Chen Lishu thought the price of one dollar and three was not bad, so she nodded and said, "Brother Liu, I have to tell my family and ask them what they want."
"It should be." Liu Yong nodded to express his understanding.
Before leaving the house, Chen Lishu suddenly turned around: "Brother Liu, do you want to collect food?"
Liu Yong's feet stumbled unconsciously as he walked her out. What kind of luck did he have today? There was both food and meat. It seemed that the day was coming for him to get rich.
"Collect it, Brother Liu, I will collect it regardless of the price. I guarantee that whatever the price outside is, it will be higher than lower. The more, the better."
He also runs a restaurant privately, and what he lacks most is food and meat.
With Liu Yong's words, Chen Lishu felt confident.
Early the next morning, Chen Lishu called her home and told her the price of the pork. She also told her home Liu Yong's address so that she could send it directly to her home after the pig was killed.
After making the call, Chen Lishu went home and continued making clothes.
In the afternoon, she took the time to fry half the bag of dry goods that Li Xiulan gave her. She tasted it herself and it tasted good. She also sent some to the Ding family next door.
"This is a good thing. I haven't eaten walnuts in several years. I have almost forgotten the taste."
Ding Yongfeng said, grabbing one and pinching it open with his fingers, then picked up a piece of walnut meat and put it into his mouth to taste it slowly.
This is not often sold in supply and marketing stores, and peanuts and melon seeds are rationed every year, with only one pound per household, so it is not an exaggeration to say that I have not eaten walnuts for several years.
Chen Lishu pursed her lips and smiled: "Everyone in the village goes to the mountains to pick up some dry goods in autumn. Uncle Ding, if you like to eat, I can buy some for you privately when I return to the village."
Ding Yongfeng nodded: "Xiao Chen is interested."
Sun Shuzhen couldn't help but smile and joked: "You don't know if your Uncle Ding has any other hobbies, he is just a bit greedy."
Chen Lishu sat and talked with the two for a while before getting up and going home.
…
On this day, Liu Yuemin took the hair flower she had saved for half a month to the town supply and marketing cooperative. As soon as she put the hair flower on the counter, a figure suddenly appeared next to her and knocked her aside.
"Comrade, I'm here to deliver the goods. You accept my goods and don't ask for hers."
When Liu Yuemin looked closely and saw that the person who pushed her away was none other than her sister-in-law Zhao Xiaoju, she suddenly exploded.
"Zhao Xiaoju, do you still want to be shameless? Don't you know that first come, first served?" Liu Yuemin said, pushing her away, and at the same time handed her hair to the salesperson: "Comrade, don't listen to her nonsense, take it from me."
"Bah, what comes first, first served?" Zhao Xiaoju said and swept the bag Liu Yuemin placed on the counter to the ground. The mouth of the bag was open and many flowers scattered out.
"Just take this crap thing you made and take it back quickly. Don't be embarrassed here."
After Zhao Xiaoju finished speaking, she looked at the salesperson with a smile: "Comrade, you can accept mine. I don't mind the quality."
Seeing her things being thrown on the ground, Liu Yuemin looked at Zhao Xiaoju with fire in her eyes: "You stinking shameless slut, how dare you throw my things away, I'm not done with you today!"
Old and new grudges, the more Liu Yuemin thought about it, the angrier she became, and she bumped directly into Zhao Xiaoju. Zhao Xiaoju was not a good person either, and the two soon struggled with each other.
"You guys stop fighting now. If someone comes here, none of us will think about it." The salesperson was so anxious that she immediately got out of the counter to start a fight.
A customer who entered the store saw something was wrong and ran out to call someone, who soon brought the patrol's "red armband."
When Liu Yuemin and Zhao Xiaoju saw the 'red armband', they were frightened out of their wits. They were not as arrogant as when they were fighting. They all shrank their necks like quails and did not dare to express their anger.
"Have you forgotten all the above policies? Speculation is a crime. All things will be confiscated and each person will be fined forty."
Forty yuan? When Liu Yuemin heard this, she immediately panicked. She didn't make much money in total even from the initial cost.
"Comrade, can you not pay the fine? It costs forty yuan all at once, and I really can't afford it." Liu Yuemin begged towards the 'red armband'.
The 'red armband' was unmoved, and without even raising his eyelids, he directly opened the order and handed it over: "It's okay if you don't hand it over, then just come with me. You are responsible for the consequences."
When she heard that she was about to be taken away, Liu Yuemin's legs went weak and she almost fell off the ground. She didn't dare to have any other ideas, so she could only pay the money obediently.
Zhao Xiaoju didn't have that much money, so in the end she had to be taken away by the "red armband".
Seeing the person walking away, thinking that all the results of the hard work for more than half a month were wasted, not to mention that she had spent forty yuan on it, Liu Yuemin felt regretful in her intestines, and felt that her heart was bleeding.
If I had known this, I would have sold everything to Chen Lishu.
Thinking of Chen Lishu, Liu Yuemin's originally dull eyes moved.
…
Chen Lishu was making clothes at home when she vaguely heard a knock on the door. She put down her work and went out. As soon as she opened the door to the courtyard, she saw Liu Yuemin standing at the door. Her clothes were rumpled, her hair was messy, and there were scars on her neck.
There are two scratch marks.
"Second sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
Liu Yuemin didn't answer. She walked into the courtyard and looked around the courtyard. She couldn't suppress the jealousy in her heart.
It's so unfair that she can still live in such a nice courtyard while she is in such a mess! "Third brother and sister, do you have the nerve to ask, if it weren't for you and I would be like this?"
Chen Lishu was confused by Liu Yuemin's groundless accusation: "Second sister-in-law, did you wake up and run away from me to talk nonsense, or did you forget to take medicine when you went out? Go see a doctor if you are sick, don't go crazy when you go out."
"Am I crazy?" Liu Yuemin turned around suddenly and looked over with resentful eyes: "If you hadn't tried to take advantage of me before and refused to accept the eight cents, I wouldn't have sold it to the supply and marketing cooperative for seven cents, and I wouldn't have met you.
If that bitch Zhao Xiaoju fights with her, she won't be caught by the 'Red Armband'."
The more Liu Yuemin talked, the more excited she became: "You must compensate me for my losses today!"
Chen Lishu immediately became angry at her shameless words.
"Liu Yuemin, I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone as shameless as you."
Liu Yuemin didn't care what she said, she had lost so much all at once, and now she just wanted to find someone to compensate her.
"If you don't compensate me for the loss, I will expose your speculation and secretly making clothes."
When Chen Lishu heard her words, her originally gentle face was instantly stained with frost.
"For the sake of you being my second sister-in-law, I will give you a chance. Get out of my house now. You are talking nonsense because you are not clear-headed. I can pretend that what happened today never happened." Chen Lishu's voice was cold.
Contains no trace of temperature.
"You give me a chance?" Liu Yuemin sneered: "Chen Lishu, you have to understand that I am giving you a chance now, stop pretending, and tell me whether you want compensation or not, or I will expose everything about you."
