The next morning, Zhao Guihua and several other old ladies were still discussing the plot. The old ladies' opinions were not on the plot. They all felt that if a family had such a smart child, it would be a blessing for eight lifetimes.
Zhao Guihua was also among them, beaming with joy.
Li Junjun from Aunt Wang's family came over and asked, "Grandma Zhao, where's the tiger head?"
Zhao Guihua: "School starts tomorrow, right? I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy stationery."
Today, Zhao Guihua was alone at home. Hutou and Xiaoyanzi's kindergarten will start tomorrow, so Liang Meifen took the two children to buy stationery. Although it is a kindergarten, because Hutou will enter the first grade this summer, there are more kindergarten courses this semester, which is to help the children adapt to the elementary school life that will come in the second half of the year.
Things like pencils, erasers and notebooks need to be prepared.
Xiaoyanzi is younger and she likes to join in the fun.
Zhao Guihua smiled and asked, "It's a new semester, you didn't buy it?"
Li Junjun: "I still have some." When talking about going to school, the child was obviously a little disappointed. There is no child in the world who loves going to school. Li Junjun doesn't understand why he has to go to school! Why!
It's so bitter!
His originally happy mood suddenly became very depressed. How could the vacation be so quick? It seemed like only a few days had passed, and school started in the blink of an eye. This vacation was not enough at all. Li Junjun was very melancholy. Thinking that he would indulge himself at the end, he ran out.
On the last day, I must have fun with my friends.
"These kids are still unwilling to go to school. We didn't have such good luck back then. We really don't know how lucky we are." Aunt Wang sighed.
The others nodded, and everyone agreed that this made sense. When they were young, only the children of landlords could afford to go to school, not as good as it is now. The children were not satisfied with their good life.
"By the way, you guys..." Aunt Su was about to speak when she saw Director Chen from the street coming over. She immediately stood up with a smile on her face and said, "Director Chen, why are you here?"
Then he said, "Come and sit down."
Director Chen was about the same age as Zhao Guihua, a woman under fifty. She didn't hesitate and just found a bench and sat down.
Aunt Wang: "Director Chen, do you have any announcement to make this time?"
It was working hours now. If Director Chen hadn't had something to do, he wouldn't have come here at this time. Sure enough, Director Chen nodded and said, "Yes, didn't your hospital catch a thief just now?"
Everyone nodded.
Aunt Wang and Zhao Guihua both held their heads high and chests puffed out. They were participants and very proud.
Director Chen: "The police station has already said that this thief Zhang Saner is the culprit of the recent serial thefts. You have done a great job." Not only did they do a great job, their street was also praised by higher authorities.
After all, this man was caught by their patrol team, which means that their work was not in vain and was very fruitful.
This was a real achievement, so Director Chen did not hide her happiness at all. She said, "You did a great job. The street office coordinated with the police station, and our street office came forward to reward all the comrades who participated in the arrest that night."
Aunt Wang's eyes lit up and she said happily, "So what are the specific rules for this reward?"
Compared to the happiness of Aunt Wang and Zhao Guihua, Aunt Su's smile was very forced. As for Zhou Li, her face was not looking good. His family did not participate at all that day, and was even exposed for being lazy and not participating in the patrol that day.
Logically speaking, this matter was not a big deal, but the bad thing was that their house was robbed. So when people talk about this matter, they can't help but talk about how their family made excuses to be lazy and not go on patrol.
Bai Fendou, a nagging person, kept saying that his family was suffering retribution. Although this is nonsense, many people think it is right. Isn't it? How could they just happen to rob your house?
Anyway, every time this matter is mentioned, Zhao Guihua and others appear as positive characters. Zhou Li's family appears as "clowns". Now that this matter has been rewarded, how can Zhou Li be happy?
But she was also shameless, and she said, "Director Chen, what do we say? We are the victims, you have to compensate us, right?"
