The man did not speak, and when he waited, the butler was still cutting the meat, and had already cut a small pile. He asked, "When will you cut my backbone?" ”

The butler stopped what he was doing, looked at the basket that the man had picked, and said that his face was yellow and his head was wrinkled: "He wants two baskets of meat, you wait, wait until I cut two baskets for him." ”

"Okay, then you hurry up." Men can wait.

When the steward saw the meat, he cut it in large or small pieces. Gradually, two piles were cut out, and the car board was stacked on a pile of scales. The butler looked, it was just enough for two baskets.

The housekeeper said, "Have you seen enough?" ”

"That's enough, cut some more." The face is yellow, and the head is folded, and the door is full of two baskets.

After hesitation, the housekeeper said, "Okay, I'll cut you some more." ”

The housekeeper dragged the meat down the knife to cut the meat, and sometimes the meat rubbed against the bones, and the sound was rubbing.

Soon the butler cut some more flesh and put it on the board, and he said, "What are these like?" ”

Look, the yellow-faced head is folded: "Okay, that's all, see if you don't like to cut?" When he had finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to the man, "The basket is stretched out, and the butler fills it with meat." ”

In response, the man carried two baskets on his shoulders, and stretched one basket towards the butler, and stretched it out in front of the butler.

"What's the hurry, haven't weighed it yet?"

The butler stepped back and pushed the basket a little, reached out and placed the meat on the scale, which could be set up a little longer. The housekeeper waved and said to himself: "Forget it, that's it, call it three times." ”

"Here, do me a favor, bring me the scales, and I'll get the scales." The housekeeper asked the yellow-faced man with a folded head to help him.

The yellow-faced man approached the housekeeper with a folded head, and he carried the scale with both hands and lifted it up vigorously. Pick it up, and the butler will make the scales underneath.

Without further ado, these meat stewards weighed the meat butlers three times with folds in their faces, weighed it once, calculated how much money the butler wiped zero, and put the meat in the basket after noting how much it was.

The two baskets were filled, and the butler weighed the money three times. The housekeeper said with a fold in the face and yellow head, the first two times were these, and the last time was less of these. Add it up, the butler's face is tilted towards the sky and winks.

After the calculation, the butler said the number. The housekeeper is calculating, and the one with a yellow face and a fold in the head is also calculating, and the addition and subtraction are easy to calculate, and he is the same as the housekeeper. After the calculation, he said: "The housekeeper has worked hard and cut this meat for me." He said and pulled out the money. Counted the money and handed it to the butler.

"What's the hard work?" The housekeeper took the money and stuffed it into his purse.

"The housekeeper is busy, so I'm leaving." The yellow-faced man with a folded head clenched his fist at the housekeeper, shook it, and turned around and called the man. "Ahh The butler sent the man with his fists.

The butler clenched his fists, smiled at the butler with a yellow face and a folded head, and separated from the man.

"It's time for me, right?" The man asked.

"It's your turn, you want a backbone, right?" The butler stepped forward and reached for the knife.

The man smiled slightly, "It's my turn, cut five catties of my backbone." The housekeeper went to the car to cut his backbone, and he said: "This meat is cheap, two copper plates a catty, otherwise I would have left early." ”

"I'm in trouble right now." The butler said as he cut his spine. The spine is not easy to cut, it is better to have an axe, and chop it directly with an axe. "What's wrong with you?" The man asked.

The butler looked at the carriage men, "They have come back from their work, and they have not yet ordered them to eat." ”

After speaking, the butler cut his backbone.

The people who looked at the carriages were all sitting in the carriages, and there were those who were leaning on them. This man doesn't know what to say, he's waiting for his spine? Let the butler order food, he will have to wait a little longer.

