Chapter 7(1/2)
Li Erhei
At this time, the sky was slightly bright, and the streets were still deserted, with not many people around.
Li Weidong took two steps back and saw clearly the person who bumped into him.
"It turns out to be sister-in-law of the Jia family. Where are you in a hurry?"
Qin Huairu was holding a jar in one hand and covering her chest with the other, with a little panic visible on her face.
"Li Er...second brother."
"You'd better call me by my name, these two brothers are not very nice."
Li Weidong shook his head, then knelt down to pack the basket.
Taking the flour bag away, you can clearly see that several eggs inside have been broken.
Qin Huairu originally wanted to make a joke, but when she saw this scene, she was dumbfounded.
At the same time, Zhang Xiuzhen and her sister-in-law also got up.
Grandma didn't pay much attention to what she bought, but Zhang Xiuzhen and Yang Fangfang both opened their eyes wide.
Looking at the broken egg, he frowned.
"For the sake of everyone living in the same courtyard, I will grant you grace until the end of the year, but by then it will not be three eggs, but six."
This made her feel even more distressed.
And now, let her pay three eggs?
Where did she get the eggs?
"Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't have any eggs. I just bought these eggs at the pigeon market. At 25 cents each, three are 75 cents. You can just give me the money."
"It was my first time to go to Pigeon Market and I couldn't help but walk around a little bit more. Here are the flour and eggs I bought."
"Brother Li... Weidong, do you think this will work? When my family issues egg stamps at the end of the year, I will buy them and return them to you."
Li Weidong ignored the confused sister-in-law and spoke directly to Zhang Xiuzhen.
"Seven?"
"Go ahead."
Although she was not confused in her heart, Qin Huairu still tried her best to smile.
At this time, whether a new daughter-in-law or an old daughter-in-law wants to sleep until midnight or ask her mother-in-law to bring rice to the bedside, it is simply too much.
"What you think is so beautiful."
"He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looks pretty decent. I didn't expect him to be evil-minded. I don't think he should be called Li Weidong. I might as well call him Li Erhei."
But Li Weidong was accustomed to the life of later generations, and now that he had a game farm nearby, he looked down upon it.
It’s five times as much when you get to her?
A grown man knows how to bully a widow.
"End of the year?"
Was it accidentally broken by her?
My husband died less than half a year ago, and I just gave birth to a baby daughter. I also have a mother-in-law, a son, and an eldest daughter at home.
"Sister-in-law, I was a little anxious just now, but you didn't pay much attention to the road. How about we make five of the broken eggs and each of us takes on three of them?"
Then I felt a little dizzy.
"no!"
egg?
If it were left in an ordinary home, it would be reluctant to throw away even the broken ones. Even if it is stained with dirt, it would have to be picked up.
In other words, grandma hasn't slept since he left.
Li Weidong looked at grandma flatteringly, and then put the basket on the table.
Qin Huairu's eyes widened and her chest puffed up.
Qin Huairu's face turned pale.
My brother-in-law hurt his head and is confused?
Eggs are small these days, about ten to a pound.
Li Weidong seemed to see through her thoughts and spoke again.
But in fact, most of the eggs went into the stomachs of my son and eldest daughter.
Only when Li Weidong's figure disappeared did Qin Huairu come back to his senses.
As for eggs, the last time I ate them was when I just gave birth to my little daughter. As a person with special needs, I received a two-pound egg stamp at the street office.
Why not grab it?
If you buy it with egg stamps, it's only 50 cents per pound.
Of course, she just said it casually.
Seeing Li Weidong, grandma finally let go of her hanging heart.
Grandma took a deep look at her daughter-in-law and praised her with a smile.
"Ah."
After all, who doesn’t have a difficult time?
Have you never been to Pigeon Market secretly?
"I have no money."
Li Weidong chuckled and simply walked past the other party carrying the basket, but his voice faintly reached Qin Huairu's ears.
flour?
Qin Huairu became angry from shame and complained bitterly.
"You, if you go to the black market to buy eggs, you are buying and selling. Aren't you afraid that I will report you?" Qin Huairu said angrily.
Two and a half cents for an egg?
"Well, it's pretty good. I just boiled two eggs for Weidong to replenish." What else could Zhang Xiuzhen say?
"Sister-in-law, I bought a total of fourteen eggs and cooked seven of them this morning, just one for each of our family members," Li Weidong said.
However, the former was distressed and thought that all the money he gave Li Weidong had been spent by him.
Who doesn’t know that eggs are precious these days?
And her family's situation is particularly special.
Li Weidong said calmly.
The old lady's partiality is also very crooked.
Is this when she has never been to the black market?
Don't know the price?
"Well, it was just a coincidence that the person selling flour and eggs was a friend of mine who sold them to me at a cheap price." Li Weidong said calmly.
Is there a friend who sells pumpkins and a friend who sells flour and eggs? In a few days, maybe even the friend who sells meat will show up.
Yang Fangfang was a little unresponsive.
Qin Huairu didn't want to do anything anymore, so he just acted like a rogue.
Zhang Xiuzhen's voice rose a bit, and she looked at Li Weidong with suspicion.
It's equal to a nickel.
The latter is pure joy.
Being generous can sometimes be seen as weak and can be bullied.
Even though I didn't pay much attention to the eggs, it was obviously impossible to pretend that nothing happened.
egg?
There is actually nothing to clean up at home. They are all half-new and old belongings, and because there are few places to stay, no matter how you clean them up, they always look messy.
"Two dollars?"
Hearing Li Weidong's words, Qin Huairu muttered silently - He is evil-minded.
Li Weidong cleaned up the broken eggs and broke six in total.
She couldn't bear to eat it.
"Okay, if you're not afraid that your father will break your legs, just come."
There's a difference of sixty cents here.
