Chapter 006: Sticks Buy Grimaces, Jia Zhang Scrambles For Meat

When Stickong came home, he asked his grandma, Jia Zhang, for five cents.

Although Jia Zhang is stingy, he is quite generous to the only grandson of the Jia family.

Bang Geng took the money, went to the supply and marketing agency to buy a grimace mask, and went home to find a piece of white silk.

This piece of white silk was bought when Stickong's father, Jia Dongxu, died.

Stick put the white silk and grimace mask away, and stared viciously at Su Chen's house through the backyard door.

………………

Su Chen went home and took a look. Seeing that Li Xiaorou was still sleeping, he entrusted the neighbor deaf old lady to take care of her. He was going to buy some food.

It's rare to be rich, and I'm sorry for my stomach if I don't have something delicious.

There are two vegetable markets near Nanluoguxiang, Dongdan Vegetable Market and Chaoyang Vegetable Market.

The Dongdan Vegetable Market is a bit further away, but the market is big and has everything.

The Chaoyang Vegetable Market is closer, but there are relatively few things.

Su Chen didn't intend to save money, so he took the bus to Dongdan Vegetable Market.

When we arrived at the vegetable market, Su Chen looked around curiously.

After all, it was evening, and many vegetable stalls had already been withdrawn, but it was a large vegetable market after all, and there was everything you wanted to buy.

Su Chen bought some vegetables casually, and hurried to the meat stall to buy meat.

"So many people buy meat!"

In front of the meat stall, there was a long queue.

Many people who just got off work went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables without going home.

Su Chen was a little worried about whether he could be in the queue.

To travel such a distance, the ticket still costs 20 cents, if you can't buy it, you will lose money.

Although there are quite a few people buying meat, Su Chen took a closer look and found that most of them only bought one or two taels at a time.

It is completely different from the unit of catty in the previous life.

But even so, when Su Chen was approaching, there were about two catties of meat left on the stall.

It is doomed that some people who line up will not be able to buy meat.

There are seven or eight people ahead of Su Chen.

If we wait until Su Chen, there may not be much left.

Su Chen suddenly had an idea and walked to the booth, intending to discuss it with the people in front of him.

A middle-aged woman who was about to buy meat asked in surprise, "Young man, what's the matter?"

"Sister, it's like this. My family is going to have a wedding banquet tomorrow and I need to buy more meat. Can you give it to me?"

"How can I do that? I rushed here after get off work, and the two children in the family are greedy for this!"

"Do you see if this works? Just give it to me, and I'll give you a pound of meat ticket!"

"A pound of meat ticket?"

The middle-aged woman's eyes widened.

Everyone in line looked at Su Chen in disbelief.

At this time, meat tickets are worth more than cash with the same face value. A catty of pork is only seventy-eight cents, but a catty of pork tickets can be sold for one piece in private transactions.

Everyone thought it incredible that this young man bribed others with a catty of meat tickets just to buy some pork.

"Here!" Su Chen took out a one-jin meat ticket and handed it over without hesitation.

Only then did the middle-aged woman believe it was true, and at this moment, she didn't care whether the two children in the family were greedy or not, so she took it as soon as she reached out her hand.

She was afraid that Su Chen would regret it, so she turned around and ran away quickly.

Then Su Chen said to the butcher at the stall: "I bought all this piece of meat!"

"You...do you still have meat tickets?" the man asked.

The man weighed the rest of the meat while talking, and it weighed a pound!

Su Chen took out a two-jin meat ticket and handed it over.

Seeing that there was one, the man quickly tied up the meat on the case with a rope and handed it to Su Chen.

Su Chen paid another 1.70 cents, then picked up the meat beautifully and left.

Only then did the people lining up behind them come to their senses!

"Hey, we're queuing for nothing!"

"My son's date will come to the door tomorrow, a little flesh doesn't look so ugly!"

"Then you go to the black market!"

"Who dares to go to the black market? A catty of pork costs three yuan, so you might as well kill me!"

"Where did that young man get so many meat tickets?"

"It must be the child of some official family! He is also a prodigal son, just to buy some meat, and the one-jin meat ticket is given away as a gift. The meat ticket can be sold for two yuan on the black market!"

