Siheyuan: Start as a truck driver
Chapter 193 Leftovers are not leftovers
"Master, it's really thanks to you this time. If you hadn't stopped Silly Zhu in time, I don't know what would have happened to Xie Cheng's wedding."
Yan Bugui helped Yan Jiecheng up, turned his head, and spoke to Wang Weidong with a grateful expression.
"This is what I should do as the master of the courtyard." Wang Weidong nodded. If Silly Zhu beat Yan Jiecheng outside, he would not take action even if Yan Jiecheng was crippled. But it was different in the courtyard.
As the master of a courtyard house, while gaining respect from the residents due to this status, he also has to bear corresponding responsibilities.
At this time, Yan Jiecheng had been beaten to a bruised nose and face, his mouth was broken, his hair was messy, there was a wound on his eye, and there was blood on the corner of his mouth.
The new Chinese tunic suit he was wearing was also torn.
How embarrassed and embarrassed it looks.
The third aunt saw this and was so distressed that she jumped to her feet and cursed: "Damn Silly Zhu, he is a lunatic. Today is the day of our family's wedding. He tortured and beat us like this, and
There is no justice! No, I have to report it to the police station."
"Okay, I'll go to the police station later and ask them to take Si Zhu away."
It was a good thing to send Silly Zhu in, so Wang Weidong naturally nodded in agreement.
Unexpectedly, Huang Xiaocui, who had been sitting on the bed watching the movie, stood up at this time.
She walked up to Wang Weidong and said softly: "Master, our family was beaten by a fool, and I felt so bad that I wanted to send the fool to the fence, but today it's ours
It’s a big day. I’m afraid if the police station is alerted.”
Speaking of this, Huang Xiaocui paused and continued: "The impact is not very good."
"I just got married and I have brought trouble to my husband. If word spreads, someone will definitely chew on me."
"This..." Wang Weidong frowned. He was a little confused about Huang Xiaocui's intention.
In this era, the eradication of superstition is in full swing. Even if some people are jealous of Huang Xiaocui's beauty, they dare not call her a cheat.
There must be another reason why Huang Xiaocui didn't want to report it to the police station.
But due to the lack of key information, he couldn't guess it for a while.
Yan Bugui was born before liberation and had always believed in these things. Hearing this, his face turned pale with fright, and he looked at Wang Weidong and said.
"Young masters are all residents of the same compound. Although Silly Zhu is too much, there is no need to send him to the fence."
"Also, when Lao He left, I promised him to take care of Silly Zhu and He Yuyu."
The third aunt also echoed: "Yes, yes, today is Jie Cheng's big day. It is originally a happy event, there is no need to make it so unpleasant."
Since the Yan family doesn't pursue the case, Wang Weidong will not take the initiative to stand up for them: "Okay, then it's decided. If it's done, go clean up and change your clothes. You'll have to toast to your relatives and friends later."
Huang Xiaocui glanced at Wang Weidong reluctantly, turned around and helped Yan Jiecheng toward the back room.
At this time, the young people who were having a wedding ceremony in the house lost interest and wandered out of the house when they saw what happened.
When attending a wedding banquet, there are two eternal themes, one is the wedding ceremony, and the other is eating the banquet.
Liu Guangfu and Liu Guangtian didn't even eat breakfast in the morning, just to have a big meal at the banquet.
Although it was not noon yet, they were already hungry.
"Let's go to the cook to get some food."
The two brothers touched their bellies, looked at each other, smiled, and walked quickly to the door.
Wedding banquets these days are not so particular, especially wedding banquets like Yanbu Gui's that are held at the door of one's home. Guests can always go to the cook to get some food mats to satisfy their bellies.
“Spicy and sour cabbage smells good.”
"Look how delicious this baby cabbage is when fried."
"Oh my goodness, every radish slice is the same thickness. What an amazing cook!"
The two brothers took chopsticks and picked up the dishes one by one to taste. It must be said that as a chef, Nan Yi's cooking skills were better than Sha Zhu's.
Even though they only had green vegetables, Liu Guangfu was still very satisfied.
But after taking a few bites, Liu Guangfu felt something was wrong.
He stopped his chopsticks and pushed Liu Guangqi who was picking up cabbage: "Hey, don't you think something is missing?"
Liu Guangqi put down his bowl and chopsticks and scratched his head: "What?"
His eyes glanced at the dishes for a long time, his expression suddenly changed, and he couldn't help but exclaim.
"Oh my god, there's no meat!"
That's right, the plates on the table are all filled with vegetables, and even with a magnifying glass it's impossible to find a bit of minced meat.
