Chapter 662 The people from Zhaojiazhuang are coming
The red flames licked the black bottom of the pot.
Sizzling...
As the pork is put into the pot, an alluring aroma suddenly fills the room.
Jia Zhangshi, Banggan, Huang Yanling, Xiaodang and Xiaohuaihua were all gathered around the iron pot, all of them sucking at the iron pot.
Jia Zhang suddenly thought of something, her eyes lit up, she turned to Banggeng and said, "Banggeng, go and open our door quickly."
Xiaodang couldn't understand, and frowned and asked: "Grandma, no matter who cooks the delicious food in our compound, they all do it secretly. They close the door and hide at home to eat for fear of being discovered. Why should we?"
Open the door?"
"You are still young and don't understand anything!" Jia Zhang was sitting on a chair with squinting eyes and said triumphantly: "Those people eat meat secretly because they are afraid of being discovered and afraid that their neighbors will take advantage!
We are the Jia family, what are we afraid of!"
Huang Yanling also woke up now, nodded and said: "In addition, this is also a good opportunity to prove our strength. In the past, those neighbors were unwilling to lend money or lend us things. The biggest reason was that our family was poor. Now seeing that we
If the family eats so much meat, they will no longer have to worry about it.
Maybe it won’t be so difficult when we borrow things in the future.”
Xiaodang smiled bitterly and shook her head. She was a little confused about the Jia family's thinking.
In the current Jia family, Qin Huairu can earn ten yuan a month, and her monthly salary is twenty-five yuan. Xiao Huaihua also earns fifteen yuan a month as a temporary worker.
Bangge and Huang Yanling don’t know what they are doing, but they are making a lot of money.
Adding up all this money, the Jia family's income has exceeded that of many families in the courtyard.
but.
But the Jia family still likes to take advantage of others.
It's like not taking advantage and feeling uncomfortable all over.
It's just that she has recently been with another person. If everything goes well, she will get married in a few months, and she won't be able to care so much.
....
Things developed just as Jia Zhang thought.
After the door of Jia's house was opened, the aroma from the house instantly wafted out, and the courtyard was immediately filled with an alluring aroma of meat.
In these days, supplies are scarce, and people's stomachs lack oil and water. This fragrance flows along their nostrils, penetrates into their stomachs, and draws out their souls.
Soon a lot of people gathered in front of Jia's house.
Mrs. Jia Zhang had already appeared at the door and greeted the residents enthusiastically.
"Aunt Jia, are your family eating meat today?" Aunt Zhang asked curiously.
Mrs. Jia Zhang was proud: "Not only the meat, but also a hen weighing three kilograms and a large carp weighing five kilograms were all brought back by my Banggen."
"Ah, your family is so rich now, can you return to me the bowl of stick noodles you borrowed from my family last year?" Auntie Zhang took the opportunity to ask.
Mrs. Jia Zhang did not expect that this person was so ignorant that instead of envying her, he asked her to collect old debts.
If their Jia family borrows something, can that be called borrowing?
That’s take!
"Auntie Zhang, isn't it just a bowl of stick noodles? We can miss yours, just wait a while." Mrs. Jia Zhang said angrily.
"Wait for a while, I've been waiting for two years." Aunt Zhang's wife was a little anxious.
At this time, several neighbors came over and saw the Zhang family's aunt collecting debts from the Jia and Zhang family, and they all gathered around.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, your family lent me two kilograms of white flour three years ago. When will you pay it back?"
"And my family. When Qin Huairu was having trouble, you said things were hard at home and you borrowed two eggs from my family."
"Last spring, when Banggeng fell ill, you borrowed two cents from my family."
.....
Jia Zhang was stunned when she heard this.
It's impossible that the Jia family has borrowed so many things.
These people must be framing her.
Absolutely!
Jia Zhang laughed twice: "Oh, these are all old things. Originally, I could deny these things, but who made me the most reasonable person? You can rest assured that after a while, our Jia family will have something
After receiving the money, I will give it all back to you."
The neighbors in the compound have heard this sentence countless times.
Every time it takes a while and then there is no result.
The Zhang family's aunt said with some embarrassment: "Jia's family's aunt, your family already has meat, how can you still have no money?"
As soon as these words came out, the residents responded one after another.
"Yes, in addition to meat, there are also chickens and fish! We are reluctant to eat these things even during the Chinese New Year."
"How can you do this if you have money to eat meat but don't have money to pay back to others?"
"That's right, that's right, if we don't get the money today, we won't leave."
....
