When Auntie Shanghai, Silly Gu, Pig Killer and Damao cried, Tang Qing became angry.
She was originally not very happy about the four people coming to her home at night, and when the Shiba urine disappeared again, the fire in her heart suddenly burst out.
"Master Jiujin, then you should rest early, we are leaving."
The Shanghai aunt pulled the pig-butcher's clothes, winked at Da Mao and Sha Gu, and walked out of Tang Qing's hut.
"stop!"
Tang Qing yelled, and Aunt Shanghai stood still. The butcher couldn't stand still, and his tall body bumped into Aunt Shanghai. Aunt Shanghai staggered and threw herself against the door of the house opposite.
"Who is it?"
There were inquiries from the house opposite.
Tang Qing just wanted to come out of the house to stop the butcher and the others from talking, but Da Mao and Sha Gu who were following the butcher didn't stop. They bumped into each other, then I bumped into you, and then they bumped into the butcher.
Aunt Shanghai had just turned around from the door of the house opposite, when the butcher was bumped into by Da Mao and Sha Gu from behind, and bumped into Aunt Shanghai again.
"Bang!"
This time, the Shanghai aunt bumped her butt against the door of the house opposite. It was as loud as she wanted. In this quiet night, especially a big firecracker exploded in the corridor.
"who?!"
"Who?"
"What happened?"
"Call the police quickly!"
Everyone in the corridor came out, including the family opposite Tang Qing.
The old people had already gone to bed, and one by one they put on their coats and rushed to Tang Qing's floor.
"Uncles and aunts, I'm sorry for waking you up. Today, the Pig Butcher and Aunt Shanghai, Da Mao and Sha Gu are having a wedding, and they are bringing you wedding candies."
Tang Qing stabilized the old people first, then turned to Aunt Shanghai and the four of them:
"Look, have you woken up the uncles and aunts? I told you not to worry. The uncles and aunts are old and go to bed early. I will share the wedding candies with them tomorrow."
"Master Jiujin, this..."
Auntie from Shanghai usually makes noises in the People's Barber Shop and looks majestic, but now she is at a loss when faced with the old people gathered around her in robes.
"Pig-butcher, Damao, what are you two doing standing there? Since the uncle and aunt are up, why don't you give them the wedding candy and duck eggs?"
Tang Qing took out a basket of duck eggs and a plastic bag of wedding candies from the house.
"Master Jiujin, how do you divide it?"
The pig-butcher asked Tang Qing in a low voice.
"Uncles and aunts, it's a little fun. Each of you has two duck eggs and a handful of wedding candies. Come on, take them."
Tang Qing ignored the pig butcher and started to divide it himself.
"Isn't that too polite? Thank you, thank you!"
"These duck eggs should belong to the matchmaker. Why were they given to us?"
"Yes, we are already very happy to share wedding candies with us, and even duck eggs!"
The old people were woken up in the middle of the night and were full of resentment and anger. Now they are holding wedding candies and duck eggs, and they are extremely happy.
"Uncles and aunties, this pig-butcher, Shanghai aunt, Da Mao and silly aunt are all people you know well. If they can get together, you are also a matchmaker. You should eat these duck eggs."
It is a custom in Yancheng that newlyweds have to "thank the matchmaker" after getting married, which means thanking the matchmaker for the marriage. To thank the matchmaker, they must bring fresh duck eggs to express their gratitude.
Duck eggs are called "pressure" in the local dialect of Yancheng. If you press the child, you will have a baby early, so you have to give the duck eggs to the matchmaker.
"Thank you, thank you, I wish you a baby soon!"
"Have a son soon!"
The old people happily returned to their homes holding wedding candies and duck eggs.
"Master Jiujin..."
Auntie Shanghai looked at Tang Qing sheepishly.
"Why don't you leave quickly?"
Tang Qing casually swung the other three baskets of things that the Pig Butcher and the others had just delivered to the door.
"Master Jiujin, give these to Nong."
"The basket of duck eggs I shared just now is also for you."
"So is the wedding candy."
"Tomorrow we will bring you a basket of duck eggs and a bag of wedding candies."
Aunt Shanghai, Pig Killer and Da Mao, Sha Gu are a little embarrassed.
