Chapter 274 Not Selling
Little Wang said without any shame, "I wanted to help, but there is nothing I can do."
"So your family really didn't help. This meat is to be distributed to those who came to help." Shen Qingqian explained patiently.
She was not familiar with the Ma family, but Ma Tingting had left a very bad impression on her a few times before. She didn't expect that she would have such a mother.
"Why don't you understand, little girl? I want to help, but you have no work to do. I said I would divide the meat, but you didn't want to. Can you blame me? Besides, this is such a big wild boar, can't you be willing to share even a pound or two of meat with my family?"
The more Xiao Wang spoke, the more she felt she was right.
In fact, everyone came from Beijing and they all loved face, but the Ma family didn't work seriously and didn't stock up on supplies when they were in the mountains. Let alone meat during this period, if the fourth child hadn't found a ginseng a few days ago and sold half of it for some silver, her family would have almost run out of food.
"Mom, don't be like this. It's all my fault that I fell down at home just now. You were in a hurry to take care of me and delayed coming to help." Ma Tingting walked closer and looked at Shen Qingqian and others with an apologetic look.
"Sixth Miss, can we pay for this meat?" Ma Tingting bit her lip and hesitated to speak. "We are out of money. We will owe you the money for the meat today. We will definitely give it to you when we make money."
Shen Qingqian was so shocked by her words and actions that she almost got goosebumps. She curled the corners of her lips and raised her chin in Sheng Ze's direction, "Miss Ma, it's no use telling me. You have to tell Third Brother Cheng."
I don’t know what’s wrong with this girl. She was rejected by Cheng San in the morning, but she came back to try to make him important in the evening.
When Shen Yong heard what Ma Tingting said, he immediately became furious and turned to ask Sheng Ze, "Where did this person come from and what is he saying? Third brother Cheng, do you think our family has taken away your things?"
Sheng Ze frowned and shook his head.
Shan Mancheng's eyes flashed, and he curled his lips and said, "The falling flowers have feelings, but the flowing water is ruthless."
Shen Yong's eyes widened when he heard this, "Why does this woman like Cheng San Ge?"
You can't control yourself when you like someone, but is this woman out of her mind to actually express it like this before she's sure of his feelings? Where did she get the "Daughter's Classic"?
"The Daughter's Classic" was written by the queen of the previous dynasty to regulate women's words and deeds.
It mentioned that women should be reserved and polite when facing men.
Sheng Ze suddenly stood up and said, "I'll go over and take a look."
Ma Tingting was still negotiating with Shen Qingqian about buying meat when Sheng Ze's voice suddenly rang out.
"This meat is not for sale. Everyone who helped can get a piece. The rest of you can go yourselves."
These words directly determined the issue of dividing the meat, and the looks others gave Ma Tingting and her daughter were indescribable.
Shen Qingqian arched her eyebrows at Sheng Ze, then walked past Ma Tingting and her daughter and began to divide the meat.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. Come and enjoy the pig-killing meal tomorrow night." Shen Qingqian said to everyone with a smile as he distributed the food.
"Haha, I will definitely come! If you don't eat meat, you are a fool."
"That's right. I'll ask my mother and wife to come over early tomorrow to help. I'll come straight over after work."
"I also"
Ma Tingting and her daughter lost all their face and dignity, and while everyone was dividing the meat, they ran back home in shame.
There is a custom here of eating dishes after slaughtering a pig. Whenever a family slaughters a pig, they will invite neighbors and relatives to come and eat. Even if they only drink a bowl of bone soup, they will feel happy.
After everyone dispersed, Wu found Shengze and asked, "What are you going to do with the remaining meat?"