"Hey, people don't care at all, the meat ticket must be issued by the unit. It's hard for ordinary people like us, even if we have money, we can't afford it!"

"..."

Su Chen spent another dime to take the bus back to the courtyard.

The third uncle, who was leaning against the gate of the courtyard and eating melon seeds, saw the meat Su Chen picked up, his eyes widened.

"Su Chen, how much does it cost for such a big piece of meat!"

"Such a big piece of pork, it's too gluttonous, I have such a big mouth - the water will come down!"

"This Su Chen has had too many hard times. He has just made a few bucks and then he got into trouble, what a prodigal!"

Some people are greedy, and some people have a very sour tone.

These days, it is already a luxury for a family to buy half a catty of meat during Chinese New Year.

Su Chen is good, the meat must weigh two catties no matter what.

Su Chen responded with a few words casually, and went home with the meat and vegetables.

Unexpectedly, I met Jia Zhang again in the middle court.

Jia Zhang's eyes were shining, staring at the pork in Su Chen's hand, his mouth was watering.

Before Su Chen could speak, Jia Zhang spoke first: "Su Chen, look at how much money you have made today, you and Li Xiaorou definitely can't eat so much meat. Our family Banggen, Xiaodang and Huaihua are growing up Well, just give me the meat, and come to our house for dinner at night, so you won’t have to do it!”

As he said that, Jia Zhang stretched out his hand to grab the meat.

Su Chen was amused at the time, and he turned to avoid it.

Jia Zhang's legs and feet were not flexible, he grabbed the air with one hand, and fell to the ground with a thud.

Su Chen ignored her and walked away with the meat.

"Woo, brother, I want a brother! Huh..."

As soon as Su Chen walked to the door of the house, he heard Li Xiaorou crying loudly in the room.

Seeing Su Chen push the door and come in, Li Xiaorou broke free from the deaf old lady's hand, rushed over to hug Su Chen's leg, and cried, "Brother wants Xiaorou! Brother wants Xiaorou!"

Since her grandfather left, Su Chen is the only family member left for Li Xiaorou, and she cannot leave Su Chen for a moment.

Just now I woke up and saw that Su Chen was not at home, thinking that Su Chen didn't want her like my grandfather, her big eyes were red from crying.

"Xiaorou, don't cry, why would my brother not want you? My brother likes Xiaorou the most!"

Su Chen quickly knelt down and hugged Li Xiaorou, took out a piece of white rabbit toffee from his pocket, and said, "Look, brother is going to buy something delicious for Xiaorou!"

When Li Xiaorou heard it, she burst into tears!

Su Chen will peel off the candy wrapper, put the candy in Li Xiaorou's mouth, then stand up and say to the deaf old lady: "Old lady, I will have dinner at my place tonight. Help me take care of Xiaorou for a while, and I will invite a guest." come over!"

"No, Xiao Rou follows her brother!"

Seeing that Su Chen was about to leave again, Li Xiaorou quickly hugged his thigh again.

"Okay, Xiaorou and brother go together!" Su Chen picked up Xiaorou and said to the deaf old lady: "Old lady, then go for a walk around first, and I'll call you when dinner is ready!"

"Okay, good grandson! It's better for you to treat my wife and me, and you and Shazhu are the only ones who are good in this compound, and nothing else is good for you!"

Su Chen smiled and did not refute the old lady.

The deaf old lady is good at knowing people, but she misunderstood Silly Zhu.

But Su Chen knew that the deaf old lady would not suffer any disadvantages, so there was no need to remind her.

Su Chen took Xiao Rou to Zhang Fan's house.

Zhang Fan is the nephew of Zhang Jianguo, the director of the Red Star School, and the school is very close to his family.

Zhang Fan usually likes to drink, and when he heard that Su Chen invited him to dinner, and said that it was to thank him for doing things for the people today, he immediately agreed.

Back home, Su Chen put Li Xiaorou down and started cooking.

Although he is not a professional chef, Su Chen is generous, with all kinds of seasonings and oils in sufficient quantities.

As soon as the shallots were fried, a scent wafted across the yard.

When the braised pork was about to come out of the pan, everyone in the courtyard was alarmed.
