Chapter 633: The sophisticated city dweller
Bai Guoqing almost fainted, and the little boy's face was pale.
Oh my God, he didn't expect that the most expensive wine in the village was more than 20 yuan. I guess even the village chief has never drunk this kind of wine.
It’s no wonder that the child was so scared that he almost fainted, considering that two bottles of such expensive wine were needed.
Uncle Wang was a little embarrassed.
He had originally wanted to help the Bai family out of kindness, but he didn't expect that these city people were so knowledgeable. His place is so small.
People can see it at a glance, and it's no wonder, because I put this wine in the cabinet and treat it as the treasure of the store.
Whoever comes, sometimes you can show off.
At least the small shops in our village also have valuable things.
There was no other way as he only had two bottles of the store's treasure, so he could only take those two bottles of wine out from the counter.
I cursed these city folks in my heart.
These city people really know how to eat and drink. Look, they have cheated the Bai couple.
After taking the things, Jiang Lei looked at them again and remembered the cigarette basket in Bai Jiefang's house that contained dry tobacco leaves and newspaper rolls.
"Give me two of these two-headed phoenixes with filters."
By this time, Uncle Wang had become numb and Bai Guoqing no longer cared.
His parents have already told him.
They said that this city guy was actually a relative of Bai Yiyi's family. You have to know that they have raised Bai Yiyi for several years, and the food and drinks she eats are all according to the city's standards. When she comes to their house, they must treat her well.
Even if it means losing everything, you have to make people feel comfortable as if they were at home.
Otherwise, it would be unfair to the person who has been supporting Bai Yiyi.
Yes, his father thought he was just talking, but now their family is really going bankrupt.
Bai Guoqing felt a little indignant. It was Bai Yiyi who was eating and drinking well and enjoying the treatment of people in the city. Why should their family commit this crime?
Perhaps because things had progressed to this point, Bai Guoqing was no longer surprised at spending more money. He secretly planned in his mind that, since this was the case, he might as well wait until these people left and then tell his father that he would drop out of school and come back to help his father support the family.
His father would probably have to go out and borrow money again. If his family was in debt and couldn't pay it back, what would he do if he didn't help his father? He was the eldest son!
"Uncle, how much is the total? Please calculate it for me quickly."
Jiang Lei glanced at the big boy standing next to him who was almost as tall as his ears. What was that boy's expression?
My whole body is shaking, as if I'm shivering. Could it be that I'm scared?
The question is, what's so scary in broad daylight?
I didn't encounter any dogs or anything else along the way. Could I be scared when buying something in a store?
Uncle Wang looked at Bai Guoqing with sympathy.
It's unlucky for the Bai family to have such a relative!
"The total is 59.2 yuan."
Even if Uncle Wang sympathized with the Bai family, there was nothing he could do. This thing had to be sold, and he had to pay for what people wanted. He couldn't just refuse to take the money out of sympathy for the Bai family.
If you sympathize with others, you will be in debt yourself.
Before Bai Guoqing opened his mouth, Jiang Lei had already taken out a stack of ten-dollar bills, counted out six and handed them to Uncle Wang.
"Uncle, you don't need to give me the change for the rest. Just look at the remaining items and give me something else that's suitable. Just make up the 60."
Jiang Lei had no intention of letting others spend a lot of money.
The main thing is to know that this is Bai Yiyi’s second uncle.
Seeing how nervous this family is about Bai Yiyi, you can tell that the second uncle and second aunt are good people.
That's why he planned to buy two packs of cigarettes and two bottles of wine to thank his uncle and aunt.
They had to hire a tractor from far away villages to pick up the people and even act as guarantors for them.
They have one adult and three children who need food and shelter in someone else's home. This means they have to spend money everywhere.
Even if a poor relative comes to visit, he cannot come empty-handed. I have no choice. I didn't bring anything when I came, so now I can only buy some things in this store.
Even if it’s a gift you brought yourself.
Lao Wang was stunned.
Looking at the six big unity notes handed to me, I was unable to react for a long time.
Jiang Lei was so depressed.
It's not that he looks down on country people, but why does he feel that this person is a little dull and stupid?
Could it be that you don’t even know how to collect money?
If you don't know how to collect money, why do you open a convenience store?
"Uncle, you can charge money!"
Jiang Lei reminded the other party again.
Uncle Wang came to his senses instantly, a smile immediately appeared on his face, he hurriedly took the money, and counted it tremblingly, and sure enough, there were six big unity bills.
"With the remaining eighty cents, I can pack two pounds of salt for you, and bring you a bottle of soy sauce and a bottle of vinegar. I can also get some other things to make up the sixty cents for you. What do you think?"
Uncle Wang felt very happy, even though the things he bought were not for his family.
But looking at the behavior of these city people, you can tell that they are open-minded people.
He is definitely not the kind of person who would bring harm to his relatives.
It seems that people want the best things, but they pay for it out of their own pockets. Besides, what are these things generally used for? They are used as gifts.
He asked for the best wine, and it was obvious that this was a gift for the Bai family.
People in this city are very particular. They always give the best gifts and spend 60 yuan at a time.
Hey, why don’t I have such a wealthy relative?
Bai Guoqing was dumbfounded. How...how could he let the city dwellers pay for it?
He opened his mouth hastily, "Uncle, this won't do. This won't do. You came to our house and we should entertain you. How can you spend this money? Don't worry, my parents will give this money to Uncle Wang when they go back. You can take the things and leave. You really don't have to pay for it."
Even if he had seventeen or eighteen thoughts of complaining about others in his mind just now, they all disappeared now.
My father once said that we should treat people well when they come. They are guests, so how can we let them pay?
"You, why are you being so polite to me? This is Bai Yiyi's uncle. I'm her brother, so logically, I should call your parents uncle and aunt. How can I come to your house empty-handed? That's rude.
Besides, I also crave cigarettes and alcohol, otherwise I would not buy such good things. I didn't buy this for your family, I bought it to satisfy my own cravings. How can you go to someone else's house and ask them to buy cigarettes and alcohol for you? That's not polite.
Hurry up and get the things. The three little ones can't carry so many things. Let's go back quickly. Didn't your dad cut some meat to make dumplings? I'll help your dad and mom make them when we get back. The dumplings I make are really good."
Jiang Lei picked up two bottles of wine, two packs of cigarettes, and stuffed all the rest into Bai Guoqing's arms.
"Uncle, we are leaving now. Come back and get anything else you need."
Jiang Lei greeted them politely before asking the younger ones to follow.
With him in charge, he must keep an eye on these little ones. If anything happens again, he will be sorry for Jiang Xiaoxiao and Song Moting.
Bai Yiyi put the roll of RMB in her hand back into her pocket.
That’s how Third Brother is. She knows that Third Brother is always generous.
Why be polite to your brother?
