"Sister, I have to go back. You are busy." Old Mrs. Ma returned home angrily.
"Grandma, did you get the meat?" Ma Zhuang knew that his grandmother had gone to the home of Captain Xu, who cooked delicious food.
His grandmother was very helpful. Whenever she visited someone's house, she would always bring back something for him to eat.
It was either a handful of candy or a few biscuits, and sometimes some meat.
There are delicious foods at Captain Xu’s house. Grandma must have made a lot of good food, right?
"Grandma, where did you hide it?" Ma Zhuang searched up and down for something delicious.
"Grandson, go play outside by yourself. Grandma didn't bring back any food. Captain Xu's mother-in-law is so stingy."
"Grandma, I want to eat meat."
Because the food in the canteen had improved recently, Captain Ma would always bring back a lot of dishes from the canteen for his family, and Ma Zhuang had gained several pounds.
"Eat, eat, eat, that's all you know how to do. I don't have any meat coupons this month. I'll think about it next month."
Captain Ma’s meat coupons were used to buy fatty meat and oil, but every time they ate meat, it was for only Old Lady Ma and Ma Zhuang.
Others can't even get a taste of it, so it's already pretty good just eating the stew with meat.
The two daughters of the Ma family could not eat meat at all.
“Woo…”
"Mom, what's wrong? Don't take your anger out on the child. Dazhuang, don't cry. Go outside and play. Mom will get you some candy."
Captain Ma's wife gave her son a candy and coaxed the child into submission.
"It's all because of you, useless guy. Look at Jiang Yuzhu. She cooks delicious food, and the political commissar directly hired her to the cafeteria. She's a senior chef, and she only makes 68 yuan a month."
"Tell me, why are you so screwed? Even if you can earn twenty or thirty bucks a month, it will be fine. Wouldn't that make our family better off? Why should my eldest grandson not be able to afford meat?"
Old Mrs. Ma vented all her dissatisfaction on her daughter-in-law.
"Mom, all the meat in our house goes into your mouths and the children's. You eat a lot. Why don't you eat less and let the children eat more." Captain Ma's wife was also unhappy.
She didn't get to eat the meat either, so who could she tell?
That is, during the Chinese New Year, she was lucky enough to eat meat dumplings. This was the amount she ate throughout the whole year.
Usually, the meat in the house is eaten by my mother-in-law and son.
"Well, you mean to let an old woman like me starve to death, so you can save food and meat."
Old Mrs. Ma immediately raised her eyes and looked at her daughter-in-law fiercely.
"Mom...I...didn't say that. You said it yourself."
"You unfilial thing, I will let my son divorce you!" Old Mrs. Ma grabbed her daughter-in-law's hair and hit her twice.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law started fighting in the house. Ma Zhuang, who was outside the house, was eating candy and didn't care about what was happening in the house.
Seeing his brothers playing together in the distance, he ran over.
"Brother Jiang Tao, is this the gun Uncle Xu made for you?" Everyone was envious when they saw Jiang Tao holding the small handicraft that Xu Lei made for his brother-in-law.
"Yes, this is the gun my brother-in-law made for me using bullet shells. Isn't it cool?" Jiang Tao had a great time playing with them.
"Brother Jiang Tao, let me touch it." Jiang Nan reached out to touch the gun.
"Be careful." Although Jiang Tao was reluctant, he still lent it to Jiang Nan.
"Little brother, let me touch it." Jiang Dong also wanted to take a look.
"And me, and me." Zhang Wei and Zhang Qiang also looked at the handsome gun with envy.
"Brother Jiang Tao, I envy you so much. Your Uncle Xu treats you so well, our father doesn't even do it for us."
Although these little guys are a few years younger than Jiang Tao, they can still play together and are not pretentious children.
"Of course, my brother-in-law is the best to me."
"He also said that he would use bullet shells to make a warship for me." Jiang Tao was very proud.
"Ah, Uncle Xu is so awesome!"
"What are you holding in your hands? Let me see!" Ma Zhuang saw them all gathered together, not knowing what they were looking at, so he came over curiously.
"Why is it you?"
"Let's go!"
When Jiang Nan saw that it was Ma Zhuang, he couldn't help but roll his eyes. This guy was the most annoying one.
Seeing him makes me stop bothering others.
"Don't leave!"
"Give me the thing, do you hear me?" Ma Zhuang is used to being arrogant with his two sisters at home, and he behaves like this outside as well.
"Whoever indulges your bad habits, go back to your home and act like a tyrant!" Jiang Nan is not afraid of this kid.
"You...you bullied me. I will tell my grandma and ask her to go to your house to find your mother!" Ma Zhuang pointed at Jiang Nan.
"Go ahead, who's afraid of who?" Jiang Nan is not afraid of this.
Jiang Dong tugged at Jiang Nan and said, "Ma Zhuang, go home. Your mother and grandmother will be worried soon."
"Brother, what are we afraid of him doing?"
"Forget it, why should we do the same as him? Let's go." Jiang Dong pulled everyone away.
"I said you can't leave, give me the things!" Although Ma Zhuang is young, he is very brave and he just grabbed it.
Zhang Qiang was robbed when he was not prepared.
With a thud.
The cartridge case gun fell to the ground and broke.
"Ma Zhuang, you have to compensate Brother Jiang Tao for his gun. Uncle Xu made it. Let's see if he comes after you!"
Jiang Nan was so angry that he pushed Ma Zhuang away.
Ma Zhuang sat down on the ground, fuming with anger, "You... all bullied me!"
He suddenly jumped up and crashed into Jiang Tao.
Ma Zhuang also knew how to treat people differently. He heard his mother and grandmother say that Jiang Tao was a freeloader, and that Captain Xu's mother-in-law had brought her brother-in-law with her. There would definitely be trouble in the future.
So Ma Zhuang thought that Jiang Tao was the one he could bully the most here.
Jiang Tao didn't dare to do anything.
ah……
Jiang Tao was knocked to the ground, his palms burning with pain.
"Brother Jiang Tao, you are bleeding." Several children quickly helped Jiang Tao up.
"Ma Zhuang, you've gone too far. Just wait!"
"Forget it, let's go." Jiang Tao picked up the gun on the ground and walked home with the gun in his arms.
His mother told him not to cause trouble for his brother-in-law.
"Hmph, what can you do to me?" Ma Zhuang made a smug face.