Jia Zhang's face turned dark instantly.
She never expected that these neighbors would be so ignorant.
Sooner or later, Banggen will be prosperous. The Jia family lent them money to take care of them.
When the stick memes are developed, can we not support them?
But at this time, she also knew that the Jia family had lost the trust of the residents. Even if she explained again, these brainless residents would not understand.
Snapped!
The door of Jia's house suddenly closed.
The residents in the house looked at each other.
"What, what's going on?"
"Yes, if you have money, pay back, but if you don't have money, you have to give me something!"
"What happens after you just close the door?"
"How about we rush over and knock the door open."
"No, don't mind. If we do that, I will definitely not be able to spare us."
"Besides, we are all neighbors in the same compound. If the fight is so stiff, how can we meet again in the future?"
"Yes, we are all neighbors. We can't see each other when we look up but not when we look down. It's so embarrassing."
The residents who were watching were still soft-hearted after all. Even if Mrs. Jia and Zhang were riding on their necks, they couldn't bear to tear themselves apart.
The residents shook their heads and were about to go home and continue cooking when they suddenly stopped.
They saw a group of commune members coming in from outside. Each member was carrying a hoe and a shovel, with angry expressions on their faces, looking like they were not to be trifled with.
The leader among them was known to all the residents in the compound. He was Zhang Youcai who had lived in Jia's house for a while.
Seeing that something was wrong, Aunt Zhang stepped forward to stop Zhang Youcai and said with a smile: "Old Zhang, didn't Mr. Jia Zhang say you went back to your hometown, why are you back again?"
Zhang Youcai lived in the Jia family, which would have seemed a bit strange if he was not a relative.
Therefore, Mrs. Jia and Zhang announced to the public that Zhang Youcai was a distant relative of hers, and she came to seek refuge with him because her family was too poor to survive.
Mrs. Jia Zhang was a kind-hearted person. Although she had never met Zhang Youcai a few times and her relatives had long since broken up, she still took him in.
This is also one of Jia Zhang's few contributions.
Zhang Youcai changed his usual decadence, adjusted his collar, and said coldly: "Of course I'm here to collect debts."
Upon hearing the debt collection, the residents who were about to leave stopped and turned to look at Zhang Youcai.
"Zhang Youcai, didn't Jia Zhang take you in out of kindness? What kind of debt are you asking for?"
"Good intentions?"
Zhang Youcai originally thought about rushing in and pulling out the stalks, but when he thought about it carefully, if he did that, he would be accused of being unreasonable by these people.
Zhang Youcai turned around, and the fierceness on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by incomparable sadness and extreme pity.
"You guys may not know that the reason why I stayed at Jia's house a while ago was to collect debts!"
As soon as these words came out, the residents in the courtyard were stunned, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
"No way, the Jia family is from the capital after all. No matter how poor they are, their lives are better than those in the countryside."
"How could you borrow money from the members?"
"Yeah, I think these people are talking nonsense."
....
Zhang Youcai heard the discussion and was not in a hurry. He smiled and explained: "You may also know that our village raises one or two more pigs every year."
The residents nodded.
In these days, most people in the city come from the countryside, and they also have many relatives in the countryside.
I am very aware of the situation in rural areas.
The commune members could only work in the fields every day, and had almost no way to obtain food stamps or money.
But children need money to go to school and the elderly need money for medical treatment.
Many communes will raise some pigs privately, without any plan. When the pigs grow up, they will secretly kill them and bring them to the pigeon market in the city to exchange them for money.
In fact, this situation is also clear above.
But who would care about the members who are too poor to afford medical treatment?
Zhang Youcai went on to say: "The pig in our village weighs one or two hundred kilograms. It was raised by the whole village by saving food and water. All the expenses of our village members in the coming year will be borne by that pig.
After a while, we killed the pigs, and I took the pork to the pigeon market in the capital, but I was deceived by the Jia family's stick dogs."
The residents in the courtyard were shocked.
"Liaring pork from the members of the commune is simply lacking in virtue!"
"Yes, those pork are people's livelihood money."
"I asked why the Jia family had eaten meat several times in a row recently. It turned out to be a lie."
"The Jia family has really gone too far this time."
The residents were already angry because the Jia family had not repaid the money they owed, but now they were filled with indignation when they heard what the members were going through.
The commotion outside was so loud that the Jia family inside the house naturally heard it, but no one dared to open the door.
Just kidding, those members of the sub-community are like wolves and tigers, and they even carry shovels and hoes. If they go out at this time, they will definitely be beaten up.