If it's a home-cooked meal, it doesn't matter if there's no meat. After all, life is hard for everyone these days.
But.
This is a wedding banquet, and each family also paid a full eighty cents in gift money. It doesn’t have any meat, how can it be justified?
Liu Guangqi's shout soon alerted the guests who came to attend the wedding banquet, and everyone gathered around.
"It's really weird, there's not even any meat or vegetables!"
"The Yan family has gone too far. I haven't eaten for two days, so I just ate a big meal at noon today."
"Tsk, tsk, I've attended seven or eight wedding banquets today, and this is the first time I've seen one without meat or vegetables."
"Yan Laoji, Yan Laoji, you are so shrewd in your calculations!"
Meat is in short supply these days, so you need meat tickets to buy it.
Ordinary people can't get meat tickets at all on weekdays.
However, families holding weddings and weddings can apply to the sub-district office, and the sub-district office will allocate a certain amount of meat tickets to them.
Guests come to the wedding banquet not only to congratulate the newlyweds, but also to eat meat.
Now that there is no meat, I really can’t bear it!
"Come on, let's talk to Yan Bugui!"
I don’t know who took the lead, but all the guests rushed into Yan’s house.
At this time, Wang Weidong was sitting on a chair drinking tea. He was shocked when he saw so many people coming in.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Da Mao, what's going on?"
"The Yan family didn't provide any meat this time..." Xu Damao recounted what he had just seen outside.
Wang Weidong's eyes suddenly widened. Good guy, Yan Bugui didn't even give up his face in order to save money.
Looking at the attitude of the guests, it is impossible to open the banquet today without clarifying the details.
Fortunately, I listened to Guan Tingting's advice and had a full meal this morning.
Wang Weidong was also happy to watch the excitement, picking up the enamel jar and sipping tea.
Next to him, Yan Bugui felt a little uncomfortable. Looking at the guests gathered around him, there was thick sweat on his forehead.
"Everyone, everyone, listen to my explanation!"
"Explanation? Can explanation be eaten as meat? We don't want to listen to explanation, we want to eat meat!"
The older guests among the guests were concerned about the Yan family's reputation and did not do anything excessive. The young men could not control that much.
"Everyone, please calm down first..."
"Calm down? How can we be calm without meat?!"
"Yes, we want to eat meat!"
"Mr. Yan, if you don't give me an explanation, we won't be able to hold the banquet today!"
Yan Bugui was so anxious that he almost cried. He never expected that just a little bit of meat would be so attractive to the guests.
No wonder.
Yan Bugui often goes fishing, and he can catch a few fish each time. He occasionally goes fishing, and he is not that greedy.
It's different for others. If they don't have a bite of meat all year round, they'll be extremely greedy.
Yan Bugui regretted it now. If he had known this would be the result, he would have gritted his teeth and bought half a catty of meat.
But it was almost ten o'clock in the morning, and even if I wanted to buy meat, the meat in the vegetable market was sold out.
On the one hand, there is the dilemma of not being able to buy meat, and on the other hand, there are guests who insist on eating meat. The situation is in a stalemate.
Just when Yan Bugui didn't know what to do, a crisp voice came from behind the crowd.
"Dad, my uncle has meat at his house. If you don't mind, I will ride my bicycle to my uncle's house now and get some."
The sound was like the sound of nature echoing in Yan Bugui's ears. Yan Bugui raised his head and looked at Huang Xiaocui with emotion on his face.
"Xiao Cui, thank you. Dad really appreciates you."
"Dad, you're welcome, we are all one family, there is no need to distinguish so clearly."
Huang Xiaocui smiled and turned to look at Yan Jiefang: "Brother Jiefang, can you go get the meat with your sister-in-law?"
"Okay, okay." Yan Jiefang nodded hurriedly.
The two left the courtyard on bicycles and brought back about four to five kilograms of meat in less than half an hour.
"Dad, I'm sorry, you also know that meat cannot be stored for a long time, and my godfather doesn't have much meat at home."
"Son, don't say such things. Dad really wants to thank you this time."
Yan Bugui looked at the brightly colored flesh, and the corners of his eyes became moist.
He sighed in his heart, this time Xie Cheng really married a good wife!
He is good-looking, has a rich family background, and is very capable.
It's really good luck to find this guy.
When the guests saw that there was meat to eat, they also praised Huang Xiaocui.
"Look how good Yan Jiecheng's daughter-in-law is."
"Yes, Yan Jiecheng is really lucky. His former wife Yu Li is very good."
