweetly.
"Hahaha, this child is so clever. If my wife could give me such a lovely daughter, I would be willing to take my life away."
An impulse arose in Liu Yanzhi's heart.
He really wanted to take the girl in front of him home and raise her.
The fiery look made Jiang Fubao feel uneasy.
She quickly slipped back to the backyard.
After so much time had passed, Yu Xingwang and his family had already left through the back door.
As soon as he got back, Jiang Fubao was picked up by his grandmother.
"I heard that our Fubao just did a good deed?" Zhang Jinlan asked with a smile.
"No, I just feel sorry for my grandpa. If I were his granddaughter and saw what happened just now, I would be very sad. So, grandma, I won't allow anyone to bully you."
Jiang Fubao hugged grandma's neck.
Rubbing her face.
"You are my good granddaughter, so filial. It seems that our Fubao is a good child. When you grow up, grandma will hand over the shop to our Fubao to run, okay?"
Zhang Jinlan's words seemed to be a joke, but in fact they were a wake-up call to everyone in the family.
Let them not think of taking over this shop.
After all, this shop can be opened thanks to the granddaughter.
They have become what they are today and have no worries about food and drink, so they should be content.
Later, when she earns more, she will buy some land and become a landlord.
The shop must definitely belong to the granddaughters.
Fortunately, no one in the Jiang family had any intention of taking over this shop.
It was like they didn't hear it.
Words are like the wind; they pass through our ears and are forgotten.
Everyone continued to work on the task at hand without raising their heads.
Delicious Laosun Pingmei, while kneading the dough, was thinking about what to eat in the evening.
What the mother-in-law said was not as important as the dough in front of her.
At this time, outside a dilapidated low house in Baihu Lane, Wanlu Street.
A brother and sister are working hard to wash clothes.
They both looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old.
But there is a thick layer of old silk on my hands.
"Erya, Shitou, grandpa is back. Look what good things I brought you."
As soon as Old Man Pan reached the end of the alley, he saw his grandchildren.
He shouted loudly.
"Grandpa, you're back. Have you sold all the dried mushrooms?"
Pan Erya raised her head, her eyes full of anticipation.
The brother and sister would go out of town every now and then to the mountains outside to pick wild vegetables and mushrooms.
The wild vegetables we dug are kept for our own consumption.
As for mushrooms, they are dried in the sun and then gathered into a basket to be sold.
Look, it’s full again today.
It was originally supposed to be sold by Pan Shitou.
But I took a job at home today and have several basins of clothes to wash.
Pan Erya couldn't wash it all by herself, so she had to ask their grandfather to do it.
"I've sold it. I made ten cents. Look, Grandpa bought you something delicious. Don't wash it. Take a rest and eat first."
Old man Pan smiled kindly.
He put the food in his hand on the table in the house.
Go get another bowl.
Pour out half of the mung bean soup.
Give half to each brother and sister.
Pan Erya opened the leaf and found two cakes, ten skewers of meat and a small piece of cloth wrapped inside.
She opened it and saw three copper plates.
"Grandpa, how come there is money here?"
Pan Erya held up the rag and showed it to Old Man Pan.
"Hey, this is the money I just gave to that little girl. Why are you returning it to me?"
He touched each copper plate carefully.
The dirt on it made it recognizable to him at a glance.
"Grandpa, what's going on? What little girl?"
Pan Shitou looked at him in confusion.
"Oh, just now Grandpa passed by a shop and heard that if you buy a cup of green bean soup for three cents, you will get two skewers of meat for free. I thought that skewers are so expensive, how can you buy them with three cents? It happened to be so hot, so I thought of buying a cup of green bean soup for you to cool down, and each of you can have a skewer of meat to replenish your body.
Unexpectedly, someone was looking for trouble, and the shopkeeper's granddaughter helped grandpa out. Grandpa gave her three cents and asked her to buy me a cup of green bean soup and take it back. Unexpectedly, the money was returned to me. "
Old Man Pan was a little upset.
He should have opened it and looked.
How can you accept someone's kindness and then eat their food for free?
"But, there are ten skewers of meat and some meat cakes here. Did grandpa buy them too?" Pan Erya asked again.
"No, no, no, this is an apology gift from the person who made trouble. Grandpa didn't want to accept it, but he insisted. Never mind, he also knows he was wrong. The weather is hot and everyone is irritable. It's okay. We are poor and it's normal to be a little irritated. Besides, he gave us so many things, we don't feel sorry for it. Haha, eat quickly, Grandpa has already eaten."
