Chapter Seventy-Seven: Not Enough to Take Advantage (2)
When you want to buy it yourself, you only lack vinegar, and when you let Lin Jing buy it, you will lack everything?
There is still a lack of oil, rice, and white sugar, peppercorns, and in their opinion, what Deng Cuimin lacks is simply his heart.
It's not enough to take advantage of it like this, and the appearance is too ugly!
When Lin Jing was young, she knew that her aunt loved to take advantage.
However, at that time, it was not as excessive as it is now.
Could it be that Deng Cuimin's ability to take advantage of others has also grown up as she gets older?
Deng Cuimin's trick, if it is against Lin Jing, who was still in school a few years ago, it will definitely take effect.
The reason is naturally because Lin Jing was still less knowledgeable and thin-skinned at that time.
But now, Deng Cuimin is about to miscalculate, Lin Jing has already participated in the work, has seen all kinds of people, has her own temperament and bottom line, and is no longer the little girl who used to be soft and kneaded.
Although Deng Cuimin said a bunch of things to buy, Lin Jing just smiled, and didn't say no, let alone buy.
However, in her heart, she has already made up her mind to only buy vinegar, and it is still in bags, so she will buy one bag, if there is more.
For people like Deng Cuimin who don't take advantage of enough, you can't blindly follow it, otherwise, if the other party kicks his nose in the face, it will only become more and more excessive, and the consequences will be endless.
Lin Jing has such a mind, and others don't know.
In Luo Yumei's heart, Lin Jing was still the little girl who couldn't wipe her face with thin skin, she saw Lin Jing smiling and walking out, thinking that Lin Jing had listened to Deng Cuimin's words and was going to buy it according to what Deng Cuimin said, and she was unhappy.
She glanced at Deng Cuimin, immediately got up and stepped forward, stopped Lin Jing, and said, "Jing'er, you are not familiar with this place, you don't know where to buy it, you just sit here, and my aunt will buy it." ”
Lin Jing couldn't say goodbye to Luo Yumei, so she had to sit back down.
Luo Yumei went out, and it didn't take long for her to come back.
Deng Cuimin hurriedly stretched her neck and glared to look.
But seeing that Luo Yumei was relaxed, only carrying a bag of rice vinegar in her right hand, Deng Cuimin's eyes were looking forward to the cooking oil, rice, sugar, and peppercorns, and there was not even a shadow.
Deng Cuimin's face was elongated, and her expression became very unpleasant, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, and said to Luo Yumei: "Third sister, why haven't you bought other things?"
Luo Yumei threw the bag of rice vinegar in her hand on the table, and said in an unkind tone: "I saw the vinegar seller, I didn't see anything else, sister-in-law, if your family doesn't have all the things, don't bother you and your eldest brother, let's go to the restaurant on the market to eat." ”
When Deng Cuimin heard this, how could it be done, she had other things to tell Luo Qiuying and Luo Yumei later, how could she let them leave like this?
So, she immediately put on a smile and said: "Hey, I just said casually, how can I really let you buy it, although your brother and I are poor, but there is still no shortage of money, look at what makes you feel distressed." ”
Luo Yumei suddenly felt angry.
What is this, it is obvious that Deng Cuimin is not taking advantage of it enough, but now that she says this, it makes it seem that she is too stingy.
It's really infuriating!
Now, no one wanted to talk to Deng Cuimin, and the atmosphere became more and more awkward.
Deng Cuimin also seemed to be aware of it, so she got up and said with a smile: "Then you sit and chat first, and I'll go to the kitchen to give Changping a hand." ”
After that, she turned her head to look at Luo Junjie and said, "Junjie, there is not much left in the electricity bill at home, you go to charge some electricity bills, and the power will be cut off when the time comes, and it will be troublesome to pay again." ”
This time, after Deng Cuimin finished speaking, she took out two hundred yuan from her pocket very happily, handed it to Luo Junjie, patted Luo Junjie's head, and instructed: "Be careful on the road, go and go back quickly." ”
Luo Junjie nodded, borrowed the money, and immediately stuffed it into his pocket, and pressed it hard, as if he was afraid of losing it.
