Four o'clock in the afternoon, in the courtyard, inside the He family house.
At this moment, after three rounds of wine and five dishes, Xiao Ni, Aunt Yi and the other female family members had already finished their meals and ran to the Yi family's room with their children to chat.
In the warm room, only Chu Heng and Shazhu were left, continuing to exchange cups and glasses and talk nonsense.
"Crack!"
Chu Heng, who was a little tipsy, threw a peanut into his mouth. His two rows of white teeth gently grinded the crispy peanuts into pieces, and a layer of mellow fragrance lingered on his tongue.
It bloomed and conquered his taste buds again.
He squinted his eyes and tasted it carefully, and couldn't help praising Si Zhu who was sitting next to him: "You are really good at making these spiced peanuts! I never tire of eating them."
"Hey, don't even look at who did it." Silly Zhu, who had a red head and a swollen face after drinking, smiled proudly when he heard this and lost himself in the praise. He pointed to the chest of drawers rather boldly.
He said: "There are quite a few at home, I will decorate them for you when you leave."
"A lot? Let me see."
Chu Heng raised his thick eyebrows, then stood up and rushed to the chest of drawers. Without treating himself as an outsider, he unceremoniously opened the drawers and rummaged through them, and soon found a small bag of peanuts at the bottom.
.
He bumped it in his hand and nodded with satisfaction: "Hey, it's quite a lot. It's about ten pounds, right? I took them all away. I owe the rest first. I'll ask you for them if you eat them.
.”
"What the hell?"
When Sha Zhu saw that he was actually asking for a pot, he immediately panicked. He quickly stood up and walked forward quickly, grabbed the bag of peanuts in Chu Heng's hand and snatched it back, saying anxiously: "This can't be done, this
, I just saved this little peanut this year, you took it away, why should I put it with my wine?"
"Don't you even write a draft when you lie? You, a canteen director, still don't have enough peanuts?" Chu Heng looked at him sideways, and threatened with a sneer: "Hurry up, or I won't be able to hold the door with my mouth.
, Believe it or not, I’m going to talk to my sister-in-law about Lou Xiao’e right now?”
"..."
Silly Zhu's face darkened instantly. After a moment's hesitation, he let go of his hand with a distressed look on his face and said angrily: "Take it away, take it away! I can see it, you kid is really not a thing! Who wants to have it?"
If anything falls into your hands, you will be killed!"
"Hey, thank you brother!"
The thing was finally in hand. Chu Heng bared his teeth and smiled at him. He happily tied a knot on the bag and carried it back to the wine table. He picked up the half glass of wine in front of him and said to Silly Zhu who had a stinky face.
: "Come on, brother, let's continue drinking."
"Go away, I drank my shit! I'm so angry that I'm full of you!" Silly Zhu looked at the brother in front of him who looked harmless, but was actually a thorn in his side, as if he had already seen his own dark future.
Lou Xiaoe harmed me!
He drooped his head in despair.
"If you don't drink it, I'll drink it myself." Chu Heng took a sip of wine with a smile, then picked up a crystal elbow with his chopsticks, smacked his lips and said: "Hey, I have a good thing I forgot to tell you. This trip
I brought back a batch of TVs when I went out, do you want them? If so, I’ll give you the cost price, two hundred and thirty sets, and you don’t need a ticket.”
"TV?" Silly Zhu suddenly became energetic and raised his head suddenly: "Is it real or fake? Don't use me to play cymbals! You can buy a TV with 230? You don't need a ticket?"
He had been coveting Chu Heng's TV set for a long time. He even went to find someone to inquire about it. He knew that not only was it hard to get tickets for this thing, but it was also basically unavailable for him to buy. So now that he heard Chu Heng said that it was available,
He couldn't believe this stuff for a moment.
"Tsk, why am I teasing you about this? It's true, there are twenty of them. If you don't believe me, just ask Ni Yinghong." Chu Heng said funny.
"I'll ask right away!"
Silly Zhu stood up in a hurry and left the room, went straight to the Yi family next door, found Ni Yinghong who was chatting with Ran Qiuye and the others, and asked: "Brothers and sisters, I heard Hengzi say that your family has a batch of TVs.
Really?"
Ni Yinghong turned her head when she heard this, nodded with a smile, and said: "Ah, there is a batch. Brother Zhuzhu, do you want it?"
"I want me so bad!"
Silly Zhu was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly said to Ran Qiuye who was sitting next to him: "Quick, quick, quick, wife, get me two hundred and thirty yuan quickly, and let's go to Hengzi's to get a TV."
Ran Qiuye was a little confused: "What TV? What's going on?"
"Hey, that's what happened, sister-in-law." Qin Jingru explained for him with a smile: "Didn't my brother go to Hong Kong Island? He asked someone to bring back a batch of TVs, and they were all new and cheap.
, no votes needed yet.”
"That's what happened."
Ran Qiuye nodded suddenly, then glanced at Silhu, who had an anxious look on his face, and after a moment of hesitation, he decisively refused: "Let's not take it anymore. Why did we spend more than two hundred yuan to buy that? It's not something to eat or drink.
of."
Although Sha Zhu now earns a lot of money every month, buying a TV is not a big deal for their family, but in the eyes of Ran Qiuye, who is all about practicality, buying that thing is a waste of money and is really unnecessary.
Furthermore, she was also afraid that people would cause trouble because of this matter, saying that they were speculating or something like that.
And this is the main reason.
As someone who has been exposed to rain, Ran Qiuye knows how violent and terrifying the rain is, so she doesn't want to get wet anymore even if she beats her to death. She has always been walking on thin ice, cautious, for fear of making a mistake and falling into catastrophe again.
place.
When Si Zhu heard this, his face instantly turned bitter. After discussing it for a while, he saw that he still couldn't persuade his wife, so he could only leave the house with his head down and returned to his home.
Chu Heng, who was pouring himself a drink in the room, saw him looking like he was mourning for his heir, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"Alas, your sister-in-law won't let you buy it." Silly Zhu sighed.
"Then you won't be able to pick up this bargain." Chu Heng shrugged indifferently. He sold those TVs purely for welfare. He was selling each one at a loss. Since people don't want it, he can only forget it. Anyway, he
It's my intention.
Then the two of them drank for a while, and around 4:30, Si Zhu was knocked unconscious. So Chu Heng took the half bag of peanuts and left the courtyard with Xiao Ni and the others.
Go directly towards Banchang Hutong.
When several people returned home, the black and white dogs ran over to greet them.
Looking at the two dogs standing in front of him, wagging their tails wildly, Chu Heng lovingly knelt down and stroked each dog's head a few times, then stood up and walked into the courtyard talking and laughing with the first and second bedrooms.
Yang Guizhi, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen, heard the noise and poked her head out of the door and asked, "You're back, have you eaten yet?"
"After you've eaten, Sister Guizhi, you don't need to take our share." Xiao Ni returned with a smile.
"Okay!"
The eldest sister nodded and stepped back.
Chu Heng stood at the window and looked in, and saw her squatting in front of the stove to light the fire. He said to the two of them speechlessly: "Why is Sister Guizhi still unwilling to use the gas stove?"
"Not only does she not want to use the gas stove, she doesn't even like to use the washing machine. Unless she is too busy, she won't touch it." Ni Yinghong said helplessly.
"Forget about the washing machine, sometimes I won't even let you wash some clothes myself," Qin Jingru said.
"This old lady." Chu Heng shook his head in confusion.
