"Is the scratch bad?"
"How much will it cost to fix it?"
Jia Dongsheng asked two key questions.
"Alas, the deaf old lady has lost one-third of her tiles, and Old Jintou is better off, but he has also lost one-fifth."
Yan Fugui sighed, "If we want to repair it, we have to buy tiles first and then find a worker. The old man also said that we should take this opportunity to fix it properly. Don't fix it once and then it breaks again in a few days. Fixing it better is also a way of showing respect to the old man. I guess it won't be cheap, it will cost more than ten yuan."
A dozen dollars?
Is it a lot?
Not less at all.
The average wage of workers is only 30 yuan, a dozen yuan, which is half a month's salary for a worker. It is not a small amount for any family.
Fortunately, there are many residents in the courtyard, and if each family donates a little, it should be enough.
"Uncle San, don't worry about it. It's not a big deal. If you have more, donate more. If you don't have much, donate less. Everyone in the hospital knows your family's situation and they won't say anything behind your back."
It would have been better if Jia Dongsheng hadn't said anything. After he said that, Yan Fugui's face became even more depressed. There was nothing he could do about it. There were three old men in the yard.
Moreover, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong's salary is twice that of Yan Fugui, which is much higher.
Yi Zhonghai makes 99 yuan a month, and although Liu Haizhong makes a little less, he also makes over 80 yuan, while Yan Fugui is only in his early 40s, there is no comparison at all.
But when donating money, if he donated much less than the other two uncles, he would lose face.
Seeing Yan Fugui continue to lament the passing of time, Jia Dongsheng stopped talking and took out an egg and handed it to Yan Fugui: "Third Uncle, I'm going back now. You take an egg back to soothe the pain in your heart. I've left the car here with you!"
"Okay, let me put it here, and we'll wipe it together later."
Holding the eggs, Yan Fugui felt a little better, but when he thought about having to donate money later, his heart ached even more.
Carrying a lot of things, I just walked into the middle courtyard and saw Yi Zhonghai holding Yi Xiaoming, staring at the hanging flower gate with anticipation.
Now Yi Zhonghai has figured out the pattern of Jia Dongsheng's shopping. As long as Jia Dongsheng doesn't go with Qin Huairu, he is most likely going to buy something.
Therefore, he started waiting early, and Yi Zhonghai's wait was not in vain, as he did get what Jia Dongsheng wanted.
"Uncle, have you eaten yet?"
"No, you went to the vegetable market again?" Yi Zhonghai replied, his eyes constantly scanning Jia Dongsheng's hands.
Yi Xiaoming greeted Jia Dongsheng with a smile: "Brother Dongsheng."
"Haha, hello, Xiao Ming!"
He said something to Xiao Ming first, then looked at Yi Zhonghai: "Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely do what I promised you."
He handed over the only rabbit and said, "Uncle, here is a rabbit. Give me five dollars later."
"Here it is, here it is."
Although five yuan is really expensive, normally, a three-pound rabbit costs less than three yuan, and the price is doubled at five yuan. It might be a good thing to buy it, so how can you dare to complain about the price?
Yi Zhonghai gave Jia Dongsheng a five-dollar bill and happily took the rabbit in his hands. Yi Xiaoming, who was in his arms, looked at the rabbit happily and thanked him, "Thank you, Brother Dongsheng."
"Xiao Ming is so good."
He patted Yi Xiaoming's little head, then took out two goose eggs that were bigger than Yi Xiaoming's fists put together and said, "Uncle, I'm treating Xiaoyue and Xiaoming to this. You can cook it for them tomorrow."
"No, Dongsheng, I have to pay. How can I take your things for free?"
Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai directly refused and immediately started to pay.
This action made Jia Dongsheng look at Yi Zhonghai higher. Indeed, throughout the whole drama, although Yi Zhonghai was calculating all the time, all he calculated were issues related to retirement. When it was not related to retirement issues, Yi Zhonghai was still a very good person.
"No, uncle, you're slapping me in the face. I'm treating my younger siblings to a meal, how can I ask for money?"
Then, he handed the goose egg in his hand to Yi Xiaoming: "Xiaoming, eat it with your sister when you get back."
"Brother Dongsheng, I can't accept it." Yi Xiaoming clenched his fists sensibly and refused to accept it.
Such behavior really surprised Jia Dongsheng. It was beyond his expectation that the child was so well-behaved and sensible.
When Yi Zhonghai saw this scene, he became even happier. This proved that his education was very good. Otherwise, how could Yi Xiaoming be so well-behaved?
"Dongsheng, come here, take the money."
"No, uncle, I'm treating them to a meal, not buying it for you. These are two different things."
Of course Jia Dongsheng couldn't accept the money, otherwise he would have sold it to Yi Zhonghai directly. He only gave the two goose eggs to the two children because he thought they were sensible.
"Uncle, if you're like this, I won't bring you anything next time."
Finally, after these words were spoken, Yi Zhonghai stopped handing over the money. There was no other way. The relationship he had finally established with Jia Dongsheng could not be ruined because of two goose eggs.
If things get out of hand, who will get him meat?
"Okay, Dongsheng, but it's just this once. Next time I'll have to spend money."
"Okay, okay, I won't treat you next time."
Yi Zhonghai finally took the egg, and immediately said to Yi Xiaoming: "Hurry up and thank your brother."
"Thank you, Brother Dongsheng."
"So good."
Jia Dongsheng touched Yi Xiaoming's head. The child's eyes were so bright. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him. After Qin Jingru got married, he must speed up the process of having children and give birth to ten or eight of them.
Jia Dongsheng didn't know that Qin Jingru had already had this idea of his and was waiting wholeheartedly for him to have a child.
"Dongsheng, hurry back and cook. We have a meeting after dinner."
"I understand, uncle. I'll go back first."
"Well, I have to go back to eat too."
Yi Zhonghai said: "Say goodbye to my brother."
"Goodbye, Brother Dongsheng."
"Well, goodbye Xiao Ming."
Jia Dongsheng returned home, having taken the blame for the foster father and son. As soon as he entered the house, Banggeng and Xiaodang came rushing over to greet him, "Second Uncle."
"Um."
After greeting him, the two little guys looked into the bag he was carrying, and even their throats began to swallow. They must be really greedy.
"I'm asking, are you two here to welcome me or to welcome these things?" Jia Dongsheng asked.
"Of course it's to welcome my second uncle." Banggeng is older and more thoughtful. Although he is more interested in what Jia Dongsheng has in his hands, he still says nice things insincerely.
But Xiaodang was still young and didn't have that many thoughts, so Zhangkou said, "Second Uncle, grandma just told my brother that you went out to buy some delicious food, and she said she would wait for you to come back and ask us to come and greet you."
Well, just sell out Jia Zhang.
"Xiaodang, what are you talking about?"
Jia Zhang was sitting on the sofa, doing some needlework, apparently making a pillowcase. When she heard Xiao Dang's words, she immediately shouted.
Xiaodang was frightened and stopped talking obediently.