Immediately, his eyes rolled, as if he had moved something.
He first looked at Luo Yumei, only to see Luo Yumei's unhappy expression, and thinking that he and Xu Yuyan had a skateboarding dispute not long ago, Luo Yumei's temper was relatively hot, so it was better for him not to provoke Luo Yumei.
Then, Luo Junjie set his eyes on Lin Jing, and his eyes lit up.
He hadn't seen him, Lin Jing's cousin, for a long time, and in his impression, Lin Jing was not only the best learner among the children in the family, but also the best-looking, with a very gentle and amiable personality, and very easy to talk.
And now, Lin Jing is getting better and better-looking, and she still looks gentle, amiable and easy to talk to.
The most important thing is that just now he listened to his mother Deng Cuimin chatting with Lin Jing, Lin Jing's current job is very good, and her income is also high, which means that Lin Jing has money in her hands.
Just now, his mother Deng Cuimin asked Lin Jing to buy so many things, and Lin Jing didn't say no, presumably if it wasn't for his aunt Luo Yumei who robbed Hu, Lin Jing would have bought them all back.
So, Luo Junjie smiled at Lin Jing and said, "Sister, I haven't paid the electricity bill, can you go with me?"
Although Lin Jing's impression of Luo Junjie is not very good, she has no reason to refuse such an ordinary request.
What's more, she has her own bottom line, and she is not afraid of Luo Junjie's troubles.
Thinking of this, she smiled and said, "Okay, let's go together." ”
Luo Junjie was very happy when he saw that Lin Jing agreed, and asked Lin Jing to drive Luo Yumei's car to send him to Jishang to pay the electricity bill.
What he didn't expect was that Lin Jing didn't hesitate at all, and refused in one bite.
Regarding Luo Junjie's request, Lin Jing guessed in her heart that it was probably vanity, but she didn't want to get used to the other party.
However, she refused to refuse, but she still patiently explained: "It's just a little distance from here to the set, not far is one thing, and there are many people on the set, it's too inconvenient to drive there, and if you don't get it right, you can't come back on the road." ”
As she spoke, she pointed to Deng Cuimin's electric car parked in the middle of the yard and continued: "Let's ride an electric car, it's fast and convenient." ”
Regarding Luo Junjie's thoughts, Lin Jing really guessed correctly.
Luo Junjie has many classmates who live in Jishang, and he wants Lin Jing to drive him to pay the electricity bill, just to show off, although this car is not his family at all.
Hearing Lin Jing's refusal, he was very disappointed, and for a moment he realized that he, Lin Jing's cousin, seemed to have become different from before.
However, he didn't think too much about it, because all he was thinking about was his plans for the future, and there was no need to worry about Lin Jing on such a trivial matter.
Luo Junjie nodded and agreed.
So, Lin Jing rode an electric car, carrying Luo Junjie behind, and went straight to the place where the electricity bill was paid.
Lin Jing had a hunch that Luo Junjie would probably make some trouble coming out.
Sure enough, at the place where the electricity bill was paid on the market, Luo Junjie reported his meter number to the staff and said that he would pay 200 yuan for electricity.
When the staff entered the relevant information, typed out the payment list, and was about to collect the fee, Luo Junjie touched the trouser pocket that contained the money before, and suddenly made a shocked expression, and said in a panic: "Ah, sister, I lost the money, now, my mother has to scold me to death, what should I do?"
When the staff heard this, they immediately kindly reminded: "The electricity bill has rushed up, and the payment list has been typed out, and it can't be refunded. ”
Lin Jing looked at Luo Junjie and felt speechless.
If Luo Junjie can behave more naturally, and don't pretend to be so exaggerated like Deng Cuimin, perhaps, she will really believe Luo Junjie's lies at this time.
It's really, it's not a family, it's not a family.
Boy, my skills are not enough, I still need to work hard!