Besides, they just made a table of dishes and haven’t started eating yet!
Those are all meat and vegetables. If they are wasted, you will feel uneasy for the rest of your life.
After Zhao Youcai explained clearly to the residents, he suddenly became angry when he saw that the door of Jia's house had not been opened.
He turned his head and looked at a dark and shapely member behind him: "Zhao Erhan, open the door!"
There are two idiots in Zhaojiazhuang, Zhao Dahan and Zhao Erhan. They are brothers, and their brains have not been fully functioning since they were young.
In summer, I wear a big cotton-padded jacket and run around the village; in winter, I dance naked in the snow.
Their parents passed away early. Fortunately, most of them are relatives in Zhaojiazhuang, and the villagers can't just ignore them.
The two of them grew up eating food from hundreds of families. Logically speaking, they were hungry and well-fed, and their health should not be as good as that of ordinary people.
but.
Maybe it's because they have a big heart and a wide world. Both idiots are tall and thick, and they still have a lot of strength. They can hug the cow's neck and throw the old scalper to the ground.
Zhao Youcai discovered the talents of the two idiots and assigned them to patrol the village to prevent petty theft.
Don't tell me, these two idiots don't understand the world and don't care about humanity. They caught a lot of people with unclean hands and feet, and the atmosphere in Zhaojiazhuang has been corrected.
Today Zhaojiazhuang went to the capital. In order to prevent accidents, Zhao Youcai deliberately left Zhao Dahan in Zhaojiazhuang to protect the village, and took Zhao Erhan with him.
Zhao Erhan was nibbling sweet potatoes. When he heard Zhao Youcai's words, he looked at the half-eaten sweet potato in his hand and was reluctant to throw it away. He stuffed it into his mouth three times.
Click click click.
He stretched his neck to swallow it and strode to the front of Jia's house.
He snorted and grabbed the door of Jia's house with both hands. His arm muscles trembled, and the door started to sway.
The onlookers were stunned when they saw this scene.
Generally speaking, the door is plugged in from the inside. If you want to break in, the best way is to kick the door hard and break the stick inside.
How could anyone just lift the door up to the door frame?
The Jia family inside the house were stunned at first when they saw the door shaking.
The clever Huang Yanling suddenly shouted: "Oh my God, there's going to be an earthquake."
The word "earthquake" made everyone panic.
These days, comrades from the sub-district office often publicize fire and earthquake prevention knowledge in the compound.
Everyone is aware of the dangers of earthquakes.
But no one expected that the one who responded the fastest was the oldest Jia Zhang.
I saw her throwing away the chicken drumstick in her hand and ducking under the table.
Only then did Bangge react.
Yes, Director Zhang from the subdistrict office said that when an earthquake occurs, the safest way is to hide under the table.
Bangge also wanted to get under the table, but Jia Zhang was like a big fat pig, taking up all the seats by herself.
"Grandma, step aside!" Bangge yelled at the top of his lungs.
"Hey, eldest grandson, you are young. Even if the roof collapses, you can still withstand it. Just let grandma do it!" Mrs. Jia Zhang said, holding her head with both hands, huddled in the corner, making a standard gesture
defensive posture.
If the street office clerk who taught earthquake prevention knowledge had seen it, he would definitely praise Mrs. Jia Zhang as a good student.
BangGeng was so anxious that he almost jumped up, but he had no choice but to run into the house and hide under the bed.
At this time, Qin Huairu, Xiaodang, and Xiaohuaihua, who had been unable to find a place to hide, also reacted.
Just about to run to the back room.
boom!
With a loud noise, the entire door was pulled shut by Zhao Erhan.
"ah!"
Zhao Erhan yelled and threw the door and door frame into the flower pond next to it, splashing a cloud of dust.
The onlookers woke up and took a deep breath.
What did this guy eat to grow up with such strength?
Everyone in the Jia family was stunned when they saw this scene.
for a long time.
Only then did Huang Yanling react and said quietly: "It's not an earthquake."
This door is still original and is over a hundred years old. In addition, the door frame has been removed. If you want to install a new door, it will cost at least seven or eight yuan.
Qin Huairu was so heartbroken that her blood dripped, and she looked at Zhao Erhan coldly: "You, why did you tear down the door of my house?!"
Zhao Erhan said foolishly: "The village chief asked me to dismantle the door. If I don't dismantle the door, I can't eat sweet potatoes."
Qin Huairu looked over Zhang Erhan's shoulder and saw Zhao Youcai.
