Chapter 33 A penny stumps a hero
When I said this, Huzi suddenly remembered this matter and said depressedly: "I don't know why the head of the family made such strange rules. We are in Yanbei City, and there must be the most people looking for the young master here."
"We'll see, there will always be a chance." I said very calmly.
"If there is no business for half a month, even if we save the money, it will be almost spent. The young master needs to think of a way." Uncle Huzi said with some worry.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Uncle Huzi looked at me with a strange look, as if to say, you have a bad number.
No matter how difficult it is, life must go on.
If the two of us spend more than eight hundred yuan sparingly on eating and drinking, we will definitely be fine for half a month.
During this period of time, I hope someone else can find the inside of this small courtyard.
What I didn't expect was that in the next two or three days, several groups of people did come, but they were all locals from Yanbei City. After Huzi asked about the situation, he declined directly.
There was also a man named Zhang Yuncheng who came twice, looking very anxious, but was also sent away by Hu Zi.
I have no choice but to follow the rules left by Master and I must not break them.
Half a month has passed and I still haven't opened the business.
The thing we were most worried about happened. The little money Master left us had almost spent it. On the sixteenth day, Huzi and I only had ten yuan left.
When Master was here, I never worried about food and drink, but it's different now.
I truly understand what it means to beat a hero with a penny.
I have been studying with the master for eight years, and I have a lot of skills, but I have no place to put them to use.
Before the master left here, he must have spread the news and asked me to take over his affairs, but all the people who came were locals from Yanbei City, and I couldn't do anything.
I guess this is Master's test for me.
When I heard Uncle Huzi say that he only had ten yuan left, I said to him: "Uncle Huzi, tell me the truth, did master leave any money for you? You guys are working together to test
What about me?"
Huzi was stunned for a moment and said: "Master, you really don't have any. You saw it when the head of the family gave him the money. It was just that money."
"You haven't saved any private money yourself?" I asked unwillingly.
"The conscience of heaven and earth, if I want to save some private money, then..."
"Stop, stop talking." I interrupted Uncle Hu Zi and sighed. It seemed that the two of us were really at the end of our rope.
There was only ten yuan left, so I said directly to Uncle Huzi: "Let's go to a restaurant."
Huzi was a little confused: "Master, what's the point of ten yuan? It's just enough to buy a bowl of vegetables and noodles, how can we both eat?"
"Calm down, a bowl of green vegetable noodles, half for each of us. We have no rice, no noodles and no oil at home. You can't cook either, so you have to go to a restaurant." I said.
"Master, let's buy some steamed buns for ten yuan. If we don't eat vegetables, we can survive for two more days." Uncle Hu Zi came up with an idea.
"Put it down, you can't last more than a few days if you eat eight buns at a time."
"That's right." Uncle Huzi nodded and went to the small restaurant outside with me. The two of us ordered a vegetable noodles.
Looking at the green vegetable noodles that were served, and looking at Uncle Hu Zi whose eyes were glowing green with hunger, I asked the boss for a small bowl, and I took out a few green vegetables and noodles from the bowl, and put most of them into the bowl.
All the noodles were left to Uncle Hu Zi.
He has a surprisingly big appetite and eats twice as much in one meal as Master and I combined.
Uncle Huzi ate more than half of the more than 800 yuan in living expenses.
Uncle Hu Zi felt a little embarrassed, pushed the big bowl to me again and said: "Master, you are growing taller, you should eat more, I am not hungry."
"Okay, you can eat. I have a small appetite and can't eat that much."
"Master, let's eat it..."
While Uncle Hu Zi and I were humbling each other, a strange voice suddenly came from behind: "Hey, isn't this the handsome guy Wu Jie? We just ordered a bowl of green vegetable noodles. Is this enough to eat?"
I looked back and found that I was still an acquaintance, it was my classmate Wang Chaoyang.
Next to him was a beautiful girl who was also a classmate of ours, named Li Na.
Speaking of this Li Na, she once chased me but was rejected by me. It’s not that I didn’t like Li Na, she was indeed pretty, but the master was very strict with me. During my training with him,
, I will never be allowed to fall in love. If he finds out, I will definitely not be able to live with him.
When Li Na was chasing me, Wang Chaoyang was also chasing her. After I rejected her, they got together.
Therefore, Wang Chaoyang somewhat resented me, and this was the attitude he had when he saw me.
When I was born, I had a fox face and white hair on my body.
It’s just that it started to grow later, and the longer it grew, the more beautiful it became. Some of the boys and girls looked similar to those little chicks on TV now.
In fact, when I was in high school, Li Na was not the only one who chased me. There were also other female classmates, some of whom were not in our class, and I rejected them all.
It's not that I'm cold, it's because I'm afraid of getting beaten, and that old man is really willing to do it.
"Wang Chaoyang, Li Na, long time no see." I maintained my demeanor and greeted them both with a smile.
"We are all old classmates. Your life is too miserable. I really can't stand it. Please order two more dishes and I will pay the bill later." Wang Chaoyang sneered and called the boss over. He couldn't help but give it to us.
The table ordered seven or eight of the most expensive dishes in the restaurant.
Uncle Huzi's face turned green when he looked at the dishes on the table. Wang Chaoyang would definitely not pay me the money. He was deliberately entertaining me.
I gave Uncle Hu Zi a look to tell him to calm down.
After ordering for us, Wang Chaoyang and Li Na sat at the next table, ordered a few dishes and started eating. Li Na looked a little embarrassed and kept looking over at me secretly while eating. I also pretended not to.
see.
Uncle Huzi's meal was tasteless, mainly because he was worried about how to pay the bill, but I had already made a plan to eat and drink until my stomach was full.
The two of them finished eating quickly. Wang Chaoyang came to me and said in a pretentious manner: "Old classmate, I will pay for the meal for you. I think you are in trouble."
"No, you go first. I'll just pay the bill myself." I replied. I can't lose face at all. I still have some backbone.
As expected, Wang Chaoyang just expressed his wishes to me and said, "Okay, let's go first..."
As he said that, Wang Chaoyang seemed to have remembered something, and turned back to look at me and said: "Old classmate, I forgot to tell you something. Tomorrow at the Yanbei Hotel, I will invite the classmates of our class to have dinner together. My college entrance examination scores have come down.