Director Chen also disliked Mrs. Zhou Li. She said coldly and rigidly, "Your house was robbed, and your property was returned to you, making up for your loss. Is there any compensation? But you, Aunt Zhou, there are some things I didn't want to say, but since you brought it up, I have to say that your awareness is really too low, isn't it? This street patrol is for the safety of everyone's collective property. You just said you don't want to participate, so is there still an organization and discipline? You can do whatever you want, how can this be... How can it be possible? If is as selfish as you, and only cares about themselves, then how can society develop? If is like you, and no one patrols and catches thieves, then everyone the money that was stolen from you this time will not be recovered. You really should reflect on yourself. I heard that Zhou Qun is also conscientious and works very hard in the unit. I hope that as a mother, you will not hold him back and embarrass him. You are a female comrade who stays at home all day, and you are not afraid of embarrassment. But you should also consider your son and daughter-in-law. You should neither bring honor to them nor bring shame to them. "
Director Chen scolded her, which made Mrs. Zhou Li's face look even uglier.
She pursed her lips, tightened her jaw, and said, "How did I discredit them?"
Director Chen: "You are slandering others by not participating in the collective patrol. I know you are uneducated and don't understand reason, but this is not your home. It is not a place where you can do whatever you want!"
These words were very serious, and everyone who came over showed contempt. Yes, because Director Chen had arrived, everyone who was not working in the compound came over to see what was going on. They just happened to hear Director Chen's words of rebuking Zhou Li, and they all nodded in agreement.
Zhou Li is a very unpopular person.
In fact, none of the old ladies in this courtyard were weak and not easy to mess with. However, the most despised and unpopular one was Zhou Li.
Let's not talk about other things, right? Let's just talk about the incident of a thief breaking into his house. A thief broke into his house, and everyone helped him catch the thief. Isn't there any risk? Although nothing happened in the end, everyone didn't know it at the time.
Everyone was working hard to find the thief in his house.
But his family didn't say a word of thanks, and the implicit meaning of their words was still complaining that the patrol team didn't catch the thief in the first place, but let the thief enter her home. Who would like such an ungrateful shrew?
Not to mention, she also said to others that if there hadn't been a thief in his house, would their patrol team have been able to catch the thief and gain a good reputation? So, everyone should be grateful to her family, and if there is a reward from the street or the police station, it should all be sent to his house.
His family is the victim.
Everyone had heard this to some extent, so they all disliked this old hag.
Zhao Guihua smiled and said with a hint of meaning: "Director Chen, please say less, otherwise there might be rumors about you in our neighborhood tomorrow, and they might even say you're bullying others."
Zhou Li was not happy when she heard this, and said in a sarcastic voice: "Zhao Guihua, what do you mean? Who are you talking about?"
Zhao Guihua said with a fake smile, "Who do you think would know? I didn't mention any names, and you came up to me. Do you think you know who you are? I've only heard of people picking up money, but I've never heard of people picking up insults."
Zhou Lishi: “You!”
She said fiercely: "Don't think that you can bully my family just because you have a large family. Let me tell you, I, Zhou Li, am not someone you can easily mess with. You old bitch..."
Zhao Guihua: "You are the old bitch, so bitchy. If I hadn't led people to catch the thief, you would have been crying. We helped you find the coffin book, but you didn't even say a word of thanks. You were still babbling in the yard and the alley. What's wrong? Do you think I, Zhao Guihua, am easy to mess with? Let me tell you, don't think that everyone will tolerate your mean and unlucky appearance and say bad things about others all the time. I don't care whether others can tolerate it or not, but I, Zhao Guihua, will definitely not tolerate you. Get out of my way! Otherwise, I will fucking slap you!"
Zhao Guihua pointed at Zhou Li and said, "Director Chen, look, why does this person keep saying that others bully her? Look at how vicious she is. Who can bully her? We helped her get the money back, but she didn't say we were good. She even said we were bad. Is she still a human being? I've been holding it in for the few past days!"
As soon as Director Chen saw Zhao Guihua's attitude, he knew she was really unhappy.
But Director Chen could understand this, she was also unhappy.
They are doing good things, but Zhou Li is really clueless.
It's no wonder that people get angry. In addition, Director Chen really knows the problem of this Zhou Li. Everyone in the world feels sorry for her all day long. She coughed and said, "Auntie Zhou, they all helped you. Have you thanked them?"
Zhou Li's eyes widened and she said, "Thank them? They should thank me."
As soon as she said this, everyone glared at her. She said as a matter of course: "If my house hadn't been robbed, would they have had the opportunity to get the reward?"
Usually, people only heard that she said such things, but some people didn't really hear them. But now, what else can they say? That's what she thought, and she said it out loud. Everyone was furious.
Although some people participated in catching the thief that night and some did not directly catch him, even those who did not directly catch the thief also participated in the search. It is inevitable that they would be very surprised to hear this now.