Lin Jing was speechless, but she didn't want to be embarrassed here with Luo Junjie because of two hundred yuan.
It's a pity that she touched all over her body, and only found less than a hundred yuan in change.
Lin Jing showed the change to Luo Junjie, and said helplessly: "Oh, cousin Junjie, it's not that my cousin doesn't want to help you, I have so much money all over my body, it's really because I'm used to using mobile phones to pay, and I rarely bring money with me." ”
The plan was not implemented smoothly, Luo Junjie was a little annoyed, and said dissatisfiedly: "Sister, where is your mobile phone?
Lin Jing spread her hands and said, "Cousin Junjie, I'm very embarrassed, because the pocket of my clothes is too small, I put my phone in my bag, and the bag is at your house." ”
After listening to this, Luo Junjie was very unconvinced.
He looked Lin Jing up and down several times, and found that Lin Jing really didn't bring a mobile phone, so he gave up.
Lin Jing sighed lightly, she didn't bring her mobile phone, but she really hit it by mistake, and it really wasn't intentional for her.
When things got to this point, she could only persuade Luo Junjie: "Cousin, now that it's like this, you can only wait here alone, and the other person will go home to get the money, so do you choose to wait? Or do you choose to go home and get the money?"
Luo Junjie wanted to wait here and let Lin Jing go back to get the money, so that most of the electricity bill of 200 yuan was paid by Lin Jing.
However, he really couldn't bear to stand here stupidly in front of so many people, it was too embarrassing, too embarrassing, and even more embarrassing if he met other classmates.
What's more, he didn't lose the two hundred dollars at all.
Instead, when Lin Jing drove him in a tram and Lin Jing couldn't see him, he secretly transferred the two hundred yuan from his trouser pocket to the sock bucket.
The idea was to let Lin Jing pay the two hundred yuan for electricity, and the two hundred yuan that Deng Cuimin gave him, he kept it for himself.
Now his wishful thinking has failed, he can only choose to let Lin Jing wait here, he pretends to go home to get the money, and then takes out the two hundred yuan he just hidden, and comes over to pay the electricity bill.
The two hundred yuan, he was sure that he could put it in his pocket, but now he had to spit it out, he was really sad.
Thinking of this, Luo Junjie glanced at Lin Jing, and said very dissatisfied: "Sister, you wait here, I'll go back and get the money." ”
With that, he stomped his foot hatefully, and was about to walk out.
Who knows, the accident has come again.
As Luo Junjie stomped his foot so hard, the two hundred yuan that he had originally hidden in the sock bucket and was about to swallow privately was coincidentally pushed out and fell directly to the ground.
When Lin Jing saw it, she was immediately overjoyed.
Luo Junjie also felt that the money had fallen, and his heart suddenly chuckled, and the secret way was not good.
He hurriedly lowered his head and bent down to pick up the two hundred yuan, still secretly expecting it in his heart, hoping that Lin Jing didn't find out, otherwise, it would be embarrassing.
But who knows, Luo Junjie moved fast, Lin Jing moved faster, stepped forward to take the first step, picked up the two hundred yuan, and held it high.
Lin Jing couldn't stop laughing, and didn't try to expose Luo Junjie's little tricks, but pretended to be very surprised: "Hey, cousin Junjie, isn't this the two hundred yuan? It turned out that it fell into your socks, did your trouser pocket leak, so it slipped down your trouser leg, how you don't want to spend these two hundred yuan, so naughty!"
Luo Junjie looked at the elated Lin Jing, and was annoyed in his heart, but he couldn't have a seizure.
This time, he was really self-defeating and embarrassed.
Even though his emotional intelligence is limited, Lin Jing's current mood is so joyful that he can't hide his emotions at all, he immediately saw that Lin Jing saw through his little tricks, but he didn't expose him.
This feeling is really bad, it is better to be directly pierced by Lin Jing, pointing at his nose and scolding, so that he can go home and complain, saying that he was a mistake at all, but he was scolded by Lin Jing.
Luo Junjie stood in place, his face changing and changing.
