Siheyuan: I just want to wait until the end of the play

"Okay, everyone should have tasted these things, right?"

The second uncle asked.

Below there are sounds of cracking melon seeds, peeling peanuts, and eating candies.

Everyone praised while eating: "I tasted it all! It's delicious!"

The second uncle raised his head proudly and said, "I asked Ge Li from the next door yard to buy these things together. The boss looked at Ge Li and gave him a big discount."

Everyone also knew Ge Li. After all, they lived in the same courtyard and worked in the same factory. They were all familiar with each other, so they all looked at Ge Li with admiration.

These days, it’s not easy for anyone to have the connections to buy these good things.

The white-bearded old man Ge Li smiled slightly and welcomed everyone's admiration.

Second uncle: "First uncle, third uncle, what do you think of the purchase this time?"

Old man: "Yeah, very good."

Third uncle: "Thank you for your hard work, second uncle."

The second uncle actually asked Li Qiao again: "Li Qiao, you have tasted it too. Can you tell me in front of everyone whether these things are good?"

Li Qiao stood up in confusion, "What's going on? Why are you asking again in public?"

Li Qiao couldn't figure out what the second uncle wanted to do, so he could only reply: "Yes, they are all good things."

The second uncle nodded with satisfaction and said, "Everyone has heard it, Li Qiao himself said these are good things."

Then, he moved directly to the next topic: "I bought some things, but the deaf old lady's birthday has not come yet, so where should I store these things? This is a problem. Please discuss it together."

When everyone heard it, they immediately started talking.

"So many good things must be stored in a reliable place!"

"Isn't that right? Who wouldn't be greedy for something worth twenty yuan? If it gets stolen, it will be a huge loss!"

"Not only will it be stolen, but it will also be protected from being bitten by rats!"

"Yes, the food that people eat must not be ruined by rats!"

"I want to put it in my house. I can't eat it, but it smells good too!"

"Hey, that's what I thought too. With so many good things, the house looks festive!"

"Yes, you can show off by having a guest, right?"

After everyone discussed it, everyone wanted to put the things in their own homes.

"Quiet, quiet!"

Seeing that the discussion was almost over, the second uncle said, "Where should I put the things? Everyone is invited to speak enthusiastically."

Xu Damao: "Let me go home!"

Qin Huairu: "Let me go home!"

Silly Zhu: “My family is fine too!”

Jia Zhangshi: "Leave it to me!"

Neighbor A: “My house!”

Neighbor B: “My house!”

Neighbor C: “My house!”

…

In short, a fight broke out immediately.

The first uncle said: “I can let it go too!”

Third uncle: "I also have room at home."

When the second uncle saw this, he showed a troubled expression and said: "Oh, it's really unexpected that everyone is so active. Let's draw lots and decide, whoever draws the lottery will be able to keep these supplies. What do you think?"

As soon as everyone heard that we were going to draw lots, they immediately agreed.

After all, with so many people competing, drawing lots is only fair.

Old man: "I agree!"

Third uncle: "I agree!"

Second uncle: "Okay, let's draw lots."

Soon, the white-bearded old man Ge Li got the tools for drawing lots and presided over the drawing.

Ge Li was from the outer courtyard, so having him preside over the drawing of lots was considered a symbol of fairness.

Each household in the courtyard sent a representative to draw lots.

Li Qiao was not prepared to get involved, and he never thought about drawing lots.

However, the second uncle called him again.

"Li Qiao, you are a member of our hospital. You are the only one in your family. Come on, come up and draw lots!"

With that said, he asked Li Qiao to draw lots.

Li Qiao always felt that the second uncle was a little too enthusiastic today.

But in front of so many people, he couldn't help but give face.

So I followed the second uncle and drew a lot from Ge Li's hand.

He smoked it randomly without even looking at it. He just threw it on the table and thought about it.

"oops!"

The second uncle behind him suddenly let out a scream, which startled Li Qiao.

Li Qiao turned around and looked at the second uncle in confusion.

The second uncle picked up the bamboo stick and said excitedly: "Li Qiao, you are so lucky!"

Everyone looked at the second uncle. The second uncle raised the bamboo stick and said, "Look, everyone, look at how lucky Li Qiao is. He just picked it and won this opportunity!"

Everyone immediately let out a sigh.

Jia Zhangshi: "Damn Juehu, how lucky he is!"

Silly Zhu: "This boy from the Li family is really lucky!"

Qin Huairu: "Huh, let Banggeng go to his house to steal it at night!"

Li Qiao was in a state of confusion, just like that... he won the lottery?

Li Qiao has no interest in keeping supplies or anything like that.

"Second uncle, I don't want to keep it, you can find someone else!"

Li Qiao refused directly.

However.

The second uncle looked serious: "Li Qiao, this is no child's play!"

Silly Zhu: "That's right! If you win the lottery, you have to take responsibility. How can you give up the pick!"

Qin Huairu: "Yes, if everyone does this, how will things be done in this courtyard in the future!"

Xu Damao: "Boy from the Li family, this is a good opportunity, why do you want to give it up?"

Lou Xiao'e: "Li Qiao, put things in your house, it will give you face!"

Third uncle: "Li Qiao, this is not a joke, you are who you are, don't shirk it!"

The first man said: "Li Qiao, you are a young man and you should share some responsibilities for the courtyard. Otherwise, the neighbors will have ideas."

Li Qiao didn't expect that drawing lots could involve so many things.

Others wanted to draw but missed, but he didn't want to draw but got hit.

This matter...

"Li Qiao, this matter is settled. The things will be placed at your house and kept by you. Everyone can supervise them until the old deaf lady's birthday."

The second uncle made the decision without any explanation.

"Oh well."

Li Qiao reluctantly agreed.

Then, he opened the door and watched the second uncle and Ge Li put everything at home.

"Okay, Li Qiao, I'll leave the things to you, you have to take good care of them!"

The second uncle smiled and patted Li Qiao on the shoulder.

Then his tone suddenly turned cold and he said, "By the way, if something is lost or damaged, shouldn't we make a compensation plan first?"

When everyone heard this, they realized that this matter should be confirmed first.

If something goes wrong, it will be a loss for the entire hospital.

The person who keeps these things cannot escape responsibility no matter what!

Qin Huairu: “I think it’s better to pay double the compensation!”

Silly Zhu: "Twice is too little! It should be made heavier!"

Xu Damao: "If you do this, the boy from the Li family will definitely not be willing to keep it!"

Jia Zhangshi: "Everything has been put in his house, but is there anything he doesn't want to do?"

Third uncle: "Don't punish too harshly, otherwise the person who keeps it will suffer a loss!"

The first uncle: "Then triple the price!"

The second uncle: "The first uncle is right."

Then, the second uncle turned to Li Qiao and said: "Li Qiao, take good care of it. I will come to check from time to time. Don't worry, our hospital has always been very safe. There will be no petty theft or people taking advantage of it."

Not at all. Don’t worry too much.”

The first uncle: "The meeting is dismissed."

Everyone dispersed in a hurry.

Li Qiao was left standing at the door with a confused look on his face.

Looking at the pile of supplies in the room, he always felt as if he had fallen into a trap.

But what exactly is this trap?

But he couldn't understand.

"Forget it, be careful yourself, just think that the second uncle is really kind!"

Li Qiao stopped thinking about it, closed the door, and started cooking dinner.