"Aren't you too shameless?"
"Really? Have some shame."
"This person's brain is different from that of normal people."
Everyone was talking back and forth, and Zhou Li was furious. But when she saw that everyone was hostile to her, and even Director Chen looked at her with disgust, she suddenly panicked. Although she was not a good person, she was a widow at a young age, and she knew that it was not right to offend everyone.
In particular, there was a "weak and kind" widow in their courtyard, which made her life even more difficult.
In the past, she knew how to restrain her thoughts, but her son worked hard and found a daughter-in-law who was rich and could be manipulated by her, so she became more and more arrogant. She became less and less willing to hide her true thoughts.
But now that everyone disliked her, she panicked. She was not afraid of being excluded by others, she was not afraid of that, but she was afraid of affecting Zhou Qun's reputation, after all, Director Chen's words were still fresh in her mind.
She was worried that this matter would be reported to the factory by the street office and affect her son's promotion.
Her son will have a bright future.
In fact, Zhou Li was overthinking. Their machinery factory had nothing to do with the street. The leaders of a large state-owned factory like this were one level higher than the street. For example, the last time Zhuang Zhixi was commended and met the factory director, it was completely accidental. But Zhou Li didn't understand these things, and was afraid that the street would complain. She panicked, thought for a while, and immediately said, "Oh, my stomach is uncomfortable, I'm going to the toilet..."
As he spoke, he immediately stood up and walked out quickly. If he couldn't afford to offend her, why couldn't he just hide from her?
Zhao Guihua sneered: "Ha!"
Disgusting stuff.
Director Chen also shook his head, not optimistic about this person. Zhou Qun was a good person, but why did he have such a mother? With Zhou Li's ability to offend people, he could only be a drag.
She coughed and said, "Let's not talk about her, she doesn't know anything. Let me talk about the opinions of the street and the police station. We have discussed it. The street will notify your unit of the eight people who participated in catching the thief this time, and each person will be rewarded with an enamel teacup, a pound of rice and a pound of noodles. In addition, all the people who participated in catching the thief that night will be notified to your unit to express gratitude, and the street will provide a bunch of noodles."
"Oh, that's really great."
"We are not after rewards, we value honor."
"That's right."
Even though everyone says this, I am still very happy to receive the reward. Nowadays, everything is rare.
And what this is, it's a reward of honor.
Is that just an ordinary thing? For example, when the old lady from the Sui family in the backyard heard that she was rewarded with a teacup, she was so happy that her toothless mouth was grinning to the sky.
Everyone was very happy, including Director Chen. Although their street had suffered a heavy loss this time, the street had also accepted the honor. In the year-end evaluation, their street would definitely have an advantage.
"There are more courtyards than buildings on our street. Neighbors should love each other and live in harmony. Only by supporting each other can we create a more united big family. Don't you agree?"
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Director Chen: "Auntie Zhou is... well, although it's a little ignorant, we should all be tolerant of each other. Your compound has made great efforts in catching the thief this time, and we all remember it. Although it's still early, I'll say this, as long as your compound performs well and nothing bad happens by the end of the year, then our street's honorary compound evaluation will most likely be given to you."
"ah!"
Everyone immediately perked up and looked at each other happily, saying, "This is the Courtyard of Honor! This is a great thing."
Their compound hasn't won any awards in the past few years, and they feel very envious when they see others winning honors every year.
You know, every year, every family that is awarded this honor can get about a pound of fine grain. This is not just a matter of honor, but also a practical gain.
Aunt Wang suddenly became ambitious and said, "Don't worry, Director Chen. I will definitely lead everyone to perform well. I will definitely not cause any trouble to our street."
Zhao Guihua also nodded. Each family could get one pound of fine grain, which was not a small amount.
She said righteously: "Director Chen, don't worry, we will definitely perform well. I don't care what others say. Our family is in our compound, and we promise not to cause trouble to anyone! We will never become a stumbling block for our compound's selection of advanced people."
Everyone expressed their opinions. It was hard to say whether they did it for honor or to get something at the end of the year. In short, on the surface, was doing it for honor. It was a matter of face. Were they doing it for the people who had a little food and drink? Well, actually, everyone, both of them.
But everyone said it was nice.
Director Chen was happy to see that everyone had expressed their opinions. He nodded and said, "That's good."