Later, I still thought that he had a lot of classmates in the set, and if he was seen by his classmates, it would be a loss of face, but it would be a big loss.
So, he could only suppress the anger in his heart, squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying, and said: "Well, sister, you're right, let's hurry up and pay the money, and then go back, otherwise, we won't be able to catch up with the meal." ”
Luo Junjie was self-defeating and let Lin Jing have such a big fun, but she has always done things in moderation and doesn't like to make inches.
She smiled, handed over the two hundred yuan to the staff, took the payment list, drove the tram, and drove Luo Junjie back.
When Luo Junjie saw Lin Jing smiling, his heart became more and more ashamed and angry.
Lin Jing naturally saw it, and she didn't want Luo Junjie to continue to be ashamed and angry, but she couldn't hold it back, it was so funny, hahaha.
Although she couldn't hold back her laughter, she could guarantee that she would never tell anyone about it, after all, it was a mess, if she let Luo Junjie know that she told others, Luo Junjie would definitely contribute a lot of hatred to her.
Luo Jun was such a big embarrassment, and he felt that he had a handle in Lin Jing's hands, so on the way back, he was very honest and didn't say a word.
Until he returned home, he still changed from his usual way of talking, very taciturn, and looked sullen.
Seeing this, Deng Cuimin immediately stepped forward and said with concern: "Junjie, what's wrong with you? Why did you go to the market with your sister to pay the electricity bill once, and it became like this?"
When Lin Jing heard this, what Deng Cuimin said, why did it seem that she had bullied Luo Junjie, obviously Luo Junjie was self-defeating, she couldn't wipe her face, she couldn't get off the stage, what did she do?
Thinking of what had just happened, her smile, which had already faded, suddenly couldn't help but emerge again.
So, she said with a smile on her face: "Auntie, Junjie and I went to pay the electricity bill, everything went well, nothing happened, don't worry about it, Junjie is now in adolescence, and it is normal for his mood to be changeable, I also came from that time, it's okay." ”
However, the people present are not blind, seeing Lin Jing so happy, and Luo Junjie so low, such a big contrast, even if you think about it with your toes, you know that there must be something wrong with this.
However, if Lin Jing didn't say it, Luo Junjie didn't want to say it, and others wouldn't ask.
Deng Cuimin was the only one who thought that Luo Junjie was being bullied by Lin Jing, so she stiffened her face, dragged Luo Junjie and asked, "Junjie, what happened? You tell your mother, and your mother will call the shots!"
This is right, this is to think that Lin Jing bullied Luo Junjie, and want to give Lin Jing a little color?
As soon as these words came out, Luo Guohua and Bai Xiuling, Luo Qiuying and Luo Yumei, the faces of the four of them suddenly became unsightly.
But who knows, in the face of Deng Cuimin's questioning, Luo Junjie was very impatient.
He shook off Deng Cuimin's hand holding his arm, and said impatiently: "Didn't my sister say everything? Everything went well, nothing happened, I just had a changeable mood in adolescence, that's all, ask it, it's all so clear, what else to ask!"
That's right, what to ask, just ask him about the messy things he did, he's such a big person, do you want to lose face?
After that, Luo Junjie entered his room without looking back and did not come out again.
Deng Cuimin was inexplicably attacked by Luo Junjie, and suddenly felt a little inexplicable on her face.
However, Luo Junjie had already shaken off her hands and left, she could only smile at everyone awkwardly, and explained: "Hey, this child, when he reaches puberty, he is so emotionally changeable, leave him alone, and he will be fine after a while." ”
The others didn't say anything, so Luo Qiuying smiled in order to ease the atmosphere: "Yes, don't look at Jing'er being so obedient now, when she was in adolescence, she was the same as Junjie now, just wait for this time." ”
At this time, Luo Changping finally came out of the kitchen, smiled, and said, "The meal is ready, let's prepare for dinner." ”
When the crowd heard this, they got up one after another and went to the kitchen to serve food outside.
