Chapter 26: Calculation
They stopped at the door and looked at the two men.
Among them, the middle-aged man with leather gloves took the lead in smiling politely and said, "Excuse me, are you relatives of Xia Meng's family?" ”
Xia Hongying hesitated for a moment before nodding: "Yes, you are?" ”
Xia Hui's eyes were firmly fixed on the food in the net pocket, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
It was still this man, who smiled without answering the question: "We have been waiting here for a long time, it's quite cold, why don't you have anything to say at home?" ”
He Baojun guessed that this was probably the impostor's family, rolled his eyes, and immediately agreed: "Cheng." Na Yingzi, you quickly open the door. ”
Xia Hongying showed a hint of embarrassment and hesitation.
She was a little angry with Xue Mingyue and Xia Meng because of what happened just now, but the affection she had been with for so many years was also true.
The Qin family came over before, and the attitude of the sister-in-law was very obvious.
Now this ......
He Baojun pushed Xia Hongying calmly: "What are you rubbing!" Hurry up! ”
Xia Hongying couldn't say anything about it, so she had to silently step forward and open the door lock.
After entering the house and taking their seats, the two men quickly reported to themselves.
Sure enough, as Baojun guessed, they were all Qin Wenwen's family, one was an uncle, and the other was a cousin of his uncle's family.
As soon as they heard that He Baojun was Xia Meng's grandmother, after they just got out of the car this morning, their eyes flashed with ecstasy.
Originally, the purpose of their visit was to see if they could persuade Xia Meng's aunt to help be a lobbyist.
If my aunt is still one layer away, then my grandmother is the head of the family, and her words have a lot of weight.
"We know that the children in the family are doing something wrong, I'm sorry Xia Meng, and I don't want to go. But since it has happened, what about the university, even if you drop out, your granddaughter will not be able to go to school, is it more affordable to try to find a good solution to compensate you? We are here today with sincerity......"
These words touched He Baojun's heart.
That's what she thought, too.
But before Xia Meng and her mother didn't give her a chance to say more, they began to flirt with people.
She was old and refined, and she deliberately wiped her eyes without tears aggrievedly: "Your family is doing too much damage!" If it hadn't been discovered, I would definitely not have thought about compensating our Xia Meng or anything, so let's leave quickly with someone and something!
Moreover, we can't be the master of this, I said this before, and my granddaughter and daughter-in-law said it! ”
Qin Yisheng was obedient and listened, and also knew that there was a door, so he continued to flatter: "Auntie, there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, they have not yet dissipated their anger, they are angry, so they can't turn around, you have to help them master it...... As long as you help our family reach a settlement with them, in addition to Xia Meng's, your thank you fee is indispensable! ”
He Baojun's triangular eyes flashed with greed: "Are you serious? ”
Qin Yisheng hurriedly nodded solemnly: "Of course!" As he spoke, he pulled out a thick wad of unity from his coat pocket, "It's a lot more than that." ”
He Baojun visually measured that the thickness was two or three hundred yuan, and he was so excited that he almost agreed.
Xia Hongying was afraid that her mother would agree, and it would be even more difficult to deal with the relationship between them in the future, so she hurriedly pulled her arm: "Mom! ”
He Baojun shook her off fiercely: "Mom! ”
When he faced Qin Yisheng again, he smiled with a wrinkled face: "This is not a small matter, can you let my old lady think about it?" ”
Qin Yisheng nodded: "Yes, but you have to hurry up and give us an answer quickly." ”
"Don't worry, my old lady won't be on an errand, you will come over in three days."
After the two said goodbye and left, Xia Hongying was worried: "Mom! What are you doing here? Even if it is to give gold and silver, my sister-in-law will not agree to it, you have to take a big bag on your body! ”
He Baojun's voice was a lot louder: "Aren't I also kind? Seeing that Xia Meng's loss of money in college can't get on, why don't you take the opportunity to get more benefits? If you don't get it in the end, isn't that a big fool with a lack of strings? And what do you think my old lady is trying to do? It's not for your own good! I know that your family's life is not very easy, and if you put Dahui here, after a long time, no matter how honest your family is, you have to have an opinion......"
Xia Hongying actually thought the same as her mother, but she knew Xue Mingyue and Xia Meng, and it was too difficult to do this, but when she thought of the actual difficulties at home, her heart swayed from side to side.
"People are not stupid, they don't scatter eagles if they don't see rabbits, and they can't do it if they have my sister-in-law! If he hadn't been impersonated, wouldn't Xia Meng be okay in this life? Not only can you be assigned a job as a cadre after graduating from college, but you can also find a partner with good conditions in the future! ”
"You don't care, anyway, when they come in three days, I will naturally have a trick to get the money first."
He Baojun turned his back, smiling sinister and proud.
Anyway, her old lady got the money and patted her ass and left, as for Xia Meng, if they don't agree to others, then admit the money, but she can't tell her daughter about these calculations for the time being......
Xia Meng, how could they know what was going on behind their backs, it was quite surprising that He Baojun and they didn't come to the door again after that.
After breakfast, Xia Meng left home under the guise of going to the city to meet his classmates.
It takes more than 40 minutes to take the train from the Forestry Bureau to the city.
After getting out of the car, she carefully scouted before entering the space near the toilet, dressed up in disguise and went straight to the black market.
When he arrived at the remote alley, Xia Meng was pleasantly surprised to find that there were really people.
Now many things are supplied by ticket, and food and the like are not allowed to be bought and sold, and it is a crime of speculation to be caught.
Those who dare to sell on the black market are bold and open-minded.
After Xia Meng went around the market, he also had a general understanding of the price.
She then left the area, finding a safe place to take out a large basket of wicker woven from the space, covered with a layer of worn cotton felt.
It contained the pieces of meat that she had prepared in advance from the supermarket, as well as ten catties of rice.
When Xia Meng returned to the place where she was looking for a good place and put down the big basket for a while, she saw a well-dressed man walking in front of her.
She asked in a low voice, "Do you want your own pork?" ”
The man's eyes lit up: "How much?" ”
Xia Meng quoted: "A piece of five pounds." ”
The other party negotiated the price with her, and finally settled on two pieces and bought five catties.
When he saw that there was rice next to the meat, the middle-aged man immediately asked in surprise: "How is this sold?" ”
The small grains in the supply of grain only have one pound of rice per person per month, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Xia Meng had already inquired about the price just now.
The quality of the rice she took out was much better, so she directly quoted two pieces.
The man didn't bargain this time, and directly waved his hand.
After that, people bought meat one after another.
When it was almost sold, Xia Meng quickly slipped away.
She found a place and entered the space.
Rice and pork together sold for a total of one hundred and seventy-eight dollars and four cents.
Combined with the money she had before, she now has more than two hundred.
Now that the price is low, it is estimated that it is enough to go to the capital.
But how to cross the clear road at her mother's, she still has to think about it.
Xia Meng originally wanted to go to the department store in the city, but when he saw that it was very close to the departure time of the train, he dispelled the idea.
What she didn't expect was that after waiting for the train, she met someone she had a relationship with......