She still had to go to the courtyard next door to notify them. She wasn't going to stay long. She stood up and prepared to leave. Aunt Su stood up as well. She was a little weaker, and said in a low voice, "Director Chen, when can we collect the reward for catching the thief this time?"
Director Chen looked at her in confusion and said, "You are not included in that list either."
Aunt Su choked for a moment, then quickly said, "Although I was not feeling well that day, Brother Bai took my place on patrol, so I was actually included in the patrol."
She coughed twice pretendingly and said, "I'm just not feeling well. Normally I never miss work. I really want to do something for the compound and the street, but my body won't allow it. But I'm not someone who doesn't follow the rules. Brother Lao Bai helped me."
Director Chen was not familiar with Aunt Su, and Aunt Su always presented herself as a weak person, maintaining a very good surface image, so she did not know what kind of person Aunt Su was in reality. She felt sorry for Aunt Su and said, "I know this, but this time the reward is not based on the patrol personnel, but on the people who were actually responsible for the search that day. Although the old man Bai went on patrol that day, he was also replacing you. But after the thief broke out, when dispersed to catch the thief, he did not join in."
Aunt Su: “What?”
Her eyes widened in surprise.
Director Chen: "This time, the rewards are not based on the patrol team, but on the people who are actually responsible for helping. Old Bai didn't participate, so it doesn't matter whether he replaces you or not. This matter has nothing to do with him, let alone you."
Aunt Su was dumbfounded. She said, "He he he...he didn't go?"
She was so angry all of a sudden.
This old bastard, isn't he causing trouble for her? Why is he so useless? Can he be used at other times? He didn't participate at this time, damn it. Aunt Su hated it in her heart, but she had to pretend to be surprised and ignorant on the surface.
Director Chen saw her like this and said, "But his son Bai Fendou was one of them. He accompanied the victim Zhou Qun to report the case."
Actually, this matter was really related to Bai Fendou. Old Man Bai was originally there, but when he saw Bai Fendou was busy, he felt that there was no need for two people from his family to attend. There was no need, so he went home to sleep! So this led to the fact that whether to replace or not had nothing to do with Aunt Su.
Director Chen: "Bai Fendou was also busy that night until morning. He was indispensable for this matter."
After hearing this, Aunt Su's mood finally improved a little. Although they didn't get the reputation of doing a good deed, Bai Fendou at least got a bunch of noodles. But when she thought of this, she was very annoyed again. This Bai Fendou was really a fool. Why did he accompany Zhou Qun to report the case for no reason? Did they have a good relationship? missed more honors.
You know, if he didn't accompany her to report the case, he must have gone with Zhao Guihua and the others. How good would that be! Besides, there's also a teacup, which costs three or five yuan.
Aunt Su cursed in her heart, but on the surface she said softly, "I know. I'm sorry to trouble you."
The reason she can maintain her image is not because of unreasonable arguments. If she does, like Zhou Lishi, it will be useless. She knows how to shut up at the right time. Just like before, when she fought for her rights as a widow, she never jumped out. Anyway, Zhou Lishi would definitely jump out. As long as she jumped out, she would be indispensable.
Then there is no need for her to offend anyone or be disliked.
You can get the same thing anyway.
Just watch others make trouble.
She said with some shame: "I misjudged this matter, please don't mind it."
Director Chen waved his hand: "It's no problem, it's okay."
She said, "Okay, I'm leaving now, you guys are busy."
After Director Chen left, everyone immediately started discussing the matter with great interest. In fact, Mrs. Zhou Li had been waiting at the door the whole time. She just didn't want to have a direct negotiation with Director Chen, so she went out under the pretext of going to the bathroom.
Now that Director Chen had left, she naturally had to come back, but she didn't want to run into Director Chen head-on. Seeing him coming out, she turned a corner in the alley behind to hide, so as to avoid being seen. She took a few steps back, and just as she stood firm, a hand patted her shoulder.
She covered her mouth suddenly and turned her head quickly. When she turned her head, she saw an old lady smiling at her.
Mrs. Zhou Li was furious: "What are you doing? Are you crazy? Why did you suddenly tap my shoulder? It's a good thing it's broad daylight. If it was at night, I would be scared to death."
At this point, she suddenly thought that if she couldn't get the reward, she could get it in other ways.