"With Huang Xiaocui in the Yan family, the future will definitely become more prosperous."
.....
With the meat, Nan Yi breathed a sigh of relief and used what he had learned in his life to make more than a dozen delicious dishes with the four or five kilograms of meat.
Yan Jiecheng's wedding banquet ended with the praises of the guests.
Nan Yi was preparing to take the remaining dishes back as promised.
Although there are not many vegetables left, most of them are cabbage, radish and the like, but it can still be filled by the children.
Yan Bugui, who was seeing off guests, saw Nan Yi putting vegetables in the bag and stopped talking to the guests and strode up to Nan Yi.
"Master Nan, I'm sorry, those dishes are not leftovers, you can't take them away."
These words confused Nan Yiqian. He looked at the radish in his hand, then raised his head and looked at Yan Bugui with a puzzled expression.
"Third uncle, these dishes are just leftovers. Why do you say they are not leftovers? Are you trying to cheat?"
"Ahem, what nonsense are you talking about! I, Lao Yan, am an old teacher and the third master of the courtyard, how could I cheat on you!" Yanbu's little eyes behind the tortoise shell frame blinked: "The leftovers have been eaten by the guests.
We have eaten, and the dishes in your hands are not leftovers!"
"The ones that were eaten are leftovers, these are not leftovers..." Nan Yi seemed to understand Yan Bugui's thinking.
"Yes, yes, I have made an agreement with Mr. Wang from the vegetable market in advance to return these dishes to him." Yan Bugui nodded.
Nan Yi clutched the carrot and froze in the cold wind. Even if he was unfamiliar with the world, he knew at this time that he had fallen into the trap designed by Yan Bugui in advance.
If the leftovers are eaten, the uneaten food is not leftovers and must be returned to the person who bought the food. In other words, he cannot take anything away.
He has been busy all day in love!
The clay figurine still has a certain fire nature, let alone the chef Nan Yi.
He grabbed the carrot and looked at Yan Bugui with wide eyes: "Yan Bugui, are you kidding me?"
"Ahem, look at what you kid, what are you saying? We made an agreement before that you would make the banquet, and we would not pay for it. You are allowed to take away the leftovers. Now that there are no leftovers, we have nothing to do with it.
What does it have to do with it?" Yan Bugui shook his head and said, "I heard that you come from a family of royal chefs, so you should know that what you say is like a nail."
"You're lying!" Nan Yi glared at Yan Bugui.
"Haha..." Yan Bugui's hearty laughter sounded: "So what if you cheat? Anyway, neither of us suffered any loss."
As he spoke, his face turned cold, and he said threateningly: "Also, it is illegal to do private work. If you dare to make a big fuss, I will sue you to the steel rolling mill."
Nan Yi has been a cook for so many years and has done a lot of private work. He has never met such a host.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But he had to consider Yan Bugui's threat.
The director of the canteen also knew that the cooks were doing private work, but he always turned a blind eye.
If Yan Bugui complained to the steel rolling mill, even the director would not be able to protect Nan Yi.
Nan Yi used to be a very arrogant person who would rather bend than bend. He could be punished by cleaning the toilet because he did not give in to the deputy director.
but.
Now he is no longer alone, he still has a wife and children to support.
If he loses his job in the canteen of the steel rolling mill, how will he support his wife and children?
For a moment, various thoughts flashed through Nan Yi's mind, but in the end he gritted his teeth and endured it.
"Okay, okay, Yan Bugui, you're fine."
"Of course, of course I'm fine, hahaha~"
Yanbu Gui saw that Nan Yi was subdued and laughed excitedly.
He looked at the third aunt behind him: "Did you see it? Today I saved at least two yuan for our Yan family!"
"Awesome, in terms of calculations, no one in the whole capital is as good as you!" The third aunt gave a thumbs up.
.....
Nan Yi left the courtyard and pushed his bicycle to walk in the cold wind.
I have been busy all day and haven’t earned a penny. What should I tell Liang Ladi when I get back?
Liang Ladi is now pregnant and needs nutritional supplements to replenish her body....
Alas, life is difficult!
Just when Nan Yi was looking at the fallen leaves dancing in the wind on the roadside, he was filled with emotion.
A voice came from behind.
"What? Are you being played by Yan Bugui?"
The person who came was none other than Wang Weidong.
He had just seen Yan Bugui arguing with Nan Yi and deliberately waited for Nan Yi here.
"It's Director Liu... He is indeed being played." Nan Yi smiled bitterly, with a trace of doubt on his face: "Director Liu, tell me, why are some people so bad-hearted in this world?
Woolen cloth!"