The spine is not easy to cut, and the housekeeper doesn't know what the trick is, he hasn't cut this thing, he doesn't understand. If he doesn't understand it, he doesn't know how to do it, so he went to see, "Where is the axe?" ”

The housekeeper spoke, and the man who bought the spine saw that the housekeeper could not cut it well, and he said, "The housekeeper uses an axe, and the axe is fast." ”

After listening to the guest's words, the housekeeper shouted at Qian Xiwu in the construction site: "Hey! Go and borrow me an axe, just chop wood, and I'll chop the spine of this guest. ”

Qian Xiwu looked back, there was no one in the courtyard, and he said, "Butler, the axe is still borrowed, just take it and return it." ”

The housekeeper is the housekeeper of the village government, and he has to tell people what he borrows, so what is the matter? He said: "You can talk to people's families, you can talk to your family, don't borrow things and don't tell others." ”

Qian Xiwu wanted to get up, he looked behind him and said, "I'll tell the maid?" ”

"It's okay with anyone, this shopkeeper, this shopkeeper and his old lady." The butler replied.

Qian Xi got up and looked behind him and said, "Then I will go into the shopkeeper's house and ask?" ”

"Okay, you can go into anyone's house and ask, you can go quickly." The housekeeper was a little anxious.

"Then I'll go to the shopkeeper's house and ask." Qian Xiwu got up, patted his waist, and walked towards the shopkeeper's house.

Qian Xi went five times, the housekeeper, the man, He Bufan, He Feng, and Fei Teng in the construction site, all looked. On the carriage, the people in the first two carriages also looked at it, and the people in the last two carriages did not pay much attention, sitting without knowing what to think, waiting for the housekeeper to call for food, and sometimes glancing at the housekeeper's construction site.

Walking out of the construction site and walking to the yard, Qian Xi went to the front of the shopkeeper's house, and the door was closed. Qian Xiwu raised his head, "Bang Bang!" A few knocks: "Open the door!" ”

"Bang Bang!" There was no sound in the shouting room, Qian Xiwu knocked a few more times, and shouted: "Open the door!" ”

There was still no movement in the house, and the fifth general of Qian Xi knocked down, he didn't knock, he reached out and dragged the door, and the door "Karma!" Pull it away. As soon as the door opened, he saw the shopkeeper sitting at the table with his old ladies and the maid standing on one side.

After looking at it for a moment, Qian Xiwu opened his mouth and said, "Are you all in the house?" ”

The shopkeeper and his wife looked at Qian Xiwu, took their eyes back, and did not say a word. The maid looked at Qian Xiwu and stood there.

"As if you don't want to talk to me?" After reading it, Qian Xiwu walked into the house. A teapot and a bowl were placed on the table, and he said, "The housekeeper asked me to borrow an axe, an axe for chopping wood?" ”

Seeing the teapots and bowls on the table, Qian Xiwu wanted to take a drink.

"What are you doing with an axe?" The shopkeeper asked after a moment's thought.

Qian Xiwu looked around at this room, and he said, "Ah, the butler borrowed an axe to chop the backbone, and he sold horse meat and chopped it for the guests." ”

"Go to the backyard and get him an axe." The shopkeeper said to the maid.

"It's the shopkeeper." The maid responded, glanced at Qian Xiwu and went.

The maid went, and Qian Xiwu blinked, "Then I'll follow?" ”

Looking at Qian Xiwu, the shopkeeper waved his hand and said, "Go ahead." ”

Qian Xiwu smiled, stepped back and said, "Excuse me." After speaking, Qian Xiwu turned around and walked out of the house.

Qian Xiwu walked out of the house, and the shopkeeper looked at it and said, "Go and close the door." ”

His wife got up and went and closed the door.

When his wife went to close the door, he got up and opened the cabinet next to him, and brought out the tray with fruit and sugar. When Qian Xiwu knocked on the door, the fruit and sugar were all in the tray, and they threw the candy paper and half-eaten fruit into the tray and put it in the cabinet by the shopkeeper.

The tray was put back on the table, the shopkeeper sat back, he took back the half-eaten fruit and said, "Don't let the worker steward see the food." ”