As soon as she realized what was happening, she immediately said, "Oh, oh, you scared me. I don't feel well, I really don't feel well. You have to take me to the hospital, you have to take me to the hospital."
She pretended to shout while looking at the strange old lady, but... this old lady did n't seem afraid? She looked at her and stopped shouting, wondering: "You look familiar!"
This person looked familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before! She was about to cry and continue to extort money, but suddenly she remembered something. Her face suddenly changed and she whispered, "You...you are not a witch?"
Yes, this person is not someone else but Aunt Lian.
Aunt Lian smiled with her teeth showing, but upon closer inspection, she had a missing tooth. It was there yesterday, but it was gone today, and no one knew where it had gone. But it was not important, as Zhou Li only saw her once every eight hundred years, so she did not know this.
莲大妈也不会说，自己是用假狗血糊弄人，遇到个暴脾气，上门揍了她一拳，一点也没尊老爱幼，她的门牙就光荣下岗一颗。所以说年纪大了就是这点好，就是遇到点什么事儿，挨两句骂，挨一拳头也就结束了。
As for finding a public security comrade, that's not the case. At his age, it's really not easy for ordinary people to send him in directly.
The advantage of being older! Of course, it is not ruled out that the person who came to her also wanted to engage in feudal superstition.
Aunt Lian smiled and said seriously, "Look at you, what are you saying? What's the point of saying witch or not? We can't believe in feudal superstition. That kind of thing won't work. Just call me A-Lian."
Zhou Li's mouth twitched: "..."
Aren't you just practicing feudal superstition?
Perhaps because Mrs. Zhou Li's expression was too obvious, Aunt Lian smiled and said, "I can only be considered a quack doctor."
She became more serious: "Although I'm not a real doctor, a traveling doctor is still a doctor, not a fortune-teller. A fortune-teller is just playing tricks, but I'm solving big problems for the people."
The corners of Zhou Li's mouth twitched again. She had never seen anyone thicker-skinned than her.
She snorted and looked around. Seeing only a group of children playing, no one noticed her. She quickly pulled Aunt Lian aside and said, "I just wanted to find you. My daughter-in-law drank black dog blood, but her stomach is still not moving. What do you think is going on?"
Aunt Lian pretended to be profound and asked, "Has your daughter-in-law gone to the hospital for a checkup?"
Mrs. Zhou Li shook her head: "No, how can I go to the hospital? What if someone sees me?"
Although her son and daughter-in-law have not had a child, Zhou Lishi will not let them go to the hospital. The most secret thought in her mind is, if they go to the hospital and find out that there is nothing wrong with her daughter-in-law, what should she do?
Even though this was impossible, absolutely impossible, she...had to be on guard.
I have to say, this old lady is quite shrewd.
So even though she scolds her daughter-in-law for being an old hen that doesn't lay eggs all day long, she never lets her daughter-in-law go to the hospital for a formal check-up, and she only takes all kinds of folk remedies.
Aunt Lian had seen many such old ladies, and she understood immediately. Zhou Li was not so sure. She had been able to work for so many years without any failure, and it was not just because she kept selling things.
This won't work. Sometimes you have to use the tiger's skin and raise the banner, and even retreat in order to advance.
She thought about it and said, "I think this matter is not your daughter-in-law's."
Mrs. Zhou Li's face immediately changed, and she said sarcastically, "Are you blaming my son? If you say that, I will..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted. Aunt Lian shook her head and said, "It's not because of your son."
Zhou Li didn't understand this.
Aunt Lian tried to be mysterious and said, "I think it's probably because of a ghost."
Zhou Li: “Ah!!!”
Aunt Lian: "I'm not very skilled in Taoism, but I have a senior brother who said that your area is not peaceful when he passed by. There is a female ghost in your area, and this female ghost is hiding in the toilet. She has no children, so she has a suppressed aura. I can't say what the situation was like in your family before, and I can't say what the situation will be in the future, but recently it should be because of this..."
She had heard that this place was haunted 800 years ago. As an old charlatan, she didn't believe it at all! It's not a ghost story. She is a staunch atheist, but is she just making up stories to make money? Not at all! Otherwise, who would care about her, an old lady with nothing.
She is very particular. If someone else were to do something immoral, the daughter-in-law would be tortured to death. She is completely pushing it away, which is already a very particular person. We make money, but we don't hurt people! This is a moral character. We don't do immoral things.