"As I said just now, go thank the matchmaker to Lao Longtou and Wang Carpenter. I, Tang Qing, don't need your thanks! If you come again, don't blame me for turning against me!"
Tang Qing said and closed the door.
Aunt Shanghai, Pig Killer, Da Mao, and Silly Gu stood silently at the door for a while, then picked up the three baskets of things dejectedly and walked down the stairs.
"Pig-killer, Nong Mingchao has given Master Jiu Jin the medical expenses for Araga last time."
"I still have three years of stall fees paid by Master Jiu Jin."
"Isn't it Ning? The master has to pay nine pounds of stall fees for three years?"
"I really didn't have any money at that time, and I forgot about it later. Alas, it's been more than five years."
"Five years? How much is the interest for five years? Look, what will Master Jiujin's savings be like? Don't give Yi the medical expenses yourself. It's embarrassing. It's embarrassing."
The Shanghai aunt and the pig butcher blamed themselves as they walked.
"Oh, Master Jiujin lives so frugally, and he still gives me and my mother money every New Year and festival."
"If Master Jiujin hadn't given me five hundred yuan, I would have starved to death on the streets of Yancheng."
"Shall we find a way to give Master Jiujin some money?"
"Master Jiujin, can you accept it? She has been busy with our wedding this time. Even if she is tired, she will definitely put in a lot of money."
Da Mao and Sha Gu also felt guilty.
"Pig-killer, how much money will Master Jiujin return to me?"
The Shanghai aunt asked the pig butcher.
"More than three hundred."
"Auntie Shanghai, Master Jiujin also refunded me more than three hundred."
Butcher and Da Mao responded to Aunt Shanghai.
"Those two birthdays, and these more than 300 yuan in banknotes will also be collected? Then think about it, the wedding is so lively for Ala this time, will the few banknotes be enough?"
"That's right, you don't want to think about it. Each of our families only spent 2,500 yuan, and the total is only 5,000 yuan. Master Jiujin refunded you more than 300 yuan, which is equivalent to more than 600 yuan. In other words, we spent only 2,500 yuan on this wedding.
A little over four thousand, is it possible?”
Shanghai aunt and silly aunt scolded the butcher and Da Mao.
"Didn't you say that the contractor donated the food money? He should..."
"What is he? Don't you feel comfortable in your heart? It's still too late to feel comfortable! Get divorced early tomorrow morning!"
Auntie Shanghai didn't wait for the butcher to finish, then went over and grabbed the butcher's ears.
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant."
The pig-butcher kept begging for mercy.
"No, what do you mean? No, no, no, no, don't you want to give Master Jiu Jin money?"
Auntie from Shanghai refuses to give up.
"I didn't say I wouldn't pay it, but I don't know how much she paid in advance for your last medical expenses. Five years have passed since my three-year stall fee. Should I give her the price at that time? Or should I add interest? That's it.
Isn’t it easy to give it?”
The pig-butcher looked troubled.
"If you can't give it to me, why don't you give it to me? Alas, it's obvious that I don't want to give it to you!"
Auntie Shanghai walked forward quickly, minding her own business.
"It's not that I don't want to give it, I just want to wait until later. Aren't we going to buy a new house? I've calculated it several times. If your current house and my current house are sold, plus our deposits,
The money for the small villa in the south of the city is just enough."
The butcher followed closely and explained to Auntie Shanghai.
"Isn't it just enough?"
Auntie Shanghai slowed down her steps.
"But we still need to decorate? Our son is about to be born, and there is a lot of money to spend. Maybe we need to borrow some."
"Oh, let's talk about the banknotes from Master Jiu Jin."
The Shanghai aunt took the butcher's arm and returned to her home.
"I am happy to put the money in my bag, but I am not happy to take it out from the bag again."
"Why are you so stupid and sighing? We will also buy a house next. We can't afford a villa, so we have to buy a suite, right? I don't want to live there anymore."
"I must buy it, I must buy it, for my son and for my mother."
"For this, for that, why don't you leave me?"
"Aren't you just me, and aren't I just you?"
"When did you, a fool like you, know how to talk about love?"
"A fool and a silly woman become smarter together, hehe."
"Shanghai aunt and the butcher will be able to buy villas soon. When can you buy me a suite?"
