Mr. Long and his entourage, along with a group of tall, burly men with crew cuts who looked well-trained and wore black coats, also got out of the car after Xiao Yu and the others entered the gate of the courtyard.
Mr. Long and his team were responsible for arguing with all the onlookers in the front, while the men with crew cuts in the back were carrying two sacks each.
If you meet a man, give him a pack of expensive-looking cigarettes; if you meet a woman, give her two packs of candy and a gold chain.
If you meet a child, regardless of gender, give him a golden longevity lock and a red envelope of one thousand yuan.
When he met Xiao Yu's relatives, he was even more generous. He gave cigarettes and gold rings to the men, and candies, gold earrings, and pearl necklaces to the women. For those over sixty, like Xiao Yu's great aunts, he would directly give them a gold bracelet or a silver bracelet.
For the villagers who had lived in poverty all their lives, this scene was absolutely shocking. Many people were so exhausted that they were almost paralyzed.
"Brother Xiao, you've worked hard today!" Xiao Zheng was just calling out to a group of young people from the Xiao family to go out and borrow a table. As soon as he left, Mr. Long stuffed two packs of cigarettes into his arms. "Take these two packs and give them to everyone to add to the festive mood."
Xiao Zheng glanced at the two thousand yuan one and didn't pay much attention to it. He flipped over to another one. His eyes suddenly widened and he shouted, "The Yellow Crane Tower one for ten thousand yuan?"
The crowd outside the door suddenly fell silent: ...
Xiao Zheng quickly returned the Yellow Crane Tower to Mr. Long: "Uncle, forget about these cigarettes. I'll give them out so no one knows about them. If they find out later, they'll be so scared they'll have a stroke. These two thousand a pack are great."
Two thousand... one? Ten thousand a piece wouldn't be possible, but two thousand...
A group of men, young and old, who were watching nearby, were joking with each other and about to light a cigarette. When they heard the shout, they shuddered in fear.
Now look at the two thousand yuan pack of cigarettes in their hands, okay, they don’t deserve it either.
Normally they smoke cigarettes that cost a few dollars a pack. If they buy a few more packs a month, they will be scolded by their wives at home. These two thousand a pack, two hundred a pack, twenty cigarettes a pack, ten dollars a cigarette!
There was an old man who was standing close to his wife. Before he could take a closer look at what the two thousand yuan pack of cigarettes looked like, his cigarette was snatched away by his wife.
"I'll buy you one for a hundred yuan later. I don't smoke this one."
Old man: ...I, I just wanted to smell it. Ten yuan a cigarette, and he'll have stomachaches for days.
"Our cigarettes..." Several village cadres who got off the car at the back looked at each other. They were buying two packs of 2,000 yuan each, or two packs of 10,000 yuan each.
If they accept these cigarettes, they won't be blamed for anything, right?
The two guys from town weren't really important figures in their workplace, but they accepted four cartons of cigarettes worth 24,000 yuan. They couldn't bear to give them up. Besides, these guys gave them out to everyone they met, so their behavior couldn't be considered bribery.
"Waaaa! Grandma, give me back my money, give me back my money, I want to buy spicy noodles."
"Be good, Erbao. Spicy noodles are bad for your teeth. Grandma will hold them for you. Next time we go out, let's eat beef noodles and buy cake."
"Grandma, give it back to me. Xiaojun is wearing it, so I want to wear it too."
"You little bitch, this is gold, what if you lose it?"
☆
"...Did you see that? Those gifts given to Xiao's relatives just now were all gold rings, gold earrings, and pearl necklaces."
"Hey, Auntie Wotou, if you don't want the gold necklace in your hand, just tell me. It's free, but you still want to go to heaven?"
"That's right. I shouldn't have given it to you. Why are you so talkative?"
"I, I didn't say anything. I'm just envious."
"I think you're jealous. She's a legitimate relative. Didn't you just say that the aunt-in-law gave her 5,000 yuan as a gift because she had money but nowhere to spend it, and that she had too much money?"
"Exactly. Xiao Yu's uncle-in-law just grabbed three cartons of cigarettes. I saw two for 2,000 yuan and one for 10,000 yuan. He couldn't refuse them."
"That person saw the uncle smoking and was afraid that if he gave too little, it wouldn't be enough. He wanted to give more, but the uncle just ran away, so he didn't give it to him."
"Little uncle is nothing. The little aunt, the one who looks the most stylish, let her choose three pairs of gold earrings, a pair of gold bracelets, and a pair of silver bracelets."
"Oh my god, this, this, this is so much?"
☆
“That’s right…”
"Hey, we're from the same village, so we're related. What do you think? Should we give a gift? They each gave a cigarette and a gold chain, so how much should I give as a gift?"
"Good cigarettes, good cigarettes!" A tall and skinny old man who looked to be in his seventies was holding a cigarette, his whole body shaking. He didn't make much money in a year, and this cigarette could be sold for more than a thousand even if he sold it at a low price.
"...I was wondering why the Xiao family's relatives and relatives brought all the children back home, even those who were in high school."
"What do you know? Didn't you hear what the village cadres just said? Xiao Yu's clothes are amazing. The Xiao family finally has such an amazing person among the upright people."
"If Grandpa Xiao Yu were still alive, he would be so proud of himself that the whole team would be so proud of himself."
"Stop talking nonsense about Grandpa Xiao Yu. If any of the elders in the Xiao family were still alive, they would have to build an ancestral hall to worship their ancestors."
"Speaking of ancestor worship, I saw the eldest brother of the Xiao family leading a large group of Xiao family members to the grove early this morning."
"Oh, old man Xiao is so lucky! He died and gave his grandson such great wealth."
"But if Grandma Xiao Yu were still alive, we wouldn't have peace of mind. I don't know how to blow the whistle. What a pity, it was only two years ago. Sigh!"