Very particular!
Anyway, people of Zhou Li's age are still very superstitious. Although everyone says not to engage in feudal superstition, it is really hard to say whether they believe in it or not when they are old. If they don't believe it, they won't look for her, right?
So Aunt Lian kindly pushed the problem to the "female ghost".
Sure enough, Zhou Li believed it and said excitedly: "Yes, yes, there have been frequent incidents in the toilets in our area recently." She had completely forgotten that Aunt Lian had just said that she was not playing tricks.
Aunt Lian: "Look, it must be a man and a child who fell in."
Zhou Li: "Yes, yes, yes."
She was excited: "Why?"
"This female ghost, she needs it. Didn't I tell you just now that female ghosts can't have children? So she can't stand seeing other people have children, and she likes men's children, so it's the men's children that fall. You see why it's not an old man, she prefers strong men. The next one to fall is the eldest son, because she wants a son. Your son has fallen, so your family is suppressed. Otherwise, your daughter-in-law would have been pregnant long ago after drinking the black dog's blood. It's fate!"
Mrs. Zhou Li understood immediately and said, "What you said makes a lot of sense. That's not the case. So do you think there is any solution? I don't have any children yet."
Aunt Lian: "I don't have a good solution yet."
The more she said this, the more Zhou Li believed her and said, "You have to think of a way for me. You see, everything you said is right. I know you are still very capable."
She held Aunt Lian tightly, and Aunt Lian hesitated for a moment and said, "I really don't have a good idea. After all, this business is in decline now. If you really want me to say it, I can only say that you should buy some black dog blood first. In fact, black donkey hooves are more effective, but I don't have them here. This thing is not easy to make, and it's too expensive. Most people can't afford it. Now I don't have a better idea, I can only let you suppress this temporarily. I think you should know that this black dog blood is very evil. In the short term, don't think about the child, and pay attention to safety first. Otherwise, you will fall in again."
Zhou Li: “Ah!”
Aunt Lian: "I can't do anything about it. Wait for me to find someone in the same field to study it together after a while."
Mrs. Zhou Li: "Okay, give me two pounds!"
Aunt Lian: “…”
He is indeed a rich man.
She shook her head seriously: "Where can I get so much? I'll give you a small bottle for now. Please give me ten dollars."
"Okay, okay!" Now it's time to pay.
Aunt Lian stopped her and shook her head.
She said mysteriously, "You can ask your daughter-in-law to come to my house to see me in the evening. I can't carry such an important thing with me."
Zhou Li: "Okay."
She said, "Remember to do it late at night and don't let anyone see you. To be honest, there are a lot of people in your area who are looking for me. Who wouldn't be upset if someone fell into the toilet out of nowhere? It's inevitable that you would think too much."
Zhou Li nodded in agreement.
"You should go back quickly. Don't let anyone see it. It would be bad if someone saw us."
Mrs. Zhou Li: "You are right. I will ask my daughter-in-law to go there tonight."
After she finished speaking, she hurried back, thinking that Aunt Lian was really good and amazing.
Aunt Lian made money and was very satisfied. Although she came to see Zhao Guihua today, she didn't expect to get an unexpected reward. It seems that this trickery can still be sustainable. So, people need more skills.
She said these things, in fact, anyone who pulled her over knew them, but when she said them mysteriously, it was very effective. After Zhou Li left, Aunt Lian found a child, gave him a piece of candy and said, "Go to the courtyard over there and help me call Zhao Guihua."
If she hadn't met Zhou Li, she would have entered the house directly.
But now that I have met Zhou Li, it would be bad to go directly to Zhao Guihua. If Zhou Li gets worried, Zhao Guihua might not be reassured. She is a money-swindler... No, to make money, she also needs her own skills.
The child got the candy and happily ran to Zhao Guihua's courtyard and called out, "Grandma Zhao, Grandma Zhao."
Zhao Guihua came out in a hurry: "What?"
Child: “Someone is looking for you.”
Zhao Guihua followed the child in confusion. When she turned a corner, she saw Aunt Lian. She immediately laughed and said, "Why don't you just come in? There's nothing shameful in our compound."
Aunt Lian smiled: "It's inconvenient."
She has other business in that compound.
Zhao Guihua looked at him with a look of “I understand”. What was there to not understand?