Luo Guohua and Bai Xiuling also got up to serve the food, but they were pressed down by Luo Qiuying and Luo Yumei one by one, and said with a smile: "Dad, Mom, you two just can't be idle, so many people are here today, where can you still let the two of you go over to serve food." ”
The number of people is powerful, and the meal is quickly served on the table, and everyone is seated, picking up chopsticks and preparing to eat.
At this time, a person suddenly ran in from outside the house.
Someone rushed in, didn't look at the others, looked straight at Deng Cuimin, frowned lightly, pinched his throat and coquettishly, and urged again and again: "Mom, Mom, I brought my boyfriend back, he is sitting in the car in front of our house at this time, I let him come in for dinner, and meet you and my dad by the way, but he is afraid of bothering you and my dad, I'm sorry, I won't come down, you can help me persuade him!"
The person who came was Luo Changping and Deng Cuimin's eldest daughter, Luo Dongyao.
Lin Jing looked at Luo Dongyao, and only felt that her cousin had really changed a lot compared to when she was a child.
When Luo Dongyao was a child, she had a clear soup and noodles, she was thin and weak, and she was very taciturn, she looked very delicate and well-behaved, and her sense of existence was very low.
Now Luo Dongyao is much more high-profile, wearing an apricot-colored chiffon dress, the collar is a V-shaped collar, the underwear can be vaguely seen, the skirt is very short, just able to cover the thighs, a big wavy curly hair dyed chestnut, with exquisite makeup, it is very bit of the temperament of the current Internet celebrity, quite swaggering and eye-catching.
Normally, Luo Dongyao rushed in so recklessly, and when she saw that there were elders other than her parents present, she should first say hello as a sign of politeness.
However, when the others saw that Luo Dongyao was so anxious and eager, they didn't care.
As soon as Deng Cuimin heard Luo Dongyao say that she had brought her boyfriend back, she stood up immediately, couldn't care about anything, and pulled Luo Dongyao to rush out, wanting to persuade Luo Dongyao's boyfriend to come down for dinner.
The reason why she is so enthusiastic is because Luo Dongyao told her that she had a friend on the Internet before, and the other party is not only from a big city, but also a boss, super rich, and very young and handsome, which makes Luo Dongyao a million satisfied.
In these years, even if the number of men is far more than that of women, it is really not easy to find a man with such conditions, especially listening to Luo Dongyao, that man is desperate and in love with Luo Dongyao.
When Luo Dongyao marries this golden beetle son-in-law, then their family will be able to keep the clouds open and see the moon, and turn over and overwhelm Luo Qiuying and Luo Yumei's family, which is proper, and they will finally be able to raise their eyebrows.
Thinking of this, can she not be in a hurry?
Luo Changping saw Deng Cuimin and Luo Dongyao rushing out, thought about it, put down his chopsticks, and went out.
The main family was not present, and Luo Dongyao just said that she wanted her boyfriend to come in to eat together, so the others couldn't move the chopsticks first.
Sitting bored, a group of people went out together, wanting to see what kind of person Luo Dongyao's boyfriend was.
Lin Jing walked out of the door, and saw a car not far to the left of the door, and there were already people around the street looking over with their heads turned to this side, with a raging fire of gossip in their eyes.
There is no other reason, the brand and model of that car are really too luxurious, and it is the first time that people have seen someone drive such a luxury car in this village, so they have to hurry over to see whose family it is.
When Lin Jing saw the luxury car, she immediately felt very familiar, and wondered where she had seen it.
But she thought about it carefully, and for a while, she couldn't remember.
So he gave up and didn't think about it anymore, just stood at the door with Luo Qiuying and Luo Yumei, watching Luo Dongyao pull Deng Cuimin to the luxury car, followed by Luo Changping.
When it comes to her boyfriend, Luo Dongyao originally had a proud and proud look, especially in front of her cousin Lin Jing, who has always pressed her since she was a child, and she held her head high, eager to face the sky.
She didn't believe it, with her boyfriend's conditions, even if Lin Jing found a good condition, could she still surpass her boyfriend?
