Chapter 418 The red envelope of 8 cents and 8 is also due to her being able to give it away
Faced with everyone's contempt and condemnation, Huang Jianguo blushed and his neck was thick with shame. He turned to Peng Fang and cursed.
"What did you do? Didn't you agree to pack 8 yuan and 8 cents last night? Why did you only pack 8 cents and 8 cents? Where did the 8 yuan go?"
Peng Fang's mind also turned around, and she slapped her thigh fiercely, "Oh, I counted 8 yuan and 8 cents last night. I don't know what happened. Why is there only 8 cents and 8 cents left?"
Did you drop the 8 yuan on the bed?"
Huang Jianguo immediately said: "Then why don't you go in and look for it!?"
"Yes, yes, I'll go look for it right now."
Soon, Peng Fang came out of the house holding the 8 yuan she had just found.
"I found it. I found it. It really fell under the bed. Look, there's still dust on it."
Yun Mo did not expose the couple's drama, "It doesn't matter if there is ashes, they can still be spent."
Peng Fang smiled sheepishly, then reluctantly wrapped the 8 yuan in her hand in red paper together with the 8 cents and stuffed it into Lingchuan's hand.
"Xiao Ling, this is a little thought from your second uncle and I. It's 8 yuan, 8 cents and 8 cents, and we'll pay for it all the way."
Lingchuan accepted the red envelope this time and said, "Thank you, second uncle and second aunt."
Yun Mo also handed over the things in her hands.
Peng Fang took the things and couldn't wait to open them to read, when Yun Mo suddenly made a sound.
"Second uncle, second aunt, Lingchuan and I are going to our third uncle's house in the town, so we'll leave first."
Yun Mo's words successfully diverted Peng Fang's attention, "You have to leave so soon, don't you want to sit here anymore?"
"No, I'd better go or come back early. I have other things to do."
After sending Yun Mo and Ling Chuan away, Peng Fang immediately ran home and took out everything Yun Mo had brought.
"Hey, Fenjiu, your niece and nephew-in-law are quite generous. This wine costs 20 yuan a bottle."
"You're so generous! It's just such a broken bottle of wine, who cares about it!"
One can imagine Peng Fang's disappointment when the Wuliangye she had longed for turned into Fenjiu.
In fact, in Lu'an Town, a bottle of Fenjiu worth 20 yuan is actually quite good. How many people's monthly income cannot reach 20 yuan.
But compared with Wuliangye, which costs 60 or 70 yuan a bottle, Fenjiu, which costs 20 yuan, is not enough.
Everyone didn't know Peng Fang's inner expectations. When they heard Peng Fang cursing, they just thought she was greedy.
"I said Peng Fang, are you satisfied? You gave me 80 cents, and they didn't say anything and still gave you generous gifts. You've made a lot of money."
"That's right, no matter what age you are, you can't even give me 80 cents. It's embarrassing to tell anyone."
Although Peng Fang claimed that the money fell under the bed, no one present was a fool. Even if the money was accidentally dropped, how could he have dropped exactly 8 yuan?
"There is also a pair of Smoked Red Double Happiness. They are sold individually for 6 cents and 50 cents per pack. This one costs 6 yuan."
Double Happiness cigarettes are considered to be mid-range cigarettes, and they are rare in places like Xiacun.
But all Peng Fang could think about was the 40-yuan Zhonghua that Lingchuan bought for the Huang family. It was strange that she could take a fancy to the 6-yuan Double Happiness.
Everyone continued: "There are two packs of red bean cakes, plus a pack of fruit candies. This bag will cost thirty or forty yuan."
According to the rules in the countryside here, the general entrance gift is two packs of white sugar or two pounds of brown sugar, a bottle of local tribute wine, and some rice, noodles, meat, etc., which only costs about 10 yuan. The elders take it.
Gift, and then return a red envelope of 6 yuan 6 or 8 yuan 8, this is a normal transaction.
Peng Fang used a red envelope of 8 yuan and 80 cents in exchange for such a good gift. It was a huge profit.
Everyone cast envious glances at Peng Fang and Huang Jianguo.
"You haven't seen it. The couple has donkey faces, as if they borrowed rice from his family and returned chaff back."
"People still despise such generous relatives. I really don't know where the face of that couple comes from. When my nephew and son-in-law come to visit, they only pay 80 cents. It's a shame she can give it away. I feel ashamed for her!"
After spread by the melon-eating villagers of Peng Fang's family, the whole village soon knew about the stingy deeds of Peng Fang and Huang Jianguo.

"Did you drop the red envelope on purpose just now?"
After coming out of Huang Jian's country, Yun Mo asked the man next to her.
Lingchuan was a little embarrassed, "The width of the red envelope I held was not quite right, so I deliberately tore the seal open. You saw what happened next."
A dime note is 5.2 centimeters wide, while a one-yuan note is 6.3 centimeters wide. People who often come into contact with money can tell the difference at a glance.
If Peng Fang wrapped two one-yuan paper towels outside the one-cent banknote, Lingchuan would not be able to spot the clues so easily.
In the final analysis, it is still too greedy.
However, Yunmo was not completely unprepared.
She originally planned to open the red envelope directly after receiving it. Anyway, she was not afraid of embarrassment.
Unexpectedly, Lingchuan was smarter than she thought and exposed Peng Fang's trick. It would take less than half a day for Peng Fang to receive an 80-cent red envelope and the news would spread throughout the village.
When she thought of this, Yun Mo felt very good.
Originally, she prepared a cheap welcome gift, which only contained ordinary tribute wine, white sugar, red bean cake and a piece of bacon.
But in sharp contrast to Peng Fang's stinginess, she specially gave the good one an acceptance gift.
With Peng Fang's flamboyant temperament, she would definitely show it off in front of the villagers.
She had done her best to save face, and it would only be Peng Fang who would be criticized. If there was a conflict between the two parties in the future, everyone would only think that it was Peng Fang's problem.
The more Yun Mo thought about it, the better she felt. She couldn't help but praise the man next to her, "You performed well today. I'll keep up the good work in the future."
Lingchuan glanced at her, "Then do I get a reward?"
"what do you want?"
Lingchuan suddenly became nervous, bent down and said something quickly in her ear.
Yun Mo's cheeks suddenly turned red, "Let me think about this."

At this time, Peng Fang and Huang Jianguo were sulking at home.
"Didn't you say that there are Wuliangye and Ruanzhonghua? How did they become these useless things?"
Hearing her husband's dissatisfaction, Peng Fang was also very angry.
"You still have the nerve to say that I gave you a wink as soon as the person entered the door and asked you to take the thing and take a look. If you had seen the thing earlier, we could also ask about it on the spot. Now that everyone has left, you ask me,
Who am I going to ask!?”
"I was going to pick it up, but who knew that Ling wouldn't give it to me and even gave it to Yun Mo? I can't go up and grab it forcefully, right?"
Thinking of the 8 yuan and 80 cents red envelope given out, Peng Fang felt a twinge of pain in her body, "That person surnamed Ling definitely did it on purpose. I used porridge to seal the red envelope tightly, so it couldn't fall apart if I dropped it!"
The men in the city are indeed cunning."
Huang Jianguo couldn't help scolding his wife, "You are serious. No matter what, you will pay 1 yuan and 8 cents, just 8 cents. You have lost all my face!"
Peng Fang was dissatisfied with her husband's hindsight, "Why didn't you tell me when I gave the red envelope in the morning? Now you feel embarrassed..."