Aunt Lian thought she knew nothing, but in fact, she really knew everything.
Aunt Lian: "Didn't I tell you last time that I have already contacted them about the cloth? Are you sure you can go?"
Zhao Guihua nodded: "Of course!"
Such a good opportunity is not often available to ordinary people. If you are a little cautious, it will be gone. Zhao Guihua is not a fool. She said, "I won't let you help me for nothing."
Aunt Lian smiled and said, "Of course I will. I need to eat and drink too. I've made an appointment. Come to my house at 8 o'clock on Sunday night and I'll take you there. I'll charge you one yuan as an introduction fee. I'll take you there and there's a connection. The cloth is 60 cents a sack. You can bring your own sack. Is that okay?"
Zhao Guihua: "No, do you have anything else to say?"
This is similar to speculation, but not completely speculation. She still needs to ask clearly in advance.
After all, one dollar for an introduction fee is not a small amount, and a pound of meat is only 85 cents.
"We go to the warehouse to get the strips of cloth. It takes about half an hour. You can pick whatever you want. There are big and small ones. It's up to you. If you are lucky, you can pick a bigger one. If you are unlucky, you can pick a smaller one. It's all up to you. But you have to be quick. Otherwise, they will chase you away and you will only have half a bag. No one will care about you. You will suffer the consequences."
Zhao Guihua nodded: "I understand."
In other words, there is no such thing as half a bag costing 30 cents. When you go in, it costs 60 cents.
"There are rolls of cloth inside, but just look at them. Don't touch them. Otherwise, they will hold you down. Besides, you won't have this opportunity again, and even I will be punished. Just don't cause trouble for me. But I think you are a smart person and you definitely can't do this."
Do you think Aunt Lian dares to bring people with her casually? She has her own vision!
Aunt Lian: "Okay, I live at... Come to see me on Sunday night, don't come to the wrong place, and don't come too early. I'll tie a red cloth on the tree at the door, and you'll know you've come to the right place when you see it."
Zhao Guihua: “Okay!”
The two sides reached an agreement and dispersed immediately.
Aunt Lian was deeply moved and said that she should learn more.
Even now, if she is caught doing these two jobs, the sentence for engaging in this kind of feudal superstition is heavier than that for dealing in a piece of cloth. So, you can see how much money you can make. He is feudal and superstitious and fights for ten yuan.
Speculation and profiteering to fight for a piece of the pie.
It turns out that the risk is high, but the profit is high.
Aunt Lian sighed and left happily, thinking that this place had great feng shui. She had developed several customers in this area. If one more person fell into the toilet, her business would probably be even better.
Aunt Lian sighed and said that this place was really a good place. Similarly, Mrs. Zhou Li was muttering at home that the feng shui of this place was really bad.
Of course, for Zhao Guihua, feng shui was of no concern. She walked home happily, thinking that she would have to be more observant when the time came, because buying cloth also required careful eyesight.
"Who the hell is this? Who put up this sign? How could it be so immoral?" Zhao Guihua stepped into the yard with one foot, and before she put her other foot in, she saw Bai Fendou standing behind the toilet, furious.
That's like stepping on someone's tail.
Zhao Guihua stopped and said, "This calligraphy was written by my third child, but it was the request of the old Baotou!"
But she said the truth: "It's useless even if you are unhappy. It was the old man who took care of you guys last time."
But after saying this, Zhao Guihua looked at Bai Fendou in confusion and asked sincerely, "Hey, Bai Fendou, isn't it working time now? Why are you back? Besides, what were you doing behind the toilet?"
That sign is standing next to the cesspool!
That's behind the toilet. If you don't go around it specifically, it's not on the way.
Bai Fendou's face suddenly turned the color of liver.
Zhao Guihua: “???”
She was just a little confused at first, but when she saw his expression suddenly change, she suddenly became alert, and curiously came over and said, "Tell me, what are you doing here?"
Everyone has this curiosity. Zhao Guihua looked Bai Fendou up and down.
Bai Fendou: "I just looked around."
Can Zhao Guihua be trusted?
This can't be possible!
She smiled more kindly: "Just look at it, what do you mean? What do you want to do?"
She leaned forward and said, "You don't really want to swim, do you?"
Bai Fendou yelled: "No way!!!"
He feels so miserable!
Why do you say that about him!
Aunt Zhao, you are so mean! (End of this chapter)
